In the committee, but they were voted

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 sub
stltuted bill Is less drastic than the
original. 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.

Free Hlsrh School Law.
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.
The tuition, which is fixed at 75 cents a
week, is raised ty taxation in his district.
The bill has passed the scrutiny of law
yers and it Is believed to obviate the fea
tures which have rendered other laws if
the same kind unconstitutional.
Senator King's bill to abolish the IV
mill levy collected by the state and re
distributed to the counties according tp
tfle school census was recommended for
passage by the committee of the whole.
Senator King declared the present sys
tem was adopted to aid the poo counties
of the west, which are now able to take
care of themselves. He also said it pro
duced fraud in padded census reports in
a number of counties in the state.
The three uniform divorce bills recom
mended last fall by a .meeting of divorce
experts were Introduced Into the senate
today by Senator King. The main bill
changes the general divorce law, makltg
It nvre stringent. Two companion meat-,
ures providing for the gathering of mar
riage and divorce statistic from the
county judgei and the district clerk.
'State to Aid School Districts.
A bill of Importance to the school dis
tricts of that section of the state In which
the revenues do not permit of a seven
months' school a year waj Introduced In
the house this morning by Doran, Henry,
Hill, Metzger and! Wilson. The bill pro
vides that the state shall come to the
financial assistance of those school dis
tricts which, though levying the maximum
rate of taxes, cannot maintain a seven
months' school,, to the end thst; every

The measure Is a .companion bill to the
King bill to repeal -the present half-mill
levy for the use of the public schools. 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.

RAILWAY MAIL CLERKS CAUGHT
ew Soath Dakota tstl-Psas
llaa Featnre Whleh Is
Surprising:.
I.atv
Spcf
SlOt X FALLS. S. P.. Feb. IS. (8p
lal). The discovery that railway mill
clerks are hot exempted from the provis
ions of the anti-pass lawroently enacted
by the state legislature, and vhlch al
ready has gone lnt effect, having con
tained an emergency clause, created a
sensation among the railway mall rlei'.o
here and elsewhere In the state whoae
routes are In South Dakota. By the over
sight. It now is violation of the law lor
the mall clerks to ride on the tialns ai d
handle the malls of Vncle Sam without
paying full fare. Some of the tmneluN
tors are collecting full fare from the rail
way mall clerks, while others are passing
them until they can receive Instruction
from headquarters.
In the cases of the mail clerks who a re
required to pay their fares, they pay out
for this purpose about as much as their
salary. It appears that their only relief
will be the tedious ne of having con
gress reimburse them for the sum ex
pended for railroad fares.
