Barwidc of the public school system to

•lay morning Ixifi're Judge Mitchell and
petitioned that cctitcil le.ic*. allowed
to dertnre tl e malt cf ifS Thcrtday’w
election Jndge . Mitchell gronfed a.
tein>forary resin* talng order, .and set
Dec. 2nd as the date for the hearing of
the case.
The retiJicn alleges a number cf rea
sons why the result©! the election should.
a uot be declared It claims,,
Firft. That the published notice of
the election vriut not addi’esped to the
qualified voterc of the city; that the
notice whs not signed by the persons
having power to levy taxes and incur
debts for t» e city, namely tiro mayor
lid aldermen: that it does not specify
the terms of the contract under which
ihe debt Is to be incurred; flint it re
cites no order or resolution of council
giving authority to the city clerk to '
notify the voters of a municipal electiou;'
that it docs not specify the amnout of
interest to 1 e paid aunuslri, nor when
it uhall te fully pad.
Second.' That the tnaasperg of Iho
election, being without a certified copy
of the city registration list from tl»«
treasu"or, allowed a large number of
votefl to h:» is lied in violation of law.
Third. That cmlv three nro qualified
who-e naujoe appear on ti e fegistmtim
list furnished by the registrars to the
city of Thomasvillo, and tint this list
uninbeis u2D names.
Fourth. That tho laws governing
the city of Thoamsvilip save no person
shall vote in any mnnicipal election
whatever, whoso name is not on tho
registration list, and that no election in
legal nuless the managers be fornislied
with three certified copies of this llst r
and that this was uot done at the elec
tion referred to. -
Fifth Tnat a two thirds vote of the
qualified voters of the city is neceasary
to make lawful the incurring of each a.
debt as. that contemplated; that only
488 votes were polled in all and that 92
of those, not being registered, were
illegal and ought not to he counted and
that fewer than two-thirds of the re
maining number of legal votes were
‘ For incurring debt for electric light
plant.
Sixth. That the Mayor and council
would, unless r-strained, meet on Mon-
day night Nov. 14th, and declare the
result of the election to be in favor of
incurring the debt ‘referred to; that
they would thereupon destroy-the lad-
lots. tally sheets, voters lists and all
oilier evidences and that the defendant
would lose all power thereby to protect
himself as a taxpayer in the premises.
Seventh. That the act of the General
Assembly, approved Aug. 1?, 1901, under
which the election wav he'd, waa on-
constitutional, said act oonferrin# the
power on counties and municipalities
to incar debts without regard to tho
limitations named in the constitution.
~ Eighth. That there is no statutory
provision for contesting such an electioo
and no remedy for the wrong except
through a court of equity.
Plaintiff, for these and other carnet,
prays that defendants be required to
appear at the April 1203 term of Snpertor
Court to answer the complaint; that an
order be issued immediately forbidding
the defendants from declaring the re
sult of the election until tlfe further
order of court. That on a day
specified the defendant* be made to
show why the temporary order should
not continue until the regular trial;
that any citizen of Ttioinasville may be
came party to this cause; that the de
fendants shall be made to bring into
court the ballots, tally sheets and voters
lists used to show . how many of the
votes cast were not registered, etc., and
that the city shall be enjoined from
entering into any contract for an elec
tric lighting plant under and by virtue
of this election.
The temporary injunction was grant
ed, and Dec. 2nd, set as the day for
when it shall be determined whether or
not the injunction be made permanent,
This step on the part of the light
Company was no surprise, U having been
freely predicted. It seems now that a
long legal fight over the matter is inevi
table.

The work of these grades is splendid and
their discipline good. They are polite,

and best of all seem to be in-erected iu
what they are doing. They can draw a
