ed on to furnish this moral education for
100000 of our youth at the lowest esti-
mate, do not attend any Sunday school
ana those who do attend get only one
hour per week, which is wholly insufficient.
3. Nor can parents be relied on to furnish
this necessary moral education, for many
of them are not able, and many more of
them are not disposed, to give 1t.
4. The day schools must therefore be ems
listed.
). The morality taught. in order to be
eHective, must be- not a powerless, pagan
morality, but a morality with God and
judgment behind it.
This proposal involves no violation OF
religious freedom, because Ii is expressly
provided that any parent who desires may
nave his children excused from the study of
the Ten Commandments and assigned some
secular study instead. 1t is believed that
the vast majority of the parents would
prefer that their children be taught what
these proposals suggest. To refuse to give
them this teaching, which they consider
essential to the true education of their
children, on the plea that some may object
to 1t, would be, in effect, to establish a
tyranny of the minority over the majority
The demand which we make Is a cry for
justice; 1t Is a cry for the recognition Of
the rights of the majority to have their
cm!dren given that modicum of religious
instruction which they hold necessary to
give firm basis of character. II is also
cry for pity for those children-and they
are great multitude-who receive no moral
or religious instruction at home. :
Religious people, who constitute a lareei
majority of the community, believe that
their children ought to receive at least
this much religious instruction as part OF
their education, and, If this instruction is
withheld in the public schools they bex]
lieve public education is to that extent imS
perfect, and depriveS the children of one OF
the most important elements Of education.
to their lasting injury. Such exclusion of
even this elementary teaching is a wrong
to the religious people of the state, in 90
Tar as they are compelled to support the
public schools by the payment of taxes,
or to use them for the instruction of their
children, or to depend upon them for the
training of the citizens of the state or TO
maintain private schools to supply the de-
ficiency in this regard of the public
schools. Nj
The experience of generations has shown
that our present method of education is
defective in this respect 1t puts
the emphasis on the cultivation of the
method rather than on the DEVELOPMENT of /
character. 1t ignores the sound principle |
that If you want a harvest you must sow
the seed; If you want moral living, you
must teach morals.

RELIGIOUS INSTRUCTION.
The Real Issue of the Public School
Question Stated.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Much of the discussion In the public press
on the subject of moral and religious in
struction in the public schools exhibits
grave misunderstanding of the question at
issue Let not the public be misled. There
is no proposal to teach theology or any
form of sectarianism. All the religious
teaching asked for may be put into four
lines, towit:
Me-
Thou shalt not make to thyself any
craven image to adore it..
Thou shalt not take the name of the
Lord thy God in vain.
Thou shalt remember the Sabbath day
to keep it holy
This is absolutely all that is asked for
in the way of religious instruction, unless
the board in their wisdom, see fit to adopt
a brief exposition of the meaning of these
four commandments The other six COM
mandments pertain entirely to mans duty
to his fellow man and involve no theological
proposition whatever.
Let it be observed that no new PROPOSE
ton, no innovation, is involved in the pres
ent proposals, because the existing rule No.
46 requires the inculcation of obedience to
the commandments of God without specify
ing what they are. 1t also requires the in
culcation of the moral virtues by the teach
ers. What the board of education is to
decide. then, is simply this: Shall the chill
dren be taught the Ten Commandments,
with or without comment, as the board
shall order? Shall they be taught to love
God and to love their neighbors as them
selves? Shall morality be taught by Sc
lected text books? Shall an effort be made
to secure a series of lessons from the Bible
which Roman Catholics and Professionals
and Hebrews could all accept instead of
leaving the selection to the individual
teachers as at present? But the gist of the
whole controversy narrows itself down to
this, shall the first four of the ten COM
mandments be taught? About the rest of
the proposals of the conference, there is
practically no difference of opinion.
The argument in favor of the above pro-
nosals has been suceincfIy stated In these
five propositions:
l. In order to obtain social security and
good citizenship the state must see to It
that the young receive moral as well as
mental education

METHODISTS 10 MEET
ANNUAL ASSEMBLING OF BALTI-
MORE CONFERENCE.
Important Matters to Be Considered
Probable Change in Pastors-Dr.
MAYORS Statement.

Members and pastors of the thirty
Methodist Episcopal charges in the Wash
ington district, twenty-three of which are
within the city limits, are interested in the
coming 121st annual meeting of the Balti-
more conference in this city, because of
the possibility of changes in many local
pastorates. While Rev.Dr. Henry r. Naylor,
presiding elder of this district and the man
who makes recommendations to the pre-
siding bishop of the conference would not
say to a Star reporter today that important
changes were contemplated, he did intimate
that almost anything was possible and
even probable. One change, made neces-
sary by some unforeseen circumstances,
might set things going, he said, like the
touch of child on row of standing
blocks, and in that case the outcome
would be very uncertain.
Il am not at liberty to tell you just what
pastors are likely to CO." said DR.. MAYOR,
''but do not think there will be more local
changes than usual. This is always rather
trying time for Methodists. We can't tell
lust what is coming. Bishop David H.
Moore of Portland, Ore, who is to preside
at this conference might see fit to make me
the pastor of a church instead Of presid-
ing elder.
thing like that do your he was asked.
II am not expecting it," he replied, but
one cannot tell.
Change in Conference Lines.
DR.. Naylor said that very important
matter which this conference will have to
decide will be whether or not 1t Will Join
with the Virginia and Wilmington confer
ences in arranging for transfer of the
northern part of the Virginia conference, In
two portions to the Baltimore and Will
mington domains.
The Virginia conference has just asked
for the appointment of commissions OF f1ve
members each by the other two bodies to
confer with a like number of representa-
tives of its own on this question. The
northern Virginia Methodists believe that
they can gain a greater impetus for their
work by changing their allegiance in this
manner This is largely due, 1t is said, TO
the geography of the sections.
The Baltimore conference will convene at
O'Clock next Wednesday morning in the
Foundry NJ E. Church, 10th and Madison
streets northwest. 1t will continue for
about week, or until all of its business Is
completed program full of interest has
been arranged. There will be many inn
portant addresses and business meetings.
Bishop Moore will preach at IL o'clock
Sunday, April 2, and in the afternoon OF
that day the ordination of deacons and ell
derS will take place.

Soon thereafter he was transferred to
position on the general staff of the army
of the east. In this capacity he distinguish
ed himself in the battle of Barranca SEGA,
where he received a wound in the leg, and
also in the battle of OriZaba when the
French, after defeating the left wing of the
Mexican army at the Cerro del Borrego
made a sortie from the city of Orizaba for
the purpose of attacking the Mexican van
and were repulsed.
In recognition of his services he was pro-
NOTED to the position of captain of infan-
try on July To- 1862.
Early in 1868 he was transferred to the
staff of the reserve division of the army
commanded by Gen. Miguel Negrete. In
this capacity he served during the siege of
Puebla by the French and won the right
to be exempted during the whole of his life
from all direct personal taxation, as well
as the medal created by Congress in de-
erees of May and June ii, 1893.
When the city of Puebla was occupied by
having escaped he again placed himself I'M
der the orders of General Negrete, the COM
mander of the new army of the east as
well as governor and military commandant
of the states of Puebla, Vera Cruz and
Tlaxacala. The position of young Azpiroz
under General Negrete was that of field
adjutant. In that capacity he took part In
the campaign of Sierra of Puebla and in
the successful defense of Huauchinango
against the French.
General Negrete rewarded the services of
AzpiroZ by promoting him to the position of
commander of battalion June 10, 1869,
an appointment that was confirmed by the
president of the republic October 81 of the
same year.
But while active in the strenuous military
operations of that period Senior Azpiroz did
not neglect his favorite study of law, and
