EDUCATION AND DEMOCRACY,
LATTER DEPENDS UPON FORMER


Franz M. Buckley, A. NJ, superin.
,endenf OF the schools of Ansonia was
given a hearty welcome as he was pre-
sented by President Haviland to speak
upon Education and Democracy. He
said, THE suffrage is the power of life
and death over state" When the
venerable publicist uttered these words
he enunciated g. truism which is at
the basis of all representative govern
ment The foundation stone of de-
mocracy is its electorate, and for veal
or woe thu very essence of a demo-
cratic government lies in the absolute
power Of the people. Our fathers de-
rived their government from self-evi-
dent truths which were written as with
q sunbeam on the whole volume of
Divinity itself. Life liberty and the
pursuit Of happiness are mans I'M
alienabfe rights and these are best
secured by government that derives
it's powers from the consent OF the
governed. The founders Of this gov
eminent wisely foresaw that If suf-
rage was basis to the life OF de-
mocracy, suffrage itself must guard
against enervation by depositinga 1T
self upon the unahakable foundation of
popular seducAtion. Since the peg
petuation Of every scveriszneM rests
upon the. education of it's leaders. the
preparation OF this democracy, where
the people. themselves are leaders, rests
upon a general system of education
that shall aim to educate at public ex-
pense all the children Of ali the peo-
pie In, representative form of gov
eminent 1t becomes increasingly evil.
dent that freodom and ignorance are
Incompatible, and that popular govern
ment without popular education cannot
permanently endure.
Education a Necessity.
Citizenship In this republic means
participation in a government OF lib
erty under law or government founded
upon the basit principles of Justice
wherein the attempt IL made to render
to everyone his due. 1t follows that
our government in the last analysis
il founded In the Individual will and
shall stand or fall as the will dictates
BY reason OF this very fact the safe
and proper direction Of the public will
become Imperative and the education
Of all the citizens become an absolute
necessity. The hope and destiny Of
democracy are inextricably bound up
with the proper direction OF the minds
ana consciences OF the masses. Uni
the monarchiaE forms of government
which rests upon the Intelligence of
the few; hut in a democracy with the
sovereign power In the hands Of the
people, since they must have full
knowledge Of their riTllts and cor
responding understanding of. their
duties, It Is q social Necessity: II. be-.

liberties. the strong hold OF our laws.

CHANGE OF CONVERSATION
(By j. w. Keltner.)

One who travels much cannot
but notice the change in general
conversation in regards to intoxi-
cants. A few years ago there APP
peared to be few business men
who were willing to talk about the
economic advantage of pronibi-
ton and local option. 1t was often
sheer at the long haired temper
ance reformer and a joke at the
expense Of the total abstainer.
Occasionally one hears such re-
marks yet, but he also hears manu-
facturers boast that local option
has kept their employers sober
and made the factory's output
bigger and better.
The following is taken from an
interview with Mr.. Carnegie with
reference to the Liquor in Bust
ness.
1t is said that Andrew Carnegie
has added ten per cent to the
wages of the employees on his
estate in Scotland on condition
that they become total abstainers,
Desiring to secure a personal
word from Mr.. Carnegie as to the
truthfulness Of the report, a
writer asked him if such is the
case and also to inform him what
measure of success had followed
this policy. In reply, Mr. Carne-
gle said:
"Men are not required to be
total abstainers, but all who are
can obtain from me a gift equal to
ten per cent of their wages, with
my best wishes, upon stating that
they have abstained for a year. l
consider total abstainers worth
ten per cent more than others,
especially if coachmen, yachtsmen
or men Of charge Of machinery.
Indeed, prefer them for all situa-
tons. American Issue
