DAILY THOUGHT.
"The persistent purpose wins"
EASY To SETTLE.

In deciding tonight the question Of
reading the Bible in the public schools,
there is no occasion for any misun-
Outstanding, and the issue should be
settled fairly and intelligently. AS
usual, there are few people who do
not appear to perceive the real ques
ton. An effort 10 being made to
spread broadcast the idea that certain
citizens are opposed to the Bible, and
that the Bible itself has been attacked
by them. This 10 an error. No one
who objects to the reading of the
Bible in the schools has said o word
against the Bible itself, or is opposed
to reading the Bible, so far ~ is
known. The only objection is to read
ing it in the public schools, whers
young people are sent to be educated
independents of creed or cult.
No one, so far ~ can be learned,
objects to the Bible or the reading of
the Bible, and no one has said . word
against it, or intends to. The whole
issue is reading il in the schools,
where teacher. consciously or uncon-
soiously. may so conduct such reading
as to influence or interfere with the
religious teaching OF some of the
pupils. This latter 10 prohibited by
law, the injustice Of it in country
where all people are guaranteed re-
ligious freedom is apparent, and all
desired or asked IL for the rights of all
citizens under the law II these are
accorded by the board Of education.
in all probability there will be no
further controversy, and everybody
will be satisfied.

A New York college president in q
recent address, was moved to exclaim
I'VE are forced to believe that the
government of the people, by the peo-
pie and for the people for which the
fathers fought is today more of a
theory than . reality" This may be
true, but If il is It lie the fault OF
the people themselves. 1t has been
said that the people get as good a
government as they deserve. and il
they stay ct home and allow . few
politicians to run things when they
have so many opportunities to turn
out and take . hand in running
things themselves, they cannot justly
complain. And those college pro-
fessors who have so much to say on
the subject probably never take the
trouble to go to q convention or to
vote at an election.

A SECRETARY OF MINES.

The miners of the west are moving for a mining
officer in the cabinet-a department of mines with
secretary at its head says the Call 1t is doubted
whether congress will soon move in such matter.
The addition of cabinet departments is deliberate
process, and long time is apt to eapse between
events. The interior department was created about
1916, and Thomas Ewing was its first secretary.
No addition was made to the cabinet after that until
1889, when secretary of agriculture was provided
and Mr.. Coleman of St Louis was appointed. Then
there was skip until 1908, when Mr.. Cortelyou be-
came secretary of the new department of commerce
We would advise the miners to be mindful of the
law of evolution as applied to the cabinet depart
ments The interior department sprouted out of the
patent Office. The department Of agriculture sprang
from the bureau of agriculture in the interior de-
partment The department of commerce issued from
several strong bureaus that had risen under the aus
pices of the treasury. The miners should go on
talking about and urging department of mines
but they should see to it that strong bureau of
mines is at once attached to the department of CON-
merce The growth of such bureau, if it grow win
demonstrate the need of department quicker than
all the speeches and petitions on the subject. The
west should organize now for such bureau.
