- The School Tan Law.

The current number of the Indiana
School Journal has this paragraph in
reference to the school tax law passed
by the last Legislature - .. =
It will be borne in mind that at the
last session Of the Legislature law was
passed authorizing the levying of taxes
in cities, towns and townships, for pur-
poses of tuition in the public schools.
Whereas decision adverse to this sys-
tenn had been given in the Supreme
Court, in 1851, it was believed that suit
would be brought against the constitu
tionality of this act. But greatly to the
qualification and encouragement of the
friends Of public schools no suit has as
season for the current year closed on
April %, and as several corporations
have been taxed under this act, we are
led to the gratifying conclusion that the
law stands approved. In other words.
that all are SO impressed with the neces-
sity Of education that they readily ac
cept the law providing for increased
educational privileges, without ques
tioning its constitutionality. This is
truly encouraging, and if this act shall
remain operative, it, in conjunction with
other provisions now in force, will furn-
ish the means by which the schools
throughout the State can be brought to
| an average length of six months per
annum in the year 1870.
