Saws the Springfield Republican:

1T was a young southern congress-
man who admitted that he voted TO
deny to Mr.. Roberts the right OF being
sworn In as a member Of the House
because Of the popular clamor. If l
were to take a stand antagonistic to
the wishes Of the great mass OF my
constituents in regard TO the Roberts
case he said, when the next cam
palgn comes on. / wouldn't get 300
votes in my district
Did he not speak for considerable
majority?

II ever there was a case Of swallow

occurs to me this Roberts case is GER
tainly one.
All over the country goes up a hypO-
critical clamor against the terribly bad
man from Utah.
What are the charges against hlm?f
He Is polygamlst
And is a poygamist a criminal an
outlaw and bad man in general?
AssuNdly, yes-unless he and his
wives have taken the precautlon To
avoid the little Formally Of marriage
ceremonies. In that event he is usually
a Christian gentleman, entirely eligible
TO seat In Congress and to a place In
the select circles OF society. He may
be a professed libertine and a leprous
prohigate; he may betray innocent girls
10 their ruin. wreck their lives and send
them by the score down the dark road
10 hell-yet he remains 'emlnently re-

sits in the cushioned chairs Of power

The resolutions of Antwerp pastors,
asking British pastors to pray for an
early cessation Of hostilltIes is likely to
be tabled indefinitely. One feature con-

made Of singing rule Britannia

MORAL RELATION.
One other thought in regard to the
county high school. 1t bears, not so
directly on It's relation to the present
educational system, as on its relation
to humanity. 1t certainly deserves
mention in this connection. / refer
to the fact that the great majority of
the boys and girls who graduate from
the common schools are by no means
old enough to resume the responsible
ty of going away from home, and hav-
ing no one whom they must obey out
of school hours. No matter how
they have far too little sense, or eX-
perience, or worldly wisdom, or what
ever you choose to call ito be
trusted with themselves. Youth has
not the power to resist temptation
that comes to maturer years. With
the restraints of home life exchanged
for the freedom of the club boarding
house, the lack of any stated talks
aside from their books, renders the
danger of the influence of bad COM
partnership too great to be riSked.
They are too young to be trusted with
much liberty. With county high
school at every county seat our young
people can be kept under home infiu-
enceS two or three years longer. Who
is for seeing enough to estimate the
benefits.
Briefly reviewed, then, the county
high school stands in relation to the
present educational system, and to
every one, as a necessity, as a wise
economy, as a possibility, as tested
experiment and proven success, as a
powerful factor of culture, and by the
removal of temptation from the path
of the unwary, as a strengthened and
nrOmOfar of Dublic morality
