COMPULSORY EDUCATION. : A Suggestion to Candidates in tbe Present Campaign Hermitage, (Lowndesville P. O.) 8. C., June 18 , Kdltor Press and Banner: Dear sir:?In this enlightened |19th century a nation Is ranked among tbe otber nations or tbe world, not only according to tbe number of soldiers sbe can send to the field or according to the nnmber of her men of war, but also according to ber educational standing, wbloh standing Is established by the number of literate and illiterate of her citizens. Tbe Americans do not underestimate the Importance of education, Indeed their immigration laws forbid tbe admission upon American soil the emigrant who knows not how to read and write, and especially, South Carolina doe not admit to vote-those of ber oitlzens who do not know how to read, write and even explain tbe constitution. Now, is there any reason why tbe Americans, who keep tbe lead in bo many instances, dV-a-M nnf /utnnnir (ho flrat. rnnt 111 Lhfl mat. ter of education. But this end will never be attained as long as all the states will not bave upon tbelr statute books a law obliging, under 1 penalty, eaob head of a family to send bis children to Bcbool. , Being understood tbat tbe RiateB provide for " free sobools, the question 1r to know if under cover of "paternal authority or indlvlda) f liberty" the head of the family has the right t to not send bis children to school, to deprive them of tbelr Intellectual food, and the coun- f try at large of the full value sbe is entitled to obtain from eaob of her citizens by means of education. "1, therefore, suggest that the can- i dldaterin tbe present campaign should ex- J press their views upon the advisability of a law obliging, under penalty, each bead of a family to send bis children to school under tbe present system of free schools. The discussion of a matter otsuch prime Importance would not fail assuredly to be Interesting as well as Instructive lor tbe people. Yours, very truly. E. C. Meechlne. ^ TROY NOTES.
