This ia what might BIO expected, he being
a citizen Of our State and the posssasor Of

In some quarters that COTS candidacy for

Blaine being the nominee for the Presi-

Gnrmnn I'm tho ,sohoolr.


After long fight, beginning years ago,
German has OF last by o popular vote
taken in St. Louis on Friday last boon dis.
continued IN tho public schools Of that
city. This result is all the more remarks
BILE from the fact that about one.half Of
tho population Of St. Louis is German
bora or OF German extraction. The dis.
patch announcing the result says:
An investigation Of the records showed
that $4,000 OF the 10000 school children
were taught German. Over one.halt Of
the $4,000 were in the first grade, children
from 6 to s years OF age. The percentage
decreased rapidly in the upper grades,
and in the eighth grade, which is next to
the high school, only per cent Of the pu-
pils took German. In the high school
only 9 per cent accepted the language.
The evidence tended TO show that as the
judgment OF the pupils developed interest
IN German aubsided. The general result
ofthe system was also open TO criticism,
II was found that the American child who
took German in every grade and finally
graduated had then only acquired amat-
tering Of the language. These facts
were brought prominently to the atten.
ton Of the public, and strong appeal was
made toF the expulsion Of German. The
Envllsh prees united on one side and the
GeFmsn prees on the other. The prlnCi.
nal argument OF the German press was
this: s'Nearly oue.hRH the population Of
81, Louis Is OF Teutonic origin. 1t pays q
heavy tax and Is entitled to some Consid.
Grafton: therefore 1t is but right that the
language should b0 taught In the public
eChools," The answer was: 1.-THE School
Board ia bankrupt. and 1t was reduced to
bankruptcy by attempting to foster Ger.
man. The common school system con.
temp!ated only the teaching oil English
bedrock studies; therefore German must
CO."
Casting all prejudice to one aide, there
can be no doubt that the people OF st.
Louis have done o wise thing. The re-
mark in the dispatch that "the common
school system contemplated only the
teaching Of English bedrock studies" tells
the whole case in 9 nut shell. AS this
paper has always commended, the common
school syntom was founded on this idea
and has It's only Qualification and strength
in this idea. 1t wsa never intended to
build up O fancy system Of any sort, but
to fit every child in the land for the Ordi.

The study of foreign languages Is alto

should not be taxed. Those who wish 70
acquire foreign languages, living or dead
have abundant opportunity to study them
at their own expense, and they have nc
more right to expect the general public
thus to educate them than 10 put then
