ACADEMIC FREEDOM.

Probably no term has ever been
put to worse use than has that Of
academic freedom unless it be the
companion phrase, freedom OF
speech" Both are fine phrases, each
represents 8 thing which Is undo
nhbly good. The individual has u
right to express himself honestly and
thu teacher has a right to teach what
he believes. Both rights are subject
to certain limitations. There are to
be observed certain considerations Of
dcx.ellcy, the .transgression CT which
>rusr be visited by punishment. The
individual is answerable for what he
says, and the teacher must conform,
to certain reasonable requirements in
what he teaches. a,
Tho contrary doctrine is maintained
when attempts are made to justify
the Incubation of poisonous princi-
pies. In no department of human &C
able limitations imposed by society
more monstrouS than, in the perver-
sion Of the minds OF the young. The
child is impressionablc, and unin.
formed. He accepts as the voice OF
authority the voice o. hrs elders
whether parents or teachers, and he
is not able to exercise discretion
which is accessory to distinguish
truth from falschoid without guild
ance. If he werc able. instructors OF
any kind would be unnecessary fol
him. The universe is before him.. Le'
him find it out for himself. AS it i:
the child is guarded from harm ii
his physical acts until he is able witt
safety to shift for himself. 1t i.
quite as essential that he should b.
guarded from mental poison. Ant
for that reason sensible people every
where withhold from children tn
knowledge of subjects which ma!
with safety be considered by them II
their more mature years. Here So
cialist authorities seem to be of tn
opinion that the opposite urse i
the correct one, and h IA it is prope
to spread before children doctrine
of the most pernicious kind and trus
to their own discretion in accepting
or rejecting them.

JUST A BARGAIN.

Attorney General Palmer seems to
be laboring under the regular : de-
fusion that the coal strike was ended
as an act of obedience to the man
date OF the federal court. MI. Pal
mer may have some inside informa-
ton. which is not available to the
general public, but the view which he
cntertains is certainly not in accord
with the facts which nave been gen.
orally published.
1t is true that the court issued its
injunction. And it is equally r
that the miners paid no attention to
it. Criminal proceedings had bee
begun against the strike leaders, who
were charged with violating the in
junction. But there is no evidence
that-the criminal proceedings had
She strike, and if the charges in the
criminal proceedings, for which Mr..
Palmer was responsible, were we'll
founded, the injunction, prior to the
criminal actions, had been productive
of no result. Mr.. Palmer's depart
ment charged that Lewis and his assO-
ciates had violated the injunction in
failing to, end the strike which they
had called, and it is to be assumed
tisat Mr.. Palmer and his assistants
had facts upon which to base those
charges.
III his injunction Judge Anderson
said nothing about increased wages,
p1- or 1T , Nh - I'm ..1Io sim n L.
declared that the strike was unlaw-
full, and ordered that it be %discontin-
ued, IT was discontinued only at the
end of a process Of bargaining. and
in consideration of certain present
wage advances, with the possibility
of more later on.

The Gorernment-You miners are
performing an illegal act. and you
are hereby commanded to quit it.
The Understanding doing.
The Government-We repeat tina
you are violating the law, and yor
naust stop it. Wen fix it so that got
will get a IA per cent raise if you'll
quit striking, and we'll have a com.
mission look into the rest of it.
The Miners-An right. For IA pei
cent we will obey the law. but you've
got to hurry up about the rest of the
arrangements.
The Government-Many thanks fo1
your gracious consideration. Th'
majesty Of the law has been upheld

For tho weary, grown up boy
Or the little girl who now
Feels the. years upon her brow!
Home for Christmas! Back once more
To the mother at the door
And the old hearth with it's blaze
And those happy yesterdays:
Home for Christmas! There's a. thrill
For the toiler up the hill, - r.
For the trudger on the road
Heart sick with his heavy load.
Home for Christmas! Back to be
| Once again at mothers knee
And to feel her fond caress
In that spell of happiness.
Home for Christmas! Girl and lad
Going to the kindly dad
Who has waited through the year
For his loved ones to appear! .
Home for Christmas! Back again
To the simple Joys and plain.
To the refuge sweet with rest.
Where is love made manifest.
Home for Christmas! oh, that I
Could recall the years gone by,
And could know once more the bliss
OF that glorious welcome kiss. :.
Home for Christmas! Girl-and man
Claim that, gladness while you can.
Swift must come those years Of pain
When you'll long for home in vain.

In accordance with this ancient GUS
tom the socialists at Bismarck turned
Stangeland loose loading him up with
all the sins and iniquities that he could
sta5ger under. n there being so
many more trapsgressions to answer

it is now proposed to tie a pack Of
them on the back of Mcdonald, and
shoe hin7.off into an uninhabited
place. After Mcdonald other goats
may be found, and they will be need
ed because the list of transgreesions
is piling UP faster than scapegoats are
being made available, so that the sup
ply increases rather than diminishes.
The socialists in attempting to carry
out this part of the S%criptural injunc-
ton seem to- rave missed the main
point because the thought which I'M
derlay the ancient institution scape-
goat was that the people whose sins
he. bore away should at least make
some attempt to quit their meanness.
In the present case, the scapegoat is
being used al a convenience for the

In an old book called Leviticus
there is given this description of an
ancient and impressive ceremonial:
Grand Forks herald. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1916-1955, 1919-12-12

He shall bring the live goat;
and Aaron shall lay both his
hands upon the head of the live
goat, and confess over him all the
%iniquities of the children OF Israel,
and all their transgressions in all
their sins. putting them upon the
head Of the goat, and shall send
him away by the hand of a fit
mar into the Wilderness: and the
goat shall bear upon him all their
iniquities into a land not inhab-
tied; and he shall let go the goat
in the wilderness.
