Mr. Me- , ,. injol '- ,. irw j e many friends while " nc;e, a m ( t h e y very much regtet hi Another Month Given. The committees that were ap¬ pointed the first Tuesday in Septem¬ ber to get an expression from their sections in regard to laying otf the county into school districts anil to report, the result the first Tuesday in this month were not all here last Tuesday, and the matter was post¬ poned another month before final ac¬ tion should he taken. The principle of letting the majority rule is con¬ ceded to be right in most of matters. YVc don’t know how the majority of the people stand on this measure in Franklin county, and arc frank to say that in our opinion the law docs not allow them the right to decide the matter in any way, but puts the matter in the hands ol’ the county hoard, and says to them plainly and unmistakably that they siiai.i. lay oft the county into districts, etc. Now if the law is wrong have it re¬ pealed, and if not repealed have it enforced. There is a law compelling the county board to lay the county off into school districts, just the same that there is a law compelling the county school Commissioner to pay over the public funds to the teachers of public schools. There is just as much reason in appointing committees to see if the people in the different sections of the county are willing to pay their taxes as to appoint them on this matter. En¬ force the law or repeal it is the only reasonable conclusion that can be reached. Woman's Missionary Society. The AVoman’s Missionary Society of tlie Elberton district will .convene at Carnesville on October the 25th and 20th. Conveyances will meet delegates at Bowersville and at Lavonia on the 24th.
