State OF Iowa.. Tama County Appeal OF
| w. = Wilson, from District Township
|

State OF iowa., Tama County Appeal 81
w. Wilson, from District Township
Of Howard.
In this appeal, it is set forth that, on or
about the 10th Of March, A. D. 1868 the
Board of Directors Of the District township Of
Howard madea decision or order, locating the
site fora new school house which is to be
built in sub-District No. One (D in said dis
trict Township, at a point one fourth of mile
south Of the geographical center Of the Sub
district. From the decision WI. Wilson APP
peals claiming that there is as good location
Of the geographical center, and tn ct, it
school house is built at the site selected, it
will work an unnecessary inconvenience to
| the residents in the Northern part Of said sub
| district.
The testimony shows that there are three
residents in the North half (sections one and
| two) of. said sub-district, four children Of
school age, ana three and half SOS of the
land owned by actual settlers, the rest being
owned by non-residents, some of whom re.
side out of the State. Also that the sou.hhsll
composed of sections II and II, has six res>
idents, six children Of schoola and eleven
SOS owned by actual settlers, six of whom re.
side in adjoining district, the remainder Of the
land being owned by non-residents.
| On an examination Of the site chosen. ] find
itabout sixty rods south Of the center Of said
sub-district. The ground is dryer and The
site more conspicuous-the center being visi
BILE from almost all points,
The preponderance Of population is at tht
south side of the sub district, and seem:
likely to continue so for years; and although
cannot conceal from myself the fact that TIL,
interests of one child in the extreme north.
ern part seem to weigh equally with those hal
dozen in the southern part, yet til,
spirit Of the law gives the maiority a Sigh
advantagein such cases, except where tn
center Of population is evidently liable to b
very soon changed by increase of settlers
The decisions of the Superintendent of Public
instruction also favor this idea. Taking this
into consideration with the superiority of tht
site selected by the Board over that at the ges
graphical center, cannot but affirm the des
clsion or order from which the appeal is tax.
en-.
| l am further established in the correctness
| of this view of the case, from having laid the
| facts personally before the Superintendent OF
Public Instruction, and received his opinion
confirming my own. J. r. STEWART,
County Superintendent
