PROMOTING STATE EDUCATION, Superintendent Corbett Getting Informa- tion Touching Provisions of the Law. LINCOLN, July 20.—(Special.)—Superin- tendent of Publtc Instruction Corbett is now preparing and sending out ecirculars to the varlous county superintendents, asking for information in regard to the expected num- ber of pupils to be in attendance the coming year, grades, number of teachers and other work which s expected to be carried on. This {nformation Is sought in order that an accredited list of schools may be prepared to comply with the provisions of a bill passed at the lust session of the legislature relative to free attendance at public High schools. The law did not pass with the emergeney clause and will not become operative until August 1 In section 1 the bill provides “that all public High schools in this state, which shall “Aside from this,” continues General | be datermined b ¢ f ote: ed by the state department of Churchill, “it is a general settled prineiple | sducation to be properly equipped as o of law that where the statute points out the | taachers, applances and course of study. doing of a certain thing in a specified manner as (n this cise, under the rules and regula- tions of the secretary of the interior, is equivalent to saying that it shall not be done in any other manner.” The attoruey general holds that “the con ferriug of the right of ecitizenship does not shall hereafter be open to attendance by any person of school age residing outside the dis- trict who Is a resident of the state and whose education cannot profitably be carried further in the public school of the district of his residence.” Prascribed rules for such attendance are mecessarily confer upon them the power of | given, and section 2 provides that: @laposition of property contrary to the e state department of education shall statute.
