Google
This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other maiginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.
Usage guidelines
Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing tliis resource, we liave taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.
We also ask that you:
+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.
+ Refrain fivm automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.
+ Maintain attributionTht GoogXt "watermark" you see on each file is essential for in forming people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.
+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liabili^ can be quite severe.

THE STATE SCHOOL FUND,
This fund is invested as follows:
Twenty Missouri State Bonds 9 20^000 09
United States 6-20'8 86,000 00
United States Consols 11,950 00
In the Treasury 1,591,013 8S
$1,708,963 82
Against 81,678,604 8S
one year ago. *•
The amount in the treasury consists lor the most part of bonds of
the United States, not yet reported to this office.
The income of the fund was for the year closing September 30, 1868,
999,055 50, which, under the law, was added to the '^State School
Moneys,'' which are to be distributed to the counties for the benefit
of public schools. The amount transferred from the general revenue
of the State to tlie State school moneys was $217,011 10, and $268,-
019 60 have been paid to the several county treasurers during the
same period.
The attention of the General Assembly is again called to the fact
that there is no law which, under strict construction, authorizes
the distribution of the State School Moneys, and that such payments
have been made by the State officers only in the belief that the^
spirit of the law was being followed out by them.

THE SEMINARY FUxND.
This fond for the benefit of the State University, at Columbia, is in-
vested
In United States 5-2(ys $100,000 00
In the Bank at Ohillicothe 23,000 00
In the Treasury.. 707 50
$123,707 10
Against 123,603 90
one year ago.
The income of the fund amounted to—
From the United States $ 8,377 50
From bank dividend 2,300 00
•
$10,6 i 7 50
To which were added 11,388 00
from the general revenue of the State.
A large portion of the money in the treasury credited to the State
School Fund, as well as the Seminary Fund, is liable to be drawn out
again upon certificates from the Register of Lands, that the lands for
which the money was paid into the treasury were patented by him or
his predecessors through errors in his books ; in this manner $11,636
S3 have been drawn back during the year out of the Internal Im-
provement Fund, and $2,387 77 out of the Saline Fund, both of which
funds are now, by law, merged into the Public School Fund.
It is, therefore, not safe to recommend the investment of the bal-
ance of the fund until the absolute certainty is established that no
more erroneous patents ior State lands will be returned for refunding
of the purchase money, with interest

REPORT
Crrr op Jbfperson, Treasury Department,)
Auditor's Office, December 31, 1868. )
As required by law, I herewith present to the General Assembly
my biennial report on the condition of the State finances for the two
fiscal years from October 1st, 1866, to September oO,* 1^67, and from
October 1st, 1867, to December 31st, 1868. A law enacted at the last
session of the Twenty-Fourth General Assembly fixes the close of
the fiscal year with the last day of December, instead of the thirtieth
of September, as was the case under former laws. The fiscal year
closing this day extends, therefore, over fifteen months. For the
sake of a proper comparison with other years of normal length, I
have stated the monthly aggregates and balances in the respective
tables of "Receipts," "Disbursements," and "Balances" for the
twelve months closing with the thirtieth September separate from
the three months which end with this day.
The total of receipts irom all sources was :
First year $7,167,357 83
Second year. 4,0:^2,704 73
Extra three months 5,427,810 71
The total of expenditures on Auditor's warrants was :
First year $1,939,516 fiO
Second year 2,939,048 57
Extra three months 668,940 16
The total of redemptions of State obligations during the same
period, exclusive of Auditor's warrants, as reported by the legislative
committee in proper form, is :
Wolf scalp certificates $ 2,449 00
Defense warrants 296,780 00
Union military bonds, with interest 4,728,434 19
There were also redeemed through Auditor's warrants :
354 revenue bonds of 1861 with accrued interest $452,670 00
32 old State bonds of 1837 with accreted interest 39,803 00
182
BEPORT.
Among the receipts for the year 1868 are also 5190 State bonds re-
ceived from the purchaser of the St. Louis & Iron Mountain Railroad,
from the North Missouri Kailroad, the Pacific Eailroad and the Mis-
souri Valley Railroad, which have not yet been reported to this
ofSce in such form as to cancel them oif our registers.
The largest receipts into the Treasury during the first year (1867)
are from the Federal Government for the war indemnity, on which
account the State has received in full the following net amounts :
Into the State Treasury '. $3,291,596 72
Into the State Interest Fund ^. . . 3,070,682 63
Sixty-three old State bonds^ with accrued interest 69,930 00
Coupons past due, from other Missouri State bonds held
by the Department of the Interior 40,080 00
$6,472,289 35
*
The available funds in the treasury subject to ordinary appropri-
ation amounted in the first year to $iS53,9]9 53; the amounts drawn
by authority of appropriations were $i,100,736 32, leaving a deficit of
$446,816 79. In the second year we had the sum of $1,122,754 37 com-
ing into the treasury available for appropriations, and have actually
drawn for $959,493 72, reducing the deficit of the first year to $283,-
656 14.
The receipts and expenditures of the last three months have bal-
anced this deficiency, and leave now on hand subject to appropriation
the small sum of $21,585 21.
In tabular form the above will appear thus :

The Union Military Fund is now at the disposition of the General
Assembly, because only very few Union Military Bonds and Defense
Warrants remain unredeemed. If we, therefore, add this fund to the
available means in the treasury, we have now a balance subject to
appropriation of $^88,239 19.
This sum, together with the receipts during the year 1869, will suf-
fice for ordinary appropriations.
A law should be enacted to make this transfer, and to finally wind
up the Union Military Fund.
The probable income from all sources during the year 1869. and
available for appropriations, m^^ be estimated at $975,000 00, and the
ordinary expenditures will require the following sums:
REPORT. 18S
For civil list «197,486 00
For assessing and collecting the revenue 118,6^0 00
For costs in criminal cases 180,000 00
For pay of General Assembly 100,000 00
For contingent expenses of General Assembly 100,('00 00
For taking the census 80,000 00
For laws and journals 20,000 00
For Supreme Court '. 10,000 00
For arresting fugitives from justice, and apprehension of
criminals 6,000 00
For repairs of Capitol and Governor's mansion 16,000 00
For contingent expenses of the executive offices 7,000 00
For contingent expenses of elections 1,260 00
For Board of Agriculture 6,000 00
For Board of Immigration 2,000 00
For public charities (asylums) 80,000 06
For District Courts . 2,600 00
For the Penitentiary 85,000 06
For interest on Old State Debt and War Debt 33,000 00
or a total of $991,725 00. This sum is equal to a tax of 21-100 per
cent., or 21 cents on the $100 00, assessed valuations, and is more than
the exact amount remaining to the State out of the revenue tax of 1
Ser cent, alter deducting the portion transferred to the State School
[oneys, and for the benefit of the State University. Of the 26 cents
revenue tax levied by the State, •
6 25 cents go the State School Moneys,
0 328125 cents go to the State University, and
1S-421S75 remain for the other expenses of the State.
It is apparent from this that we can just meet the regular and
necessary expenses of the State with our present tax of 2^ mills (and
that no extra appropriations should be made), if the Union Military-
Fund, and receipts into it, are by law transiferred to the Revenue
Fund. The appropriations for the pay of civil officers, costs in crimi-
nal cases and a few others for the closing year have been exhausted,
and certificates of indebtedness have been issued, for the amounts oi
which I beg to refer to the list given in the body of this report.
COSTS m CRIMINAL CASBS.
The State is liable for these in cases of conviction for a crime which
is punishable solely by imprisonment in the penitentiaiy, or by death,
and when the partv convicted is insolvent or acquitted, or the case
continued generally. This limits the expenses of criminal jurisdio-
tion borne by the State to a comparatively narrow circle; but the
nat'ire of the offenses for which the State is paying the costs ot a
prosecution is such that prompt and energetic action by the courts is
a duty which the State owes to every inhabitant. The protection of
lite and property, and the certain punishment of offenses against
either, is one of the very first principles of civil govemmenu. The
expenses of such prosecution are very properly borne by the State at
larsre ; the whole commonwealth owes protection to a rich county as
well as to the poor and sparsely settled neighborhood. It is therelore
an unfounded complaint which is so often heard against the large
184 RSPOBT.
amounts appropriated (or necessary) for costs in criminal cases, and
in no instance nave my estimates been adopted by the legislature:
tiieyhave always appropriated less than I had reason to believe woula
be required. The consequence has been a great injustice to the
Seople and the constituents of the legislators; the law demands
utiesof sherifTs, constables, justices of the peace, clerks, witnesses
and jailors, and nxes a compensation for such services. In most cases
the pay is not received until more than six months after the duty was
performed, often not before two vears have gone by, and when then
the legislature has failed to make the necessary appropriation (in
other words, failed to authorize the Auditor to draw a warranty
although the money is lying idle in the Treasury), another six months
or more elapse before payment can be obtained. Such delay is not
calculated to increase the faithfulness and energy of the officers, who
are commissioned to bring criminals to justice. I would therefore
most urgently insist, that the appropriation for this purpose be made
ample apd large enough to leave a balance for the succeeding year,
rather than a deficiency. The frequency of such criminal cases will
diminish, the belter we advance again in the peaceful pursuits of
industry; the disturbed condition consequent upon the close of a
bitter civil war, may be considered as nearly passed away. If this be
the case, the amounts paid for criminal prosecutions will become less
with every year of our prosperity.
/ CIVIL . LIST.
My estimates for this appropriation can be made with more cer-
tainty than others, because the amount of salary which the laws
grant to each and every civil officer in the State is known precisely.
Only in the amounts required for the officers of the two asylums at
Fulton, and for the employees at the Penitentiary, the exact sums
cannot be given before hand, the number of persons thus employed
being regulated by the number of inmates in those institutions. A
reduction in the appropriation below the estimates from this office,
will, however^ neither diminish the number of officers, nor relieve the
State from obligation to pay them.*
CONTINGBNT EXPENSES OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
The amounts allowed by the legislatures under this head are un-
necessarily large. Common laborers, who are satisfied with $1 75
for a day's work of ten hours, unfrequently receive $3 50 for six hours
very light employment, and clerical labor engaged during only a few
days at the close of a session, has brought mileage and full pay. To
guard against such abuses, the act of January 14, 186S (acts 1868,
page 52), was passed, but guards only against additional pay to the
**omcers'' of either house, and says nothing about other employes."
The Auditor is powerless to stop uvauthorized or unnecessary ex-
penses under this head^ the responsibility for them rests with the
Ueneral Assembly alone.

BEPAIRS OF PUBLIC BUILDmGS.
The condition of the ceilings in the Senate Chamber and in the
House of Representatives rendered the seats of the members of the
General Assembly exceedingly daneerons. The Commissioner has
had the one already thoroughly repaired, but the other is still in its
unsafe condition. The roof of the armory building is reported unsafe
also. The fence around the Capitol grounds should be wanting no
longer, most of the material for it is on hand.
qoyebnor's mansion.
The structure which is at present bv courtesy dignified with the
name of an executive mansion, is totally out of repair, inconvenient^
unbecoming the digniiv of the office, and by no means an honor to
the State. Already eight years ago an act was passed providing for
the erection of a new mansion, which with republican simplicity
should unite the objects of giving a convenient and pleasant home to
our chief executive, as well as being emblematic of the dignity of a
great State. During the civil war we could not afford to spend money
for such purposes; but we are well able to do so now, and it is hoped
that if additional legislation is found to be necessary, the present
General Assembly will direct the immediate erection of such an
edifice.
RETRENCHMENT.
Every General Assembly since 1862 has endeavored to reduce the
expenses of the State to a minimum, and as far as salaries and fees of
public officers are concerned^ there can be no question that the lowest
figure has been reached. The few suggestions I can offer in this
respect will commend themselves :
The office of Soldier's Claim Agent may now be dispensed with,
which will save between $3,000 and $4,000 per annum.
The Military Institute at Lexington is of benefit only to that city.; it
tfhould be given to the corporation, saving $3,000 per annum.
The Judges of the Supreme Court should each receive a salary of
$5,000 annuallv.
The City of Kansas^ h iving the benefit of a special criminal courts
should be obliged to have a jail, or pay the expense of transportation
of prisoners from the jail in Independence to the court in Kansas
Oitv.
The pay of Judges of Common Pleas Courts should come from the
Qounty enjoying the privilege of such courts.
CONTROL OVER BANKING AND INSURANCE INSTITUTIONS.
The public desire, and the above named corporations expect that the
State exercise some supervision over these institutions for the pur-
pose of officially informing the community as to the safety and good
management of these now almost indispensible associations. The
State ot New York has a separate department for the control of banks
and insurance offices; our State might follow the example of Ohio,
and intrust the State Auditor with the duty ; this seems, at least, to
be the general opinion expressed in the numerous letters on this sub-
ject addressed to this office.
186 BEPO&T.
If such action should be had, the Auditor will require at least one
additional assistant
STATE BANES.
There are now only two banks in the State organized under the
General Bank Act of 1857, but the control over them has ceased since
the o£Sce of Bank Commissioner was abolished. Under their charters
they pay one per cent, on the paid-up capital into the treasury in lieu
of all other taxes. Evidently this taxes them more for State pur-
poses than all other property, including the stock of corporations, is
drawn upon ; the total of iState taxes is now one-half per cent. In
view of this injustice, and referring to a late decision of our Supreme
Court on this point, some action of the General Assembly is desira-
ble.
TAXES FROM BAILROABS.
All the railroads in the State are now subject to taxation the same
as other property. The charters of two (the Hannibal & St. Joseph
Railroad and the Pacific Railroad,) establish a modus for the levy
and collection of the State taxes; the same should be made to apply
to all the other railroads. It may be remarked, however, that no
county taxes are paid by any of them, and if it is the desire of the
General Assembly to provide for a revenue for county purposes from
these large public works, an act should be passed regulating the levy
and collection of the same.
The tax of ten per cent, on the gross earnings of the railroads men
tioned in the first section of the ordinance adopted by the people in
1865 has not been collected ; the State officers have not come to a
decision whether it can or cannot be enforced.
RELIEF TO COLLECTORS.
During the times of invasion by armed forces, which overpowered
the resistance of civil officers, there was justice and equitv in grant-
ing relief to Collectors for the public money taken Irom tfcem by an
armed public enemy. These times have happily passed now, and I
recommend the unconditional repeal of the relief act (§§ 131-136,
Chapter 13, General Statutes, as amended by acts 1868, p. i48), which
has caused more embarrassment to the State Auditor than any other
duty devolving upon him. The public safety and the interest of the
State demand that Collectors be personally responsible lor losses of
{)ublic money. It is, perhaps, generally by their ill judgment or neg-
igence that they can lose the public funds or have them stolen from
them.
POWER OP CIROUIT COURTS OVER STATS T4XATION AND DISTRESS WARRANTS.
During my administration some cases have come into the Circuit
Courts by decision of which the State has lost two years' taxes from
one county and the special tax of 1863 from another, simply because,
in my opinion, the proper State officer, the Attorney General, was not
aware of the pending of the cases, nor was the Auditor. The decis-
ions enjoin the collection of the whole tax book upon the petition of
but one individual tax-payer. That the Circuit Courts have no power
REPOKT. 187
to relieve a county from paying a tax properly due from it. there can
be no question • still this power has been exercised, and tne General
Assembly should by law prohibit the recurrence of such intermed-
dling with the State finances, which, if permitted, might result in the
suspension of all collections of taxes
Another Circuit Court has persisted in enjoining the execution of a
distress warrant against the securities ot a defaulting Collector of
Cooper county. The Attorney General obtained a decision in favor
of the State in both the District and Supreme Court, yet the injunc-
tions against the -Auditor have been renewed from the same Circuit
Court and transferred to the courts in Moniteau and Cole counties.
An act of the General Assembly should either entirely restrain Cir-
cuit Courts from jurisdiction over such matters, or at least regulate
proceedings so as to protect the interest of the State.
THE REVENUE LAW.
The foundation of all public revenues, and their full collection, is in
the assessment ol taxable objects. If the assessment be incorrect,
incomplete, and otherwise untrue, the taxes cannot be collected , nor
can they be levied with justice and equitably upon all those liable for
them. The policy of having assessors elected on a general ticket, and
depending upon party nommations, has not always put the best qual-
ified men into this important office. To secure a correct and complete
assessment, and one which will represent the true cash values of tax-
able objects, it has been suggested to empower to County Courts to
appoint assessors in every Congressional township, or in sparsely set-
tled counties, in convenient districts; and it is hoped that by such
means a full and true assessment would be obtained These several
township — or district — assessors should then, together with the pre-
siding justice of the County Court, the Surveyor, and County Clerk,
form the County Board of Equalization.
Thc^ compensation for collecting the revenue has, by an act of the
last General Assembly, been considerably reduced, which, in the
majority of counties, brings it to a point below living expenses.
There may be justice in reducing the compensation of collectors in a
few large, rich counties, which pay a heavy revenue ; but the labors
of a collector in a less densely populated county are at least as ardu-
ous, if not more so, as those of his brother officer in wealthy districts,
and he should receive a j ist compensation. The commissions might
be graded by the amounts of revenue to be collected in any one
county, so as lo equalize the compensation somewhat.
With these exceptions, and those of a few trifling inaccuracies in
our present law, I consider it as near perfect as any State can desire.
The object being the sure and prompt collection of the necessary
revenue, the present law accomplishes it much better than other sys-
tems, and I would urgently counsel against any important changes
in our system, which is now familiar to the people and its officers, and
has stood the test of four years.
In this relation, I desire to refer to the sales of real estate upon
which a judgment and execution for delinquent taxes has been ob-
tained (tax sales.) The State has the power to levy a tax; then it
must have the power to enforce its collection. Every owner of
property knows full well that a tax upon his property becomes due
once a year. The State obtains judgment against the property upon
which the taxes remain due and unpaid, and induces parties to buy
such real estate under execution, conveying, by the solemn authority
18S REPORT.
of the State, the right and title to the purchaser. Thus, the State ob-
tains its due taxes, and counties and public schools likewise, through
the authority of the State. It is, then, imperative upon the State to
protect the purchaser in his acquired rights; but, when the same
State, by its Courts, decides such conveyances to be null and void,
where is then the faith of the State? How can it expect to raise any
revenue at all, except from motives oi patriotism, and not because
the law enforces their pavment?
Our present revenue law makes the tax deed "conclusive evi-
dence'' that each and every act and thing required to be done by the
provisions of the revenue law has been complied with. This would
seem to make a tax deed as good and valid as any other conveyance
of property under execution of a decree of a court But a decision of
ouf Supreme Court, rendered a year ago, has been understood to go
behind the "tax deed,'^ and to require proof that the property sold
was assessed to the real owner. Under this impression, the tax sales
of last October have been very small in some counties.
The impression is certainly erroneous. The Courts cannot, nor will
they, make or amend, but only apply the laws. But, if some action is
deemed necessary, the General Assembly should not fail to make the
lax sale, after tHe time for redemption has elapsed, as absolute and
incontrovertible a conveyance of the title to the property as laws
can make it. In as much as the State is the grantor, it might be
found expedient in all cases in courts, when the title acquired by tax
deeds is involved, to require the courts to notify the Attorney General,
and to authorize this otficer to defend, either himself or by the best
legal talent, at the expense of the State, such title. A few such cases,
properly managed by the State, would eecure to us the full collec
tion of all the revenue which we levy for State, county, and school
purposes without so large "forfeited lists," from which, in many cases,
nothing is realized.
The dct on pages 149-^56, acts 1867, purports to be an amendment
of chapter 13, General Statutes, but is in fact intended only for one
of the numerous special laws for the city of St. Louis, and is a fair
sample of the absurdity of most such special legislation. By section
6 of this amended act, (if considered a general law, as it evidently
reads) every county clerk, from Clark to McDonald, or from Adair to
Wriffht, is required to "transmit to the mayor of the city of St. Louis''
an abstract ot the tax book. Again, the county clerk of St. Louis is,
by th« same section required to make and furnish the abstract of the
tax books, when the book never comes into his hands.
The General Assembly should pass an explanatory act command-
ing this piece of special legislation to be considered only as a local
law referring to the city of St. Louis, but that the sections pretend*
ing to amend chapter 13 General Statutes, shall not applv to any
other county. If such explanatory act is not passed, it wi.l be neces-
sary to repeal the act of 1867, and re-enact chapter 13 General
Statutes.
RATE OF TAXATION.
The rates of taxation for 1868, which were

do not apply any further, and unless the General Assembly enacts i

law establishing a different rate, they ^ill, by existing laws, be for
1869 and 1870
Poll Tax 1 dollar.
Revenue Tax 4 mills.
State Interest Tax 2:^ mills.
I recommend again the abolishment of the poll tax, which costs
28 cents to levy lor every name, and yields but very little, except
from persons paying tax on property. The rates of tasatiou for 18t>9
and 1S70 might again be fixed at
Revenue Tax 2-J mills.
State Interest Tax 2^ mills.
Trusting that no extraordinary appropriations will become neces-
tary, otherwise the revenue tax will not suffice.
BOARD OF EQUALIZATION.
The work of this body in 1867 was the first step toward an Approxi-
mately correct and equalized taxation. The principles established by
the board will guide its future action, and may be briefly stated :
1. The board considers the value of real and personal property to
be the result of intrinsic value, multiplied by proximity of markets
or facilities of cheap transportation and density of population.
2. When the average valuation per acre of improved and of unim-
proved lands in any one county is by the judgment of the board
raised or lowered, it is done by either ten per cent or multiples of
ten per cent., and the aggregate valuation of the real estate in the
county is accordingly fixed at a minimum, below which the county
board of equalization must not permit the aggregate on the assessors
book to go. The board, at its first session, had established the mini-
mum valuations for both the years 1867 and 1868. In 1868 only the
county of 'Boone failed to comply with the law and assessed its total
taxable property at$5,881,23j instead of $7,518,543, as fixed by the
State Board.
The influence of this board upon our State finances has been- so
marked, and the principle of political economy upon which it is act^
ing has been so well understood, that notwithstanding the errors of
judgment which the board at its first session may have committed,
the last General Assembly refused to alter or amend the law regulat-
lag the proceedings of the board.
The practice of the board at its first session excepted the assess-
ment ot St. Louis Irom consideration of the State board, probably
upon the presumption that the city and county of St. Louis, with their
€txpenditures being so much larger than those of the whole State,
would be obliged to comply with the letter of the law, which require*
property to be assessed '' at its true value in cash." But, by the latest
official reports from the competent city officers, we learn that real
estate in tlie city of St. Louis is assessed at only 43 per cent, of its
market value. Even if the valuations in the counties outside of St
Louis do not represent the exact figures of true cash value, so much is
certain, Jiat in almost every instance they will not be so far beloW the
truth as 57 per cent. The method applied by the cit^ authorities of
8t. Louis in finding the true cash value of real estate is probably the
•afest which ever could be employed. It will be almost impracticable
for the State board to estimate the value of city property of St. Louis
by any other rule. That St. Louis, with its vast wealth, should contri-
bute to the support of the State only 48 per cent of its due share it
190 REPOBT.
neither right nor defensible ; but how to remedy the evil^ with the
perplexing multiplicity of special laws governing St. Louis, is not easy
to suggest, without a radical, sweeping repeal of all exceptional legis-
lation touching St. Louis, and putting it under the operation of the
general laws of the State.
In no cas^, however, should this failing of St. Louis be made the
basis of assessments in the State at large. If every county is to be
assessed at less than its true cash values, we shall be bankrupt in less
than a year. The figures given elsewhere in this report show that
with our low rate of taxation we cannot afford to assess property at
only half price, without at the same time reducing our revenues to
only half the amount which is required for ordinary expenses under
economical management.
REVIEW.
The labors of this department for the past four years have been of
a magnitude and importance which is ineffaceably impressed upon the
condition of our State. When we took char/^e of the administration
the State groaned under a debt of thirty six millions of dollars ; the
taxation was heavy, and there was no prospect for paying the fright-
fully accumulating sums of past-duo interest upon our bond^^d debt,
nor the coupons n^aturing. But efforts were at once made to restore
the State's financial honor, and measures were proposed looking
toward a full and just payment of the obligations toward our credit-
ors. Circumstances favored us, and the determination of the last two
General Assemblies accomplished, by the joint action of all the finan-
cial wisdom and energy ot those bodies, what had been our fervent
hope.
Our State debt has now been reduced to about one-half of what it
amounted to four years ago ; the School Fund has been doubled ; the
floating debt has been paid; the taxation has been reduced nearly
one-half, and the credit of our State ranges higher than that of any
other former slave Slate.
Besides, the revenues of the State have been gradually assuming
order and regularity; the arrears of taxes have been levied and col-
lected in seventy-two counties, so that at the present day, with two
exceptions, all the counties in the State levy and collect the current
revenue. The State can, therefore, with good assurance, estimate the
revenues which are to come into the treasury, and the expenditures
which are required for the administration.
With economy and strictest order in the management of our State
finances, we may well feel satisfied that the future before us is bright
with the hope of prosperity such as only in a regenerated free Stata
can be witnessed.
In retiring, I cannot close my official labors without publicly ex-
pressing my gratitude to my able and efficient corps of clerks, who
nave richly earned their respective salaries by their strict attention
and fidelity to the interests of the State ; nor would I forget, in my
closing review, to thank the numerous assessors, clerks and collectors
in every part of the State, who have so faithfully assisted this office in
its efforts toward bringing regularity and order into the administration
of our revenue.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES.
To the Honorable General Assembly of the /State of Missouri :
At every regular biennial meeting of the Honorable General As-
sembly, the trustees are required to render an account of their
stewardship, to make a full statement of the condition, of the wants
and necessities of the institution, and to communicate everything
that is in or that may accrue to its interests.
A benign Providence watched over it the last two years, as it did
from its very foundation. Few and far between have been its trials.
Moral and physical evils found no ingress ; peace and concord reigned
within ; prosperity and progress marked every day of its existence.
For these blessings we can only be profoundly thankful to Him,
who provides for the poor and the needy, for the blind as well as the
seeing.
Since our last report, three members have withdrawn from the
board, viz : Rev. Dr. Nelson, Hon. W, Ourrier, Hon. Felix Coste ; and
three others have been appointed in their place, viz : Rev. Dr. Nic-
coUs, Hon. J. Z. Smith, Hon. S. Ridgley.
The retiring members have the thanks of the board and of the
institution, for duties well and cheerfully performed.
There were also some changes made among the officers. The new
Principal, Mr. H. R. Foster, has fully met the expectation of the board.
He has proven himself a competent teacher, a mild but firm discipli-
narian, and the possessor of superior administrative ability.
Mr. Willhartitzhashad the charge of the musical department for
the last sixteen months. He has given entire satisfaction. He has
a sufficient and able corps of assistants — all of our own raising and
training.
We regret to have had to part with Mr. Daniel S. Wilkinson, our
graduate, and late an assistant teacher of music in this institute. He
has received and accepted a call as principal of the musical depart-
ment in the Iowa Institution for the Blind, a highly honorable and a
far more profitable position than he held here.
Also Mrs. Elizabeth Houck,our oldest graduate, and subsequently
a very efficient teacher, both of music and of the primary classes, hat
accepted the more responsible and more remunerative position as
principal of the same branches, in the Kansas Institution for the Blind.
Their places have been satisfactorily filled again by our own pupils.
This is a most ^ratifying result It proves that the system and
thoroughness of this institution are being appreciated in other States,
and that our pupils are being selected as the propagandists and most
practical instructors of the plan and mode of instruction, so long and
[6]
80 successfully followed in this institution. We have, of course, ref-
erence to the "Braille System," of which mention has so often been
made in our former reports that we may dispense with it at present,
and merely recite the above facts.
A recapitulation of our "Fifth Biennial Report," of 1866, would
be perfectly in its place now. There the necessities of this institution
have been fully demonstrated ; but, unfortunately, for some cause or
other, have not been attended to.
The inadequacy of the present accommodations has before been
clearly shown, and the experience of two more years has rendered it
only more glaring. On the score of an efficient school organization,
of a judicious classification of the scholars, and of hygienic require-
ments, there is too much crowding everywhere.
Mental and musical studies cannot be pursued in the same room,
not even in rooms contiguous to each other; but there is no altema*
tive left in this institution.
The sound of musical instruments is heard everywhere, very much
to the annoyance, and to the detriment of those who follow other pur-
suits.
Ta the invalid, this crowding, this constant din of wind and
stringed instruments is a perfect torture. Until of late there has not
been an infirmary room in this institution. In case of sickness oar
kind matron, Mrs. Wilkinson, has often generally surrendered her own
room ; a room generally the £:reat rendezvous of the pupils, who call
for every trifle on their lovea matron, and thus rendering confusion
worse confounded.
During last vacation, an old smoke house on the premises, was
converted into a class room and a servants room. The space between
the smoke house and the main building was walled up, and a small
room for an infirmary gained, at a cost of $750, which temporarily re-
lieved a pressing necessity. It was not more than finished when it
was occupied by an aggravated case of typhoid fever, which, most
probably would have proved fatal but for ttis airy and quiet room.
There are space for two beds in it which are appropriated for male
pupils. Where female pupils should be placed in case of sickness,
we are at a loss to say. They cannot remain in their dormitories, for
these are not heated except through the halls, which is wholly insuf-
ficient for a sick room. Even if the patient in bed could endure it the
nurse certainly could not. The generosity of the matron should not
be taxed too much. It will not do to make a voluntary act compul-
sory.
The addition of a wing to the main building, already mentioned
in our last report, is imperatively demanded.
To put up the wing as per plan furnished by the architect, and to
make the most indispensable repairs to the main buildins:, the sum of
S20,000 wilt be required, and the appropriation is respectfully asked for.
Liberal as the Honorable General Assembly has always been to
this institution, yet it is demonstrable that every dollar spent on this
property was an admirable investment, for the building and grounds
will bring, at least, double the amount the State paid for them.
The improvements indicated are highly demanded on the score of
the above, and many other considerations. It is confidently hoped
that they will not be longer delaved.
The treasurer exhibits that the expenditures of the institution for
the last two years amounted to $38,716 75, namely, $19,067 20 for
1866-7, and $19,648 55 for 1867-8, which is $13,715 75 more than th#
amount appropriated by the last Honorable General Assembly.

These increased expenses were met by a small surplus in the
treasury, the result of savings of previous years. But by the let of
March next there will not be a dollar left to the credit of the iustitu*
tion. Its doors will have to be closed unless the Honorable General
Assembly comes with accustomed liberality speedily to its relief.
The increased number of pupils, the enhanced cost of all articles
of food and raiment, the higher wages required and paid to officers
and employees make a larger permanent appropriation indispensably
necessary. The great deficiency in musical instruments, in books,
school apparatus, is wholy due to the insufficiency of means to supply
ihem.
Constant repairs of old, nearly worn out musical instruments, the
purchase of low-priced pianos, is a very poor economy, but only re-
sorted to from want of means to do better. A regular annual appro-
priation of $20,000 would obviate all these difficulties, and enable the
institution to effect all the good which the spirit of the age demands,
and to maintain the high rank as an educational and charitable insti*
tution which it claims, and which is conceded to it, not only in this
country, but also abroad.
Twenty thousand dollars a year now is onl^ a little more than the
910,000 a year received prior to the late war oi the rebellion, and are
respectfully and urgently asked for.
In comparing the cost of educating the blind in this institution,
with that of like institutions in other States, the economical administra-
tion of this institution will become manifest. Even the younger insti-
tutions in the West, have incomes chiefly from their respective States,
largely in excess of this, which enables them t(T set out from the
point, which this institution has attained after years of hard struggle
and labor.
Most of the sister institutions in the United States are also more
or less endowed by legacies and bequests, which furnish resources
independent of State aid.
This institution has not been so fortunate yet, to be remembered
in that way, though quite a number of wealthy and reputed philan-
thropists have died in Missouri since the origin of this institution.
It is hoped that this reminder will hav^e the desired effect. Until
then the aid derived from the State is its sole dependence, which we
feel confident will be commensurate to the necessities above in-
dicated.
It has become customary for county or municipal authorities, and
even for parents or guardians, in sending pupils, to transfer all further
care of them to the institution, so that pupils when discharged have
no place where to go, and none to care for them in anv shape or form.
They are left at once to the cold charity of the world. The institu-
tion cannot retain them, nor this city or community provide for them.
It is therefore desirable that the Statutes be so amended as to require
parents or guardians to obligate themselves to receive the pupils
when discharged by the proper authorities of the institution.
For a more detailed account concerning the management and
interior condition of the institution, the report of the principal is re-
spectfully referred to, where the number, name, residence, and ulti-
mate destiny of the pupils is given; also the names of officers, teach-
ers, and employees, and their respective salaries; also, a list of bookr
18J
school apparatus, and musical instraments now in use, and their
respective pecuniary value.

Five of those discharged were properly teachers, but had been
reported as pupils ; three had completed their course ; sixteen were
discharged at their own request to pursue their trade, or to teach;
three had their sight restored by successful surgical operation ; two
removed from the State; and six were either withdrawn by their
friends, by reason of ill health, or from being otherwise disqualified
from receiving further benefit from the institution.
The foregoing figures exhibit a marked increase in the number of
pupils over any previous year, and we may reasonably infer from this
increase that a renewed interest in our work is being awakened
among those who favor education and progress. But we have failed
to reach all those within our State who ought to be here receiving the
benefits and advantages provided for them through the liberality of a
munificent people. We would therefore call upon you, and through
you upon the humane in every part of our State, to make known the
object and designs of this institution, and to influence all eligible sub-
jects to avail themselves of the opportunities here afforded them of
becoming useful, respectable and independent members of society.
It should be understood however, that this is neither an asylum, nor a
hospital, but an educational institution, and mental and physical
capacity are essential to the successful enjoyment of its privileges.
The school comprises three departments— literary, musical and
mechanical — all in operation at the same time, with a schedule of
hours and exercises so arranged as to accommodate the several
pupils.

LITSBARY.
Our aim in this department is to give our pupils a good, solids
English education.
The studies pursued during the last two years have been : Braille
Erinting; reading; spelling and writing; etymology, with Greek and
atin roots; grammar; physical and descriptive geography; physi-
ology ; natural and intellectual philosophy ; history, both ancient and
moaem, and rhetoric.
In the evening, an hour is spent reading from standard authors
and the various magazines and periodicals of the day.
The exercises on Saturday are varied from the regular programme :
From 8 to 9 o'clock a. m. — reading of reports of attendance ; also, of
scholarship, as determined from the daily recitations, and general re-
marks upon the work of the week. From 9 to 10 — ^Elocutionary exer-
cises, recitations, declamations and composition. At the close of these
exercises, the scnool is divided in two classes, and from thirty to forty
minutes spent in calisthenics and light gymnastics.
MUSICAL.
This department receives here, as in all similar institutions, a large
share of attention.
This is not because the loss of sight specially fits one to become a
musician, but the study and practice of this delightful art is specially
adapted to the blind. All can, and do, derive much pleasure from it,
while a fair proportion of them become skillful performers and most
excellent teachers.
All of our pupils, except those admitted to the mechanical depart-
ment alone, receive instruction in vocal music.
There are two choirs, one meeting two, and the other, the juve-
nile, five times per week. The number of pupils taking lessons in in-
strumental music is as follows :
Piano 28
Organ : 2
Guitar 5
Flute. 3
Violin . . .' 7
Comet 2
Double Bass 2
Cello 1
«
4»#
[11]
Regular instmction is gWen in musical composition, and a class
has been formed of those who intend making the teaching oi music
their profession, which recives special instruction in written music,
thus fitting them to teach the seeing as correctly and successfully as
Beeing teachers.
MECHAl^ICAL DEPARTMENT.
In many respects this is the most important of the three, for in-
dustry is to the bliud as to the seeing — the basis of success ; and that
student will form more correct habits of application to his lessons who
has been, or is, required to devote a portion of his time to manual
labor. This is especially applicable to our pupils, for blindness gen-
erally predisposes to physical inactivity, and as a consequence the in-
tellect, in many instances, becomes sluggish — hence this department
is a most necessary and valuable adjunct to the literary and musical
departments, and should not be separated from them, as some of the
educators of the blind have advocated.
I would have all the pupils employed for at least one hour per day
in some manual labor ; but, unfortunately, we have not been able to
practice upon this theory, from the very limited space allotted for our
work-rooms.
In the workshops the trades of broom and brush-making and
chair-seating are taught, and as many of the pupils are employed in
these branches as our conveniences will accommodate. A statement
of the work-shop account will be found in the Appendix.
The girls are taught sewing, knitting, crocheUng, beadwork, etc.;
take care of their own rooms, and wash the table dishes of the entire
household.
Though they may not be able to provide wholly for themselves
from the pursuit of any or all of these acquirements, yet a knowledge
of them is far more necessary and will contribute more to their hap-
piness than the ability to solve some intricate problem in Euclid, or
to repeat the paradigms of the French verbs.
Many of the pupils in this Institution are orphans, without home
or friends, and have been placed here by some kind acquaintance or
the proper authorities, in order that they may be educated and fitted
in a great degree to support themselves, as well as made useful and
agreeable members of society.
They have a good home while here, but their stay is limited, as
this is an institution for learning, and not an asylum. And when the
time allotted has expired, they must be discharged, sent out into the
world " with no- where to go," unless it may be that a kind Providence
has put it into the hearts of some benevolent persons to offer a home,
which is seldom the case. This has always been a sad fact, and be-
came more apparent at the close of the session of 1867, when several
of these homeless ones were discharged, having remained the full
time, and the place they occupied being needed lor new pupils. And
. at the commencement of the next session, or the 8th of October, 1867,
the young lady pupils organized tl^emselves into a society called the
'^ Band of Industry," for the purpose of raising means to establish a
home for the indigent blind, so that those without natural homes and
protectors may have a place where they can sustain themselves bv
their own industry, and put to usefulness the knowledge acquired
while here. They have devoted their leisure hours to knitting, cro-
cheting, making tatting, beadwork, etc., etc., and have realized from
[12]
the sale of articles thus manQfactured, and those made for sale daring
work hours, $350. They have also made many articles for use in the
Institution^ sheets, pillow-slips, towels, and various articles of their
own clothing, for which they have received no pay.
It is not expected that the necessary funds can be raised by this
slow process. They have merely set the stone to rolling, hoping that
with the aid of contributions, donations and bequests Irom a liberal
and benevolent people, enough will soon be collected to found the
80-much- needed Industrial Home for the blind.
PRINTING.
We have continued our work in this department, adding to our
collection of books in the Braille type an ^'Abridged Musical Dic-
tionary of Italian, English, French and German words;" a Speller
and Definer, abridged from ^'Town's Speller and Definer for the use
of common schools ;" and a " Selection of Prose and Poetry from the
best English authors." Here our success has not been all that we
would desire, but all that we might reasonably expect, when we con-
sider that our corps of teachers is barely sufficient for the educational
wants oi the pupils, and the making of the text-books can only re-
ceive a secondary attention.
ASSISTANT OFFICERS AND TEACHERS.
Our worthy -and efficient matron, Mrs. J. S. Wilkinson, still re-
mains with us, extending her motherly care and sympathy to all.
With the large increase of pupils, her labors have correspondinglv
increased, and in addition to the supervision of the entire household,
care of the sick, etc., she has been required to give three hours per
day to the instruction of the girls in. the work-room. She should be
relieved of this extra charge. It was supposed that one of the
teachers from the literary department might be assigned to this, but
it is not possible to do so without neglecting that division.
Mr. A. Kichli is foreman in the workshop, exercising the same
saving care as if the shop were his own.
Since my last report several changes have taken place in the
teachers of music and literature. Mr. Delvs K. Haynes resigned in
March, 1867, to accept a position as Principal in a Public School, at a
salary of $1,800 per annum. Mr. H. Morton Meyers a graduate of this
institution has been appointed to fill his place. Mr. Adolphe Wil-
hartitz has been appointed to fill the place formerly occupied by
Mr. H. Eobyn as Professor of Music.
Mrs. Elizabeth Houck a graduate of this institution, and for
several years a most efficient teacher in both literature and music,
resigned at the close of the last session, to accept a position offered
her by the Kansas Institute for the Education of the Blind.
^ Mr. D. S. Wilkinson, also a graduate and a teacher in music,
resigned his position here, and accepted that of Professor of Musio
in the Iowa Institute for the Education of the Blind.
Miss Flavilla A. Emery has been appointed as teacher in litera-
ture, and Mr. H. Schirmacher as instructor on stringed Instruments.
So many changes occurring in so short a time would ordinarily
be detrimental to the succesis of the school — but I am happy to
testify to the faithful manner in which the new appointees have dis-
charged the duties assigned them. To all of them our work was a
[13]
new one at the time of their appoiniment ; but they have aesiduoasly
devoted themselves to their new profession, and tbeir success and
conduct, thus far, merit your fullest confidence.
In a school of this kind, tlie fixed policy should be to select offi-
cers and teachers, with strict reference to their qualifications, and to
make only such changes as are imperatively demanded in the proper
fulfullment of our responsible trust. We should have first class
teachers, equal to the best in our educational establishments for the
seeing.
In order to secure this requisite high order of talent, officers and
teachers must receive such remuneration as will make it an object
fer them to devote themselves to our work as a profession for life.
This fact is recognized in fixing the salaries in all Institutions for deaf
mutes ; but such is not the case in most of the Institutions for the
BUnd.
The general health of the inmates has been good. There have
been several cases of illness — some quite severe; but through the
blessing of God and the skill and care of our attending physician,
none have resulted seriously and the death angel has not visited our
household, for which we have especial reason to be thankful, since
during the past two years the cholera has raged with fearful mortali-
ty around us.
OUK PRESENT CONDITION AND FUTURE PROSPECTS.
My Assistants have co-operated heartily with me in discharging
the responsible trust which you have committed to my supervision.
The pupils have been regular in their attendance, and have main-
tained a commendable standard of discipline, and deportment, and
have shown a marked desire to excel.
Eleven new pupils have been received since opening of the
present session, and nine more have been admitted who have not^ yet
arrived. " What shall we do with them," becomes a question of more
than passing importance — ^for, long ago our present accommodations
were more than crowded, and we have been compelled to do, not as
we should, but as we could.
After a careful consideration of this matter, I would suggest as
the best and wisest course, a disposal of the present buildings and
grounds, which have nearly doubled in value, since they became the
property of the State, and the purchase of a lot upon which to erect
such buildings in style and arrangement^ as experience has shown are
best adapted for the successful prosecution of our especial work.
I would not advocate going out from the city, where we would be
debarred from the privileges we now enjoy of attending church, con-
certs and lectures, and which are so really essential to the education
of the pupils.
But it a suitable lot of several acres could be procured in some
healthy locality, in the suburbs of our fast growing city — and on the
line of some one of the many horse railroads, we should then have
the same city privileges, without the dust, ana noise, in the purer air
of the country.
In behalf of the officers and pupils, I hereby tender our hearty
thanks to the Philarmonic Society for free entree to all their concerts;
to the different Musical Troupes who have accorded us like favors ; to
the Public School Library for complimentary tickets to the course of
Lectures given under its auspices; to the Starkweather and Misses L.
1141
B. Irwin, E. M.Mack, O. H. Post, Florence Foster, E. Freeborn and S.
F. Allen, for readings on Sabbath and other afternoons.
The Missouri jJemocrat and the Missouri Valley Register havB
been kindly furnished ns, for which the proprietors will please accept
our thanks, with the express wish that we may be similarly favored
in the future. And we hope that the proprietors of other publications
within our State will remember us in the same way. Our thanks are
due to the Rev. Mr. Baenger, for a present of a full set, 18 yolumes
of the New Testament and Psalms in German raised letters, printed
at Stuttgart ,Oermany.
We are also under great obligations to the several railroads for
the many favors shown to us in granting free passes to the pupils to
go home, and also to return after vacation.
In conclusion, gentlemen, please accept my thanks for your uni-
form kindness, judicious counsel and earnest co-operation for the
welfare of this institution.
With devout thanks to Almighty God for His continued favor to-
ward us, and profiting from past experience, we go forward hopefully
and prayerfully, to strive by our deeds to accomplish that, which our
hearts so much desire : That we may be eyes to the blind.
Respectfully submitted,
H. RENSSELLAER FOSTER,
Superintendent
St. LouiSi December 8, 1868.

Adult males of any age, if physically capable of learning and
Sursuing a trade, are admitted to the mechanical department, and are
ischarged as soon as they have acquired it
On leaving the shop they are furnished with a machine, press and
other necessary tools.
These they seldom feel able to pay for, and in the above account
I have given credit for them as laoned. We have generally sold our
brooms to blind men unable to follow a trade, they finding ready sale
for them among the citizens.

REI^ORT.
To the General Assembly of the State of Missouri :
The Seventh Biennial Report of the Missouri Asylum for the
Deaf and Dambj, being for the years 1867 i^nd 1868, is herewith re-
spectfully submitted :
BRIBE REVIBW,
In looking back to the 1st of November, 1851, when the institu-
tion was founded, my heart swells with, I trust, a laudable pride.
Then we were in a frame building, illy suited to our purposes —
cramped by the want of means to such an extent that our objects
could not oe carried out without personal sacrifice — ^under the em-
barrassment of be^nning such an enterprize .before public sentiment
had been made fully alive to the dignity and importance of our aims.
Now, we are in large, commodious and handsome buildings, sur-
rounded by grounds, possessing rare natural advantages, with a nistory
of seventeen years of constant progress.
Two hundred and seventy-seven pupils already taught within
our walls, redeemed through this means from a life of ignorance, to
intelligence, virtue and religion. I may well congratulate your body
upon tne history, as well as character and objects of the interests
which I represent. Many of our former pupils are now pursuing use-
ful callings. Some are unusually intelligent, accomplished and re-
fined; numbers of them are members of churches of various denomi-
nations, while others have died in the triumphs of faith, with pleasing
evidences of their acceptance with God.
GENERAL IMPROVEMENT.
The general improvement of our pupils deserves the highest com-
mendation. With a few exceptions, they have been industrious, obe-
dient and orderly, and we are persuaded they will compare favorably
with those of similar institutions in our country. Of course, the pro-
gress made, has been in proportion to their application and mental
endowments. A large mtgority of them have made rapid improve*
ment in the correct use of written language. In some instances, even
very dull pupils have rewarded the patient labors of their teachers to
instruct them, with astonishing and gratifying success.
16]
H£ALTH OF THB FUFILS.
Life is made up of sunshine and shadow, of joy and sorrow. In a
sanitary point of view, during the past two years, we have had much
of sunshine, the general health of the pupils having been remarkably
good; more so than usual with us. Yet we have had some dark brief
shadows which have greatly afSicted us and left us sad.
During the present session, though the number of pupils is larger
than ever before, we have reason to be thankful for unusual health,
there being scarcely any ailment whatever among the pupils.
But, while we feel grateful to a kind Providence for the pleasant
f periods of uninterrupted health, which we have enjoyed during the
ast two years, and would prefer to dwell upon them, we feel it but
our duty, especially to those personally interested, to give a brief
summary of those afflictive periods, which we have also suffered.
On the 14th of June, 1867, Martha F. Lucas died, in the eighteenth
year of her age, of whooping-cough, which prevailed among the
pupils as an epiaemic. She had been under instruction two vears,
and was making good progress in her studies. She was loved \yy all
who knew her, and trusted alone in Him who is the resurrection and
the life.
On the 7th of October, of the same year, William W. Young, of
Monroe county, died of epidemic dysentery. For some months pre-
vious to his last sickness he had been deeply concerned in reference
to his future happiness. He was amiable, studious, and we trust, a
sincere Christian.
Six days after, John L. Payne died of the same disease, in the
fourteenth year of his age. ' His connection with the institution, was
too short, for him to acquire any clear or definite ideas of the great
future.
Ellen F. Bailey died February 17, 1S68, of typhoid pneumonia,
after a tuition of only five months. She could therefore have no clear
views of God or of a future state.
George T. Estes died July 8, 1868, of congestive chills, at the age
of nineteen years. This youth was gifted with more than ordinary
powers of mind, and though he had been under instruction only five
months, was able, through the significant language of signs, to assure
us of his unwavering trust in Christ as his all-sufficient Saviour.
Were it compatible with the limits of this report, we could relate
many pleasing reminiscen*ces of those departed ones. While we weep
over their early graves, we are cheered with the hope that they are
now far removed Irom the sorrows of earth to an innerit&nce among
the redeemed in heaven. Except during the prevalence of epidemics,
we have been comparatively exempt from severe sickness. In all
cases of indisposition, requiring medical treatment, a skillful and ex-
perienced physician is prompt m attendance.
THE CAUSES OF DEAFNESS.
The causes of deafness have been profoundly discussed by several
able writers, and are a constant topic of inquiry to friends of deaf
mutes. But this is no longer, at least in many respects, a matter of
mere hypothesis or curious speculation. Conclusions have been
reached, which should be known and studied by all, as matters of
momentous practical importance. When it is substantiated, as it has
been, that the unequal ages of parents— the ill-health or feebleness of
one or both of them — the ill-health of the mother during gestation
■
— the imagination of the mother before the birth of the child — the
intermarriage of blood relations — the occupation and mode of living
of the parents— direct hereditary descent—and the tendency of cer-
tain diseases^ such as scarlatina^ measles, scrofula, and pneumonia —
-when, I say, it is well known that these are productive of this great
calamity to man, is there not a potent, practical utility to all, in such
information ?
But more, it is also known that certain features of physical
geography tend powerfully to the production of deafness. In some
countries, in proportion to the population, there are more deaf mutes
than in others^ and in some localities of the same country there are
far more than m others. In Germany, for example, there are not as
many as in France ; and in France there are some provinces which
produce one deaf mute to 700 individuals, while in others there is
one to 2,000, ^'according to the situation of the province to the
south or north of the empire, in a mountainous or flat country, in
healthv or unhealthy places, in manufacturing or agricultural dis-
tricts. It is a well ascertained fact that, in proportion to the popu*
lation, in the beautiful plains ^hich occupy the centre of France,
there are onl^ one-half the number of deaf and dumb that are
to be found m the ^^ irregular table land, which border on the
frontiers,, north, south, and east^ and in tne uncultivated moors
on the west" There is, no doubt m my own mind, that these purely
climatic and geo^aphical causes have a large share in the production
of this sad affliction of humanity. The ^^ social causes at work, pro-
ducing both congenital and acquired deafness," are also potent and
numerous as before stated. Having, in a former report, presented this
subject more at lar^e, we now dismiss its further consideration, with
the earnest expression of the hope, that the researches and observa-
tions of men of benevolence and science, may rapidly tend to miti-
fate or lessen the prevalence of deafness. The facts introduced un-
er the head of the causes of deafness, have, in a former report been
given at length, and references made to the sources of information.
THE CURK OF DEAFNESS.
To the often and anxiously asked question, can deafness be
cured? I can only answer, as I have done in former reports in the
negative. After an intercourse of more than forty years with the
deaf and dumb, and having made the amelioration of their condition
the study and aim of much of my life, I am still unshaken in the con-
viction that congenital deafness cannot he oured^ and that those who
make pretences of that sort are quacks and imposters that deserve
the reprobation of mankind.
ARTICULATION.
In Oermany. the instructors of the deaf and dumb have chiefly
confined themselves to the method of articulation, or developing the
latent power of vocal utterance in the possession of the deaf mute.
While the French system, or the method of teaching by signs, is still
and always will be, the main instrument of imparting instruction to
the deaf and dumb, public opinion at present, demands that the Ger-
man system should have a fair practical test. Some mutes, that is
those who could once hear and speak and who still retain some idea of
spoken language, may in many instances be thus benefited ; but of
[81
the congenitally deaf very few can be taught by that method to any
useful extent. The following resolutions which were adopted at the
Conference of the Principals of the American Institutions for the
Deaf and Dumb, held in the City of Washington, in May, 1868, are
expressive of the views of those best competent to judge upon so dif-
ficult and vexed a question:
Reaolved^ That m the opinion of this Conference, it is the duty of all
institutions for the education of the deaf and dumb, to provide ade-
quate means for imparting instruction in articulation in lip reading,
to such of their pupils as may be able to engage with profit in exer-
cises of this nature.
ffesolved^ That while in our judgment, it is desirable to give some
mutes and semi-deaf children every facility for retaining and im-
proving any power of articulate speech which they may possess, it is
not profitable, except in promising cases, discovered after lair experi-
ment to teach congenital mutes articulation.
Resolvedy That to attain success in this department of instruction,
an added force of instructors will be necessary, and this Conference
hereby recommends to Boards of Directors of institutions for, the
deaf and dumb in this country, that speedy measures be taken to pro-
vide the funds needed for the prosecution of this work.
Resolved^ That the American system of deaf mute education as
practised in the institutions of this country for the last fifty years,
commends itself by the best of all tests, that of prolonged, careful,
and successful experiment, as, in a pre-eminent degree, adapted to
relieve the peculiar misfortune of deaf mutes as a class, and restore
them to the blessings of society.
The two methods — the French and German — ^have each undoubted
merits and while we thus cheerfully concede the value of oral lan-
guage as a means for the intellectual improvement of some of those
deprived of the sense of hearing, it must ever be true, as before inti-
mated, that sign language is the basis of this improvement. Oral
language is, and must be of secondary importance. Believing a com-
bination of the two methods will be progress in the right direction
and promotive of the greatest good to the greatest number of those
whose improvement we seek, I would recommend that the Missouri
Institution should have afibrded it, the means of emploving a teacher
capable of imparting instruction by means of articulation and the
labial alphabet ^ Prove all things : hold fast that which is good."
INDIGENT FUND.
Of the beneficent results accomplished by the indigent fund,
the facts in my possession would enable me to sav much that is highly
interesting, and that would demonstrate the wisdom of this provision.
During the first years of the existence of the institution, the
traveling expenses and clothing of manv indigent pupils were paid
chiefly by one person. It is easy to see how, great a tax upon indi-
vidual benevolence this proved. When it is stated, that many of
these children are without parents, homes, or friends, — ^that the natu-
ral guardians of others are in utterly indigent cirpumstances, — ^that
the utmost others can do is to clothe their children, in part, it will be
seen at once, that often times the alternative is presented between a
future of ignorance and perhaps degradation, or personal generosity.
In connection with this, we are in danger of overlooking the fact,
that a very large number of i>eople, even in our own age and country,
[9]
haye no just conception of the unspeakable advantageg of education.
Only a few weeks since, I met a yonn^ girl, for a short time under my
care, who told me her father retained her at home because he was un-
willing to pay the necessary expenses of her tuition, and that now her
lot was to cook and wash for the family for life. Wnen we remember
the length of time even a moderate English education of children
of ordinarily good natural advantages requires, it may astonish
some to know that the father ot a deaf mute once asked me, whether
his daughter could not learn enough in a year to stop school !
These facts speak for themselres^ and render further appeal un**
necessary. Provision must be conHnued both for the indigent, and
also a reasonable discretion should be left to the Oommissioners with
reference to those who have parents that are unwilling, from the want
of an intelligent perception of the blessings of an education, to incur
the cost of board and tuition.
It may be well, in this connection, to state that in all the institu-
tions of the west, so far as I know, for example, Indiana, Iowa, Illi-
nois, Ohio and Kentucky, the doors are thrown wide open, free of
chare:e, to all who desire the advantages of education. If the deaf
and. Qumb are ever to be generally educated, this is the only way in
which it can be accomplished.
BXJILDIKOS.
The buildings and grounds are in a good condition, but the in-
crease in the number of pupils, necessitates our having more ample
accommodations. It is m; firm conviction, that if we had the facili-
ties requisite in our hands^ double the present number of deaf child-
ren would, with little effort, soon be enjoying the benefits of this
noble charity.
Chapel. The chapel we now have is entirely too small. We neel3
a building capable of seating at least six hundred people. The pre-
sent chapel is scarcely one-third this size. On all public occasions '
examinations especially, we have not sufficient space to accommodate
the spectators that assemble. The room at present in use for this ob-
ject, is also required for a school room, and beside is much needed as
a study room for the female pupils.
School rooms, — Every class should have a separate room in order
that the teacher mav have full opportunity to do justice to his work.
At present three to four classes are in a single apartment. We should
have four or five more.
Apparatus, — A valuable auxiliary in the instruction of the deaf
and dumb is the philosophical apparatus, which has now been in our
possession for a number of years, but this needs repairs, and also an
addit:on of several useful instruments.
library. — ^The $500 which were appropriated to the library of the
institution nave been judiciously expended, and it would be a grea(;
advantage if $500 or $1,000 could now be expended in increasing the
reading material, within the reach of our teachers and pupils.
Shops. — ^The building to be devoted to the instruction of the male
pupils m the various mechanical trades, is under cover, but nothing
further has been done, for want of funds, towards carrying out their
design.
Oas. — ^We would call attention to the danger incurred in the use
of kerosene oil in lighting the building. The safety,both of the pu*
pils and of the house, is thus constantly emperiled. We most urgent-
[10 1
ly call the attention of your body to the importance of lighting the
institution with gas, and recommend that steps should be taken at an
early date to make this improvement
Painting. — Most of the building needs repainting, not only for
the pleasantness of the appearance, bat for its protection against the
wastes of time.
BUih rooms. — We have no bath rooms, either in those parts of the
building occupied by the male or female pupils. It would be highly
conducive, both to the health and comfort of all, to have appliances
of this sort, and we have long felt their need.
TEACHERS.
The present law authorizes the employment of only five teachers,
but these are not enough for the number of classes to be taught
There should be at least six, apart from the Superintendent, whose
duties have, by the growth of the institution, become so burdensome
as to necessitate his relief from much of ttie labors of the school
room. The law should also be so amended as to empower the Board
of Commissioners to employ additional teachers, as they may from
time to time be needed.
FEEBLE-MINDED CHILDKEN.
The duties of my office have led me to many parts of our State,
and from this opportunity of personal observation, I am convinced
that there are in our midst a large number of weak-minded or imbe-
cile children. I caunot give exact numbers, but I think there are not
less than 700 or 800.
Although these cannot possibly receive more than a very limited
education, yet some of them may be improved to an astonishing de-
gree. Most of them can, at least, be taught to work and so improve
in their habits and manners, a? to make them useful to society instead
of being a burden to themselves, to their families, and often even an
annoyance to the community.
In many of the States, institutions have been founded for this
class, and in Missouri one is much needed. From one hundred to one
hundred and fiftv of these truly unfortunate ones actually suflFer for
the want of such a place of refuge, and I most earnestly commend
this subject to your wise legislation.
OONCLOSION.
In closing this reportj I should do violence to my own feelings, did
I not express mj appreciation of the faithful manner in which the
Board of Commissioners have discharged their duties, and of their
uniform kindness to me personally.
Not least, among the evidences of the success and prosperity of
the institution, I deem the character and qualifications of our teachers,
and the pleasant and friendly personal relations which exist among
them.
With expressions of gratitude lor His favor upon us in the past,
to the kind Father of us all, and with cheerful acknowledgment of
the interest your honorable body has hitherto manifested in the suc-
cess and usefulness of this institution, and urging your earnest atten-
tion to his report, I submit the same.
Most respectfully,
W. D. KERK, Superintende7it.

TERMS OF 'ADMISSIOISr.
All applicants must be seven years of age, and nnder thirty.
Pupils who are not beneficiaries of the State will be charged on«
hundred and fifty dollars per annum, for board and tuition, wnich, in
all cases, must be paid as follows : One-half upon entering the insti-
tution, and the remainder on the first day of February succeeding.
Pupils who are beneficiaries of the l^tate must bring a certificate
from the county court of their respective counties, the lorm of which
18 appended to this report.
Each pupil must be furnished with comfortable clothing for one
year, each article marked distinctly with the owner's name. A good
trunk must also be lurnished.
Parents must furnish money to procure books, stationery and
postage stamps for their children, and, in all cases, their traveling ex-
penses must be paid to and from the institution.
The Superintendent will not be responsible for any moneys sent
to the children^ but will take charge of all moneys sent to his care,
and dispose of it as parents may direct. Except for good and sufS-
cient reasons no pupil will be permitted to leave the institution until
the close of the session.
No idiotic deaf mute will be received in the institution. None
need apply.
The Superintendent will not be responsible for any trunks, bag-
gage or clothing left at the institution for a longer period than six
months.
When it is established that a pupil is in indigent circumstances,
and the parents unable to furnish necessary clothing, etc., it will be
supplied by the Board of Commissioners.
All pupils, both male and female, will be expected to perform
such duties as may be required by the Superintendent and matron;
and male pupils to learn some branch of mechanical arts, when such
is providea ; reference being had to the wishes of their friends.
All letters of inquiry should be addressed to W. D. Kerr, Super-
intendent of the Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb, at Fulton, Missouri.
The opening of the sessionis the most suitable time for admitting
pupils, and it is particularly desired that parents have their children
ready in time, although none will be rejected at any period of the
session.
The annual session begins on the third Tuesday in September,
and closes the second Thursday in July,
Written answers to the following questions should be sent with
each pupil to the asylum, unless accompanied by some one who can
l^urnisk the desired information, to wit :
What is the name of the person ? If a middle name, state it
What is the name of parents (father and mother), or in case both
are dead, the name and po^office address of the guardian or nearest
friend ?
When and where born ? Give year, month and day.
Was he or she bom deaf?
Has he or she any relations deaf and dumb ?
Were his or her parents related before marriage t e. g., were they
eousins t
A t what age was hearing lost f

[l. s.] a true copy from the record.
Attest : , Clerk.
Gentlemen : My remarks in reference to the sanitary condition of
the asylum during the last two years will be brief.
I am happy to say that^ in general, the pupils have enjoyed
remarkable ^ood health. I think there has been less of casual, ordi-
nary complaint, than I ever knew among them, and less of obstinate
chronic disease ; still, we have had times of severe sickness, and some
deaths.
Daring the year 1867 we had two epidemic visitations of consid-
erable severity, leaving some unpleasant results. The first of these
was whooping cough, m the early part of the summer ; it passed
through the whole institution, selecting many victims, all of whom,
however, made a safe recovery, except one, who, at the close of a se-
vere ordeal of the cough, was attacked with pneumonia, which proved
fatal, more from the previous exhaustion of the whooping cough than
from the severity of the pneumonia attack.
Our second epidemic visitation was in October, from dysentery
or flux. We had many cases, some of them quite severe — two died.
One of them was a delicate boy, whose physical constitution was
scarcely sufficient for the confinement of the school room. During
^he previous year, the Superintendent and myself had more than onca
discussed the propriety of his remaining in the institution ; but in
view of the great necessity to him of the advantages of education, he
was allowed to continue. The other had passed through his attack to
a state of convalescence, and gave promise of a speedy recovery,
when he suddenly became very ill, and soon died, leaving us at a loss
(even with the addition of able counsel) to account for the sudden
change, as there was no re-appearance of the previous disease.
In the early jiart of the year 1868, we had quite an epidemic, or
rather endemic, of catarrhal fever. We had a great many cases of it,
rendering the patients very sick for a few days, after which they
speedily recovered, except one, which resulted in typhoid pneumonia,
with indications of great prostration from the commencement of the
attack. During the remainder of the year the health of the pupils
wan unusually goo^L although in July one of the bovs was attacked
with a congestive chill, from which we were unable to rally him.
There was no premonition of this, save a slight chill, and a brief fever
[16]
on the previous day, giving no indication of anything more than a
light intermittent, to prevent the return of which he was taking the
usual remedies at the time of the congestive attack.
During the present season, although the number of puirils is
^eater than ever before, their health is remarkablv good indeed.
Thev are cheerful and happy, well cared for physically, morally and
intellectually, and seem to be making fine progress in tlie acquisition
of knowledge, by means of the inimitable sign-language.
Respectfully, E. T. SCOTT, '
Physiciaju
oommission:er8' heport.
The Board of Commissioners of the Missouri Institution for the
education of the Deaf and Dumb, beg leave to present to the General
Assembly of the State the following, as their seventh biennial report:
Referring withj)leasure to the comprehensive report of the Super-
intendent, herewith presented, in whicn much will be found to inter-
est those whose sympathies have been awakened in behalf of the un-
fortunate child of silence ; and also 3n intelligent account of the
internal workings of the institution during the two years past, since
the date of our last repoit to the Assembly of 1S66, it ohly remains
for the Board of Commissioners to report its financial condition, its
wants and future prospects.
FINANOES.
Whilst the Commissioners have often been cramped in their ef-
forts to afford necessary facilities for educating the deaf mute, and
have not been able to supply many of the modern improvements, to
say nothing of desks and slates, on account of the limited means at
their disposal, it has been our aim to supply every comfort and facility
within our power, carefully guarding against involving the institution
in liabilities, to be hereafter provided for.
The accounts for ^^ incidental expenses," under which head every
article of supply (except for the table, and clothing for indigent
mutes), are enumerated, including all repairs, improvements, fuel,
furniture, bedding, etc., have been kept distinct from all others ; a^
also the accounts ag^ainst the ^ indigent fund " and ^^ workshop fund."
The condition of each fund, as well as a detailed statement of the ex-
penditures on each account, will be found in the treasurer's report
appended to this communication, a summary of which, embracing two
years from the date of our last report, is as follows :

Payments made from the above balances on the Ist ot January
entirely exhausted^ the incidental fund, and left only a small amount
in the bands of the Treasurer due to the fund for clothing indigent
mutes.
From the above, it must occur to every intelligent legislator, that
those who have charge oi an establishment of this kind, devoted to the
protection and elevation of those whose silent eloquence so strongly
appeal to their liberality and benevolence, most naturally feel great
solicitude ; when it is remembered that in a case of sudden emergencv,
they would at the end of each recurring year, be without means to
make provision for those who are so illy prepared to provide for them-
selves.
This being the practical result, after two years of the most economic
cal management, we are prepared to speak advisedly when we state
that the sum of five thousand dollars is insufficient for the annual sup-
port of the institution, even with its present capacitor, and we there-
fore strongly urge the annual appropriation for incidental expenses
be increased to
[18]
TEN THOUSAKD D0LLAK8.
This sum will not be more than adequate to meet imperative
wants/ and it will not be considered a large appropriation, when it is
remembered, that out of this amount all expenditures, except for the
table, for a family numbering largely over one hundred, must be sup-
plied, including improvements, repairs, and the keeping of the grounds
and buildings ; and with the ratio of increase experienced during the
past four years, the number of pupils may be safely estimated at 200,
besides employees, before the close of four years to come.
THB DEAF AND DUMB— WHAT OTHER STATES ARE DOING.
Nearly every State in the Union has made liberal provision for
the education of this unfortunate class of persons. In some of the
older States, through th^ munificence of inaividuals, together with
the liberality of their legislatures, institutions have been reared in
their behalf unsurpassed by any of our colleges for hearing persons,
and supplied with teachers and apparatus for giving the aeaf mute,
not only a liberal, but a scientific education. This expenditure is not
an experiment — but the fruits of fifty years experience in America —
demonstrating the fact, that the highest state of mental and moral
culture may be attained. The educated mute has gone out from these
institutions, not only learned in the arts and sciences, but in trades
and mechanism ; so well prepared are they to battle with the storms
of life, that in the possession of these attainments, they forget in some
measure that God in his providence has deprived them oi the sweet
sounds of mu>ic, and the tender voice of a mother's- love.
When such results may be accomplished through the beautiful
art of sign-language, can any philanthropist withhold the means
necessary to its attainment, or regard the cause of deaf mute instruc-
tion with indifference.
The State of Ohio has recently torn down her old buildings, and
erected others in their stead, at a cost of $625,000. Iowa has expend-
ed for her 200 deaf mutes $300,000. Illinois a much larger sum, and
the bill reported and now before the legislature appropriates $100,000
for additional buildings alone, due $75,000 for the support of the in-
stitution for 1869 and 1870. Indiana having already accommodations
for over 200 pupils, will ask this winter for additional improvements,
to cost some $75,000. And this amount will be in addition to an es-
tablishment already fitted up with gas, steam, workshops, and a good
supply of modern improvements for the instruction of her mutes.
What shall we say for proud Missouri, the pride of her people,
and the gem of the constellations; her, whose fair fields and endless
resources invite the emigrant from every land to come and till her
soil, and exhume her minerals ? What has she done for the five hun-
dred mutes within her territory ? We answer, that her generous and
noble people, through their representatives in General Assembly,
have met every call up to the present, that has been made upon them.
Her buildings, though erected at a cost of less than fifty thousand dol-
lars, have served their purpose. A number of mutes who have been
educated here are now useful citizens in the communities in which
they reside, earning a competent support for themselves, and in some
cases, families. Although not supplied with many appliances neces-
sary for instruction and comfort, they have proved a blessing to many
families whose children have been led within these walls ft'om '^Na-
[19]
tare's darkness to Nature's God" — but now their full capacity has
been reached, and the poor child who may hereafter seek admission,
must either be crowded into dormitories already full, or remain in
darkness and ignorance.
With one hundred pupils in daily attendance, there are still 2n0
mutes in our State, as justly entitled to'the benefits of this charity as
those now enjoying it Without presumption, the Board of Commis-
sioners ask of the Legislature, now assembled, the means to erect
ADDITIONAL BUILDINGS,
in order that the demands hereafter made upon us, by the mutes of
our State, may be met without detriment to those already in attend-
ance. The plan of the present building is, fortunately, such as to admit
of enlargement without alteration, except to tear away a building
which is utterly insuflBcient, and unfitted for the purposes for which
it was erected. It is now occupied on the first floor for culinary and
laundry purposes, but the rooms are by far too small for the demands
of the institution — besides the heat in summer, and fumes from the
kitchen, we have found it exceedingly unpleasant in the hospitals for
the sick, situated in the rooms above. These important rooms cannot
be ventilated, and the physician of the institution, strongly recom-
mends their removal, which would have been done, but for the want
of rooms to locate the hospitals elsewhere.
Plans with specifications and estimates for an additional building,
in which tiie basement will be used for cook-room, bakery, laundry,
store-rooms, etc.; the second and third stories for dining-room, hospi-
tals, and dormitories, will be found in the hands of the Committee on
Deaf and Dumb Asylum^ to which we invite the intention of all who
will interest themselves m this behalf, and also plans for a
A CHAPEL.
This much needed building, we propose to erect on the east side
of the asylum, two stories high, and sufficient in dimensions to furn-
ish additional school-rooms of which we are now deficient, and also a
chapel large enough tor daily services, and to accommodate visitors
on public occasions ; if the Legislature should favor these improve-
ments, another important and much needed purpose will be accom-
plished, in supplying a room the want of which has been greatly felt,
and has retarded, to some extent, a branch of instruction, which will
commend itself to every thinking mind.
A OIBLS' WORE-ROOM.
The present dining-room is admirabljr suited to this purpose, and
also for an evening study-room. The institution has never been abl#
to do, all that might be done, in the wajr of training the female pupil
in the practice of those duties, which will be of practical utility after
they have left the school^ simply for the want of a suitable room.
To educate the mute, male or female, and send them away un-
prepared to be useful to themselves or others, will be to a great ex-
tent to defeat the aim of their friends, and the claims of humanity.
Heretofore nearly all the clothing for the boys has been either bought
ready-made, or by hired labor. With a suitable room for the purpose,
the female pupils may soon be taught to do nearly all the sewing, not
[20]
only for themselves, but also for the boys ; preparinjic &11 for usefiil-
ness, and some, perhaps with the means to gain a support after they
shall have received an education. The absolute necessity for addi-
tional buildings is earnestlv urged for the consideration of your hon-
orable body, and especially before your Oommittee on Asylums,
whose attention we hope to direct in person to the wants of this insti-
tution at some suitable time during the session.
WORKSHOPS FOR BOYS.
By act, approved February 19, 1866, the sum of $3,000 was appro-
priated by the Legislature for the erection of workshops for boys.
This sum has been expended, and an excellent building 24 k 60, two
stories hish, has been inclosed, which consumed the amount appro-
priated. To finish this building and supply it with suitable materials
and tools to commence this important branch of instruction, will
require an additional appropriation of five -thousand dollars.
The experience of institutions who have successfully prosecuted
this branch of education, will guide the Commissioners in selecting
such trades as have been founa to be the best adapted to the tastes
and capacity of the Deaf and Dumb. Shoemaking and cabinet-making
have been adopted by most of the institutions of the kind in this coun-
try, and it is believed that after the workshops have been fairly gotten
into opferation, they can be made self-supporting, except for the wages
of a foreman for each department. The importance of immediately
organizing this department, we cannot too strongly urge.
Most of the boys under instruction will necessarily be thrown in
after lite upon their own resources for support, and we regard their
instruction in the practical knowledge of some trade, as an essential
part of their education.
HBATINa BY STEAM.
To heat an establishment of this kind by stoves, is at once expen-
sive and dangerous. A uniform heat througb6ut the dormitories at
night would save, in the purchase of bed clothing, alone, when the
number of pupils shall reach one hundred and fifty, irom three to five
hundred dollars per annum, which, added to (he cost of stoves, would,
in ten years, more than supply the institution with heat by steam.
Upon the score of economy, alone, this improvement should be made;
and yet another and perhaps more important argument is found in
the fact that where so manv children are congregated, it is almost
impossible to keep bed clothing on them at night, and it requires the
most careful watching to prevent suffering in very cold weather, re-
sulting as exposures always do, in sickness and disease.
OF LIGHTS.
When we say that from thirty to -fifty coal oil lamps are nightly
used in this institution, subject at any time to be broken and ignited
by careless handling, resulting, probably, in the serious loss of both
life and propertv, we have used all the arguments demanded by the
thoughtful and humane, in favor of providing this building at an early
day with gas. The frequent disasters occasioned by explosions from
coal oil, fills us with alarm upon this subject, and we trust that it may
not require any persuasion on our part, to induce the adoption of a
seder mode of lighting the buildings.
[21]
The Asylum for the Insane, located at this place, ihas recently
been fitted up with gas at a cost of less than $3,000, which gives satis-
faction. It is estimated that this Institution can be lighted for two
thousand dollars, and we would regard this sum as most wisely ap-
propriated for that purpose.
CHANGE OF 8TATUTE.
By reference to the report of the Superintendent, it will be seen
that he deems the appointment of an additional instructor for the
purpose of teaching Articulation, as essential to the advancement of
a number of children under his charge. The present law, as to officers
and teachers, is a copy of the original enactments, passed when the
institution was first founded, and when five teachers were entirely
sufficient for the duties before them. With more puj^ils in attendance
than ever before, and the advancement of the age m the science of
deaf mute instruction, the necessity for an instructor in Articulation
has arisen^ and as the number of pupils continue to increase, which
will certainly occur if additional buildings are provided, additional
assistance will be required in the faculty. No matter how great the
demand may be for additional teachers, they cannot be supplied un-
der the present law, as it restricts the board to the employment of
five — without the change suggested. We respectfully ask that the
views of the Superintendent upon this subject be met, and that the
law be changed to read as follows: "The Board of Commissioners
may increase the number of teachers as circumstances may require,
ana that master workmen may be appomted for each trade taught in
the mechanical department, who shall draw their salaries as other
officers of the institution."
OF OFFICERS.
The Board of Commissioners are happy to state that the most
fileasant relations have existed between them and the officers of the
nstitution. Since the date of our last report Miss Lydia A. Kenne-
dy, from the National College at Washington City, has been added to
the corps of teachers, and* we take pleasure in recognizing commend-
able zeal and success in the discharge of her duties.
. The want of an additional hearing teacher, qualified to take
charge of the more advanced classes, and relieve the Superintendent
of some of the arduous duties of his office, has been greatly felt for
some time past, and we are happy to announce that the services of
W. 8. Marshall, A. M., who has long been connected with the Indiana
institution, has been obtained to fill this important position. This
gentleman will enter upon the discharge of his duties in a short time,
and it is hoped that his labors among us as Vice Superintendent may
result in great good to all who come under his influence and control.
We are pleased to state, in this connection, that the efficient services
of Professors Kavenaugh and Gilkey have been retained, as also of
Mrs. Dollie Kerr, a hearing teacher, who has been connected with the
Institution for two years past, and who gives great promise of useful
ness in her profession.
With the corps of teachers now employed under the able control
of the Superintendent, we anticipate a future of success to this insti-
tution unsurpassed by any of a similar kind in our country, and with
liberal legislation may be made to advance in usefulness commensur-
[32]
\i tbe rapid advancea of the great and growing State in whicli
:ated.
\ congratulate ourselves, as well as the parents and friends of
ortunate mute, that Frof. W. D. Kerr has been induced to give
irpose to discontinue his labors in this Institution. We should
igarded his resignation at this time as a great calamity. His
perience, zeal and success as an instructor of deaf mutes, to-
with those high qualifications so happilj' blended in his char-
ir training the young mind in morality, txuth and religion, enii-
fits him for the responsible position he has so long and so ablj
He has been re-elected as Superintendent for ten years, a;
: excellent lady as Matron. It would be the wish of all who
liem,that as the founders of the Institution, they may long live
the results ot their labors ; and when increasing years shall
asted the sands of life, may they, at a green old age, within
rails, lay off the harness, and peacefully enter that asylum,
.he deaf hear the music of angels, and the dumb unite in sing-
ises unto God.
C0NCLC810M.
conclusion, permit us to say, that in asking appropriations for
af and Dumb Asylum in former reports, we have only sought
t immediate wants.
continue this policy, in view of the rapidly increasing popula-
our great State, and consequent increase in the outuber of
'bo may claim the benefits of this noble charity, would at once
Tary to the intelligence and liberality of your honorable body
manifest an indillerence, if not ignorance, on our part, as to
2:iiitude of the interests committed to our charge. The poor
e always with us, the unfortunate and distressed, these all
ur commiseration and relief; and yet among all the children
)w there are none from whom Charity receives so rich a re-
1 that interesting class in whose behalf Nve now address you.
:he minds of any are impressed with the opinion that there are
' deaf and dumb to be provided for, and are indulging in apa-
)n this subject, simply because your attention has not been
,0 the subject, we refer you to the fact that at the dat9 of our
18U6 there were over 500 in the State, and the number has sines
I creased.
V York had, in 1868, four hundred and fifty children in her
; Indiana has over two hundred in hers; Illinois two hundred
7 ; Ohio has near three hundred, and Iowa has recently made
an for accommodating two hundred pupils. Shall we tail
these, our neighboring States, in providing for our charitable
ions f Had itnot been for the misfortunes incident to the late
. in our State, closing the doors of this Institution, demand
lecessarily have been made, ere this, for increased facilities for
ruction of our deaf and dumb.
th the esception of S'},000 alluded to in this report for building
ops, no appropriations have been made for building purposes
benefit of this Institution since 1855.
vingthuB imperfectly set forth our own convictions as to the
tf this Institution, matured after its management for a number
s past, you are prepared for the statement that during the ses-
ills will be presented for your consideration appropriating
for consummating the purposes herein enumerated.
[23]
With feelings of assurance that this subject will commend itself
to your wisest counsels, and that no contracted view of its import-
ance will cause you to withhold your munificence from a cause which
appeals to your synapathy and the highest interests of your enlight-
ened constituency, we most respectfully commit to your hands its
destiny. Believing that ample appropriations to this Institution, at
this time, will yield to the State and to society a most direct and pal-
pable return, m the accession of useful citizens from the children of
silence, who, without your aidj may never learn their duty to " them-
s<elves, their neighbor and their God," we confidently anticipate your
liberality in their behalf.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF MANAGERS.
To the Oenenal Assembly of Missouri :
Gentlemen: — Conformable to the requirement of the^Slatutes-of*
the State, the undersigned, Managers of the Missouri State Lunatic
Asylum, respectfully submit their eighth biennial report.
We are pleased to be able to state that the Instiitution is now fill-
ing its full measure of usefulness to the unfortonaie beings who re-
quire its benefits.
The resident officers of the Institution are* efficient and compe-
tent, and actuated by those humane and philanthropic impulses so*
essential to the well-being of so noble a charity.
Harmony prevails throughout the entire establishment, and %sif
dences of public confidence have been received from all parts of the*
State.
Its inmates now number three hundred and sixty-nine, being:
nineteen more patients than the actual capacity of the building, and
an increase of one hundred and fbur more patients than at the time
of the last report
We are looking anxiousljr forward to the time when the St. Louia.
patients, one hundred and thirty-five in number, shall be removed to*
the new asylum now preparing for their reception, so that the door»
of the asylum, now closed to patients, may be agaiu thrown open to
them.
The report of the Treasurer,. lowing the condition of the finances^
is herewith submitted.
Especial attention is called, to the accompanying report of the*
Superintendent and Physician^
The recommendations therein contained, meet with our approval^
and it is hoped that they may be deemed worthy of consideration
and action during the present session.
Respecting the progress of improvements, made in compliance-
with the act which passed your honorable body at the last session,,
appropriating the sum of twenty thousand dollars for the purpose, we^
have to report as follows:
The old sewer has been, replaced, wherever found defective, with
Alton stoneware. Work upon its extension will be resumed in the-
spring. All the materials for the purpose are on the ground.
Work on the new reservoir has been discontinued, in consequence*
of unfavorable weather. About six weeks or two months' labor are
requisite to complete it. It will hold, when finished, at least one-
million gallons of water — sufficient to supply all our wants.
The materials for lighting the building with i^as are nearly all.
upon the grounds, and are beinff rapidly put up. We expect to light-
the house with gas by the middle of February.
The repairs and painting contemplated in the bill are abont com'
pleted, and the piano and melodeon have been purchased.
Materials for the ten pin alley are on the ground, so that it can be
constructed early in the spring.
All work has been done oy day labor, under the supervision of
the Superintendent and Managers.
We have purchased, from the Missouri Gas Works Building Com-
pany, the patent gas apparatus of Archer, Pancoast & Co., for making
^as from gasoline, parafine oil and other fatty substances. The cost
of the works at St. Louis is $1,013 91, to be paid for when in working
order and found to ^ive satisfaction.
The work is being done by one hand, aided by our engineer and
regular employees.
These works are no experiment, being now in successful operation
at the Laclede Hotel and county jail, St. Louis, and at Long BrancL

Accurate estimates cannot now be made of the cost of the re-
spective improvementa now in process, but, when completed, it is
probable that all the objects contemplated in the bill making the
appropriation, will be accomplished out of the amount provided.

To the Honor dhle^ the Boaa d of Manag.er^ of the Mieeouri State Lu*
natio Asylum :
Gentlemen: — With the return of annother biennial epoch in the
history of this institution, comes the duty of drafting our report.
A retrospective glance at the history of the Asylum for the past
two years affords us abundant cause for devout thankfulness to Al-
mighty God, for the full measure of prosperity He has vouchsafed
unto us. He has averted from our household the '^ pestilence that
walketh in darkness, and the destruction that wasteth at noonday."—
No unusual occurrences have complicated our labors, or aggravated
our mortality. The general health of our patients has never been
better. For the past two years, our death rate, notwithstanding the
unprecedently crowded condition of the hospital, has been less, and
our proportion of recoveries greater, than for any similar period since
the re-opening of the institution, in 1863.
The actual and proportionate number of patients discharged im-
proved, for this period, is also greater than the number so discharged
during any preceding two years, except 1861. In the latter year it
will be remembered, all the patients in the house were sent away,
and the Asylum was closed up on account of the disturbed condition
of the State.
Successful elopements of patients have been unfr^quent, and none
of those startling fatal casualties incidental to asylum life, and some^
times unavoidable under the best of human management, have hap-
pened, to cast a gloom over our comparatively happy, though afflicted
household. The homicide has been restrained from violence, and the
hand of the suicide has been stayed. We have not always been so
fortunate.
But exemption from accidents, freedom from pestilential visita-
tion, a diminished mortality and increased number of recoveries are
not the only measure of our prosperity. An asylum for the insane is
prosperous in proportion to the amount of home life, rational conduct,
good order, quietude and contentment, secured to all its inmates,
hopeless or curable. In this respect, Providence has smiled upon our
efforts, and intermingled with the daily life of our household, more
than tiie usual share of domestic happiness and tranquility.

The history of the physical decline of most of our patients who
have died, repeats the same story told in the records of all other
asylums, of progressive enervation and masked phthisis, the bronchial
and pulmonic nerves being insusceptible to customary impressions,
and the purulent pulmonary excretion exciting little or no expecto-
ration.
Tubercular deposition may be as rapid in the phthisis of insanity,
as in that oi sane persons, but the breaking down of the deposited tu-
bercle, appears to go on slower.

Oinr thanks are due to the inveetigating committee who visited
ns last winter, for so forcibly urging, andto the last (jfeneral Assem-
bly, for so promptly granting the special appropriation of twenty
thousand dollars asked for, for improvements, repainting and repairs ;
and to vou, gentlemen of the board, are due the thanks of the people
of the State, for the judicious and economical manner in which you
have expended, and are expending the money appropriated, and for
the efficient and substantial character of the improvements you have
made and are making.
The five new cisterns which you have constructed^ and the auxili-
ary reservoir, now rapidly approaching completion, with an aggregate
capacity of one million gallons of water, added to the capacity of the
Old cisterns and reservoir, not less than two hundred and fifty thou-
sand gallons, will give us a supply of water amounting to twelve hun-
dred and fifty thousand gallons, sufficient at our present rate of con-
sumption, about ten thousand gallons per day, to last us through the
longest drought
I am glad that the days of hauling water to supply the laundry,
the kitchen, and heating coils of this vast building are over.
Our ice, also, will hereafter be cut on our premises, arid carried
but a few hundred yards to our ice-bouse, instead of one or more
miles, as heretofore. Nor need the quantity be ever again uncertain,
because no longer dependent on a precarious supply of water. The
qu^ty of our ice may be uniformly good, hereafter, because of our
ability, at pleasure, to overflow the new reservoir from the old, and
make good thitjk ice there, when the weather is not cold enough to
make it elsewhere.
^ The new Alton* stoneware piping, with which you have replaced
* the old, decaying, and obstructed sewer, promises to give entire satis-
faction. It possesses, I think, all the merits claimed for it over other
drainage material, namely : Greater durability, cheapness and saiooth-
Bess, and is laid with facility and at little expense.
' Conformable to your order, the material for "replacing worn out
floors, and for ceiling rooms" (m violent and destructive patients, the
third object specified in the bill making the appropriation, has been
purchased, and the whole lower floor of the center building, includ-
ing the back porch, has been relaid with a good quality of narrow yel-
low pine lumber. The remaining floors which need replacing, and the
bownng alley, the materials for which have also been purchased, can
be»laid at a future time, and at less expense than npw, when our car-
^nter will be be less engaged than at present.
The "painting of the halls and inner building, and the painting of
the wood work on the entire eastern side of the house," contemplated
in the bill, and entrusted to my superintendence, is completed, besides
the painting of the iron window sash of the whole eastern side of the
building, within and without, the floor and Wood work of the amuse-
ment hall, the three upper floors of the center building, the walls and
wood work of the first hall dining rooms, and several bath rooms.
It is to be regretted that the means at our command would not
permit us to go further with the painting. In a large building like
this, painting should be going on constantly. In an economical point
of yiew, no expenditure is so judicious as that made for paint. Our
halls cannot be whitewashed, because the patients would rub off" the
wash as fast as applied, besides painted walls are curative of insanity,
especiallv if their colors are brilliant, and dissimilar on the different
* halls. They please the ejje, and avert the thoughts of patients from
the subject of their delusions,

The piano purchased by yoar order out of the current expense
fund, pending the bill appropriating money for this purpose, was a
most opportune purchase. The old instrument had become useless
from long service, rendering the new one an imperious necessity, as
we had at the time, no other instrumental music for female patients.
The Mason and Hamlin cabinet organ, purchased instead ot the
melodeon contemplated in the bill, proves to oe a very fine instrument
and a most valuable accession to our chapel service, being sweet in
tone, and possessed of the organ swell, peculiar to the best of these
instruments. Our thanks are due Saxton & Co., of St. Louis, for sell-
ing it at a reduced price.
I regard the lowering of the kitchen floor, and the enlargement
of the kitchen by removing, and including the room of the old bakery,
the introduction of Van's roiproved wrought iron range and steam
table, and the copper steam kettle for expeditiously ooiling coffee,
tea, and soup, as among the best of the many substantial improve-
ments made during the past two years. These changes, with the side
entrances, replastering and repainting, have effected an entire trans-
formation in our kitchen, and made it adequate to the large and daily
increasing demand upon it.
With a new hotel broiler to accompany the range, and tramwavs
and trucks to carry food from the latter to the dumb waiters, our culi-
nary department would be complete. Our present method of con-
veying victuals by hand, to the remote waiters, a distance of over
two hundred feet, each way, from the kitchen, is rather too primitive
for the present age of progress, too expensive and too slow. In win-
ter months, the food gets cold before it reaches the tables. The tram-
ways would obviate this, and dispense with four of the six waiter
hands now employed. The cost of this track and trucks would be
about two thousand dollars, and would be saved to the State in a few
yeari' use. I urge these two yet needed improvements.
A well-ordered kitchen is as essential as a well-arranged dispen-
sary^ and the presiding genius of the former, with access to a well
suppJied larder, has as much to do with the well-being of the insane,
as the physician,* who commands the therapeutic armamentarium of
the latter. Each, in his sphere, is a potent instrumentality of relief
and beef is sometimes more effectual th«n physic.
The insane, with few exceptions, are hearty eaters. The enerva-
tion, and often conc'omitant gastric irritability of exhausting mania,
demand an abundance of nntritious and well-cooked food, to rejditce
the daily waste of the system, and to elevate the depressed vitsu sc-
tions to the standard of healthy function, a diet super-abundant for a
sane person, is often requisite.
Ine prospective earl^ immunity from one more source of danger,
from fire, in tne substitution of gas for coal.oil, relieves us of a weight
of anxiety* During (he past two years^ we have had one kerosene
explosion, which might have resulted disastrously, had it occurred
otherwheres and less opportunely for extinction. It was the lamp of
the fourth hall, south, that exploded, but, fortunately, when no one
was in immediate proximity to it, and the attendant was sufficiently
near at hand to promptly put out the flames, before any damage had
been occasioned, other than the destruction of the lamp and contents,*
and the soiling of the wall and floor.
In this connection, let me urge the better security of the build-
ing from fire and its disastrous consequences* I shudder when I con-
template the possibility of our house on fire, with no better means at
hand than we now have forits extinguishment, and no better avenneej
14
of escape for oor patients than are now provided, f^-om the halls im-
mediately adjoining the center building. The structure would not
only have to be abandoned to the flames, but, with every attention
directed to the rescue of the patients, it would be a miracle if all
escaped with life, and if some of the more dangerous among the
rescued did not, in the confusion incident to such a catastrophe, and
freedom from customary restraint, destroy themselves or others.
During the present month, the Central Ohio Lunatic Asylum, at Co-
lumbus, has been burned to the ground, and. with its destruction,
perished six of its unfortunate inmates. Witn fire-proof walls and
zealous care we guard our public archives. The afflicted, confided to
the keeping of the State, demand no less attention.
I recommend that the tops of the house be amply supplied with
water-tanks and hose, and the building throughout, at proper dis-
tances, be amply furnished with means of promptly extinguishing fire.
The rear center building, including the laundry and boiler house,
should be re-covered with some fire-proof material, instead of the
pine shingles which now cover it, and which will have to be replaced,
in many places, on account of leakage.
Fire-proof rear exits should be provided, by means of stone or
iron stairways, from the halls on each side of the center building, not
only to afford better facilities of escape in case of fire, but to furnish
convenient and ready access to the back yard at all times, and
thereby diminish the amount of annoying travel through the passage-
ways of the centre building.
The omission of these stairways was an oversight in the original
construction of the building, which, however, can be easily remedied
by erecting them in the recesses occasioned by the junction of the
northeast and southeast corner rooms with the corridors .of these
halls.
I recommend that the whole ventilating and heating apparatus
be overhauled at as early a date as practicable, and put*in more per-
fect working order, and that drying rooms be provided for all the long
halls, such as \\e have on all the short halls. Though we have gone
long without drying rooms on the long halls, they are almost indis-
pensable for drying the bedding and clothing soiled, and small arti-
cles washed on the halls. By adjoining them to the bath rooms, as in
the I>ean additions, they would serve an additional purpose of warm-
ing the patients while bathing. Our bath rooms get all their heat
from the hall registers, which is insufficient, in very cold weather, to
make them as comfortable as they ought to be.
I have to call your attention to the defective condition of the tin
rooft on the center building and Dean additions, and recommend that
they be repaired, and the plastering, damaged, and fallen off in con-
sequence, and whenever the old floors of the original building are
replaced, as they will all eventually have to be, the interspaces be-
tween tnem and the ceilings beneath, should be filled with cement
and gravel, or other suitable material, to prevent the traiismifision of
fire, sound and water.
I recommend the purchase of two new pianos for the convales-
cent halls, and a music box for levery hall in the house. A visit to the
halls where we now have music, would suflice to convince the most
skeptical as to the power of music over the insane, and the necessity
of abundantljr supplying it. The Pennsylvania hospital for the insane
has twenty pianos, four* melodeons. and other musical instruments in
proportion, and no more patients than we have.
Our long neglected cemetery, wherein lies buried many a cher-
pmmm
■«B
15
ished member of our household, should be inclosed with a neat fence,
to separate it from the remainder of the grounds.
The north basement is sadly in need of better drainage. The air
"which goes from there to supply the halls above it, is too much im-
pregnated with unhealthy telluric emanations and moisture, for long
continued health, and the foundation walls will soon begin to rot and
crumble, unless a speedy remedy is instituted.
Our laundry is badly placed, and our Shaker wasbini? machine is
wearing out. Ihe machinery should be removed from the second to
the ground floor. The constant jarring produced by the steam boil-
ing tub, and the motion of the centriiugal wringer, has produced a
sensible effect on the whole rear center building. The floor of the
ironing room is lowered many inohes in some places, and the bake
oven underneath the wash room will have to be rebuilt, owing to
damage received from constant shaking and leakage.
I recommend tlie construction of a new laundry building, large
enough to include a bake oven, at ri^ht angles north of the present
one, and the introduction of new wasning machinery.
It would be well, also, to consider the propriety and economy of
making aerated bread, as now made by steam, in other asylums.
The old farm house should be repaired and tenanted by a practi-
cal dairyman and farmer.
It will be necessary, before the close of another two years, to
replace, at least, one-third of all our bedding and bed furniture, and
the house needs a much more liberal supply of furniture.
The corridors and bedroom floors of the flrst^ second and fifth
halls, on each side of the house, should be carpeted, as they were
before the war, to give them that home-like, cheerful appearance so
essential to the comfort and recovery of those who occupy them.
The passage ways ol the center building should be covered with
stout hemp matting, so as to drown the noise occasioned by their
almost constant use as thoroughfares.
Many of our dining and bath rooms, and all the attendants' rooms,
require steam heating coils to make them comiortable in winter, ana
our garden would be incomplete without a hot house.
Kenewed efforts ought to be made to decorate our promenade
grounds in front of the asylum with shade trees and shrubbery, and
much care will be requisite to insure success to our efforts, owing to
the barrenness of the soil, or rather absence of soil, it having been re-
moved when the grounds were being leveled. Unexpected success
has attended our efforts at transplanting forest cedars along ttie car-
riage way. They were made to grow by removing and replanting
them along with their native earth. This process will have to be re-
sorted to in all successful transplantations.
Of course, you will not be able to supply these things out of the
current expense fund, legislative appropriations have always, hereto-
fore, been made for such purposes*
A pressing want of the institution at this time is an infirmary,
detached from the main building, for separating cases of serious bodily
disease for special medication ana nursing, and in time of an epidemic,
for isolating the infectious and contagious. I recommend the cottage
infirmary building recently constructed in connection with the Cen-
tral Ohio Lunatic Asylum, at Columbus, as a suitable model.
Our colored insane are rapidly increasing. On the north wing,
the hall set apart for their accommodation is full, and the hall on the
south wing, similarly appropriated, is nearly so. No more colored
males, and but four more colored females can well be accommodated.
16
and there are probably, fit the present time, not less than one handred
and twenty colored insane in the State, or one in every one thousand
of the colored population.
The Legislature should at once imitate the example of other
States, and make suitable provision for this class oi our people.
However unfounded the prejudice of color, the fact is, that it exists
intensified among the insane, and it would perhaps be well to respect
this prejudice, and erect a separate building. A structure of suffi-
cient capacity for the immediate wants of the colored insane, could
be cheaply constructed on the present Asylam grounds, and suffi*
ciently convenient to the present asylum building, to render the
water and steam accessible to it, and a separate corps of officers un-
necessary.
Should the colored insane asvlum be located elsewhere than here,
it should be at Jefferson City, the proper place for our State institu-
tions, so that the Legislature might visit it frequently, and ascertain
its wants, and supply them. This institution has felt the inconve*
nience of distance from the General Assembly in failing to get needed
appropriations, because that body, not seeing our necessities, could
not be impressed by representation, with a belief in their existence.
The removal oi the St. Louis county patients, soon to be effected,
will greatly relieve our over-crowded wards, but at the rate of in-
crease of patients during the past two years, two more years will not
elapse before we are again over full. Since November, of 1866, we
have admitted two huni&ed and ninety-nine patients, and gained over
one hundred.
The increasing facilities of travel make the asylum, every year,
more accessible to the insane in remote parts of the State, and the
recovery of the people from the financial embarrasment consequent
upon the late prevalence of war in their midst, enables them to better
provide, than heretofore, for their insane charges.
In 1860, the census of the United States gave the proportion of
insane as one to every thirteen hundred of the whole population.
The census of the same year ^ave to Missouri twelve hundred and
eighty insane, demented and idiotic. Subsequent estimates, care-
fully prepared, make the present proportion throughout the United
States, about one to seven hundred.
New York, has one in nine hundred, Massachusetts, one in four
hundred, and California, one in six hundred.
The proportion of one to one thousand would give to Missouri,
with her present population, about fifteen hundred insane. Of this
number, three hundred and fifty can be accommodated here, two
hundred and fifty at the new St. Louis county asylum, and one hun-
dred and fifty at St. Vincent's Asylum, St. Louis, making a total provi-
sion for seven hundred and fifty, and leaving half of the insane of the
State still unprovided for.
The great battle for the nation's life is ended, "the clash of re-
sounding arms" has ceased, but the never-ending conflict of life
goes on.
Our wounded patriots no longer claim our attention, but the
mentally maimed are all about us, calling for sympathy and aid. Our
present means of relief are inadequate.
The duty of making more ample provision for the care of the
seven hundred and fifty uncared for insane of the State, now devolves
upon the Legislature, and the question presents itself as to whether
the present asylum had better be enlarged, or new ones erected
elsewhere.
17
It would be more Economical to add to the present structure, but,
in my opinion, not more conducive to the welfare of the insane. Three
hundred and fifty patients, and fifty to seventy-five oflBcers and em-
ployees, making an aggregate ol at least four hundred people, are as
naany as should be congregated at one time in one compact building,
far too many in time of epid'^mic vidtatioiu
The *' Association of Medical S'iperintendents of Hospitals for the
Insane," has vaccillated somewhat in its opinion on this sulgect; at
one time declaring two hundreil and fifYy^ and at another declaring
five hundred as the maximum number. The average capacity of State
asylums now in operation in the United States^ ia about three hun*
dred.
A large central asylum is also objectionable^ because of it« inac*
cessibility to many parts of the State. The statistics, collected by that
eminent statistician, Dr. Ed. Jarvis, of Massachusetts, show conclu-
sively that the benefits of insane hospitals are mostly bestowed upon
the ii^sane of ac^jacent and readily accessible counties. New York
has one large asvlum at Utica, which is the common receptacle for
all her insane. Ohio, until the recent destruction of one by fire, had
three ; a northern, a southern and a central one. I recommend the
Ohio plan as the preferable one for providing for our insane. New
York is now adopting it by erecting: two more asylums,- in different
portions of the State, instead of enlarging the one at Dtica, and Ken-
tucky is now doing likewise.
It is not necessary to Urge upon the General Assembly the duty
of providing lor all her insane, it is only necessary that that body
should be convinced of the necessity for the discharge of the duty.
It was the custom of another, and in many respects an exemplary
people, in a remoter age, to destroy those among their number who
did not promise, by reason of early acquired or congenital, mental or
physical deformity, to become useful members of the State. Thei^
unfortunates were looked upon as dead weights in battle, and patriotic
mothers regarded them as incumbrances, and grieved not at the law
which lopped them off as excrescences from the body politic.
Our mothers cling to their deformed offspring with greater tena-
city and affection than to the sound, and it is our bpast that we
take care of all our unfortunates, that they may enjoy as much of life
and realize as much as possible from the talents God has fi:iven them.
The idiotic and the feeble minded are trained to think ; the deaf and.
blind, through the senf^e of touch, are taught to hear and see ; th<^>!
mute speaks, an inaudible, yet intelligible language, and the unfor--
tunate lunatic goes out restored from the liospital for the insane, to>
reunite the severed ties of the family, to become again a tax payer of,
the State, and supporter of the househola. The latter returna to so-
ciety "as one risen from the dead," and testifies to the wisdom and
Ehiianthrophy of the State, that restores to the family circle, and the-
ody politic, valued members otherwise lost to both.
We have refused admittance, as in duty bound, under the law, to.
many idiotic and feeble minded persons, during the past two years..
We could have done them no good could we lawfully have admitted
them. The large number of these unfortunates in the State, suggests
the necessity and duty, on the part of our law makers, of establishing
a training school for their education and support
Other States are far in advance of our own, in providing for this,
class of unfortunates.
I congratulate yon, gentlemen, upon your snijLCiessfnl management:
of the financial affairs of the institution during t^ past two y^ars.

Thifl sum of three dollars and fifty-two cents per week includes
all that we receive for bedding and bed room furniture, medicine, and
all articles of personal comfort and convenience, except clothing. It
include8,a]so,the customary repairs and improvements, and some ad-
ditional ones rendered necessary in consequence ot the sudden filling
up of the house to its utmost capacity. These repairs and improve-
nients amounted during the past year, to about five thousand dollars,
which, if deducted, would materially lessen the actual cost of main-
tenance of each patient.
It would be well if the board rate for county pstients, or the an-
nual appropriation now provided by the statutes, were increased, so
that we might be enabled annually to make all required improve-
ments and repairs, and to provide more liberally for our patients, with-
out having to call so oftea on the General Assembly for special appro-
priations.
The present appropriation of sixteen thousand dollars per year,
was fixed when we had not over half the jiumber of patients that are
now in the asylum. The annual appropriation should be increased to
twenty-five or thirty thousand dollars, to enable us to properly keep
up the repairs of the building, farm, garden, fences, walks, steam
coils, gas fixtures, water apparatus, etc., and to make up deficiencies
in the hoard of county patients at two dollars and a half per week,
the present statutory limit of charge for board of such patients.
The rapid progress of provision for the care of the insane through-
out the united States within the present century, the improved
methods of treatment now in vogue, and the successful results attend-
ing the same, are sources of gratification to the philanthropist, and the
man of science, and indicative of the humanitarian and enlightenea
spirit of the age in which we live.

The United States has now abont 35,000,000 inhabitants, and about
85,000 insane, re(]^uiring asylum provision, so that over one-third of the
insane of the United States are now provided for in asylums.
When the greater cost of insane asylums, over all other charitable
institutions is considered, it must be conceded that the American
people have made exceedingly rapid progress in provision for their
insane.

While much remains to be done for our asylum, before it will be
equal to others in States no older than our own, a good deal has been
done, especially during the past two years, to promote the comfort,
happiness and cure of our insane. •
1 have not space to enumerate all you have accomplished in this
direction. Let it snfSce to say, that every day has witnessed some
new and beneficial improvement With the limited funds at our com-
mand, we have been unprecedentedly prosperous, and I am grateiul
^ you, gentlemen of the Board of Managers, and to that Providence
whose fostering care over our house has been so signally manifest, in
enabling you to accomplish so much substantial and enduring good
from such meagre means.
TREATMENT.
MORAL AGBNTS.
It is, doubtless, expected that we should say something respecting
the means employed for the restoration of our patients, and to the
medical members of the board, a few remarks respecting the general
pathology, nosology and therapeutics of insanity, may not be unir
teresting.
24
Three quarters of a century ago, the celebrated Binel, in France,
apd the philaathropic Tuke, in England, abolished, from their respec-
tive hospitals, the manacle and the dungeon, and substituted kindness
for violence, medical treatment for physical restraint
From that day to this, lunatic asylums have been gradually as-
suming the charac^teristics of hospitals, presided over by numane and
enlightened medical and other officers, and differing in their appoint-
ments from other hospitals, only in the better security and^ watchful-
ness provided for their inmates against escape, or personal ii\jury.
Their inmates are now regarded as afflicted human beings, requir-
ing moral and medical treatment, rather than fieffds in human shape,
to be confined and punished lor supposed diabolical possession.
An insane asylum is an aggregation of the consequences of dis-
appointed ambition, physical affliction, unsatiated avarice, blasted
hopes, unrequited anection, domestic affliction and bereavement,
vicious indulgences, crime and sin and folly. "The iniquities of the
parents visited unto the third and fourth generation," are there mani-
fest, and the offspring of the comparatively sinless, afflicted by the
mysterious hand of Providence, are also there.
All ages, sexes and conditions ; the evil and the good, the high
and low, the rich and poor are there, all reduced, by loss of intellect,
to one common level. There, the prince removed from his palace,
and the vassal from his cot*, the intellectual giant, breaking like the
shattered oak, and the mental pigmy, bent and distorted by the storm
of life's conflict, alike command our sympathy, and the sympathy de-
manded, is an essential element in their treatment.
Kind words, personal attention, and acts of kindness evincing
our sympathy and friendship, will often subdue the most violent
maniac, and always exert a favorable influence over the melancholic.
Sympathetic kindness is the "balm of Gilead'^ to the wounded in spirit
and the broken-hearted, on whichever side of that shadowy line of
demarkation, separating sanity from insanity, we may manifest it. The
law of kindness, as our by-laws require, continually governs here, and
all whom we employ are required to obey it.
Personal surveillance takes the place, in a great measure, of mecha-
nical restraint. The strait waist, the leathern wristlet., the lock-up
seat and bedstead, for the destructive, the impulsively homicidal and
suicidal, are in use only when attendants are so few, or so much em-
ployed that they cannot be constantly watchful of each individual.
The dark room and the shower bath, for seclusion or punishment, we
do not employ. Mechanical control irritates patients. They regard
it as degrading. The less of this kind of management the better.
Anaesthetics and narcotics are preferable, as means of restraint, to
camisols and bed straps.
EXERCISE.
Exercise in the open air, and a bountiful allowance of sunlight
are salutary. Long walks, in pleasant weather, compose the mind
and invigorate the oody. Our patient, who can be entrusted out of
25
the asylum, walk out an hour or two twice daily, with their attendants,
whenever the weather is not too inclement for Buch exercise.
LABOR.
I regard a judicious system of organized labor for patients, as one
of the most efficient means we can employ toward effecting their re-
storation. It is both prophylactic and curative ; prophylactic in main-
taining and improving the tone of the physical organs ; curative in
the occupation it gives to the mind, modifying, dissipating or holding
in obeyance, insane thoughts, and in the healthy fatigue it produces
in the body, substituting the wholesome sleep which naturally follows
bodily weariness, for the abnormal and fitful somnolency of narcotics.
Idleness begets many vices, among them those which not infrequently
lead directly to mental derangement. By arresting the prim^ cause,
we may prevent or modify its effects.
I would make labor, in a certain sense, compulsory. I would lead
the patient out to work by a system of rewards and special privileges
for any manual labor he might perform, and deprive nim of those re-
wards in case of refusal. ^The laborer should always be worthy of his
hire."
This, in eflect, would be the same as drivine to labor, but not so
objectionable, and the end accomplished would be better on mind
and body. Paradoxical as appears the proposition, this system would
be both compulsory and voluntary. Compulsory as that of the tiller
of the soil, whose daily recurring wants, compel him to labor for the
bread which God giveth to alibis children, on condition that they
earn it in the ^^sweat of their faces," voluntary, because the patient
may either forego the labor or the enjoyment of its reward.
Labor will probably be more generally employed, better regulat-
ed and somewhat more compulsory than now, in the psychopathic
hospital of the future, but few, I apprehend, will ever be found will-
ing to introduce into insane asylums the systematic coercive drudgery
oi the penitentiary, though distinguished alienists now advocate it.
I would esteem goaded labor as detrimental to an unwilling patient
as mechanical restraint. Compulsory exercise associated with pleas-
ure of some kind would be less objectionable.
Our male patients work about the farm, dairy and garden, our
female patients in the laundrv, kitchen and sewing room, and all help
more or less about the work done in their respective halls. We have
not been able to dispense with much paid help on account of the
labor done by patientfe. They work too irregularly to be always re-
lied on, but the work clone by them is remunerative in bodily health,
mental quietude and restoration, and this is what we want,
AMUSEMENTS.
^ Amusements and recreation play an important part in the resto#
ration of the insane, and the new gymnasium and bowling alley,
provided for in last winter's appropriation, will add much to our facil-
ities for cure. We now have croquet, billiards, chess, dominoes, cards,
dances, lectures^ magic lantern exhibitions, tableaux, theatrical exhi-
bitions and music. No agencry so potent as the latter in calnfing the
excitement of the maniac and dispelling the gloomy thoughts of the
melancholic. Few there are, sane or insane, who are not susceptible
to its influence. It has more than ^^charms to soothe" or power to
26
calm. It cures, especially when the patient is not only susceptible of
being "moved by concourse of sweet sounds," but has *'mu8ic enough
in his soul" to produce them, through mastery of an instrument.
DEVOTIONAL EXERCISB3.
Devotional exercises, and the readine of the scriptures exert a
very beneficial influence over the minds of those accustomed to them
during sanity, if their delusion appertain not to scripture subjects.
The bible is forbidden to religions monomaniacs, and such patients
are kept away from the chapel.
MUTUAL INFLUENCE.
Patients are frequently curative of each other. One monomaniac,
unconscious of his own insanity, will readily recognize the * existence
of mental aberration in another^ and, if sympathetically constitutei
will forget his own delusions while commisderating the misfortunes of
others, or in endeavoring to correct what are to him manifest absurdi-
ties, hence the importance of classification of patients according to
their social afSnities and their disorders, and hence^ also, arises one of
the advantages of treatment within oyer treatment without an asylum
for the insane.
DIETARY.
The dietary of an insane hospital should not only be wholesome
and substantial, but it should abound in variety. Some patients are
constantly asking ior particular delicacies, and where gratification is
possible, they should have their requests complied with. Those nn*
fortunate lypemaniacs, who fancy that the world bears heavily upon
them, that they are friendless and forsaken objects of derision or ap-
probrium, are often made worse when we have to refuse them any
particular article of diet which they crave.
CLOTHING.
The clothing of a patient often materially influences the result of
treatment.
A patient made insane by reverse of fortune, and accustomed
during the days of his prosperity and sanity, to broadcloth and the
artificial comforts and conveniences of wealth, will not always con-
valesce so rapidly if fed on plain diet and clad in homespun, though the
latter be good enough for any man. An insane asylum is not a social
reformatory school. A judicious blending of restraint and indulgencei
• exists in every well-ordered asylum, and habits not always the most
economical, are sometimes fostered in patients, when such a course
promises to cure.
The removal of all sources of irritation from a patient, entire
change of scenery, and surroundings, placing the over-wrought mind
under the most favorable conditions for rest and recuperation, are es-
sential to recovery. The exhausted mind, like the wearied body, re-
gains its lost tone by timely relaxation, opportune exercise, whole-
some food, mental recreation and ample rest.
27
MEDICAL TREATMENT.
In those atonic states of the nervous system accompanying mel-
ancholia and hysteria, no tonic proves so speedily and certainly re-
constructive of weakened nerve power as nux vomica, iron and opium
combined, as circumstances require, with aloine and protoiodide of
mercury.
Therapeutic placebos exert a powerful moral influence for good,
on the insane mind and will often come to the aid of the alienist phy-
sician when other means fail him. Give a patient the remedy he
deems most potent in addition to any other treatment you may insti-
tute, if it be not contraindicated.
blisters and emetics do great good in melancholia by rousing the
system, and transferring the attention from delusion to local uneasi-
ness and pain. Antispasmodics, especially assafoetida and Hoffman's
anodyne, with valerian, are temporarily b^neficial in melancholia.
The cold bath is here of much service.
The warm bath is relaxant to the skin and calmative of the nerv-
ous system. Anaesthetics are sometimes invaluable, especially chlo-
roform saturated with camphor, administered by inhalation, in subdu-
ing exhausting maniacal paroxysm and epileptic spasm. Maximum
doses of ferrocyanide of iron, and of the bromide of potassium have
in our hands aborted, but never cured epilepsy.
The whole class of narcotics comes to our aid, and opium is the
sine que non,
1 would part with any other remedy before I would give up
opium. When the erratic wanderings of the insane mind are re-
strained in narcotic splints, it is in the most favorable state for recov-
ery. Morphine administered with valerian, and black drop, given in
beer, are the best forms of giving an opiate. Tiie more lupulin in the
beer the better.
I recall one case of unremitting excitement which would always
yield to opium given with beer, when the same dose of the remedy
was ineffectual administered any other way. He would converse
rationally for hours under this treatment, and his wife thought him
recovering, though he was rapidly wearing out from maniacal exhaus-
tion and physical complications.
Recent melancholia almost always yields readily to opium,
through the sleep engendered and the substitution of the peculiar
exhilarant influence of the drug for the diseased impressions of the
patient
Of course the condition of all the physical organs will be inquired
into, and if any co-existent or precedent bodily disease can be detect-
ed, it must be remedied, if possible, by appropriate medication.
The quantity and frequency of repetition of any hypnotic must
be commensurate with the effect desired as in delirium tremens.
A correct pathology and sound nomenclature have much to do
with the proper treatment of insanity.
I think when the scalpel, the microscope and the crucible shall
have done for physiology, physiological chemistry and pathology, what
the telescope has alreadv done for astronomy, medical alienists will,
with one accord, admit tnat the true disease, in every case of mental
alienation, consists not in its symptomatic manifestations, but in the
altered molecular action, and consequent structural cereoral change
existing precedent to the mental derangement The term functional
insanity, with its attendant erroneous nomenclature, will then be
28
abolished. Physicians will speak of the structural change and its pre-
cedent co-existent, and consequent abnormal molecular action, as the
true disease, and regard the functional derangement as the efiect of
disease, obscure or manifest., and not the disease itself. Then the
homicidal and suicidal manias, the dipso, klepto and pyromanias, the
whole class of monomanias, moral insanities and melancholias, will he
discarded, or employed to represent prominent functional maifest-
ation.
When the pathology of epilepsy, catalepsy, chorea, paralysis and
paresis shall become known, and their exact relation to the pathologj
of insanity better understood, then will insanity be called epilepti'.
cataleptic, choreic, or insanity from or with epilepsy, catalepsy, cho-
rea, etc., according as investigation shall reveal the existence of the
materies morhi of these affections to be identical with, antecedent tc.
or co-existent with, the true materies morbij or altered cerebral mole-
cular structure of insanity.
The nomenclature of mental diseases will then be as exact as that
of chemistry, and physicians engaged in the practice of our specialtr
will understand each other better than now, when a disease is name!
in regard to its specific nature. Such terms as dipsomania and oino-
mania will not mean, as now, either mania apotu or m^ania pro poiu,
according as the person using the term may regard an over indalgence
in alcohol as the cause, or the effect, of the insanity. Erotico-mania
will then no longer signify either the melancholy of unre<]^uited love,
or the violent, insatiable venerial tury ot the nymphomaniac.
A specific lesion of the cerebrospinal nervous system, or a reflect-
ed one of the vascular or absorbent systems or physical organs, will
be looked for in every case, and the disease will derive its name from
the structural lesions or pathological changes upon which it is fonnd
to be dependent.
^ Pyromanias and kleptomaniacs then, as now, may become insane
when detected in the acts of arson or thelt, or their mental derange-
ment may precede these violations of the laws, but they will be
known to the pathologist by another and more scientific nosology.
These terms may answer well the purpose of the criminal pleader at
the bar, but in the domain of psychopathic medicine, they do not help
the cause of science.
INTfiBESTINO OASES.
Some interesting cases have fallen under our observation within
the past two years.
We record first the case of H. J., aet four years at time of admis-
sion. Her mother had puerperal mania. This child was lively and
intelligent until immediately subsequent to an attack of measles,
which occurred a short time before admission. Has had some epi-
leptic seizures since, and frequent outbursts of maniacal excitement,
characterized by great destructiveness and violent fits of uncontroll-
able passion. U nable to talk. Comprehends pretty well when spoken
to. Addicted to masturbation.
6. T., aet. eight years, when admitted. Had'ponvulsions when an
infant, and occasional spells (probably epileptiform seizures) as he
grew older, but seemed as healthy and intelligent as most children,
until fourth year. At that time inflammation of the brain destroyed
his mind. Now has epileptic dementia. Addicted to masturbation.
His parents are healthy.
F. J., aet ten years. Admitted when eight years of age. A fall,
29
in his fotfrth year, deprived him of speech, which he has never regain-
ed, though he now utlers a few words, and comprehends moderately
well when spoken to. Is not epileptic^ hut maniacal. He is always
in motion, violently passionate and destructive.* Can brook no re-
straint.
Fannie A.— No history before admission. Has spells of period-
teal sick headache^ and violent passion. No epileptic or epileptiform
seizure!^. Attacks occur in day time. Admitted September 27, 1865,
and is now about nine yeara old.
A case of chronic hydrocephalic dementia came in recently, and
is worthy of record.
The history of the case, as given by her father, makes it one of
acute general mania, of two months' duration, with violent impulse.
The hydrocephalus was congenital.
The autopsy revealed no sub-arachnoidan or subserous surface
effusion. The water was all in the lateral ventricliss, and amounted
to forty-eight fluid ounces. The anterior lobes of the brain were push-
ed forwarcL attenuated, and compressed against the os frontis. The
middle and posterior lobes were reduced, by the pressure of the in-
ter-ventricular effusion, to a thickness varymg from one to five lines^
and resisted, under the knife, more like semi cartilaginous than med-
tillary matter. The thin cerebral envelope that inclosed the water
seemed, in places, like the sac of an abscess ready for the surgeon's
knife. White and srey matter, in about equal j[)roportions, composed
what remained of tne posterior and middle hemispheres.
This patient, also, had had rickets and curvature of spine.
She came in on the eighth and died on the twentieth of the pres-
ent month, in her twenty-seventh year. We made the following
measurements :
Height, anterior median line 4 ft, 8 in.
Length, tollowing spine posteriorly 5 ft., 2 in*
Antero posterior diameter of thorax W\ in.
Greatest circumference of thorax 88^ in.
Oceipito frontal circumference of head 27| in.
Line over vertex, from ethmoidal spine to occipital protu-
berance 18 in.
Lateral antero posterior semi-circumference of right side of
head 21 in.
Antero posterior diameter of head 10^ in.
Transverse diameter of head, between the ears 7i iw-
Length of face, from ethmoidal spine to chin 4^ in.
The history of this case recalls a class of cases, against the send-
ing of which to the asylum, we desire to enter our earnest protest
They are hopeless, harmless cases, in which early dissolution is appar-
ent They can only die here, and had better be allowed to remain
and die at home. The fatigue and exposure on the wav here often
hastens their demise. Bucn cases are usually the senile demented,
puerperal and typhomania cases. They reach us almost in articxilo
mortis^ and over-sanguine friends sometimes wonder that they do not
f ecover. It is sad to have to admit such patients,
"Whose poor bnini • • * dotb, bj tiM idle commenti thikt they luktf,
ForteU the ending of mortolitj.''
But humanity forbids us to bar the door, even though within there
exists no hope.
30
Since the last biennial report, thirteen cases have been adEnitted^
who have died from maniacal exhaustion in from two to thirty days
after admission.
I desire now to address a few words to those directly interested in
insanity.
A morbid public sentiment, extending to those who should be
more enlightened, attaches an odium to the unfortunate victim of in-
sanity. He is not always regarded, as he should be, as an afflicted
brother, demanding care ana sympathy, and prompt medical aid, as
any other sick person.
The knowledge of the existence of this diseased public sentiment
often leads the conscious insane to conceal from their friends the
early manifestations of their malady, and to defer efforts for cure, until
the time lor relief has passed. This ieeling also leads misguided
friends to screen the vagaries of those whom they esteem, from the
public gaze, and to keep them out o1 an asylum until too late for cure.
It is thus that the misdirected kindness of mistaken friends leads
to death, or to that which is but little better, confirmed chronic insan-
ity.
Friends of patients should bear in mind that delay in treatment
of insanity, as in the treatment of all other grave disorders, is danger-
ous, while no serious pliysical disease yields so readily to treatment
as recent mental derangement. Three fourths of all cases treited
within three months after the first symptoms are manifest, recover,
while not much more than one-fourth of the cases of longer standing
get well, and nearly all recoveries take place within one year from
commencement of the attack. Insanity of longer standing than one
year, is nearly hopeless.
Marked eccentricities and sudden changes of character are some-
times overlooked until an unexpected suicide renders friendly assist-
ance unavailing, and robs society of a valued member, whom prompt
asylum treatment might have restored to family and friends.
A startling and unprovoked homicide, or other stupendous crime,
is necessary to convince some people of the existence of insanity.
DECOYING PATIENTS TO THE ASYLUM.
«
I have to reiterate the oft-repeated protest against the reprehen-
sible, but innocently practiced device, so often improperly resorted
to by those having the custody of the icsane, to induce them to leave
home and come willingly to the asylum.
Any deception practiced towards patients, either in regard to
the object of their removal from home, or respecting their place of
destination, is pernicious, and should always be avoided.
This practice evidently originates in a very natural desire to get
along well with the patient, to have as little difSculty with him as
possible, while on the way to the asylum, and is sometimes regarded
as exceedingly adroit; but, while it relieves friends of a temporary
burden, in transitu^ it not unfrequently, at the asylum, entails a
heavy and enduring one upon those there having the subsequent care
of the patient, and materially retards, and sometimes effectually pre-
vents his restoration to reason.
Never promise a confiding patient a pleasure trip to a distant
friend, as is often unwittingly done, and then bring him direct to the
asylum, unless, indeed, as mav justly be done, he be told that the asy-
lum is the abode of friends who understand tne nature and treatment
81
of his mental inalady, and will sympatbize with him in his a£9iction,
and endeavor to restore him speedily to reason.
He may be assured, also, that he will find pleasant companions
htoe, even among those similarly afflicted, and that he will here have
an opportunitv to enjoy agreeable pleasure walks, church privileges,
relaxation and amusements suited to his state of mental and bo'lily
health.
Never make definite promises to a patient respecting his proba-
ble length of stay in the asylum. The most experienced adept in the
treatment and prognosis of mental alienation, cannot pronounce, with
absolute certainty, upon the duration of any case, or foretell the man-
ner of its termination.
In all our intercourse with mankind, sane or insane, honesty is,
certainly, the best policy. If patients are decoyed here by false prom-
i8es,which cannot be fulfilled on arrival, they lose faith in those friends
who have been instrumental in getting them here through deception,
and the transition is easy and natural, from loss of confidence in
friends, to distrust and suspicion of strangers, therefore^ deal candidly
with every patient. If he objects to coming to the asylum, encounter
his resistance, and combat, if possible, his objections to coming, be-
fore leaving home with him.
Tell him that competent judges have pronounced him insane, and
that the mind, like the body, when diseased, should have relaxation
and medical treatment, and that a residence in the asylum promises
the best chance for speedy recovery. If you fail to induce him to
come by honest argument and persuasion, then bring him by over-
povrering force, rather than through deception. By such a course,
the interests of the patient are better subserved, and the cure is often
begun.
PRIMATURE REMOVALS AND VISITS.
Premature removals of patients, during their convalescence,
often result in hopeless relapses, and inopportune visits, on the part of.
friends, are equally disastrous in their consequences. I
It is painful to see promising acute cases thus converted into
hopeless chronic insanity, and the life prospects of the patient forever
blasted, by the iigudicious conduct of indiscreet, though well-mean- I
ing friends.
No one would think of imposing upon the body, just recovering
from a physical disease, the customary burdens endured by it with
impunity, while in perfect health. Yet, friends insist on taking pa-
tients home just as soon as delusions vanish, and on seeing them even
before. The effect of subh a course is to throw upon the mind a bur-
den of retrospective thought, which it is not sufficiently recovered to
endure.
Wait until the cure is complete, before removing a patient, or
seeking an interview with him. Familiar scenes and faces excite the
mind of the recovering patient to diaeased^instedi^ of healthy, action.
Dormant delusions are awakened into new life, the work of the phy-
sician undone, and the fate of the patient sealed, by the conduct of
those whose interest and desire it is, above all others, to have him re-
stored.
When written to upon this subject, we always advise candidly,
but when those connected to patients by the closest ties of consan-
guinity, present themselves at the office, and ask to be permitted to
see a wife or a husband, a son or a daughter, a father or a mother, we
Si
cannot find it in our hear! to peremptorily refuse the solicited inter-
view, notwithstanding our duty to counties, in the case of patients
sent and maintained by them, would Seem to require such a course.
BEQUESTS.
This institution has never been favored by any considerable do-
nation from any source, except the State. Yet, no institution in the
State is more worthy the attention of our philanthropic millionaires
than this, and a legacy bequeated to no other institution could more
thoroughly perpetuate the name of the donor.
What better inscription over one's grave than one like this : ''He
bestowed his means to restore lost inlellects."
The trustees of the Massachusetts general hospital acknowledge
the receipt, for last year, of $43,312 75, from donations and legacies.
How long shall it be before the Managers of this institution shall be
permitted to publish a similar acknowledgment ?
ACKNOWLKDGMKNTS.
Our thanks are due the Presbyterian Board of Education, Ameri-
can Tract Society, Ticknor & Fields,. Putnam & Sons, Koutled^e &
Sons, Nichols & Noyes, 0. D. b\ Randolph, Iveson, Phinney, Blake-
man & Co., and Oopperthwaite & Co., for gratuitous donations of
books, in all, five hundred volumes, obtained through solicitation of
the philanthropic Miss Dix, to whom we also desire to record our
thanks.
We are under obligations to Reverends Fisher, Caughland, Peniu
Shumate, Farrah, Pedelupe, Campbell and Williams, for ministerial
services, also to our Stewards for conducting the chapel services regu
larly, in the absence of ministers from abroad.
The editor of the Guardian^ of St. Louis, has our thanks for the
separate contributions of books and exchanges, ^nd the Young Men s
Christian Association, of St. Louis, for bibles, testaments and tracts.
Our thanks are also due the Surgeon General, United States Army,
for circulars Nos. 6, 6 and 7.
The following papers and periodicals come regularly to us:
Missouri Republican, Missouri Democrat. St. Louis Dispatch, Central
Christian Advocate, Guardian, St. Joseph Herald, St. Joseph Union,
Hannibal Courier, Wakenda Record, Ralls County Record, Lagrange
American, Fulton Telegraph, North Missouri Messenger, Ledger,
Mexico, Colman's Rural World, Harper's Weekly and Monthly,
Godey's Lady's Book, New York Herald, Danville Star, Democratic
Picket Guard, Louisiana Republican, Grand. River News, Chillicothe
Spectator, Boonville Eagle, State Times, St. Charles Cosmos, Warren
County Banner, Jefferson County Leader, Southwest Missourian.
Anzeiger Des Westens, Yolk's Zeitung, Westliche Post, Mississippi
Blatter and Der Fortschritt.
These papers are all appreciated by our patients, and are among
our instrumentalities of cure. I would be glad if the list includeu
every paper in the State.
DISGIPLIKE.
A review of the interior workings of the. house is, at the present
time, quite satisfactory. Personal friendship and harmony prevail
among the employees, and a more than usual amount of congeniality
33
exists between attendants and patients. During' the past year, a
steady improvement in the esprit de corps of the house has been
manifest.
The fatigaing, and often trying duties of attendants, entitle those
who faithfully discharge them, to our gratitude and esteem, and the
qualities they are required to possess, intelligence, morality, even
temper, affability and sympathy for the afflicted, command the appro-
bation of mankind in whatever sphere of life displayed.
The assistant physicians, steward, matron, and supervisor, are
each entitled to my grateful thanks for fidelity and zealous discharge
of duty.
CONCLUSION.
I cannot close this report without expressing to you, gentlemen
of the board, my grateful thanks for opportune and prudent counsel,
harmonious support and united confidence, and for that singular
unanimity, which has uniformly characterized your official action in
everything appertaining to the true interests of the institution and to
which is mainly due its present prosperous condition.
I am sure that a grateful public would unite with me in thanking
you, could they know the amount of gratuitous and disinterested
labor you have performed, during the last two years, in the cause of
Christian charity and philanthropy.
I am sure, also, that you have a higher reward than my poor
thanks or public gratitude. Tou have the approval of satisfied con-
sciences, and what is still higher, of Him who^enturies ago, uttered
those significant words, still re-echoing from ^Palestine : ^Inasmuch
as ye have done it unto the least of these, my brethren, ye have done
it unto me."

REPOKT
OF TBH
SUPERINTKNDENT OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
^ m^ \
To the General AsBemlHy :
If, in midst of the multifarious business which presses upon you,
this report can gain a moment's attention, I venture to say it will af-
ford you gratification.
Nothing can be more grateful, in public, as well as in private
labor, than continuous prosperity, and this is the fair test by which to
try the utility of any movement, which has within it the means of self
development, and is designed for general and perpetual use. Of this
character is the plan of public instruction devised by your predeces-
sors, now deeply fixed in the interests and affections of the people,
and by that test is to be tried. It is free ; capable of indefinite expan-
sion ; has settled to its place in the commonwealth, and will continue
to grow with its growth, and strengthen with its strength. But, lest
the moment claimed for this report be nearly exhausted, I present, at
the outset, these considerations :
1. JDo not attempt any further amendments of the school law^
except in few unimportant partioulan^ which, in due time, will be
proposed to the Committees on Education. In 186S, a general school
law was passed, which, althon/2:h excellent in the principttl features,
was found to be too complex for successful operation by the people.
At the last session, the same law was reduced and simplified, but as
the ojScers elected by its provisions did not assume their duties until
September last, it is scarcely possible to judge of its efficacy. By-
comparison with similar laws in other States, I conclude that the.
school laws of this State are well adapted to the objects contemplated.
The best laws, those of the oldest institutions in this country, fail to .
give entire satisfaction ; and it is a curious fact, that fewer objections .
are presented to the school laws in Missouri, than the people of the
New England and Middle States urge against .their respqcjtive codes
with so many years of peaceable experience. ) ^
2. Complete the system of public instruction by, t^ie eptftbli^h-.-
ment of schools for the proper edacation of its teachers. The time for
such schools arrived long ago, but the opportunity never presented
itself more auspiciously than now. A number of years ago, a bill was
passed, authorizing the erection of a normal professorship at the State
University, but the generous offer of the State was rejected by the
curators. This was at the time when the State was deeply involved
in debt, and when the comparatively new experiment of common
schools scarcely justified the measure. Now the public debt is in
course of rapid liquidation, and the public credit firm and surely ap-
preciating, and there will be a surplus from the general revenue, after
all demands are met. The time is approaching when the honor of
this enterprise will not belpng to you ; and that consideration urges
you to complete the work so well begun, and add lustre to a history
already replete with great and good acts. For the first time, a plan
of normal schools, both practical and economical, is proposed, and I
respectfully refer you to its provisions, contained in a subsequent
chapter.
3. Slightly amend the chapter relating to county superintend-
ents, to the effect that those officers may receive equitable compensa*
tion for the labor required of them. The provision, as it now stands,
is absurd and upjust. Glance over the list of special duties required
by law of the superintendent, and then at the compensation provided
for him, and mark the ridiculous contrast. The work done by the
various county superintendents may be fairly estimated by rea<iing
their reports included in this volume. We are now sufficiently ac-
quainted with the county superintendency to appreciate that office as
it deserves. It is now an indispensable part of the school system, and
for that reason, it is surely the wisest economy to properly sustain it
I suggest, therefore, that section 49, of the chapter concerning county
superintendents, be amended by striking off the provision that he sAall
not serve, and receive compensation for, more than sixty days, unless
otherwise ordered by the county court. He should be permitted to
serve as long as the public interests require his services, and no
longer; but when actually employed in that service, he should be
properly compensated, whether the time be Un or three hundred davs.
4. The article concerning the organization of separate schools^
as far as it concerns the duty of boards of education, should be revised
and made explicit. As it now stands, it only defeats the object in
view, and it is questionable whether or not it is in contravention to
the provisions of the Constitution, and so long as it so remains it is al-
most inoperative.
5. An act providing for the encouragement and support of teach-
ers'institutes will be presented by the proper committee, for youf
favorable consideration. Almost every county in the State now has
an institute regularly organized. What benefit has been received b;
the teachers, and, indirectly, by the cause of public education, can be
estimated by a glance at the reports of the respective county super-
intendents. It has become necessary that the institute should be
made a legal organization, as well as a mere educational school. Pub-
lic school teachers should, by virtue of their office, be made members
of the county institute, and be required to attend them. The inci-
dental expenses absolutely necessary at the semi-annual sessions of
the 'institute, should be partially borne by the teacher and the county,
as both arel3enefited; and directors should be made to understand
that the time occupied thus by the teacher is neither to be lost nor to
be. "made up."
6. I also urge the adoption of an act instituting and maintaining
township "school libraries." A careful study of the plans pursued by
other States on this subject, reveals the cause of their failure, in some
cases. It originates in the oompuUory nature of the acts, instead of
making the establishment of a library purely voluntary upon the part
of school authorities, and only in compliaiice with the clearly pro-
nounced will of the people in the township. If an act can be passed,
which authorizes a certain per cent, of the income for common school
purposes to be applied to the purchase of books and periodicals, but
does not oompel this to be done, I am assured that it will meet the
cordial sanction of all intelligent citizens. Every city, town and vil-
lage in the State, organized under special acts for school purposes,
and every populous township, will soon have a perpetual fund, and an
increasing library, to which individual contributions will be added, to
make it of incalculable advantage to the youth, and the pride of the
community.
As required by law to make a statement of the work done in this
department, I have the honor to say that the work has been prose-
cuted with delight. County after county has been organized under
instructions from this department, until, within two and one half years,
every county in the State is organized, and receiving the benefits of
public instruction. The correspondence of the office has largely in-
creased, and averaged about three hundrea letters per month during
1868. It is a perplexing task to reply promptly to the various ques-
tions which come up from the small subdistricts over the State. Great
care, in many instances, must be exercised, in order to appease a whole
neighborhood, excited with a rancorous dispute, which, it is agreed,
can be settled by a decision from this department; and this corres-
pondence is not confined to one class, but extends to all grades of
school oflScers, directors, township boards, county clerks, county su-
perintendents and boards of education, organized under the "special
act." This species of official correspondence is multifarious and large,
but not much larger than that of a non-official character, proceeding
from citizens directly and personally interested in the welfare of the
"district school," a class of correspondence which is cheerfully and
promptly acknowledged, as it surely indicates the growth of the free
school system in the popular appreciation. Besides, thousands upon
6
thousands of circulars of instruction, laws and blanks for returns are
prepared and distributed through the successive lines of officers to
the seven or eight thousand directors, to be used in their work for the
purpose of securing systematic operation of the school law, and uni-
form reports to the General Assembly. It is necessary for you to hear
from every subdistrict in the State. It is a difficult problem to so- ar-
range a vast system of returns, as is required in Missouri, so that it
shall work smoothly and eifectively throughout all its parts, and so
that every school district shall be properly represented to you. I take
the liberty of assuring you that this work cannot be done successfully
until the people have confidence in the permanence of the laws, and
that they will not be disturbed every year. It deserves mention, also,
that when the returns are made from the one hundred and fourteen
counties of the State, they are generally in such a crude and imper-
fect state that about three months are consumed in correcting, con-
densing and tabulating them for the report annually required from
this office. You can easily conclude, how perplexing the work is of
finally arranging and correcting returns which, directly and indirect-
ly, come from the eight thousand directors, from about eighteen hun-
dred township boards, and from one hundred and fourteen county
clerks and county superintendents.
In the annual report of labors and observations, required of me, I
inciude the grateful work of visiting ^'teachers' institutes," education-
al meetings and conventions, where were met together hundreds of
citizens, to whom the interests of public schools were presented as of
chief importance. About thirty weeks have been employed by myself
and assistant, in attendance upon educational meetings, and, in that
time, less than one-half the State was visited, it being my design to
travel throughout the remaining portions the present year. One con-
clusion, from extensive observations, is, that nowhere on the conti-
nent is there more general and intelligent interest shown in the sub-
ject of popular education, than in this State, with some localities to be
excepted, but which cannot be mentioned without offense. As much
cordial pride is exhibited in the rapid development of our free school
system, as in the recounting of our material resources, or the repeti-
tion of our flaming military history.
Silently the work moves on. Gradually all opposition is dying
out Local political antagonism is giving way. The chief obstacles
yet to overcome, are the pride of wealth, which shrinks from the in-
discriminate society of the free school, and the pride of selfishness,
which grudges the small tribute which the law demands for the public
good.

TOWNSHIP SCHOOL FUND.
The township school fand of this State had its origin in a propo-
sition made by Congress to the convention, to determine on the for-
mation of a Oonstitation for the State. The proposition is as follows :
^^That section numbered sixteen, in every township, and when such
section has been sold, or otherwise disposed of, other lands equiva-
8
ent thereto, and as contigaoas as may be, shall be granted to the
State for the use of the inhabitants of such township, for the istse of
schools." This proposition was accepted, and the convention which
assembled at St. Louis on the 12th day of June, 1820, passed an ordi-
nance to this eifect, which was finally signed on the 19th of July fol-
lowing. Under this ordinance, and subsequent acts of Oongresst
there has been granted to this State for school purposes 1,199,139
acres of land, an amount had it been judiciously managed in each
township, would have laid a foundation for a school fund, the annual
income from which would constitute the schools free for at least six
mouths in the year. Section 1, article 6, of the Constitution of 1820,
conjLains the following provision: ^^Schools, and the means of educa-
tion shall forever be encouraged in this State, and the General As-
sembly shall take measures to preserve from waste or damage, such
lands as have been, or hereafter may be granted by the United States,
for the use of schools within each township in this State, and shall
apply the funds which may arise from such lands in strict conformity
to the object of the grant. One school, or more, shall be established
in each township as soon as practicable and necessary, where the poor
shall be taught gratis.''
Notwithstanding, the safeguards that have been thrown around the
munificent provisions of Congress for our public schools, by the people
in forming the Constitution, and of the acts of the Genend Assembly,
many of the townships have lost the entire fund, and others have
suffered greatly from the mismanagement of those who have bad
charge of this matter. It was early enacted that the county should
have charge of the township school fund belonging to each township,
and all subsequent legislation has placed this fund under the care of
the same guardianship, with the i)rovision that these moneys ^^shall
be sejured by a mortgage in fee on real estate, free from liens and
incumbrances within the county, of double the amount of the loan,
etc.'' Had these funds been invested in accordanoe with the above en-
actment, or in United States bonds as is further provided by law,
much more would have been saved to the school fund than is now
the case, yet, after all, the losses from unsafe investment and sales of
lands prematurely, the township school fund amounts in the ag^e-
gate to $1,911,922 39, with an annual income of nearly $200,000.
Many of the counties of the State have not yet disposed of the school
lands belonging to the townships, and as the lands in the State are
constantly and steadily increasing in value from the great flow of im-
migration, in a few years, these lands, if sold, will swell the township
funds to about $3,000,000, with an annual income of $300,000, an
amount greater by about $37,000, than was distributed last year to
,the counties of the State, from the income of the State school fund.
My attention has been called within the last year, to some irregu-
larities committed in some of the counties, indisposing of the income.
9
from the township school funds. In a few- of the counties, the county
courts have ordered that the school moneys be appropriated toward
defraying the expense of building a court-house, or in defraying ex-
penses entirely disconnected with school matters, and in other coun-
ties, the indebtedness to the school fund has been allowed to be paid
in county bonds, not bringing, in many instances, fifty cents on a dol-
lar. In this way, these moneys have been diyerted from their original
purpose, and the people living in such counties have great cause of
complaint County courts should be made to understand that while
they are the trustees of this fund, they have no right, either legal or
moral, to appropriate any part of this fund, to any other than school
purposes. If the law is not already sufScient to insure a right use of
these funds, and to compel a return of all that has been misapplied, I
would recommend that it be so amended, as to speedily reach those
who have thus presumed to pervert this sacred gift, or in any way im-
pair or diminish this rich inheritance, which our children and our
children's children have a right to demand, should descend to them
unimpaired.

AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE LANDS.
The act of Congress, approved July 3,1862, donated to the several
States, ten millions acres of public lands for the benefit of colleges of
agriculture and the mechanic arts. Of this amount, three hundred
and thirty thousand acres (330,000) were allotted to Missouri.
It is not my desi^ to dwell, in general terms, even upon either
the importance of this act, or the necessity of using our munificent
gift to the best advantage, for the object contemplated. The practi-
cal questions before this General Assembly are :
Ist. Shall a college of agriculture and the mechanic arts be estab-
Ushed as an independent institution, or_ in connection with the
State University at Columbia ?
2d. Is it better for this college, however established, that the
lands now selected and registered, be permitted to remain unsold for
the present, so that the increase of value on the available portions
may, when finally sold, be such, as to form an endowment, sufficient
to maintain the school generously. No small, or half-sufficient in-
come will answer. It must be ample and unfailing in order to sustain
a college of a character, such as the nature of our wants and the ca-
pacity of our commonwealth require — ^with the college of agriculture
is to be combined the department of the mechanic's arts, and if neces-
sary, that of literature— ^classical and modem. To meet the require-
ments of such an institution, with full scope for expansion, will re-
quire a large board of instruction, consisting of not less than sixteen
teachers — ^for the support of whom a large productive fund will be
absolutely necessary — to say nothing of the expenditures contingent
upon the supply of experimental apparatus.
On the 28th of November last, I addressed a circular to the
superintendents of the respective States, in which action has been
taken, looking to the establishment of a college, as contemplated in
tlie Congressional act of 1862. The following were the questions pro-
posed in the circular :
1. How much land was granted to your State to maintain a " col-
lege of agriculture and the mechanic arts, by act of Congress, July
2,1862?
2. How much fund has been realized, (or will be realized) from
the sale of the lands ?
3. Will the fund, so realized, be sufficient to support the institu-
tion, independent of State aid?
12
4. If established, is the college separate from any other institution
of learning ?
Replies from a number of the States have been received, a^ lol-
lows:
Massachosetts — Received three hundred and sixty thousand (360,-
000) acres of land, from which a fund of two hundred and thirty-6ii
thousand and three hundred and seven dollars ($236,307 00) was real-
ized, of the income of this fund, two-thirds will go to the agricultural
college, the other third to the Massachusetts Institute ot Technology.
The fund is not sufficient to support the college, without aid from the
State. The institution is separate, and located at Amherst, in the
neighborhood of Amherst college.
North Carolina — Has two hundred and seventy thousand acres
(270,000.) Nothing has, as yet, been realized. The scrip has been
sold, but under such circumstances that the trustees of the university
declined to receive the proceeds. If the act under which it was
sold is not invalidated, the university will realize $135,000. " By eo
means," is the emphatic reply to the third question. No decision
has yet been made, whether or not the college of agriculture shall be
attached to the State University. •
Nbw j£R8BT---Received two hundred and ten thousand acres,
from the sale of which a fund of one hundred and ten thousand dol-
lars ($110,0000,) was accumulated; but which is insufficient to main-
tain the college in a suitable manner, The institution is connected
with Rutger's College and Scientific School.
Indiana— Received three hundred and ninety thousand (390,000
acres, which have been sold for two hundred thousand dollars (S20C^
000), which is supposed to be much below the sum adequate to the
support of an independent school, if such should be established.
West Virchnia— Had a grant of one hundred and fifty thousand
acres (150,000), for which only eighty-five thousand dollar (§S5,O0C)
were received, an amount not quite sufficient to maintain the college.
It asks now for legislative aid. It is separate and distinct from any other
institution of learning.
Kansas— Congress granted to this State ninety thousand acres
(90,000). The endowment will amount to nearly three hundred and
sixty thousand dollars ($360,000), which, if judiciously managed, will
support the college. It is disconnected from any other institutioof
and located at Manhattan.
Minnesota — Received one hundred and twenty thousand acret,
from the sale of which a fund was established, amounting to six hun-
dred thousand dollars ($600,000). This income will be amply sufficient
to maintain the college, which is a department of the State University.
Michigan. — ^The agricultural college grant was two hundred and
forty thousand acres (240,000). The land has been recently put into
market ; but little, however, is yet sold. It is valued at two dollars
and fifty cents per acre ; but many are in favor of reducing the price*
18
ivliich may be done, so that from the sale of the lands, a fund will be
jeceived between four or five hundred thousand dollars. The lowest
amount will be ample for its design. The college is distinct and pros-
perouB, after eleven years of operation.
OoNNEGTidTJT — Received one hundred and eighty thousand acres of
J and (180,000), the representing which, was sold at seventy-five cents
per acre, yielding the sum of one hundred and thirty thousand dollars
($130,000). This sum is Invested in State bonds, at six per cent in-
terest, and affords an annual income of eight thousand one hundred
dollars (^,100). This income is not sufficient to support a school of
agriculture and mechanic arts, independent of State aid. The fund,
therefore, was placed in the hands of the commissioner of the school
fiind, who is required, by law, to pay over the interest, semi-annually,
to the presidjent and fellows of Yale College, who are to devote it
wholly and exclusively to the maintenance of certain courses of in-
struction, in that department of Yale OoUege, known a^ the ^^Sheffield
Scientific School."
Kentuckt — ^Located three hundred and thirty thousand acres of
land (330,000), which were sold at great sacrifice by an agent appointed
by the Legislature, and only fifty cents per acre realized ($165,000).
The Agricultural College is part of the State University. It is fully
organized, having two hundred students for the last two years.
Illinois — Received four hundred and eighty thousand acres. The
land is not yet all sold, but, at present, the sales have yielded over
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($250,192 60). The hope is ex-
pressed, by the president, that the whole amount, when finally in-
vested, will be ample to sustain the college without State aid. It is dis-
tinct from any other institution.
Ohio. — The whole amount of lands granted to this State, was six
hundred and twenty-nine thousand nine hundred and twenty acres
(629,920). It has all been sold for three hundred and forty-two thou-
sand four hundred and fifty dollars ($342,450 80). This sum has been
invested in six per cent stocks. The college has not been established,
nor any plan, concerning it, determined.
Wisconsin — Received two hundred and forty thousand acres (240,-
000). The fund, thus far realized, is only fourteen thousand four hun-
dred and eighty-eight dollars ($14,488 40) ; but the lands are selected,
and it is anticipated that a large fund will be accumulated, sufficient
to support the college, without further aid. The fund has been given
to the State University, an4 an agricultural department connected
therewith. Forty thousand dollars were given by the county con-
taining the university, with which an experimental farm was pur-
chased, adjoining the college grounds.
Pennsylvania— From a donation of seven hundred and eighty thou-
sand (780,000) acres of land, received four hundred and thirty-nine
thousand one hundred and eighty-six dollars ($439,186 80). The State
has also given some one hundred and fifty thousand doUarA (^iSOfiOO)
u
to the Agricultaral College, and, unless differently managed in the
future, the income from its present fund will not be sufficient to sup-
port it. The college is distinct from any other institution of learning.
Iowa — Received two hundred and forty thousand acres (240,000)l
The scrip was located within the State, by an agent, whom the trustees
appointed, and the lands have since been offered for sale or for lease.
The plan of leasing for ten years has been preferred. The lands se-
lected are valued at four hundred and eighty thousand dollars ($480,-
000). The Agricultural College is distinct from any other institution,
with a farm of 640 acres, and buildings, valaed at one hundred and
eleven thousand dollars ($111,000).
Martlakb — ^From the sale of two hundred and ten thousand acres
of land (210,000;, received but one hundred and five thousand dollars
($105,000). This amount was assigned to the agricultural college,
already in existence, yielding an income of six thousand dollais
($6,000). The Secretary of State adds that it is doubtful, as to the
competent support of the institution from this income, that the col-
lege is distinct from other schools. ^But the best agriculturists and
educators are dissatisfied. The prophecy is that the State will sink
$100,000, and then the college will go under. It cannot thrive as a
purely agricultural school.
New York— Received nine hundred and ninety thousand (990,000)
acres in scrip, valued at one million dollars ($1,000,000). The Legis-
lature, in 1865, devoted this national grant to the endowment of ^Oo^
nell University," at Ithaca. It is an institution combining the fea-
tures of general education, with a school of agriculture and the
mechanic arts. In 1824, the scientific school of Troy, afterward named
Rensellaer Institute, was opened. From this institute, for thirty
years, went out more State geologists, principals and assistant engi-
neers, practical chemists, naturalists, and scientific professors, than
from all the colleges in the Union for the same period. The school of
agriculture was unsuccessful.
OALiFORiaA — ^The share of this State amounts to one hundred and
fifty thousand acres of land. The proposition is favorably considered
of locating the "college of agriculture, mining and the mechanical
arts," at Oakland, and also, to make here the foundation of the State
University.
The national grant to Missouri was three hundred and thirty
thousand acres, which, on account of a portion having been selected
by the commissioners along the line of the South Pacific railroad, was
reduced to two hundred and eighty thousand acres (280,000). One
year ago, these lands were valued at three hundred and thirty-six
thousand dollars ($336,380). The Register of Lands, in a communica-
tion to me, of date, January 16, 1869, says, that "since February 5,
1868, 1 am safe in estimating an increase of twenty-five per cent in
the valuation of the lands along the line of the South Pacific railroad.

Two conclnsions force themselves upon us after a careful review
of the history of agricultural education in this country. First, that
the policy of establishing distinct colleges of agriculture was discour-
aged in. the eastern portions of the Union, but was followed generally
in the west Second, that as the failures of this class of institutions
-wslb chiefly owing to InsufGiGient support, the General Assembly
should not be in haste to add Missouri to the list of failures. Our lands
are rapidly improving in value, and must so continue, and; however
strong the inducements to sell them may be for the interest of immi-
gration, yet the vital interest of agricultural education, dictates the
contrary. I recommend that the lands be suffered to lie unsold for
the present, that legislation be had to protect such as are timbered
from injury. All experience testifies that it is unwise and unprofit-
able to authorize the establishment of such a school as is contem-
plated by the national grant, until the capital fund shall afford a cer-
tain income of at least thirty thousand dollars.
SCHOOLS FOR TEA-CHOERS.
NORMAL SCHOOLS.
The growth of ideas is slow. Those which tmd^rlie the institih
tions of our commonwealth have had development, through iDcessant
opposition. The maxims — which are spiritual powers — which regulate
legislation and determine the institutions of a community are few,
and take long time to impress themselves. We may be permitted to
call the idea of normal school as a State idea, the legitimate child of a
community which boasts its foundation upon popular intelUgence and
virtue. The round of connection between them is easily reached.
The prosperity of the commonwealth is proportionate to the aggregate
intelligence and virtue of the people, and owes to itself the duty of
providing for its prosperity. A thorough system of public instruction
is the best means ever devised for that end. All intelligent observers
concede the fact, and experience certifies it. Yet a system of public
instruction cannot be, from its character, thorough nor successful,
except as the teachers are thorough, well-trained and permanent^
that is, who seek the business of teaching for a life-business. Hence^
the necessity of the means by which they may signify their devotion
to the work, and by which they may be trained and prepared.
To any person, who thinks upon the relation of the teacher to the
pupil and the State, the necessity for their thorough preparation
becomes evident, and any remarks to that effect, it seems to me, are
unnecessary and unprofitable. Besides, while it is quite easy to de-
monstrate the material benefit and practicability of a railroad, it is not
so easy when we wish to show how these are produced by an imx>rove-
ment of popular education. It would then be requisite, to show how
difficult is the art of teaching, how much knowledge of mind and of
means are indispensable to a correct understanding and practice. It
would be necessary, to make exposure of how little is generally un-
derstood, concerning the branches of instruction prescribed in the
law, as to the best methods of teaching them. I pass it by as an un-
grateful task, and address myself to a discussion of the subject in
other relations. In April, of 1868, the Missouri Association of Teach-
ers met in St. Louis, and, after a discussion of the subject of normal
I
17
schools, adopted a report prepared by the committee for that purpose,
the substance of which is a summary of reasons^ for the necessity of
such schools. This document is contained in the reports of this
department, hitherto published, but is again presented in deference to
the wishes of that body, that their collective views upon the subject
may be known to you :
"1. There is an obvious distinction between the ability to ac-
quire knowledge and the ability to communicate it. Again, there is
difference in modes of communication. A man may be very learned,
and able, moreover, to express his knowledge in rigid, scientific
forms, while he is utterly unable to explain anything so that a child
can understand it; the teacher, however, must, above all, be able
to translate his knowledge into the form adapted to the youthful
mind. The normal school is the only school that professes to attempt
this art
^^2. The history of education is made a special object of investiga-
tion in the normal school. All past experience is thoroughly dis*
cussed, and the cause of success or failure set forth. It is seen that
eminent teachers, of all times, have lollowed, essentially, the same
method. It is further seen that this method involves the waking up
all the faculties to activity ; how to stimulate the mind to self-activity
in the proper manner; how to govern the school in accordance with
the spirit of our national idea,by training the pupil to self-government ;
how to avoid those evil customs that have rendered the name peda-
gogue odious from time immemorial; to teach these, constitutes the
business of a normal school.
^^3. The thorough indoctrination, in their true principles, of in-
struction, saves a long and unfortunate experience, unfortunate for the
scholars, who are practiced on for the teacher's benefit; unfortunate
for the teacher, who is forced to waste his time in groping about in
the dark for that knowledge of method which he might have acquired
at the normal school.
"4. The same sentiment that refuses to place confidence in the
uneducated lawyer or physician, should refuse to intrust the children
of the community to the care of the empiric, to serve as waste mate-
rial, upon which he experiments, while learning the art of teaching."
Since 1S35 (in which year the first normal school was established
in Prussia), they have rapidly increased throughout the enlightened
countries pt Europe. In 1839, the first normal school in the United
States was established in Massachusetts. The historical fact of the
establishment and multiplication of such schools would, of itself, be
of little interest to us. But there is one view of the fact which has a
philosophical aspect, like any other great fact in the economical laws
of human progress. It seems, wherever the demand for such institu-
tions became manifest, that it was recognized and supplied. It is not
probable that the governments of Europe would have adopted the
2 s R
18
policy of training teachers for the public instrnction, tinless they
clearly saw the reflex advantage to their safety, stability and dignity.
Leaving out any question as to the increase of happiness to the peo-
ple, as not generally supposed to weigh much in governmental insti-
tutions, we are at liberty to suppose that the normal school was con-
sidered an indispensable servant of the State. With us the first
question is the advancement and happiness of the people ; as these
are secured, so is the proportional security and dignity of the State;
and it is a maxim of statesmanship, that the imperative duty of the
peoples' representatives is to omit no policy, no institution, no e^ocial
plan, no law which the people may require and support. On this
ground, the necessity of the normal school may be placed. It does
minister to the stability of the State, the enlightenment and happi-
ness of the people. The best examples of such facts are admitted to
be those which have survived the period of their experiment; and,
having been tested by time and every rule which determines the
public utility of all plans, they become historical truths — counselors
through which the past speaks to the present.
Rev. Dr. Ryerson, of Canada, in an able report on the system and
state of public education in Europe and the United States, dwells
upon the manifest failure of the magnificent systems of public schools
to produce the results intended. There is, somewhere, a deficiency—
a continual barrier to the application of the benefits of the school
funds to their best advantage. The inference is that there may be a
complete school system, a vast machinery of schools, and yet num-
bers of youth not educated at all, and of those who attend the
schools, many learn very little, and that very imperfectly. Discuss-
ing the causes of imperfection in the American system, he attributes
it chiefly to the want of qualiXoationa of teachers. There cannot be
a good school, without a good teacher. There must, then, be provis-
ion against the employment of ill-qualified teachers, and for securing
good ones." The remedy proposed, is the establishment of a system
of normal schools, so complete that every rural district can be sup-
plied with a trained teacher. There is but slight advantage in niulti-
plying quotations from authorities as to the utility and necessity of
such institutions. If they are not self evident, then nothing is.
To be as brief and practical as possible. I propose the subjoined
plan of normal schools for consideration by the General Assembly —
believing it to be, in its main features, best adapted to this State :
Divide the State into six Normal DistrictSyeach one embracing the
number of counties as follows :
First Normal District — The counties of Atchison, Holt, Buchan-
an, Platte, Nodaway, Andrew, Worth, Gentry, DeEalb, Clinton, Clay
Harrison, Daviess, Caldwell, Ray, Mercer, Grundy, Livingston, and
Carroll.
19
Second Normal District — ^The counties of Putnam, Sullivan, Linn,
Chariton, Schuyler, Adair, Macon, Randolph, Scotland, Knox, Shelby
Monroe, Clark, Lewis, Marion, Ralls, and Pike,
Third Normal District — The counties of Howard, Boone, Moni-
teau, Cole, Audrain, Callaway, Osage, Montgomery, Gasconade, Lin-
coln, Warren, Franklin, St. Charles, and St. Louis.
Jt^ourth Normal District — The counties of Jackson^ Cass, Bates,
Lafayette, Johnson, Henry, St Clair, Saline, Pettis, Benton, Hickory,
Cooper, Morgan, Miller, and Camden.
Fifth Normal District — ^The counties of Vernon, Barton, Jasper,
Newton, McDonald, Cedar, Dade, Lawrence, Barry, Polk, Greene,
Christian, Stone, Taney, Dallas, Webster, Laclede, Wright, Douglas,
Ozark, Pulaski, Texas, and Howell.
Sixth Normal District — ^The counties of Maries, Phelps, Dent,
Shannon, Oregon, Crawford, Washington, Iron, Reynolds, Carter, Rip-
ley, Jefferson, St. Francois, Madison, Wayne, Butler, Ste. Genevieve,
Bollinger, Stoddard, Dunklin, Perry, Cape Girardeau, Scott, New Mad-
rid, Mississippi, and Pemiscot.
This division of the State into districts, is neither abitrary nor po-
litical, but is dictated by the experience of every state and country,
wherein a system of such schools is maintained. It is manifest that on^
school for the State is entirely insufficient ; else the excellent college
now in operation at the site of the State University, would supply all
necessity. The leading states in Europe and in this government have,,
after careful experiment, adopted the multiple system, instead of the
single school. Maine sustains two normal schools; Massachusetts,,
with an area of 7,800 square miles, and a population of 1,231,066, has
four; Rhode Island, with a population of 174,620, has one; Pennsyl-
vania, with a population of 2,906,115, has four; Wisconsin, with a pop-
ulation of 775,881, has two, (and preparations are being made to es-
tablish two more) ; New York has six, with more in process of com-
pletion ; Canada East, with a population of 1,111,566, has three. The
basis of this multiplicate system, is either the ntimber of school dis-
tricts, or the enumeration of educable youth, in a given area, usually^
an enumeration ot twenty-five or thirty thousand pupils, to each
school, to whom a force of three hundred and fifty, or four hundred
teachers may, in the course of time, be supplied annually. The reflex,
benefits of such a corps of well-trained teachers, upon the prosperity
of the State, is incalculable.
Whenever a Normal School is to he established in any District^.to-
be subject to th% following conditions^ vis:
(1.) The State Board of Education, together with the Governor
to be anthorized to receive bids for the location, of the school^ fromk
the counties in the respective districts.
20
(2.) In every case the county in wbiah a Normal School is loca-
ted to give a site, healthy and accessible; to erect a building capable
ot accommodating a number of pupil teachers, equal to the number
of districts in the Normal Di8trict\ to provide all needful furniture,
books, apparatus, etc.
(3.) When two or more counties compete for the location of the
8cho.)I, all the bids to be referred to the Senate, at its next session^
for final decision.
The State Board of Education consists of the Superintendent of
Public Schools, Secretary ol State, and the Attorney General, and
with the Governor, may bo constituted a permanent board of Com-
missioners, for the purpose indicated. Kemoved entirely by virtue
of their respective position, from local preferences, their action ought
to be disinterested, and for the welfare of the Commonwealth. Al-
though this is admitted, a sense of personal safety dictates the policy
of referring for final decision to the State Senate, whenever two or
more propositions are sent to the Board of Commissioners.
It should be distinctly stated in any law, recognizing this plan,
l^iat no proposal should be entertained for a building to cost less than
forty thousand dollars, with capacity for acccommodating at leasi
five hundred pupil teachers ; to be erected upon designs approved by
the board of commissioners; abundantly supplied with the requisite
furniture and apparatus, and easily accessible from the different por
tions of the district.
All Normal Schools to he subject as follows:
(1.) A Board of Directors, — one from each county in the Dis-
trict,— who shall be a body corporate, with the usual powers ; to make
all regulations necessary for the due protection of the property and
the welfare of the school ; to employ and dismiss all teachers, and de-
termine salaries, etc., and by means of an Executive GommitUey to
annually inspect and to report to the General Assembly the condition
of the school; to grant certificates of qualification to graduates,
which may entitle them to a diploma from the President of the State
Umversity.
(2.) To be exclusively for the training of teachers.
(3.) Tuition to be absolutely free.
(4.) To admit no person without a certificate of second grade
from the County Superintendent, of the county in which he or she is
resident
(5.) All graduates to teach at least two years in the" public
schools of the State.
(6.) To have a model school attached.
Relative to the Board of Directors, it is an open question whether
the custody of the schools herein contemplated, may not better be
confided to one Board of Regents, selected in the same manner as
21
the Curators of the State University, and composed of twelve mem-
bers, two from each district, with the State Board of Education Ex-
oflScio. The duties of superintending, inspecting, employing teachers,
conferring honors, etc., can easily be performed by one board for six
schools, and the only advantage of a separate Board of Directors for
each school, is that the expense attendant upon their duties, may be
borne by the counties composing the District.
It is suggested here, that graduates of these schools may be en-
titled to a diploma, from the President of the University, and with
special propriety, because the University is, and in its proper char-
acter, must become and be acknowledged, the crown of the public
school system, of which the normal school is an intermediate chain.
Besides it is presumed that the college of Normal Instruction at the
University, am^ly supported by the state, will afford a higher degree
of instruction, than it is profitable to offer in the other schools. It
should and doubtless will become a professional center, when the»art
and philosophy of education are presented in the highest degree of
culture, and established a grade above the normal schools, attract
such teacher from their classes, who desire to become fully accom-
plished.
It is certainly desirable, that such institutions, should be exclu-
sively used for the instruction of teachers. The testimony of other
states is, that where admission is allowed indiscriminately, the schools
become the instruments for the private advantage of the mana-
gers. If the General Assembly may determine to adopt this plan,
then the schools to be authorized, should be so amply provided for,
as to take away from instructors, the necessity of self-support, other-
wise the State will fail to gain the advantage expected and due. It
is also desirable, that all persons admitted, should have passed an ex-
amination before the County Superintendent, because the principal
design of a normal school, is not to give instruction ah initio^ to stu-
dents in the common school branches, but, rather to give attention
to methods of teaching these, and to whatever else pertains to the art
of teaching. Otherwise, the course of study must be greatly pro-
tracted, and the public schools needlessly deprived of teachers from
these institutions.
The State^ when the above conditions are complied with^
(1.) To pay $ annually, in quarterly installments, upon
order of the Treasurer of the Board of Directors.
(2) To authorize the State Board of Education to cause an in-
spection every year of the various schools, and to report thereof to the
General Assembly.
(3.) To require suflScient security from the Treasurers of the re-
spective Boards of Directors.

* In the plan here proposed, it is assumed that the State will take
upon itself no pecuniary responsibility, only so far as to control the
selection of boards of instruction, and to provide for their support.
No expense incurred in the erection of the buildings, the provision of
furniture and apparatus, the purchase and adornment of grounds, is
to be chargeable to the State treasury. Nothing but the support of
the board of instruction is to be assumed by the State. But I know,
herein lies the only objectior which can reasonably be urged against
the adoption of the proposed plan, and yet, the State can take upon
itself this further charge without any increase of taxation.
1. By virtue of the provisions of the acts of Congress March 2d,
1855, March 3d, 1857, and March 12th, 1860, the State of Missouri is en-
titled to indeninity for swamp lands sold and absorbed by land war-
rants since September 28, 1850. Where the lands have been entered
with land warrants the State receives other lands, and where sold for
cash, the money ir to be paid over to the State. It is ascertained, by
examination of the records oi the Land Office at Washington, that the
cash claim will amount to at least $250,000, and the land indemnity
to 100,000 acres. If the General Assembly will set apart thia indem-
nity as the nucleus of abnormal fund," the experiment of teachers'
schools will be at last successful, after sp many vain efforts. Or, if
this is thought to be impracticable, let the whole body of public lands
in the State yet unsold, if obtained from Congress, ordered for sale,
and fifty per cent, of the proceeds converted to the same fund ; and
in a short time there will be established a permanent and increasing
capital, the income of which will be sufficient to maintain the normal
schools.
2. If the act, based upon this plan, shall be passed, it is probable
that one school, at least, may be established during the next year;
and in order to provide for it, and at the same time give encourage-
ment to the further establishment of the schools, it is recommended
that an appropriation be made of five thousand dollars annually, from
the State treasury, for such school when established, in accordance
with the terms of the act. This is a small amount, but it is supposed
that it can be considerably increased from the proceeds of the insti-
tutions themselves. Besides the amount apportioned is now small,
because these schools will not be immediately established. We will
be more fortunate than other States, in which the policy of volunta-
ry building on the part of the people has been pursued, if one school
each year is begun, and at the time the sixth is decided upon, it is
certain that all of them can be maintained from the proceeds of the
-normal fund.
The chief argument for normal schools, proceeds from the posi-
tive and permanent benefit they bestow upon the best interests of
the State. If this is not manifest, without discussion, it cannot be
juade BO in a volume of discussion. The mind of the commonwealth
23
18 its highest and most enduring wealth, compared with its mountains
of ore and miles of railroads, are utterly insignificant. A State in-
habited and governed by the highest number of intelligent and vir-
tuous citizens, has the chief place in all the constellation. If then,
its republican institutions are not made perpetual, they cannot, by
any known means, be made perpetual. If then, the widest and deep-
est prosperity of the State be not secured, it cannot be made certain.
Aside from every other consideration, the State owes to itself the duty
of taking care, that its youthful citizens be made intelligent and vir-
tuous. Intelligent teachers, make intelligent pupils, and enforce the
precepts of virtue taught in the house; and to make teachers mielli-
genty in a complete sense^ is the work and object of the normal
sehooL
HISTORICAL SKETCH
OF
PDBLIC EDUCATION IN MISSOURI
"Some books," says Lord Bacon, "are to be tasted, some to be
swallowed, while others are to be chewed and digested." In the first
class must be included this sketch of public education in MissourL
At the best^ the taste is dry and dusty.
There are no rich juices in the government archives. The ma-
terial of historical merit must be taken out of the dust laid in the
sunlight and fumigated, before it can be offered to the discriminating
taste of your honorable body. But few persons, I am aware, will feel
interested in the subject presented, one taste will be sufficient for the
many. Notwithstanding this, the work requisite has been prosecuted
with pleasure. Volume after volume of dusty journals nave been
patiently examined, and the judgments and errors of our predecessors
carefully scrutinized* Whoever studies them will construct his own
philosophy upon them ; yet, he cannot be wrong who condenses the
past into one sentence: The struggle of libe7*ty and labor with sla-
very. The few who may read it in the time to come will feel some
interest in tracing the slow development of educational forces. I say,
in the time to (j(?m«, because, recollecting the hopeful words of Kepler,
"I can well afford to wait more than forty years for a reader, since this
subject has waited more than forty years for some one to give it
form."
"Religion, morality and knowledge being necessary to good gov-
ernment and the happiness of mankind, schools, and the means of
education, shall be encouraged and provided for from the public lands
ot the United States in the said territory, in such manner as Congress
may deem expedient."
We cannot conceive a more generous proclamation concerning
the dignity and character of government than is contained in the
above order of Congress. It is found in the organic act of 1812, by
which the territory of Missouri was erected from that of Louisiana,
and its temporary government organized. It was the manifest design
of Congress to endow the future States established within its terri-
tory with grants of public lands, so ample in domain, and so safely
secured from any Legislative proscriptions, that the means of educa-
tion should be provided without further local taxation, and offered to
:5
every child in the commonwealth. In pursuance of this desi^, the
act authorizing the people of Missouri territory to form a Constitution
and State government, containing, first of all others, the following
proposition : "Section numbered sixteen, in every township, and
when such township has been sold or otherwise disposed of, other
lands equivalent thereto, and as contiguous as may be, shall be granted
to the State for the use of the inhabitants of such township, for the
use of schools." If the prudent and liberal spirit of the general gov-
ernment had been properly appreciated, and this noble gift of land,
amounting to over 1,208,12<) acres of land, at the time the State was
established in 1820, as prudently and wisely husbanded, the public
schools might now be supported from the proceeds of the various
school funds, without the necessity of resort to private taxation. A
moderate estimate of the income which should be now available, is
$o46,476, an amount suflBcient to pay ninetv per cent, of the expen-
ditures necessary to maintain the public schools. The consequence
of the policy of the General Assembly in remitting the custody ot
this great trust to the courts of the respective counties, is a loss of
Aftyper cent, upon the honest valuation of the lands.
It is impossible for the most impartial judgment to find apology
for this destructive policy of the founders of our commonwealth. We
observe from their proceedings, that the utmost care was bestowed
upon all material and social interests, all that wise legislation could
do for the security of life and liberty, was done. The agricultural,
mechanical, and commercial interests of the commonwealth were fos-
tered and protected. Protection was granted to a ludicrous extent
against the possibility of invading any person's religious enjoyment,
but not a word was written in support of the right and privileges of
education. It was the only economical subject ignored throughout
the history of the territory.
During the interval from 1813 to 1820, the General Assembly of
the territory of Missouri met every year. Laws relating to rights and
measures, tq courts and practice at law, a full code of criminal jurispru-
dence, banks, elections, revenue, slaves, census, counties, and to other
canonical subjects were enacted, but during that same interval not
one act appears upon the pages of the statutes providing for the edu-
cation of the people.
It may seem absurd to charge either apathy or neglecb upon leg-
islative bodies so apparently insignificant as far as their representa-
tive capacity is concerned. The inhabited portion of the territory
was comparatively small, more properly, the population sparse, and
adventurers was scattered over a wide extent ot country. One coun-
ty included an area of about twenty thousand square miles. In 1813,
when the territory of Louisiana become that of Missouri, there were but
five counties erected and organized, but they were all except St. Louis
of enormous extent. The five counties then existent, were respect-
ively named St. Charles, St. Louis, Ste. Genevieve, Cape Girardeau,
and New Madrid.
The ^'seats of justice" have the same name as the counties, and in
addition to the honor of being the capital towns^ they represent also
the type of intelligence and the degree of social and religious ad-
vancement. With few exceptions, the customs and manners and
modes of living were of the most primitive character. The inhabi-
tants were chiefly descended from the French adventurers, who had
pushed their way from Canada and the interminable forests and
wastes of the vast southwest to the banks of Missouri. A hardy,
brave and adventurous race, as little careful of the material interests
26
of community, so long as the river and the vast forests tempted them
with abundant game, and prodigal of life, so long as the Indians, not
yet dispossessed of their titles, contested them with murderous perti-
nacity. Secure under the parapets of government posta, they lived
unconscious of the boundless wealth deposited throughout their am-
ple territory, and, so gradually emerged from the childhood of a pro-
tectorate to the maturity of a commonwealth in the United States.
The first General Assembly of the new territory, met in obedi-
ence to the order of Congress, on the first Monday in JDeceniber, ISli
in the town of St. Louis. The organic act provided that the number
of representatives in the assembly should be one for every five hun-
dred white male inhabitants, until the number increased to twenty-
five. It is reasonable to conclude,that the legislature was composed
ot twenty-one members.
The habits, character and enlightenment of a. people are aptlj
mirrored in their laws. The prevalent evils which afflict the general
community, the peculiarities of society exhibited iu all public and
private relations ; the interests which in gradual succession are de-
veloped in the growth of the people, the predominant opinion upon
matters of religious conscience, the recognition of perso;nal rights
and liberties, and their protection through the institute of justice and
equity, the average intelligence and culture of a community, may
all be more or less faithfully discovered in the laws sanctioned bv a
State. In the study of the laws passed by the General Assembly
above mentioned, it is no difficult task to discover the prevalent ideas,
opinions and intelligence of the constituency they represented. In
the fragmentary code they adopted, we find pre-eminence given to
the institution and practice of such courts of law as wpre best adapt-
ed to their state of society, particularly such as would prevent any
forcible entry into any of tneir land, tenements, or other possessions.
The proprietorship of land became an object of legal protection, and
the methods by which personal rights ana ownership should be main
tained, employed the most of their legislation. Security and peace
of communities it is presumed were constantly exposed to danger.
Those who may be anxious to know how the public virtues of fru-
gality in the expenditures were practiced in th^ purer days of the
Republic, may be gratified by a glance at the appropriations made
by the Oeneral Assembly of 1813.
''There shall be paid to Pierre Chouteau, for a room by him furn-
ished the Hnuse of Representatives, in December last, twelve dollarsL
To Charles Lauquenette, for two rooms furnished for the use of the
present General Assembly, the sum of ninety-six dollars. To Thomas
S. Roddick, for stationery furjiished the present General Assembly,
and House of Representatives, in December last, to be paid out of
the first money that may be in the treasury, the sum of thirty-nine
dollars and sevety-five cents.
"For printing the laws, passed at the present session, not exceeding
three hundred dollars. To Andrew Scott, the sum of two dollars
twelve and a half cents for articles furnished the present General
Assembly. To J. T. Garnieo for a blank-book, ink stand, ink powder,
and quills, five dollars and sixty five cents, and to Joseph^ Charless for
printing ^one for the Legislature, fifteen dollars."
As before remarked, all the interests which then pertained to the
welfare of community were encouraged and protected, except the
indispensable interest of popular education. Throughout the forma-
tive period, in which population oalled immigration, advanced from
27
the centers and military posts, pushing further and further the out-
posts of victorious civilization, we can distinctly trace the elements
and various business of society, developing in regular sequence, and
requiring according to their importance the shield of the law. By
degrees the front of the 3|oung community^ was extended wherever en-
terprise or self-interest Kd. New counties were carried out of the
original counties ; mile after mile of the dense forest were filled,
lengthening roads, connected the centers of trade with the previous
posts, hamlets and towns increased rapidly in population and extent.
Step by step, the first rulers of the soil gave way, the haunts of bar-
barism became the homes of civilization. Its strong hands broke the
veils of ancient night, as the case in the slow progress of any
people, whenever any interest became important or prominent, the
power of law was invoked to give to it stability and protection.
Withal, it is not a little remarkable, that no act appears upon the
territorial statute books, by which the general estimate of the im-
portant subject of education mi^ht be judged.
To conclude, however, that this subject was entirely ignored would
be erroneous. In 1808, an act to incorporate the Trustees of the Ste.
Genevieve Academy was passed.
The two notable provisions in the act are: "First, that an
institution for the education of females should be established by the
trustees, as soon as the funds of the academy will admit of it; and,
second, that the trustees shall cause, at all times, the French and
English languages to be taught in the said academy."
In 1817, an act was passed authorizing the commissioners of the
courthouse and jail of the county of Cape Girardeau, to convey a
certain quantity of land in the town of Jackson to commissioners for
the use of erecting a school house; and in the same year,
William Clark, William C. Carr, Tliomas H. Benton, Bernard Pratte,
Auguste Chouteau, Alexander McMair, and John P. Oabaune, were
incorporated a "^ board of trustees for superintending schools in the
the town of St. Louis." A liberal grant of rights and jurisdiction
was made to this board. The law was compact, but comprehensive
in general, and in some respects, has not been improved b^ late
legislation. In the same year, an act was passed, locating and mcor^
porating an acadamy at Potosi, Washington county. The preamble
of this institution informs us that the enterprising inhabitants of this
county had built, and :n part, finished two houses for the education
of youth, and to supplement such beneficent design, the Legislature,
^^at that session," gave the trustees authority to raise by lottery, four
thousand dollars. There were some peculiar provisions in this char-
ter; one of which made the payment of five dollars, a pre-requisite
to voters tor trustees by the academy. It was divided into what was
termed senior and junior branches, and in the junior branch, the first
principles of literature, with reading, writing, and arithmetic, as far
as the rule of three was to be taught.
The inquiry, naturally arises, why alone of all the primal laws,
which underlie republican government, the one of general free
education, was neglected or at least greatly depreciated. It could not
have been, because its importance was not considered, for it was
made prominent among the grand principles proposed by the organic
act of 1812, as the basis of a free commonwealth. It could not have
been for want of funds, because the income from general taxes largely
exceeded the frugal expenditures ot the territorial government.
Whatever view may be taken by those interested, two considera-
tions will force themselves upon us :
28
Ist. That from immigration especially the population of the Ter-
ritory had increased sixl^ thousand in 1820^ that the Territorial limite
were extended thousands of square miles during that interval, the
number of counties doubled, and the representation in the Qeneral
Assembly grown from seventeen to forty-one members.
2d. That the predominance of an e< c'esiasticism, whose genius
has always opposed a theory of public education, with absolute free-
dom from sectarian influence, and hence, the manifest preference for
an academy or seminary in every town, as soon as it had a legal ex-
istence, and gave promise of stability and growth.
In 1820, March 1st, an act of Congress was passed, to authorize
the people ol Missouri Territory to form a Constitution to admit the
new State into the Union and to prohibit slavery in certain territory.
At the time, there were sixteen counties erected and duly organized,
rapidly inceasing in population, and wealth. They were, as follows:
Howard, Cooper, Montgomery, Pike, Lincoln, St Louis, St. Charles^,
Franklin, Jefferson, Washington, Ste. Genevieve, Madison, Cape Gir-
ardeau, New Madrid, Wayne, and Lawrence. By the most careful
enumeration, we find there were sixty thousand inhabitants. The
geographical boundaries of the new State included an area of about
70,000 square miles. At first the metaliferous section of the State was
occupied not so much, perhaps, from inducements therein oflfered, as
from considerations of security from hostile Indians; but it is notable
that as soon as government treaties gave protection, the adventurous
immigrants pushed by the pioneer lodged in the fortresses of the
southeastern hills, and along the banks of the Mississippi, and crrasped
the fertile agricultural districts along the valleys of the Missouri.
This secured, and its exhaustless resources tested the question, as to
the establishment, of a commonwealth of imperial proportions was
forever answered. One of the basis of permanent structure for a
Government was laid at once: The other two, commerce and
manufactures, being later and slower in settling to their foundation.
As is well known in the history of this country, Missouri entered
upon its course as a State, in the wake of a profound agitation of sec-
tional antagonism. The power of free labor was effective only to pre-
vent the admission of this state except upon a compromise, which
was understood to be merely an armistice, during whicn to make
greater preparations. Unfortunately, the majority of the inhabitants
of the State, preferred to continue the system of slavery, which had
been fastened upon it by its pioneer settlers, and strengthened by
legislation, for many years. First, of all the states, a clause was in-
troduced in to the Constitution, which was adopted in 1820, prohibiting
the General Assembly from intermeddling with the subject of slavery,
except to provide a proper police for its defence. It is remarkable to
observe the unjust prominence, which was given to the species of
property, both in the organic act, and in subsequent legislation.
From the beginning, when by this decree of the people, the new
commonwealth took position with the slave states ; any other interest,
general and particular, was subordinated to its safety and prosperity.
On the nineteenth day of July, 1820, the convention concluded the la-
bor of forming a Constitution. David Barton signed it as President^
and it was submitted to the public, and promptly ratified. Congress
debated long and furiously, before recognition was' granted to the
pleading State, and finally gave admission under certain conditions.
Article sixth related to education, and was as follows : " Schools
and the means of education shall forever be encouraged in this State,
and the General Assembly shall take measures to preserve from
29
•
waete or damage, such lands as have been, or shall hereafter be
granted, by the tJnited States, for the use of schools, within in each
township in this State, and shall apply the funds which may aiise from
such. lands, in strict conformity to the object of the grant. One school
or more, shall be established in each township, as soon as practicable
and necessary, where the poor shall be taught gratis."
The second section of this article, was to the General Assembly,
to take proper measures for the improvement of lands granted by the
United States, for the support of a University. As the people adopted
the Coiisntution,itisfair to presume, that this article, engrafted in the
supreme law, is a fair index of the popular appreciation of free edu-
cation, at least of the large majority. If so, it affords a just point of
comparison, by which we may measure the great advance of public
opinion on this subject. From the least, it has grown to be the subject
of greatest significance. Every state government fosters and supports
a public school system, as indispensable to their dignity and stability,
nor could they be separated without self-destruction.
The public opinion of the State to-day, would reject instantly, as
harshly discriminative, the provision, "that a school should be establish-
ed in every township, where the poor should be educated gratis." The
munificent grant of lands was made by Congress for the free instruc-
tion of all, without limitation to any class, rich and poor, native and
foreign alike. It was made, because the education of all the people
is necessary to the welfare and permanency of the Republic and be-
cause this thing was stated with such noble emphasis in the act, by
which the territory of Missouri was organized. The true reason of
the appearance of this article, is to be lound in the Constitution of
1820. It is a subject of regret that the elevated and national ideas
concerning popular culture, which obtained, when the older states of
the Union were erected, were not imitated if not properly valued in
this first Constitution. Had a more prominentand intelligent view of
education been taken from the beginning, no doubt a better and
more extensive culture would have been attained. The General As-
sembly would have opened the way, immediately, to the voluntary
establishment by the people, as necessity, required a thorough system
of schools. The waste of school lands would have been prevented, and
the productive funds accruing from them better secured; higher
grades of intelligence would have succeeded liberal views of our re-
lations, domestic and national, have prevailed ; the material and
every economical interest would have been better maintained. On
the other hand, it is a subject of congratulation, that some recogni-
tion of popular education, in a prominent manner was made, and thai
it was approved by the large majority of the people. At least the
obligation was thus imposed upon the General Assembly, to comply
with the will of the people, by proper legislation. In what manner
this duty was performed, we proceed to examine, gleaning from the
meagre statute books, and journals, the only source of information,
everything having any historical importance. In November, 1820^
during the session of the first General Assembly of the State, thefirst
act was passed relating to the subject under investigation. It was an
act establishing an "Academy in the town of St. Charles, and an
Academy in the town of Franklin." This charter contains two ex-
traordinary provisions, one is, that the board of trustees shall take
into consideration and examine the state and situations of the grants,
and donations, which have been heretofore made, by an act ol the
Congress of the United States, of the thirteenth y day of June, one
30
thousand ei^ht hundred and twelve, and devise means for securing
the said town lot or lots, and such other lots and lands, as were by
the acts aforesaid, granted to the inhabitants of the town of St,
Charles, for the use of schools, and for putting them with such other
donations as may be hereafter made, for the purpose aforesaid, in a
state of profit to said institution. Ii, was also provided, that the trus-
tees should cause to be received and educated, in the said Academies,
orphans, and the children of such persons as may be unable to defray
the expenses of their education, who shall be taught the rudiments
of an English education, and the higher branches of literature, if the
said trustees shall think them worthy of the same, without fee or re-
ward.
We come now to the first act on record, relating to the custody of
school lands. It is the first acknowledgment of the grant trust im-
posed upon the Government by the Congress of the United States,
which was to be sacredly guarded and wisely improved, so that the
comprehensive design of the gift should be fully accomplished. Tak-
ing into account the effects and the policy resulting from this act, it
is the most important of the whole series passed at this session. The
question to determine was as to the safest and most profitable
method of disposing of the land grants, so that the maximum of se-
curity and productiveness might be attained, with the least possible
remove from the people who, were the immediate beneficiaries of the
grant. It may have been impossible to decide whether it was better
for the State Government, by means of proper officers, to take super-
vision of the lands, and the fund derived from their sale, faithfully
subserving the interests of the whole people, and annually distribut-
ing the income of the funds pqually throughout the State, or to trans-
fer them entirely to the care of the cdunty governments, and dele-
gating to themjthe sacred responsibilities involved in the sale of the
lands to the best advantage, and the proper security of the capital
arising therefrom. It is reasonable to decide, in questions of such
magnitude, that a trust is safe when guarded by self-interest. This
endowment, so munificent and grand, was, after all, for the sole bene-
fit of the people who were interested in its preservation, and who
surely would take care that their officers should act with reference to
the welfare of those to whom they were finally accountable for all
their official actions. It was decided, then, to delegate to the respect-
ive counties the whole charge of the Fchool lands, and to exact from
their trustees such guarantees of their fidelity that those interested
should be satisfied, were amply sufficient. Experience, however, in
this policy, as in all others, is the best testimony, and experience
proves that the General Assembly committed an irreparable injury
when it transferred the custody and responsibility of this vast trust to
the counties. Despite the utmost vigilance and faithfulnesss of
county officers, great losses have been incurred, and, in consequence,
the income from the fund so much reduced that the public school
system must be indefinitely dependent upon the bounty of the State
government. Not such was the design of Congress, nor the expect-
ation of those who laid the foundation of our commonwealth. The
grand conoeption was that of a system of schools, extending as popu-
lation extended, and maintained by the endowment of public lands,
which would increase in value with the advancing wealth of the State,
so that the supply from them should be always sufficient, always in
exact ratio to the demand.
The act alluded to was approved December 6, 1820, and orders
the courts of the several counties to appoint five respectable house-
81
holders^ commissioners of school lands, to serve for two years. It was
their duty to preserve from waste or damage all the school lands, to
rent or lease them for any term of years not exceeding five, and to in-
vest, with permanent security, the funds thus produced. They had
power to do whatever might become necessary, to eflFect the purpose
of Iheir appointment, as if the complete titles were vested in them,
^provided always^ that the said commissioners shall have no power
to sell or alienate said lands, or any part thereof." They had power
to recover damages to the extent of one thousand dollars, from any
person who committed any waste on any of the school lands. The
saving provision in the act was that which forbade any sale or alien-
ation of the school lands by the commissioners.
In December, 1822, an amendment to the above act was passed,
which made it the duty of the county courts to appoint *' two respect-
able householders" commissioners of school lands, in each iowns/iipj
who should possess all the powers, and be subject to all the restric-
tions, as the former five commissioners. In addition, however, they
were ordered to erect ''a sufficient school house for the benefit of ed-
ncation," in the township. This latter clause is the first recorded in-
stance in which the necessity for school houses was recognized, and
authority given to build them, although the authority is in evident per-
version of the object of township funds. In the same year the St.
Mary's Seminary was located in Perry county, at the request of the
inhabitants who gave a section of land for the support of such institu-
tion.
It should have been mentioned that in the month of Angust, 1820,
the first election for State and co irt officers was held, in pursuance of
an ordinance of the convention passed in July of the same year. It
was a part of my design to extract from the messages of the Governors,
successively, what is therein contained relative to the subject under
investigation. As a rule, they represent the true state of education
as to its general appreciation in the public opinion, the errors reme-
died, and the deficiencies to be supplied.
Alexander McNair was the first Governor of Missouri, but, unfor-
tunately, the official journals which contained his messages and the
proceedings of the First General Assembly, were destroyed by fir*^ fit
is supposed), and as yet have not been replaced by others.* The leg-
islation upon public schools was quite insignificant, as is evident from
subsequent acts and journals, and was occupied almost exclusively by
trivial special enactments concerning the school lands of various
counties.
In 1824 Frederick Bates was elected Governor, but died soon after
his inauguration. The Lieutenant Governor resigned, antl A. J. Wil-
liams, President ;t?ro tempore of the Senate, was vested with the pow-
er of Governor. On the 8th of December, 1825, he ordered an elec-
tion to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Governor Bates, and
on January 19, John Miller was declared duly elected Governor of
this State. The whole number of votes cast at that election, was five
thousand seven hundred and thirty- three (6,733). The whole popu-
lation of the State was nearly one hundred and twelve thousand
(112,000). On the 20th of January, 1826, Governor Miller took charge
of the executive office, in St. Charles, then the seat of government.
In his inaugural, he briefly admonished the Legislature of their vari-
*A manUBcript journal of the firat House of RepreBentativee was in the poBBession of Benjamin

ous duties (the Legislature, it may be well to mention, consisted of
forty-six representatives and fourteen senators). He says: *'Surround-
ed by the most powerful and warlike tribes of Indians, it becomes a
duty of the first importance to prepare at all times for defense. Xo
attempts should be made to discharge debts by legislation, or to in
terfere with the olyection of contracts, education, and the diffusion of
useful knowledge, the encouragement and improvement of agricul-
ture should receive the greatest attention.
It becomes necessarjr, at this time, to direct attention to the first
general act upon the subject of schools, andschoctl lands passed prob-
ably in 1824. It provided for the appointment of three respectable
householders in every township, who should be the commissioners of
school lands in their respective townships. Their duties and power3
were limited to leasing the lands, exacting guarantees for their pre
aervation, and paying over the rents to the county treasurer. Each
township was made a school district, and whenever the householders
of any school district, or two-thirds of them, wished their district to
be organized, they presented a petition to that effect to the "tribunal
transacting county business," and become incorporated as the inhabi-
tants of such school district, and were invested with the forms and
privileges usual to bodies "politic and corporate," together with the
power to lease these school lands, dispose and manage the school
funds, to hold property, real and personal, for the l^enefit of schools,
"and may do all other acts as natural persons." A board of trustees
was then appointed by the county "tribunal," consisting of five mem-
bers, and subsequently were elected on the first Mondav in September,
in each year. The active officers of this board were a clerk and a treas-
urer. The former was required to keep a journal of all the proceed-
ings of the board, and was the custodian of the records, bonds, leases,
accounts, securities, and papers belonging to the district. The treas-
urer received all the moneys due the district from the county, found
results, and profits of school lands, fines, penalties, forfeitures and
damages. The board of trustees, after proper organization, succeeded
to numerous rights and duties. They had power and authority to
loan moneys and lease real estate, to build or otherwise procure
school houses, to repair the same, to fix the places, and to procure
suitable sites for school houses, to subdivide their districts into or
many "school precincts" as were necessary, to appoint teachers and
visitors of schools, to make rules relative to the school houses. When-
ever the expenses attending on a school in any precinct' exceeded the
amount appropriated, the board of trustees, if petitioned by two-
thirds of the householders, levied and collected a tax proportibnablj
upon those having scholars to send to such school, ^^agreeable to the
number each shall send."
The "visitors" appointed by the trustees were nine in number
usually. They examined all instructors, superintended the instruc-
tion of the scholars, visited the schools once, at least, every three
months, and when there could "demand of the teachers such exer-
cises as they deemed necessary," to show the proficiency of the
scholars. No person was permitted to "k*^ep a common school" with-
out a previous examination and a certificate from the visitors. The
trustees, annually, determined what number of children should be
educated during the year free of expense, and to determine that the
"benefit of education" should be extended to all poor children equal-
ly. In all common schools the branches which should be taught were
reading, writing, arithmetic and the English grammar. All free white
S3
persons, twenty-one years of age, and honseholders, were entitled to
a vote for trustees. In this act the policy of transfeiyin.s: the charge
of the public lands to the county authorities is definitely recognized,
and practiced, a policy which has been successfully accepted without
question or protest from that time to the present. There is also ob-
served the first official organization for the purposes of a school act^
the first experiment beginning and ending with subordinate officers.
There was no system with dependent duties and responsibilities, but
a series of independent powers, accountable to no higher authority
than their own. The law also contains the gem of that species of
special tax, which afterward took the more offensive shape of the
"rate-bill system" in imitation of some of the New England States.
Returning to Governor Miller, and his first message of 1826, we
find him dissenting; from the plan of leasing the school lands, as det*
rimental to the interests they were designed to subserve, and he
" submits to the sound discretio/i of the Legislature, the propriety of
selling the lands as soon as practicable," and, after such injudicious
advice, adds, with magisterial pomp, the old truism : " Education is
the corner-stone of free and republican governments. Monarchies
are supported and defended by standing armies, while republics re-
pose upon the intelligence ana virtue oi the people. Hence it is the
peculiar duty of the latter to promote and diffuse the blessings of ed-
ucation throughout the whole body of it« citizens."
By an act of Congress, 1827, it was made the duty of the Presi-
dent of the United States, to cause to be selected, by sections, the
several townships of land heretofore secured by compact to this State
for the support of seminaries of learning. Accordingly, the Gover-
nor appointed Commissioners to select these lands, during that year^
and in his message of 1828, recommends the immediate sale of them,
in great trepidation, lest the retention of these lands for a few years
would encourage a system of proprietorship ruinous to the country.
^^ We also advise the sale of the twelve salt springs,with the six sections
adjacent, and the reduction of the proceeds into some safe and
profitable stock." This wise suggestion of the Governor was not
adopted, until eighteen hundred and thirty-one, when an act was
passed authorizing the sale of the salines, but it failed 'to direct the
investment of the proceeds in stock, for the '^ general diff'usion of
knowledge." During the interval between the year 1826 and 1835,
eight separate acts concerning school laws were approved, but none
of them is of special importance, except that of 1831, which provided
for the sale of the sixteenth section. An agent was appointed
by the 'tribunal of each county," who was empowered to sell the
sixteenth section, whenever three-fourths of the inhabitants of a
township desire to dispose of it. He sold at public auction, kept a
record of the sales made by him, secured the patent for the land fron^
the State authorities, loaned the money on the highest interest, nat
exceeding ten per centum. He gave securitv by mortgage on,
real estate for all sums over one hundred dollars, and in case he
failed to account properly lor all moneys received, he was removed
from office by the county court No order is given for the final dis-
position of the moneys received from the sale of the lands, the whole
responsibility beginning and ending with this irresponsible agent, re-
stricted only by a slender bond. Such a concession to the fidelity oi'
men, was becoming the golden age of which Ovid sung, but it is
scarcely consistent with the severe practices of modem legislatures^
by means of which the interes.t^ of the people are protected. As iw
8 8 B
84
consequence of snch a policy, examples are not nnfrequent of nnfor-
tunate commissioners praying for a release from the obligation of
their bonds to the State, because of losses incurred from worthless
leases and mortgages.
Daring the first administration of Governor Miller, beginning in
1826, no act concerning education was passed, except a few insignifi-
cant items, looking to the preservation of school lands from waste.
The statute books of two successive assemblies are silent on that
subject.
No means are accessible by which the experiment made by the
act of 1831, can be judged. We have evidence that the necessity
existed for school houses, teachers and a system of educational devel-
opment. Tiie evidence is furnished in the rapidly increasing popula-
tion, which swelled from sixty thousand, in 18:^0, to ninety-two thon-
sana eight hundred and one in 1828, and to one hundred and twelve
thousand and sixty-five, not including the enumeration of colored
Eersons. Of this number, there were fortv-three thousand of educa-
te age, which, equally distributed through the State, gave over thir-
teen hundred to each county, requiring, at least, a force of twenty -five
teachers. It is, therefore, apparent how insufficient were the means
of education.
The second administration of Governor Miller began in ISSO.
On the sixteenth of November, his message was transmitted to the
General Assembly. In that document, valuable for the larg:e amount
of contemporaneous history it contains, he reiterates his view£f of the
^^ importance of education," and especially enjoins the necessity of
disposing of the seminary lands, to found a ^' State College." " He
manifests impatience, because the General Government continued to
be such a large and arbitrary proprietor of lands in the State. In ac-
cordance with the suggestions of the message, authority was granted
for the sale of the seminarv lands. Registers and receivers were ap-
pointed by the act, with orders to sell the lands for not less than ten
dollars per acre« which were under the precipitate and iixjudicioos
action, of the Assembly, sacrificed. They should have realized nine-
ty-two thousand one hundred and sixty dollars ($92,160).
During the same session, academies at Fayette and Palmyra, a
college at Marion and Charlotte seminary were incorporated.
As might have been foreseen, the plan adopted of hastily dispos-
ing of school and seminary lands, for the purpose of dissolving
old proprietary rights of the State and National Government, without
regard to the interest of the cause they were given to subserve, failed
of success.
The Governor, in his message of 1832, informs the Assembly that
the law for the sale of the lands was but partially executed ; and that,
in consequence of representations made to him, ^that means were em-
ployed to prevent a fair and equitable sale,'' patents were withheld
until the Legislature could investigate the truth of the charges. He
recommends the consolidation of the saline and seminary lauds into
one fund, for the purpose ot education. ^ A more sacred application
of the funds, arising from the saline and seminary lands, could not be
made, than in their devotion to the cause of education."
How to invest such a fund, so as to combine safety and profit, was
a question of much solicitude to him ; but, finally, with fatal ingenu-
ity, suggests t^e establishment of a ^^ State bank," to which the State
might subseribe, at once, ^^$40,000 of the three per cent, fund, $63,000
from seminary and saline fdnd, and $189,000 of money arising from sale
85
of sixteenth section." '* Should snch a bank be established. I am in«
dined to think that the investment of these funds in it, mignt be ad«
Tan tageously made. It would, no doubt, place the college fund upon
a safe and firm foundation." Our Governor had a rare genius for
plausible theories, and abundant confidence in mankind. In the same
connection, attention is directed to the act passed at the last session
of the General Assembly, " by which commissioners were appointed
to sell the sixteenth section." Under this act, there may be as many
different commissioners, for making these sales and loans, as there are
counties in the State. It is too obvious to the understanding that this
system, if continued, must lead to great irregularities in the payment
of interest, and, in numerous instances, to the loss of the capital itself.
Inasmuch, as that act was passed upon the earnest suggestion of the
Governor, the effect of which was the destruction of a valuable por-
tion of our inheritance, it should have been apparent that his judg-
ment, upon any other project which concerned the management of
school funds, was of little consequence. To what extent his sugges-
tions modified the action of the Legislature, will be manifest here-
after.
At this time his official term closed, and he vacated the executive
claim in favor of Hon. Daniel Dunklin, who, in eighteen thousand
five hundred and twenty-five votes, received nine thousand one hun-
dred and twenty-five, and on November 22, 1832, sent into the Assem-
bly his first message, which contains a few brief generalities upon the
^^ diffusion and encouragement of education," a compend of which
would be but repetition of preceding quotations. At this session, an
act to "incorporate the St. iouis University," was passed, which was
described as the St Louis College, in "successful operation near the
city of St. Louis;" but now, as is well known, is an institution of the
first grade and magnitude within the city. No other act of importance
appears upon the pages of the journals or laws of that session of the
Assembly, the time of the members having been engrossed in a vast
amount of special legislation, in the erection of new counties, in an im-
peachment trial, debates upon the report to establish a State bank,
and upon current politics. From this remark there are a few excep-
tions, one, a bill providing for the sale of the sixteenth section, which
repeals a former act, requiring the purchase of the lands to be for
cash^ and expressly says that "sales of such lands, in the future, shall
be on a credit of one and two vears from the day of the sale," clearly
implying that the honesty of the purchaser was a safer guaranty for
the money than the official bond of the commissioner ; the other act
orders the continuance of the sale of the seminary lands. Mention,
also, should be made of an act establishing a corporation in the city
of St. Louis, for the purpose of public education, by virtue of which,
the election of a school board was transferred to the people, and a
large grant of power, with reference to school lands and lots, was made
to the board of directors. A joint resolution was voted, authorizing
the Governor of the State to appoint three suitable persons to form a
system of " common primary school education," as nearly uniform as
practicable, throughout the State, and to make report to the next
meeting of the Legislature," which is the first expression, on record,
lookinfi^ to a generad and practical system of public instruction. This
properly introduces the proceedings of 1834, and the message of Gov-
ernor Dunklin^ so far as it represents the prevalent opinion upon edu-
cation by the Stote. At that time, it should be understood, tne semi-
nary and saline funds were united into a university fund, which, by
86
prudent managemeDt, should amount to one hundred and forty-five
thousand, three hundred and forty-three dollars ($145,343). " We are
under strong obligations," says the Governor, " to establish a univer-
sity." In no country is it so pre-eminently important as it is in this,
to promote a general diffusion of knowledge. The will of tlie people
being the basis of our government, and the supreme law of the land,
render it of the first importance that they should qualify themselves
to discharge the duties they have assumed, in prescribing the rules of
government, and controlling its administration. K we uo not know
those rights and duties, secured and imposed by government, how can
we maintain and discharge them ? This spirit (patriotic) is wearing out
and unless it be assisted by general intelligence, that we may know
our rights and duties ; and the moral worth of the one, and the politi-
cal obligations imposed by the other, it will require no prophet to
foretell an end to our happy form of government." The proposition
is then made to dispose of the ^^sixteenth section" of land, amass the
product in a capital fund, invested under the supervision of the State
government, and, from the income therefrom derived, added to a small
sum to arise from taxation, to support a school in every township. The
advise is opportune, and might be called statesman-like, were it not
very much qualified by what follows: ''Our Constitution requires that
the poor be educated gratis."
IDoiiibtless, there will be some poor orphans in the State, and per-
haps now and then, children witn parents too indigent to educate
them. * * * That class, though small, must be provided for. Who
are the poor, within the meaning of the Constitution, may be deter-
mined by the county courts; by such rules as you may think proper
to prescribe ; and authority should be given to those tribunals to ed-
ucate such gratis. As the Constitution did not provide that the edu-
cation of the poor was to be made gratis by direct payment out of the
county treasuries, we conclude that the Governor, able and magnani-
mous in other respects, regarded the great endowment of Congress
as a tribute to the poverty; and not to the intelligence of the people:
an opinion which retarded the development of public education for
years. During the session of 1835, a general revision of the laws was
made. The laws relating to school and school lands, reported by the
special committee of them appointed by the Governor, was included
in the published volume. It is composed of fifty-two school sections,
twenty of which relate exclusively to the school lands. The act dif-
fers in several important features from all former acts, and in these
respects, is the result of experiehce. It provides that the county
courts shall be the custodians of all school funds, and abolishes the
office of township commissioner. The method of selling the lands and
the form of securities and payments, the place of deposit of all school
moneys, and the routine to be followed for applying it for the benefit
of the aistrict, do not differ materially from the plan now pursued.
Every congressional township composed one district, and fractional
townships entitled to less than one hundred acres was attached to an
adjacent township. The corporate powers and duties of a district
were vested in a board of three trustees, who were annually elected.
They had power to build school houses, to employ teachers, to appoint
visitors to ''keep up" a school for six monthsin theyear,or for a whole
year if desired by a majority of patrons, to levy a county tax of three
and one-third cents, if the citizens shall so order, to report annaally
to the county court the whole number of children in their district, be-
tween the ages of six and eighteen years, the number attending
school, the name of the teacher, amount of salary received; and the
37
■
branches of instruction taught. The county court in October every
second year, transmitted to the Secretary of State, an abstract of the
reports of trustees, and amount of permanent school fund with the
yearly income. The Governor, Auditor of Public Accounts, State
Treasurer, and Attorney General, constituied a board of commission-
ers for literary purposes." It was made the duty of the Secretary of
State to lay before this board the reports sent to him from the several
county courts, and the board was required to report to each General
Assembly all the defects discovered in the school law, and recom-
mend such amendments as would remedy these defects.
Such is a brief abstract of the school law of 1835, It is manifest
how the unadjusted items separately proposed in previous legislation
was being harmonized into a system with the broad base resting upon
the interests of the people. Time and experience have not suggested
any change in the original subdivision of school districts, but great
improvements have been made in the official management of school
aifairs, and the writing of school reports, and the responsibilities of
officers.
On the thirteenth of September, 1836, Governor Dunklin resigned,
and Lieutenant Governor Lilburn Boggs^ succeeded to the functions
of the executive. In his first message to the General Assembly of
1836, are some fiscal items which properly cpme within our purview.
During the two preceding administrations, a plan for legislating the
outstanding State debt, was adopted, which was to form the revenue
derived from the sale of the seminary and saline lands. The debt was
chiefly incurred by the remarkable financial policy inaugurated early
in our history (1821), of lending the public credit by means of "loan
offices." Bepacious and unscrupulous speculation thwarted the be-
nevolent design of the Legislature, and soon the State was immersed
in debt. In order to relieve the government from the pressure of in-
dividual claims, the General Assembly borrowed from the seminary
and saline funds, at different times, until in 1836, the amount due
these funds was $S7,819 90, not including interest, with the probabil-
ity of increasing that amount largely from the proceeds of the lands
then under sale. Had the State remained the debtor, as well as the
creator of the limd, thus accumulated, then the demands of honor and
conscience might have been satisfied, but as it is shown, hereafter the
policy of establishing a State bank, as authorized by the Constitution,
was strongly advocated by the leading public men in the government
with plausible arguments, and in the capital stock invested by the State
was to be included, the surplus revenue received from the general
government by act of Congress 1835, together with the seminary and
saline funds. This measure was prosecuted with force and ability by
Governor Boggs. On the topic in which we are directly interested,
he says : "education is a subject of abiding interest to the people, and
demands the fostering of the Legislature, * * * Notwithstanding
all acknowledge the importance of education, yet but little has been
done to advance the cause in our State. It therefore devolves on you
or the representatives of the whole people, to adopt and put in mo-
tion such a plan as will meet with their necessities." The Legisla-
ture of that session did not meet the necessities of the people with
respect to education, but amply met the prevalent demand of money-
ed enterprise, and instituted the "Bank of the State of Missouri,"
which controlled and determined imperiously the financial cred.t
of the State.
The government subscribes shares of one thousand dollars each,
S8
in amount equal to the principal and interest of the seminary and sa-
line funds, in addition to many thousands of dollars in bonds of the
State. It is not within our province to observe the career of this bank
and its branches, except to trace the educational funds intrusted to it,
and to examine in what manner the trust was protected and made
available. During the same session, twelve academies and two col-
leges, Kemper and St Charles, were incorporated.
On the 6th of February, 1837, an act to establish a permanent fund
for the support of common schools was passed. The Governor of the
State was required to invest the principal and interest of the saline
fund, with all additions that might be made to it, and the money to be
received from the United States by virtue of an act of Congress, June
23d, 1536. The investment was to be made in the stock of any bank
incorporated by the State, and whenever the capital amounted, to five
hundred thousand dollars, or more, the income was to be appropriated,
under the direction of the General Assembly, to the payment of
^^ teachers in common schools." Special acts concerning school lands
and academies were passed by this session, but, as legislation imme-
diately relating to the subject of public schools, increased largely, it
is thought best to transfer to another chapter all that concerns scnool
lands and private institutions.
In November, 1838, the Tenth General Assembly, composed of
ninety-six Representatives and thirtv-three Senators, met. In the
message of Governor Boggs, we find the expression of the general dis-
satisfaction with reference to the operation of the school law then in
iorce. The population had extended further and further ; new terri-
tory had been organized into counties; the new foundations of cities
and towns were laid; the elements of substantial society, as yet in-
choate, were gradually harmonizing; the demand for educational
facilities was heard, and the necessity become manifest for a system
which could be expanded to meet old as well as new demands, with-
out the necessity of amending the law for each new demand. Gover-
nor Boggs meets the demand fully and ably. He recommends, with
emphasis, the increase of the school fund, which was limited to five
hundred thousand dollars. Among the obstacles to the successful
operation of the school system, is tne incompetency of the teachers,
and advises the establishment of a seminary of learning, "with a de-
partment devoted to the education of teachers for common schools,"
and at the same time advises the education, at the public expense, in
the best seminaries in the State, of a limited number of young men
for the same purpose. With comprehensive foresight, he recommends
the outline of a "common school system," simple and easily under-
stood, although a modification of the system in practice in other States,
yet adjusted to the subordinate plan already begun in this State :
1. The appointment of a Superintendent of Common Schools, in-
vested with a superintending control over the whole system, and with
powers similar to those now intrusted to that oflSce.
2. The institution of a board of commissioners in each county, to
manage all affairs connected with schools and school funds, and to
report to the Superintendent the condition of district schools.
3. A board of trustees in each school district, with authority sim-
ilar to that before vested in that body.
When the funds necessary to support school were deficient, the
remainder should be raised by taxation, each district, before receiving
its apportionment of the school fund, being required to raise the sum
equal to double the amount apportioned to each district.
39
In accordance with the earnest and practical suggestions of the
message, a law for the organization and support of common schools
was passed at that session of the Legislature ^February, 1839), chiefly
through the instrumentality of Henry S. Gager. of 8t Louis. The act
is lon^ and minute in details, comprehending tne prominent features
ol all Taws upon the subject, but deficient in the esprit de ooty>8 which
is necessary to the operation of any law left almost entirely to the
people to put into execution. In reference to the State, it proyided
lor the establishment of a State school iund, the composition of which
has been heretofore mentioned. The Auditor of Public Accounts was
required to keep a register of common school lands, an abstract of all
sales of lands, and to superintend and manage the whole fund. The
State Treasurer was maae the custodian of the fund, and, witli the
Auditor, exhibited to the Legislature an exact account of all receipts
and expenditures. A Superintendent of Common Schools, who held
his ofSce for two years, was chosen by a joint yote of the Gfeneral As-
sembly. His duty was to apportion, annually, the State school mon-
eys, upon the enumeration of white children between the ages of six
and eighteen years. In other respects, his duties were nearly the
same as those now fulfilled by that officer, with the exception of tray-
eling and attending institutes. The Goyernor, Attorney General and
Superintendent x)f Common Schools were made ex-officio commission-
ers of the State school fund, coupled with the duty of securing the
most profitable inyestment for school moneys.
With reference to counties, county courts were inyested with au-
thority, to loan all moneys belonging to the yarious townships ; to
keep all accounts in relation to township funds ; to apportion the
Bchool moneys of the county (arising from fines, penalties and per-
fectiyes), amongst the townships. Respecting the method of security
oi school moneys, the liabilities of debtors, and of officers, there is
but little difference from that as prescribed in the law now in force.
The duties of the county clerk, are likewise similar to those now ful-
filled by that officer. The county treasurer receiyed and paid out on
the warrants oi the county courts, all school moneys irom the State or
the county.
With reference to townships, the primal organization not effected
as under the law of 1836, tne officers were, one commissioner of com-
mon schools, not less than two, nor more than four inspectors, and a
township clerk, and these constituted a board of directors. The direc-
tors had power to diyide the township into a conyenient number of
districts, to number them and to apportion the school monies named
by the commission. The commissioner was the treasuer of the town-
ship, receiying and paying out moneys as usual. The directors were
required to report the customary school statistics to the county clerk,
the commissioner to the township clerk; the township clerk was the
secretarjr of the trustees ; the inspectors examined and licensed all
teachers, yisited, and inquired into the condition of all common
schools.
With reference to districts, eyery school district was organized
bv a yote of the inhabitants, upon the order of the township directors.
Tne Qualified yoters of each school district filled all yacancies in the
board of trustees, determined the sites of school houses, leyied the
necessary tax on the district, ^^ not at any time to exceed fiity per cen-
tum on the amount of tax as imposed by la^ for State purposes." The
trustees were a corporate body, called special meetings, and made out
the tax list, proyided the houses and furnished them upon the order of
the trustees, employed and paid all teachers, made out a rate bill, ap-
40
pointed a collector for the district, who collected all the monies
reported to the township clerk all school statistics, atad in brief, were
invested with the control and superintendence of the districts.
With reference to town and villages, the lands and lots granted
by the United States to the several towns and villages, in the act of
Congress, Jnne 15, 1812, were to remain an inviolable common school
fund, for the support of common schools, in towns and villages. The
inhabitants of such towns and villages, were incorporated for school
purposes, the corporate powers being vested in a board of directors,
'*not less than five nor more than nine.'' The director had power to
hold, lease, sell and loan, the proceeds arising from the sale of lands,
under proper security, to build or rent houses, and furnish them, to
employ teachers, to make and collect a rate bill, and to do whatever
was required, for the eflBciency of schools, under their management.
The treasurer of the board was also collector, with powers and re-
sponsibilities, similar to the commissioner of common schools, under
tne general act. The trustees reported the general school statistics
to the county clerk, which latter reported to the superintendent of
common schools. A study of this law discovers its good and bad
features. In some respects the law now in force is quite similar to
the one under consideration. Its weakness is found in its complexity.
It« mechanism is heavy and involved. The perfection of any law
which rests for its execution permanently in the hands of the people,
is simplicity of detail, and such a distribution of responsibility, that
every office will perform its own duty, without clashing with that of
others, and without interference from others. ITiis law, too, is neces-
sarily complex, when it takes cognizance of school lands, and funds.
It is based upon the laws already in force upon that subject, and it is
unfortunate that the policy was not then adopted of releasing the
county courts and county treasurer, of all care concerning school
lands, and of transferring it to the State Government. It is also man-
ifest, that this act proceeded upon the erroneous idea of entrusting
school reports, and the superintendence of school affairs, to officers,
whose chief functions were entirely different. School affairs should
be entrusted to school officers. In accordrnce with its own provis-
ion, the General Assembly, on February 11, 1839, elected to the office
of Superintendent of Common Schools, Peter G. Glover, Esq., and at
the same time chose the first board of curators, for a State University.
The Legislature of '38-39, completed its labors so various and important,
by an act providing for a State University, thereby completing as far
as they were able, the chain of intercommunication from the district
school house to the temple of science, an act designed to be the no-
ble crown of the system of Fiee Education. The act included five
different articles. The first related exclusively to the creation and
management of the seminary fund, the income of which was for the
support of the university, when the principal should amount to one
hundred thousand dollars. The second article contains the account
of the institution of the university, the government of which was
vested in a board of curators, elected by the General Assembly, bi-
ennially. Their lease of rights and power were very little different
from that usually granted to boards of trustees, for college purposes.
Additional to this however, the curators were required to visit and in-
spect annually, all colleges, seminaries, and academies in the State,
which were subject to inspection. All colleges and seminaries ot the
university, and all other such institutionSj (not exempted by their
charter), incorporated, were subiect to this visit of inspection. The de-
sign of this provision seems to have been to place certain academies
41
and Beminaries under the tuition patronage of the university through
a visit of the curators, so that they might receive the benefit of one-
half the income of the seminary fund, made distributable by that
class of schools.
This apportionment was made in the ratio of the number of pupils
who, for six months during the year^ pursued classical studies, or the
"higher branches of English education." In order that there might
be no misunderstanding as to the exact intentof that provision, it was
ordered that no student must be considered classical "unless he shall
have advanced so far as to have read in Latin the first book of the
iEneid, not to have pursued the higher branches of English education
unless he shall have advanced beyond such knowledge of arithmetic,
English grammer, and geography, as is usually obtained in common
schools.'' The curators made an annual report to the Secretary of
State, giving a general view of the condition of education in the col-
leges, academies, and seminaries under their supervision. Authority
were given to the curators to appoint a President of the university,
and to fill all vacancies in the ofiSce of President of a college, princi-
pal of a seminary, lelt so for six months. They had no control over
the colleges of the university, which was governed by a separate
board of trustees. The trustees were incorporated with power simi-
lar in detail to those vested in trustees of colleges usually. The gov-
ernment of seminaries and academies, of the university was also vest-
ed in a board of trustees. The control of all affairs, the appointment
of principal, curators, teachers, tutors, and other officers ; the removal
of any officer, rules and regulations, the custody t)f property, were in-
vested in the board. These various boards transmitted, annually, to
the curators, particular statements of the condition and welfare of
their institutions. In the plan of this institution the proprietors
meant to build up a Studium Generate] to foster a familv of scholars
acknowledge one paternal authority which had neither local habita-
tion or name. The number of subordinate institutions was not limit-
ed, except by the visitation of the curators, which was a source of
weakness, since the whole capital of the seminary fund was nearly
one hundred thousand dollars. The design was magnanimous, but the
endowment fund requisite to make it effective was absurdly inade-
quate. The site of tne university was to be selected by a board of
commissioners, consisting of Peter H. Burnett, of Clay, Cnauncey Dark-
er, ot Lewis, Archibald Gamble, of St Louis, John G. Bryan, of Wash-
ington, and John S. Phelps, of Greene county. The site was to con-
tain at least forty acres of land, with two miles of the countv seat of
Cole, Cooper, Howard, Boone, Callaway or Saline county, 'the com-
missioners reported in favor of Boone county, and accordingly the
State University was therein located in 1840, by act of the eleventh
General Assembly, which met in November of that year. Governor
Boggs having sent in his last message containing an exhausted re-
sume of the public questions of the day. withdrew from thie Chair of
State, which was immediately occupied by Hon. Thomas Reynolds,
who was elected by a vote of 29,625 out 51,837, the whole number cast
at the general election of 1840. His inaugural oration is a summary
of political views, interspersed with generalities on patriotism and ed-
ucation gracefully expressed. It is chiefly occupied with the preva-
lent opinion of his party, as to the danger threatening State rights
from the constructive power of the Constitution. The General As-
sembly of that year was kept busy discussing the monetary interests
of the State to the exclusion of political and educational topics. The
State debt was to be adjusted ; the Bank of Missouri, it was supposed.
42
was being perverted rather to the purposes of private enter-
prise than used for the public weal, and legislation was had in the
vain attempt to control it. The seminary fund, augmented by the
dividends of the State bank, once the proceeds of land sales amount-
ed to $97,818 89, with 2,774 acres of land yet unsold. The State
school fund increased in the same manner to $558,032 09 in 1840, the
first year in which the income of the fund was distributable. The
number of inhabitants in the State, according to the report of Hon.
James Minor, the able and indefatigable Secretary of State, was 2Slr
249 white persons, with about 100,0W) of educable a^. It is a subject
of regret that no report on the subject of education was made, on
which account we are in total ignorance of the condition of the State
in that behalf. If proper care had been taken in its preparation, un-
doubtedly it would have remained a historical document of great
value. Everything in our view conspired to that effect. There was
no cessation to the remarkable development of the State* The rich
agricultural portions of the State were producing riches in abundance,
the internal and external trade was rapidly increasing, towns and
cities were established from one limit of the commonwealth to the
other, the frontier population was absorbed, and skilled labor and in-
telligent industry grasped imtnedtately the resources of wealth. The
shadows that sat upon the land disappeared with the pioneer. The
last haunt of barbarism was recovered for the use of civilization. Acad-
emies, seminaries colleges, and universities were founded and erected,
types of intelligent society, but no page is on record giving informa-
tion of the results of all educational enterprise. ^The common school
system" had been in operation one year, but to what extent, or how
successful we have no means of ascertaining. The only edacational
report made was one concerning the ^'deaf and dumb asylum," estab-
lished at Oarondelet, February 13, 1839. Two thousand dollars, each
year^ was ^ven toward the support of this institution in a certain pro-
portion. From the report it appears that two mutes were in attend-
ance, supported by the State. A report from the curators of the 6tate
University was referred to the Committee on Education, where it dis-
appeared forever from the public archives. We are free to suppose
that in consequence of the absence of an official report from tlie de-.
partment of education, the office of- Superintendent of Common
Schools' was transferred and attached to that of Secretary of State,
leaving intact the powers and duties of the office.
Passing to the proceedings of the twelfth General Assembly, we
meet at the threshold, a communication from Governor Reynolds
which recounts, in a brief summary, the "blessings'' bestowed by
"beneficent Providence'' upon the people, which is prefatory tea
doleful account of the "artificial causes" which'have plunged the State
into the midst of embarrassments, arising from inflated and irre-
deemable paper currency. He invites the attention of the Legisla-
ture to the act concerning the State University, advising such action
as would place that institution more directly under the control of the
State, and tdso would dispense with the organization and government
of colleges separate from the University. The seminary fund in this
year (1842) amounted to $100,000, invested in certiAcates of stock in
the Bank of Missouri, the State school fund increased to $575,667 9^
from the income of which $1,994 60 was apportioned to thirteen
counties. Very little legislation pertaining to public instruction was
passed during the present session, the committee on edupation forci>
bly protested against the mischievous practice of amending the
school laws just as the people began to understand its operation and
43
to appreciate its benefits, a protest which needs to be repeated to
every General Assembly. It seems, from the representation of the
committee, that the organization of common schools was rapidly
being accomplished throughout the State. We may, therefore, do
honor to the memory of that General Assembly, which, nothing to do,
did not. Shortly alter the adiournment, Governor Reynolds died by
self-violence, and Hon. M. M. Marmaduke, Lieutenant Governor,
assumed the functions of the executive, who, in his message to the
thirteenth Assembly, calls attention to the precarious condition of
the university and common schools. The dividend declared by the
State Bank had been gradually diminishing until they amounted to
scarcely one per centum upon the capital stock. There Was invested
the sum of one hundred thousand dollars for the benefit of the univer-
sity, and five hundred and seventy-five thousand six hundred and
ninety-six dollars, on account of the common school fund. In the
year 1843 and 1844 declared no dividend. It was evident that the
bank was enacting the role of Saturn, aiid devouring all its own pro-
geny. The State was reaping th^.result of lending its credit to a cor-
poration, whose interest it was to withdraw itself further and further
from State interference. The consequence of this action of the bank
was the almost total suspension of the university, and the retardation
of the common schools, dependent to some extent upon the income of
the State school iund. The Lieutenant Governor did not long enjoy
the privileges of this new ofi&ce, for on November 20, 1844, Hon. John
C Edwards succeeded him, having been elected by aTote of 36,978 in
a vote of 68,335, the whole number cast at the last quadrennial elec-
tion. ^'But of all subjects," says he, in his inaugural address^ ^^that of
education is the most important, the importance of the subject has
been overlooked. It should be in advance of all other subjects of
legislation. An universal diflfusion of knowledge is felt in every
ramification of society, it is felt in the workshops, in the corn fields,
on our roads, canals and navigable rivers, in our social intercourse, in
legislation, in morals, politics and religion. Its influence in facilita-
ting labor, in alleviating the distresses of mankind, in promoting
civiIi2ation, in improving the condition of the world is incalculable.^
An unusually liberal andexalted view of public instruction was taken
in this address, and the title of the poorest to the amelioration and
enjoyment of the richest culture was eloquently advocated. In his
ofiicial report, Hon. James L, Minor, ex-ot&jcio Superintendent of
Common Schools, presents the same complaints against the bad faith
of the State Bank, in withholding the dividends of the State school
fund, and urges the transfer of the stock to the bonds of the State, so
as to ^^render the income irom this source at once certain and perma-
nent He earnestly seconds the suggestion of Governor Edwards
in reference to the establishment of a normal schooL supported at
public expense, and for the public good. The increased organization
under the common school law was exhibited as follows :
In 1842, the number of children taught was 6,192, the number re- ^
ported between the a^es of six and eignteen years, 10,839. In 18^
organized common schools were supported in twenty-eight counties ;
in 1843, in forty-two counties, there being seventy-seven counties in
the State. It iB manifest to us, notwithstanding the views of the
secretary, that the cause of popular education moved forward with
discouraging slowness. Figures are keen as swords to cut rhetoric to
pieces. Considered in the light of history, of political and social
economy, it would be far more satisfactory to record that one hundred
thousand children were taught in the schools oi the State, than to
44
have, as we do have in the official messages, elaborate platitudes con-
cerning the diffasion of the blessings of education." What avail va*
it that wealth of soil and of mines were incalculable, that the skie?
were genial and the clouds *'drop fatness," or that under a g^arment oi
imperial richness, the commonwealth was hiding a cancer, which was
consuming its strength and vitality, if there were not developing, at
the same time, the intelligence to utilize the one, and the political
skill to destroy the other.
It is well to understand, before alluding to the condition of the
State University, that it was duly organized in 1848, by the election
of John H. Lathrop, of noble memory, as President. He was assistcJ
by professors in what was then known as Columbia College, used a^i
preparatory school. The University edifice was dedicated to its hiri
uses, on the Fourth of July, 1843, and in September following, tir
Curators completed the department of instruction. The edifice vlj
declared, by the board, to be equal to any building of that character
in the United States, over seventy-five thousand dollars having bee:
expended in its construction. Classes were regularly formed, «ii
young men were ready to graduate, the number of pupils was grad'i
ally increasing, and everything betokened prosperity. Bnt, at xu
juncture, the State Ban^ ceased to pay its proper aividends to tie
seminarv fund, and the doors of the University " were on the eve o:
being closed.'' The Legislature was called upon to aflFord the he!r
necessary to provide for this unexpected emergency, and authorize:
the Curators to borrow twelve thousand dollars ($12,000) from tht
Bank of Missouri, but took the precaution that the State should* no'
be liable for any loss that might occur to the seminary fund, if thi?
loan should be made. This was the extent to which the Generi
Assembly would grant assistance — considerate enough, perhaps, to
its own interests, but scarcely just to the institution which the sot-
ernment had pledged to foster, and whose fund, by its action, was dot
placed in seemingly hopeless insolvency. Except this act, the tweini:
Assembly closed its session, with no legislation upon the subject ::
education.
His Excellency, Governor Edwards, was much dissatisfied, anc.
in a very compact and forcible manner, makes a remarkable state-
ment: ** It is a fact, which it is needless to attempt to disguise, tha
with our rich soil and genial climate, and all our industry, care an^
economy, we are not a prosperous and thriving people. The grer
mass of us are not growing in wealth, nor accumulating many of tii:
comforts, nor even the necessaries of life.^ He attributes the fact r
ignorance, as applied to all departments of labor and industry. Wr
depend upon physical labor, and reject the superior advantages •
mental labor. We depend on brute force, and reject the advantaire:
of skill and science." The remedy to the disadvantages is by for
methods — encouraging the common school, increasing the interests
parents, establishing manufactures, improving roads, and navigab!^
streams. To establish an institution for the preparation of teacher
is the best mode for the encouragement of the common school. A
superior population is required to carry on manufactures successfoUr.
and this could soon be had, by fostering the common school. Th«
best means for facilitating the construction of public works, is to sen!
the schoolmaster into, every village and hamlet of the State. Tlie
common school will accomplish everything, if properly encouraged.*
The views of Governor Edward.s were those of a statesman, and ha:
they been properly valued, and embodied in legal forms, the historv
of our State would have been far more illustrious. The popular in-
45
telligence would have overthrown all methods of public wrong.
That the' diffusion of the influence of the free school, was making
slow progress in the State, we judge from many circumstances.
From the report of Hon. F. H. Martin, Secretary of State, we learn
that while common schools were slowly organized, yet its results
were insignificant. In his view the deficiency was the want of money.
The people were not yet willing to pay the necessary tax for the
maintenance of schools, and the sagacious Bank doled out a mere
pittance of dividends on the school fund, just sufficient to keep the
whole system in a state of starvation. The same evil, also, affected
the State University. The failure to receive the income from the
seminary fund, brought' debt and distress upon the Curators, which,
to some extent, were relieved in 1846, when the Bank resumed the
payment of semi-annual dividends. President Lathrop's report to
the Curators breathes a cheerful spirit, despite the numerous obsta-
cles so unexpectedly placed before him. He entered on the adminis-
tration of the institution with the knowledge that the pioneer in a
literary enterprise lives not for himself, but for posterity. He desired
to accomplish his full mission in the University, in laying broad and
deep the foundations of its prosperity, and then band over to his suc-
cessor the more pleasant task of erecting a beautiful and durable
superstructure. The model President afterward, ibund lions in his
path more terrible to meet than the moneyed embarrassments which
then beset him. He gave the ripe years of his life to the service of
the University, went away, returned again; and, dying, was laid
away under its shadows, when the roses of peace were blossoming in
the furrows of war.
At the beginning of the session of 1847, a request was made by
the Legislature, that the Governor would communicate to the mem-
bers his views concerning a school for the preparation of teachers.
In his reply, the Governor proposed, in detail, a plan which combined
the normal and the manual ideas in one institution. The pupil teach-
ers were to have a variety of improved machinery, witn which to
make experiments upon a farm (to belong to the school), was to be
supported at public expense: lectured to, and drilled daily in the
school room, and then were pledged to teach in the common schools
of the respective townships in which they lived, for two or three years.
A school for females was to be established, having the same object in
view, but combining with the instructionB in didactics, a system of
household manufactures. The Governor's utilitarian ideas perverted
his judgment on this question. His scheme was impracticable, although
we cannot but admire the shrewd philosophy which underlay his plan,
in which he desired to have teachers so trained that they .might im-
part to the children they might teach, new views concerning the dig-
nity of labor, and the economy of agriculture by machinenr, as com-
pared with it by forced labor. A much more practical and economi-
cal suggestion was made by the legislative committee sent to inspect
the condition of the University. Honorable James S. Rollins, chair-
man, with admirable prudence, recommended that a professorship of
theory and practice of teaching be added to the bdard of instruction,
for the support of wbich a small annual apnropriation should be made
from the income of the school fund, until the unwilling bank should
enable the curators to maintain it irom the proceeds of the seminary
fund. The Committee on Education, in a very elaborate report, en-
forced the same suggestion, and, in addition, proposed to confer the
office of Superintendent of Common Schools upon the ^* normal pro-
fessor." The social, moral, political and commercial advantages of
46
general edaoation are dilated npon with ability and force: ^ If ire
adopt a system of universal education, by means of common schools,
we will have better citizens, better laws, and more parity in the ad-
ministration of public affairs, our liberties would rest on asecorefonn*
dation, and commerce, manufactures, agriculture, arts, mechanics, and
the resources of the country would be improyed, and placed in a more
prosperous situation/'
At that time there were twenty thousand free white people in the
State, oyer the age of twenty-one, who coyld neither read nor write,
or one in every sixteen persons. In Missouri, with a population of
three hundred and twenty-five thousand, four hundred and sixty-two
(325,462), there were sixteen thousand, seven hundred and ei^^htr-
dight (16,788) scholars in primary scnools, and five hundred sac
twenty-six in the free schools. In Maine, with a population of five
hundred and one thousand seven hundred and ninety three (501J^.
there were one hundred and sixty-four thousand four hundred and
seventy-seven (164,477) at primary schools, and sixty thousand twc
hundred and twelve (60,212) in the free schools. Facts like these were
potent motives to action, and especially when the representatives ^
the people were reminded that they made an unwise investment whec
they placed the educational trust funds in the State bank, from whicii
a loss of $200,000 was incurred, upon reasonable calculation. There
was no recourse but for the State to assume the payment of the losi
It was also advised by the committee to change the basis of appor-
tionment, and place it upon the enumeration of children in the Suu
between the ages of six and eighteen years ; to create the office d
county superintendent; organize an educational court in each county,
composed of the county superintendent, county clerk, ex-officio treas-
urer, and the directors of each township, to possess the same powers
over the school fund as the county court, and to place the manace-
ment of school affairs in each township under three directors and i
clerk. The bill, embodying the well digested conclusions of the com-
mittee, was entombed in the House of Representatives, and the Lefir
lature contented itself with educational legislation, by passing th€
short acts looking toward the relief of the State University.
Time and space forbid any extended review of the educatioD^
movements through the twenty-eight years of our history which end-
ed with the administration of 1849. That the progress was slow is en
dent from the results given ; but substantial progress was made. Lav>
for the maintenance of public instruction were made with much care.
school funds were created and invested^ encouragement was given tc
the organization of the common school, m every hamlet and township;
a State University was founded, and its doors opened to the yoath of ifle
country; the feeling in favor of enlarging and rendering more usefo.
the system of free education was deepening and exhibiting itself on all
public occasions, and in all State papers; the belief that tne degree of
public welfare is proportionate to the amount of popular intelligence,
was generally entertained. Governor Edwards, in his videdictorr
message to the Fifteenth General Assembly, gives eloquent embodi-
ment to this feeling and belief, and takes leave of the chair of State,
pleading for enlightened and liberal legislation upon education for the
people.
At the general election in August, 1848, 82.885 votes were cast
out of which number Hon. Austin King received 4^915. The enu-
meration of the free white population, 510,4%, that of youths of legal
school age, was 144,835. The school funds, considered on October 1.
1848, of the seminary lund $100,000, on the ratio of forty cents to each
47
child; from which we conclude thiait there were 14,265 children re- '
ported from the different townships in the State, a ludicrous estimate,
when compared with the whole number of an edncable age in the
State; but a fact which discloses the weakness of the system which
had no channel of inter-communication from the State department,
except by means of the Secretary of State, who could not depart from
the regular duties of his ofSce to give the requisite attention to the
duties of the Superintendent of Common Schools. Conscious of that
fact, Secretary Martin strongly advises the restoration of that
office.
Qovernor Ein^, in his inaugural oration, advises the elevation of
the common school to the foremost place in the care and counsels of
the representatives of the people, ^^for it is emphatically the cause of
the people.'' The condition of the university was evidently improving
inasmuch as the indebtedness was provided for. The design of the
curators was not yet accomplished, nor the expectations of the people
realized, nor could they be until free education was offered within
the halls of the State University. The whole number of students in
attendance was sixty-three. The plan of ingrafting a normal depart-
ment upon the universitjr was again urged with commendable persis-
tency, and most convincing reasons, as is manifest in the act passed,
appropriating one thousand dollars per annum for the support of a
normal department, to the benefits of which one boy, between four-
teen and twenty years of age, to every representative, was entitled.
This department, however, was not established, the legislature having
ordered a reorganization of the board of curators, it was affected.
Among their first acts was their acceptance of President Lathrop's
resignation, and the election of Reverend James Shannon, of Ken-
tucky, as his successor. The board, with questionable propriety,
stated this, or was in consequence of a desire to fill the vacant presi-
dency, "with a man of known ability, learning and wide-spread celeb-
rity." They also reiused to elect a normal professor, as required by the
act of 1849. Qovernor King, speaking for the body of the people in
his message, deplores the timidity of the representatives who have
failed to give efficacy to the system of common schools by failing to
vote adequate means. He recommends the election oi State and
county superintendents, suitable provisions for district libraries, and
for the education of teachers. This inefficiency of the system of
schools was forcibly shown in the report of Secretary £ wing.
To maintain a population of school-age, amounting to one hun-
dred and fifty thousand seven hundred and fifty-one (150,751), he
apportioned $59,456 39 to each child. The preceding legislature
cnanged the basis of enumeration from six and eighteen years of age,
8o as to include all betwean the ages of five and twenty years, and
then, by inadvertance, re-enacted the law repealed. In addition to
this, by the same act, the sections of the law of 1845, urging reports to
be transmitted to the Secretary of State by subordinate officers, was
also repealed, so that there were two basis of enumeration, and school
reports were left to fly about in the winds, like wandering birds, with
no one authorized to receive them. The total amount of school lands
then in the State was 1,132,920 acres of which 581,883 acres had been
sold for $727,000, leaving 551,037 acres unsold. The income from the
fund realized from the lands sold was 72,700, which, added to the sums
received from rate bills (about $60,000), making in all $192,146, as the
amount available and expended in support of the whole system of
public instruction in Missouri. The General Assembly of 1850 and
1851 distinguished itself by establishing, upon a permanent basis, two
48
great educational charities: one, the institution for the blind, the
other, the asylum for the deaf and dumb. * The former was located in
St. Louis, and under the law then, was appropriated the sum of fifteen
thousand dollars, on condition that ten thousand dollars in addition
were paid toward its assistance by the citizens or courts of St, Louis.
The latter was located in Fulton, and was entitled to receive n«'t less
than eighty dollars per annum, for every person admitted to its
privileges.
It is also distinguished for the adoption of that policy of intern-!
improvements by lending the security of the State for the benefit of
the railroads. Fifty thousand dollars, in State bonds, were to be issueu
by order of the Governor (upon whose recommendation the act wai
passed), when he became satisfied that an equal amount had been
expended by the directors of the roads mentioned in the act. The
plan thus inaugurated was not without precedent in other parts of the
country nor can the honorable intent of the legislature be brough:
into question. But every citizen of Missouri, estimating the intents
by the results of the act so disasterous to the public credit, cannoi
but deeply regret that the plan was ever proposed and execated. 1:
is worthy of remark that the commonwealth in no instance, has U-
come security to any corporation without great loss of credit ani
money. From the first act of this nature a large indebt-edness wi?
incurred which consumed, annuallv, the surplus revenue of the Sia*c
accumulating with the increase of revenue. For that reason no ad
of generous relief to public education or charities could be passed bj
the Legislature, and unquestionably, the slow and insufficient advance
of public education to a certain extent is chargeable to the policy oi
assisting private corporations with the public credit
Where much was demanded for public improvements, little wa?
left for expending upon public education. The citizens, called up^n
for oppressive State taxes, did not cheerfully add to his burthen, by
voting additional taxfor school houses ; and, while these great natiocai
interests were beidg erected by aid of public funds, the greater in-
terests ot popular education, at once the head and heart of the coir.
monwealth, was left to languish in the university, half supported, an:
in the old log school house.
The report of the Curators of the University to the General As
sembly of 1852, was quite hopeful, in spite of local and financial di£*
culties, and " believes that in its onward and upward course, cheerec
by every lover of morality and learning, and guided by your wisdox.
it will shed no reflected li^ht, but, as the great living oracle of westert
literature, rank with the first institutions of the country." The com*
missioners of the Deaf and Dumb Asylum elected William D. Ker.
A. M., Superintendent (who has ably conducted the institution to the
present time), and reported an attendance of forty-one pupils. A*
the Institution for the Blind, there were fourteen pupils present durinz
the year.
How insignificant was the beginning of this noble charity, con-
pared with its present position, may be judged from the fact that the
whole household, the year previous, consisted of twelve persons, oc-
cupying a hired awelhng, just sufficient for their accommodation, k
1852, the Secretary of State distributed $58,411 among 193,884 children
of the proper school age. The experiment of thirteen years, with
existing system of common schools, had not been satisfactory to the
people. The; insufficiency was chargeable to the cumbersome ma-
chinery of the law. Each township, having its own board of inspec-
49
tors and examiners, instead of bein^ a part of a general system, was
practically separate and distinct, with all the evils of dissimilar stand-
ards and methods of instruction in the same coanty. There was no
head to the township organization, nor to the county, nor to the State
department. Acting upon the suggestion of this experience, the
Legislature, in 1853, revised and materially amended the existent
school law. The superintendency in the State was restored. A commis-
sioner for each county was appointed^ whose duties were those of
supervision without any control ; the districts were managed by a less
number of officers, who were subject to higher authority ; the school
funds were made more secure ; twenty-five per centum of the revenue
of the State was set apart for annual distribution as State school
moneys; higher qualifications were required of teachers; the routine
ot reports was simplified, and a more elastic tone and spirit was infused
into the whole system of common schools. At the same time, an effort
was made to rescue the seminary and State school funds from the grasp
of the powerful corporation, which held and controlled them, and, by
means of them, to a large extent, controlled the great cause confided
to their patronage.
In January, 1853, Hon. Sterling Price was duly inaugurated Gov-
ernor of Missouri, having received 46,494 on a total vote of 79,180.
One of his first acts was the appointment of John W. Henry, Esq.,
as Superintendent of Common Schools, who, in the brief time in which
he served, performed his duties faithfully and energetically. The
view, afforded us of the condition of the public school system, was
neither flattering to the humanitv of the citizens, nor to the intelli-
gence of the Legislature. " With regard to our district school houses,,
they are the old kind, ten by twelve log cabins, with one door in the
middle, and one oblongwindow extending from the door casing to the
corner of the house. Who has seen one, has seen the counterpart of
nine-tenths of the school houses in the State; low, dismal, dreary
things, in an open space to themselves, with missiles of every descrip-
tion scattered around them, even the view cause enough for the fever
and ague to the whole neignborhood. No humane master would cabin
his negroes in such noisome dens, and yet, with an inexplicable in*
fatuation, affectionate parents send their children there to sit and
sweat a whole summer day, to acquire habits ot neatness and order,
and a love of knowledge. The long summer days that I have sat in
such, upon a hard bench, with a back as straight as a corset, enjoying
not only the birds flitting about at liberty, in which was poetry, but
even the little pigs wallowing in their filth, are graven upon my mem-
ory as with sharp steel; and often, in this State, have I been reminded,
by the school houses, of those wretched days."
It is gratifying to him, as to all who have regard for the welfare
of humanity, to know that the era of the log school house passed
away with that of the negro cabin. Free education, in comfortable
school houses, comes with the era of free institutions. One is the
exponent of the other. There were, according to the official returns
of 1854, 233,327 children of a school age in the State, of which num-
ber 86,505 were uncomfortably stalled in the houses described by the
Superintendent; 152,722 were either without instruction, or taught in
private schools. Such a fact is sufficient testimony against the ineffi-
ciency of the whole common school establishment. So long as means
were inadequate to supply the children of the State with the benefit
of education, to that extent were those in authority derelict in their
4 s R
50
most sacred duty to the true prosperity of the State. Much better
provision was made for the care of the deaf and dumb and the blind.
At the asylum where the former were instructed and sheltered, there
were eighty-six pupils, and the Legislature appropriated six thousand
dollars for the support of teachers, and one hundred dollars each for
the maintenance of the pupils, while for the tuition expenses oi the
blind pupils (of whom there were twenty six in attendance), five
thousand dollars were appropriated (from 1855 to 1857).
The first attempt toward a system of reporting school statistics,
worthy of mention, was made by Hon. K. 0. Davis, in 1855. It was
impossible to secure prompt and accurate items the first year, and in
consequence the exhibit made by him does not possess the historical
significance they have since attained by a persistent prosecution of
his plan. With unusual vigor and elegance of style, the Superintend-
ent exalted the idea of public instruction among the rich ideas which
underlie our form of republican government, urged, with force and
plausibility, the establishment of a normal school, for reasons of
safety and economy, and the support of '• Teachers' Institutes" as
invaluable auxilaries to the common school teacher. The proposi-
tion for a normal department in the State University was again made.
The bill embodying the proposition was evidently incorporated, and
wisely rejected.
On January 5th, 1S57, Hon. Trusten Polk — who received 46,9!)3
votes, 115,200 the whole vote polled — assumed the high Affice of Gov-
ernor. The opinions he entertained concerning educauon he failed
to express in his inaugural address, but he left no doubt as to the lofiy
character of his patriotism. He congratulates the Assembly " that a
love of our cherished Union still pervades the bosoms of the people
of the entire republic. * * * That the patriotism of oar
true-hearted citizens, their attachment to our Oonstitution, their love
for that Union by which, as a nation, we have attained to unexampled
greatness and happiness, have triumphed over the fell spirit of sec-
tionalism and disunion."
At the beginning of this administration, the evidences of pros-
perity were numerous and gratifying, not so much when compared
with Illinois, which entered the Union about the same time witii Afii-
Bouri, but when compared with our own past. The population num-
bered 900,000 ; valuation of property had increased $120,049,010. The
great railroad projects were rapidly nearing completion. The native
wealth of the State, buried in the soiLand the hills, was yielding
itself up to skilled industry; the voice of the commonwealth had
great influence in the councils of the nation, and the fame of our
material resources had become national. In some respects, there was
improvement manifest in the spirit and effect of education. The
heavy machinery of law through which the government evolved its
benefits of money and influence, worked more efficiently. The com-
plaints of officers and patrons partially ceased. Unorganized por-
tions of the country were brought under the operation of the law.
Cities and towns, aided by a special act, were building school houses,
and otherwise providing for the facilities of public instruction. St.
Louis, rapidly increasing in population, in wealth, and in all other
metropolitan powers, had fostered a separate system of public schools,
which, with wise superintendence, discreet investment of funds, true
economy in building school houses, and with a thorough grade of in-
struction from the primary to the normal department, has advanced
to a degree of sufficiency and strength, unsurpassed in the United
States. In 1856, there were 8,123 pupils registered; the total receipts
61
and expenditures of money were $98,035 93. Within the two years,
during which notable improvements in many directions had been
made, the condition of the State University had, also, improved. Its
catalogue of students nutnbered 112. The lopal disturbance ceased
with the accession of W. W. Hudson to the Presidency, and the sup-
port of the faculty was secured by the income of the seminary fund
and tuition fees, which, together, amounted to about $29,000, from
1855 to J b56-7.
The Hon. W. B. Starke was elected Superintendent of Common
Schools in 1856. In his brief report to the Legislature, no informa-.
tion concerning the operation of the law, and the condition of public
education was given. With abrupt and singular impropriety, we are
told the number of organized children in the State, was 233,766,
while the number of unorganized children, was 26,507. This phrase-
ology, was something new, and might startle any interested in the
well being of humanity, if he were not acquainted with the terms of
the school law. The condition of so many children "unorganized,''
would greatly move his sensibilities. The prominent items of interest
sent to the department, are tabulated as follows :
No. of children between 5 and 20 years of age 297,303
No. of school houses, 2,454
No. of colleges T
N(K of academies 49
No. of teachers 2,829
Amount raised to build school houses $32,902 04
In 185S, there were reported to the department of Public Instruc-
tion, an enumeration of 341,121 children to whom was apportioned
the sum of $238,784 70. The total number of districts in the State was
-3,8 8 ; of school houses 2,671 ; of colleges 9 ; of academies 48 ; of teach-
ers 2,889 ; children of school age 302,126. The amount paid for teachers
wages was 379,815 88; number of acres ot unsold school lands 189,-
357. There were nearly 200,000 children in the State, who were re-
X)orted as non-attendants at school, a statement, which, if correct, re-
veals a lamentable deficiency on the part of school authorities and
patrons. Ihe solution of thisdiffioult problem in the opinion of the
^Superintendent is to be found in the want of normal schools, wherein
teachers might be instructed. Such a non-sequituv method of state
ment is un^atisfactory•
I'he true remedy was in a better and more easily applied system of
instruction, amply supported and capable of expansion, to meet the
demands of the times. In 1858, the State Treasurer invested $17,000
of proceeds from the sale of saline lands, in the bonds of the Paci^c K.R.
Company, and this added to the amount of the State School Fund, in
Bank of Missojiri, made a total, $592,667 96. That there was a gradual
iiuTease of the fund is evident from the statistics, but when compared
with the enormous assistance given to various internal improvements,
it is utterly insignificant. At the same time, that the nmd for the
maintenance of public education was slowly accumulating. The State
pledges, its securities, to the amount of $19,056,000, to railroads, with
65,8^4,000 additional, but repaid to them in 1858. The history of error
\\\ which Missouri is distinguished, was unprecedented, was concluded
ill the policy, by which a debt of so many dollars was suddenly im-
posed upon posterity. I pass by the first policy, by which a system
of domestic slavery was introduced, which produced its legitimate
results. The second error was in the authorization of loan offices, by
52
means of which the State was involved In debt of considerable mag-
nitude, while yet in its pupilage. The third error was in the estab-
lishment of the State Bank and its branches, a family of voracious
dependants, which constantly oppressed the beneficent hand which
fed them. The fourth error was the issuance of bonds to the railroad
corporations, with the plausible intent to assist the material develop-
ment of the country. The fifth error was the release of the custo.iv
of public lands, to the various counties of the State. It is manifesi
that a benevolent design underlay all these errors, which were suc-
cessively committed, during the short existence of the commoD-
wealth, but it is also manifest, that the State cannot enter conjointlr
with individual interests, without damage to its credit, and in the eni
financial embarrassment, if not ruin. It is not too much to say, th^i
the next twenty years will be employed in correcting the errors o:
the last twenty years of our history. No partnership in private <>-
terestSy ohouldoe the rule of future statesmanship inMissoari.
The view of education which Governor R. M. Stewart (in bii
message of 1858) presents is cheerful and hopeful: " The chief conie:
stone and crowning glory of our educational facilities is the State.'
In 1854, there were 1,546 school houses. In 1856, there were 2,673. In
1857, there 3,382. The number of teachers increased from 1780, in IS'l
to 4,397 in 1857. The amount of money raised by tax to build and repair
school buildin/i:s, was $30,487 05, in 1855 and 1857 the amount raise:
for the same purpose, was $130,236 85. Urgent cohsiderations were
{)roduced to induce the General Assembly, then in session, to estab-
ish a school of agriculture : but the proposition met with but littie
favor in the Legislature, altnough supported by a strong array of ar-
guments, and the testimony of sucessful experiments in other portici
of the Union. Engrossed with the subjects relating to railroads aci
banks, the public debt, and the condition of the material politics, n?
attention was given by the Legislature to the subject of popular e<in-
cation. A courteous reception was given to the usual annual reporu
from the respective State institutions, and every one seemed satisfied
that the university, the common schools, and the charitable schoo.
for the blind and the deaf and dumb, were prosperous and well ad-
ministered. The university, for the first time m its career, was sustain-
ed without personal sacrifice. The board of instruction consisted o:
ten teachers, with a catalogue of one hundred and eighty-seven ste-
dents. From January 8, 1857, to January 8, 1859, the receipts fror
bank dividends and other sources, amounted to $58,562 88. '• i am nci
aware,'' says Governor Stewart, in his valedictory message, " that anj
legislation affecting the universitv is necessary, and trust that thei^
may be none calculated to disturb tne course now marked out bv it^
present able board of curators."
The common school system was manifestly increasing in popula-
appreciation, as the following table will prove :

These figures furnish encouragement to every lover of educational
progress, although not indicative of much real advancement, bv
means of education, to whi^h access was not had by the Superintena-
ent of Common Schools, for at least one hundred thousand were
taught in private institutions.
On Friday, January ith, 1861, Governor Stewart tendered his offi-
cial farewell to the General Assembly, after presenting an earnest
an eloquent plea for the Union, and against the destructive doctrine
of secession. He depicts the terrible consequences of revolution.
**" all the social, industrial, commercial and educational interests, would
languish and die. The wheels of commerce would rest upon the rails,
the hammer upon the anvil, the plow in the furrows. Farms would
be untended, mercliants idle, mecnanics unemployed, our cities deso-
lated, as by a plague, and the country by a revolution.^' It is not
within tho scope of my design to dwell upon the general history of
Missouri, in the civil revolution, into which the guns of Fort Sumpter
precipitated the nation, but only to include it while tracing the action
and policy of the misguided loaders, then in authority, from the con-
sequences of which the educational progress of the State was stayed,
the money appropriated for the support of schools, unlawfully taken,
the system of popular instruction suppressed and well nigh crushed,
the little school house closed, and the teacher driven away by neces-
sity or violence, and the whole routine of school support and admin-
istration suspended.
On the same evening in joint session, 0. F. Jackson was inaugu-
rated as Governor of Missouri. His vote was 74,446, out of a total
vote of 156,579, and both in political opinion, and the relation of the
State to the general government, represented but a miiiority of his
fellow- citizens, there being then 540,280 white male inhabitants in the
State. His inaugural is a bold avowal of hostility to the Federal
«:ovemment, declaring *'that the honor, the interest, and the sympa-
thies of Missouri, determine her to stand with the South.'' With much
plausibility and subtlety, inducement are presented to persuade the
representatives of the people to act with the rebellious States, and
the astonishing spectacle was seen of the highest executive officer of
Missouri, wh6se lips had just repeated a solemn oath of fealty to the
constitutional government, general and State, in a few minutes there-
after justifying the destruction of both. On tne 16th of January. 1861,
the bill providing for a State Convention to determine the ruture
political relations of Missouri, was passed, but plainly declared that
no act, ordinance or resolution of the Convention should change the
rolations of the State to the General Government, until ratified by a
54
majority of the qualified voters. The Convention met at Jefferson
City on the 2Sth day of February, 1861, but in a few days afterward
adjourned to St. Louis. The secret enemies of the government were
grievously disappointed at the tone and loyal temper of the Conven-
tion. Every resolution passed was an expression of Unionism. One
offered by Judge Orr, said ''ours is the best government in the world
and we intend to preserve it,'' embodied the patiotism of the majority.
Every day in the hall of the Convention, scenes were enacted which
struck a pulse of fervid loyalty throughout thelieart of the common-
wealth. Sentiments of noble patriotism fell from the glowing lips of
the speakers, and among the scenes of ruin, faithfully predicted, was
the utter destruction of educational interests.
On Thursday, May 2, 1861, the Legislature assembled in special
session, called evidently to enact measures, and to organize the in>
strument by which the patriotic influence of the Convention might be
counteracted. Act after act authorizing the organization of military
companies were passed, but timid and hesitant the assembly failed to
meet the demands of the chief conspirators in the government until
the news of the surrender of Camp Jackson, on the 1 0th of May ac-
complished what the arts of treasonable officials failed to do. In a
few minutes the notorious "military bill" was passed — an act not only
extraordinary and unconstitutional, but conferring dictatorial powers
upon the Governor. A militia fund was created lor the purpose oi
arming and equippipg the militia. All the money in the treasury or
to be received from the proceeds of the special tax of one-tenth of
one per cent, on the hundred dollars levied by act of 1857, to secure
the completion of railroads, or from other sources, except the interest
due on revenue bonds ; the amount necessary to carry on the State
government, and the special appropriations for the benefit of the
State charities, were directed to be made a part of the militia foni
The Governor was authorized to borrow one million of dollars, the
several county clerks were ordered to levy an additional tax of fifteen
cents on every hundred dollars of taxable property. The Govenior
was authorized to buy all munitions of war, according to his own dis-
cretion, and whether he bought arms or not, nevertheless the Auditor
was required to drawn his warrant upon the order of the Governor
for the whole of the militia fund, whenever his Excellency should de-
sire it. But the singular iniquity of this act was consumated by a
section suspending until (1S6*^), the one-fourth of the revenue appro-
priated for the purpose of education.
A joint resolution forbade the Superintendent of Common Schools
to apportion the State school monies. This act was nearly fatal to the
interests of public education. This State subsidy was confidently ex-
pected by School officers, and their levies of special tax were made
with reference to it. As a consequence, the school houses were in-
evitably closed. The great artery was tied. A general demoraliza-
tion, on the part of subordinate officers, succeeded. They would not
act, and teachers could not venture to teach when their pay was un-
certain. The Legislature soon afterward adjourned, after doing what
was deemed necessary to put the whole State under the control of the
Governor, with all its resources of money, troops, and munitions of
war. Nothing now opposed the ripe plan of Governor Jackson, and
the prominent conspirators in the State capital and elsewhere A
single proclamation would call thousands of men to arms, and a single
order would place millions of dollars at his disposal. But, under favor
of Heaven, at this juncture General Harney and General Lyon inter-
posed the strong arm of the Federal Government^ and destroyed the
55
Slan. The Governor then issued his call lor soldiers: "Rise, then, and
rive out, ignominioosly, the invaders who Lave dared to desecrate
the soil which your labors have made fruitful, and which is conse-
crated by your homes." The indignant words were in vain ; they fell
like sparks upon the iron front of General Lyon's brave guards, who
advanced toward Jefferson City. The Governor and the other State
officers fled, three of whom afterward returned
From one extreme of the State to the other, troops were muster-
ing, and rapidly concentrated upon important points, to prevent any
stir of secession. General Lyon in St. Louis, Generals Hurlburt and
Pope in North Missouri, and General Sweeny in Southwest Missouri,
held the ^tate to the Union with a firm grasp. Battles for the posses-
sion of the Southwest were fought, in one of which General Lyon, the
flower of the Western army, was slain. It is scarcely credible, but it
is true, nevertheless, that fifty nine different battles and skirmishes
took place in Missouri, 1861.
In the midst of this disorganization, the State Convention met, on
the 22d day of July, in the City of Jefferson. Hamilton R. Gamble
was made Provisional Governor; the act apportioning twenty-five per
centum of the public revenue, annually, was revived, which, together
with other school moneys in the treasury, amounted to nearly $250,*
000, but which was lost to the schools by the unjust act of the last
Assembly.
On December 30th, 1862, a new General Assembly met, composed
chiefly ot men whose opinions were the exact opposite of those which
controlled the Assembly of 1860-61. There were many distinguished
for energy and ability, and they put themselves immediately to the
duty of remedying the evils introduced by the treasonable acts of the
last Assembly, and the fugitive Jackson. Governor Gamble, in his
message to this Assembly, says: "The embarrassments produced by
the rebellion have deeply affected the common schools of the State,
and it will remain for you to endeavor, in the midst of our present
financial difficulties, to devise some practicable scheme of restor-
ing our school system to its former successful operation."
The embarrassments were more serious when the Convention
had transferred the office of Superintendent of Common Schools to
the Secretary of State, and that of county commissioner to the
county clerk. In this year the school fund amounted to $578,967,
with $129,617 in the treasury subject to distribution. No apportion-
ment was made, however, in 1862, by the Superintendent ex-officio,
because not one-third of the counties had be^n reported to his office,
and scarcely any of them were reported correctly. "In consequence
ol the war, which has, with unparalleled ferocity, devastated our
State for the last twenty months, common school are prostrated and
broken up, colleges have been converted into hospitals, and school
houses into barracks ; school teachers have laid down the ferule, and
taken up the sword, and parents have sent their children to learn war
on the battle plains, instead of letters in the quiet groves of literature
and science."
The institution for the education of the blind was prosperous and
nntouched, amid the calamities of the civil war; but the State Univer-
sity was suspended during the session of 1861-62, and did not resume
operations until seven weeks after the usual time, 1862-63.
Located in a country subject to sudden and unexpected inya-
eions by armed bands of guerrillas, the interests of the institution
must necessarily suffer. Its doors were finally closed to students and
opened to soldiers, who occupied its ample hall for garrison and ho8>
56
pital purposes. It was re-opened in 1863, and now under the able ad-
ministration of D. Eeed, L.L. D., is rapidly re-assuming the position of
influence it held in former times of peace, maintained by a liberal en-
dowment fund, set apart by the General Assembly of 1866. A normal
department under the care of E. L. Bipley, as principal, has at last
been successfully established after many years of effort, and various
experiments in that direction. In March 1863, it was resolved by the
Assembly to suspend so much of the common school act as required
the superintendent to apportion the school moneys in April of each
year, because of the impossibility of making a fair and equitable ap-
portionment. This prohibition, however, was removed in 1864 by leg-
islative enactment, which required the ex-oMcio superintendent to
distribute the school moneys upon returns made to his office in 1860.
The amount distributed was $169,685. The same year witnessed a
partial reconstruction of the prostrate school system under the power
of an act of the General Assembly, giving special power to trustees
of the respective school districts, to levy a tax of one hundred and
fifty dollars for the payment of teachers' wages.
On January 2a, 1865, a new administration begun in the State
with the inauguration of Thomas 0. Fletcher^ as Governor, who re-
ceived 73,600 votes in a total of 104,664. In his salutatory oration to
the joint session, there is happily depicted the future of grand results
for the State, emancipated from the institution of slavery, and dedi-
icated by solemn decree to freedom. It was "henceforth to be the
asylum of all nationalities and races, and people: the repository of
wealth, and a theater for the development of the laoor and enterprise
of the nand and spirit of industry, and the home of free thoughts, free
speech, and a free press, where the prejudices of caste and class have
no leeral embodiment or political encouragement."
The restoration of the office of Superintendent of Common Schoob
was recommended as an independent office, and suitable care over
the educational system of the State, including an organization of the
university, was earnestly enforced, No returns were made from the
various counties to the Secretary of State, and hence, no information
of the condition of public schools was available, except that a gen-
eral suspension still existed over the State. The General Assembly
responded to the request of the Governor. The office of State Super-
intendent of Public Instruction was established, to which James L.
Robinson, Esq., was appointed. The school law was amended so as to
include within its benefits, the colored youth lately emancipated, dis-
loyal men were prohibited from acting as school omcers,'and all teach-
ers were required to instruct their pupils in the fundamental princi-
ples of the government.
In the meanwhile, a convention of the people elected under act j
of February 13, 1864, was in session in the city of St. Louis. The
present Constitution of the State is the product of their long session.
The article upon education is a specimen of noble and prescient states-
manship, liberal, just and comprehensive, and justly raises it to a co-
ordinate department of the State government, nor subordinate any
longer to the caprice of unfriendly legislation. The first section is a
fitting exponent of the remainder, "a general diffusion of knowledge
and intelligence being essential to the preservation of the rights and
liberties of the people, the General Assembly shall establish and
maintain free schools for the gratuitous instruction of all persons in
this State between the ages of five and twenty-one years.'^ At last,
after forty years experiment, with failure after failure, to establish the
true corner-stone of a substantial edifice, it was found in this supreme
67
provision, and its resting place discovered. The building is advan-
cing silently, without the noise of hammers, based upon the institu-
tions of freedom. This article, too, is the oright transformation oi
that condition in the provisional act , of 1802, by which Congress re-
leased the territory from its pupila/a:e, religion, morality and knowl-
edge being necessary to good government, and the happiness of man-
kind ; schools, and the means of education shall be encouraged and
provided for." The past thus speaks through the present. This idea
emerged with radiant growth, with the day spring of liberty, to the
land and all the inhabitants thereof.
We conclude this brief sketch here, expecting to resume it, when
the time shall be more fitting to recall the progress of free education
since 1865.

REPORTS OF COUiNTY SUPERINTENDENTS.
ADAIR. — R Mercer.
The educational progress in this county is good. Work done by
Superintendent forty-eight visits and six township meetings, making
in all fifty-four visits and ei^ht days' instruction. The normal school
has done a good work for this part of the country* The qualifications
of teachers will average seventy-five per cent.
Obstacles in the way of improvement are want of time, and the
blanks did not come in time.
The public schools have been kept open at least three months
during the year.
in 1 1 *
ANDREW.— H. P. ALBXA5DER*
There have been fifteen new school houses built in the county
during the year, making twenty-nine in two yearsj besides purchasing
the building for the Savannah public schools.
Most of the new houses are large, comfortable and conveniently
arranged, with good desks and sufficient blackboard surface ; but a
few of our directors appear to think they are conserving the interests
of their districts best by building as small a house with as little money
as possible. Some subdistricts that were managed thus, are already
tr}'ing to sell their small houses, that they may erect larger and more
convenient ones.
Our houses are all located on good sites, though generally
lurther from the more traveled roads, I think, than is necessary.
Most of our new houses are well seated, and some of the old ones
have been re-seated with the latest improved desks.
A few subdistricts have apparatus, and the subject is being gen-
erally discussed throughout the county.
Teachers, generally good, most of the " fogies" having lett the
county or quit the profession, though, like in every hive, a few drones
remain, who will neither leave the profession nor attend the institute^
that they may see their inadequacy.
We hold two sessions of the county institute, annually, of five
days each.
The colored people have the same advantages that the whites
have, in schools of the same grade.
There are four private schools in the county, two of which are run
by small minority parties, who are opposed to public schools, or
oould not have them conducted to suit their tastes.
64
There is a school at Fillmore under the control of the conference
of the Methodist church. I have not visited it, but, from reputation,
believe it to be one of the best of that class of schools.
Would like to have some provisions made to sustain connty insti-
tutes, and to have normal schools established and put in operation in
different parts of the State.
The county snperintendency should be made a sustaining ofSce oi
itself.
AUDRAIN.— M, M. Holmes,
In a few subdistricts considerable interest is manifested, and the
schools are in a prosperous condition. This interest is shown in the
employment of capable teachers, the continuance of school beyond
the four months, and the purchase of suitable apparatus. The school
houses built are better, and more attention has been paid to the site
than formerly. Some improved furniture, from the manufactory of
the W. P. & S. F. Co., of St. Louis, has, also, been introduced.
The limited time allowed the county superintendent, has made i(
impossible to accomplish much.
Two teachers' institutes have been held, with interest and profit
to the members.
There are a few first-class teachers in the county. The mjyoritv.
however, have had no special training for the work. A few have
been granted certificates, more to enable all the subdistricts to have
a school, than of the fitness of the applicant.
A system of " free normal schools " is certainly needed and de-
manded by the best interests of public education. The plan propose:
by the State Superintendent is, undoubtedly, well a4apted to the pur-
pose.
BATES.— D. A. McGaughey.
In compliance with the school law of Missouri, as well as with the
custom in our State, I address you this, my third annual statement o:
our school matters, in this county, and as is the practice of some of
our county superintendents, and as I have done heretofore, 1 shall be
practical, and as brief as possible.
Two years ago, when 1 was elected to the office of county super
intendent of public schools, of this county, we had but two or thre«
school houses in the county, and they were 'very indifferent houses,
and about one-half oi our county unorganized. To-day, on almost
every hilltop may be seen a bright new school house, and every sec>
tion of land in the county is in some organized district
This has been accomplished by a constant and determined effort
on the part of the superintendent, that the public school system of
Missouri should be a success in this county, and this has been done
at the expense and threats of a few pettifoggers ; that they would or
could destroy our school tax in the different townships, that was levied
to accomplish this object. These were akin and very similar to the
threats of our rebels in this state, and came from the same kind of a
spirit and desire that actuated them.
6&
Oar school houses are most all new, and are built with some taste,
and are being moderately well provided with furniture, in the way of
desks and black boards, etc. Our school grounds consist of about
one acre of ground to each school house. Very few of our school
houses are yet inclosed. Our teachers are rather more than an aver-
age class of teachers, most of them have been engaged in the pro*
fession of teaching, in the eastern states, and come with first-class
certificates from those states.
When I first came to the county, I was shown the spot where the
first rebel camp was made, and the place where the first rebel flag
was raised in this county. During the past summer while visiting the
schools in this county, in my official capacity, I found a new school
house located in the very same spot, with a house lull of bright boys
aud girls.
Our examinations have been private, or whenever the candidates
presented themselves. We have had no public examinations. We
nave not yet organised a teachers' institute in this county ; there will
be one organized as soon as we have a suitable room to meet in.
Our school officers are doing their duty as well as they know how,
under the law, and we have no reason to complain on that score. The
trouble is with our school law, it is so complicated, that it is almost
impossible for all to understand it alike. There is not that connection
between the township boards of education, clerks and superintend-
ents, there shouH be. Our people are generally interested in keep-
ing up good schools, and I thins the day is not very distant, when
Bates county, with its splendid school fund of nearly $100,000, wiU
become famous for ita good schools*
BOLLINGER.— S. A. Oallvkrt.
9
Relative to the educational progress of my county, allow m© to
say, that in December, 1868, when I took charge of the office of county
superintendent of schools for this county, through the perseverance
of my esteemed predecessor, the school townships and subdistricta had
been organized with that care and seemingly correctness, there appear-
ed nothing before me but Watchfulness, in order to keep the wheel re-
volving. But before long, in many of the subdistricts, the directors
became convinced, by their own reasoning, they were, or should be,
the ruling power of their respective school townships, and if their
modes of teaching, and their version of the law, were not adopted,
the organizations so wisely and carefully constituted, should speedily
perish. Township clerks, and boards of education, stubbornly refused
to act upon plain principles of law. Quarrels and dissensions ensued ;
ousting, resignations and refusals to serve, seemed to be the order of
the day, until their organization, in fact, were well nigh destroyed.—
Now, how was this evu to be remedied? Who was to act in a manner
to efifectually destroy this bitter feeling, and dispose of those disturb-
ers of our schools? Had the Legislatiure in its supposed wisdom, de- .
vised any means in the hands of those who have, by virtue of their
office, control of the schools of the county, whereby refractory clerks
or boards of education, or even subdirectors could be made subser-
vient to the law.
I am aware that the law makes it the duty of the county^Bupe^*
8 B
66
tendent, to confer T^ith and instrnct township boards, sobdirectors.
&c. But what would a superintendent do, when a board, or its clerk,
would not receive the opinion of the Attorney General of the State,
in rebuttal of his own views of the law, and to sustain the good order
of the township. As was done in this county, what resources haTe
the Legislature placed at the disposal of and to sustain himself in
such a dilemma? He has none.
It was not for two months that this difficulty became quieted, and
{>eace and harmony reigned throughout these several townships. Yet
or all this, the new scnool law cannot claim any favor for alleviatinf
these disturbances; but on the other hand, we may look for more and
greater dissensions. For this reason, many townships are without their
proper funds, by the failure of their clerk to give bond, that he misrlir
collect the assessment return. In some one or two instances, in mj
county, townships failed to find collectors, (clerks), who would take
the responsibility, or were competent to act in that capacity.
Who is to blame for this i the people? No, the law.
And another great difficulty : We will say that A has lands in
every township in the county; ne must needs take from three to fire
days, and ride many miles, to pay a small school tax; if he fails to ap-
pear, or has no notice of the time and places of paying these taxes, he
must pay a penalty for his ignorance — a penalty assessed against hin
by the Legislature, and put into the hands of an agent to execute, not
''by due process of law," or a "judgment of his peers," or the law of
the land (sections 19 and 20): ''It is the duty of parties assessed witb
school tax, to pay to the township clerk the sum thus due, on or before
the first day of September following; and it shall be the duty of s^ad
clerk to make out a list of taxes delinquent, on the first day of Sep-
tember, and return the same to the collector of the county," etc We
find either that it was intended for the clerk to deliver th^is list to the
collector "on the first day of September following," or that there was
no time specified when the clerk was required to deliver the same;
and if the latter be the case^ as we must so construe the law, and the
clerk failed to deliver this list for many days, or even months, and thi?
man A came in to the collector of the county, in the interim^ to p:*^
his tax, and finds nothing in that office, who is to suffer ? A and tk
school township ? '
I think a correction in this law could be safely made, with grei:
justice to the people. I do think the collection or the school monej. i
which, by the way, is small enough, is distributed among too manj "
officers to make it profitable to any, and those depending upon tb^
collection of the same ; our taxes are not of such great sums, or so dif-
ficult to collect, but what one man might do it all, without making
every man a collector — leaving none to pay. Many of our townshi:?
are without funds, from such failures, and the refusal of the counrj
collector to receive these lists after the first of September, as the law
does not specify when these lists shall be presented to him.
I have, during my official term, visited about thirty schools, and !
many school meetings; have used every means within my power tc '
encourage the work of education to go on, I have, by great exertion,
been able to organize a county teachers' institute, which proved a
Eeat benefit and encouragement to education throughout the eountj.
this connection, I would say, I do think more interest should be
manifested by the Legislature in encouraging and forcing teachers to
become members of these institutes; if need be. force them to attend,
or give into the hands of the county superintendent the power to re-
voke their certificates. It is very humiliating to think the count;
f7
superintendent is bound down by responsibilities, with no power to
act.
We have upward of forty school houses, mostly log, while some
are built with a view of worth and permanence. We are deficient in
apparatus. I have held six public examinations, and twenty-seven
private examinations; th«y have in every case been oral. We have
twenty-nine teachers in active service in the county, most of whom
are under second and third grade certificates. I have oiily three first
Sraded teachers. The pay is generally very good, from twenty-five
ollare to sixty dollars per month. In most subdistricts, schools have
been kept open for four to six months, the last school year, and many
are in the first and second month of the next year, now upon us.
In conclusion, allow me to say for and in behalf of those coming
after me, and, I hope, for the benefit and encouragement of education,
feeling a deep sense of its great importance, and the importance of
the office I now hold, and toe good that must of necessity accrue, if
properly attended^ that, under the requirements of the law, and the
responsibilities imposed, he, the county superintendent, does not re-
ceive compensation for his labor, sufficient to attract the attention of
men of education. On the other hand they feel disposed to, and do,
decline the office, and class it as one of the cheap offices of the county,
leaving political humbugs, and men of very inferior education, to take
charge of an office of great importance to the county. Our law-
makers must soon find it a very violent supposition indeed, that edu-
cated men will take such an office through a sense of benevolence. If
it was intended to be an important office in the State, an office that
would call around it educated men, why, in the name of justice, hide
its fees and salary withid the folds of the judicial cloak of a county
court, that acts upon the principle that they were elected by the
people as a committee of retrenchment only.
I do think the law could' be amended, paying the county superin-
tendent a stated salary, that he might devote all his time to the inter-
ests of education.
BOONK-^. A. Hendbbsok.
In regard to the educational procress in this county, I am happy
to state, there is marked increase in ^e interest in the public schools.
There areiewer private or select schools, and the public schools are
better patroniEed. As we become more familiar with the law, its
objects, and the means by which those results are to be secured the
more it is adopted, but in some respects we find it very difficult to
carry out I have particular reference to tne method in which the
school tax is collected, and I desire to call your attention specially
to the Aict, that it is impossible for the cbunty clerks to prepare, in
tim€^ the tax books for the different township clerks. Among other
things, it is made the duty of the township clerks, to return to the
collector of the county, the delinquent tax lists in their hands-, on the
first day of September, while in fact^ many of them do not receive
their books until after that time; the result of which is confusion,
and that produces complaint and aissatisfaction, and it is all referred
to the school law, or rather to the change made at the last session of
the Legislature. I am entirely in favor of the county collector col-
lecting also the school tax.
68
Many ^^ ^^e districts were induced to levy a tax this spring, hav-
ing witnessed the good results, to those districts which have fully
adopted the law the year previous, but I am of opinion that the con-
fusion above mentioned, will operate as a damper upon those who
have been favorabljr impressed, and unless some remedy is provided,
they will lose what interest they now have in the schools.
My effort has been strictly directed to securing a full organiza-
tion of the county, as I, in substance, stated in my last rei>ort No
one can do, satisfactorily to himself, and to all others interested, the
work expected of a county superintendent ; and it never will be done
until such a salary is provided as will command the services of a
thorough, competent, practical teacher.
BUCHANAN.— E. B. Neelky.
In presenting my third annual report of public schools of this
county, it affords me pleasure to report a most encouraging advance-
ment in the condition of our educational interests. The people gen-
erally throughout the county, are becoming more interested in the
subject of education. Many neat and commodious school houses
have been erected, and incompetent teachers have been compelled to
withdraw and make room for those possessing the proper qualifica-
tions.
When, contrary to my own personal wishes, I took charge of the
county schools two and a half years ago, I determined to labor hon-
estly and conscientiously for their improvement. It seemed to me,
that two objects were first to be accomplished, which having been ef-
fected, the rest would follow naturally and in order.
In looking around upon the condition of affairs, I found that there
were only two or three school houses in the whole county worthy even
of the name. They had been erected in the first place without any
reference to comfort or convenience, and through the lapse of time
and ill-usage, had fallen into woful (ulapidation. This, then, was the
first evil to be remedied, and hence, my first effort was to convince
the directors, in whose hands the remedy lay, that they could not ex-
pect good schools until they furnished good school houses. I am hap-
py to inform you that my efforts in that direction have been success-
ful even beyond mv expectations. In most of the subdistricts neat
and commodious school houses have been erected, and many of them
have been furnished with the new style of desks. Other subdistricts
have provided the necessary means, and will build early in the spring.
The old log school houses is fast becoming one of the relics of the
past, and in its place the eye of the traveler is greeted with neat struc-
tures of frame, brick or stone. This, then, is one great advance in the
right direction, and if nothing more had been accomplished, there
would be sufficient cause for encouragement and perseverance. But
improvement even more marked can, I think, be reported in another
essential particular.
We have now a much better class of teachers than I found in the
county two and half years ago. Under the old order of things, any
one who would take the trouble to apply for a certificate to teach,
could procure it. The consequence was, that the county was flooded
with persons wholly incompetent as teachers, who offered their ser-
vices to directors at low rates to the exclusion of well-qualified teach-
69
ers. 8ome excellent teachers were here, and they still remain, but
the great majority were wholly unfit for their calling, and should
never have received a certificate to teach. To remedy this evil, I de-
termined to make my examinations searching enough to test thorough-
ly the qualifications of every candidate, on each branch of study pre-
scribed in our public schools, and to refuse certificates to all who
failed to come up to the required standard. This unpleasant duty, I
have been compelled to perform in many inst.^nces, but the good re-
sults of adhering to that policy have not been slow in making them-
selves apparent:
A better class of teachers now present themselves for examina-
tion, those who know themselves to be incompetent, have discovered
that it is useless to apply for a certificate, and our schools, with but
few exceptions, are supplied with intelligent and faithful teachers.
Let county superintendents throughout the State, be firm and con-
scientious in this matter of granting certificates, and then let the Leg-
islature give us an adequate supply of well endowed normal schools,
and we may soon expect to see the dawn of a brighter day for the ed-
ucational interests of Missouri.
I was much pleased with your proposed plan for the establishment
of normal schools in the State, by districts, as explained in your re-
cent circular. I trust that this or some similar plan will be adopted
by the Legislature at its next session. Until we have normal schools
in Missouri, we must continue in the future as we have in the past, to
depend upon other States to furnish us teachers, thoroughly trained
and qualified for their work.
The public schools of the city of St. Josfeph, which were organized
under a special charter, have been under my supervision for the past
four years, and it is proper that I should close this short letter with a
brief report of these schools for the year ending July 31, 1868.
During the year the names of one thousand seven hundred and
sixty-six different pupils were enrolled in the St. Joseph public schools.
The average number belonging during the year was one thousand and
ninety-eignt; the average daily attendance was one thousand and
eighteen, and the percentage of daily attendance estimated upon the
number belonging was ninety-two and a half. The schools were
eleven in number ; school rooms, twenty-two; teachers, twenty-two;
besides a teacher of vocal music for all the schools during the whole
year, and a teacher of gymnastics for half the year. The total number
of seats in all the houses was one .thousand three hundred and six-
teen.
The board now own five school buildings, and have in process of
erection, and rapidly approaching completion, two more. One of the
new buildings contains four school rooms and a recitation room ; the
other contains six school rooms and a recitation room. Lhey are both
built after the most appro\red plan, will be provided with all the
necessary conveniences and appliances, and externally, will present
an exceedingly handsome appearance. They will furnish ample a^id
good accommodations for seven hundred pupils.
All of the school houses owned by the board are built of brick
except the colored school house, which is a frame building. When
the new houses are completed, the board will have provided seats for
2,016 pupils. It is probable, however, that some schools, now taught
in rented buildings, will then be discontinued. The population of the
city is about 30,000, and the number of children of school age, 5,044.
TO
CALLAWAY.-nJ. D. Jolly.
I am proud to say that the cause of education in this eonntvis
proirressing far better than I had any reason to hope that it would, in\ny
last letter. The people seem to be taking greater interest than ever
before, and I hope we will soon have schools that will be an ornament
to the county. ,
I have endeavored, as superintendent, to do all the work possible
in the time allowed for school duties, and have labored, to the best of
my ability, to make the people appreciate and understand the great
advantages that our present school system has over our old law, and
thus get them to interest themselves in organizing and carrying on
the schools.
The qualifications of the teachers are about 3^ on a scale of 5.
The great obstacle to overcome is low wages. Professional teach-
ers have not sufficient inducement to come here.
The schools have all, so far as I am able to learn^had at leasi a four
months' session, during the year.
OAMDEN.— F. L. Withaup.
1. Educational progreBs in the oovnty — ^This is by no means what
it might have been, owing to the indiflfefence manifested by the citi-
zens towards popular education. Every effort has been made to
lessen this evil, but so far, success is far away. This indifference,
coming as it principally does, from those who have children to edo*
cate. The children are not free from it. After a very imperfect thre«
or four months' school has been taught, school books are thrown
aside, until (perhaps) eight months later, the same thing is repeated.
2. Educational work dove hy county superintendent, — I visited
every township but two, distributed the school law and blanks, gave
directions how to go to work to organize lawfully. I also visited the
various schools about the middle of the term, addressing the childrei
on the great importance of securing an education, admonishing obe-
dience to their instructor, and diligence in their studies, closing, bj
extending a general invi-tation, through their teacher, and the whole
school, to their parents, friends and patrons, to honor us with their
presence on the closing day of the school, when we would have as
examination, and also give a few remarks on popular education, and
various other items, to increase interest in general education, etc.
With but two exceptions, in attending the closing days of twenty
schools, outside of the scholars not a single person, male or female,
attended. Nor was this all. Teachers generally complained of a vert
slim attendance of the scholars, while school oflBcers generally *''turne<l
up missing.''
3. Educational progress from other affencie8,—0f this we know
nothing. Citizens being so prompt in letting matters pertaining to
education, remain "m etafu quo^ so that those who may feel disposed
to do something, give up the idea as useless. Repeated efforts have
been made to get teachers, school oiRcers and heads of families to
subscribe for some educational journal, periodical, or mag'azine, bot
invariably the reply was ^'can't afford it."
4. Qualifications of teachers, — Also great room for improvement
Last November we made an eflFort to found a teachersMnstitute. The
71
county, having no public building, suitable to hold meetings infer the
purpose (our court house only existing in name) enquiries were made
of our county court, as to some assurance, that the expenses would be
paid, but that august body, in their great wisdom, also thought that
they couldn't aflord it As but very few of the teachers now em-
ployed, or likely to be employed in the future, follow teaching as a
profession, but few make any eflForts toward improving, for the impor-
tant duties of teacher. Teaching a school is considered more in the
light of making a few dimes, than to the all-important fact of 'teaching
the young idea how to shoot." Again, few, if any of our teachers
read any authors on teaching, and the greater portion, with and by
the consent of school officers, and parents, not only believe in keep-
ing or teaching a loud or open school, as they term it, but more pro-
perly called disorderly or noisy, but cling to the old fogy idea with a
pertinacity well worthy of a better cause.
5. Obstacles in the way of improvement. — ^The first and greatest
one is this : That under the circumstances, last above enumerated, the
dignity of the teachers' profession is entirely lost, nor can I see any
hope for improvement., until we go to work, and educate teachers
first, and then do away with the detrimental practice of employing
those who teach for the least money. Next comes the irregular at^-
tendance of scholars. The greatest and bitterest complaints from
teachers have been on this account. It is very strange, but neverthe-
less true, that after parents go to the trouble and expense of getting
up a four months' school (which, in the general estimation, is the ne
plus ultra)^ they do not send one-half of the time. In examining the
registers in three schools, the highest attendance was, out of eighty
days, thirty. In two others, thirty-five ; a few only have a two-third
attendance, while by far, the meg ority fall below one*half. One teacher
remarked to me that he had been six months' teaching a four months'
school. He could give no cause other than over-indulgence of the
parents. Hence, if only a four months school is taught, the children
on an average, receive only two months'' instruotion in the year.
Next comes the niggardly manner in which children are furnished
with books by their parents. In no school have I found all the books
necessary, while in many, classes of from three to six, had but one
book. In one school, asking the teacher how many classes he had his
school divided into, was answered with the utmost nonchalance, hut
one^ and that in the spelling hook^ and on being told to proceed
(this happened on closing day), as if usual,hehad two scholars chose
ibr a spelling match, arranging, true to his remark, the whole scl.ool
in the same, consisting of forty scholars, when they began atthehend,
spelt to the foot, back to the head, and so on, till ^'Webster's ElennMi-
tary" was exhausted. On further examination, I found that none of
the best spellers could read monosyllabic words, or repeat the least
part of the multiplication table. On taking the teacher to task ibr
the ^reat oversight and negligence, was told^^that it was impossible
for him to teach without books,^the truthfulness of which was apparent,
and I could say no more. The above is by no means an exaggerated
or isolated case, but very nearly represents the feelings of parents, as
to the knowledge of Addison remarks, ^'niggardliness is not good Lus-
bandry." Again, it is my firm belief, that as long as so much of the
management, as the law now imposes, rests with county courts, the
good the law has in view will never be accomplished. The courtf^, to
a great extent, are composed of men, who have become popular by
some actor deed during the last war, and but very little weight is
laid on what intellectual qualification they may possess. Thub ii
72
often happens, and will, as long as men are fi'nided by political en-
thusiasm, that men, who are not only entirely devoid of any intellec-
tnal qnalificaiions, but do not even possess sound sense enough to
judge those who may possess a small degree of intelligence, are placed
in positions to control those in whose care and custody the develop-
ment of the mind is entrusted. Such men are, therefore, called upon,
and by law have authority to pass judgment upon services required,
and as far as their knowledfi:e extends, performed. If we are to take
the accepted term, that "they are to judge others by themselvev
ought we to wonder at the 7n(hg7\aniraity with which we are compen-
sated? Ou^ht we to complain at the niggardly manner to them, per-
haps a hereditament, in which county warrants (worth fifty cents ob
the dollar), are issued to us at the xKie of ihref^ dollars per ditm\
Ought we to complain, when in order to attend to our duties, we must
hire, therefore, ahorse at two dollars, and pay board and lodging at
the same rate, viz : four dollars per diem (all of which has to come in
freeniaoks for aught they know), and come to receive one 50-100 del-
ars, and clear what — our pockets ? We only make these suggestions
for the benefit of our successors.
6. With but few exceptions, every township, or fractional par!
thereof, has had one or more public schools, for three or four monti?
during the year.
CAPE GIRARDEAU.— F. M. Grove.
I am pleased to be able to state that for the last year, there hts
been a general improvement in school matters. The privileges oi
general education is now extended to all classes. The qualificatioDs
of the several teachers remain nearly the same. Many obstacles in
the way of improvement are being removed. New houses are build-
ing, and the schools, in many cases, are kept open longer than is re-
quired by law.
Renewed activity, on the part of all oflScers in school matters ha?
{)roduced results that promise much lor the future welfare of the pub-
ic schools of this county.
CARROLL.— J. H. Baker.
Since the last report from this county, there has been a decided
change in the school houses. Many have been totally destroyed, and
new buildings, principally frame, have been erected.
There yet are several districts that cannot have schools in the
winter time, from the fact that the houses are untenable for winter
use. Others are still unorganized, among which I am compelled to
mention our own town, OaiTollton, which has a population of about
fourteen hundred inhabitants, and no prospects of a school house.
Last year the directors levied a tax of ten thousand dollars for the
purpose of erecting a school house here, but the county court
"vetoed'' it, and hence it was given up, and since then I have heard ot
no efforts being made towards building one.
Where new houses have been built, I have noticed, as yet, no
move towards improving or ornamenting the grounds surrounding
them.
78
In reference to furniture, I am glad to say that the old benches in
their various forms, are fast disappearing, and very good desks are
being made, generally to accommodate two papils each.
Good, substantial blackboards Bjre finding their way into almost
every school house.
As to the qualification of those engaged as^ teachers in the public
schools where i have visited. It is a pleasure for me to bear testi*
mony to the ability of a majority of them, especially was I pleased
with the words which so often greeted me, ^^I have not whipped a
single scholar in my school," it shows the fact that the teacher
could govern as well as teach their pupils.
At least three-fourths of the teachers are from the East, and
the most of them reflect credit upon the profession.
My examinations have generally been oral, from the fact that
very few attended them.
There is no public school at present within the county for
colored persons.
The schools of the county, in districts where organized, have
generally had from four to six months school during the last year.
CARTER.— John Hoskins.
As I have but little to report, it will, necessarily, be short.
Much interest is tiow being manifested in the cause of education
in some parts of the county.
Our school houses are, generally, of a very inferior class.
The grounds are, usually without fences.
Furniture, none; apparatus, none.
Teachers are not of the best, though we have some very good —
generally of the second grade. I have been obliged to adapt my
plan of examinations to the necessities of the case.
The oiBcers are not as punctual in reporting as they should be.
There are no colored children to care for.
We have no institute in the county.
We have no private seminary or academies in the county.
CLAY.— G. Hughes.
Since my last annual report, no new school houses have been
built in this county. The old ones have been repaired, in many cases
by voluntary contributions.
Many subdistricts remain unorganized, nevertheless, we have re-
ceived many additions to our corps of teachers, and a number of the
subdistricts are provided with very good schools.
The reports of school officers are not so full and prompt as they
should be. Some time must elapse before the requirements of our
hew school law are sufficiently understood to insure prompt reports
from all sections of the county.
The complete organization of the county would be greatly facili-
tated by a law giving to the county superintendent the power to ap-
point resident local directors, with the qualifications of grand jurors,
within those subdistricts where a sufficient number of qualified voters
u
cannot be i'ound to hold an election according to the general provis-
ions of the school law.
As a higher grade of qualifications among the teachers employed
in our public schools,is, doubtless, a want seriously felt in all sections
of the State, a system of normal schools, judiciously distributed,
would, certainly, be an important appendage to our public school sys-
tem. I hope that our Legislature may, at an early day, appreciate
the importance of such a movement.
OUNTON.— B. F. PoE.
There has been quite an improvement in our schools since my
last report. Notwithstanding the minds of our people have been ab-
sorbed, to a great extent, in political questions, the subject of educa*
tion has received good attention.
The provision in the law authorizing directors to make estimates
either for four or six months' school dunng the year, meets the appro-
bation of the people of Clinton countv. The directors who had not
made their estimates before the new law came in force, have made
them for six months' school.
I have visited most of the schools of this ,county during the year.
I have spent about seventy days in oflBcial duties.
We nave some private schools in the county, which are doing much
for the cause of education. But we have others, which are doing more
harm than good, being kept up for the benefit of a few aristocrats,
who will not patronize public schools, where the rich and poor meet
as equals.
I consider that we have an average grade of teachers for the
present day.
All of the schools have not been kept open three months during
the year.
Obstacles in the way of improvement-^1. The limited number of
professional teachers.
2. The lack of uniformity in text-books.
3. The want of commodious school houses, properly furnished, and
supplied with suitable apparatus.
4. The law provides for only six months' school during the year»
when we should have ten months, without submitting it to a vote.
The plan proposed by you, for the establishment of normal
schools in the State, is approved by the leading men of the coantv.
COLE— Jam£S Enloe, Jr.
1. Educational progress in the county of Cole has been consider-
able. As an evidence of this conclusion. 1 will give a few items : But
a short time ago, we had scarcely any schools, and what we had were
hardly anything but the name, being poorly taught and badly attend-
ed ; the morals of our youths almost wrecked and ruined by neglect
bad habits contracted, until it seemed that they thought nothing
worth their attention but drinking, swearing, and an almost total dis-
regard for morality, or even civility ; society almost broken up, and
the seeds of discord sown broadcast ; churches deserted and rotting
76
down in neglect; dramshops and places cf public resort crowded to
overflowing; ignorance, idleness and vice having full sway; the use-
ful pursuits neglected. This lamentable state of affairs was canned
partly by the war, but principally for the want of education. Our
public schools were not encouraged or patronized, poor teachers being
generally employed, such as would not work, and could not teach
(properly), and they not furnished with apparatus^ or suitable houses.
Such was education in this county; but, by the untiring efforts of the
friends of popular education, a great change has been wrought; lib-
eral educational ideas have been diffused among the mass of the people
(in the face of strong opposition), until they see the necessity of a more
thorough education, and have set about the work in earnest, and we can
begin to see some of the fruits of their labor, in the shape of more and
better school houses, better teachers, better society, moral and intelli-
gent children. We can now see the deserted school house once more fill-
ed, and the neglected playground filled by smiling children. Now we
can point, with a just pride, to a school house in almost every district —
and many of them good ones, too — which shows how high education
is esteemed.
2. Educatio7ial work done hy the county svperintendent — This
has been principally examining and instructing teachers, instructing
school ofiScers, visiting and lecturing schools, and encouraging educa-
tion as much as possible.
3. Educational work done hy other agencies. — ^The increased in-
terest manifested by the people, has been a most powerful help to the
cause of education, as well as to the school officers and teachers ; also,
people coming m who have seen the benefit of public schools, has
been a great help in bringing about the change for the better.
4. Qualification of teachers, — ^Their qualifications are various;
while some are not very well qualified, others are eminent. I am
pleased to say that there is a great change for the better in the way
of teachers ; we still lack a sufSciency of good ones; they are not all
of the best class; however, we have to do with such as we have, until
we can get better teachers.
5. Obstacles in the way of improvement. — I might say that one
of the obstacles is the want of gooa, energetic teachers ; another, the
want of funds (without direct tax) to carry on the school; also, the
want of apparatus, furniture and comfortable houses, and last, but not
least, is the hatred and prejudice that some have toward anything like
progress.
6. Have all the public schools in the county been kept open at
least three months during the year? I think all,or very near all, have
kept open that time, and many of them much longer.
COOPER.-jr. W. Smiley.
In no particular is the educational progress of schools in this
county more apparent than in providing better school houses.
Houses. — ^Ten new houses nave been built. Five of these are first
class buildings, size 24x36 feet, with clothes room, and seated with
patent combination desks. Average cost $1,200. It is to be regretted
that a few of the new buildings are too small. This is bad economy,
as these buildings must soon give place to others of larger diniensions.
Apparatus. — About twenty-four schools are now supplied with
outline maps, charts, globe, and numeral frame; and but few, if any,
76
are without that indispenfiable article to the live teacher^ the black-
board. A few schools are furnished with clocks and dictionanes.
The duties imposed upon the county superintendent by law, in
this county, would employ him more tiian three times the number of
days fixed by law, consequently, if any regard is paid to the time men-
tioned, many of the duties remain unperformed.
Visitations. — About twenty schools were yieited, devoting, on an
average, two hours to each school.
Examinations. — Public examinations are held on the last Satur-
day in each month, but many teachers, unacquainted with this arrange-
ment, presented themselves at other times, and were examined pn-
vately. Total number of certificates issued, 77. Number^ rejected, 6.
institutes,— '^wo institutes were held during the year ; one at
Mount Vernon, which continued two days. Much interest was mani-
fested by citizens, as well 'as teachers. JProf. Ripley, of the State Dni-
versity, and Prof. Kemper, of Booiiville, were present during the en-
tire session, and rendered valuable assistance.
The second meeting was held at Pisgah. More teachers were
present than at any previous meeting. Prof. Clark, assistant soperin-
tendent. Prof. H. H. Merrill, of the Missouri Female College, Boon-
ville, and Mr. O. H. Fethers, were present, and contributed, by lec-
tures, addresses and readings, to entertain and instruct those present
It gives me pleasure to say that many of the school directors were
present at these meetings, and took a lively interest in the proceed-
ings.
In nearly all the townships, the school directors have discbargeo
their sometimes thankless duties with a degree of faithfulness that »
commendable.
Teachers. — ^There is more inquiry for good teachers. To employ
poorly qualified teachers, at any price, is bad economy.
School directors should pay more attention to the grade of certi-
ficates, and pay accordingly.
I think it rather unfortunate that the form of certificates, "author
ized," should be designated by ^'first grade" and ''second grade," since
the difierence is in the number of branches specified. Iwouldsug
gest *' high school" and "common school."
Many of the teachers examined were deficient in a knowledge oi
the elementary sounds of the letters, and in the art of producing them,
and but few have introduced it as an exercise in the schools. Mentt
arithmetic is another branch, in which many teachers are deficient
Some overlook the great benefit to be derived from this study, tbeiffi-
provementof the reasoning faculties, by striving, merely, for the ^^
suit. They fail in not giving a logical solution to the problems, seetn^
ing to be satisfied, if they have obtained the true answer. We canno*
expect these and other imperfections, which exist, to be entirely eradi-
cated, until schools are provided whose specific object is the qualili
cation of teachers.
Irregularity of attendance, the want of better qualifications on
the part of teachers, and more permanent employment, are the cbiet
obstacles in the way of improvement. On the whole, our schools have
accomplished as much during^ the year as could be expected. Bat
one district has failed to provide a three months' school.
I cannot close this report without a passing notice of the graded
school in Boonville, under the efficient supervision of Professor J. <^'
Mason. Owing to the increase in the number of scholars, two addi-
tional rooms have been opened. A teacher, in music and German, has
77
been added to the corps, and instructions in those branches are now
given in the school.
Since my last report, Otterville has organized under the ^^ special
act," and has opened a ''graded school," which bids fair to be a sac-
cess.
We expect, by earnest and well directed efforts, to keep pace with
the march of improvement in education, and Subserve this great in-
terest, which underlies the welfare of our growing State.
DADE.— T. J. Ca VENDER.
Educational progress in this county has far surpassed all expecta-
tion. To every person who has noted our progress for the last two
years, in the broad fields of labor, it is gratifying, not only so, but a
pleasure to him who is connected with our present school system,
when he compares the present plan of instruction with the past Our
educated men no longer stand aloof from our system of public in-
struction ; they are lending a helping hand, making education more
among the masses.
Great zeal is being manifested, by all friends of education, to ex-
tend the limits of our schools to all embraced within the law.
Great interest is manifested in regard to the education of the
colored youth. We have colored schools in nearly every locality,
where tnere is a sufficient number for an organization.
I have spent seventy-eight days in the discharge of my official
duties; visited every school in the county, and find them in good run-
ning order. The obiect system of teaching is becomingmore general,
and patrons generally appreciate the teacher's labor.
Oi^r teachers, with few exceptions, are alive to their calling.
Teaching, in this county, is no longer looked upon as an imitative art,
learned by following the footprints of former time, but an art. based
upon unchangeable principles. During the past two years there has
been a liberal supply of Eastern teachers, and thev bring with them
the fruits of a well-trained education. We have other teachers, born
in Missouri, that honor their profession. I find no obstacles to impede
the progress of mental training, but it is moving forward gradually.
Nearly every sub-district in the county has a four months' school ;
many new houses are being built ; the frame building is taking the
place of the log hut, and comfortable seats instead oi slab benches.
The county that I have the honor to represent, though lying near
the frontier, is rich in resources. Our vast undeveloped resources are
attracting tne '^wise men of the East^" who are coming with all their
wealth, to make homes on our luxuriant soil. We can safely say, that,
before twenty years^ agriculture will revel here. Our streams will be
rendered twice musical by machinery, enabling us to manufacture for
our own consumption. Our prairies will be dotted with school houses,
our hills adorned with churcnes, working up the sublime object of
universal Christian brotherhood.
DALLAS.— W. B. Ooon,
It is tme, that the canse of education is not making as mnch pro-
gress as might be wished for, yet it is surely and steadily advancing.
78
Last year, great efforts were made by many school officers, and lar<^
and liberal estimates were generally made by directors who expected
some aid from the State. Ihc result was, that school taxes were very
heavy, and many enemies were made to the public school system and
school officers. Patrons were often heard to say that they had little
nse for such a free school system. Now, that we have had some aid
from the State, and see a prospect of that aid increasing, the people
are working with more energy, as may be seen in the new school
houses being built in almost every part of the county. Several toler-
ably good houses have been built since my last report
We have not had more schools during this year than we had last;
but they have been generally of a better character. Some of our
teachers have improved, and some new teachers have come to the
county. I think the people in general manifest a desire to employ
better teachers than formerly.
The law, as revised last winter, came to us very late in the spring,
after directors had begun to make their estimates, as directed by the
old law, which made it very difficult for school officers to learn their
duty in good time, but by patient efforts they generally succeeded in
preparing estimates, although a few districts failed. My most difficult
task, as superintendent, has been to secure good estimates and enu-
merations, and in most cases, I have met with tolerable success.
Some of the schools of this county have not been kept open for three
months during the present year, in some cases, on account of means,
and in other, on account of the difficulty of obtaming good teachers.
1 think that that clause of our school law, which requires a district to
have, at least, three months' school in each year, in order to be enti*
tied to any share of the public school fund, does not have the effect
desired; but has rather an injurious effect. Sometimes it is very
difficult to get a good teacher, and directors have to get a poorer one
or lose their school fund. At other times districts might do well, if
they could only save the fund, and continue for a longer term in the
next year.
There are but few colored children in this county, only one town-
ship has enough for a school, and there we have a school for them.
They appear to be doing well. They attend regularly and study dili-
gently. There should. I think, be some changes made in our school
law. Provisions should be made for a special meeting, when directors
have not been elected at the proper time, and better provisions for
the appointment of officers, when whole townships fail to elect. I
know, from experience, that the chapter on county superintendent
should be changed. His duties should be more definite, and he
should be allowed a salary as large as that of the best teachers in his
county, so that he may devote all of his time to his duties as county
superintendent, who has to make his support by some profession, can
do but little for the public schools. It appears, upon close exaniina-
tion, that the law was passed in a hurry, and not sufficiently consid-
ered in many respects.
DAVIESS.— W. M, BosTAPH.
Since the report of last year, there has been a decided improve-
ment in the school houses in this county. Many of them have been
I
79
almost untenable and worthless ; but by the earnest efforts, on the
part of many of onr citizens, a material change has been
effected, many of the old houses have been refitted, and quite a large
number of new school houses erected, which in style and capacity are
creditable to the localities in which they are situated ; but little at i
tention has as yet been given to the ornamenting of the grounds, and
the grounds are generally held by a lease so long as the same is used
for school purposes. There appears to be a general disposition on
the part of our citizens, to dispense with private schools entirely, as
the '^ common school " can be fully organized.
.As to school furniture, there is but little of any value, an ordinary
blackboard to be seen in almost every school room — there are, how*
ever, a few schools furnished with outline maps, reading charts,
globes, cubical blocks, &c.; but these articles are not in general use.
I have frequently called the attention of school officers to the im-
portance of furnishing the school houses with good and substantial
seats, and also the many advantages derived from a full suppl^v of the
apparatus so necessary in assisting the teacher in the proper discharge
ot the duties imposed upon him, and a lively interest is manifested in
the matter, but a want of necessary means, and an indisposition on
their part to impose any heavier tax at the present time, cripples them
in their endeavors to advance the interests in their townships.
As to the teachers, it affords me great pleasure to bear testimony
to the ability and fidelity of some of them, and the untiring energy
with which they press forward in the great cause in which they are
engaged. And especially to some of those young lady teachers, who
have devoted themselves to this profession. Their great success,
under so many disadvantages, affords the. amplest proof of their qual-
ifications, and of the interest they manifest in their calling, while I
regret to say that many, both male and female, regard their position
as rather humble, and pursue the calling but temporarily, care but
little for the cause of education, and, therefore, are wanting that
qualification the most essential for a successful teacher.
The plan of examination which I have adopted is to examine,
orally, in the various branches authorized by the school law, holding
two public examinations each year, at the regular sessions of the in-
stitute, and when application for an examination is made, after the
regular examination, I examine privately, but examine only such
teachers privately who were not in the county at the regular examin-
ation, or unable to attend.
So far, I have found the grade of scholarship below the grade of
average, and none have been thoroughly educated for the profession.
I do not expect to see much improvement, in this respect, until the
means are supplied by which such an education will be brought
within the reach oi the student.
The county teachers' institute in this county is In a flourishing
condition, with about fifty members, most of whom are regular at-
tendants, and a lively interest is manifested by some of them. The
lecture which you delivered here, at the fall session, has thoroughly
aroused our teachers to renewed efforts on their part, and to a thor-
ough appreciation of the dignity and responsibility of their position.
There is but one colored school in this county, and but little in-
terest is manifested in their behalf, conseauently, the school is not as
prosperous as it might be, although it is doing much better than was
at first expected. The colored people are very much interested, and
are doing all they can, and are accomplishing a great deal ; but, con-
80
sidering the opposition the edacation of the colored people had to
contend with fur a long time^ and now, the stolid indifference, on the
part of many of our citizens, the result, of course, could not have
been as great as if there had been no opposition.
In conclusion,! may add, that there has been no special supervia*
ion exercised over the schools in this county, and there will not be, so
long as the salary ot the county superintendent is so precarious.
Under the head of general remarks, I would most respectfully
suggest a few changes and amendments to our present school law. In
my opinion, the section of the law relating to the making out of the
tax books, by the county clerk, for the various township collectors, is
almost, if not entirely, impracticable. In the first place, the law re-
quires the county clerk to make out and deliver to the township clerk
the tax books, for the collection of the school tax, between the first
day of April and the first day of June. During that time, the county
clerk is employed in making out the tax book for the collection of Uie
State and countv revenue, and, consequently, the books for the col-
lection of the school taxes cannot be delivered to the township col-
lector much before the first of September, or about the time that the
law requires the township collector to return his delinquent list
This section needs amending, and I see no necessity for the county
officers having anything to do with school taxes of the different town-
ships. If we nad township assessors as well as collectors, the expense
would be no greater, and, so far as my information extends, would be
much more satisfactory to the citizens.
And further, in the acts relating to cities, towns and villagas,
there is no provision for the collection of school taxes upon the mer-
chants' statements, and, of course, none is collected upon those state-
ments. This part of the law, I think, ought to be amended, lor it
would certainly be just and right that all property should be taxed
alike, whether it be goods or any other property. With the excep-
tions I have mentioned,! think, the law is a good one.
The general prospects of cur public schools are daily brightening,
and many improvements have been made during the past year, and
we hope the time may not be far distant, when popular education will
be recognized in its true form, and regarded as it should be — ^necessa-
ry for the preservation of our political institutions.
DOUGLAS.— T. K Yawdklls.
We have twenty-five or thirty school houses— mostly log build-
ings, in good repair, with suitable play grounds. School furniture
and apparatus are scarce. Teachers are generally of the third grade.
We have not any county association or institute. But little interest
is shown in the education of colored pupils. I have had ten examin-
ations— nine males and one female. I have visited eleven schools. I
have spent twenty-five days in official duties. I have traveled two
hundred miles in attending to official business. I have written ten of-
ficial letters. We have thirteen public schools and six private. We
have no high schools, colleges or seminaries. We have no schools for
colored children. We have no school libraries.
I find the cause of education advancing in this part of the State;
the citizens are alive to their interest In my visits to schools, while
lecturing, I generally found crowded houses, township boards, parents.
81
teachers and yoaths, all participating in the general cause. I am
proud to see the march of improvement; it is increasing faster than
could be expected, after the misfortunes we have survived, the dan-
gers we have encountered, and the losses we have sustained.
DUNKUN.— S. Brannum.
My health has been so bad since August, that I have not been
able to visit schools, or do anything else. There have not been as
many schools kept open this year as I expected, on account of so much
sickness in the county, the chills and fever have been considered al-
most an epidemic this year. The people have been doing the best
they could, as to erecting school houses for the time coming. In some
places when the money stops, the interest in school stops. The
school houses are not furnished with anvthing, except wooden slabs
and hazel limbs. The grounds for school purposes cannot be objected
to. As for teachers, we cannot complain ; those examined this year,
with the exception of one, have stood on a scale of five ; they are-
from TexaSj Virginia, Tennessee, South Carolina, &c.; my plan of ex-
amination IS generally oral.
I made one attempt to organize a teachers' institute, but failed.
I would say that the people have no use for such a law as the onA
they now have; not one man out of every five or ten that will under-
stand anything about it. I think the law should be so amended as to-
give the countv superintendent, supervision over the whole school
business ; let all the money come into his hands, and to be paid out hy
him and to receive his salary out of the same fund ; a man may travel
far and wide, wear his tongue out, and then go before the county
court, and the judges will allow him ^fiOper diem in county warrants^
that will not buy a sheet of paper, nor anr envelope, nor anything^
else. The Superintendent had last as welLhave a sheet of brown pa-
per as the county warrants. There is a considerable amount of school
notes for collection, and those owing these notes, are so afraid that
the notes will be collected, that they consider the school law a perfect
farce.
GENTRY— J. B. Twist.
Educational progress in the county, — ^We are making rapid stridea-
in educational matters. The old log houses are giving way for neat,
comfortable frame houses, about thirty of which have been built du-
ring the past year. Many of these houses are well furnished with out-
line maps, charts, apparatus, etc.
Educational work donehy the county superintendsnt. — ^The edu-
cational work of the county superintendent during the past year has
been Kmited, owing to various reasons. A few subdistricts have been,
organized under his supervision. He has given directions for build-
ing and furnishing a number of houses. He has also endeavored to
revive the institutt^ by soliciting able speakers and teachers to at-
tend.
Educational work done hy other affenciea,~I!heTe has been no-
educational work done by other agencies.

«
Qualificationa of teacher 8,~1 must say that we have a very fair
<;orp8 of teachers, and it is encouraging to report the grade of scholar-
ship on the advance. Tet, we have not enough of first-class teachers.
At present, however, it becomes necessary to grant certificates to
many who should be pupils instead of teachers.
Obstacles in the way of improveme^it, — I migjit here add, the
main obstacle in the way of improvement, is the want of a suitable
number of proficient teachers. The schools of the county have all
been kept open from four to seven months during the year.
GREENE.— H. S. Creighton.
It is with pleasure I now attempt to make a statement of the con-
dition of the public schools in this county. Education is progressing,
slowly but steadily in this county. Notwithstanding the many difii*
culties and drawbacks it has to encounter, for there are very many ol'
our people opposed to the present system of schools, and are sighing
for tne ''Constitution as it was,'' and the good old schools of the daji
of yore, untrammeled by rigid school laws that savor of equality ora
common system for rich ani poor; and then the horrors of being tax-
ed to educate the poor, build school houses^ and furnish them witii
comfortable seats, blackboards, etc., when they themselves had re-
ceived their bountiful share of education sitting on the half of a split
log, in a pole house, without a nail or pane of glass about it, and not
a sign of a blackboard thought of. But still, worse than all, yooi
school law provides for the education of colored children, and we are
taxed to provide houses, pay teachers, etc., "to give them niggers some
larnin^ which is putting them on an equality with us," But we have
a large population in this county who are putting forth their best ef-
forts to make the common school system a success, and they may re5t
assured that their honest toil will not be unrewarded, or their labor
spent in vain.
I have spent some eighty days during the past year as superin-
tendent of schools. I have attended to business regular twice every
month, and often double that number per week by special agreement
I have visited quite a number of schools, met some of the townshi?
boards, consulted others by letter, etc. My reasons for not sperdinc
more time visiting schools are, because oir county is considerably in
debt, our taxes are heavy, and we are obliged to tax people to "rue
our schools the lawful time.
Our county court is composed of men that are up with the limes.
And all thanks are due them for the extension of time they have
granted me during the years I was superintendent, for it requires a:
least one hundred and fifty days to do the business of superintendent
of this county as it shoula be done.
We have a good grade of teachers, some of them graduates of
colleges East, others native born. But a large mjgority of our teach-
ers were educated East. I think the teachers of this county are fully
up to, if not above, an average of the State. I believe all our public
schools have been kept open the time req^iired by law, except in
newly organized subdistricts, where they have no school houses.
There have been several new school houses built in our county this
year, but there has been very little done in the way of fencing or
adorning school house grounds.
83
I think the greatest obstacles in the way of improvements are,
a want of public funds, and negligence in executing the law. But,!
think, if there could be any means devised to increase our public
school funds, so we could run our schools at least four months with-
out airect taxation, it would aid materially in the execution of the
laws. But some of our township clerks say, the small amount drawn
does not pay to keep up the organization. I suggested a plan in my
last year's report for raising funds, which I still think would work
welL And now, I close my report by saying, that this about closes my la-
bors as superintendent of schools for Greene county, and when I take
into cor sidt ration the condition of the schools af this county when I
commenced my official career, I feel there has been quite a change
wrou2:ht in our county in educational interests, and that our people
have been aroused to the interest of the young and rising wants of
our fast growing population. And while I attach very little impor-
tance to my own labors, I would say that more might have been done,
had the office been more remunerative, but at present it has to be
coupled with other business, which, in my case, always conflicts, and
therefore, I could not spend the time.
I close, my alreadv, too long report for the interest contained in
it.
GRUNDY— R. C. Norton.
I have the honor to report the following, relative to the schools
and educational interests of Grundy county:
Our reports show that schools have been maintained in all the
districts of the county as the law requires, and that many districts
have, by special arrangements sustained schools for nearly (Rouble the
time required. Most districts of this county which had not built
suitable school buildings during the year preceding, have built them
during the past year, so that now, nearly every district in this county
has a good school house, well furnished, costing from eighty to twelve
hundred dollars. Thus the old sheds, exponents of the thoughtless,
antiquated, and illiterate, have given place to new, comfortable ana
commodious school buildings, true exponents of science, literature,
civilization, and general prosperity.
The furniture in our school rooms is all of home manufacture, yet.
is made according to the most improved plans, is well arranged, and
speaks volumes to the comfort and advantage of both teacher and
pupils.
The grounds have been fully described in my previous reports,
and I need only add that some districts have fenced them, and have
planted trees and land marks, thus commencing to beautify and adorn
them.
About half of the schools are well supplied with apparatus.
Of its corps of teachers this county may well be proud, although
isonie do not possess superior attainments, and are not just what we
would have them, or what they would be themselves, yet they are
^trivi^g to become efficient in their calling, and the others, which
constitute the major part, are of the first order.
Eight days have been spent in holding teachers' institutes, said
nstituies were well attended, and have done much to advance the
;he cause of education in this county. Examinations have been con-
84
ducted largely upon the oral plan, yet written examinations hare
been frequently substituted, tne graduation of competency beini:
from one to five. The law being quite well understood, and the or-
ganizations complete, school officers have had verv little trouble in
making their reports, and have not, to my knowledge shown an?
tardiness whatever.
There being but few colored children in this county, but little
interest has been awakened in their behalf, still an effort is now beine
made to organize a school for them. Educate the masses and the
country is safe is our motto, and for that will we work. There is on^
college in this county, situate at Edinburg, said college is under tbe
management of Frof. J. K. Yertrees. It is b^ilt in a pleasant aci
healthy locality, and, with its efficient corps of teachers, offers rare
opportunities to all desiring to obtain a thorough and complete eo>
cation. We have also the public schools of Trenton, organized ondrr
the graded system, which are now in a prosperous condition, and doini
their part in the great work of educating the youth.
The school law, by its successive revisions, has been much is'-
proved, but it is not perfect. Still, as the committee to whom tte
revising or amending is committed, will be apprised of the need ::.
changes, I will not name them, but suggest that the changes o:
amendments be just as few as will answer the purpose, that theyU
plain, definite, easily understood and obligatory.
Legislation, which contemplates taxation, and permits the willin:
to pay, without giving power to compel payment from the unwillin:
is of little benefit to a State.
Having resigned my nomination at the primary election to tk
office of superintendent. Prof. J. E. Vertrees is elected my success:,
and I feel assured, that under his direction, the public school interer?
of Grundy county will be well cared for, and that 1876 will notiv
franchise a single person in this county, on account of his igtc-
ranee.
HARRISON— B. G. Miller.
^
1. Educational progress in the county. — Under this head I c^
say that there is quite an advance, evidently the people are becomi-
interested on the subject of education. New school houses are beb:
erected and old ones repaired, and furniture for the sam^, and scho
apparatus furnished.
2. Educational work done hy county superintendent. — ^I ha''
traveled, lectured, visited schools, examined teachers, counsele:
school officers, written letters and held two regular institutes of ti^'
days each.
3. Educational work done ly other agencies. — I have had ^
assistant to examine teachers j and the teachers, many of whom ha^t
agreed to organize township institutes throughout tne county, a:^-
some are already being put m operation.
4. OualiAcations of teachers. — ^In this* there is considerable ai;
vance. Old-fashioned teachers are giving way to a better class, aru
erelong, old Harrison will compare with tne older settled parts.
5. Obstacles in the way of improvements. — ^There are manv -^
the way. Some think that ^^it is not necessary to be educated much."
others, that ^Mt is too expensive." As a general rule I think that th^
85
parents would send to school, if it would always come free, and yet
there are some that would hot send much if the schools were free and
in reach of their ^little ones." My opinion is that the schools should
be free and the parents compelled to send their children to schooL
This, and this only^ will make education general.
6. Have all the public sohooU in the county been kept open at
least for three months during the year, — I think so, at least I have no
reports to the contrary.
HENRY- M. Zkner.
Daring the past year, the educational interestsof our county have
received more than usual attention. A number of school-houses have
been erected. The interest in schools, on the part of officers, parents,
and teachers, is measurably augmented. School officers, in quest of
teachers, make pertinent inquiries after fitness and qualifications,
rather than for diminution in pay.
I visited all the schools in operation in the county during the past
year, so far as practicable. Organized a teachers' institute, of which
we held two sessions during the year. (The second one was a decided
success.) • .
On the reception of the new school law, in April last, I made
appointments throughout the county, meeting the school officers in
each township^ and assisted them in making their estimates for school
purposes, and as a consequence, there was not an organized sub-
district in the whole county, which had not made adequate provisions
for schools, school houses, etc., for the current year.
We cannot acknowledge ourselves under obligations to foreign
agencies for co-operative aid, having been less favored than we de-
served. Our co-efficients extraordinary, have been a few live teachers
elimenated from the totality, who have kept up local organizations,
which have been salutary and effective.
I think our teachers in qualifications and adaptability, will make a
favorable comparison with their confreres in other counties, although in
exceptional districts, the harvest transcends the capacity of the reap-
ers, a state of affairs, however, unremedial at present.
One of the greatest obstacles in the way of improvement,.is the
constant manipulations of the school law by each successive Legisla-
ture, without any apparent betterment. Its repeated mutations, baf-
fling the understanding of school officers and people, and exhausting
their patience. For this reason, I did not recommend any change in
the law in my last annual letter, and I do not advise one now, but I
do think it advisory to have a county board of education in each
county, composed of the superintendent, county clerk, and county
treasurer, to settle disputed points between township boards of educa*
lion and other difficulties that often arise.
-Nearly all of the public schools in the county have been kept
open thiee months during the past year. Some few latelv organized
districts, had not the funds for a public school, and others had no
school houses in which to have a school taught.
86
HOLT. — Stephen Blanohard.
1. Educational Progress. — Considerable attention has been
given, by some of the school directors, in the selection of the best
qualified teachers, and in visiting the schools, and co-operating with
tne teachers for the advancement of their pupils.
2. A commendable zeal has been manifested, in some portioDs
of the county, in the erection of suitable school buildings.
3. Our county court has made siich appropriations to the county
superintendent as keeps him busily employed aniong the school?
about four months in the year. This is not enough time, but it is so
much in advance of former years, that the people are greatly gratiiieJ
and benefited.
4. Teachers' institutes have been held twice each year, as the
law requires. The teachers have come together, and have exchangtd
their views, particularly upon the theory and practice of the teach
ing, and have been greatly benefited, and better prepared to act weil
their part in the duties of the school room.
6, The best lecturing talent that we could procure, gratuitously,
has been employed, and our teachers instructed and the people edi-
fied.
Forest City has organized under the law for towns and cities.
The educational board has nearly completed a brick school house
62 by 22^ feet.
1. Work done hy County Superintendent — All of the school?
have been visited. There are now forty-five in the county. Sonieo:
them have been visited twice, and a lecture delivered at night, earl
time. This has required a travel of eight hundred and forty-three
miles. The pupils have also been examined, and their progress nctei
One hundred and fifty-four letters have been written.
At each sitting ot the township board required by law, the super-
intendent has been present.
The school law, and blanks, have been distributed by him, throuLib
the county, and in portions of adjoining counties, when found des-
titute.
2. QualiUcationH of Teachers, — The majority of our teachers are
well qualified for the discharge of their duties. Some are deficient in
regard to a knowledge of human nature, and consequently donot su^
ceed as well as they otherwise would.
3. Obstacles in the way of Improvement. — Poor school houses
may be mentioned as one great hinderance. In a house without i
blackboard of any kind, and perhaps destitute of any thing on which
writing can be done, with seats to correspond, no teacher can impar.
the instruction to pupils that could be done with better fixtures.
4. Some of the subdistricts contain so few pupils, that thev ^^
not draw sufilicient money to keep the schools in session beyond four
months, and some of them hardly that length of time.
5. Unwillingness on the part of tax-payers to continue the
schools after the public money has been expended. The children
throughout the county do not attend the schools quite one-half of the
time thev are taught, and it is easy to see how this is : If the school-
are taught in the summer, the larger pupils, in the rural districts, are
on farms; if taught in winter, the small children can go only a month,
or possibly six weeks, when bad weather and roads bearin, they
cannot go. The fall work is not finished until after the scliool has
been in session for four or six weeks, and, after a commencement has
87
been made, the pupil goes quite irregularly until its close, and gets,
perhaps, scarcely two months' instruction. Can any one be astonish-
ed, under these circumstances, if their pupils do not learn much ?
6. Parents are too careless, in regard to the attendance of their
children upon our free schools.
7. Irregularity in attendance is another great obstacle in the
way of the pupil's advancement.
All of the schools have been kept open three months.
HOWARD.— T. J. Dkatherage.^
•
The condition of the schools in this county, I think, is probably
better than they have been in the past few years, but they are not yet
in such an improved state as I would desire.
The great difficulty seems to be in getting the school officers
throughout the county to take the proper interest in their duties, and
the schools in their own immediate subdistrict, many of whom do not
seem to think that prompt action is any great virtue.
We have had schools in very near all of our subdistricts in the
county. Some, however, for want of school houses, and other causes,
have failed to organize and keep up schools, but the necessity of hav-
ing comfortable school rooms is becoming more manifest to all, and
there is now a considerable number of comfortable and generally con-
venient hpuses, that have been finished in the past year, and, I think,
will be more in the next year to come. The school houses that are
being built are generally framed, neat and convenient.
The amount of school furniture in the county is very small ; but
little of the improved kind is in use. Maps, charts and globes are
things of history, and not known, except in high schools and colleges.
I hope to see a greater interest in all improvements of schools and
school furniture throughout the county, very soon.
My time has been spent, principally, in trying to get the school
districts in the county organized, and in working order. The great
diflSculty seems to be the fear of taxation to keep up schools. Not-
withstanding this objection, our people are anxious to have good
schools, and I hope the schools will be better patronized and sustain-
ed in the next year than in the past.
I hope to do more work in the ensuing year, than I have done be-
fore, hoping the salary of county superintendent will be more liberal
than it has been.
The salary of teachers in this county will average about fifty dol-
lars. An experienced teacher would have no difficulty in gettinff
even more than the above amount. Some districts have paid as much
as seventy-five to one hundred dollars.
We have teachers of probably as good a grade as any county in
the State, at least, I think, would compare favorably with any. But I
still hope to see the qualification of teachers of a much higher grade
filling all our schools. Certainly, one of the most important qualifi-
cations in a teacher is a high moral qualification, and one that will
labor to impress morality upon the minds of his pupils. The manner
of opening most, if not all, oi our schools, is an evidence of the want
of this qualification in teachers. Words'of moral instruction seldom
escape the lips of teachers. How long shall this practice be kept up
88
in our schools ? Let us recollect that early impressions have the meet
lasting effect upon children.
The colored schools of our county have been almost a failure, from
several causes. One is, the colored population have congregated at
or near the towns of the county, and those who are left in the country
are so much scattered, that there has been but small provision made
to school them. There has been colored schools in Glasgow, Roan-
oke and Fayette, and some other places in the county, but they have
been conducted principally by colored teachers, of little experience,
and consequently done but little good. The school at Glasgow last
year numbered some ninety scholars, and was taught by a white
teacher of very good qualifications.
In the exammation of teachers, I have generally questioned them
on the principles of all the branches required by law to be taught in
the public schools. I have granted, to male teachers, sixty-seven cer-
tificates, and to females, twelve.
The inquiries, etc., that I have answered by letter, I have not
made any record of, but suppose that one hundred would not be an
over-estimate. This, alone, shows something of the labors of a super-
intendent, and the insufliciency of his pay.
Besides the primary schools of the county, we have Central College
located in the city of Fayette, and conducted by a very able corps of
teachers, and numbers eighty pupils ; also at the city of Glasgow, we
have Pritchett Institute and Lewis College, and most deservedly
popular.
Besides these institutions, we have a female institution in Fay-
ette, unoccupied, at present, which, before the war, was one of the
most flourishing and popular institutions in the State. Hoping these
scattered remarks may elicit proper attention from those interested
in schools.
IRON.-»-JoHN Donaldson.
Since my last report, I am happy to be able to say, that there has
been a greater interest manifested on the subject of popular educa-
tion in Uiis county than last year. Quite a number of school build-
ings have been erected, and others commenced, but not as yet
finished.
The village of Pilot Knob has two commodious public school
buildings, in each of which is a school in a flourishing condition. A
large number of children in regular attendance in each, and under
the instruction of faithful,, zealous, and in every way competent
teachers. Fortunate, it would be, if every neighborhood where dis-
tricts are located, were blessed with such teachers. However, I can
say this much, for the other public schools in the county, that the
teachers seem well-qualified, both morally and intellectually for the
responsible positions they are called to occupy, and are so laboring as
to show that the work of teaching is a pleasant employment, and Uiat
their hearts are in the work.
While I have written thus encouragingly, I do not wish it to be
understood that the people are as much interested on the subject of
education as they should be, and as the importance of the subject
demands. When we consider that the prosperity and permanency of
our government and free institutions depend under Qod upon the
89
morals and intelligence of the rnlers and the ruled, the subject of
education becomes at once a subject of vast importance.
As to the education of the colored inhabitants, I would report
that it is being attended to as far as practicable. There is a school
for them in Ironton, which is attended by the children from
Pilot Knob, Ironton and Arcadia. The teacher is a lady of fine abili-
ties, and one who takes a deep interest in the welfare"^ of this long,
degi'adedj neglected, and despised race. They have in contemplation
the erection of a building in Ironton, both lor school and religious
purposes.
I have issued the past year, seventeen certificates to about an
equal number of males and females. The average time of these cer-
tificates, about one year and six months. The average standing of the
persons commissioned, is from three to lour.
We have been endeavoring to keep up our teachers' institute, and
teachers' association, as faithfully as circumstances vould admit.
I have not been able to visit all the schools in the county, on ac-
count of poor health, and the want of suitable transportation, as my
salary was not sufficient to justify me to hire conveyances.
And here, I would beg leave, to make a suggestion through the
State Superintendent, to the Legislature, on the subject of the salary
of county superintendents. What thejr now get is not sufficient to just-
ify them in spending much of their time from home, especially,
when they have families to support, and when they have other busi-
ness to attend to, and at which they can make more money. If, as in
some States, a salary, say from five to eight hundred dollars, was al-
lowed to each county superintendent, the State, instead of being a
loser, would a gainer in the end. The people would then be more
particular in putting the right kind of men in as superintendent, and
well qualified persons would be more willing to take upon them such
office. The interests of education would be greatly promoted be-
cause these officers could and would give most of their time to this
work, and in this way, the subject of education with all its bearings
and interest, would be continually kept before the minds of both
parents and children.
JACKSON.— S. S. Brtant.
In answer to your circulars, requesting information on certain
points. I submit the following, imperfect though it may be, on ac-
count of meagreness of reports. And, though I may not be able to
furnish you with all that you require, yet I can give you such a gen-
eral view o[ our educational matters as will acquaint you with our
status. Jacks n, then, reports progress, and begs but little more
time to become the great educational centre of the State. Our pro-
gress of this last year is more easily reckoned by reference to tax-
Books, by estimates, by the number of school buildings erected, than
by the few words I am permitted to use in this letter. I cannot give
these in detail, but there are some things, it would be unjust to pass
without a reference. As a house discovers the mind of the architect,
so a school building discloses the state of education — what the people
think of it; just here, Kansas City claims honorable tnention; for she
haa done wonders in this particular: many cities much older cannot
claim half as much. Her public scnool buildings being the most at-
90
tractive buildings in the city, not the least expensive, and the most
comfortable ; she has made great eflFort, put forth every energy to
have the little ones properlv cared for and to render their school days
the most pleasant of life. But the work is only begun according to
her plan; many more such buildings are to be erected, which plan,
when complete, will render this city as famous for its schools as it is
for its hills and the energy which is leveling them. The cause of
education, in Kansas City, this year has run, ^^pari pastu^ with her
commerce; resting to some extent, the equilibrium once disturbed
by her commercial interest. If this same public spirit continues,
(and there is no reason why it should not,) the schools of Kansas City
will be its own pride, as well as one of its chief attractions.
The question will not be much longer, " How are the schoolsf
for they will be known far and wide. Independence, too, is not least
among the cities, though, for the present, shaded in a commercial
point of view, by her more illustrious neighbor, yet she presumes to
rival her (and even those more experienced), in instruction and dis-
cipline. We cannot lay claim to as fine houses, and if we could, it
would be ungenerous tor a parent to eclipse the daughter in style.
One day we expect to see our grounds adorned and beautiful to such
an extent, that it will be the chief resort for those who wish to feast
the eye or refresh the min «. We have good public schools here,
Westport sends in, also, a very favorable report, adding : " This will
give only a remote idea of our future." This town has been very lib-
eral, expending about twelve thousand dollars for school purposes.
These, and such like, will give you some idea of education in Jackson.
As to the rural districts, if there is anything in the public school
system, they will have it; schools they will have; accepting what is
given by the law, they will do more, if necessary.
Thus far, all that has been said is concerning the preparation of
the people to have their children taught; but there is another side to
it, that of the teacher. Would that the zeal of the people lor good
education could be met by the corresponding zeal of the teacher.
We have but few experienced teachers, and some that experience has
not profited, and some that refuse all means to profit. A teachers^
institute is passed unheeded by most, but we congratulate ourselves,
we have enough to manage it. Profesnonal teachers are scarce.
Many persons come to spv out our goodly land — have taught
before, but have come to the conclusion they were not " called.^
They come with no idea of teaching, but then they do not like to be
on expenses. '* Itinerants " is the word; attainment sufficient to ob-
tain a certificate, but not tact enough to impart; can hear a lesson,
but cannot teach: take but little pride in their success, teaching not
being their " traae." All of this class have gone to school some, but it
is now three or four years since, and "I expect you will find me alittle
rusty," is generally the introductory remark to an examination.
" 'Tis certain they can write and cipher, too/'
except in mental arithmetic, which most have never seen. We have
some splendid teachers among us, as good as anv county can boast-
loving their work, and not " stern to view." Ihey " do not dismiss
their cares when they dismiss their flock ;"^ men of " letters, manners,
morals." Many of this class — enough to tone up the others, if com-
munication could be established, and I hesitate not to say ttiat this is
already accomplished, in the election of a good and faithful school
man as my successor in office. The projected normaKschool would
91
have fine play here. '* Passahle^^ is not a sufficient! j strong word, but
^^good'' is too strong, to affirm of all of our teachers.
As to the normal school, Independence is, without doubt, the
place for one, it the idea becomes a success.
Schools have generally continued over three months.
JASPER.— J. C. WiLLODGHBY.
School houses. — ^There are eighty-five school houses in the county ;
twenty comfortable; forty that are passable, being warm, but without
any conveniences. The remaining twenty are well ventilated log
huts. Some fifteen are in process of erection, being built with a view
to comfort and convenience.
Grounds. — From one to five acres are allowed to each school
hou^e, to be inclosed and planted in groves, in the future.
Furniture — Most of our school nouses are poorly furnished, hav-
ing benches, without backs, for seats, and rough boards for writing
' tables. Some six or eight are even destitute of blackboards ; a few
are furnished with patent seats. Those in process of erection will be
furnished with the same.
Apparatus. — But lew of our schools are, as yet, provided with
any apparatus. Some four or five are furnished with globes and out-
line maps, and national school tablets, in lieu of spellers.
leaohers. — Our teachers are all we could expect. Few older
States can boast of better. Nearly all of them had been teachers in
fi;ood standing prior to their coming to Missouri. They are, as a class,
faithful, energetic and competent.
Institutes. — I held, during the past year, two institutes of four
days each. In the first session, sixty teachers were present ; during
the last institute, there were some fifty in attendance. In both ses-
sions there was considerable interest manifested; all seemed anxious
to become fully prepared for the great work before them.
Reports of school officers are not what might reasonably be ex-
pected, many not being as prompt as they should be in sending in their
reports.
That our schools may become anything like a success, more ample
provisions must be made for a general supervision by the county su-
perintendent. Our local officers do not manifest the interest in
schools requisite to the proper education of our children; therefore,
it would be well for us to imitate the exemple of some of the older
States — pay the superintendent of schools sufficiently to devote all
of his tims^ if necessary, in the interests of the schools of his county.
LAFAYETTE.— G. K. Smith.
^Educational Prooress. — During the year, seventeen good school
houses have been built, mostly frame, but neat and tasty in their ar-
rangement, and many of them are seated with the improved gradu-
ating hinge seat and desk. Others are under contracjt and will be
finished soon. I am encouraged to say, I believe the good work will
go bravely on, until every subdistrict is provided with a good house^
conveniently and comfortably furnished.
92
Educational Work Done. — I have visited the schools so far as
time and circumstances would allow; delivered four public lectures;
wrote twenty letters ; traveled about four hundred miles ; examined
one hundred and eighteen teachers ; issued seventy-eight certificates ;
attempted three times to organize an institute, and failed for want of
sufficient attendance. 1 very much regret I cannot claim a more ac-
tive engagement in behalf of the schools of the county, but must
confess myself one of those whose time and thoughts have been too
much tasked by other things, to permit me to render as much per-
sonal aid in this important work as I desired, or so much as my views
of dutv to the community dictated. I would most respectfully sug-
gest, that the next General Assembly so amend the law, applying to
county superintendents, that the office may be made more efficient.
Educational Work done hy other Agencies* — None.
Qualification of Teachers. — We have a few men and women who
make teaching their profession, who are devoting their time and en-
ergies to make themselves an honor to the cause, and to fill with dig-
nity the responsible calling, but a large majority are young teachers
in their first terni, a few in their second, consequently of but little or
no experience. Some of them are doing well, and eive promise of
great usefulness, others will have to abandon the wort.
Obstacles in the way of Improvement. — ^The want of greater in-
terest among the people.
Have all the Scnools been kept open at least three months in the
vearf — In all the townships organized, most of the subdistxicts have
had a three months school, many four and six months. A few only
have failed, and that where no house could be procured ; two town-
ships have no organization.
Normal Schools. — I am gratified to see the efibrt you are mak-
ing, to bring the subject of normal schools before the next General
Assembly, for I regard such schools as one of the most important
branches of the educational department of any state; their influence
upon, and benefit to other schools can scarcely be over-estimated.—
Many of our schools are filled with young teachers, without any ex-
perience in teaching or discipline. , The nrst few months with them,
are of little value to pupils placed in their charge ; weeks at least,
and months more probably, are consumed by them in learning how
to go to work ; meanwhile, the valuable time of the children is lost,
perhaps more than lost, for children in school are either doing well,
or ill, are never idle; and unfortunately, it is customary to select
teachers of inexperience to classes of small children. The normal
school rectifies all these mistakes, for in selecting teachers who have
passed through one of these scnools, the directors will have full
knowledge of what has been their success as teachers, not merely as
scholars. It will be known that they have received the necessary in-
struction and experience, to enable them at once to enter upon the
successful discharge of their duties as teachers. But my honest con-
victions are, that we would reap a greater and more immediate ben-
efit, by establishing a school of tnis sort, for every three or four
counties at most, instead of the division as laid down in your plan. —
And the Legislature that moves in this matter, will do a ^reat work
for the educational interests of the State, which will lay her people
under obligations, and claim their warmest gratitude and sincerest
thanks.

LAWRENCE.— J. H. Woods.
The process of education in this coanty, is onward and upward,
slowly though it be in some subdistricts. We have a higher grade
of teachers than last year, and about thirty new school houses have
been built and furnished, since October, 1867.
Through our countv teachers' institute, we hope to effect greater
improvements within the next two years. Our institute is incorporated
as a permanent literary society, with power to prosecute literary en-
terprises. Through it we have already established a county library,
consisting of valuable books for teachers, school officers, and advanced
students.
The institute has also matured plans for, and located in the
county, (at Marionville), an institution to be known as the " Missouri
Normal tJniversity." The work is in progress, foundation wall laid,
and material being gathered upon the site, for the work of construc-
tion.
We shall unitedly labor for the completion of this building, that
we may secure the State patronage, according to the plan you pro-
pose for State normal schools.
My labors as county superintendent, have been earnest, and
scarcely has a day passed lor the last two years, but what I have la-
bored publicly or privately, for the elevation and prosperity of our
school interests.
I have nearly secured uniformity of school books. The list of text
books recommended by you, predominate in the county. The arith-
metics and geo^aphies have no opposition. The National Headers
have the Eclectic to compete with, but are gaining ground.
I am endeavoring to bring the primary schools near^^r to what they
should be, and at the same time, I am laboring to show to school offi-
cers the advantage of central or graded schools. Several townships
are about wrought up to the acting point on this subject, and I think
six or eight central township schools will be established during the
next year.
In educational interests, I h»ve had the voluntary aid of L. M.
Andrews, teacher, Mt. Vernon, Robt. Kelly, editor ** Fountain," and
numerous other teachers and citizens of the county.
I grant three grades of certificates to teachers and examine by
written lists of questions. To ihos'e passing satisfactory examination
in the primary, also in the higher mathematics and natural sciences, I
grant first grade certificates. To those passing with perfect marks in
the primary branches only, I grant second grade, and to those barely
passable, third grade. Those nolding these grades are about equally
divided.
The obstacles in the way of improvements are numerous, the
principal of which are the continual complaints against taxation, and
a want of proper appreciation among the people, of the public school
system.
Out of sixty- four subdistricts in the county, not more than four
have failed to open public school at least three months during the
year; Many of them five and six months. Many of the districts open
private or subscription schools, after the public schools are out
I shall soon make mv official bow to my successor, and vacate in
his favor. But I and others will' not relax our efforts to make Law-
rence county, stand first in Southwest Missouri.
We ask your aid and advice in the future as in the past

LINCOLN.— J. R. McOlkllan,
1. Several school houses have been built, since my report last
year) and are ornaments to their districts. They are comfortable and
convenient, and some have furniture of the most improved styles.
Nearly all the old houses have been repaired. Ten districts have
made arrangements this year to build next spring. We shall soon
have all the school houses in this county of a good and substantial
character.
2. Where new houses have been built, the grounds are receiving
some attention.
3. Improved furuit re is in some of the new houses, and will be
placed in nearly all the houses to be built next year.
4. No apparatus in any district. *
5. and 7. No professional teachers; and the grade of scholarship
is very low.
6. My plan of examination is: asking questions so as to ascertain
whether or not the applicant understands the principles of the subjects
required to be taught.
8. I have no institute. The sixty days allowed in which to per-
.form all services, does not allow time to discharge other duties, which
cannot be avoided, as they , should be done, and thus prohibits the
institute from being held, unless the superintendent works for noth-
ing.
9. Reports of school oflScers are generally well made. Their re-
ports are to be made in April, and the requirement of them this tail,
created some confusion. I do not find any law requiring reports from
districts in September.
10. Interest manifested in education of colored . people, is such as
required by law, and no more. People will not be driven into doing
distasteful things by any laws on the subject.
11. The "'Christian Institute" and 'Tarker Seminary," both in
Troy, are excellent schools, and in flourishing condition. I have no
reports from other private schools in the county.
12. The changes which have been made in the law have improved
it, but has left some sections conflicting, which should be rectified
by further legislation. In my opinion, the central school system
should be abolished, because it is so complicated and expensive that
it is entirely disregarded. The duties of county superintendent
should be specific md not general. He should have the power to re-
voke certificates granted teachers. The time of service shoul be ex-
tended to more than sixty days, and the per diem fixed by law. Great
interest is manifested in education, and great efforts are being made
to have better school houses and teachers.
LIVINGSTON.— J. D. Roberts.
The public mind is becoming awake to the great subject of edu-
cation in our county, and a large per cent of our public schools have
made rapid progress during the past year, l^lew school houses are
being built in nearly every congressional township in the county.
The labor performed by the county superintendent, though very
inadequate to the demands of the general welfare of the schools, has
boH X). erood effect in aiding the teacher to impress upon the minds of
\ 95
his employers and pupils the necessity of a united effort, to overcome
the vague and limited ideas that have been entertained of an educa-
tion.
The teachers' institute is one of the best agents to inspire the
teaclier with new life and animation. We have in this county two
weeks in the year devoted to holding institutes, and have succeeded
in securing through your aid, the assistance of some of the best teach-
ers in the State;
We have also some of the county teachers, who are of the first-
class, and are well calculated to honor their profession.
But the great desire of the people to secure cheap teachers, and
in some places to retain all their old school books, regardless of the
classilication of their schools, and their tardiness in purchasing school
furniture, appear to be the greatest obstacles at present in the way of
gtMieral improvements. Our public schools in the county have all
heen open at least four months in the year, and some six.
There appears to be a general dissatisfaction in the count;;r with the
new law, in reference to the mode of collecting the township tax, the
impression is, that the township tlerk should have the collecting of
the whole of the township funds, or not any, and the old mode of three
subdirectors in each suhdistrict, is generally preferred to one.
We think that section 15, of the public school law, providing for
township central schools, does not appear at present to meet- the
wants of people. But if we could have a central county school for
the advanced pupils of the county, under the direction of the county
court, our wants would be better supplied.
MACON.— S. P. VanDoozer.
Educational progress. — ^The interest taken in the public school
the past year, has been as much, if not more, than the year before.
New school houses have sprung up in various parts of the county, and
Macon City has now the best public school building in North Mis-
souri.
Educational work, done by the superintendent^ is meager in com-
parison with what it should nave been. When asked by a county
judge how much time would be necessary to do the work necessary to
be done, I replied three hundred days.
The county court allowed less than one hundred to superintend
between ninety and one hundred schools, to examine teachers and
confer with officers. Is not the law lame at this point, when judges
are ? Competent men for the office of superintendent feel the posi-
tion an undesirable one under the present arrangements, and it is to
be hoped, for the good of the cause of education, that the law will
soon be changed for the better.
Work done by others has been very little. Prof. Green, of Kirks-
ville, did good service in the teachers' institute at Atlanta, and was
highly appreciated by all.
Obstacles in the way. — ^The greatest is high taxes and little money,
and the second is a want of qualifications in teachers. Some of them,
however, are eminently qualified.
All the public schools in the county have been kept open from
three to eight months during the year.
Remarks. — 1 hope the Legislature will appoint a committee of
educational men to put the school law in a better and more proper
shape.

MADISON.— D. Petersok.
The educational progress of our county, from our present statis-
tics, indicate nothing very favorable, though I believe our future pros^
pect is gradually brightening.
The people are becoming considerably aroused to the interest of
edjucation, and the system of common schools generally.
During the last twelve months I have visited nearly every public
school taught in the county, generally examine the pupils, and give
them a short lecture on the elementary principles of our language,
and on topics having a tendency to inspire the children w^ith a desire
to obtain, at least, a good English education. I have also organized a
number of subdistricts, and two townships in which no public schooh
have been taught since the commencement of the late war, and en-
deavored to reason the school officers out of the idea of having
schools taught in the kind of school houses generally used in onr
county.
We have had a few select schools of a common grade, and gene-
rally produced satisfactory results, 'considering the shortness ot their
duration. Some efforts have been made to rear up a college in this
part of Missouri, and indeed the indications were once favorable for
its ereotion in this place (Fredericktown\ but it turned out to be '^all
talk and no cider,'? as it invariably will be in a place where the peo-
ple are too niggardly to build even a public school house. I am far
from repudiating the idea of building a college, but I think the idea
of having one here, whilst we are destitute of a common school house,
is ridiculous and reprehensible.
The certificates given to teachers this year were all second grade,
but few of our teachers being able to expound the English alphabet
thoroughly. This is saying a good deal, but it is nevertheless trae,
and I furthermore find it true, that when we find a teacher who under-
stands the elementary principles, we find one generally competent to
teach most, if not all, of the English branches.
The old fogy or aristocratic principle prevailing in many parts of
the country, disallowing, or rather grudgingly allowing the children
of poor parentage equal privileges in the school room with those
whose parents chance to be in more affluent circumstances, is one
grand obstacle impeding the progress of education in our countv,
especially in our immediate vicinity. Doubtless the chief cause why
FredericKtown is minus a school house, may be with much truth at-
tributed to this gigantic evil. We have some men, very good men
too, who are aniuous to donate their thousands to construct a magni-
ficent college as a nucleus around which the affluent youth can clus-
ter, who would also spend their additional thousands in feeing law-
yers and witnesses to repudiate the common school law, which makes
it obligatory on them to pay a small pittance as a tax to aid in educat-
ing the poor orphan, hence the influence of the opulent is a mighty
current against which the friends of popular education have to strug-
gle.
The ipjudicious manner of distributing the school funds, also op-
erates greatly to the prejudice of our common school system. I would,
therefore, in regard to tnis matter, beg leave to make a few sugges-
tions to our next General Assembly, now soon to convene.
You are apprised of the fact that many townships, and conseauent-
ly many subdistricts, receive ample means to continue their schools,
and that, too, independent of any special tax« for the term of six
niont.bfl in the year; whilst others, burthened with a grievous tax, can-
87
not continue their schools over three or four months, being compelled
to employ the most inferior teachers at that. Our present system ren^
dering this unavoidable, I see no impropriety in so changing the law
|ts to give an equal amount of the township funds arising from the
sale of the sixteenth section. A moment's reflection will develop the
propriety of this change. For example^ here is our township, sparsely
inhabited, in which it is impossible to organise more than two sub-
districts, with forty scholars each. The proceeds of the sixteenth sec-
tion yields them a maximum- income of $80 only; admitting the in-
come from other sources to equal this^ the entire amount would be
$16D, as the wages of two teachers, for four months each, the people
being too poor and thinly settled, as is invariably the case in town-
ships of this character, to continue their schools by subscription. But
enjoining us is another township, the sixteenth section of which yields
an income of from $800 to $l,OuO annually, in addition to which, it re-
ceives from other souroes a similar amount, making, in the aggregate,
some §1,800 or $2,000, an amount more than sufficient for all educa-
tional purposes, not excluding even the central schools. The citizens
are wealthy, and said township densely settled, hence abundantly
able, and generally willing, to keep open good select schools all the
year round, independent of the public funds; whereas, according to
the present system of distribution, the former township, where the
people are needy ani unable, as to means, as well as in point of num-
bers, to continue their schools longer than two months, and, owing to
the paucity of their children, can nave no school at all, unaided by
the school fund, get a mere pittance as its moiety. <
The object ot the public school system is to educate the masses,
and especially those who are unable to educate themselves. The
present arrangement, however, is a prostitution of the grand, noble,
and original design — taking the township funds from the dependent
orphan, and lavishing it upon the opulent and independent. Itis vain
to argue thai the child in the one township has no right to the funds
arising from the sale of the school lands in any other township, be-
cause the sixteenth section of every township was reserved for educa-
tional purposes, is a gratuity, ^. «., for the purpose of establishing a
free school system throughout the State. Hence the school lands in
Dunklin or Pemiscot are, of right and justice, as much the property
of the child in Atchison county, as the land in the latter county itself,
and vioe versa. This being an incontrovertible fact, the only fair and
liberal mode of distribution is to merge the township funds into a
general or State fund, to be equally apportioned among all the sub-
districts within the State, proper regard being had to central or grad-
ed flchools.
The achool funds, regardless of the source whence derived, should
n^yer be distributed according to the number of children, because it
reauires just as large a salary to pay the wages of a teacher who,
serves in a subdistrict containing but forty children, as it does to pay-
tiie ^wa^res of the one serving in another subdistrict containing eighty
children. Hence the present impropriety of giving double the amount
^f jxxan^y to the latter, than that received by the former, except in
cases when the childrens' attendance is sufficiently laige to render-
the services of an assistant necessary, in the event of which an extra i
annropriation should be made, sufficient for this em,ergency.
^-^ "Virith a fe^ exceptions, all the public schools within the county-
fia.ve been kept open the three months, and most of th^em four monthei,,
during the current year.

MARION-J. W. Aters.
1. Educational progress in the county. — ^The educational pro
ffress of Marion county is exhibited by the appearance of new, com-
fortable school houses in several districts, and the liberal estimates
generally made for improvements and teachers' wages. The city of
Hannibal, now well organized, is sustaining excellent public schools.
which are truly a credit to the board of education, which has estab-
lished and maintained them in the face of many difficulties, and mucii
opposition, as well as to the corps of teachers who have labored so
faithfully and efficiently. Every one who has had an eye on HanDi*
bal for years past, must admit that a most noble advance in edoca-
tional progress has been accomplished by means of the proviaions of
the public school law.
2. Educational work done hy county superintendent,— l^he eiio-
cational work done by the county superintendent is such as makei
but little show, yet I may say that the county superintendent of Ma-
rion county has accomplished some good, by a personal influence r.t
the teachers, generally, throughout the county; by rendering aidaDi
instruction to school officers; dv organizing teachers' institutes; h
convening the school officers of the county to j^iscuss various topi:
of interest to the schools, generally; bv visiting and encoDrapE?
schools (both teacher and pupils), ana by exerting an influence
among the citizens in favor of the public school system, and defen
ing the school law against the attacks of its opposers. But it neri
not be expected that the county superintendent will do what is ei- |
pected of him, and what he ought to do, while (as at present) scarce J |
one-fifth of his time is allowed nim for his various official duties. 3H |
men are so constituted, thai, a secondary occupation does not enli'^
the zeal and energy of the mind.
After nearly three years' experince as counter superintendent. 1
am thoroughly convinced that the duties, by law assigned to theconntr
superintendent^ are worthy of the zeal and energy of a man of to
business capacity, and I would suggest that, instead of sixty days, at
least one hundred and fifty days be>llowed to county superinteodentN
Much of the work now done by county clerks might be turned over
to county superintendents.
8. Educational work done hy other agencies. — ^The teachers' inft>
tute has accomplished a great deal of good. At our last session, bell
in Palmyra, last June, besides the benefit of the instruction to cor
teachers, we had quite a concourse of the friends of education an^
public schools. Addresses, delivered at the court bouse^ to the citi-
zens, by George P. Beard, Esq., and Mgjor J. B. Merwin, of St Louis^
were not without telling effect in favor of education and pu^^^^
schools. The presence and aid of the State Superintendent and As-
sistant State Superintendent ot Public Schools, had a good effect^ both
with teachers and citizens. I cannot do justice without mentioning
garticularly. the work and influence of Rev. Dr. Corby n, of St Panl^
oUege, ana Rev. Mr. Rhoades, of Bethel College, both of whoci
labored faithfully for the interests of the county institute.
4. Qualifications of teachers are generally fair.
5. Obstacles in the way of improvement. — ^The chief obstacles I
have observed, are the prejudices among the peoi)le on account ot
political differences, and a few old fogy ideas still in existence ; but
Doth these causes are fast vanishing, and the future looms up brightly.

6. All the public whools in the cauniy, except one, have been.
kept open at least three months daring the year, and, in a large major-
ity of the districts, we have had schools from four to eight months.
McDONALD.-J. a Sampson.
There has been a commendable progress, in educational matters,
in this county, during the past year.
A goodly number of log buildings have been put up throughout
the county, for school house purposes — the voluntary contributions of
the people of the resj^ective sabdietricts.
The county superintendent has visited the various neighborhoods
and districts of the county, and has counseled and advised with the
school officials as to school matters generally.
He has held no teachers' institute, there not being teachers
enough in the countv to organize one.
He has delivered no educational lectures, the people being in
more need of school funds than school lectures.
Teachers are few, and indifferently qualified.
The obstacles inthe way of improvement are, la<5k of school funds,
want of competent teachers, and the general inefficiency of school
officials.
Five public schools have been kept open^ at least three months
during the past year.
MERCER.— W, Adaxs.
It sives me ^eat pleasure to make a report upon the general
educational interests of the county, which, contrasted with the status
of last year, shows a very marked progress in almost every respect,
a progress, none the less strongly pronounced, that it is due, I am
eorry txi confess, only in slight degree, to the labors of the county
superintendent. Silently, but rapidly, during the past eighteen
months, the popular ideas of common school education, its scope,
benefits and the means by which it should be obtained, have been
undergoing radical changes. Juster and more liberal views obtain,
and the people everywhere within our limits, are found taking a
deeper and far more active interest in their local educational affairs.
I can rive no more striking illustration of this most gratifying progress,
than the instructions I received during this fall, almost daily, from not
only local directors, but the people in a great many districts, in regard
to persons who might apply for certificates, to enable them toteach
their district schools, ^to put them through. We want none but good
teachers in onr districts. We request you to be sure that the qualifi-
cations are ^ood.^
In addition, far less gmmbling at the amount of tax to be paid
bas been observed than was noticeable in the collection of the tax
for 1867. And yet, it has been more burdensome this year, as a gen-
eral rule, tiian it was then, there having been more new school houses
bailL and better salaries paid teachers. ^
The current year has witnessed the erection of twenty new school
booses. The oat^oppin^ of progressive ideas are veiy noticeable in
100
their construction. They are all frame baildings, and nniformly good.
Some are even elegant in their external appearance, being painted
and tastefully ornamente'd with cornice, while ail are comfortably ar-
ranged internally, and very well adapted to the purposes for which
they were built, seated with good desk seats, and liberally supplied
with blackboards.
In reference to the latter, the fact that teachers, participating in
the general manifestation of increasing interest, have been sedulously
qualifying themselves for a more intelligent discharge of the arduous
auties of their pro^'ession, gives ample assurance that they will not
remain simply articles of ornament, but will industriously be devoted
to their proper uses. Besides the blackboards, quite a number of dis-
tricts have supplied their school rooms with much needed apparatus,
outline maps, school tablets, numeral frames, cubical blocks and
terrestrial globes, and the coming year, I have no doubt, will see these
necessary aids to thorough teaching in nearly every new school house
in the county. I am thus prolix on the gratifying general edacational
progress and its evidences, because it is almost exclusively the result
of the sober reflection of the people, assisted but very little by other
agencies, and in the face of obstacles of a very annoying character,!!
not of great magnitude.
The work done by the county superintendent being* confined
chiefly to conferences and consultations with boards of education and
district directors and in the examination of teachers. With a very
small margin indeed for the visiting of schools, exhausting the tioie
placed by law at his disposal. This has been owing to the obstacles
above referred to. And of these, the most prominent, and perhap*
the only real obstacle is the school law itself. This may seem a wild
assertion made of a school law in a county where, though subject to
its operations, decided educational progress has been reported, lot
wild as it may seem, it is none the less truthful on that account. The
genius of the law in its general ideas, the magnificent system it incor-
porates, the means it provides lor the advancement of the true in-
terests of education in our noble *'Free Missouri," are certainly grand,
admitted by all. But while all this is justly admitted of the law ass
whole, claimed by nearly all classes of the people of the law as whole
it is also claimed, and even a cursory examination of the law will
establish ample grounds for the claim, that its details are so compli-
cated, many of its provisions so conflicting, so difficult to harmoniie
With each other, susceptible of so widely difi'erent constractions, and
the means provided for its execution, for familiarizing the people
with it, for, in short, placing it in practical working operation, so sin-
gularljr vague and inadequate, as, in the vexatious annoyances to
which it gives rise, and the uncertainties in regard to the proper dis-
charge of the duties, created in the minds of the officers upon whom
they are imposed, to act as a check to the progress which might be
evoked so decided, as to be apparent to the most casual observer in
contact with its every day workings in country localities. Permit
one illustration : minor dimculties every day arise in the discharge of
a district director's duties, some of them involving a degree or respon-
sibility, all affecting the neighborly relations of the director with the
people of his district. Anxious to conform to law and prevent un-
{deasant discord, the director comes to the county superintendent,
ays his difficulties before him, and asks his advice on the meaning of
the law. The sui)erintendent gives him his advice honestly, careful
to state that his dicta amounts to nothing more than a mere opiDioo.
possessing no legal weight whatever, ana no more valuable than that
101
of any other person competent to form an intelligent opinion, and
who has given the law a careful study. He goes to the lawyers, who
diiter widely among themselves, and, after spending a day, perhaps, of
valuable time, in the .attempt to set himself right, is no nearer a real
solution of his difficulties than he was before such attempt was made.
The result is obvious. The perplexed director returns to his district
discouraged, his ardor dampened, and the educational interests of the
district sympathizing with his discouragement and dejection, a^e
compelled to suffer. This is not an illustration drawn from imaginary
facts, but a recital from the history of almost daily experiences.
The details of the law simplified, so that the officers who should
execute it, shall be at no loss in its interpretation; its conflicting
sections repealed or harmonized, and adequate means provided to
carry out and to develop into familiar working, to practicalize its
general plan, by removing every obstacle tq rapid and permanent pro^
gress will leave nothing to be desired.
You will see by the tabular statement herewith enclosed, that
our public school fund, both township and county,is in a very healthy
condition. With amount received from the State fund, it has formed
a very large item in means to defray the expenses of teachers' salaries,
a small tax only having been levied to keep open the three months'
school which has been taught in every district in the county. In
quite a number of districts, school have been kept open six months, in
one or two as much as nine months, and next year it is confidently
expected that tho six months' term will be adopted as the general
rule.
MILLER. — H. S. BuKLiNGAMR
In reply to your official circular, I herewith transmit you my
annual report for this county :
The good citizens of this county are beginning to manifest a laud*
able zeal in the cause of popular education and progress. A number
of new school buildings are in course of construction, and within the
next year our county will be dotted with a respectable number of
substantial and comfortable houses for educational purposes, furnished
with modern improvements and keeping pace with the age.
I have endeavored to labor and use my influence in favor of pro-
gress, but have succeeded only to a limited extent. The greatest
obstacles in the way of progress and improvement are an empty
treasnpy and '*old foficyism."
I have granted tnirty-three certificates, in all, within the lastvear.
Seven for two years, five males, and two females, twenty-four lor one
year, sixteen males and eight females, and two for six months. The
qualificationsof teachers ranking considerably higher in the last year,
a number combining a high grade of scholarship with experience and
abilitv in the art of teaching.
We yet have a few subdistricts unorganized, but so far as I can
now speak advisedly, our organized districts have all afforded the re*
quired amount of public schools, and a number of sub districts have
extended schools to four, five and six months within the year.
We have two flourishing colored schools taught by experienced,
able and efficient teachers.
I received your plan of State normal schools this morning, and
heartil J* approve ol the same, and will use any efibrt m my power tc
advance same. " •
102
MONROE.— A. E. Gobr
We have, in Monroe county, seventy-eight school haases. Of
these, fifty-five are Irame, nineteen are log, and four are brick. A
large number of these are very .comfortable, heated by stoves, well
seated, and provided with some farnitare. Some are supplied with
globes, maps and charts.
• Our teachers, as a class, are only moderately qualified. Some
few possess superior qualifications, and would be creditable to their
profession in any locality. So long, however, as the four months' sys-
tem continues, we cannot expect teachers, as a general rule, of supe-
rior or of even respectable attainments. For this reason, being em-
ployed only four months in the year, teachers, of necessity, embark
in other enterprises, and if that in which they engage pays better
than teaching, they will, of course, continue in it. The consequence
is, that every season, a district has to hunt up a new teacher, and the
chances are that, among so large a number of floating pretenders,
many of them will get situations. Now, if our schools continued
eight or ten months in the year f and an investment for this purpose
would pay better, would yield a larger dividend, than any otner dis-
position a community could make of the same amount of money), we
would have, in every county, professional teachers, who would devote
their whole time and energies to their employment, who would take
a pridein their profession, and use every eflbrt to qualify themselves
for the proper discharge of their duties. This question should be
pressed upon our lefi:islature. We owe our children an education; it
is all the most ol us will be able to give them. It is the only way in
which we can properly fit and qualify them for the great contest in
life which awaits them. We cannot do it by a four month school. I
would, therefore, suggest such a change in our school law as tore-
quire at least an eight or ten month school to be kept up every year.
Three directors in a district, would be better than one.
The provisions of the new law, in regard to the collection ol
levies made on districts, are not so good, in my opinion, as the old
law.
Our institute is getting along poorly. We have had bat one
meeting during the year, and then but few attended. I would sug-
gest such a change in the law as to relieve teachers, as much as pos-
sible, of the expense and loss of time which they incur in attending
an institute, and to make it imperative upon them to attend.
In regard to the education of colored children,! would state that
we have now in successful operation four schools for negro children.
This number will not likely be increased.
The suggestions you make in regard to normal schools are good.
The people, however, are not y^ prepared for such a number, and
are unwilling to incur the expenses necessarily attending their estab-
lishment. Indeed, we shall not be ready for normal schools until we
are willing to continue our common schools longer than four months
in the year. I suppose the design of a normal school is to provide us
with professional teachers, but now can a professional teacher live on
four months' employment during the year? At the end of the first
school, he woula most likely engage in some other enterprise, and
that would be the last we would hear of him as a teacher. Induce
our le^s^islature to require an eight or ten month school in every dis-
trict, then normal schools will be a necessity. Then there will be an
inducement for young gentlemen and ladies to qualify themselves for
professional teacherir. They will then have assurance of constant and
103
Frofitable employment in their protession. Until that time, however,
doubt the economy of incurring much expense in the education ot
teachers, who« if they continued in their profession, would be forced
to the necessity of seeking employment in other StAtes,
MONTGOMERY.-J. 0. Elus.
In compliance with your request, I have the honor to submit the
following report of the condition of ttie educational interests of this
county. As it is always the case, that any innovation upon the old
and established customs and rules of order — no matter how forcibly
the advantages of a change may appear to some — ^is fought as bitterly
as a stroke at the heart of our American eagle, by some of the best
citizens, so the establishment of the new common schoolsystem upon
a firm basis, in our county, has, in some cases, been deferred, and the
interests of the law been frustrated. But, I am happy to be able to
say, that as the beauties of the new plan unfold, and its objectionable
features are chan&:ed by our legislators, rendering it more comprehen-
sive, good and industrious men are beginning to come forward, and
show a willingness to discharge the duties of the school offices, which
they have, heretofore, rather shunned.
There seems to be a general desire, on the part of the people, to
have the schools kept open as long as possible, without excessive
taxation, and to support and encourage the boards of directors in the
several townships, although there are some '^old foffies," who claim
that the old way was the best, and fight everything like improvement
as a waste of ^time and money, not warranted by the necessities of
the times — wlio, in short, oppose everything except " free trade," and
grumble if they have to pay a dollar school tax.
That the people are beginning to see the beneficial results attend-
ing a more liberal educational organization, is evident from tl\e man}''
new and, in some cases, commodious buildings which have been
erected in the county during the past summer, for school purposes.
These buildings, in almost every case, are of a character to reflect
credit upon the liberal feelinfi;s of their communities, and afford
ample room for the comfortable accommodation of their youth,
although, in some of the more backward subdistricts. the eye is still
forced to meet the dilapidated and cheerless establisnment wherein
the children of a nei^nborhood huddle together, osten.^^ibly for the
purpose of having instilled into their minds the elements of an ( du-
cation, or, in other words, where they are expected to learn to '* read,
and write, and cypher,'' but where they, in realitv, have their hands
full if they succeed in keeping the old "ten plate'' stove w;irm.
These instances, however, are few, and, under the present pressure,
will soon have to give way to comfortable houses.
I regret very much that the records of this office afford no in-
formation in regard to the ''educational work done by the county
superintendent/' or " other agencies," during the past year. A tc ach-
ers' institute, (district), was held in this county, I thiuK under the aus-
Eices of the State Superintendent which I think was quite a success,
ut of its details I am uninformed.
The principal obstacles in the way of improvement, I would con-
ceive to be: First, objectionable features in the school laws, and
second, in a lack of a uniform series of books. In fact I believe that
104
the second obstacle may well be considered as under the head of the
first, for any attempt to establish a uniform series^ without the assist-
ance of the law, will be attended with a great amount of trouble and
dissatisfaction. I do not propose to offer any advice or suge^estions in
relation to the school law, but will leave this to those better ac-
quainted with the making of laws, and will content my-eelf with the
hope that the desired changes may be brought about, and the edu-
cational interests of our great State, be thereby greatly enhanced.
MORGAN.— T. TtJKNBULL.
It affords me pleasure to report, that the majority of the schools
in the county have made favorable progress, and at present evince a
greater degree of efficiency, than at the time of my last annual re-
port. Some of the causes that have conduced to this marked im-
provement, are quite palpable to the ordinarjr observer. Our improved
school system, as amended and simplified in the ^ School Act, ap-
proved March 25th, 1868," is exerting a salutary influence upon our
schools. The cause of education has received a new impetus thereby.
School Iloxises. — ^I'here have been seven new school houses
erected in this county since my last report. The board of education
of Versailles, have erected a large, commodious school house, finished
in the best manner, combining beauty and comfort^ an ornament not
only to the village, but to the town and county.
Quali^ations of Teachersr^l am pleased to say that the stan-
dard of qualifications of teachers to-day, as a whole, is much higher
than in years past: but still far below what it should be.
The greatest obstacle in the way of obtaining a class of teachers
of the highest order of qualifications, is the constant demand for
" cheap.teachers," true, in many districts, and the number is increas-
ing; wages are a secondary consideration; but too often the lower
grade of teachers are employed, to the exclusion of the more compe-
tent.
Examinations, — Examinations have been for the most part, writ-
ten. Every effort has been made to make them thorough and search
ing, and as fair as possible. A careful record of results is kept par-
ticularly of deficiencies. Each applicant who is refused, is fully
informed of the reason for such refusal. Those who receive licences
are also informed of the nature and extent of their failures, and noti-
fiied that unless the next succeeding examination shows improvement,
Uiey will be rejected. The more effectually to secure rapid improve
ment, certificates are granted for but short periods of time.
Official Duties. — ^The most onerous duties, are those of traveling
over a large territory, and over many very rough roads, to visit the
several schools in the" county. I have endeavored to visit each school
at least twice during the year, but hfiVe tailed in several instances,
because the term of some of the schools bas been short, and the term
having expired before I was able to reach the school, and therefore
only visited the district. What I have named is only a small part of
the work performed ; but I forbear to specify farther, as you are well
advised of other duties performed belonging to this ofiSce.
The present school law imposes many grave responsibilities, and
a vast amount of labor upon the county superintendent, while at the
aame time it very narrowly limits his power and authority. He may
105
work patiently and faithfully to promote the interests of education,
and inspire the people ^ilh the same zeal and enthusiasm that he
feels ; he may visit the schools often and regularly; he may warmly and
eloquently exhort the pupils to be punctual in their daily attendance,
to keep their desks and school room neat and orderly ; and while he
is doing all .this, the house in which they are so strongly exhorted to
learn habits of tidiness, pnnctuality and order, may '* by reason of the
infirmities of age," be just ready to topple down upon their innocent
heads; and the seats so rude and uncomfortable, as to be better
adapted to some felon's cell, as model instruments X)f torture. And
yet the superintendent can only consult and advise I Experience and
practice show conclusively, that the authority and power of the county
superintendent are far too limited. The time allowed him is too short
*for the amount of labor required, and should be extended to two hun-
dred days.
Normal sohooU.— True with some, the first school is the best
school but this an exception, not the rule. We have our medical col-
leges the better to prepare our young men for the profession of medi-
cines ; law colleges lor the profession of law ; commercial colleges, for
accountants, and more recently, agricultural colleges for farmers. All
agree that these are very desirable and necessary. Why is it not then
equally desirable and imjwrtant, that means should be provided
to fit voung men and women for. the profession of teaching? We
hope the Legislature this winter will authorize the establishment of
at least six normal schools in this State. We have not organized a
teachers' institute yet, on account of having so few teachers.
Allow me in conclusion to express my thanks to you, and all
others who have aided me in the performance of my duties.
NODAWAY.— J. N. Albin.
In my annual letter for the year 1868, brevity will be the chief
feature.
The educational progress of the county finds its parallel only in
the rapid improvements of the preceding year.
The labors of the county superintendent might have been more
efficient, had the law makers, in the discharge of their duties, granted
to him more time, sixty davs being about one-third the time requisite
to perform what is required of him by law. Beyond what is already
required of the county superintendent, he should have a general su-
Eervision over the buildings, seating and furnishing of school houses,
ocal directors having been educated in the eld log house, have at
best but an imperfect and limited knowledge of the proper propor-
tions of a room in which to teach school, and much less do they know
about the most <5onvenient method of seating such a room. Thou-
sands of dollars have been uselessly expended that might have been
profitably applied, if some competent person had been employed to
take charge of the hxmdredsot new houses that have been built ibr
school purposes in the last two years. One of the great obstacles to
improvement is, that school rooms are frequently entirely too small.
The style of seating often more inconvenient than the old-long-slab-
seat with no back. Such houses and seats must ultimately be thrown
aside as useless property* We are lacking competent teachers*
106
Schools should be kept open eight months in the year, so as to secure
to all children of school age at least four months of iiistruction, and
furnish employment to those who make teaching their profession.
PEMISCOT.— Sandford Jackson.
This county is not making much progress in the way of educa-
tion.
I have visited nearly every organized school district in the coun-
ty, have left the necessary blanks and instructions, also the school
laws furnished me with the officers of said school districts. I regret to
say that in some cases these blanks have not been filled as required
by law. The people seem anxious for schools, but fail to take the
necessary steps to secure them, the benefits of the public money.
No other agencies save the agency of private enterprise within
the districts, and the small pittance of public moneys doled out, have
been at work in this county in furtherance of the cause of education.
As to qualification of teachers, I can only say this, now and then,
a good scholar, interested in the education of his own children, as well
as those of his neighbors, will consent to 4;each a school for a period
of three or four months during the year. We have no teachers who
have qualified themselves properly, m any State institution or normal
school. The floating applicants for positions as school teachers, are
of an inferior order. Some very inferior.
The obstacles in the way of improvement, are various. Some of
which are, the unwillingness of the people to submit to a school tai.
Thev prefer a voluntary subscription. There is a lack ot unanimity
on the part of those interested in schools. Another cause is, the Terv
small amount of State school money which is apportioned to each
district, generally not more than enough to pay a^ood teacher his sal-
arv for a month. Public money in this county is a small item ; an-
other cause is sometimes a want of efficient district officers. In most
districts those persons who would make good officers, are proscribed
by the Constitution. Proscription is the bane of Pemiscot coanty;
and it is felt in the cause of education as much, if not more, than id
any other department in the county.
In consequence of the reasons stated in the last answer, there
have been but few schools kept open three months daring the past
year, in this county. There are more subscription or select schools
in the county, than public schools.
In general, the school districts in this county have school grounds
conveyed to trustees for the use oi the district, on which in most cases
is erected a log school house. Benches and desks are rude. Now and
then a blackboard may be seen in a school house.
No school apparatus can be found in our school houses, save slaU$
andpeneils.
No public examinations.
Six male teachers examined.
No female teachers examined.
Two male applicants examined and rejected.
Four certificates issued to male teachers.
Two school visitors.
Owing to the small number of colored people in this county, we
have not enough in any school district to support a school.
107
PERRY.— D. W. Ckow.
The progress of the educational interests of the county have not
been satisfactory. However, some advancement has been made in a
few very important partict^lars, viz : School houses are in a better
condition than formerly, several good buildings have been erected
during the last year, and some old ones have been repaired. The new
school house in Perry ville, is a large and well arranged building for
school purposes.
Provisions for the support of schools are more liberal, and the
schools are becoming more efScient, in many instances, this, however,
applies to those school districts where an interest is manifested in the
cause of education, for on the other hand, some have made no provi-
sions whatever, nor do they seem to be disposed to avail themselves
of any privileges or advantages of the system of public schools.
2. I have held five ^^teachers' meetings'' during the year, visited
thirty schools, and have examined and lectured each one visited. I
have supplied, every board of education, and subdistrict director with
the school law, together with the forms and blanks necessary for
making all reports and returns required by law. I have held public
examinations on specified days, for the convenience of applicants, and
private examinations at any time.
Some boards of education have done much to advance the cause
of education in their respective districts. The countv clerk has been
very prompt in the performance of the duties devolving upon him,
pertaining to public schools.
The qualifications of teachers, althou£:h below the requisite stan-
dard, are good, and would do very well if thev possessed more inde-
pendence and professional pride, but as it is, the standard will not im-
prove rapidly, from the fact that few have these essential qualifica-
tions.
Obstacles in the way of improvement are as follows : Too many
"under bidders" among the teachers, and too little interest among the
people, too much authority invested in the directors, and no provision
for compelling or restricting his action, too much recklessness in the
manner in which estimates are made out and levied for school pur-
poses, and too little benefit derived therefrom, to much change in the
school law.
The schools have been kept in operation for from four to six
months during the year.
PHELPS.— F. D. Morgan.
1. Educational progress in the county. — Has been very good.
From an organization of four districts eighteen months ago, we nave
now in working order twenty-seven subdistricts, and all the townships
are organized but one.
2. Educational work done ly the County Superintendent. — My
work has been chiefly (and object also), to get the county well or-
ganized, and have succeeded very well.
3. Educational work done hy other .agencies. — ^The private
schools are preparing good teachers for our public schools.
4. Qualifications of Tea^hersr—'Soi very good, have been using
the best material offered.
108
5. Obstacles in the way of improvement, — ^They are so numerous
I hardly know where to commence. First. The strong and deep root-
ed prejudice against free school, and the prevailing ideas, you educate
a man and you make a rascal of him. Second. School officers coin*
ciding with the aforesaid views, refuse to do their duty, with few ex-
ceptions. There id a continual warfare going on against the public
school interest. Another reason is, the county court will not pay the
county superintendent any thing for his services. I have received
for my services for two years, $360 in county warrants, worth 60 cents
p>er dollar, and have done over two hundred days work during the
time.
6. Have all the Public Schools been kept open three months dur-
ing the year t — ^They have not for the reason, if the teacher's did not
use Cobb's Speller and McOuffey's oldest Reader, and adopt the old
plan of teaching, he was turned off. There has been only one school
organized under the special act, and but one short session taught, in
fact, there is such a bitter prejudice here against public schools that
it will be some time before they ^et into good working order in this
county.

PIKE.— S. D. Chasb.
One year ago there was not in the county of Pike, a single public
school house .suitable to teach school in, but the influence exerted by
the enactment of what is called the ^4iew school law" (laws passed in
1867-8), has been during the past year very marked and beneficial.
It has caused a generous emulation, and suitable buildings for the ac-
commodation of nearly all of our schools are now in contemplation,
and many have already been completed. The report of the school
officers this year have not been very prompt, and several organiza-
tions and building of new houses have taken place since the time for
report.
The furniture of the new houses are all "patent graduated hinge
seat desks," which, in my opinion, are better adapted to our public
schools than any other seats and desks now in use.
We have given certificates to eighty-five teachers, forty-nine
males and thirty-six females ; rejected seventeen, seven females and
ten males.
We have held three sessions of the teachers' institute this year,
the first on the 12th of February, the second on the l^th of June, the
third on the 13th of October, each one continued for four days. At
the first about fifty teachers were in attendance, the other twx) were
not as well attended.
POLK— J. 0. NODURFT.
1. Educational progress in the county ^ — ^The township reports
are flattering. The public schools in the county are prospering finely.
109
The people are becoming more earnestly engaged in the interest ot
the youths of our country. They are beginning lo realize that the
future destiny of our State will depend upon the education of the ris-
ing generation;
A better class of school houses are being built, and furnished with
better furniture for the convenience of children.
2. Educational work done hy the county superintendent — I have
visited forty-four ^chools during the present year, and found ihem in
a flourishing condition. I found the children in every school all aglow
with zeal for an education. In every school I visited, I delivered
them a lecture on the subject of "Popular Education," which they
seemed to appreciate very highly.
3. Educational work done hy other agencies. — Many of the school
officers are doing their work nobly. Others have done the best they
probably could, under the circumstances. Eight of the township
clerks failed to file their reports with the county clerk, or in ray office,
hence our reports are meager. Efficient sub-directors, in many in-
stances, procured more than four months' school for their sub-districts.
4. Quali/ications of teachers. — The grade of qualifications of
teachers is fifty per cent, better this year than it was last. Female
teachers, in many instances, excel male teachers. Our teachers are
improving in school government.
5. Obstacles in the way of improvement. — .
1. Poorly furnished scnool houses.
2. Too many barely passable teachers, who can afibrd to teach
for low wages.
3. Inactive and careless subdirectors.
4. Inefficient school fund.
5. In many instances, the school law is not explicit enough.
6. Have all the public schools in the county been kept open at
least three months during the year f — Nearly all of the public schools
have been kept open from three to six months during the year.
7. I have spent seventy days in the service of public schools.
Our teachers' institute held two sessions this year, but received
no funds from the State or the county for its support.
PUTNAM— M. V. LooMis.
Our schools are of a decidedly better character than they were
last Year, both in thoroughness and interest
In regard to work done b^ the county superintendent, I must con-
fess it has not been as extensive as might have been desired. I have
done some little toward having our schools conducted more thorough-
ly and practically. I have succeeded also, to some extent, in remov-
ing the old-fogyism of imitation and mechanical teaching.
We have been greatly assisted by the professors of the North Mis-
souri normal school, who have visited our institutes, and have given
us valuable instruction in the theory and practice of teaching, and
other subjects connected with educational interests.
The qualifications of our teachers are much better than they were
last year.
I presume all the schools have been kept open three months dur-
ing the year, but so many districts have failed to report that I cannot
answer definitely.

RALLS— Wm. D. Bishop.
When I first assumed the duties of school superintendent for Ralls
county. I was much embarrassed at the condition of the school inter
est of this county. I found the whole free school system very imper-
fectly organized under the various acts of the Legislature. The school
directors, heretofore elected by the few who possessed the qualifica-
tion of voters, were, for the greater part, ill-suited^for that important
and responsible trust.
I hope you will use your influence in our next Legislature to have
the school law amended so that all who are interested in our schools
can have a voice in all school matters. Sufficient care had not been
taken in the selection of competent teachers, and the school houses
were mostly dilapidated, and unfit to be occupied. In the discharge
of my official duties, I have endeavored to remedy these evils, and in-
fuse a new spirit into the educational interest of this county. It was
apparent to my mind, that the first prerequisite to the successful ope-
ration of the free school system, which has been so wisely established
by our laws, was to procure the services of competent teachers, teach-
ers whose educational acquirements fitted them for the office of im-
parting knowledge to those under their charge. Without the assist-
ance of competent and experienced teachers in our free schools, the
munificence and humane policy of the Legislature will utterly fail to
accomplish its object — the education of the masses.
A grave, though popular error, abounds in our country on the
subject of the quali6cation of teachers. It seems to be generally con-
ceded that any one who has not proceeded beyond the mere* rudi-
ments of education is as competent to instruct the youth in the pri-
mary branches, as those whose minds have been expanded by an
extended course of study. The education of youth should be entrust-
ed to those whose education, intelligence and moral worth fit them for
that high and important office.
When ^ commenced my duties, I found the great msgority of
teachers wholly incompetent to instruct, even in the primary branches.
Mv object was to get rid of them as soon as possible. With much
labor, 1 have succeeded, even beyond my expectations ; but there re-
mains much to be done yet. I apprehend that the services of the
most competent teachers could be procured for our schools, but the
small salaries are inadequate to secure the services of professional
teachers. I have endeavored to remedy this growing evil in this
county, and now the people of old Ralls are beginning to realize the
importance of high-priced teachers. Heretofore salaries ranged from
$15 to $lO per month. Now we are givina: from $40 to $75 per month.
The change is having a most salutary effect. Incompetent teachers
are gradually growing out of fashion, and men of ability and compe-
tency are supplying their places.
In my selection of directors I have had but one object in view,
and that was to secure the services of those whose qualifications fitted
them for the discharge of their high responsibility. In this, I have
been successful to my entire satisfaction.
Our school houses have been repaired, and the grounds much im*
S roved, in the last year. Also, quite a number of new houses have
een erected, others are in course of construction, and, before lonsr,
we shall have little complaint' for the want * of comfortable acfaoiJ
houses.
HI
RANDOLPH,— Q. F. Rothwell.
In reflecting npon the history of the school year just closed, I find
mnch, not only to repay me for all my ofELcial labors, but also to in-
spire every well-wisher of childhood, and friend of humanity and en-
lightened civilization, with hope for the future.
So far as the happiness and dignity of society are dependent upon
the moral and intellectual culture of ^the rising generation, the Chris-
tian patriot ma^ well take encouragement, and, from tne present
state of prosperity, find an argument to allay something of his anxiety.
The year has been one of uninterrupted progress ; but, like the reign
of peace, it has no history that I can write. I know it; I feel it; I
epjoy it. But the separate facts, each too unimportant in itself to be
caught up and individualized, yet, in their accumulated force, most
clearly speak advancement. So the hurricane may be traced by the
rent forest and roofless houses that mark the way of its destruction,
and the eloquent pen mourns over the homeless suffierer that it has
made wretched; but who takes notice of the silent moisture falling
from *^ heaven upon the place beneath,*' except to say " it rains ;" yet,
the green earth is refreshed by it, the violet drinks it and is glad, and
the tnrush sings when it is over. All I can eay to you is, the "children
go to school." You, yourself better than I, can argue out the results,
m all those pure and benign influences, whose aggregate of benefac-
tions constitute the sum of individual and social nappine8s,.even as in
nature, the smallest and the grandest consequences are alike attribut-
able to one common cause.
"The law that moalda the starting tear,
And bidfl it trickle from its eoarce,
That law preserres the earth a sphere,
And holds the planets in their course."
The great mathematician, revolving in his mind the vast i>ower
of the lever to effiect results in the physical world, exclaimed, in his
fruitless rapture: ^^Dosponetokai ton/cosmon kinaso!^ . But the phi-
losophic educator, studying to move the moral world, to a high and
lofty purpose, and more divine accomplishments, points, with undie-
guised enthusiasm, to jthe children thronging the public schools, and
'replies, " Eureka .'"
This county embraces ten entire and six fractional townships,
sub-divided into sixty-five subdistricts: These all enjoyed a free
school of four months, and in many instances the term was prolonged,
by private subscription, to five, six and even ten months. About
three thousand children were in attendance. The average daily at-
tendance, considering that most of the subdistricts are in the coun-
try, and some of them three or four miles in extent, was very large.
This year the terra of the free schools will most generally go to
the legal limit, six months. Our sixty-five schools are now in opera-
tion, with much larger attendance than formerly, as our annual enu-
meration, to your honor will show, we number about two thousand
more children this than last year, '^with one precinct still to hear
from." In the absence of any extensive immigration,! am at loss how
to account for this unprecedented increase, except upon the supposi-
tion of a zeal for the public schools, or the influence of some other
philosophic principle, unless, indeed, it may, in some degree, be at-
112
I
tributed to my own industry in the discharge of my official duties.
But we, nevartheless, move on harmoniously.
With over two hundred school officers, a revenue of $28,000, spread
upon sixty-five tax books, with sixteen township collectors, having no
power of levy and sale, sent forth to beg revenue like Christian
paupers to implore charity in a thronged city; with sixty-five delin-
quent lists, made out by inexperienced hands, with sixty-five different
settlements to make with the county collector, with more than thirty
contracts to build school houses; with sixty-five teachers, and about
five thousand children, yet, we have never had a law suit, nor a teacher
dismissed, nor a child expelled. Too much praise cannot be bestowed
on officers and patrons, for their devotion to the interests of the
schools and the children. Their efforts, in this behalf, are well de-
serving of public thanks. But in the kind testimpnials of their own
good consciences, they shall find the most enduring reward.
• Our corps of teacners are earnest, industrious and generally very
competent. Some of them stand high as model educators. As a
body, I feel proud of their proficiency. For it is to their qualifications
and faithful effort, at last, we must mainly look for the building up of
the schools. They are the very pillows upon which rest success.
Without good teachers, in vain we make revenue laws or fret the
people with many officers.
This is the Thermopylae where Greece is saved or lost. This de-
fended, all else is safe. This neglected, we but wage a fruitless battle
of shorter or longer duration. For this reason, I have, in the absence
of anything better, labored to make the institute a means of improFe-
ment. I flatter myself that it has not been an entire failure, though,
you must know, it is not very efficient.
At our last session, in October, Messrs. E. Clark, Assistant State
Superintendent, — . Osborne, O. H. Fethers and Professor Ripley, of the
State University, attended, and, by their labors and lectures, contrib-
uted greatly to its success. I feel myself under many obligations to
them for the kindness which led them to add us this service.
Again I say, we have everything to inspirit us. The cause of eda*
cation is in itself worthy the best efforts of the human mind, and the
best wishes of the human heart.
The fact is gratifying; the future is cheerful. Thousands of little
hearts palpitating with the deathless thirst for truth, and thousands of
little palms raised imploringly for the ministration of knowledge,
force on us an argument that cannot be evaded. The dignity of oar
race, the happiness of society, the glory of the State, the ornaments
of civilization, and the utilities of government, all hang suspended on
the right culture and development of the juvenile intellect.
One success but urges to another. We have landed, and burnt
our ships. There is no retreat. Our sword is in the balance, fif
vidua! We have crossed the Rubicon in this conflicts to go whei«
God and our enemies bid us. We conquer or perish. Ambitions,
starry finger points the way, and not on the Hellespont, nor yet on the
Granicus, but only where ocean laves the Orient's farthest shore
will we pause, and that but to weep that there is not another world to
conquer.

RAY.— Guy C. Smith.
I herewith send yon this, my third letter in general report, per-
haps the last officially, with it my thanks for what you have done to
enhance the system of education, under the new law.
And now, the question naturally arises, what have you done, have
vou been filled witn the spirit of your mission, being the nominal
head of the school system of Ray, Missouri. How compare the
school houses with those of former days. I will say, those of former
days are not to be found, excepting a few, which stand as monuments
of a system that once has been. We have now school houses, a sys-
tem of schools, that comport with the spirit and intent of the new lain^
but not to that perfection desirable. Our township organizations. I
believe, are nearly complete, or was, before the last election, and tne
officers have done much to enhance the valuation ol school ]property,
by building comfortable houses, and repairing others and m many
districts, have consulted taste, ease and comfort, not only in the build-
ing and repairing, but in the furnishing.
Our college, has undergone extensive repairs, the exterior is
beautiful and commanding. But few locations in the State can be
found combining more desirable elements as a seat of classical learn*
ing, the interior of it is of such division and construction, as will ac-
commodate a host of students. The social, moral and religious influ- .
ences, which tend to preserve the character of young men and wo-
men, are the graces tnat characterize, not only the teachers, but the
inhabitants of the town. The semins^ry or public school house of the
town has been remodeled and fitted up in a manner, corresponding
with the improvement of the place, giving credit to the worthy and
efficient officers. Colonel Barr and Sheriff Keyburn, these officers
have built a commodious brick building for the freedmen's children,
and since its construction, schools have been kept up nearly all the
time.
A majority of the teachers of this county have shown themselves
worthy the name of teachers, they have labored earnestly to advance
the cause of education, many of them being skilled in their profession,
having a complete knowledge of the teacher's work. I have granted
forty certificates to applicants during the past scholastic year. At
present there is a lacK of efficient and able teachers. The school
directors of this county are more liberal in offering wages than form-
erly, and at the same time more discreet in the selection of their
teachers.
The interest manifested in the education of the colored people
seems to be secondary. The apathy apparent with those who hold to
the sanctity of the ^^ negro bible'' have wrought against the building
of negro school houses and keeping up schools in them* Yet, not-
withstanding the persecution, sites have been selected for building,
while some few have been already built, and schools taught in them.
It is conceived, by many, to be disgraceful to a white teacher to enter
the sanctum of a negro school house with purpose to teach, and it
would be difficult for such a teacher, if known that he had taught a
negro school, to ever afterwards get a situation to teach any other
kind. It is truly embarrassing to officers and teachers. Yet duty
calls, principle calls, and the law calls us to act in this matter and see
that the colored youth have a chance to make known to the world
that he is of the human race, and is entitled to the immunities and
privileges of light and knowledge.

The school law, is being in the main, understood by a majority of
the school officers. Those who do not understand it, but wish a
knowledge of it, had better take the Journal of Education, published
in St. Louis, by J. B. Merwin, a better guide to the school officer in
the discharge of his duties, cannot be found in any other iournal.
And now, I will say of this county, for which 1 have labored the
East two years, that it has no reason to complain, but on the other
and be thankful that it has prospered ; its dozen towns of rapid
growth, its seminaries of learning, its churches built and being erect-
ed, its fertility of soil, and wealth, as marks of improvement and pros-
perity should inspire feelings of gratitude, for the blessing of educa-
tion, one of the chief agencies of all this improvement.
RIPLEY.— W. 0. Webb.
We have advanced but little in the cause of education since mr
last report.
The people, as a general thing, take but little interest in it. Con-
sequently it is very hard for the few to do much by way of advancing
its interest.
I have endeavored so far as I could, to have school organizaUons
throughout the entire county, and to accomplish this. I have appointed
local directors in every township where I could fina men that would
take any interest in the matter at all. I have visited schools, and
observed closely the mode and manner of teachers, in conductine
their schools, and have given them such advice and instruction, as I
thought circumstances required, with but very few exceptions, do I
find schools conducted in a manner, calculated to do any good or
educate anybody. The teachers, themselves, have no education or
qualifications necessary to constitute good teachers, therefore, it is
impossible for them to teach a school, as the light of experience has
•demonstrated, schools should be taught. But a good model teacher
•could not get employment here, unless he could produce satisfactory
evidence that he was all right on the questions of the present day.
Political prejudice seems to be the greatest obstacles in the way
•of our improvement. A few men who have influence, and could beef
;great advantage to the cause of education, if they would only lay
aside their prejudices, and take hold, are afraid that they might iguo-
rantly be supporting a law, that recognized negro education, or pa-
tronizing some teacher that believed in the same; some have been
known to say (hat they would let their children grow up in ignorance,
rather than send to a radical teacher. I don't see how these obstacles
are to be overcome, or how education can ever prosper here, while
such fanaticism exists. I regard education as an elevator of the human
mind, high above politics, and the opinions of prejudiced men, and a
little more of it would be a blessing here. The future prospects of
education in this county seems gloomy to me, unless there is some
interest taken in the cause by those interested. There has been
taught a school in every organized district., of at least three months,
within the year.

ST. CHARLES.— 0. Bbckington.
Tliere has been a marked improvement in the feeling towards
public schools within the past year. Old prejudices, which came of
u state of society differing from the present, are rapidly passing
away. Many that were formerly conducted as private scliooU have
changed, and accepted the advantages of the public school system.
Many- new school houses have been put up within the past year in
this county ; and some localities have exhibited a most laudable spirit
in bearing a heavv burden of taxation, to accomplish this result.
With some of the changes hereinafter suggested, I think there is a
most hopeful future for the public schools ot this county.
Since my appointment in March, 1868, my labors as county super-
intendent have been chiefly confined to the examination of teachers,
conferring with school omcers, and attempting to bring something
like order out of the confusion produced by the amended school law.
The educational work performed by other agencies than those
above mentioned, has not been sufficient to create an^ great interest
among our people. We have one very excellent private school in
the county. Of corporate institutions, I know of none that reaches
the level of a good high school. It is most deplorable, in my estima-
tion, that we have'nt a good^igh school, and largely increased pub-
lic school advantages at our county seat.
I should be glad if our people would demand higher (Jualifications
in those they employ as teachers. I should be further rejoiced if fully
one-third of those who apply to me for certificated, would not come
at all. During the eight months which I have held this office, I have
been compelled to reject eleven. Had no element of mercy con-
trolled my action, but simply a sense of justice to the county, that
number would have been twenty. Many who apply to me are very
deficient in arithmetic. Notation and numeration have been almost
wholly neglected by the majority. They seem to have begun in ad-
dition, and simply '* worked the sums.'' It is suprising that so many
should judge themselves qualified to t^ach, who are unable to assign
a reason for placing the first figure of the second partial product,
when multiplying by tens, under the second or tens figure of the first
partial product — who cantiot reduce three or four fractions to a com-
mon denomination — who are unable to enumerate in decimals, and
Bit in blank silence when questioned as to discount, allegation and the
extraction of roots. But the most marked deficiencies are in orthog-
raphy and U. S. history. These branches seem to have been consid-
ered unworthy of the attention of most of our schools. Hardly any
know when, or from whom, the territory out of which Missouri was
carved, was acquired. Many are unaware that we have ever had any
other wars on this continent, than the revolutionary and recent civil
war. A few isolated facts as to our national history, is the sum of
their acquirements. Anything like an extended knowledge, espe-
cially of the causes and consequences ot events — the essence of his-
tory— is out of the question. Yet, we have some good teachers in the
county, and their number is hopefully increasing. With the advan-
tages of a good high school in the largest town of each county, our
public schools woul.l receive a tremendous progressive impetus, while
it would further serve as a normal school, and supply us with a
greatjy superior class of teachers.
Our greatest present need is a plain, clear, harmonious school
law. The deficiencies of the prasent law, the doubts which hang
about its construction, have checked a healthy enthusiasm in some
lie
townships, and produced unpleasant feelings in otherwise harmonioas
localities.
A school law should be so plain in its provisions, so clear in its
language as to stand in no need of being construed. The possibility
and probability of numerous nfiishaps, omissions and acts of negli-
gence, on the part of school officers and people, should be abundantly
provided for. I make a few suggestions which my experience, here
and elsewhere, dictates should be embodied in any new school law
which the General Assembly may give us. In all matters of diffi-
culty between school officers, or between school officers and people,
there should be some authority pointed out to which it should be re-
ferred for decision. In case parties are disatisfied with the decision
rendered by the authority first indicated, a mode of appeal should be
provided for. As authority to decide matters in the first instance^ 1
should suggest the county superintendent. Parties not being satis-
fied with his judgment, he might be required to certify the whole matr
ter to the State Superintendent, or the circuit court — to any compe-
tent authority by which we might reach uniform decisions. I further
suggest that no school officer be permitted to teach in his own town-
ship ; that townships of only one school district, be required to elect
three directors; townships of two sub-districts be required to elec:
two directors each ; and townships of more than two subdistricts, be
required to elect one director for each district. As to county super-
intendency, I would abolish it altogether, or make its powers, duties
and compensation, in some measure commensurate witn the immense
good it can do. In a county like this, there is abundant labor for an
able, energetic, first class man employing all his time. His salary
would be a small consideration compared with the great help he would
be to the public schools of the county. Let all township school offi-
cers-be required to report to him annually, and hold themselves is
readiness to answer all proper inquiries which he may make. Far-
ther, let the county superintendent nave power to summarily stop the
misapplication ot school mone^, with right of parties feeling them-
selves aggrieved to appeal to mgher authority. And further, let the
salary of the county superintendent be something definite, or thai
can be made so ;< for a beggarly pittance, doubly earned, but reluct-
antly paid, is far from satisfactory to men who ought to hold the po-
sition.
In conclusion, I express the earnest hope that somethings: ^iH ^
done by the next General Assembly, to supply our deficiency in the
matter of normal and high schools. I can think of no better method
of partially meeting this great need, than the followinfz: : Require
every town or city in the State, of three thousand inhabitants and
upwards, to build and sustain a good high school. When any town
does this, especial aid and encouragement should be given ; saj a
pure gift from the State treasury, proportioned to the number of peo-
ple in the place. When they fail or refuse to do their duty in thi»
respect, within a specified time, penalties should be attached in the
shape of diminution of privileges, and a withholding of a portion oi
the school funds.
ST. OLAIR— J. W. CoKN.
The educational progress in this county has increased. The citi-
Mns are all awake to the interests oftheir children. Within the last
117
two years, we have built and repaired some sixty school houses in
this county. And now, the subject of education, is the all-prevailing
theme, when it was once something else. We are all laboring with
one accord, and we expect some day, not far distant, to see our coun-
ty not one whit behind any of her sister counties. With these glow-
ing hopes burning within our bosoms, we shall labor until we'obtaiii
the obiect of our heart's desire.
Educational toork done by the county superintendent, — I have
labored and done all that laid within my power for the special inter-
est of the youth in our county, irrespective of friend or foe.^
Educational work done iy other agencies. — ^It is my opinion (and
also that of others), that the teachers' institute of this county has
done much, if not more, to awaken the citizens of this county up to
a deeper sense of their duty, than any other cause. It proves conclu-
sively that the teachers of this county are alive and awake to their
calling. And I will here state, that I think the plan of normal schook
for the proper training of our future teachers would be one of the
greatest agencies ^if adopted by our Legislature! to forward the
present and future liistory of public education in Missouri.
Qualification of teachers, — ^The qualifications of teachers of thifl
county, are of a medium grade.
Obstacles in the way of improvement. — ^The only obstacles, that
I know of, are those that would clog the wheels of any general reform*
The insufficiency of our financial resources and the condition of our
county, has been left in, after passing through a five years' war, are
the only obstacles.
I think all of the public schools of this county have been kept
open at least three months, if not four, during the year. The citizens
of this county are wideawake on this point, and are determined to
see that the youth gets the full benefit of the law.
ST. FRANCOIS.— F. M. Oartee.
There has been considerable progress in the cause of education
in the county since my last annual letter. The people are becoming
more reconciled to the method of carrying on the public schools by
yearly assessments. Many of them, who really object to the new
school law, having sufiicient discernment to readilv understand, that
they cannot better themselves by complaining of the manner of sup-
porting the public schools, have accepted the situation. Many of the
largest landholders in the county take considerable interest in the
public schools. Many of them are directors. The new school law
seems to be a fixed fact. Therefore, the people promiscuously take,
interest in the public schools, and look to them for the education of
their children. There is only one dissatisfaction which seems to be
prevalent among the wealthier classes of this county. They are forced
to pay tax for the education of the children of their poor neigh-
bors. But these poor children whose parents pay little or no tax, re-
main often at home while the public schools are in progress. M!any
of them, through false pride. They delay, until their neighbors, who
have a surplus of means, get up a subscription or select school, then
they send their children to school for the association, and almost in-
variable fail to pay their tuition. It is high time that such afiected
aristocracy was done away with in this country of progress. A portion
118
of the Prussian system of public education ought to be adopted id
this country. During certain months of the year every child between
five and twenty-one years ought to be compelled to attend a public
or select school, except in extraordinary circumstances. The inter-
est of property holders demands it. The wellare of the government
necessitates it.
I regret very much that I could not visit the public schools and
school meetings, as often as the cause of education demanded. But
my business was such that it could not be neglected* If all the im-
portant business of public schools was required to be transacted by
the county superintendent, there would be a sufficiency of business
to justify them to employ all, or a good portion of his time, in the in-
terest o^ education. But the new school law has multiplied official
duties, until it is everybody's business to attend to these duties.
The business is distributed among so many officers that it is im-
possible for all of them to be competent men. The county superin-
tendent ought to be treasurer and collector of the school funds and
moneys. All the business that is done by the county clerk, in making
out returns to the State Superintendent, ought to be attended to by the
county superintendent. He ought to be required to keep an office at
the county seat. In no case should he reside away from the county
seat^ and should there not be sufficient business to justify him to move
to the county seat, there ought to be an amendment to the law^ em-
powering him to appoint a competent agent, residing at the county
seat, to attend to the business; of the office.
Our county treasurer has, time and again, notified the different
township treasurers to come in and get the moneys due their respec-
tive townships. Some say, in reply, that they do not feel competent
to keep a correct account of the moneys. Others rdply that tbe^ are
afraid to draw the money and take it home and deposit it in their log
cabins ; that if they do, , (naming some well known des-
perado), will come and get it, and appropriate it to the benefit and
education of his own family.
A few of the leading men of the county have used their influence
for the advancement of education. With a judicious management of
affairs by the county superintendent and township officers, the lead-
ing men of the county would become interested in public education.
The qualifications of the teachers of this county are pretty good.
On a scale of five, they average nearly four. The great obstacle in
the way of the improvement of the teachers of this county, is that
many of the resident teachers only teach for a few months, in order
to acquire means sufficient to set them up at some other business.
Such teachers will not take any pride in teachers' institutes, or the
permanent improvement of their vocation. Another obstacle, is that
teachers are not held in sufficient esteem, or paid sufficiently to rema-
nerate them for the time they must necessarily occupy in improving
themselves, and in imparting their learning to others. Teaching is a
high and responsible calling, and men who follow it, should be re-
spected and paid for their services in proportion to their qualifica-
tions.
So far as I can ascertain, nearly all the public schools of this
county have been kept open at least three months during the past
year.
Not so many townships reported their enumeration this year as
did last. It is owing, most probably, to a change in the time of re-
porting the enumeration. It is to be hoped that the time specified in
the amendment will be permitted to remain. It is much better for
119
the school year to end in March than in October, as in the previous
law. Under the former law, the schools were not more than half
taught out when the school year ended.
I wish to make a few remarks in regard to the amendment, em-
powering the county superintendent, " when, from any cause, the
voters of any township of any of the several counties of this State,
shall be disqualified from, or shall have failed of holding an election,
for the purpose of electing school directors for the several subdistricts
of said township, or any of them, as provided for by law, in chapter
forty-six, section two, of the General Statutes of the State of Missouri^
the county superintendent of public schools shall appoint, for any
such subdistricts of said township, three school directors, from the
nearest district or township in the county where the same can be
found, who shall possess the qualifications of a grand juror of the
circuit court,'' &c. The county superintendent ought first to have
been required to appoint men of such qualifications, who are resi-
dents of the township or subdislrict. The county superintendent
ouffht, certainly, to be allowed the privilege of exhausting the mate-
rial of the subdistrict or township, before appointing outsiders to levy
taxes upon the people of a township or subdistrict in which they have
no property or interest. Before making such an appointment, I should
consult the people, and in that case, it would be the dernier reaorU
Carpet-bag school officers are a novelty to this country, anyway.
ST. LOUIS.— A. W. Murphy.
In no previous year has the progress of education, in this county,
been so marked and rapid. The people have become aroused to the
importance of the public school system, as the only means of secur-
ing the advantages of education to the great mass of children. Ex-
tensive improvements have taken place in school furniture and appa-
ratus, many large and substantial school houses have been built, and
it is estimated that almost double the number of children received
instruction in the public schools of the county during the past year,
than at any former period.
The work which devolves on the county superintendent, in a pop-
ulous county like St. Louis, to make the public schools effective and
useful to the extent to which they are designed, is necessarily arduous,
and requires his whole time and best energies. The few subdistricts
and schools which remained unorganizea last year, were organized
and put in successful operation. Every township, and almost every
subdistrict and school, were visited, and many of , the schools exam-
ined. A county teachers' association was organized, which promises
to be beneficial in awakening a desire for sefi-improvement, and cre-
ating a more lively interest among the teachers in their work. A
successful session of the county institute was held, the ^ood results
of which were perceptible in the schools lor the remainder of the
term.
Probabl}'', the most perplexing duty performed, was to examine
and endeavor to select the best from among the many applicants who
presented themselves for the responsible position of teachers. One
of Ihe principal objects of attention kept constantly in view, was to
foster and create in the public mind a more extensive interest in edu-
cational matters.
' ISO
There was very little educational work performed by other agen-
cies, except that of the various school officers and teachers.
The standard of qualification of teachers is much higher than it
was the previous year, but is yet too low. There, are, nowever, a
number of first-class teachers in the county, many of whom were ed-
ucated in normal schools in other states. The appreciation of the
valuable services rendered by the true teacher, and the willingness
on the part of directors to pay better wages to those who are well
qualified, have assisted materially in elevating the standard of teach-
ing.
Among the obstacles in the way of improvement, may be men-
tioned the want of earnestness and a desire for improvement on the
part of the teachers themselves. This may be accounted for, in part,
A*om the fact that many intend to teach only for a short time, for the
purpose of procuring fund&Ho enable them to pursue some other pro-
fession or business. They feel no interest in it, professionally, and
hence make no effort at improvement This can only be remedied by
establishing normal schools, capable of supplying the requisite num-
ber of professional teachers.
The length of the school term in most of the townships in this
county, for the past year, was ten months, and th^ schools were kept
open not less than four months in any of tnem.
SCHUYLER— E. Hughes.
I am compelled to make a brief report, principally from want of
material. Our county has been steadily advancing in education since
the close of the rebellion. Living near the borders of the noble State
of Iowa, we could scarcely help but progress, even if we were so dis-
I>osed. Our people are alive to the interests of education. From
every school district, we hear the crv (from the non-progressive) of
^ heavy taxes ;" but these taxes are for the building of school houses,
and paying of teachers.
There nave been qjiite a number of very good frame houses, bat
no log ones, erected. The grounds are generally well selected, and,
in a number of subdistricts, they are preparing to get good furniture
and school apparatus.
We have a number of very good teachers. As our county is yet
comparatively new, we cannot pay the highest wages, and, therefore,
cannot expect all to be the best teachers. Educators are not nnlike
other persons, they will hunt those localities where money is plenty.
Honor is a very fine thing, and teachers should strive to ennoble their
profession, yet it will not support life — no "bread and butter " in it
Examinations. — Generally oral.
Reports of oMcers, — Very imperfect. I think it is particularly
owing to the rapid changes in the school law. It takes some ^time to
publish and distribute school laws, and very often the time in which
those things, required to be done by the last change, is past before
the officers get the law. You see this makes it a little inconvenient
about keeping the books correct.
Colored people. — ^There are now ten living in Lancaster. I think
they do not want to go to school.
Changes in the law. — I would recommend that the superintend-
ent of the counties either have more control and supervision over the
schools in his county or his office abolished. A great many questions
121
arise among the various schools of the county ; the officers exf^ecl to
appeal to the superintendent, and when they find he has nothing to
say in the matter, they feel disappointed, and say they don't like such
a law. I think a great many of the duties now imposed on the county
clerk should be turned over to the superintendent. The duties of
school matters should be done by a person dijrectly in that business.
I think the changes recommended by the State Superintendent, in his
last year's report, are just such as are needed, and hope they will be-
come the law this winter.
Seminaries* — We have one in Lancaster, doing a very good busi-
ness. It was very well attended this fall.
SHELBY— E. P. BXJRLIKGAMB.
The progress of education in Shelby county, during the past vear,
has been, for the most part, gratifying and encouraging. Though we
have not yet reached the acme of our hopes and expectations, we are
nevertheless making some advance toward its attainment.
Public sentiment seems to be turning in the right direction, and
gathering force as it goes. This indicates an interest on the part of
individuals whose influence has not heretofore been exerted in the
cause of public school education.
Immigration is conducing to the general good, by the importation
of a very iavorable element in respect to schools. We have among
us, also, an influential class of citizens, who are not patrons of the
public schools, having no children to educate, who seem disposed to
aid in building up our system of public instruction. School officers
are to be commended for the efforts they have made to secure good
houses, and carry out the provisions of the law. Though a few of tnem
have violated some of the most plain and pointed requirements which
the law imposes, it is with pleasure that I can refer to our directors,
as a class^ and commend them for their good works.
The Press. — "The Shelby County Herald" has been, during my
entire administration, a firm friend to the educational interests of the
county, and it has been a power for good that cannot be too highly
estimated.
Upon the whole, I think there is evidence of progress, though I
will be obliged to notice some things which will indicate how slowly
we are advancing. By keeping high our standard of education, and
putting forth appropriate energy, we shall certainly, in time, achieve
the most desirable results.
Of the official labor performed, I will make but a brief statement.
Visiting schools, advising directors and teachers, and endeavoring to
perfect the operation of our present school system, have taken a large
portion of the time allowed me for the performance of the duties which
belong to the office. During January and February of this year, I vis-
ited twenty-six schools. Ten davs have been occupied in aUenaance
upon the teachers' institute, and conventions of school officers. To
economise the time as much as possible, I called the several township
boards to meet in convention, for the consideration of important mat-
ters connected with the public schools, and was thus relieved from
the necessity of calling upon each, individually.
The office business of this department has been somewhat exten-
sive. Letters are frequently received from directors and teachers who
seek advice, and relief from difficulties. To return such answers as
122
their importance demands often requires considerable time and trouble.
The law must be carefully examined, not only in the letter of particu-
lar sections, but also in its f^eneral spirit and intention. Careful con-
sideration of business of this nature no doubt often prevents strife
and dissension, and serves to harmonize discordant influences. Some-
times personal attention was necessary to prevent repeated and con-
tinued violations of the law. Frequent visits were made to one town-
ship where there was a persistent, determined attempt made to keep
in oflSce men who cannot legally act as directors.
The county superintendent is almost ignored, except when sus-
tained by the law, and although he has ^^general supervision," yet it is
hardly suflScient authority upon which to take action.
While the law stands as it is, I earnestly hope the General As-
sembly will provide for its proper execution by attaching a severe
penalty for its violation, and although I am opposed to rebels having
anything to do with the management of the schools, I would rather
see the Taw changed on that point than to have it so often violated
without fear of punishment. I am happy to state that there are but
three townships in this county which give cause for complaint in this
particular.
Our teachers are improving in faithfulness, capacity and usefal-
ness, thereby doing themselves great credit, and the public valuable
service. True, we have some teachers who would better be content
to follow some other profession. Selfish and narrow-minded, with pur-
poses and ends that terminate in themselves, they follow teachingfor
the sake of funds to meet pressing demands for personal expenses.
No man, whose price is silver, can ever be a true teacher. The warm
and loving heart, and a strong desire for the good of others, are prom-
inent characteristics of the true teacher. He will feel intense solici-
tude for the improvement of his pupils, and will rejoice in their ad-
vancement.
Too many over-estimate their Qualifications, and to their estimate
is added that of their friends. Such persons are satisfied with certifi-
cates of qualification, though destitute of the qualifications them-
selves. Once in possession of certificates, study and training are at
an end. There are no enlarged ideas of the greatness of their calling,
no elevated views of its sacredness.
They seldom, if ever, attend the teachers' institute, unless their
certificate have expired, and they wish to have them renewed.
In a word, the '^almighty dollar" is all that lures them to the
school room, and binds them to the work. It is hardly necessary to
say that these are an obstacle in the way to success. The low wages
paid to teachers are enough to prevent those who are well qualified
from engaging in the worE, and those whose preparation has never
been an expense, are kept in employment because they can afford to
teach for thirty or forty dollars per month. Inadequate compensation
necessitates frequent changes, and these are, by no means, of any ad-
vantage to the success of the cause of public school education. The
want of good houses, teachers, furniture, apparatus and oflBicers^is the
chief obstacle to be surmounted. The same troubles that existed a
year ago are still to be met with, although there has been some suc-
cess in efforts to obviate them. Perhaps the present system is imper-
fectly understood, or else it is not carried into execution with the pro-
per energy. However, the experience of the past may be of value in
connection with future operations, and by a continued and appropri-
ate pressure the truth may be established with permanence, where
now it has no lodgement
1^
Owing to the fact that some of our subdistricts were without
school houses, there has not been in each the three months' school re-
quired by law.
It is hoped that by next fall no subdistrict will be thus deprived
of the benefit of the public funds. Local troubles of a personal na-
ture have resulted in keeping one subdistrict without a school bouse
for about two years, and during that time there has been no school at
all.
Another subdistrict, although without a school house, kept up the
school, having rented a house for the purpose.
SULLIVAN.— D. L. Hinckley.
So far as public schools are concerned in this county, it is impos-
sible for me to make much report. It being late when I received my
commission, and when I was supplied with the school law, I have had
time to do but little. But when 1 received legal authority and mate-
rial to work with. I did the best I could, it being at a time when the
people were hignly excitea with the political questions, and when
political meetings were being held in almost every school house, and
the people being also busily engaged in taking care of their crops, it
was impossible lor me to do much with the public school business. I
am sorry to say, however, that the educational car moves but slowly
in our county, at the present time.
Our teachers are, generally, not of the first grade, though we have
a few good teachers. The want of competent teachers, and a better
school law, or perhaps a better understanding of the present law, are,
I think, amon^ the great obstacles to improvement. .
In my opinion, a sjsiem of free normal schools, dispersed over
our State, the grand object of which should be, to train and educate
teachers for the benefit of our State, would wholly supply the demand
for competent teachers. But so long as we depend upon other States
to furnish us with teachers, just so long we shall fall far short of
making our schools just what they should be. We have the material
in our own State out of which we can manufacture our own teachers,
if we have but the machinery to operate with.
Most of the schools of this county have been kept open, at least,
three months during the year.
bTONE.— S. B. Wright.
»
When I came into o£Sce, about eighteen months ago, this county
was entirely unorganized, I have organized every township in the
county. There have been public schools in every township and nearly
every subdistrict. I have labored very hard to get the board to per-
form their duty, as a goodly number of the citizens are opposed to the
law as regards the levying and collection of taxes. The wealthy have
to pay the taxes of the poor. I think I will, with the assistance of the
board, overcome that obstacle. I think we will have better times in
the future.
This county was greatly damaged during the war, the citizens,
most of them, were driven from their homes on account ol their loy-
124
alty, and their houses and farms destroyed, so that we had to com-
mence anew, and this county lying on the border, had to be resettled.
The citizens begin to manifest some interest in education.
I have labored very faithfully for the educational interest of this
county, but I cannot boast, owing to the backwardness of our citi-
zens. '
There has been comparatively nothing done only what I have
done myself, with some assistance of the board.
We have three or four first class teachers for common schools in
this county, in the second class, four or five, the remainder poor. The
boards of education have not offered that inducement to teachers they
should have done.
The only obstacle in the way is that we have not good, energetic
teachers, w&o understand the art of teaching.
All the districts in the county have, with the exception of one,
been kept open from three to six months during the year, and some
districts intend to continue during the winter.
TANEY.— J. J. Brown.
1. School houses. — ^We have in the county about twenty-five or
thirty buildings that bear the name of school houses, but they are all
built of logs, owing to the scarcity of sawed lumber, consequently, we
we have not a first class school house in the county. Some of the
districts are making arrangements to build respectable school houses,
and I fondly hope the day is not far distant when every pupil in the
county, will have a comfortable and well-furnished school house, in
which to secure instruction.
2. Grounds. — The people are beginning to learn that it is a daa-
ferous practice to build school houses on the public domain, or lands
elonging to some individual, without requiring a deed for it, hence
nearly all the subdistricts are purchasing the ground on which their
buildings are being erected; and I yet have topes that at no distant
day, they will have them beautifully ornamented with groves of trees
suitable for the purpose.
3. FuTniture, — Our furniture is very limited, in fact, we have
almost none, except ^'wooden benches" and a few writing desks.
4. Apparatus. — We have none whatever in the county, but I
hope that out school officers will, in a short time, procure a sufficiency
for our public schools.
6. Teachers. — We have, at this time, some very able teachers,
who, as a general thing, manifest considerable interest in a popular
education, though I regret to say that a very large portion of them are
poorly qualified to teach school. The people being, generally, uned-
ucated themselves, are as apt to make choice of an imposter, as a
competent person, for their teacher, and if the superintendent refuses
to grant a certificate, the local directors, being governed by public
sentiment, will employ none.
6. County associations or institutes. — We have a teachers' insti-
tute, its first session was held in last June, and the second in October,
they were each in session three days, and proved to be a complete
success.
7. Reports of School Officers. — School officers have been very
125
prompt in reporting the number of school children in their respec-
tive subdistricts, but as yet have made none to the superintendent.
8. Interest manifested in the Education of Colored People. — We
have not a sufficient number of colored children in the county for a
school, but judging from the vote, on the Constitutional Amendment,
at the late election, I think a majority of the people would take con-
siderable interest in the education of that unfortunate class of hu-
manity.
When the people learn to elect men to office who are intelligent,
and have the good will ot the county at heart, then we may expect
the cause of education to advance, but so long as the people are so
ignorant that they will elect men to offices of the greatest impor-
tance, simply because they are good citizens, so long we may expect
the cause of education to be retarded.
Our county iustices compose the most ignorant tribunal^ that ever
occwpied the judge's seat in the State, consequently, we cannot expect
anything but opposition, to everything calculated to advance the
cause of education.
Our county clerk is equally ignorant ; being incompetent to make
out the tax books, with anything like correctness, consequently we
have no money to pay teachers.
It has too long been the practice in our border counties, to elect
men to office, without regard to qualification, and so long as that^ is
kept up, our public schools will not rise above the present grade of
ejlucation.
I do really think, that our Legislature ought to give the State Su-
perintendent, the sole power of appointing the county superintend-
ents, and require him to appoint none but those well qualified to
discharge the duties.
TEXAS.— D. S. DoNEGAN.
We are making some progress in this county, in the cause of ed-
ucation ; a number of school houses have been , built the present year,
as well as an academy, at Licking.
I have traveled some 400 miles durinir the year, visited every
township in the county, organized school districts, and used every
means in my power to create an interest in the cause of education.'
We have no first-class teachers in th^ public schools in this
county, neither can we expect to have until there is a demand for a
ten months' school in each subdistrict in the county. Constant em-
ployment and respectable living wages is what the intelligent, active
teacher must have; ^' small pay commands small abilities," and in
this county, we have both at present.
The great obstacles in the way of improvement in this county, is
the mode of raising school funds. In your last report you recom-
mended an amendment to the law, so as to authorize the levv of a
general tax upon all the taxable property of the State, and to be de-
voted exclusively, to the payment of teachers' salaries. I heartily
coincide with you in the above change, and believe it to be the only
effectual means of raising money for school purposes.
We can average about four months' school tnis year, in each sub-
district, quite a number however, were private schools. I think it
necessary that school officers should report directly to the county so-
126
perinlendent, and that the county superintendent devote his time
exclusively to the educational interests of his county, that he have a
stated salary of so much a year, or so much per diem, and no limit to
the time he works ; if he is engaged in school business every day in
the year, so much the better for the county.
VERNON.— L. J. SHAW.
Since my last report, the school, interest in Vernon has suffered
greatly, owin^ to a decision that was given in the circuit court here,
to the effect that for the years during the war, parties should be re-
lieved from ten per cent, per annum compound, on their school bonds,
reducing the same to six per cent, per annum simple. I believe said
decision was just, yet it left us without means to sustain our schools,
except that raised in the subdistricts by tax, and but few public schools
have been in operation since.
Many of our best teachers were compelled to leave, and those
who remain, are teaching public and private schools, for a meagre
compensation.
I wish you would urge upon the General AssembW of Missouri,
the importance of establishing a permanent fund sumcient for the
support of public schools in every subdistrict, ten months during each
year.
The present system of public funds should certainly be changed.
We never get our whole amount ot interest annually from the
public, swamp, and school land funds, for if the several parties holding
the principal of said funds are solvent, and their mortgages and
bonds are good, it is optional with them as to when they shall pay
their interest.
The truth is, we have very little means outside of the tax levied
in the subdistricts, for the support of public schools.
Again, I would urge a change, and suggest if nothing else is expe
dient, that the several lunds be distributed among the townships, ac-
cording to their enumeration, and that they be made subordinate to
no power save that of the laws, and of the county and State Super-
intendents of schools.
1 am very much opposed to the system of normal schools, by dis-
tricts. The great object of common schools is the benefit of the
masses, and such a system could not accomplish this. Every county
in our State has sufficient means, and a sufficient number of young
persons to educate, to keep a first class school in operation the whole
year, in which our teacherH could receive instruction.
The salary of the county superintendent of schools should be in-
creased, enabling him to visit schools, to instruct officers, to hold
examination and institutes, and to furnish himself with the best works
and methods pertaining to schools, and further, the Qeneral Assembly
should make provision for all blanks necessary, down to the local di-
rectors of the subdistrict.
Allow me to repeat, that teaching in the public schools should be
made a profession. The free school system will never attain its ob-
jects until this shall be done.
Under the present system, more or less errors are taught, as we
are compelled to employ many incompetent teachers, transient per-
sons, who have no definite object in view, and who will teach for a
12T
sum barely sufficient to defray the expenses of the hour. " The la-
borer is worthy of his hire," and the professional teacher, the teacher
who has prepared himself for his work, should be given constant em-
Floyment in our schools, at liberal wages, and, until this shall be done,
shall have grave doubts in reference to the good resulting from the
system.
WARREN.— 0. HoEFER. '
The cause of education st^l advances in the county. Our school
houses have been greatly improved during the past year. Those sub-
districts which had passable school houses, have repaired and reseated
them in such a manner as to make them more inviting than formerly.
In many subdistricts, new, warm and commodious buildings have been
erected. The tax levied for said building purposes has been heavy,
and, money being scarce at present, doubtless, in some cases burden-
some. Our teachers are doing as well as can be expected: they seem
to take much interest in the discharge of their duties, and labor dili-
gently for the advancement of their students. Grade of scholarship,
on an average, is about three and one-half, some few reaching five.
Some teachers are quite proficient in some branches, and quite defi-
cient in others, which the school law prescribes. All the public schools
in the county have been kept open at least four months during the
year.
WASHINGTON— T. 8. Love.
«
Our progress is manifested in the election of good men for direc-
tors^ and the general care taken in procuring expert teachers. Also,
in the erection and furnishing good school houses. This is not gen-
eral, however. Then, again, there is a more general disposition to
carry out the provisions of the law, to tax for school purposes. I
think, from present indications, that a good portion of the subdistricts
will pay a tax for school purposes the ensuing year. This is evidently
the best way to keep up a good public school.
My work has been, mostly, to secure the services of well qualified
and permanent teachers ; to sustain county teachers' institutes; to
visit and lecture schools and school officers ; to encourage the build-
ing and properly furnishing school houses, and the use of good books
and apparatus.
There has beien considerable aid given our educational work dur-
ing the past year in the zeal of the friends and supporters of ^^Irondale
Academy," and "Bellevue Collegiate Institiite," both of which are
^ood schools, of high order, recently established in our county, and
in a prosperous condition.
The citizens of our county town, Potosi, have also, in a fitting
manner, shown their high appreciation of good public schools, and the
cause of education in general, by organizing, under special act, for
towns, and taking steps to fit up Kood and commodious rooms to
establish a first rate public graded scTiool. 'I hope they will succeed.
128
The qualifications of oar teachers are ^not of the first ^ade, for
the reasons that we have not sufficient fund and interest to keep reg-
ular teachers employed. We also lack a good normal system to edn-
cate our own teachers. The citizens of this county are almost unani-
mously in favor of the plan suggested, to be. brought before the Leg-
islature to provide for the support of several normal schools in the
State. I heartily recommend it as the most feasible plan that could
be adopted. We have good material^ and we should educate and train
our own teachers. But for the present, the best we can do, is to em-
ploy ladies and gentlemen of good moral habits from among the vari-
ous vocations of life. To these, we must for the time being, commit
the precious youth of our county.
I make it a rule to be as rigid as consistent in the literary, and
absolutely so in the moral qualification of my teachers. Let teach-
ing be considered by all, as it should and soon will be, a profession.
Let the State, as the guardian of her own intelligence and progress,
see to it that we have good schools of instruction for our teachers,
with inducements to attend and conditions to teach, and then let pa-
rents be as scrupulous in employing non-professional instructors for
their children as they are in employing quack doctors or inexperienced
mechanics, and then we will have ^ood schools. However, the teach-
ers of this county will compare with those of any other county under
this present administration of public schoolism.
The principal obstacles in the way of improvenoent, to a conside-
rable extent, are partisanism. Also a failure to see the importance
and efficiency of public schools. When properly conducted, they
are the best schools for many reasons. They are the only sure aod
direct means of reaching the masses. These should be good enough
for the rich man. and cheap enough for the poor man. A place where
teachers, parents and children should act in concert, sympathy and
common interest. There is not sufficient interest taken in teachers'
institutes, and a uniformity in the use of books. We hope to advance
in these respects soon. There should be an appropriation made to
support teachers' institutes in each county, either by the Legislature,
or the county, or by both.
The most of our schools have been kept open for four months dn-
ring the year. Some of them longer, and none less than three months
where taught at all.
WAYNE.— A, W. Banks.
My commission was received about the 20th of April last, and I
immediately commenced my labors. I found but three subdistricts
froperly. organized, and but four schools in progress in the county,
have endeavored to awaken an interest in the cause of education,
and have succeeded to an extent beyond my anticipation. At pres-
ent there are about forty subdistricts organized, and winter schools
being taught in twenty-seven of them, and I think the others will
employ teachers as soon as they can repair the school houses. The
improvement, therefore, in all matters pertaining to the educational
cause, since the scurrilous report of A. B. McMurtry for last year, has
been great.
School houses — Quite a number of new buildings have been
erected during the past year, mostly log, but comfortable and fit for
irinter schools. There are several very good irame school houses in
I2d
Ihe 'County, and tlier6 is an evident disposition to erect a better class
■of buildings, as the citizens recover from the damaging effects of tbe
late calamitous war.
Grounds. — In many instances, upon a simple suggestion to do so,
the dit^eetors have had the grounds surrounding the school houses
grubbed out and made to look more decent I never visit a school
without referring lo this matter.
Furniture, — At present I cannot report much improvement in
the mode of furnishing the school rooms.
The educational work that I have performed during the past seven
months, has consisted in visiting and examining schools, lecturing,
advising and consulting with directors and teachers, examining teach-
ers, and in my social intercourse with citizens throughout the county,
trying to stir up a lively interest in .educational matters.
The only other agency in this county, is the select school conduct-
ed by Dr. Lucas, late of Arcadia Seminary.
i have given certificates to fifteen teachers, and have found seye-
ral teaching under certificates granted by my predecessor. Of the
fifteen there were not over three or four who could come up to the
standard of scholarship' laid down in the statute, but I granted them
certificates, for the reason assigned by the superintendent of Madi-
son county in his last year's report, ^'preferring to vindicate their
scholarship on the certificate, thereby enabling the local directors to
judge whether the applicant is sufiiciently qualified to teach in tneir
subdistrict." If I had not pursued this plan, there would have been
but fow schools in the county.
I have not held a teachers' institute this year, the time allowed
me being fully occupied with other work. It is my intention to or-
ganize one during the ensuing spring.
The greatest obstacle in the way of improvement is the indiflFer-
ence and apathy shown by so many of our wealthiest citizens. If we
can once awaken an interest, improvement will follow.
Not over one-halt of the public schools in the county have been
kept open for three months during the year. We look for better
things in the future.
In conclusion I would suggest that some alteration be made in
the school law that will do away with the necessity of the twenty five
per cent, of the State revenue appropriated for school purposes, being
taken out of the county where it is collected. Let it be paid over by
the collector to the county treasurer, and his receipt forwarded to the
State Auditor. If, after paying the expenses of oflBicers, etc., at Jef-
ferson City, there should be any of the interest left ot the State fund
i which fund amounted last year, according to the report, to >1,687,-
71), let it be apportioned the same as at present.
I would also suggest that the school law be so altered that town-
ship clerks in future make their reports to the county superintendents
instead of the county clerks.
I also beg to express an opinion that the Legislature should de-
fine mbre particularly the duties, time to be occupied and the com-
pensation of county superintendents.
WEBSTER.
It IS with pleasure that we note some progress in this county.
Teachers generally, have been faithful in their work, and the people
9 s B
<i
130
have exhibited more interest in the public schools than has been the
case hereteiore. A number of school houses has been built this year.
The people are better informed, and demand more commodioas
houses. The consequence is, houses are constructed with a view to
convenience, and are more easily warmed and ventilated. There is
an edifice, intended for a college, in process of construction at Marsh-
field.
There are a number of well qualified teachers in this county,
some of whom have come from other States, and are ably contribut-
ing their aid in building up Southwest Missouri, which we hope, at no
distant day, will stand pre-eminent for intelligence and morality, as
hitherto for loyalty and patriotism. The subject of education de
mands all the energies of the patriot and philanthropist^ and no State
can be negligent of this subject without detriment to the people.
Perhaps no subject demands the considerate attention of Uie legisla-
ture so much as a system for normal school in this State. It is by
properly trained teachers that we are to bring out popular system of
education to its highest degree of perfection, and thereby secure uni-
formity in our schools.
We most cordially recommend the Legislature, at its coming ses-
sion, to devote a portion of its time to the careful consideration of Uie
subject of normal schools.
WORTH.— J. F. Beauchamp.
The educational progress in the county is moderately good, butl
desired to see it better. In every condition that I could promote, by
labor, the cause of education, I have tried to occupy.
I have not had the full co-operation of the citizens of the county
to.thai^ extent desired.
As a general thing, our teachers are of the second class, but are
.worthy >of praise for their work.
The greatest obstacle I see in the way of improvement, is a dis-
Jnteresteduess upon the part of the citizens to work perse venngly.
To my .certain knowledge the schools in the county have all been
continued, three months and upward, during the year.
WRIGHT.— W. S. PoPB.
In makingito^KJu my first report, I am happy to say that the cause
of learning aud.education is on the advance in our county, and that
our people are b^ing, to some extent, awakened to the importance of
popular educatiQii.
When the w^.closed we were left in an almost destitute condi-
tion. The roving bands of guerrillas that had infested the country
Uiroughout the whole war, had not only burned the dwellings, anJl
laid waste the farms, but had also destroyed our public buildings, and
scattered far and wide our population, and every element of wealth
and prosperity. Our county school fppd too, was in so deranged a
condition that it has required sometime to place it in a condition to be
made available, J)uTin£ the past year a healthy immigration har
181 ^
been steadily pouring into the county, filling up the waste and un-
settled places, and a number of competent and efficient teachers oi both
sexes, have also settled in our midsty who propose making teaching
a profession, and I doubt not that in a shore tin^e we can boast of as
good a system of schools as any of our sister counties. The schools
throughout the county are being systematized, and a number of school
houses, some of them very good, have been built during the past year
which indicates that there is a spirit of pride and progress among oui^
citizens in regard to their educational interests.
We have, as yet, no schools furnished as we desire, with furniture
apparatus, etc., but hope that this defect, will, to some effect be re-
moved during the coming year. Notwithstanding we have done much
toward the advance of the cause of learning, and the diffiusion of
knowledge, among all classes, here more still remains to be done be-
fore we can have even an ordinary system of common schools. Old
prdudices and old fogyism has. to be fought down and crushed out,
and the people must be awakened and made alive to the fact that it
is not for the best in all things ^^to travel the way our fathers have
trod.'*
My examinations are private, and oral, I generally propound such
questions as involve the practical or theoretical parts of the science
or branch upon which I am examining. The certificates which I have
given are generally of second and third class, and many have been
licensed' to teach that would not, had it been possible for all the
schools to be supplied with better teachers. The school law I con-
eider a good one, and though it may be defective in some parts, I think
when it is rightly understood, and properly enforced, will certainly,
prove an invaluable aid to our public schools, though it generally
meets here with but little favor.

Treasurbr's Office, City of Jefferson, Mo;^ ]
January, 1, 1869.
To the Twenty-Hfth Oeneral Assembly of the State of MUaouri :
I have the honor of submitting this my final report of the opera*
tions of this office.
Ae^ularly, in pursuance of law, it would embrace the operations
of the Treasury for the last biennial period entire. But^ necessities
which the extraordinary business of the office seemed to create, re-
quired a report to the Acijourned Session of the Twenty-fourth 0>en-
eral Assembly, for the first half of that period, that is, from October
1, 1866, to September 30, 1867. Such report was made and submitted.
It is requisite, therefore, that this should be for the subsequent year
and three months only, remaining unreported.
TREASURY — ^BALANCE OCTOBER 1, 1867.
For assistance to a full understanding of the subject, a statement
of cash in the Treasury, designating the respective funa to which it
belonged, on the first day of October, 1867, is here reproduced, from

HANNIBAL AND ST. JOSEPH BAILROAD BONDS.
Ihe item of bonds of the State in aid of the Hannibal and St
Joseph railroad, now in the Treasury, is explained in this wise : The
law providing for the sale ot the Missouri racific railroad to the Mis-
souri Pacific Eailroad Company, for five millions dollars, authorized
the payment of the sum in "Missouri State bonds." Under this au-
thority the company made the payment in the '*Bonds of the State,"
including these,— $167,000 — in aid of the Hannibal and St. Joseph
railroad. They may be properly classed with the cash assets of the
Treasury, as the interest on them ($5,010, semi-annually) is promptly
met by the company, and may be, at any time, used in retiring an
equivalent amount of the bonds of the State, the interest of which the
roads, they were issued in aid of, have, by their default, compelled the
State to pay.
•
UNITED 8IATES BONDS.
The item of "Bonds of the United States," in the Treasury, will
be understood to refer to the purchase required by an "act to create
a permanent school fund," approved March 12, 1867, which appro-
priated $1,500,000 of war indemnitor money from the United States, to
be invested by the State Treasurer in the six per cent registered bonds
of the United States. It includes that investment, and the purchase
of coupon bonds of the United States, with the premium arising f!rom
the sale of the gold interest on the registered bonds, making an aggre-
gate of $1,505,397, for bonds, premium and cash.
COMPREHENSIVB REVIEW.
It is deemed not inappropriate, in this connection, to present a
condensed statement of the operations of the Treasury, during my
term, commencing February 4, 1865, and ending December 31, 1868:
Affgjegate receipts $22;113,6aO OTT
" Auditor's warrants paid $7,262,543 85
" Union Military Bonds^ Defense Warrants, Wolfscalps,
etc., retired 5,317,899 81
<' state Bonds and coupons retired 7,019,675 00
" War Debt, Gamble's checks, retired..... 102,570 60-
" United States bonds purchased, and cost, held as cash in
treasury 1,605,397 00
'' Hannibal and St. Joseph bonds, held as cash 167,000 00-
'' Railroad tax receipts, held aa cash 146 29
'' Current funds 738,547 52
$22,113,680 OT-
6
No account is taken herein of the sam of war indemnity money
from the United States, that was applied to the payment of past due
interest, about three millions dollars. It did not pass through the
hands of the Treasurer, but was handled by the fund commissioners,
in the manner designated by law.
The magnitude of these operations may justly challenge compari-
son with any other like period's in the history of our State ; and I have
to congratulate you upon the agreeable fact that they have been con-
ducted without a single loss to the State.
treasubbr's settlements.
The first conclusive examination and settlement of the affairs of
my office was made by a committee of the 24th General Assembly,
consisting of Messrs. Winters, Dallmeyer and Ryland.
Following is the list ol credits allowed me by this committee, that
were enterea upon the books of the State Auditor's office, as re-
ported;

long time, in some parts of it, constituting a circulating medium, there

UNION MILITARY FUND.
As it appears from the fpregoing that the pay of Union Mili
8
tary Bonds and Defense Warrants is so nearly completed, it would
seem that the purposes for which the Union Military Fund was created
were quite fully served, and that the balance remaining in the
fund $32l,00i 47, might with salety and propriety be transferred la
some other fund, Interest, say.

four years, may justly command attention :

interest on the railroad indebtedness of the State, since July 1st, 1867,
to date, ^2,120,000, has been paid bv remittances from the treasury.
This has ben accomplished through my agents in St. Louis, the Na-
tional Loan Bank, Accommodation Bans and First National, without
cost to the State. And, in this connection, it is but just that I should
allude to the many facilities and services I have received^ from these
highly respectable and honorable institutions, in the discharge of my
many arduous duties.

jBrPBBSOH City, Missouri, Janaarj ll.J'!^^'
In compliance with the requirement of section 10, ofciute*:?^
of the General Statutes of tho State of Missouri, I be^ leave M^v
fully, to present to the General Assembly, the followinc: rei-or:
On the 6th day of February, lS6:i,I was elected to fill thev^ i*'^
in the office of Commissioner of the Permanent Seat of G,)vern:! '-
orcasioned by the resignation of my predecessor, Peter Jecko. ^ -
missioner.Jecko had lei t the State prior to my election, but ba!
made any formal surrender of the State property in his charge ui «'•'
one, nor had he made out for his successor an inventory of sail rrt
erty, no'r left any record of his official acts. When, therefore. I ^-
tered upon the duties of my office, I had no certain knowledge •': '
description or atnount of State property, which had been in tue^^
tody of my predecessor, but I took charge of all such property ^*
could find.
Tlie walks through the capitol pounds, leading: tx> the c.v
were in a miserable condition, and I at once proceeded to imp
them.
The capitol itself, I found in great need ot repairs, both extern
and internally. The dome, for want of paint, was becoming corr •* -
and all the wood work*of the exterior was, from the same cause, l^ '
to decay. I therefore, had the dome and all the wood-work ot tl.o^i
terior well painted, and the ball and vane over the dome re-^i- -
1 also had the wood work of the interior well painted, deeming u -c
cessary both for its preservation and decent appearance.
The ceiling of the Senate chamber was loose and dilapiu^-^"^
and liable at anv time to fall, thus rendering it unsafe to ocru;y "
chamber any long:er until it should be repaired, therefore, I iun
old ceiling entirely removed, and a new one put in, and wlj^e :ti
chief object was to secure a substantial and durable oeilini!, a: "
lowest, reasonable cost, yet I did not deem it inappropriate to pay
some regard to taste in ifs construction.
The carpet on the floor of the Senate chamber was well nigh
worn out, and it was necessary to replace it with a new one, which I
have had done. I have also had new curtains hung upon the windows
of both the Senate chamber and the Hall of the House of Representa-
tives.
The old curtains were of scarlet color, which gave to the light
passing through them a very mischievous effect upon the eyesight.
The House ef Representatives, by resolution, last winter, ordered the
removal of the red curtains from the windows of the hall.
In purihasing new curtains, I selected preen as the most appro-
priate color for the protection of the eyesight. I have had anew
pump put into tLe cistern, in rear of the capitol, the old one be
ing unserviceable, and have purchased a sufficient length of hose to
reach from the pump to any part of the building in case of fire. This
I considered a prime necessity.
Last spring I set out a great many trees in the capitol grounds,
but owing to the excessive heat add drouth of the succeeding sum-
mer, and the ravages of grasshoppers, a large proportion of them
died. I replaced them in autumn, with fresh trees, which I think,
will, with proper care, take root and thrive.
With a view to the completion of the stone fence or wall around
the capitol grounds, I purchased, last spring, the necessary tools for
quarrying and cutting stone, intending to have as much of the work
done by the State prison convicts as possible, I procured the privilege
of taking, lor this purpose, out of a certain quarry in the vicinity, all
the stone that I could get out before winter, by paying the owner of
the quarry what it had cost him to opep it. But advantageous as the
terms of this arrangement were, I was unable to accomplish anything
like what I hoped to do, in pursuance thereof, because I could not
procure the labor ot the convicts.
When I applied, from time to time, to the Warden of the State
Prison for convicts to quarry and cut stone for the fence of the cap-
itol grounds, he refused them to mo, on the plea that the convicts
were otherwise employed. Now, I do not question that they were
otherwise employed^ nevertheless, it is a notorious fact that many of
them were hired out to private individuals in Jefferson City, and not
a few of them were employed in the cultivation and improvement of
the Warden's own farm, both before and after I asked for, and was
denied, their labor to prepare stone for the fence of the capitol
grounds. It is true, however, I obtained a few of the convicts for that
purpose, late in the season, and I havo now about twenty of them
employed, preparing stone for the fence.
At the solicitation of the Governor, I made an inspection of the
Governor's mansion and grounds. I found the mansion in a state of
great dilapidation. Some of the foundation walls were cracked, and
in danger o4* giving away entirely. All the woodwork was very much
decayed. I had the foundation walls of the kitchen so repaired as to
render them safe for the present. But such is the general dilapida-
tion of the mansion, that it is impossible so to repair it as to make it
really comfortable. The erection or purchase of a new mansion for
the use of tlie Executive, appears to be an inevitable necessity, if due
regard is paid to the comfort of the Governor, and the honor and dig-
nity of the State.
The stone wall enclosing the mansion grounds is bent out and rent
iu many places, atfd ready to tumble down. It cannot be repaird
It will have to be taken away, and replaced by a new one.
The Aimory building requires a new roof. When it was erecte^i
the timbers used for the support of the roof were green. As mi^i:
be supposed, they greatly shrank as they became seasoned, and s:
contracted the roof as to cause it to leak. This defect cannot :?
overcome, but by the removal and reconstruction of the entire roi4
The trophies of war, the relics, arms and other valuable property i!
the State, are all constantly liable to damage from the leaking of lL^
roof. It should be repaired without delay.
I would respectfully call the attention of the General AssemV;^
to the condition of the State's interest in certain lots in the city.
Jefferson, heretofore sold to individuals by the State, and which hs^t
never been deeded by the State, and which in many (if not in^^
instances, have never been lully paid for.
The records in my office rel^^ting to these matters are very inc*
plete and unsatisfactory, and I would respectfully suggest'that ri-
Committee on Permanent Seat of Government be desired toexaiub
the same, and report a bill for passage, which will enable metorr
cover the State's interest in these lo:s, and authorize metomi^":
necessary conveyances for the same, on proof of the actnal pajme:
of the amounts due the State.
The sum total of all the accounts approved by me, since I assnsi^
the office of Commissioner, for labor, materials, and sappliee of eTerj
description, is nine thousand one hundred and sixty-seven dollars ^^
ten cent9, of which amount the sum of four hundred and nifl^^J
dollars and forty- five cents was contracted by my predecej^^i^
office.
For the payment of these accounts, the State Auditor hasieticdlu'
warrants upon the State Treasurer to the amount of three ifefi^^'^
five hundred and fifty-seven dollars and nine cents, and certifia^*^^
indebtedness to the amount of five thousand six hundred and ten d^
lars and one cent

The Board of Inspectors of the Missouri Penitentiary, beg leave
to submit to the General Assembly of the State of Missouri, their
biennial report of the government, discipline and transactions of the
institution for the past two years, ending December 2d, 1868, incla-
sive, and its present condition.
From the report of the Warden, Physician, Chaplain and Fac-
tor of the institution, made to your Inspectors, and herewith sub-
mitted as a part of this report, will appear the number of convicts
confined in the institution, the various branches of business in which
they have been employed, the number empIo3'^ed in each branch, the
age, sex and place of nativity of the convicts, their term of imprison-
ment, the offenses for which Ihey were severally committed, irom what
county they were sent, the number of convicts that have escaped or
<lied, or have been pardoned or discharged, during the two years pre-
oeding December 2d, 1868, the quality and quantity of food and cloth-
ing allowed to the convicts, the number that have been punished, the
nature of the punishment, how often inflicted, and for what offen8e3
£ilso, a statement of the contracts for the employment of the con-
victs, and showing, in detail, the financial condition of the prison*
The reports of said officers, being so lull and complete in them-
Belves, your Inspectors submit that it is unnecessary for (hem to enter
EZiore into detail as to the government, discipline or transactions of
the institution, and relying upon said reports as a fair showing, sub-
i33it, with what industry and with what success, they have severally
performed the duties devolved upon them.

WARDEN'S REPORT,
To the Inspectors of the Missouri State Penitentiary:
Gbntlemen : — ^The time having arrived when, by law, it becomes
my duty to make to you a report of the present condition and gen-
eral operations of the penitentiary for the two years last past, I sub-
mit herewith a number of tables, containing, in detail, all the infor-
mation which lam required to impart on the several subjects, to which
they relate.
Passing over, without comment, those tables which are designed
to convey statistical information in relation to the convicts, I invite
your attention to the exhibits in relation to the improvements in
progress at present, on the prison premises.
Foreseeing the necessity of immediate preparations for the con-
finement of largely increased numbers of convicts, as early as April,
1865, 1 addressed to you the following communication :
Office Missouri State Penitentiary,)
April 19th, 1^65. f
To the Inspectors of the Missouri Penitentiary:
Gentlemen: — I feel it a duty incumbent upon me, as Warden, to
3all your attention to the necessity of erecting an additional cell
building for the more safe-keeping of convicts confined here. There
is now less cell-room than there was five years ago. The administra-
tion which preceded mine, found it necessary to remove the old cell
:>uilding, it being in a dilapidated condition, and unsafe for long-sen-
enced prisoners. This building contained forty cells, capable of cell-
ng two hundred convicts; its removal, therefore, leduced the cell
capacity of the prison far below the actual demands.
There are now seventy-two convicts more than there are cells in
he institution, and necessity has compelled me to crowd two into the
arrow limits of a cell, thereby greatly endangering the sanitary coii-
ition of the prisoners, and making them liable to contagious dis-
ases.
Another fact to be considered in this connection, is that the Pres-
lent has designated this prison for the reception of military prison-
rs. This, in connection with the civil courts, is increasing our num-
ers daily, and provision must be made for their safe-keeping.
8
There are now four hundred and twenty-eight prisoners confined
here, one hundied and sixty six of whom have been committed since
January Ist. Of these, one hundred and twenty-three are militarr
prisoners, and from my experience, so far, I am of the opinion that the
number, herealter, will not be decreased by pardons. There is everr
reason to believe that the future, with the same ratio of commitments
and discharges, will very soon increase the number of prisoners fir
above the present capacity of the institution. Setting aside the ne
cessity of increasing the number of cdlls, growing out of the number
of military prisoners, the commitments by the civil courts, alone, wil.,
no doubt, inevitably demand such building.
Before the cell building referred to as bein^ removed was ton
down, there was scarcely room for the safe-keeping of the convicis;
then the civil law is soon to be in force again, and, knowing the de-
moralized condition of many in the country who have been engaged
in bushwhacking and murdering for the last three or four years, it i*
reasonable to suppose the people, when once empowereS with the
law a^ain, will bring such desperadoes to their merited piinishmeiiL
We mayreasonably calculate, therefore, on an increase of convicLN
and wisdom admonishes us to make the necessary preparation to re
ceive them.
Believing you will give this subject your candid attention, xA
that the public good will be properly cared for, I have the honor to
subscribe myself,
Your obedient servant^
H. A. SWIFT,
Warden Missouri J^eniieniij'f.

A. THOMPSON, Auditor. )
This, meeting with your approval, was indorsed by the Governor
in the following language :
Executive Department, Mo^
July ] 2th, 1865.
The Warden of the Penitentiary will proceed at once to employ
such surplus labor, as he may have, to getting materialsior the erecii-.Ti
of a cell building, and he is empowered and directed to proceed to
examine the prisons of other States, which are reputed to be thebesiii
construction and management, with a view to gathering information.
The public necessity requires that all the means in the power of the
Warden be used with vigor to obtain, at the earliest day practicaL! ,
Oiore cell room in the penitentiary.
THOS. C. FLETCHER.
Referring to my former report for the general description of the
new cell building, then just commenced, I report the building st;il
unfinished, but progress toward completion has been made as rapiCiy
as, under the circumstances, it could have been done. All the lab -r
has been devoted to the erection of the building which it was possible
to employ eflSciently for that purpose, but the immense size of ih^
fttructure, and the large amount of cut stone necessary to be used, has
made the building appear to move slowly. From the detailed esii-
9
mate of the work already done on it, you will see that, including the
sum of S-J,912 94 for iron andiron work, the total cost to the date of
this report is *« 132,584 70.
An average of one hundred convicts have been employed, con-
stantly on this building. A fair beginning has been made with the
extension of the walls, a detailed statement of which, shows that thus
far, that improvement has cost $13,4:5 17.
When I state, that from January the 5th, 1S65, to this date, the
number of convicts have increased from 357 to 735, and that the num«
ber of cells fit for use is only 350, you will appreciate the crowded con-
dition of the prison, and feel the importanceof a vigorous prosecution
of the improvements. A separate cell for each prisoner has been
found, in the experience of prison-keepers everywhere, to be indis-
pensable to good order and proper discipline ; indeed, nothing so helps
to keep up a wholesome state of discipline as suitable and convenient-
ly arran^iod prison buildings. Looking at the crowded and uncom-
fortable condition of the prison, I am sometimes astonished that we
have not had more cases of insubordination and disorder than have
occurred. Neither, it seems to me, could so large a number of men
with such surroundings, have been so blessed with the good health
which these have enjoyed, but for the vigilant, energetic and intelli-
gent supervision of the prison Physican, Dr. 0. A. Thompson, and I
take great pleasure in thus publicly attesting his skill as a physician,
and the uniform courteous and gentlemanly deportment, which has
marked his official intercourse with the officers of the prison. Allow
me, in this connection, to remark that the salary now paid the piiysi-
cian is not at all adequate compensation for tite amount of labor per-
iornied, and does not yield him one-fourth the amount that such an
amount of labor would procure in the ordinary practice; indeed, the
time which is necessary to devote to the daily examination of so large
a number of men, necessarily deprives the physician of time for pri-
vate practice.
1 ieel constrained to call your attention to the inadequate provi-
sion made by law for the moral instruction of the convicts, while none
at all has been made for teaching even the rudiments of our language
to such as are wholly uneducated, and to suggest that if a sufficient
salary were allowed to secure the services of a resident chaplain, both
the moral and educational wants of the convicts would be much bet-
ter supplied. The education of State criminals is no new idea of mine,
but in many States the experiment has been made, and, after a fair
trial, has been found to be most desirable not simplj' as a recreation
or means of mitigating, to some extent, the wearisome routine of
prison labor and prison life, but for the invaluable blessing which it
confers alike on men in all conditions of life. Prison keepers are bet-
ter able than others to know how gladly a convict who is unable to
read, embraces every opportunity to get instruction from his more for-
tunate fellow prisoners ; what a favor he esteems it to be allowed to
10
spend the Sabbath under circumstances that will insure to him a day
of study. ^
The obligation of the State in this behalf would seem absolutely
imperative, when we consider that fifty-nine per cent, of the convicts
are between the ages of sixteen and twenty-five years, who have been
drawn into crime, for the first time, perhaps, because their ignorance
fitted thorn only for the lowest walks of life. How strange it seems
that the State should have made such enormous appropriations of its
revenues for the benefit of common schools, that legislators should
have been so filled with compassion for the poor and unlettered chil-
dren throughout her borders, and yet no thought or sympathy of theirs
has gone out after her young criminals. Better far to care for them and
educate them, while they are suffering the penalties of violated law^
than to turn them loose again on society, more ignorant than befora
In my first report, I indicated at length, the principles of prison dis-
cipline which seemed to me the best. I have had no reasons to change
my opinions then expressed, but on the contrary, experience has con-
firmed me in the opinion that humane treatment is every way better,
as well for prison officers, as for convicts, than harsh and vigorons
punishment In the punishment, thereiore, which I have found it
necessary to inflict, I have resorted, in all cases, almost, to confine-
ment in the dungeon, or bread and water for a time, proportionat-e to
the off;?nse, or until sufficient evidence of penitence assured the of-
fender's release. I have found it, in a few instances, necessaiy,as I
thought, to resort to the lash, but only for the very grave offenses,
which you will find stated in the proper table.
There is a great diversity of opinion amongst prison disciplinari-
ans as to the value of the lash as a punishment, some claiming that it
cannot be safely dispensed with, while others detest and abhor iU and
while I would not recommend the establishment, by law, of any
single means of punishment, I am fully satisfied that before the light
of intelligent investigation, the lash will disappear from prison appli-
ances, and isolation, on hard fare, will be in universal u<e^ because by
this latter mode, reason is invoked to assist her sway over the rebel-
lious spirit, and the gnawings of hunger are quite as subduing, if not
as excruciating as the lash.
But it is not by punishment that men are to be reformed. Pun-
ishment is intended to subdue and to coerce, that is its ofllce, nothing
else. But the discipline which elevates and ennobles the subject, by
inducing him to act from principle, not from fear, which appeals to his
pride, his honor, and his self-respect, and brings these nobler attri-
butes of his nature into play, shaping his prison life, and governing
all his actions, is that which will work out for the convict a far more
enduring respect for the law, which claims his obedience; and what
are we to hope from any man who knows the law only to despise it,
and studies it only to elude its grasp? The worst convicts are those
who curse the law and deny their obligations to obey it, and when
11
men, who are not under the laws sentence, harbor the same senti-
ments in their bosoms, they are n.'^t convicts only because their time
has not come. Of all the inflaences for good upon prison life, which
it has been my. privilege to observe, there is nothing that compares
with the commutation law. The operation of this law gives a man a
work to do in securing to himself a shorter term of imprisonment
than he was adjudged worthy to endure, when, therefore, he sees that
an effort will amount to something, when the fetters are removed and
he is created a free agent again, all the better impulses of his nature
spring into life again, and he becomes strong in his purposes to be
worthy of the reward held out to him, nothing turns him then from
the path of duty, but he presses steadily forward for the prize, and in
the effort to become free by virtue of bis own good conduct, he be-
comes a new creature, a better man,
The labor of the convicis has been contracted for by several
firms, to the extent of all the available hands, not required in the pro-
secution of the improvements before referred to. The contract price
was sixty-five cents per day, except in the cigar shop, which was fifty
cents per day, and so continued until the last Legislature interfered
and reduced the price to forty centB per day, thereby reducing the re-
venues of the institution $21,601 42 per annum. The contract system
is liai>]e to many objections, which I shall not stop to enumerate, but
will only refer to the fact, that the interest of the contractor is not al-
ways identical with the well-being of the convict The tendency of
the system is to exaction of more work than the convict can for a
length ot time perform, and hence to guard against any clashing of
interests or conflict of authority, the following rules and regulations
were adopted by the Inspectors of the Missouri State Penitentiary in
relation to contractors.
1. The State, through her proper oflBcers or employees, does not
relinquish her care, control or oversight of such convicts as may be so
employed or allow them to be over-tasked or over-worked.
2. All extra work done by the convicts, and the payment there*-
for, shall be subject to such rules and regulations as may be from time
to time prescribed by the Inspectors relating thereto, and subject to
the supervision of the Warden.
3. The conttactors, their agents, foremen, or employees, are not
permitted to allow any perquisite emoluments, payment or reward of
any kind to the convicis, nor are they permitted to give them (the
convicts), a book or any other thing, or grant them any favor without
the permission of the Warden.
4. The contractors are to have only such intercourse with the con-
victs in their employ as may beactually necessary in conducting their
business. In no case shall the contractors, or either of them, their
agents, foremen, or employees, be permitted to inflict any punishment
or chastisement upon any convict. And the consent of the Warden
13
shall be obtained before any person can pass through the gates of the
prison to be employed among the prisoners.
5. All violations of the rules adopted for the government of the
prison, on the part of the convicts are required to be immediatelj
reported to the guard in whose immediate charge, the men so em-
ployed are.
6. A days' work shall be ten (10) hours, from April first to Octobei
first, and eight (8) hours from October first to April first.
One of the foregoing rules, it will be seen, allow the contractors,
under certain restrictions to pay the convicts, for overwork. Over-
work is an incentive to cheerful indus^try, which, in my judgmenL
should at all times be encouraged. I have found that all convicts are
glad of the opportunity to earn something for themselves, even
though it be a trifle, and I am sure that a law allowing the convict a
certain small interest in his earnings, would be next in value, as an
aid to the discipline of the institution, to the commutation law, and
with two incentives to good conduct and persevering industrvjii*
He else would be needed in the proper managemenjt of the piisoners.
The man who is encouraged to do right by the hope of liberty, nnJ
the reward of industry, is not likely to jeopardize the one or relin-
guish the other when he shall be restored to the conditions of a free
man again. The objection is made sometimes that the possessioo of
money 'is a temptation to the convict to make improper use of iU
when the proper restraints are placed upon them, the argument is
fallacious. The most natural use that can be made of moneveirned
in prison, is to apply it fo» the benefit of the families of the convicuoi
else to lay it up until the expiration of their sentence, that tbey may
have something at command which shall seive them until thevcin
get work. Sometimes it is esteemed a privilege to be allowed to ex-
pend it for little articles of comfort, that msLj be allowed. Sox^
times, by contributions, they purchase something for the genera! ia*
terest, ss for instance, an organ for the chapel. So that while one in
twenty would, or might make an unwise or improper use of his money.
nineteen would husband it for a proper object.
I have continued to extend as many extra privileges as I con=:u-
ered necessary ; have continued to give them holidays, and have beei
favored with several interesting lectures by gentlemen visiting tLe
city, and have found such things to have a good influence.
I have the same unfavorable report to make of the female d>
partment of the prison. Its wants of adaptation for the purposes :.f »
prison is observed by all who visit it, and I repeat the rccommen lo-
tion, that something better suited for the purpose be devised at t^e
earliest practicable time.
A new steam-boiler has been purchased since the date of my hs:
report, and the water privileges of the prison have been greatly juc-
mented by the addition of a force pump, of sufficient power to supi^y
all the departments of the prison with an abundance of water.
13
{ The prison is lighted by oil lamps; it is needless for me to remind
yon that the risk of fire from inflammable oils is of itself a sufficient
^ reason for the substitution of the safer and every way more conven-
• lent mode of lighting by gas ; we narrowly escaped a conflagration
^ from that cause last summer* Gas is safer, more cleanly, less expen-
sive, and more convenient. . With gaslight, every lamp and all the
I pipes can be under the instanetanous control of a single hand, and the
risk of fire very greatly reduced,
) I desire to appropriately acknowledge the faithful and efficient
r services of the Deputy Warden, Major L D. Wright^ and to return him
;• thanks for his valuable assistance in the management of the prison,
and also to acknowledge the uniform courtesy of all the officers.
Very respectfully,
HORACE A. SWIFT, Warden.

PHYSICIAN'S REPORT,
rOB TBI
fEARS 1867 MD 1868, ENDING DECEMBER 6TH. 1868.
PHYSICIAN'S REPORT.
To the Honorable Board of Inspectors of the Missouri State Peniten^
tiary :
Gentlxmsn : — It has heretofore been the privilege of the medical
officer of the Missouri State^Penitentiary, to furnish your honorable
board, a flattering report of its sanitary condition and uniform good
health of its inmates. A like exemption from disease (as will be seen
by exhibits, herewith submitted), enables me to report the continu-
ation of a high standard of health, during the last biennial period.
* This immunity from disease is, in the main, attributable to a
healthful location, and the general exemption from disease of the con-
tiguous community. True, the laws of health have not been oyer--
looked, nor sanitary measures disregarded, but with an overcrowded:
population, hygiene has been most difficult of attainment, and ofjten.
most unsatisfactory in results.
With a capacity entirely inadequate to the wants of its present
inmates, and crime undiminished, it is to be feared the future will not
furnish as gratifying results as the past In fact, it is manliest to the
medical observer, that overcrowded cell and vitiated atmosphere, is
already laying the foundation of disease, suffering and death.
Tubercular consumption and scrofula, those deadly foes of hu-
manity, though insidiously, are surely asserting their right to flourish
in the vitiated atmosphere of the institution. Man cannot violate the
laws of his physical being with impunity. A healthy locality, a mild
and salubrious climate, may, for a time, ward- off the epidemic or stay -
the pestilence, but,.in the light of my own experience, applied to the>
;)re8ent condition, I fear we may be drifting to .an ugly issue, tho unt
nistakable indications of which, are but too plainly visible, to. the
experienced eye.
The erection of the new cell building, the extension of the yard, ,
^nd the many other improvements projected and in the course of coi^-^
tniction, admonish me that these dire consequences have all been>
oreseeu, and wisely acted upon, and I will o^ly express the hope that
T'hatever delay is unavoidable, may n^.t, unhappily, prpve the direct ,
ause or introducent o$ sickness, contagion aivlj death. WHh sfich

cheering prospects of the future,! gladly dismiss the gloomy presen
Looking to the early completion of these much-needed and wisel
begun works, including the most approved system'of sewerage, yenl
lation, heating and lighting, I confidently predict an early exemptic
from disease, equalled by few, and surpassed by no other institDtic
of the kind in our country.
There has been a marked exemption from disease of the mii
But two cases of well-defined insanity have occurred ; one is restore
to reason; the other is an inmate of the hospital, with a broken c(g
stitution, presenting but little prospects of radical cure.
Nostalgia (or home sickness) has frequently manifested itself ii
the recent convict, but so mild as to hardly claim the attention of t^^
physician. The improved diet and humane treatment received, Kiit
to the mental stimulus of labor, often causes the new-comer to r^
joice, that he has, at last, escaped the filthy surronndings andp^:-
lential atmosphere of one of those county institutions called j^i
Be this as it may, the fact is, a very large proportion of the conri
received, are in an unhealthy condition, nearly all attributing tir.
sickness to protracted confinement in jail.
The inmates in the female department have, also, escaped §i:^
ness, unless child-hirth^ of which three have occnrred, may be r*
garded a departure. But, to the credit of the prison, I will add, VJ
all three were admitted in that condition, necessitating obstetrii^
treatment. Much praise is due the Matron (Mrs. So llivan), for it-
management of those unfortunate, though depraved and alModoQ^
women. Failing health, I regret to say, may cause her to retire ir<:
that position, which she has held so long and so acceptably to all
Venereal disease has claimed much of my attention. So great
the number suffering with one form or another of this disease, vk
admitted, that I am led to believe its relation to crime is nearljK^
agous to that of oauae and effect. I think research would streng--^
this conclusion.
By reference to exhibit No. l,it will be seen that sixty-eigntci*
of wounds have been admitted to the hospital for treatment, of vti
three have died (as will )ippear in exhibit No. 2); one upon the rece^
of the. ii^'ury, another from contusions of the chest and eemp^ ^
fracture of the leg, for which ampntation was performed, and the :u
died of tetanus, resulting fi'om an incised wound of the foot Idc"
expect a diminution of this class of cases, carelessness and unski. -'■
ndss being the leading characteristics of persons oompelled-to U^
Prison punishment, disciplinary in character, fh>m its hje«
bearings, should be regarded a legitimate subject of Slate medi.J
and as such, claim the attention of the physician. j
' No mode of punishment has yet been devised against wfaicb]"^
founded objections are not raised. ^The humanity of the age j
called) hicr W^l-nigh abolished the la6h,it only being administerad i|

I regret to say, there yet remains one other mode of punishment,
much in vogue in this and other penitentiaries, against which more
potent objections should be urged, than those already so justly urged
against the lash itself. I refer to the practice of punishing by solitary
confinement in the *' blind cell."
My objection is founded in the very nature of those conditions,
essential to healthy physical being and mental vigor, pure air and
lights deprived of these, animal and vegetable life would become ex-
tinct. I think it not only falls short of compelling obedience, but, if
protracted for several days, or even hours, will not only endanger life
but render the subject incapable of appreciating the object had in
view. In fact, such a system of punishment endangers not only the
life, but likewise the mental sanity of every one so treated.
I would long hesitate before advocating a general and rigorous
return to the ^^strap," and meanwhile will indulge the hope, that your
honorable board will institute other modes of punishment, by which
that of the ^ blind cell " may be abolished in toto.
The hope of reward so generously held out to all, and the uniform
kindness of treatment, commends itself to the good everywhere; to
no one more favorably than to the physician, whose only intercourse
with the convict is during sickness.
In conclusion, I am under obligations to those connected with the
prlsoa, for their many acts of kindness, but more especially to the
Warden and Factor, for the efficiency with which they have seconded
every suggestion for the maintenance of health, and care of those
suffering with disease.
With these brief and imperfect hints, bearing (as I believe) upon
the present and prospective sanitary condition of the institution, the
following exhibits of the last biennial period, are respectfully sub*
mitted.

FACTOR'S REPORT
FACTOR'S REPORT,
Factor's Office, Missouri State PDnrEKiLiBT.
Jefferson City, Mo., January 16, 1^<>9.
To the ITonorable Board of Inspectors Missouri State J^enii^niiirj,
Jefferson City^ Mo.:
Gents: I have the honor to submit to you :
1. Annual statement of the financial condition of the Missonh
State Penitentiary for the fiscal year ending December 7, 1868.
2. Detailed statement of cash receipts during the same time.
3. Detailed statement of cash disbursements daring the same
time.
4. Detailed statement of expenses incurred and labor done b
the extension of walls and erection of new cell building, during ibe
same time, and
5. Statement showing the labor done by convicts in same tim^^
for which no payment will be received.
In reeard to the feeding of convicts, which is the most expensive
account, I beg leave to mafe the following statement :
The subsistence of all convicts confined in the Missouri
State Penitentiary, cost the State, in the last fiscal
year, the sum of. 958,1*26 :^
Less provisions on hand, at the close of the year. I,9i9 1>^
Net cost for subsistence. $56,196
»^?
The average number of convicts during the past year, was W
male and female prisoners per day, which will reduce the total cc^
for feeding one convict per day to the sum of 21f cents.
The deficiency for the excess of the liabilities can be main'r
attributed to labor performed by convicts without payment to the
institution, as illustrated in the accompanying statement, and al&ot^
the closing of .the contract for the harness and saddlery departmes..
by which seventy-five convicts per day were drawn out of a pavir-
employment.
Hoping this report will meet with a favorable consideration,
I have the honor to remain.
Very respectfully,
EDWARD SCHUKLLER

CHAPLAIN'S REPORT.
To the Board of Inspectors of the Missouri Penitentiary:
Gentlemen: — In offering my biennial report, I desire to acknowl-
edge, with profound gratitude, the goodness of the Almighty Goiio
the measure of health enjoyed through the past two years. Bat very
few, comparatively, have died.
During the past year, there has been a deep interest manifested en
the subject of religion. This interest Was first noticed among •• few.
who expressed an earnest desire to converse wuth the Chaplain oniii?
subject of the salvation of the soul.
I feel certain that some of these persons gave their hearts to Go i.
and found peace with Him, through our Lord Jesus Christ. This state
of interest continued to manifest itself in others, until, finally, I waf
deeply impressed with the necessity of organizing a prison chureh.
Since the organization, 126 have sent me written applications fo:
church membership, with a brief account of their religious experience.
In this connection, permit me to mention a visit from the dole-
gates of the State Sunday School Convention, which met, recently, ir.
Jefferson City, which was attended with the very best of const-
quences. These earnest christian men and women spent an hour il
the chapel with the pri'soners, in religious exercises, which consistr^
in short exhortations, singing and earnest, believing prayers.
In the midst of these devotional exercises, men who were t--'
most hardened in sin, and seemed to be almost beyond the reacL • :
hope, scoffers, atheists, men who would have been last selected -^
likely to become the subjects of religious impressions, were awaker>. '
b}^ the spirit of God, and, I believe, made "partakers of the li«^ .'*
(jhost" — became "new creatures in Christ Jesus."
While I admit that tliere has been a great deal of insinct:/;
among these persons, yet, I cannot doubt, for a moment, that n^ i-
have been truly converted, and are, to-day, genuine christians, f-
great question now with many is, what shall I do to be saved .^
Indeed, it seems to be the all-absorbing question with many,
am aware that there are many who have but little faith in the reu-ri- *
ation of convicts in the penitentiary, and ask, can these character?. ^ '
depraved, so lost to every virtue, be reclaimed?

I answer, Jesus is able to save to the uttermost. If motive can
elevate the minds, if the grace of God can reach the heart, the crim-
inal can be reformed. Earthly distinctions are nothing with God.
Religious services are held, regularly, every Sabbath, at 3 o'clock,
in the chapel. Our services, of late, have been unusually interesting
and solemn — the behavior, uniformly good.
I have devoted considerable time in visiting the cells, and con-
versing, personally, with the prisoners* By so doing, I have been en-
abled to learn the exigencies of each individual case, and, after having
listened to the expression of earnest desires for counsel and prayer,
have given them such instruction as their diversified cases seemed to
require.
Our choir is still composed of convicts, instructed and led by one
selected for the purpose, from their own number. They are permitted
to meet every Saturday afternoon, and spend an hour in rehearsal.
Their performances adds vjery much to the interest of the chapel ser-
vices. Frequently, the entire congregation is invited to join m sink-
ing familiar hymns, which has a tendency, of ten, to revive the memory
of earlier and better days.
Many of these hymns were sung around the altar of prayer in the
family circle, and the natural tendency of singing the same old famil-
iar hymns, is to l)ring back old home influences, and not unlrequeiitly
has it been the case, that whilst participating Ireely in this part of tiie
religious exercises, the unbidden tear has been observed in the eyes
of some not accustomed to weeping.
When a death occurs, the body is conveyed to the chapel. The
luneral services are generally held at 12 o'clock. Brief remarks are
made, appropriate to the occasion. At the close of these services,
the coffin is opened, and placed in a position where each prisoner, in
passing out of the chapel, may see the remains of the deceased.
These funeral obsequies are always deeply solemn and impressive,
producing an effect frequently that could not have been brought
about otherwise.
The prison library is one of our most efficient agencies. I regard
it as one of the greatest auxiliaries in reforming these unfortunate
class of men, found in a State prison. It is to be regretted that we
have not a better library. Many of our books are badly mutilated ;
others are not adaj^ted to the wants of prisoners. An acquisition of
oOJ Avoll-selected volumes to our library, would be of incalculable
benefit. Knowing the eui^crness with which good b.^oks are sought
alter, and the attention givoii to the reading of them, and the limited
number of suitable books, I again plead for a liberal appropriation,
for the purpose of replenishing our library. It is an instrumentality
upon which I place great reliance.
I have now in the library, 1,103 volumes. The character of the
books are as follows :
