Michigan State Education
The sharp conflicts in overcoming those obstacles were more deeply impressed upon the memory of the writer, by many years' experience, alternately in the house and senate of the state. But without enlarging here upon the delays and embarrassments thus encountered, we will simply remark, that through a watchful legislative supervision the educational scheme shadowed forth in our first organic law, touching the organism and maintenance of our primary schools, has been revised, improved and rounded into symmetry, until, by ascending grades of study and attainment, it reaches upward to the very doors of the
University.
In its perfection of detail and its practical working capacity, that system may now safely challenge a peer in the entire sisterhood of American states. With due economy in the outlay of funds, for three-fourths of the year, our district school may be pronounced to-day self-sustaining and free of rate-bill or tuition charge.
