The Bennett Law.

The Bennett Law has become an is
sue in Wisconsin, and the fall election
will be fought on that line. The
Democratic demagogues have chosen
to array themselves against American
ism and education and they will meet
the Waterloo that always overtakes
the rebels. The obnoxious section of
the law, which has aroused this hos
tility, is this:
mo school shall be regarded as a
school under this act unless there
shall be taught therein as part of the
elementary education of children.

United States hirtory in the English

IN an address made by Gov. Hoard
last week at the State Teachers Asso-

Il know of an instance i'll Jefferson
county where young man, twenty
six years of age, has lived all his life
within sight of district school, yet
he has never attended that school and
is unable to make himself understood
in English. lie has attended the
church school and can read and write
in German. Who is To blame for this
young mans ignorance of the Ian
guage of his own country! Have his
parents, the pastor, or the church,
who entered into the conspiracy to

There are townships in the State
where the town records have been
kept in German for years, To the utter
destruction of all validity or legality.
Every act or tax levied is Illegal be-
cause of such a state of affairs. In

sin who are not sent to school. What
man, who has the instincts of an
American, can approve of or take
pride in this condition. How con-
temptible is a party that espouses the
growing up of mass of illiterate,
ignorant human beings. How utterly
un-American is this position. In the
end the Democratic demagogues viii
be forcibly reminded that the English
language must be used in Wisconsin
as long as it remains in the United

Census enumerators appointed to
make the census are required to take
an oath that they will perform their
duties faithfully. They are liable to
a fine of $4,000 and three years inn
prisOnment, beilg punishable by the
United States authorities. This
means that no man appointed as an
enumerator will dare return a single
false name on the list. The supervis-
or is placed under the same restric-
tions. And the law goes still farther
than this, and makes every house
keeper amenable to the same law if
he refuses to give or fails to give ac-
curate and complete answers to the
questions asked by the enumeration.
This is done in order to secure the
most thoroughly reliable and accurate
returns possible. The enumeration
will begin on the first day of June,
and in cities close in fifteen days, and
in the country districts in thirty days.
