Our I'rte Heliooln.
U" min ml v'ii two uliixita nf liikt viuinrt
kindly furnished by tbeStatoSupertendent
of Free Schools, wo i;et an Interesting view
of the progress of common scool education
in West Vir^inia for the post year. There
in an increase of 5 in the number of
school districts, and of 135 iu the number
ot school housed the present number
belug 15,8:19. The present value of school
property is $1,823,1)87, an increase of $70,Kl'J
for the year.
The enrollment tor J881-2 shows 103,554
children between six and sixteen years of
age, an iucrause of 4,180 for the year; tho
number from sixteen to twenty-one years
of ago is 48,044, an iucrease of 7711. More
than 10,000 children have been added to
the school rolls withiu the year. The at'
tendance was 02 'per cent of the enrollment,
showing a decrease of t per cent;
uud there was a falling oil' of 1M0 iu the
general average. Three thousand and
forty-live teachers were employed, an increase
of !14, and the average salary was
$'-'8 27 per month. The cost of maintaining
the schools for the year was $205,W)4
against $219,877 for the previous /ear.
it would he interesting to know the
number of colored children of school ago
iutheNtate, how .many of them uro attending
and what progress they are making.
We believe that no such record . is kept,
lint the color line is drawn through
our free school system and it ought to be
drawn through the statistics. According to
the census returns, in 1880 there were in
Ihis State 52,000 persons over ten years of
age who could not read and 85,1175 wlio
could not write, of whom JO, 13}) were colored.
lmiuir over half the whole colored
population over tea years of age.
JfthoStato is doing anything to overcome
this appalling mass of illiteracy and,
presumably, ignorance, it ought to be
shown. So fur as children of their own
color is concerned, it is the complaint of
colored men that they are at serious disadvantage.
In districts where there are no
colored schools they are not admitted to
the white schools, and so they get into no
schools at all.
The State is bound to make provision for
its children, white and black. It can not
afford to do leas. The education of every
colored child appeals to the selfish interest
of every white man. We ought to be glad
to open the doors and let them in.. If wfe
do not provide separate schools the alternative
is to admit them to the white schools,
and it may well be doubted whether they
can be kept out. ,
The convention of colored men which
met here yesterday wisely considered this,
the moat important, question which confronts
them. Without the advantages of
the free schools they have not a fair and
equal chance aa bread-winners?and who
will deny them that?
