America are going out to help weyler in

4 very interesting case will be argued
Sefore the supreme court OF appeals at its
citing in this city next month. The case
involves the right of the public school
authorities to have the bible read in the
public schools.
For about two years there has been a
contention between John Kennedy and
me trustees OF the Bo0thville, Marion
county, publIc school. Mr.. Kennedy is a
Roman Catholic and objected to the
reading OF the bible in the school. to
which he was sending his children. The
trustees arranged to have the Kennedy
children in another room while the open
ing exercises. Including the bible read
ing were going on.
IT'S alleged by the school trustees that
the kennedy children behaved 80 badly
tina. It was necessary to expel them. Al
All events they were expelled. In March
last Kennedy got from the supreme
court Of appeals writ Of mandamus or
derlne the school board 10 dispense with
the IG1QlnE Oh AllE bAgAI aA t'A~ %Ss-A
vile school. This the board has not done,
for which reason the board is to appear
before the supreme court TO show cause
why it has not done so.
The case has been taken up by the
Junior order Of American Mechanics in
this state. The officers OF the state coun-
ell have resolved to supply whatever
funds may be necessary 10 enable the
board to make stout resistance to Ken
nedy's effort to drive the bible out OF
their school.
The Junior orders all over the state
viii be appealed to 10 strengthen the
hands OF its officers in this matter. II
70 said to be the desire Of this order to
meet the issue squarely on It's merits and
% settle conclusively the question
whether any school board can be COM
PEELED by law to put the bible out Of the
public schools.

THE REAL TROUBLE

New York Mail and Express: An ip-
pressive arraignment OF CleVelandism
is presented by President Dorman. OF
the Gilbert Manufacturing Company OF
this city. which made an assignment
yesterday for the benefit of its Credi-
tors. Mr.. Dormnn declares that the fail
ure Of the company was caused by the
Wilson German tariff. and he supports
his charge with the statement that the
business OF the Arm has steadily de-
clined since the adoption OF that meas
ure. He contends that its trade has
fallen away from s., 900 900 or more In
lS9? to 100000 last year, that is cap
itaI and surplus, amounting TO $4,000.
have vanished under the pressure OF
hard times, and that these conditions
have been brought about by the para
lyzlnE tariff policy OF the last admin
istration. This is an accusing exhibit.
but II IL probable that other business
establishments could bear similar testl-
mony TO the baleful effects OF the VIII
son.Gornan bill II they felt disposed.
Coming at a time when the principal
author OF that Ubiquitous measure Is
publicly exploiting Il as the sum OF all
wisdom as a matter OF revenue policy,
the statement OF Mr. Dorman virtually
amounts 10 n direct charge OF hypoe-
risy and fraud.

The senate finance committee has not
improved the wool schedule as proposed
by the house. Instead of making the
duties or high class woods II and L.
cents a pound, these woods are to be du-
table at and cents a pound. These
are the woods we produce and. under SUI
flclent encouragement. can produce in
quantities TO supply our needs.
The proposed senate duty on carpet
woods is a large increase over that pro-
posed by the hause. The duty on a
pound Of carpet wool will range from 4
cents to : cents a pound. This is the wool
which We do not produce in this country.
1t is very well to put on carpet wool a
duty high enough to catch the so-called
carpet woods that come in for clothing
purposes, but this should not be done at
the cost Of adequate protection on the
higher class woods.
We doubt very much whether duties OF
s cents and . cents a pound Will prove to
be such protection as win stimulate the
rapid increase OF hocks to produce cloth
ing and eombinG wooIs.

When Dunlop. formerlypublisher ofthe
Chicago Dispatch, was left a: the Joliet
psison the receiving officer assured him
Ina, he would be treated with as much
consideration as the law permits. This
prison officer does not seem TO under
stand his bushes. Why should Dunlop
he treated with special consideration?
He goes to prison for the ioathsome Of
fence OF publishing obscene literature.
he is entitled to a very much longer term
than he gets. being sentenced to two
years imprisonment Dunlop did not
publish one piece of obscene literature,
he published obscene literature Of the
very raukie4t character every day in the
week
Not only were the publications often
slve in themselves. but they had to do in
great part with grave oHenscs against
the law and decency. Perhaps Dunlop
found no special enjoyment in these pub
locations. They brought him money and
money was his ideal. He has done socI-
rty much greater harm than man who
picks a pocket, or. under some c!rcum-
stances. n man who cuts throat.
OF course prison authorities should
treat all prisoners alike, but certainly II
any discrimination is to be made it
should not be in favor OF 50 vie crca-
ture as this man Dunlop.

Tn. Treaty.

The friends OF the arbitration treaty In
the senate lacked four votes of the two
thirds necessary for the ratification OF
the treaty. The longer It hung fire the
less chance It had. Some Of the COM
men,s By the British press had good
deal to do with raising In the senate a
feeling OF hostility To the treaty; some
thing was due TO the stand taken by Eng
land in the trouble between Greece and
Turkey.
A good many senators took the ground
