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 Saiil Act was approved 27 th August, 1S72, and repealed all laws conflicting with it.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.
