THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

An Address of the National League for tho
Protection Of American Institutions.
NEW YORK Dec 5-The National
League for the Protection of American
Institutions has issued the following
address to the public in defense of the
American common school system:
The practice of nations in the support OF
schools where the union OF church and state
prevails furnishes no precedent for the
United States. We are not looking TO
monarchies for instruction concerning
the best training OF youth to mt
them for citizenship in this republic. Popular
suffrage here rests for its safe exercise upon
the character and intelligence Of all classes Of
the people. The republic for its own preserva-
ton has established and must insist upon main
tanning free common school system Of educa-
ton 1t must be maintained without comprO-
mise II is the only institution capable OF con.
verting the dangerous heterogeneous elements
of our population into a safe homoge -eous citi
zenship.
The tax for the maintenance of public schools
levied upon all citizens whether they have chill
dren /, educate or not is for the public good,
and not for private benefit The state opens its
scho Is with equal advantages to the children
OF all its citizens Its laws make no distinction
as to the creed OF the individual in the choice Of
its teachers In New York state no cOmpul
sorry law exists, requiring the attendance OF
children upon the common schools of the state
The state does not deny the right Of parents,
organic atoms or churches to establish and
maintain private parochai schools at their
own expense.

in New York state for the division Of the pub

mainly in view selfish and not pub
lie ends is shown by the fact that
the movement is being pushed al
most exclusively by single religious de-
nomination which fer many years, by its chief
authorities, has been assaulting the pub lc
school system few OF its more liberal rep
resentatives have tolerated the system and
have sought in many ways to control it Every
compromise. however, between sectarian and
public schools which has previously been tried
has invariably resulted in the humiiating sur
