You never will have a cause for which YOU

u. MI RANDALL If Freap0rt: Mr.. Sneak
er. may nave the privilege to speak the
third time? "
| The SPEAKER: If there is no objection.
the gentleman will proceed
| Mr.. RANDALL; | wish to call attention
to the fact that there is a resolve in favor
or bates College, and the gentleman from
Kockland advises passing this along to the
appropriations committee. He says that
then VIII be the proper time to discuss t.
| say TINS is the proper time to decide it.
You have got majority and a minority
| report, and this is the time to show the
| people OF the State that you do not want
| these institutions to come here for aid
This is the time to precipitate it if it is
precintatcd rs the gentleman from Cher
rNtield has stated He has said that Col
| by was indignant. They have no right to
| be Indignant
Mr.. CAMPBELL: INDECENT. Uaughterl.
| Mr.. RANDALL: l beg your pardon. He
saws this is an emergency. / take issue
! with him on that point. and | say that
this is the time that 1T should be tned
| down.
| Mr. THOMAS Of Topsham: Mr. Speak-
| er, | want to make one comment on the
| remarks Of the gentleman from Wilton
| tMr. Perkins,. While everyone has right
| to give their opinion. it seems to me en-
udlccS which do net enter into the queS-
| ton. The gentleman from Wilton allttdes
| to its being sectarian question. and Col
| by being a sectarian college. While | am
| ready to admit that it is a denomination
| al college | do not think it should be call
| ed under any circumstances n sectarian
| college; and it seems to me that there is
| quite a distinction between the two words
A denomirational college is one where any
denomination may start an institution and
! as far forth as they are able through their
Low nr~ti k.o Nat1S aud ll- nt
! the institution. "A scctarian institution. in
| the generally accepted term is one whore
! they teach particular creeds. Now l do
not understand that Colby or Bowdoin or
Bates or the University of Maine ever at
| tempted to teach creed. 1t seems to me
| rather unfair at this time to bring in that
question TO prejudice the minds of mem
| hers here on n matter of Sectarianlsm, for
| do not think il enters into this question
at all
| Mr.. OATIES of Auburn: Mr.. Speaker.
aluSiCn has been made to the matter If
| m appropriation which is called for for
| Bates College. | dpplorc the suggestion at
| this time because it is not under consider
alton properly by the House. Colby, it
seems to me, rs has been suggested.
stands on her own basis. She has her rca
son for calling for this appropriation. 1t
seems to me that Mt the present time the
| House would act wisely and logically If we
should adopt the suggestion that has been
made and simply pass on this particular
question in the particular way in which
| it is properly presented. and vote as to
| whether we will now refer this to the
proper committee. in it's regular order,
| and | hope at the present time the vote
will he passed to accept the majority re-
port instead of the minority report. so 1t
will 20 to the financial committee and have
a proper consideration at their hands.
