Brutal Remarks
Made by a Teacher Who Is Now Asked to Resign.
.
Knoxville, Tenn., Sept. 12. C. F. Castiel, one
of the leading teachers in Knox county, has been asked by the board of trustees,
all Democrats, to resign because of these remarks to his pupils:
“McKinley should have been shot. He brought about
the Filipino war for personal aggrandizement and for the benefit of syndicates
and trusts, and could not expect anything else. I am not surprised at the news.
I am a Republican, but that is my opinion.”
When the children went home they told their parents,
and the citizens went in a body to the trustees and demanded his removal.
