An Unfortunate Citation.

By Editor

In defending the proposition to add specific religious doctrine to the public school curriculum in the District of Columbia, Gen. Henry V. Boynton cites Chicago as a precedent. The reference just at this time is unfortunate for the cause he would sustain. The people of the District of Columbia would hardly be convinced that the morals of Chicago are so much superior to theirs, as to warrant patterning after her educational system for the purpose of emulation.
