ject to the laws governing common
schools. If the department is not
to operate as a common school how
can it receive the benefits of funds
which can only be lawfully applied
to common schools"

pose the school authorities may have
desired to use the additional funds
arising from naturalization fees.
There is no law authorizing the col
lection of such fees as condition
of admission to the common school
department or remaining therein"
This decision was rendered about
a district school that was being
operated under the McMichael law.
1t has been we'll settled that every
child in Georgia is of right entitled
to free tuition.
Mr.. Moon of the State Board of
Education has published that it only
cost our children rs cents each year
for school books. He is a member
Of the State Board of Education and
ought to know. AS our people are
now selling cotton at 6 cents and
buying the ever changing school
books, want any man in Georgia
that believes this to let me know and
I will send him the 25 cents. 1t is
possible the education of a child
cost more today for books and tut
ton than ever before If you will
be in Atlanta next summer you will
find the we'll known lobbyist of the
school book trust strutting around
the capitol. 1t seems like the irony

ANSWERS THE QUESTION AS TO
THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

@1N your last issue is a question
III from a Georgian" in re-
gard to the right of a child
z in Georgia to admission to
the Common school, and the
right of those in authority to COM
pei the payment of any money be-
fore they will accept a pupil.
This has been settled in Georgia
by several decisions of our Supreme
Court, but I will only quote from
Wilson ct al VS.. Stanford ct al, in
the 133rd Ga, page 483, as follows:
"The authorities in. charge of a
pubic school conducted in a dis
trict under the general laws of the
State as a part of the school system
thereof can not lawfully require pay
ment of naturalization fee by schOl-
ars as a condition Of their admis-
sion to such school, or remaining in
attendance thereon"
If the school authorities receive
any money from the State that is
appropriated as a common school
fund, then every child within the
age as prescribed by the act is en-
titled to attend the school
It was also ruled in this deci-
sion, THAT a private school can not
establish a Common school depart
ment" in a school district, make an
arrangement by which it gets for
such department" the benefit of
the common school fund of such dis
trict, in lieu Of the establishment of
a separate common school, have the
teachers paid by the Board of Edu
cation of the county and vet claim

The Democratic Administration
ApprOpriateS Public Money
For Foreign Missions!

Il J IT is a violation Of law to receive at
>A| Washington an Ambassador from the
italian Church
This evil precedent was set by Grover
Cleveland, and it has been followed ever
since.
At present, the Italian Church is repre-
sented at Washington by John Bonzano, and
Johns business, In part, is to tell American
Catholics that they must sacrifice their poll
teal convictions to the foreign Italian
Church which has declared it's intention to
conquer our Government.
John Bonzano. the Ambassador of the Ital-
ian Church, expressed himself to the effect
in letter he wrote to Thomas Carey of Kan
sas
a. It is a violation of law for Congress
to allow Roman Catholic teachers in the In
dian Schools, without the examination re-
CURED by our Civil Service and wearing the
religious regalia and paraphernalia of the
Italian Church.
(3.) 1t is a violation of law for the Gov
eminent to supply teachers, and military
equipment to Roman Catholic church schools,
which are controlled exclusively by for
eigner, to-wit-the Italian Pope
az It is against the law for Congress
to support Roman Catholic church institu-
tions in Washington City, said institutions
refusing to allow any inspection and control
by any other authority than that Of their
foreign church.
(5.) It is against the law to appoint as
officers in our Navy priests who take an oath
of allegiance to a foreigner.
Those Romanist chaplains, by a recent Act
of Congress, have been made officers in our
Navy.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1914-11-12

AS priests, they are atqader oaths of alzegi-
ance to the italian Pope.
(6) Our Government has now taken an
other step in the direction of lawlessness and
Union Of Church and State
1t has appropriated 1915, 900 Of your money
to Foreign Missions.
Rub your eyes, my son: it is hard to be-
heve, but it is fact
One Of your ships, the Scorpion, was sent
to Turkey with 100000, and the North Caro-
t!q1a was sent to Alexandria, Egypt to carry
$4,000 in gold for distribution under Am
bassador Morganthau.
What is your opinion of that kind of thing?
This is the sort of lawless extravagan which
necessitated those new taxes.
Those foreign missionaries who are run
ming those colleges in Turkey are living like
lords at the expense of our churches
The climate in which these missionaries
dwell is as fine as earth affords.
There is not more delightful place to
live, in all this world, than Asiatic Turkey.
Along the 'Bosphorus, in the vicinity of
Constantinople, and throughout Asia Minor,
the Levant, &C., the God Of Nature lavished
the most splendid natural advantages.
It is the region Of which Byron, in the
ecstacy of enjoyment and appreciation wrote
the wonderful lines beginning
"Know We the land of the cypress and myrtle
Know We the land of the cedar and vine,
Where the flowers ever blossom, the beams
ever shine?
Where the light wing of zephyr, oppressed
with perfume,
Wax faint over gardens of roses in bloom?
Where the citron and olive are fairest Of
fruit,
And the voice Of the nightingale never is
mute!
Where the tints Of the earth, and the hues Of
the sky,
In color though varied, in beauty may vie,
And the purple of ocean is deepest in dye?"
These missionaries are regally established
in this earthly Paradise, and they leisurely
give to few Turkish and Greek youths
Western education which many of the Greek
Catholics and the Mohammedans are eager
to obtain.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1907-1917, 1914-11-12

Never do these missionary workers in
Turkey convert anybody: they simply edu-
cate.
Broadly stated, no follower Of Mahomet
ever apostacises. Our churches make no
Roadway whatever among the Turks, or
among the Greek Catholics.
The magnificent colleges are maintained be-
cause the Professors are SO exquisitely pleased
to live amid ideal scenery, on salaries that
never sag.
For if the churches run dry, there is the
U. S. Government to send ships and ducats.
This is great country.

CARNIVAL HERE

EXHIBIT

Agricultural display, horticultn.
raj displays, carnivals and amuse-
ments OF every description are sched-
uled for the 22. 23. "a and 25th of
September when the Trinidad Cham
ber Of Commerce holds its first an
nual agricultural show. .
Owing to'the fact that the federal
troops now occupy the old fair
grounds it was thought advisable to
abandon the county fair this year
and hold in its place grand show
of the farm products OF the COM
munity. The Chamber OF Commerce
took charge of the affair at once and
through this body the most unique
display In the history of Trinidad
Will be held. The exhibit will be
held in some vacant store building
one one of the main streets OF the
city.
1t has been planned to have the
street closed on which the show is
located for distance of one block
and here hold some kind OF street
carnival. This will add materially
to the attractiveness OF the exposi-
tion and will bring people from all
over southern Colorado to Trinidad
for those four days during septem-
ber. Plenty of amusements will be
had and with the EXHIBIT OF the farm
products the affair wilrbe one which
will be long remembered by both the
townspeople and the farmers Of the
|county.
The premium list which contains
the premiums for the best exhibits
at the show will be off the press In
a few days and Will be distributed to
the farmers OF Las Animas county.
The list includes some valuable
prizes for home grown products and
is hig incentive for the farmers all
over southern Colorado to come to
Trinidad and display their products.
The committees appointed by the
directors of the Chamber OF Com
merce to handle the exposition and
who will have complete charge OF the
show are: w. G. Plested, d. p.

r. l.. Jamison. F. R. Wood These
men have taken hold of the exposi-
tion in a thorough manner and will
soon have their plans in definite
shape.
The present season has been an
unusually good one for the farming
community and from past years 1t
has been found that there is wealth
OF material in the soils of Las AMI
mas county. Bumper crops have
been reported from all sections of the
county and 1t is fully expected that
every farmer within radius of so
miles of Trinidad will be here with
his products and display them at the
first annual agricultural and liorti-
cultural show of the Trinidad Cham
her OF Commerce.
