prigs Pra,e of Patriotism.

(From the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.)
President Eliot and Prof Norton, OF
Harvard. have seized upon an unpro-
pitious opportunity to air priggish ideas
of public obligation. Not content with
holding in silent contempt the land that
supports them and the institution for
which they stand, they would pour the
poison of their Tory principles into the
minds intrusted to their instruction. 1t
is sin against Americanism as unparal-
leled a it is inexcusable-a crime against
citizenship as surprising as base. 1t
meets, as it deserves, the condemnation
and contempt of people whose love of
country is second only to their reverence
for God
The dictates of decency would seem to
have forbidden from President Eliot the
declaration before students that the coun-
try does not know what it is fighting for
Such sentiment from such a source un-
der such circumstances is in wretched
taste. Nothing milder expresses it. In
deed and in truth it is an insult to the
nation and an offense to each individual
member of it,
A more shameless utterance from such
eminence could hardly be conceived. Yet
Prof. Norton has eclipsed this infamy in
the same connection. Traducing the Gov
ernment is short of satisfying the shallow
soul of this censor exalted in superior
wisdom. He must vent his sapient spleen
upon the race disgraced by his kinship.
In the mind of the manikin among men.
there. are few gentlemen in the United
States" And this gracious parasite upon
public benefaction adds the further gra-
tuitous insult to his betters, to wit Il
feel, like Sir Horace Walpole, that l could
be proud of my country were it not for
my countrymen."
