Senator. Thomas, In committee of the v whole today offered an entirely new bill for S. F. 60, the compulsory education measure he Introduced In the senate early In the' session at the request of a number of ' Omaha people ' Interested.

The .bill, as Introduced, required the attendance of all children between 7 and 18 years for the full school year, un less in the case of children over 14 It was necessary they should work to support themselves or some one dependent upon them. The substituted bill retains this feature as to Omaha, but In the rest of th'e state1 changes the ages 7 and IS and requires them .to attend two-thirds of the school year, or In any case not less than twelve weeks a year. The bill as changed was recommended for passage by the com mittee of the whole. I.lentenant fiovernor ..Votes.

Senator King's free high school bill was recommended for passage by t".e senate. It allows any child living in a district which does not provlJe a full high school course to take . the missing grades at some high schqpl in the state.

At present In Nebraska there are SOS school districts which maintain less than three months' school; 648 districts which main tain from three to six months' stMool, al most 1,000 school districts which maintain less than seven months' school. Some of tl!0 districts would receive $30, some $80, some $i0 and some $120 out of the appro priation, but each would then be able to hold seven months' school. It is estimated n these districts which will be assisted there are l&,0b0 school children; thus by the enactment of the bill into law 15,000 chil dren would be" permitted to attend school for seven months a year while other dis tricts would be affected very little.

Your favor of recent date, enclosing two resolutions against the ship subsidy bill now pending before congress and the other relating to a law fur the Inspection of cattle and sheep at shipping stations, is received. I do not think there can be any controversy concerning the last mentioned resolution. The ship subsidy bill, however Involves a very large proposition and f realize that it has two sides. I have al ways been opposed to a subsidy, however and still am, and expect to vote against the same. Yours very truly, , . . J J MCARTHY. I have your favor of February , en closing a resolution adopted by the Ne braska house of representatives. Instruct ing the Nebraska senators and requesting the representatives In congress to wuik and vote for the defeat of the so-called ship subsidy bill. It is Impossible for me to say whether the resolution was In tended to apply to the bill ss passed by the senate, or to the substitute of the house. They are not at all ailKei It Is doubtful whether the memltera voting for the resolution were fanillar with the pro visions of either measure. 1 therefore take pleasure in semilog ou, umier separate cover, 8.

Vours very tru.y, JOHN U K KNNKDT. Your letter of February tl sua duly re ceived. It reads ss follows: "In accord ance with the enclosed resolution I hereby hand ii a copy or the same." At the top of the page on which the resolution i copied, there is a clause stating that the following resolution was passed by the house ol representsllves of Nebraska, but thore Is no signature or date affixed to either copy. Assuming that these resolu tions were adopted recently, by the Ne braska legislature (one asking the mem bers of congress from Nebraska tj opp. se the bill for a ship subsidy; and the other asking the delegation to favor the enact ment if a law tor the Inspection of cattle and ehecp at the yards ot the shipper or farmer) I shall take pleasure In laying those copies before the respective commit tees of the senate, asking that they be considered. Iet me suggest for your guid ance, in case you have occasion to trans mit such documents as these, that they ought to bear the signatuie of the speaker of the house, attested by the clerk, and the date of adoption of the resolutions by the house should be clearly stated.
