OF fHH
PC D Lie son OOLS
AND THE
Voters Of Washin gton County.


Your attention isrespectfuly called to tho pro.
visions of the 5th See. of Act ofthe Constitution
Of Maryland, which reads as follows:
"The General Assembly shall levy at each repu.
lar session after the adoption of this an
annual tax OF not less than ten cents on each one
hundred dollars oftaxable property throughout the
State for 1.-THE support Of the FREE PUBLIC
SCHOOLS, WI ich tax shall be collected at the same
time and by the same agents as tine general State
levy; and shall be paid into the Treasury ofthe State
and shall be distributed under such regulations as
may be prescribed by law among the Countics and
the City of baltimore in proportion to their respec-
i've population between the ages of and.20 years:
Provided that the General Assembly shall not levy
any additional School tax upon particular Counties
unless such County express by popular vote its de-
The law establishing Uniform system of Free
Public Schools, provides that from and after the LIST
day of January, 1867 all Sections of the several Ar
tcles OF the Code of Public Local Laws relating to
the levying County tax for the support of the Pub
tic Schools 'bc and the same are hereby repealed I"
Thus It will be seen that the present Local or
County tax for the support of the Public Schools
will be discontinued after the LIST of January 1867
and the Legislature has no authority to pass any
special law for your County in connection with YOUR
school rcrcuue unless you request the through
the ballot box. .....
As the School cannot be continued four terms,
ten months) and proper buildings erected upon the
present Stats Revenue, it is important that some
non b. taken to continue the present County tax
This can be done only by an endorsement upon your
0,yllot at the next general cection-FOR A COUN-
FY SCHOOL TAX. Therefore it is respectfully
recommended that the next General Assembly be
requested by printing writing your ballot at
the coming November Election For A COUNTY
SCHOOL TAX to enacta law authorizing con-
tnuance of the County levy, for the erection, re-
pairs and refurnshing of Public School Houses for
providing them with fuel and for all incidental ex-
ocnscs connected with the buildings.
BY this means the Educational fund can be be ap-
piled exclusively to its legitimate object without the
great dnnuton to which it is now subject for rent
fuel and repairs. ......
BY the levy ofa small County tax, to be applied
to tine purposes indicated in the course of q few
years there can be built, properly ventilated and
heathy School houses throughout the entire county
and titled acquired to many now rented
II is therefore left for you to say whether after
the LIST ofJanuary, 1867, the Public Schools of your
County shall he entirely dependent upon the State
levy, or whether you will authorize a continuance
OF the present County tax to aid in their support
Respectfully, THOS. A BOUiLT.
Pres't Of the Board of School Commissioners.
