Th committee held a three hou hearing, but action ou the hill was not deferred. The prevail ing entimeiit seems to be in favor of the new county. After a debate that was ai times scathingly personal, aim which considered every phase i rhe question under discussion, the Senate on Thursday passeo the bill fixing the amount or com pensation to be received by So licitors by a vote of 26 to 1U. The bill am amended provide. rhat Solicitors whose fees veai ' tinouat to or are in excess ol i2,S00 shall leceive that amount is their annual salary; and tho!e Solicitors whose fees do not amount to that sum shall re ceive only the amount of their fees. The bill also prescribes that all fees in excess of 2,5u0 iu every district shall be seut to the State treasury to augment the school tuntl. The debate was long and" frequently almost oitter but the hurt of nub tie sar casm was sometimes diminished by the humor or ridicule follow ing which con vnlsed the Senat-. Several of the Senators absented themselves from the Senate chamber before the vote was taken and returned only after the dual passage of the bill.

State Superintend James Y foyner was talking on the 5th. jl th-,r bill for a raoderat .-.ad tentative compulsor -.chool law in North Carolina introduced by Representativt ;!ling, of Gaston, in tht tuuse. iur-.., uunng nas ae v iitd his life to T the cottoi nanufacturing business aa is also a farmer and under stands the conditions prevail ing in our villages and th runtl districts. Here are the reasons for the passage of tht bill given by Mr Joyner: 1. The bill is mild, conser vative, reasonable in age limit, in required period of attend ance, in penalties, sixteen vveeks a year, from eight tu twelve is the minimum con stitutional requirement for compulsory attendance. (Sec tion 15, Article IX). It is aiso the minimum period necessary for teaching a child "to read and write any sec tion of the Constitution in the English language," and there by qualify him to vote. 2. Compulsory attendanct is made subject to the discre tion of the County Board oi Education and to the will ol the majority of the people as expressed by petition or vote, except, wheie the enrollment and attendance fall so low as to furnish evidence of such ignorance and indifference to education as to render com pulsory attendance without potition or vote necessary foi getting the children in school. In this case, it is still left to the discretion of the County Board of Education. 3. The census of 19U0 showed 45.692 native white RISING FKOM THE GRAVE. a promsnent manufacture, Wm.

';'., illiterates in North Carolina between ten and nineteen .years of age. This number has been considerably reduced during the past six years, but there are still thousands of illiterates of school age in this State. In 1905-1906 only about 70 per cent, of the white children were enrolled in the public schools and only abou 42 yer cent, were in daily at tendance. About 144,00( white children, therefore, were not in the public schools last year. Most of these chil dren are on the straight road illiteracy and disfranchise nent, unless some more effec tive means be found to bring them into school. 4. The small per cent, ot increase in enrollment and average daily attendance dur ing the past five years, not withstanding the increase in educational actiyity and ap oropriations, the improve ment in houses, equipment, teachers, supervision, and public sentiment, forces the conclusions. that other mean rhan these must be found for overcoming illiteracy. 5. The only effective means found by other States and countries, are compulsory at tednance laws. Thirty-five of the forty-seven States of the Union and over eighty per cent, of all the civilized and enlightened peoples of the world are under compulsory ittendance laws. Illiteracy is least where there are com pulsory attendance laws, and greatest where there are not such laws. 6. The tendency of illiter acy is to perpetuate itself. The majority of the illiterate children of North Carolina ire the children of illiterate and, perhaps, the decendants f generations of illiterates. Ignorance understands not the value and necessity of education, and is necessarily ldifferen.t anc apathetic to ward itv" Therefore, the only effective means of saving the hildren of ignorance and il literacy from the curse of ig norance and illiteracy s through compulsory attend ance legislation. 7. Every child has a right tu a chance to avail himself of the opportunity provided by 'ffaje State for making the most of hrmself through education. This is the natural, the moral, the religious, the civic, and the constitutional right of the child. 8. Every takpayer has a right to the protection that he pays for under compulsion by the State against the danger to life, liberty, f property, so ciety and government that lurks in the ignorance of his neighbor's child. , 9. No man, not even a par eut, has any right to deprive iny child or any tax payer of these rights. 10. The reports of the State Superintendent of Pub lic Instruction show that the tax payers and thousands of children of school age are be ing deprived of these rights by thelaz'ness, thriftlessness, indifference and ignorance of parents and guardians, through whom the best in Don't neglect your cough.

In the light of the facts set forth above, the only way to guarantee this right to all is compulsory attendance. 12. The constitutional re quirement of an educational qualification for suffrage log ically requires of the State a guarantee to the child through a compulsory attendance law of the opportunity to meet that repuirement.

It is believed that such a building can be erected and equipped for $40,000. For this we ask an appropriation of $20,000 a year for. two years.
