GODS HAND IN HISTORY,

Prof. Willis NJ. West of the Univer-
sity of Minnesota is bit of a his
torian who has compiled book of
his own for use in the public schools.
We have never seen it, but e Is said
by writer in the Milwaukee Citizen
that Prof. West reproduces with fidel-
ity every fabrication told by lying his
torians against the Catholic Church.
Prof. West recently delivered a lee
ture in which he dogmatically assert
ed that it is absurd to trace the hand
of God in history and that God was
at Gettysburg just as He was at a
prize fight"
Such an utterance from a member
of the faculty of the University elicit
ed prompt reply. from President Cy-
rus Northrop, who said that the his
torian who looks for the hand of God
in history will find it.
There are many kinds of history,
some true and some false. Macaulay
wrote a lengthy essay on History"
and then wrote history of England.
Suffice to say that it is never quoted
by any reputable historian. James
Anthony F'roude wrote history
which has been regulated by the crit
les for it's inaccuracies. 1t is nothing
less than a romance saturated with
bigotry. Hume's history of England
is seldom read save by infidels and
agnostics. He never saw the hand of
God in human events any more than
does Prof. West.
We have no desire to say anything
unjust of this University lecturer. He
is not alone in his shallow views. AS
a private citizen he is entitled to his
capacity as an Instructor of youth in
an institution supported by the State
of Minnesota, a decent respect to the
opinions of citizens of every Christian
denomination should restrain him
from uttering such pernicious nom
sense. Every orthodox Christian, like
President Northrop, will take issue
with him. Every man who accepts the
Bible as the word of God will believe
that "the Lord fought for Israeli in
the days of Joshua. Every reader of
the American Declaration of Indepen-
dence and of the Revolutionary War
will see the finger of God in the af-
fairs of this nation. The signers of
the immortal Declaration express "a
firm reliance on the protection of Di-
vine Providence Washington was
seen on his knees praying for divine
aid in the gloomiest days of the War
of Independence and his petition was
heard by the Almighty. Any man of
Christian faith will see the hand of
God in the history of the Civil War,
which preserved the Union and sup
pressed human slavery. God was at
Gettysburg on July 4, 1863. History
is perverted by Prof. West. He ought
to be filling a chair in ROckefeller's
Chicago university where he would
feel more at home than in the Uni
versity of Minnesota with Cyrus
Northrop at its head.
Prof. West is the man who wanted
to fill DR.. c.. NJ. Jordan's shoes as
superintendent of the Minneapolis
public schools At the Saturday
Lunch Club he was eloquent in criti-
cising the imaginary imperfections of
that veteran educator 1t is we'll that
he was not chosen for his position.
He ought to study the philosophy of
history instead of dry facts and dip
deeply into the subject. His brain is
intoxicated by superficial knowledge.

Costello read certificate from Doc

forth that Bush is in a serious condi-
tion from valvular disease of the heart,
that he, can not undergo any great
mental or physical exertion. such
would bring on sudden heart failure,

sets forth the same conditions and
adds that any physical or mental @eX-

his life.
Under the circumstances" said Cos
tello, '.the hearing of these charges
should go over to some time when the
accused shall have sufficiently recov-
cred to undergo the ordeal of a trial.

board, suggested that the case go over
to July IS. which was acceptable to
Costello. who said that there was no
desire on the part of Bush to evaGe
the issue.

board continued Costello, Ito the fact
| that, while it has the right to try a

| right to suspend him pending trial, as
| was done last week in this case. That
was we'll settled in the case of McKin-

He has drawn his salary for june"
| said Assistant Clerk Hoe.
| There may be question of law as
/ to this suggested Hayden.
| Let me ask You, Mr. Costello" asked
President Bannerman, if more
heinous charge was pending against a
| teacher, would not the board have the
right to suspend the teacher pending
| a trial?
1T would not replied Costello;
| this is a statutory board which has
| specific powers conferred u3on it. and
nowhere in the law is it given power
| to suspend. That is what Judge Hunt
held
Hayden then suggested that new
/ citation should be issued and asked
Costello if he would accept service for
his client
| This Costello declined to do. but said
| that his client will not avoid the trial
and will be on hand when he can

sombrero type.
I'm making this trip for notoriety
and money. I'm dickering with three
ma gaines, and the guy that comes

say about when 1 start. If they don't
come through strong enough I'm going
TO make the trip on my own hook. for
its the notoriety I want. can pay my
expenses doing stunts with my lariat.
I'm the Montana girl, you know. and,
gee, but perhaps I amt glad to be on
