The law allows the citizens of.any
parish. ward, district or municipality.
to levy FIVE mill tax for school pur-
poses, This law gives the citizens Of
Grant parish an exceptionally fine
opportunity to put their schools ON
an independent basis. The people in
q number of the parishes are taking
advantage:of the law, but as yet we
believe the Pollock district is the only
one In Grant that has made any move
in that direction. We hope to see
other localities take steps in the same
at an early date.

The Wrong should be Righted.


The total enrolment of the Pollock
school has reached 800 now making
nve more than this district gets credit
for after counting the Gates and
White Spur Embellishments.
This simple recital of conditions is
made by the Demands. when there is
ample room for criticism over the fact
that the Pollock school has five more
children actually enrolled In that one
school. than the entire district gets
credit for In the enumeration made
by the assessor. Yet It seems there
are two other schools In the district
which are entitled to be included in
the count! This shows that the emu
meratiOn was made by some incom-
petent or very careless person. In
either case the school board should
look toit that the enumeration of the
parish Is done In a more thorough
and efficient manner. This complaint
comes up from more than one locali-
ty, and has been the subject of dis
cussion for three or four years. 1t is
time for the school board to take the
matter severely In hand, and require
the assessor to comply with the law
and properly discharge the duty for
which he IL paid.
In 1895 the enumeration Of the Pol
lock district was 3yS. and the decrease
to only 315 In the enumeration for
1900 very naturally excites remark,
for the reason that there has been no
perceptible decrease In that district
within the last four years.
A few years ago the board and the
superintendent inaugurated the sys-
TEN Of an alphabetical enumeration,
by which every family in each district
was taken into account. But even
this system fails ii the patrons and
the school trustees OF the various dis
tri:ts do not take an active and In
sistent part in seeing that each and
every Child il listed. Perhaps the on |
" sure plan would be to publish the
list of children In each district, and |
then all omissions could be pointed |
out by the citizens Of the various dis
tricts. This plan will not he trouble
some or expensive. and 1t will certain.
" add materially to the public school
fund.
