sympathize with them in their sad be
reavment, for not long since we lmd to
give up our sweet little Emily, who was
four years, two months and twelve days
old. Parents, we will not grieve after
our little darlings, for we know where
they are is Heaven, and knowing this
to he true, we will only strive tile
harder to reach that happy place where
ouv sweet little children are at rest.
Mother, would you call your little one
back from such a place? It would be
cruel. God knows best. His will be
done; not ours. We cannot complain,
for the Savior gave His precious life
that we may have the sweet privilege
of meeting all our loved ones in a world
that knows no death and will stand
throughout the endless ages. While we
feel sad without our little ones here,
yet what ecstacy fills our souls when
we think of meeting them in heaven.—
Will it not be a joyful meeting. Then
dry away every tear, for it will net be
long at best when we will meet them to
part no more forever.

That of Air. Everett was a plain, practical
speech, such as go to educate the people

made some telling licks that brought
cheers from the people.

os made by the County Board of Educa
tion of maps and charts. In this resolu
tion the Board of Education are charged
with reckless expenditures of the public
funds and with paying out six hundred
dollars during the past year for maps
(paying too much for same) and charts '
which they believe “to bo a fraud.”
I am a member of the Board of Educa
tion > na officc 1 did not see, “ 1 accepted
the office because the Grand Jury asked
me to, and because I don’t want to refuse
to serve the public in any way I can w hen
called upon. Now, let us reasonably
consider the action of the Board. Sec.
21 st, of the Georgia school law empow¬
ers county Boards of Education to pureh
ase maps, globes etc., and to make all
other arrangements of this kind neces
sary to the efficient operation of the
schools under their care. Then if it is
wrong to make such purchases, the law
which authorizes it is wrong. You
not expect a carpenter to build a good
house without tools to work with, neith
er can you expect a teacher to teach a
good school without tools.
Those gentlemen on resolutions say
they had much rather the money
etl for said maps and charts had been
spent for books and distributed among
the poor children of the comity. This
plan may be a better one, I am not able to
say, but I suppose the legislature never
has thought so, as they never have given
the Board any such power, and it is not
our purpose to do any thing the law does
not authorize us to do, as we think the
law a power superior to Alliance reso¬
lutions. If those gentlemen will examine
the educational statistics and sec which
states of the union are ahead in education
and then examine the schools of those
states, they will find such things as maps
and charts are in use and have been for
years. It is true they haye never been
used in Georgia until recently, and it is
also true that Georgia is behind all the
other states, educationally. The maps
and charts bought by the Board cost five
hundred and ninety dollars to he paid for
out of the funds of 1891 and 1892, and not
all to he paid out of the present year, as
stated by the gentlemen on resolutions.
The funds of these two years amount to
the enormous sum of fourteen thousand
do’lars, and we only appropriate the piti¬
ful amount of five hundred and ninety,
for furnishing schools with these a para t
uses. Would it be wrong to appropri¬
ate each year, or as often as practicable,
8200 or $300 of the funds to furnishing
the schools properly? If so, then the law
is wrong and you gentlemen should go to
work and have the law repealed instead
of abusing the Board of Education for
complying with it. The gentlemen say
the maps cost too much. I was not a
member of the Board wlieu the maps
were bought, but I suppose the Board
bought them as cheap as they could get
them. They say they believe the charts
are a fraud. If so, they are the first to
discover this fact. These charts are used
recommended, and endorsed by some of
the best educators in the United States,
and nobody has ever pronounced them a
fraud until the wisdom of the Haralson
Farmer’s Alliance.
In all my official acts I always consult
the law, the other members of the Board
and my own conscience, and do what I
conclude to be light; and if I ever fail to
comply with the law and my oath of
office, then anybody is at liberty to call
me to account, but as long as our actions
continue in strict compliance with law I
will say to thdse gentlemen that, concern¬
ing our actions, you are respectfully re¬
quested to forever hold your peace.
Mr. Editor, I offer those thoughts to
the public with the best of feelings
