This is done, this deliberate act is done by those who here daily sing paeans in praise of popular education, who believe it to be the be-all and endall of human states- manship, who hold that mental education is the one thing needful, and that that must be had at all stages, and whether people desire it or not. This universal panacea for every wrong, moral, political, and religious, is now by a bill like this to be withdrawn. It is held to be a certain cure for every ill. If it be so, a ground... of assumption for those who state it, and have stated it always in this Chamber and out of it, among whom is the honorable Senator from Massachusetts, the author of this bill, and now its strong and earnest advocate ; if this be so, then he may carry with it the other comforting fact that by his bill he will do more to prevent the benefits of education from reaching three fourths of the while children of this District than by any other measure he could devise. I believe that he is perfectly honest in his belief in the neces- sity and value of public education ; and yet while he realizes that idea, the instant that he places beside it that dominating and over- whelming idea of his of the equality (to be forced if it does not naturally exist, or it may be the superiority, for aught I know, in his mind of the African race and their descend- ants to those of any other country, ) lo, and behold, the value of education fades away!
