THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, DECEMBER 7 1902 PREPARE FOR SUFFRAGISTS | Btate Officials Make Phnnu Entertain the Female Labbyists TEACHERS' SALARIES ON THE. INCREASE Nebraska 1" Already More Than Its Percentage on the tatormed Has Received of Indian dn. (From a Btaft Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Dec. 6.—(Special) — State house officials who expect to do business for the state after January 1 are all in a flutter. From one end of the bullding fo the other and between ends and in every nook and corner there is something doing. The cause of all this unusual activity Is | the proposed onslaught of the Women's Suffragist association. The women expect to establish and maintain headquarters here during the session of the legislature, which headquarters. it fs said, will be the hottest lobby that ever lobbied. The neis was officially reported to the state house today, and as the young woman | who anncunced it went from office to office she left behind her a wondering, startled, | gmsping array of office holders. Chairs that had been dusted an hour before were re- touched with silk handkerchiets, annual re- ports were forgotten and contracts were made with local florists. After these pre- | liminartes a consultation was called and is | still in session to decide what should be | done to entertain or at least win the good | will of the new lobbyess. The program is | still incomplete, but this much has been decided upon. Dick O'Neil), who wants to be something before the legislature ad- journs, was made the official entertainer. This honor was dene him, as he failed to attond the meeting at Tecumseh, because the train was late. H. A. Babcock, who is good at figures, will be the official guide and, with Miss Grexg, will escort the | women hither and thither. Governor Sav- | age and Treasurer Stuefer, If they are here when the detegation arrives, will be invited to sing “‘Back to the Woods.” J.| L. McBrien, because he is alleged to be | handsome, and Dr. Thomas, because he ap- | preciates a joke, will be a part of the en- tertalnment comgeitee. And from now un- til they get hers the women are the most talked of by state house doings. Fowler's Report Not Ready. The report of State Superintendent of Schools Fowler will not be ready for sev- eral days, but there is enough of it ready to show that there has been something do- ing in the school line in Nebraska during the year. The report will show that the average salary paid to teachers has been materfally Increased, In many countles sev- eral dollars a month. The centralization of schools, which the state superintendent would like to see In fact rather than (heory, is growing slowly, so much so in fact that it can scarcely be noticed, but nevertheless 1t is believed the growth is sure. Mr. Fowler expects much good to be ac- compliehed at the meeting of the State Teachers' association here from December 31 to January 2, Inclusive. Muah valuable time Is expected to be saved by the new manner of enrolling. The teachers, it they desire, may enroll before they come to Lin- coln. This is to be accomplished through the county superintendents. Gets More Than Its Due. Nebraska will not get that 5 per cent of the proceeds from the sale of Indian lands by the gevernment, which it has #o long wanted and expected. ‘In the re- port of Attorney General Prout, filed with the governor this morning, the attorney general closes his correspondence with the Intefior department in regard to the claim. The department informed Mr. Prout that Nebraska had been glven $27,043.99 as a per cent of the proceeds of sale of Indlan lands, which the state should not have recelved, and therefore the state will get no more.

He | simply desires, he said, that they measure up to the standard of the weakest of the district schools. The following ruling made made by Mr. Fowler over a year ago occasioned the talk that he was discriminating unfairly against parochial schools: In case exemption is clalmed on | of “atpendcnce at a private or parochial school as provided in this law, or on ac- | count of attendance upon suitable instruc- | tion elsewhere given, the public school in ‘me district where sich person may live must be the standard of requirements in order to mect the demands of this law. he state superintendent has no juris- diction or supervision over these private or parochlal echools,” said Mr. Fowler, “but we have in the statutes a compulsory attendance or compulsory education law which requires chiidren to attend school & | certain number of days during the year— | two-thirds the number of days that the | public school must be maintained by law iln the district. In many districts of the | | state the law does not require children to | | attend school more than forty days during the year, In many other districts it fs | | elghty days, and in the largest cities of the state the attendance need mot exceed 120 | days. Now, the question is simply this: | Can a child's attendance at one of these parochial schools where the English lan- guage is not spoken be credited to him for | the required number of days that he must | attend school during the year? Of course, ( it a child attends the public schools four | months in a district with less than 100 children, be may attend the parochial school where a forelgn language is spoken cxclusively the other eight months if he | wants to and no objection can be made. | “You see, then, that all the German | Lutheran churches in Nebraska are not particularly interested in this matter. I believe that in most of their achools the English langusge is taught, but I know there are a number of them where it is not even spoken.” YORK’S WINTER BUILDING BOOM Many Public and Business Blocks Be- sides a Score of Residences count | | | | te Go Up.
