The St. Mary banner. (Franklin, Parish of St. Mary, La.) 1889-1931, 1906-06-09

The Louisiana House of Repre-
sen'etives has passed the primary
election bill by unanimous vote.
The clause which required voter
to state his party allegiance at the
time of registering was stricken
out. The law now goes to the
Senate, which we predict will not
have such smooth sailing, but
we hope, nevertheless with all
amendments that may be made to
it, to finally have on our statute
books a law governing primary
elections that will harmonic all
antagonisms and strengthen and
satisfy the dominant party.

State Superintendent of Educa-
ton j. B. Aswell, has sent out the
following notice to parish super
intendents: "By authority Of the
Louisiana Board of Education,
hereby announce that the next
regular examination Of the white
teachers for certificates of quail
fcation will be held on Monday
Tuesday and Wednesday, July 80
and 81 and August 1. The exam
ination for colored teachers will
be held on Friday and Saturday,
August 2 and 4.

COMPULSORY EDUCATION.

The State legislature is wrestling
with pending bill to make edu-
cation compulsory in this State.
That is to say, that if this bill
should become law parents
would be compelled under its pro-
visions to send their children to
school without any exception.
Some many years ago this ques-
ton of compulsory education was
widely preached by the press OF
this State, and at that time there
were few newspapers or public in
dividuals who were opposed to the
enactment Of law to cover the
case. But in those days there
were no prerequisites to the right
of suffrage. There were no poll
tax, property or educational quail
ifications such as we have to-day.
It is argued now by not a few
prominent men and newspapers
that the passage of such a meas
ure by the legislature would force
the illiterate blacks to qualify a.
voters, and such a compulsion
would eventually endanger white
supremacy, or rather the existence
of Democratic government in this
State.
The BANNER believes that the
poll tax prerequisite is, in one
sense, great step towards COM
pulsory education, and it would
perhaps be wise for the legisla-
ture to refrain, for the time being,
of going any further. The colored
race has showed no great dispo-
sition to qualify as voters under
the poll tax law. Why force edu-
cation upon them as matter OF
compulsion?
