Mr. Editors:—In your very remarka ble editorial under the above head line you say: “For the welfare of our schools, we insist that they should be removed as far as possible from any connection with politics, aiyl to this end we would suggest (Jut th • school charter be so amended a* to make any man ineligible for service on th° School Board who Is related by blood or marriage to any m -mb.r of the fa culty,” Why put the in eligibility on members of the school hoard who are elected by the vote of the people for a term of three yeaii*s? Why-thus make the faculty sup rlor to the Boar and both superior to the people? Do you want to be able to kick a nun elected by the people of the Board whfb does not quietly submit to all the political schemes hatched in your of fice, by electing tils wife's 43th cous in on the faculty foy say 30 days? The principle apparently advocated by you is all right, but your method is all wrong. You further say, “If any one els? has a better plan to offer, we will be glad to advocate it.” I suggest that as the people elect the school board for a term of three years and as the Board elects the faculty for a term of one year, subject to removal In thirty days, that the Chiller be bo I amended to make any person ineligi ble to a position on the faculty who | is related within the fourth degree of consangunity or affinity to any mem ber of the School Board. The Board need not wait for the Legislature to meet to put into effect my Suggestion. It can adopt it as one of its rules, and I promised duilng the recent cam paign to offer a resolution to put it into effect, if the new ticket was elect ed. If you want to steal all our thun der on this question you might prepar and offer such a resolution at the Jan uary meeting of the Board before the new* members are sworn in. I will j vote for it if it comes up to the | proper standard, though 1 might in-1 spect it more closely than Tioy did the Trojan horse. My resolut'on to he submitted on th j first meeting in February will read! as follows: “Resolved, that hereafter no person shall be eligible to a i>osi- J tion on the faculty in the Cedartown) Public School who is r?lited within j the fourth degree of consanguinity o I affinity to any m?mb r of the School I Board." One of the most as onish'ng things about your editorial. Is. that you.with , the knowledge and consent of your! senior editor published as an edi torial a suggestion that. It Is not prop-1 er for members of the Board to be| related to members of the faculty. I This is not by any moms a new ques-1 tion in Cedartown. I have heard of It ever since I have been here and 1 have always contended that the rela tionship should not exist lq a dc- gree nearer than the law allows for j Judges or Jurors, for the reason that i members of the Board are both Judge : and Jury in passing on the eligibility, ) competency, and work of the faculty, and according to all l.-gil principles,! when related within th? fourth) degree j are disqualified to sit in judgmentj thereon: yet, ever sin-- 1 hive been] here tills relationship has existed in | even the first dsgrej. This was th?i paramount i#sue when W. S. Shifletr 1 was eleobed a few years ago, arid wn > , also a prominent feature wlu-n John j. B. Ayers rain for a place on th? Bjrird : and scared a fellow nearly to death. ! Why should any one suggest that; Col. Fielder and I resign? Every body knows that we were for the new | ticket. That we have always b?enop posed to t’h'3 close kin h p o>.Tj :ng 1> - tween the fica’.tv and th? S ii > >I Board, notwithstanding your atmsrti n of my relation to members, i j *r No member of the facility 10 .-.»•/ knowledge ever clafnial any relation^ ship whatever with ni?, and if any of them can trace themselves back to any ancestor of mine I would like to know who it is,and none are close enough kin by marriage to claim It or to dl. qiwlify me according to any 1 - gal principle. 1 will vote for the res olution, herein before .referred to re gardless of what b.'conrs of my al leged kin folks. 1 have no notion of resigning since the election; if I had made myself an issue in the campaign and had lost, by an overwhelming majority I would have resigned before now, but I was with the people for a better school and better service from tile School Board and believed it could be ob tained only by changing th? personnel of the Board. 1 am glad that you have at last agreed to submit to the will of the people in regard to our school, and consider the education of our children, “too valuable by far to be made the means of gratifying the ambitions, jealousies or revenges of any schem ing politician." What a pity you and some others have not had such high ideal3 before! If our school has hot been the “foot-ball of oolltlcs,” I am sure it never will be* If it has not been the “foot-ball of politics” why have some three or four of our most i prominent politicians h:ld on to a ( “thankless and payless” position un til the people have Mlrly shaken them , all aloose but one, and he sees thej handwriting on the wall so plainly, that he announces two^ year3 before j th? expiration of hls^^rm, that wont stand for re-el This hue and cr>y to me to be very much like the cry ! you hear in crowds, “Look out for the pickpockets,” it Is always on * of the i bund that gives the warning and lie* ex;* cts his patt.n;-rs' to be ban?fitted! by ill? cry. 1 lid not know Mr. Stubbs r?si^-! nation from the Bond was tea da red; “because of the unfortunats injec.ion | of poi tics Into its nif jLrs.” Me did j not giv this as his re* on. 11? has token no position Jn politics, to my knowledge, that the result of the elec tion could be construed as a* reflec tion on him. I think he miscon strued some suggestions made by tho voters, thinking that tiny wore fneant for him when they were reuily for another m.mberoi the rio ird. The political or ofric/.l record of any on« is always a matter for .con sideration when ho se ks an office, though it may be both “thankless and payless.” Your friends ! think wr-re tried by their record^ in the re cent campaign and so far us I' am a bid lo judge I can s,<j nothing in the result tlKit should make any one green with jealousy. 3jm» may have voted again t them upon tl)?‘ sam principle that old dog Tray wo killed. When a co.mbln tion of poli ticians g?t to wh -re they cinnot mus ter one hundred votes for their strong est man it is not longer to b? feared | except when it offers gift-a like tlr-° I Greeks did the Trojans. I am sure I have no cause for ven geance against any one connected with th? School, as 1 have no personal Ill- will toward any one connected with th faculty or with th? Schodl Beard And 1 shall continue in the future, as T have clone In the past, to work faith fully and fearlessly for the best Inter ests of the school;and my only reason for saying even this much in a dis cussion of the result of the recent election, which se?ms to be so satis factory to a large majority of our people, is that I do not want my po sition in the matter to l>e misunder stood by those not acquainted with th* facts, which might be the result of allowing your editorial to pass un answered.
