A REPITITION OF HISTORY


After every war mems minds seem
to undergo a period of unrest and
distrust of their fellow man. Dur
ing such periods they give express
sion to their prejudices, and let their
emotions sway their reason. Even
when wars do not occur periodic
waves of this type surge across the
currents of civic life. Those who
would find peace from this manifes-
tation of mans activity may do so
by studying their occurrences and
their aftermath, when, after the
tide of feeling subsidized men lived on
in the even tenor of their way.
Oregon at the present time is ex-
periencing one of these waves of un-
rest, which is expressed, in part at
least, by the initiation of such bills
as that known as the compulsory
education bill. While this measure
in itself is not as bad as some of the
opponents aver, it is not needed, and
will serve no good purpose. The
very fact that by great per cent
age, most of the children of Oregon
now go to the public schools is
proof that if all were compelled so
to do, no great harm would result.
But that is not the principal ques-
tion. 1t is what such a bill implies
and the steps to which 1t might lead.
In the first place the bill is fun
damentally wrong, in that it is not
in harmony with American institu-
tions. America was founded on the
principle of religious freedom, and
IL as corrollary we are to assume
that the state has the right to die
tate the place of instruction it Is
but a short step for the state to say
what may be taught as a religion.
There is a dangerous element in
this bill, in this, that If in the
course of time, for example, ma
jority of the people of this state,
became members of one faith, then /,
with the power Of the majority they |
might destroy the public school en-
tirely and say to all of us that our |
children must attend the parochial |
school of their choice. The bill
therefore gives enunciation to
principle that might cut both ways.
While there is little danger of |
such contingency arising, men In
political affairs should be careful
not to give expression to fundamen
tai principles the application of
which in a logical manner they are
to give assent when inter
preted by others.
The worst feature of the measure
Is the bringing into politics that
which should forever be kept out,
Here in America where
every man has the right to worship
his God after the dictates of his
own conscience there is no place for
and bigotry, Oregon's
he laws of the state. Only the
English language may be used in in
'truction, and the state has the
power to supervise the course OF
tudy in the secular branches even
n the private schools. If anything c
more is needed. certainly it is no l
hing more than that the teachers in
he private schools be compelled to /
each the given standard, pass the N
