an additional annua! appropriatio:', t
be placed to er. dit of tho Slate seho ,1
fund tn bedistributsd pro rata to such
districts as will by private .-tibsciiptioii
supplement their public school fund, and
to townships, cities and towns that sup
plelllellt their scm-rnl Intel I'V special
taxation. Thi'. he -ays. will apply the
principle of helping those who help them
selves a principle which lias dote' much
fur the development of schools elsewlu re.
The Rhasiike News thinks this is a
wrong principle. Those who can and
will help themselves are less in need of
State aid. and it is not tair Dot to help
those must need help. The school fuud
should be placed where il will do the
most good, and it will do the most good
where the people are least able to he'p
theuiselvos.
Mr. Finger also recommends such leg
islation as will require more active siipir
vUiou by county sut lint, udeiits. .Hid
such pay ;(h will secure the services -f
competent nu n. and that authority be
given the St ite Hoard of Kdiiealioll lo
dismiss from oftiee those who prove in
competent or neglectful, and appoint
ullnrMU tlnir stead, lie also thinks
that tho system would be much simplified
by nuking the county sup, rintein lent.,
treasurers of the county school fund
This would entail no additional expense
but would increase the salaries of super
intelidi ills and enable lb m to devote
more time to thoir work, fur as Mr. Fin
ger s.iys examination of te icli,-rs 'Iocs not
alone furni-h evidence ol'litti-ss to 1,-ach
and govern, but such evi l-.-neo can aloii -bj
had by personal inspection of the w,t
iu the school room. The.,- seem r.-as n
aide an 1 Would doubtless be advi-aMo
Mr. Finger recommends an amend
ment lo the Constitution in order to allow
taxation for schools beyond the present
limit of lit! i cents on SUM of property
and S-.fW on the pull. This we harlly
think would be wise, especially as re
gards the eastern eouuties. for in these
counties, at hast ill Halifax, the whites
already lay by fir the larger part of the
school fund while the colored people gi t
the largest part of the fund. (lureo
pie are unwilliug to be taxed birth' r
while this state of things exists. When
the system is changed so that each race
must support its own seho ils th recom
mendation will have more force.
The committee on Education present
ed a bill drawn to coverall the ehangi s
desired to be made iu the public sell,,, 1
law. The bill is prepared and subniiitid
by the committees ol' huh branches of
the Legislature, lis main features are as
follows: The county superinti tident is
made the treasurer of the school fund.
Tiie school year is to end June 'iOth.
The county commissioners ading iu eon-
junction with the magistrates may sub
mit to the people the question whether or
not a sellout t IX shall be lowed, ll 't to
exceed one-fiflh of one per o ut on prop
erty and sixty cents on ihepull.
