The State Board of Educational Land! and Funda bai decided by a majority voU! to pint the application of Alexander Blair and seventeen other for government deeda to homesteads In Boyd county. According to tba term of the aettlement the land la to be released to the general government, from which It may be afterward recovered by the p relent occupanta. Land Commissioner Folmer resisted the aettlement on the ground that the home steads are atate land and cannot be re linquished. The deeda cannot be executed unieaa aigned by the land commissioner, and It la likely that official will withhold his approval pending receipt of an opinion by the attorney general. Tha matter haa long been In dlapute and an extended ar gument wsji Indulged In at a meeting of the board last week and again today by tha representatives of the homesteaders, who are seeking to hare tha landa deeded to the government.' Bible tat Pnblle Schools. John H. Llndale of Oage county haa ap peared a a friend of the supreme court In the caae of the Bute ex ret Freeman against John Schev and other dlrectora of a Gag county school district. He bega leave to call attention to the danger which he aaya threatena the rights of a large body of people who constitute an Integral part of the cltlsenshlp. the membership of a great church. Mr. Llndale refera to the Roman Catholics. Tha caae In Vhtch Mr. Llndale appears arose from an application! In the district court of Gars county for an order re training the authorltiea from causing the certain aectlona and veralona of the bible to be read In the public achoola. Mr. Llndale begins his argument by as setting that the aeparatlon of the church and atate In thla country la the result of a compromise. He aaya: . "When the constitution was formed. there were Congregattonallsta in New Eng land, Dutch Reformers In New. York, Luth erans In New Jersey, Quaker In Pennsyl vania, Cathollos In Maryland. Methodists In Oeorgla, CalvtnlsU In South Carolina. Epla copailana In Virginia, and everything and what not In North Carolina. In order that all should be on an equal footing, It was provided that congress should make no law respecting an eatabliahment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. Thla waa the first amendment, the first article of the "BUI of Rights,' aa the first ten amendment have been styled. Under thla "Bill of Right" under this provision. 'every denomination acquired vested rights. Thla spirit of toleration gradually filtered down Into our atate constitutions, till It haa become the genius of pur Institutions. "Our owi state constitution provide: " A1 persons liav a natural and inde feasible right to worahtp Almighty God so cording to the dicta tea of their own con science. No person shall be compelled to attend, ereot or support any place of wor ahlp against his consent, and no preference shall ' be given by law to any religious . society, nor shall any Interference with the right of conscience b permitted.' "Compslaory education -haa been, (a- force In thla state from time immemorial. . I have but to refer to the act of March SO, 1901, to aubdlvlalon xvl of chapter Ixxlx, of tha Compiled Statutes of 1891, and the other links la the ohaln. "If the bible la need In publlo schools. If hymne are aung, and If children are com pelled to attend acbool, you compel attend ance at a place of' worship, which la con trary to. tha state constitution. Hymna are but prayers In meter. "But the bible, you Bay, la common to all Christians. The Catholic yields to no one la his reverence for the Word of God. In a recent editorial In the New York Sun the following paragraph appeara: " 'Aa It Is bow, the pope Is the sole, bold, positive and uncompromising champion of the bible aa the word of God.' "The Cat hollo church has condemned the so-called 'high criticism,' which la nothing but Tom Paine In a parson's cassock. Tho Catholic must take hi gospel straight with no augar-ooatlng. or let him be anathema. "But we do not purpose to have Jamee Stuart'a tranalatlon forced down our throat without a protest. It would savor of pe dantry and would serve no useful purpose to point out the difference between King Jamee' veraloa and the Douay edition. "We are not ssklng to have the Douay edition read la our publlo school. We do not think It proper. If we did. what a bowl would go up all over the land. The arrogance of Rome!' It doea make a differ enoe whose ox la being gored. 'Orthodox la my doxy and heterodoxy la your doxy' has been the song of every religious tyrant from Jew-burning Torquemada to witch burning Cotton Mather." la closing, Mr. Llndale remarks: "The gods of Olympus are back numbers. No body believes In ' them. It la safe to ay that for fourteen centurlea nobody haa. The difference between Homer and tha bible la the difference between a dead wire and a. live wire. You cannot disassociate ' any version of the bible from religion I Will Cure You of Rheumatism KO PAY UNTIL YOU MOW IT. Attar J. 000 experiments. I have learned how to cure Rheumatism.

Any attempt to run the blockade under the literary flag reminds one of Petroleum V.
