THE LFGISLATURE TO TACKLE IT
Comrohstoner SrsdvTsll Gives tlse Result
ofthe Act allowing County Boards
to Operate Schools at Any
Time They See Proper,
Atlanta, Sept. 23.—(SpeoluH.)-One of
the -most Important measures in con
nection with the common School eystem
to be brought before the -next general
assembly will be how 'to-bridge over the
difficulty caused toy the Change In the
school year. Formerly -the school year
and 'the calendar year were coincident,
-but since July 1 tihe school year la to be
run from July to July, -oo as to corre
spond with Dhto 11 seal year of the
schools, Et’waa ortglnlally Intended for
.the schools to have an Interregnum of
sit months, from January 1 to July of
the present, year, but the aval was
amended by allowing county boards of
education -to operate the schools a t any
time they saw proper, and the sum of
3300,000 was borrowed from the other
funds In the.-treasury to help pay off
the teachers. Tho amendment alluded
'to virtually .made the school year
eighteen months long, extending from
Jamaary 1, 1894 to June 30, 1895. The
appropriations were not increased, and.
In the opinion of the state school com
missioner and the state board of edu
cation, were only sufficient to operate
-the schools for a term of live months.
Ooun'ty -boards 'had the right to select
a public term of one hundred days any
time during the period of the extended
school year—eighteen months. There
can, however, be but one public term
of live months, because the money ap
propriated iwua only srufflolent for 100
diays. Besides, inhere would then be 'two
public school terms in the same school
year.
"One hundred and twenty-one coun
ties uivaUett themselves of the oppor
tunity of operating their schools In ad
vance or the school year," said Com
missioner Bradiwel'l today. “Some
counties operated the entire live months
before July, while Others occupied fifty
days in the early spring urnd fifty days
to summer. .About twelve counties
•waited until July, but those counties
wfl-1 complete the 'full term' of five
.months by Christmas.
"It wilt be seen that every county In
the state will be without schools the
first half of ’95 unless the general As
sembly will make a special approprla-*
tton to cover -this period of six mtoirtihs.
It Is contended that the authority to
borrow applied only to Alprll, 1894, and
does not apply to April, 1895. Numer
ous retMutuons have been filed with me
to be presented to She legislature ask
ing for a special appropriation of 3300,-
000, it -least for ’this period, which la not
provided for.
"It looks as 4f this ought to be done,
irwe' afe entitled .to 31,200,000 for
iwelvo months, an Increase of the time
»lx iriohsha longer ought to Increase the
fund at least 3300,000.”
The school fund for the present year
was about 3130,000. The first quarterly
payment was, In round numbers, 3470,-
000, 'the second quarterly payment 3148,-
000, and the third quarterly payment
will be about 365,000.
SOLICITOR BROWN'S CARD.
Tho People on the Vivo For a Se
rious Collision.
Atlanta, Sept. 22a—<Spo«.*Ial.)—Interest
In the Crowley muriler, which has been
running higher each day slneo it oc
curred, was displaced today by tho
trouble between Solicitor Gcorgn Brown
of tho Bluo Ridge circuit anil W. C.
Uleun and C. D. Maddox, tho well-
known lawyers. Solicitor. Brown's card,
published this morning, tu which he
denounced Messrs. Glenn & Maddox
In scathing terms, was discussed toy
everybody, and throughout tho day a
serious collision was momentarily ex
pected.
Solicitor Brown remained at tho
Kimball house most of the day, receiv
ing'a number of frieuds in Ills room,
among them Ills father and brother.
Ills avowed purposj In remaining In
tho city today was to personally await
tho result of his publication.
During the day Messrs. Gleufi & Mad
dox went about ’.hold usual business.
When upprunened by uewspaper men
both declined to be Interviewed. Mr.
Glenn said only that as ho bad Ignored
Mr. Brown In tho jiast, ho would Ignore
him in tho future. Mr. Maddox had
uot determined whether he would reply
to the attack through the press or not.
The most warlike demonstration was
on tho part of Col. French Strange,
editor of tho Gazette. Ho was re
ported to bo on tho hunt for Solicitor
Brown, but matters were smoothed out
so far as he was concerned by Solicitor
Brown writing him p. note withdrawing
anything be had slid reflecting upon
Editor Strange.
THE GRE3S-rNMAN CONTEST.
lAtlartta, Sept. 23.—(SpecWl.)—The
contest for tot Sixth ward seuft In. coun
cil, between'Mr. Hugh Inman and Mr.
O. V. Gross, yesterday developed a
fejiture that tot.it caused a gxxl deal of
talk among politicians of all grades.
Mr. toman. who Is one of 'the weulth-
taK mon In tho city, was approached
by the canvassing commUstce, Entrust
ed with the task of raising funds for
toe state campaign for a subscription,
lie has aflways < been considered a
•uiundh and liberal Democrat,' apd the
commttxee bad no doubt that he would
go ddfen Into tola pocket as become a
good Democrat with a ‘■bar’!.’’ But it
seems Mr. Inman. Is mad with the
Democratic party, and not only refused
to, contribute to the oairjpalgn fund, but
ghve Democracy such a frost that the
local workmen (have not recovered yet.
"I won’t give you. ai nickel.’’ (aid
Cartdld.Jie Iran in. "I have nothing to
thank the Democratic pary for—I owe
it no allegiance. The Democratic party
put u tax upon my income, and I re
fuse to give my money to help a party
that opposes my tmcre»u."
Mr, Grass gave the committee ISO.
When the atory Iesked out today It
caused a strong feeling against Sir.
Inman. A few weeks ago Mr. Inman
wanted to be mayor. As martens now
Stand he will lie lucky If Ms next door
neWhbors vote for Trim for councff.

\
Two Performances, One at Noon and the
Other Beginning at 7 O'clock—
Secretary Smith nnd Parly
Invited to Occupy a Box,
The ctrcue Is to town today and in
consequence thereof the small boy, the
big boy and many of the grown up
boys, together with email girls, big girls
grown up girls and even old boys and
girls of all co.’crro and conditions are
happy.
The circus arrived yesterday morn
ing at 4 o’clook and It was not long be
fore the ten la were up and everything
to readiness for today’s performances
and otreet parade. Thousands of peo
ple availed themselves of the Invitation
extended by Sells 'Brothers to see a por
tion to! the circus^yesterday, and all of
them were pleased with what they anw.
In fact, they were more than pleased
and -those who had thought Sells Broth
ers did not have a real big, flnst-class
circus were agreeably disappointed.
The street parade will begin at 10
o’clook sharp -this morning and the pro*
cession will move along the following
route;
'Will atari from show grounds, foot
of Pine street, ait 10 o’clock sharp; Pine
to Fourth, to Poplar, to Third, to Mul
berry to Second, to Cherry -to Cotton
ovenue. to Plum, street, to First street,
to Pooler to Second, to Cherry, to
Fourth, 'to Pine, to show grounds.
The afternoon oerformanco will be
gin shortly after the street parade and
the night performance will begin at 7
o’clock: doors bperi”at 6.
The night performance will conclude
at 9 o'clock so that everybody can come
un towel 'n time to hear Secretary Hoke
Smith and Hon. W. Y. Atkinson apeak
at the Wadley monument. For this con
cession the Ytourur Men's Democratic
Club and -the citizens generally are un
der many obligations to Sells Brothers,
who, when called on by President
Blount and Mayor Pro Tern Sperry yes
terday,'offered to make any concession
In their power for the success of tho
speaking, even jibing so far ae to offer
their tent. When It Is remembered that
the Sells 'Brothers are. strangers and
have no Interest whatever In Georgia
politics and that -the early dismissal of
tho audlcnoe at the c|rcus Is a pecu
niary loss to them, the public will read
ily see where It Is under obligations to
Sells Brothers.
Secretary Hoke .Smith will arrive to
tho city at 11 o'clock and Sells Brothers
request the Telegraph to extend to him
and party an Invitation to attend tho
circus ns their guests and occupy a
