CHARTER AMENDMENT LOST,
AND SO WAS THE BOND ISSUE
(Continued from page 1).
And to force the closing of the school
the council refused to pass up a vouch
er to pay the teacher and the ex
penses connected with the running of
the grade. But the teacher was paid
and the grade was continued through
the year. This year another grade
was added, giving this city ten grades
to its public school system.
When the gTade continued running
in spite of the action of the council,
one member of that body is said to
have gone before the grand jury to
get assistance in abolishing the grade
by indicting the school board; but
nothing came of it. By the persever
ance of the board, led by Mr. Tram
mell, the schools are now still better
equipped and will, in a short, time, be
a pride to Dalton.
Should Mr. Trammell display the
same ^spirit in managing the city af
fairs as he has in business and in the
schools, and if the council and citizens
support him, Dalton is going to step
forward during his administration.
The First Ward.
In the first ward the candidates for
council ran close. Mr. Wills, who was
elected, received the office by a ma
jority of ten votes. The ward went
against the amendment by a vote of
44 to 21, and against bonds by a vote
of 42 to 23. Trammell was- given 70
votes. j
The Second Ward.
In the second ward, Trammell got
*S5 votes. The amendment carried
there, 19 voting for it and 11 voting
against. Bonds lost by a vote of 20
against to 7 for.
The Third Ward.
Both the amendment and the bonds
were snowed under in the third ward..
For amendment, 18; against, 60; for
bonds, 23; against, 52, This was Mr.
Trammell’s ward and he was given 78
votes, the entire number cast.
The Fourth Ward.
The fourth ward drew the largest
vote, and the champions for and
against the amendment and bonds
were about evenly divided. John
Thomas received the office of council
man, winning over Perry by a majority
of 22 votes. Trammell received 79, his
largest total in any ward. Bonds car
ried by a vote of 35 to 33, and the
amendment was lest by a vote of 35 to
33.
The Fifth Ward.
The fifth ward was another place
where the people sat down heavy on
the amendment and bonds. Mann was
elected over Longley by a majority
of 42 votes, j Trammell got 66 votes.
The amendment was lost by a vote of
44 to 20,.and the bonds were defeated
by a vote of 42 to 20. 1
The Sixth Ward.
In the sixth ward the voting was so
quiet that the polls were closed at
four o’clock. Trammell was given 36.
The amendment was carried by a vote
of 24 to 11, and the bonds by a vote of
19 to 17.
The Seventh Ward.
In the seventh ward the amendment
and bonds were given the frostiest deal
imaginable. Only one man voted for
the amendment, and 24 votes were
against it; while three voted for the
bonds and 21 against them. Trammell
got 25 votes.
The Eighth Ward.
In the eighth ward George King was
returned to the council, being given 25
