with very little education, who had sud-

A German Opinion Of the Bennett
Law

Translated from The Milwaukee ,Abendpost.
Does the Bennett law interfere with any
OF the rights of the parochial school?
This question IS being seriously discussed
by the opponents of the law. They claim
that the law does interfere with che rights
of the parochiaI schools, while the defend
erS of it deny this in the most positive
manner. Let lis therefore examine the
matter. To arrive at a fair understanding
let us first inquire: What are the rights of
the parochial schools? The answer is,
they are:
/. The right of organization. Parochial
schools are organized by churches. Now,
does the Bennett law interfere in any way
with this right? Certainly not
2. The right to teach any religion. The
public school has no such right under the
law. Does the Bennett law interfere with
this right by word OF even by letter. Sure
~ not.
5. The right to teach any language or
any branch of knowledge. Do we find in
the Bennett law one point which in any
way questions or interfereS with this right.
By no means. In the parochial school. as
1t should be, any language on earth is per-
mltted to be taught.
4. The right to accept children who have
been taken away from the public school
by their parents. Is this right in any way
disputed by the Bennett law? Certainly
not. On the contrary the Bennett law
gives, in Section 2 every parent the right
TO nave his or her children educated
otherwise than in the public schools.
The above four points constitute the
leading objects for which the parochial
school is created and maintained. They
are therefore the rights of the parochial
school: Now does the Bennett law inter-
IeTe with any one OF these rights? Every
intelligent lawyer and every court will
most decidedly answer this question in the
negative.

SEATTLE, Dec. 10.-A decision affecting
the validity of the titles to many Thousand
acres of coal and timber lands entered in
this state was rendered in the United States
district court to-day. Three men who had
entered coal lands in this county made affi-
davits before notaries public that they had
made the requisite amount Of improve
ments on the claims. The men were,
however, indicted by the United States
grand jury for perjury. Their attorney de-
INJURED on the ground that notary public
was not authorized by the United States
statutes to administer the oath and hence
his acts would not be recognized. The
court sustained the demurrer and held that
q notary public was not q competent officer
to administer the oath and the United
States statutes do not recognize the notary.

He Seeks the Corruptionist's Place
to Boost the Candidacy
OF Alger.
Signal Failure Of tho Attempt-New Com
tract Labor Law-RauM and
Census Scandals.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.-There is story in
circulation here today purporting to come
from the inside history Of the recent repub-
lican attack on Senator Quay. Congress-
man bob" Kennedy, of Ohio, was put for
ward to give expression to the attack, but
the active although silent force behind him
was ex-Assistant Postmaster General Clark
son. The secret Of Clarkson's hostility to
Quay lies primarily in the Pennsylvanian's
refusal to join the movement for Gen. AL
gers presidential nomination. Another
reason is his desire to drive Quay from the
craftsmanship of the republican national
committee. This being accomplished he
would then secure the vacancy for himself
and bring the influence of the organization
to the support OF the Michigan candidate.
Az the story goes, Kennedy held his speech
several days. waiting convenient oppor-
tunity to deliver it. He attempted to make
it on one occasion, when Gov. Gear, of
Iowa. occupied the chair, but the
governor had been informed of Ken
nedy's purpose and refused to recognize
him. Chance favored him few days later
when Mr.. Burrows, of Michigan, tempor-
arily filed the speakers chair. Mr.. Bur

was coRnizant Of the scheme and was pre-
sumably a party to it, for it is matter Of
record that he permittad Kennedy to con-
tinue uninterruptedly when he might prop
erly at any time have ruled him out of
order.
Gen. Kennedy's diatribe did iniure Sena-
tor Quay to some extent among his party
associates, but it signally failed to drive
him from the craftsmanship Of the commit
tee. Senator Quay's intimate friends say
chat he has no intention Of laying down the
chairmanship Of the committee. and that
his friends on the committee are 90 largely
in the majority that his deposition is i'm
possible. Quay is opposed to the force
bill. and it would not surprise anybody il he
created a sensation in the senate one of
these days. He does not propose that Har-
rison and his little gang Of narrow w-headed
politicians shall rule and ruin the party.
Quay is game to his toes, and will prove ii
ere many days.
