The Public schools Must Necessarily
be Secular.


Rev. Newman Symth said last evening
that an editorial in the Register last even
ing somewhat uninterrupted portion Of
his remarks made at the celebration of
Foxefathers' day Monday night. The edi-
torial was headed Religion in the Schools"
and in one portion said:
sBut it is to his view in reference TO re-
Egious instruction in our public schools
that we take exception. We regard them
as retrogressive. He said:
The Roman Catholic churches of to-day
are more closely allied to the Pilgrims than
are the Professionals, for they insist their
children shall receive religious instruction
in their schools. believe it is our duty
to see that all the children of the people
receive religious instruction. If we do
not wish to see our social condition dete-
riorate and vice increase we must see that
our children receive religious instruction"
What DR.. Smyth said was that our pub
lie schools must necessarily be secular

At its meeting last evening. Freedom
assembly No. 1857, Knights of Labor,
adopted the following resolutions with
the request that the same be published by
the ARGUS aud other papers of the city:
"Resolued. That the board of education
of Rock Island is respectfully requested
to establish one or more free night schools
for the accommodation of those whose oc
equations prevent their attendance upon
the day schools.
''ResolOed. That the secretary be di-

The suggestion is good one as look.

ton to young men who may BY force Of
circumstances have been denied the sd
vantsges in the pas; and are not able
now because of being obliged to labor
during the day to improve their minds as
they would like to. The ARGUS has in the
past urged the plan of night schools for
Rock Island such as have been carried on
successfully in Davenport for years, and
1t most cheerfully endorses the resolutions
Of the labor assembly and urges upon the
board of education their serious, and IL
possible, favorable consideration.
