Tho Constitution sighs that not
withstanding the daily papers of At

ly Insisted upon a full registration
for the national election, the books
have closed and a largo number of
tho citizens of that city have, failed
to perform that duty.
There was a conference of tho
bondholders of the Georgia Wont hern
uml Florida railroad held lit Haiti
more last Wednesday, in which the
Georgia bondholders were represent
ed by -Hon, Horaco P. Smart, of St.,
vanirnh. Ifo had vi-ocut'y made a
tour of the road and was in position
to uuawur intelligently any questions
that wia asked rdutivo to its condi
tion.
Hon. Ren K RuaBell und Hr. I. H.
, candidates for congress In the
ml dlstnot, met in joint debate
last Saturday night,
j was being introduced by
recent convert
near
n to
Tlio Cause of Public Schools lu
Itcrricn County.
The jieople of Berrien comity may
la.' divided in sentiment upon some
questions but the Gazkttk firmly
believes that the cause of education
is not one of them.
Tlio unanimity with which two
successive grand juries adopted the
recommendation looking to tho es
tablishment of a graded school sys
tem for tlie county, supported by tliq
regular public school fund and a
small Jlreot property tax, to be en
tirely free to all children of school
itgy, speaks out this fact in no imcor-
tain language.
Jiut this action of tlio grand juries
is not all that is necessary to put the
nmohitiory of the new system in mo
tion—the people must pass upon it
by ballot at an election to bo ordered
fay the Hon. F. M. Hmitli, Ordinary,
and two-thirds of the qualified voters
of tho county must vote in favor
thereof, Then, under the law, the
county hoard of education will be
iiliJjiorlzGll to levy a fax not exceed
ing ono-fourth of one per cent, ad
valorem, on all the taxable property
of the county, us appears by the di
gest, for school purposes.
For thfi convenience of voters this
uti'cliwi will be called for tlio first
Wednesday in January next, tho
same lime ns the election for county
ollluers, duo notice of whioli will be
published in the (1AZETTB not less
than four weeks prior to the election.
Thorc are ninny reasons why the
people of Berrien county should vote
for and adopt tills graded system of
public schools, but whioli cannot be
dismissed here. The inuttor will be
thoroughly ventilated before the elec
tion, and so thoroughly explained to
the voters that they cannot fail to
vote Intelligently on the question.
After all the political turmoil of
the past few months this graded sys
teill of soIiooIh is the one public
qitesltgtt upon whioli all our people
can agree; it can he umdu to cement,
them together once mure in fraternal
accord,
flowers, and otherwise beautify it as
a park. It wifi require' considerable
work, but we believe the citizens will
undertake it. In this matter the la
dies should lie consulted os they have
a bettor conception of flower-garden
ing than men. The Gazkttk would
be glad to have the sentiment of all
the citizens, ladies und gentlemen, on
this subject. Tifton should have a
public park und the Gazette knows
of no better or more equitable wuy of
securing one than Cupt. Tift has
suggested.
A third matter which tins been
suggested for the public good is the
transformation of Hie present school
into a graded one, conducted after
the plan adopted by Quitman, Fort
Valley, and other small cities, where
patrons pay a uniform rate of tui
tion of one dollar a month for all
grades of scholars. This may not
ho feasible in Tifton, but the ques
tion is at luusl worthy of considera
tion.
Tho Gazette calls attention to
these matters und leaves it for the
citizens to say what they will do.
