WILL STAND BY THE SCHOOLS.
Several resolutions presented by thecom-
mittee on education We're adopted. They
said any person or power that threaten the
integrity or existence OF the public schools
IS an enemy Of the Republic; that we will
jealously watch and Loyalty guard them
and whenever they are assaulted we will
defend them without malice, bigotry, fear
or compromise; that the national lam
guage must have precedence and mastery
in the national schools that all partisan
political control and all seciarianisin in the
management and teaching of the public
schools, and all evidences in the structures
used OF in the CARDS OF teachers that would
suggest sectarianism or hint at the re-
hottest connection of church and state
must be banishcd; that we will exhort our
people to exert themselves to defend
national state, county and municipal
treasures against all attempts or pretexts
for the division Of the sacred funds which
they held for the support of public schools.
The remainder of the morning was con
sllmed ~ hearing reports from other com.
