All persons born or naturalized in the United States, J J ' ' and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the j • ! ' United States and of the State wherein they reside. No , < ’ state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the i ] privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor ? ;; shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or prop- v !! erty without due process of law, nor deny to any person X !! within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. X 1 MORE SHOULD ORADUATE CCHOOL will be reopening soon. The enrollment In grade and High schools of Omaha, we are advised, will be the largest in the history of the city. Every provision is made by a generous and far-sighted common wealth for the education of the chil dren of all citizens. Free text books are provided and ,no pains are spared to give every child excellent oppor-, tunities for obtaining adequate school- j ing. School attendance is compulsory up to a certain age, and parents are held strictly responsible for seeing thai their children are in school. There is, j therefore, no reason under the sun why any child, no matter how poor his parents may be, should not receive an education. Children of our group are taking advantage of these school privileges, particularly in the lowei grades. Our enrollment in the grade schools is most gratifying; but in pro- j portion to our numbers we have too few enrolled in the High schools of the city. Too many children stop at' the and of the eighth grade. We ought to have not less than 300 stu dents in Central, South and Technical High schools, whereas wo have only about one-third of this number. We ought to have fifteen or twenty High school graduates every year instead of three or four, which is about tne aver age. East June we had seven, which was a much better showing than hitherto, and shows an improvement which we hope will continue. But the average for several years has not ex ceeded three. Our boys and girls should be encouraged to go through high school and wherever possible through college; but certainly through high school. Our enrollment in the high school should be large this year and we ought to have year by year an increasing number of graduates. A WORD TO STUDENTS ■JIJUNDREDS of our boys and girls will be entering school and college soon. To such of these as we may reach The Monitor would send a word of personal greeting, congratulating them upon the privileges which are theirs of securing an education. Then we would add to this that we are counting on you to make good; to take full advantage of every oppor tunit at hand to get all out of your course you can. To do this means work, faithful, conscientious, diligent work. We are anxious that you should lead in scholarship and in sports. You can, if you are willing to pay the price, and the price is W-O-R-K. You have every incentive to do your best and to be the best. There are those who doubt your ability for sustained effort. Prove that you have it. And above all show yourself to have a character above reproach. If others are little-minded, show you self to be large-minded. If tempted to give up, because you cannot have the things that your more favored fellow-students have, Just put the temptation behind you and stick like glue. That’s part of the price you will have to pay. You'll be the richer In the end. And keep the thought con stantly before you that you are getting an education that will better equip you for effective work and service during a healthy and active life. Ed ucation is to fit us for efficient WORK wherever our lot may be cast. par ents’ hopes are In you; they will count whatever sacrifices they may be called upon to make for you Joy indeed if you will only do your best not to dis appoint them. The future of our peo ple are In the hands of the boys and girls who are students In the various schools today. What will that future bp» . / — THE THUG TARIFF P a thug bolds a citizen up on the street or highway and takes money out of his pocket he is guilty of an in ditable offense. If apprehended he pngs the penalty of his crime by being sent to prison. There is, however, another kind of thuggery which is not eoneidered as Indictable, but upon tbe contrary is considered as highly re spectable. Those who indulge in it are written down in the annals of a grateful country as statesmen. We refer to that species of thuggery ; which the present republican congress is guilty of in putting over its present high protective tariff as provided for in the Fordney-McCumber bill which is now before the Senate and will doubtless be passed by that influential body. If there ever was a case of gen uine respectable (7) thuggery by which money is to be taken out of the pockets of the people, for the fattening and : battening of a favored few, the pro- : posed tariff schedules on wool, sugar and like necessities, not luxuries trv necessities, furnish that example. A moderate protective tariff, sufficiently large to cover governmental expenses and protect a few undeveloped indus tries that need it, is generally admitted to be a necessity, but such an advance in tariff rates on necessities as ib about to be saddled on this country is nothing short of robbery Are the republican party and president under such pre-election pledges and obliga tions to the trusts which will be the Chief beneficiaries of this nrgn pro tective tariff that they are bound to deliver the goods? There are some strange doings at Washington that raise serious questions in the minds of many people, and some of these ques tionable matters center around this thug tariff business. Even as a publi cation with strong republican leanings The Monitor cannot endorse the repub lican position on the tariff as pro ) posed in the Fordney-McCumber bill. Its passage means the endorsement of legislative thuggery and the down fall of a republican administration which will have betrayed the people.
