Ordinary’s Office, Baldwin Co., >
Milledgeville, 25th Sept, 1S72. )
1 To the Citizens of said County:
I A C3rff appeared in the Union 4' Re
corder of the 2-5th inst. hea<1ed “Pub
lic Schools” and signed C. W. Lane,
Piesident, which contains statements,
which, without qualification would
seem to reflect upon me in my official
conduct. No one who knows the rev
erend gentleman, will accuse him of
doing injustice to any one. I, how
ever, fearing that my conduct iu the
matter may be uncharitably, if not erro
neously, animadverted upon, feel it my
duty to make the following plain state
ment of facts.
The Legislature at its last session
passed a special Act organizing a pub
| lie school system in certain counties of
this State. Baldwin with some 44 or
;45 other counties was embraced in it.
Saiil Act was approved 27 th August,
1S72, and repealed all laws conflicting
with it.
The 9th Section is as follows.:—
(Italics my own.) “It shall be the
duty of the Board of Education to
make to the Grand Jury at the Spring
Term of the Superior Court of each
year, a report embracing the general
condition of education in the county,
with any statistical information, or
recommendations, which they may
deem proper ; and the Grand Jury may
with or without such report, recom
mend such a per cent on the State tax
as they may deem proper, if any, to
augment the educational fund of the
county, and it shall be the duty oj the
Ordinary to assess such per cent, and
direct the Tax Collector to collect the
same and pay it to the County Treas
urer, on or before the loth day of De
cember in each year; and it shall be
the further duty of the Boards of Ed
ucation of said counties to exercise a
general supervision over the public
schools and to make such rules and
regulations lespecting the same, not
inconsistent with this Act, as in the
judgment of said Boards will best pro
mote the cause of education in said
counties and diffuse its benefits to the
greatest number of children thereof.”
From this section it will be perceiv
ed, before a tax could be ordered, it
would have to be recommended by
Grand*Jury, and the very first Grand
Jury that could recommend will be
the one of February Term 1S73, it
being the first Spring Term of the
Court, held after the passage and ap
proval of the Act. It will, also, clear
ly appear to every intelligent mind
that the Ordinary has no option or dis
cretion in the matter, for when the
above terms of the Act are complied
with, it is made his imperative duty,
by the Act itself, he is ordered, “it
shall be the duty of the Ordinary to
assess such per cent, and direct the
Tax Collector to collect the same.”
This law is clear and plain, and the Or
dinary has done nothing but abide by
it.
Had it been discretionary, the Ordi
nary would certainly have ordered the
tax assessed and collected.
Why Baldwin county was included
in this special Act, the Ordinary has
no means of knowing; perhaps the
Representatives from the county in
the General Assembly at the time
the Act was passed can explain it.
In conclusion I would say that no
one has the cause of education more
at heart than myself, as my past course
will abundantly show, and no one
feels more sympathy for the tax-paying
portion of our citizens, or will, when
the financial condition of our county,
and the tax-payers ability to stand
taxation becomes improved, more
cheerfully respond to the w’ants of
our children, and pledge myself to la
bor assiduously for free education for
all.
