Many individuals in private life
would be happy if their debts were
in such good shape as those of the
State of Pennsylvania. Fifty years
ago, when this State had only one
third its present population and one
fourth its wealth now, it was loaded
with debt of forty millions. This
has now been reduced TO only S2,-
iOO,0 and before another year,
over one and II half millions more
will be paid of, The State Treas
urer will have the money to do it,
and has given notice to the unwill-
ing creditors that they must take it.
Beyond this, the State owns SO, 900,
900 in Government bonds and ST.
700, 900 in Allegheny Railroad bonds,
so that it is really out OF debt, or,
rather has more assets than liabih-
ties. OF course it's credit is gilt
edged and ii necessary, the State
could borrow money at very low
rates OF interest.

Compulsory Education.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

From the Philadelphia Ledger
State Superintendent of Public
Instruction Nathan G. Schaefrer, in
the course Of an address before the
School Directors Of Berks county,
Pa, recently stated that Of the
sixteen States having compulsory
education laws the legislation is not
enforced III fourteen This state
ment of the practial operation of
such laws in fourteen American
States, coming from the official head
Of the Departmental Public Instruc-
tion in the second State i'm the
Union, and uttered in the presence
of an official school body assembled
TO be enlightened on this and kin
dred educational topics, viii attract
public attention.
While some form of compulsory
education legislation has been passed
in several States, the great majority
OF Americans seem 20 think it out
of harmony with our institutions.
They find the conditions of life 10 be
less attractive in those countries
whose Governments are continually
intermeddiing with the freedom of
the citizen than it is in nations
whose people scarcely feel the fric-
ton of governmental machinery.
The subject OF compulsory educa-
ton has provoked much scholastic
discussion but it has not reached the
importance of national issue.
| Questions which deeply agitate the
public soon find their way into polit-
ical platforms, national and State.
American politicians are astute TO
discover the quarter from which the
popular gales are blowing and are
always ready ~ 10 catch
the breeze. Every declaration of
policy which promises to win votes
is likely TO be found embedded some
where in the assortment Of prin-
| cIples endorsed in party conventions
In l-92 there were i've national
parties in the field, and only one of
them, the most Iiscredited and least
powerful Of the list, made any ref
erence to compulsory education.
Republican, Democratic, the Pro-
hibition and the People party made
no lllusIon to the topic. The So
claIists adopted this plank school
education of all children under IL
years Jf age TO be compulsory, gra-
| tuitUus and accessible to- MI by public
assistance IN meals, clothing, books,
etc superintendent Schaeifer, IN
| his Reuding address, recognized the
logical position Of the Socialists IN
| the matter. He is credited with
saying that many children are kept
away from school because they do
not have proper clothing, and II
Pennsylvaniu adopts u compulsory
education law, it must provide the
necessary apparel. This implies
vast expense.
The number Oi children OF school
age, estimated by the Nat. Bureau
Of Education TO be- IN the country in
1880, was Is. Sl2, 7GG. The number
enrolled on the public school list was
1900, 1876. The difference between
tho number eligible for public
instruction and those actually on
rolled was ,, SO2, $50. Alter doduc-
! ting the host Of children attending
private and donominational schools,
the number Of absentee school
children il not relatively large.
Whether large or small tho common
school establishment of Peunsyl-
vania, speaking through its chief
officers, is recorded against compul-
sion in education.
