Dr. E. C. Steyer representing
the,IT. S. Bureau of Annual Indus¬
try was sent to Ellijay this week
by Dr. N ^ibert of Atlanta who is in
charge of tick eradication in
North Georgia. It developed for
some reason that Dr. Stever, who
had come to Ellijay to make his
headquarters for the summer, re¬
ceived on the day of his arrival
bore, a telegram from government
headquarters in Washington to pro¬
ceed to Fannin County that Gilmer
could not be considered in the
work. This seems strange indeed,
the counties of Fannin, Newton,
Stephens, Habersham and Frank¬
lin are the fortunate counties to re¬
ceive government help. Gilmer Co
has had considerable work done on
this line and with a little futher ef¬
forts could be f,, eedfrom the cattle

THE QUESTION

contracts will road this: ”8ttch
Pttrt of said salary ns shall have

calendar veai, shall hecome due
and payable r.s som as funds are
received from State treasury. ,
-. We are in Griped that $800 of
i this « .r has paid from
money neon
the State Treasury litotbe hands
of the County Commissioner
weeks ago. The Schools (winter
term) have been finished long ago
and the question is, why does he
not pay what he holds, that is
due, and payable received by j I
him; j
Why is the valiant ‘'defender
of the peoples rights” lying low; the! j
why does he not jump on
present commissioners with both j
hi* no.12’8 for not payirg the
teachers promptly, as soon as the
money is received. He must have
exhausted himself 1 ernring the
former commissioner and Board;
of Education when schools were
taught 5 months of each year ,
And the teachers were paid promp- i
tly, and new, comfortable school |
buildings were being erected, and !

The Educational awakening
which “T. H. T” predicted w -uld \ j
take place when the new commiss
toner and board of eaucation
should take charge, must he nigh j !
at , hand. . ,
i
We are new witnessing some of j
the signs of this awakening. For j
instance quite a number of;
school have only from and two to j
three months per year
divided ip to two terms, Hew long f
will it take to fit a boy for taking |
his place in the business world nr.
the rate of two to thrae months ;
school pyr year in terms of one i
to two lUOiiths. These shorkterml. ;
are oft#n where the people arfe i
