He bad never known of 8 petition asking that the Bible be thrown out of the public schools. ‘Ihe Catholics did not auk It thrown out. ‘hey asked a division of the scnool funds moroly, which other denorainations algo demanded, “ite believod that the Bible was necessary in the scuoois to make tho childron good aud moral men aud women. Ho urged ita restoration, < <= OrPosiTE VIEWS, Mr. Oleson mado a lung argument against tho relustating of the Biblein tho schools, os it was upposed by a largo numbor of tax-paying citizens, including Catuolica, Jews, aud others. io thought ir it waa road at ali it shoutd bo commented on. If it was a text-book, why should it bo read without being explamed? Ho held that the whole matter bad been thoroughly considered heretofore, and ought not to be fur- ther actod ou now, but to be left ay it atood. 4n. WELCH read a list of names of gentlemen residing out- wide of the city, fueling sono who did not re- side m this cauaty, who had signed tho patitions for restoring the Biblo in tho schools, Theso, Le said, wore the Chicago tax-pavers. Cortain parties said thoy had been shocked, but he kad hoen shocked by Learing it said by certain gen- tleman in the Board that only a portion of tho Uible whould be read in tha schools, Ho hold ‘that all was good in tho Bible, and all the books in the Biblo wero necessary for odification. Ho thought any New Englund man would be shock- od at euch a atatement favoring only reading a portion. Held hoard a paucgyric on Josua Christ, preached by Rabbi, in a Jewish Church, aud ho could uot see ‘why thoy should not read the New Testament. Only a fow of tho oxiremely projudiced reverend clergy had accused tho mombers of prejudico. ‘They only wanted the echools subverted to a cor- tatu rule. They wanted to mako the public schools unpopular in their denominations. These woro the mon who abused tho members of the Board, and those who had beard tho haranguo in Far- well Finll wero awaro of that. The whole mat- ter way the action of certain low and intriguing politiciaus. Ho thought they should take action rogardlosa of the howlings of thoso men.
