The public schools Of Dakota lre work
ing under two systems-the District
and the Township. Tho district system,
is used in the old counties Of Barnes,
Cass, Clay, Codington, Deuel., Grand
Forks. Hutchinson, Lawrence. Lincoln,
MinnehaIla, Moody, Pembina, Union,
Walsh and Yankton, and tho township,
system is in force in tho balance OF the
territory.
At the close Of tho last school year.
June 80, lS85,..there were 1862 school
districts and 78l school townships ex.
listing in the Territory, and the enumer.
alton Of pupils Of school agc-be,ween

563, and further statistics show that SU
per cent. Of these attend school during
the year, which is an extraordinary ut.
tendance, not equallcd by but very to*
Of the states in tho Union.
A comparative view with our own
past will show that in 1875 there were
but 8 BAG children OF school age in the
territory, against 81 1868 in 1885, and the
figures for 1875 embrace all between the
ages OF S and 2l. II will further show.
in the same time. an increase Of schools
from 221 to 3,2279, and an increase In
the number OF teachers employed from
2O8 TO Alas, with Il healthy increase il,
the average monthly pay from $50 to
$34.76. In 1875 tho total expenditures
for school purposes were $32,6O3, while
in 1883 they were 81, $l,Sl4,2l2.4O, with IL
balance on hand OF $327, ,54i.39.
A compnrision with the states Of the
Union shows that Dakota expended
more money tor public school purposes
during the year ending June ~, 1855
than was expended by any one OF ina.
iority Of these states. Dakota territory
hus received no MD from the national
