In this non-interference theory of the Government I do not go to the extent of saying that we should do nothing for education — for primary education. That comes under another consideration — the necessity of the nation to protect itself, and the considera^tion that it is cheaper and wiser to give education than to build jails. But I am speaking now of the higher sciences. • To the general principle I have stated, there are a few obvious ex- •ceptions which should be clearly understood when we ...legislate on the subject. In the first place the Government should aid all sorts of scientific inquiry that are necessary to the intelligent exercise of its own functions. For example, as we are authorized by the Constitution and compelled "by necessity to build and maintain light-houses on our coast and es tablish fog-signals, we are bound to make all necessary scientific in- quiries in reference tolightanditslaws, soundand its laws — todo what- ever in the way of science is necessary to achieve the best results in lighting our coasts and warning our mariners of danger.
