The main interest centered 10 the re.
port OF Messcs. Pearce, Catch and
Hughes, The findings Of which were
discussed and acted upon by the
citizens present, all but two being
adopted and those Two being the most
important.
0The committee deserves a vote of
thanks for the fearless and Impartial
manner In which II performed dis
agreeable task, one upon which the
gentlemen spent considerable labor
and really worked hard 10 present un-
selfish views. though It's general tone
the community will not approve OF.
For Instance, the fundamental mis-
conception on which the whole report
is founded Is embodied 10 these words
OF the committee:
"Tbe 1Fst vital stand taken by all
this committee IL that the public
schools are, In no essential, n charity;
but strictly a business proposition,
based on the principle that 90 com
munlty can afford 20 allow children 10
grow up without the essential educa-
tion required 10 make them good aud
useful citizens.
"lt has also been agreed that the
well-tO-do eau. and generally DO, pro-
vide educatio u 90 their oiispripg, aud
thst she very primary principle on
which the public school system ID
founded, IL that the benefits OF the
public purse should 20 principally 20
children, who, from adverse condl-
tlons. would not be able 10 gain
proper education.
Whoever penned that last para
graph has totally mlsconcelyed the
situation. II there were no public

"Iroylde education. 10 their offspring"

dren Of those not "wcll-to-do." The
"well-to-do" would educate their
children and those not "well .to.do"
would be educated at charity schools
or grow up in Ignorance. Out OF such
a system would grow the social dis.
tInctions and the caste systems on
which the arlstocracles OF Europe arc
founded.
No one can realize, who lives under
the blessings Of a free school system,
how completely the public schools are
tho foundation Of our Dimooratle
institutions, whep the ehlldrer of an
