The mantle OF Elijah has fallen on
worthy Elisha. JudsonsLyons, reg
lister of the treasury is to be succeed
ed by Prof W. 7. Vernon, so says the
Associated Press. Apart from the in
teres. this has for us because Of the
friendship we bear the great western
educator, the appointment is note
worthy for it is the beginning Of just
recognition for the Negro in politics
upon basis of real service. With all
kindness for our southern brethren
it may still be said that their inhu.
ence is not factor in the election Of
ticket, while upon the northern Ne

talked OF balance OF power. We con
gratulate the Kansas Demosthenes
upon his appoictment and feel sure
that he will reflect credit upon the
class he is chosen to represent.

Colored boys are now employed in
the Denver Dry Goods Company as el

Inns and Lewis stores also use them.
There was once a time here when only
Daniels and Fisher employed us thus,
and it is no small compliment TO
Messrs. Hodges and Conway for their
efficient service that rival stores have
come to use colored help. So it is
ever. Competent Negro help is ad-
vantageous to US all. Opportunities
are made or maned by those OF us
who are fortunste enough TO be placed

Compulsory School Attendance

NOWDUtSOTy oGuVVu tAtlC u
Missouri will have compulsory school
attendance law after June 10th. 1t will
increase the average enrolment in the
State fully ten per cent and the average
attendance twenty per cent if school
boards enforce the law. 1t is now up to
the people to make more and better pro-
visions in room and teaching force. The
essential features OF the law are as fol-
lows:
Every child between the ages of s and
IA years shall attend regularly some day
school not less than half the time the
school is in session.
Every child between the ages of II and
Is who is not actually, regularly and
lawfully employed shall attend school.
A child may be temporarily excused by
a court having competent jurisdiction
from attending school on account of
mental or physical i~ncapacity; if parent
or guardian is unable TO provide proper
clothing; if there is no school within two
and one half miles of the residence; if
the child has already completed the COM
mon school course; if the labor of the
child is absolutely necessary to support
the family.
Any parent or guardian who violates
the provisions of the law is guilty and is
subject to both fine and imprisonment.
The enforcement Of the law dovolves on

and population and more, they may APP.
point truant officers to enforce the law
and pay such officers ont of school funds.
No child between S and ~ shall be
employed in mine, factory, workshop or
mercantile establishment unless such
child has complied with all the require.
ments regarding attendance, excuses,
etc.
Any person who employs a child be-
tween S and II without securing certif.
cate from school authorities that said
child has complied with the law, is guilty
Of misdemeanor and subject to a fine of
fifty collars and costs.
School boards shall publish or post
notices of the provisions of this law Just
before the opening of school each year.
Members Of school board and regularly
appointed truant officers ma arrest any
child not legally excused from attending
school and put the child in some day
school that may be selected by parent or
guardian. In case parent or guardian
makes no choice, then in the public
school of the district.
Although the law requires attendance
of only half the time, no child can be ex-
cused from attendance on that account
until he has complied with the law. In
other words, a child can not be excused
from attending the first half of the term
III condition that he attend the last half,
but he may be excused from attending
when he has complied with the law BY
attending half of the term.
