S, B. by this time has decided that I have nban doned the Hold, and as to argument rluced by him on the school qm dion there is none, and I only write again to give the public some facts 1 had re¬ served for a fight, thinking surely M. S. B. would produce some argument, or he would not have taken up “unm,” in the fight. Now, the only argument M. S. B. has ever used at all, (and it is light weight) was that “other towns have long term schools as’well ns Tallapoosa.” To that i will my, if other towns have the advau tnge of the country schools, amend the bill that justice may be done the country schools regardless of any or all towns. I guess this was quoted by M. t. B. from Tallapoosa’s embassadors. Well, if oth¬ er towns do have longterm schools, they are under the jurisdiction or suptren teudaney of the County School board, and have to comply with the same rules and requirements that the country teaches do, while Tallapoosa has a system of its own, independent of the county board and 1ms many chancels to practice fraud on the other beneficiaries of the public fund. I am informed that Tallapoosa em¬ ployed a colored teacher last year , hold¬ ing first grade license and put at least 80 students under him, at 7-1-2 cents per day from the county board, which, at per cent, of that amount, paid by the public , or brought into the A town school , treasury 8-99 per month, while he receiv ed at the hands of his town board $35, making a dividend . , , to . said ... town , board , of $64 per month, while the school board of the county restricted her • teachers to 50 pupils while they only had about 50 days in which to make the 125 days that the tows got; yet, M. G. I>. would say justice is mooted out uo the people alike, and seems to want to get. up on his -‘toes. when the pen of a countryman” is mis ed in defense of the poor “-lads and las of the , country. And , I r see George ses Woodley gets a “hump” on him when the people speak out through the County Alliance in defense of themselves, regard¬ ing the purchase of maps and charts by the board, while any thinking man that knows anything about teaching public schools in this country, knows that said purchase was not only useless but a fool¬ ish expenditure of the peoples’ money, and it was done without consulting the people, and regardless of their knowl¬ edge, feelings or wishes. Yet, Mr. Woodley says “it is Jaw, and others say it is a good investment”. I wonder if Mr. Woodley has never yet learned that almost all laws are enacted for the benefit of certain classes and combines, and influenced by some persons or par¬ ties interested for their own greed, and if not influenced into law, they are bought into existence, generally with the money of poor people, (indirectly.) So is the Map and Chart act. The producers procured the passage of the act, through a legislature that also disregard the wishes or interest of the people, of whom they were servants. Hence the law on the subject of maps, and of course their agents and men employed by them would fully represent them and advise boards of education that they were the thing for the people, and possibly teach¬ ers that speak in their favor have been “sugared” a little by these manufactur of nwps and charts. let, aboaid ofed ucation should have interest enough in 111 the education of the children to look to their welfare and education re gardloss of such law, or statements of others, and if they have not that interest they should “step down and out,” and let those take tlieir place who are not gov erned entirely by syndicates, lawyers,put iticians or anything else but justice to all the children. The County Alii- MM hi H s(). unco has t right, and a pcfe.efc right, to speak but in condemnation of thu acts of the board of cducatiqh, or mn oiiun w - v;ln(s th(n j, lV0) nml the (imo wil j SOOIt KtJl0 pewl , lo will wAu , in nin . k ,, nl)ing 8Uoh Iict8 as tliat of tI)c spho((1 b(>nrrt) of 8onio of the acts of the i egiria . tore, and even that of Congress, that the highest tribunals of tins government will consult the wishes and needs of Up people, instead of of looking -through the eyes of politicians, silvei tongued lawyers, demagogues and frauds, as this world is ruim by those in authority, oven to a hoard of education.
