My support of common schools has been unselfish and from principle. Now. take for example the amendment which was presented by the. Senator from Delaware as modified. "books wholly or partly in English." If any man wants to educate a boy or a girl in the Latin orGreek or German or Spanish or French language. and wants a dictionary to aid in that. that dictionary is wholly or partly in some other than the English language. and that has to be taxed. while the German children. the French. the Spanish. the Italian. and those who have become naturalized in our country. and who want to be educated in their own language. do not need to have such books partly in the English language. but have books wholly in their own language. and they will come in free. This I submit is an unjust discrimination against our nativeborn. Englishspeaking children.
