That Stock Law Again.

A number of our farmers seem to
be quite apprehensive IN regard to
the amendment to the stock law that
was passed by the last Legislature.
We tried to explain in these col
umns some time ago, that according
to answers given some Of the papers
in this part Of the state by Governor
Folk and Senator Ely, that the
amendment referred to only affected
those counties which have adopted
or may hereafter adopt the stock law,
and does not affect those counties
which have not adopted it.
Now, we do not know where to
get better authority, and Governor
Folk and Senator Ely certainly
would not make such statements
unless they were true.
1t, at any rate, does not seem prob
able that the repeal of one section
and the adoption of section in lieu
thereof, could change the meaning
or purpose of the chapter when the
object of the change appears 10 be
to give certain officers power to
make the chapter more effective.

Facts About the Philippines.

The bulletin of the Philippine
census is rather dry reading, says
the Kansas City World. Neverthe-
less, there are some plain facts that
may be sifted out-facts that are
vital to any fair discussion of the
Philippine question.
The archipelago consists Of 342
Independent groups of islands, with
an aggregate population Of 1885,
426. About 9 per cent are wild
tribes; the remainder "more or less
civilized''-chiefly less. All are
Catholics in religion. There are
only four cities Of over 10000 pop
ulation. Three-fifths of the people
live in villages. There are only
$4,000 foseigners and thee-tourths
of these are Chinese. The popula-
ton has quadrupled in 100 years.
The line of demarkation between
The tribes is closely drawn. The
people are too clannish to marry
outside their tribes. There are as
many females, practically, as males
but only one-third of the popula,
tion is married.
only about half the population
Marble Hill press. (Marbel [sic] Hill, Mo.) 1881-1923, 1905-04-27

can speak any language. Less than
that per cent can write. Only one
fifth can both read and write. The
college educated form about ! ] per
cent Of the total.
: The mass of the people cultivate
small patches of ground and gar
dens, and fish and hunt. The wo-
men are expert wcavers. Among
the Nisayans are the needle women
emhroiderers and lace makers.
Statistics show that the people de-
veIop early, marry early and die
early-S2 per cent before the age OF
so. Malaria carries away p per cent,
cholera 33 per cent. Contagious dis
eases can scarcely be controlled on
account of the ignorance as to sani-
tation, etc.
The most encouraging thing is the
growth of education. Five per cent
of the population-as against 20 per
cent in this country-are IN the
schools. There are 5000 teachers,
of whom four-fifths are native.
There is great need Of more schools
and teachers.
Hemp is the most valuable export
forming two-thirds of the total.
Sugar is next.
Pauperism, except in times Of dis
tress, is unknown. The people arc
willing to work, and under compe-
tent direction are good laborcrs.
So say Uncle Sans census takers.

IT is anything but pleasant to us
to use the space in our paper in a

understood that Intoxicating liquor
is dispensed with impunity, and con-
tempt for, and in open violation Of
the law, after her boy, as was the
case in this town last Saturday even
ing, silence is no longer golden, and
forbearance ceases to be a virtue.

been issued, are hanging over the
head of the proprietor Of the bust

AS soon as hatched they are placed in
the broOaers and kept in the brooder

CompuIsorY School Attendance.

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. It is now up to
the people to make more and better pro-
vision in room and teaching force. The
essential features of the law are as fol-
lows:
Every child between and ii shall at
tend regularly some day school not less
than half the time the school is in session.
Every child between IA and Is who is
not actually, regularly and lawfully en-
ployed shall attend school.
A child may be temporarily excused by
a court having competent jurisdiction
from attending school on account OF
mental or physical incapacity; ii parent
or guardian is unable to provide proper
clothing; If there is no school within two
and one-half miles of the residence; II
the child has already completed the com
mon school course; if the labor of the
CnliO Is dbStIuGelS HcCtSS<iIS " ouPPNA :
the family.
Any parent or guardian who violates
the provisions of the law is guilty OF
misdemeanor and is subject to both fine
and imprisonment.
The enforcement of the law devolves
on school boards. In cities OF three
thousand population ndmore, they may
appoint truant officers to enforce the law
and pay such officers out of school funds.
No child between and ii shall be en-
ployed 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 child be-
tween and IL without securing certifi-
cate from school authorities that said
child has complied with the law, is guilty
OF niisdemeanor and subject to fine OF
fifty dollars and costs.
In cities having a population of 10,OOC
or more, the school boards are authorized
to establish and maintain one or more
