EXPLANATORY NOTES.

SECTION I. This section amends Sec
ton 100 OF school laws of 1868, (page
59), SO that when revised it will read
thus: "Any city or town containing
not less than three hundred inhabi-
tants within its recorded plat, with
the contiguous territory thereto, may
be constituted separate school dis
trict in the manner hereinafter pro
vided: Proriaed, That this act shall not
affect independent districts already or
ganized."
SEC. 2. This is new section to the
school laws and only applies to indie
pendent districts contiguous to each
other, as the sectionsclearly indicates.
SEC. 3. Amends section II of school
laws Of 1869 (page Coy, thus:-Should
a majority OF the votes be cast in IA
vor OF such separate organization, the
beard of directors OF the district town
ship shall give similar notice OF meet
ing OF the electors for the election OF
six directors. Two of these directors
shall hold their offices until the first
annual meeting after their election, or
until their SUCCESSORS are elected and
qualified; two until the sccond and
two until the third annual meeting
thereafter; their respective terms OF OF
flee to be determined by lot. The
said six directors shall constitute a
board OF directors for the district, and
they shall at their first regular meet
ing in each year elect president, sec
Tama County Republican. (Toledo, Tama County, Iowa) 1867-1872, 1870-02-24

rotary and treasurer, the two latter TO
be chosen outside OF the board.'
SEC. 4. Amends section Ia of Tho
school laws OF 1868, (pagc 62), by adj,
ding to the end OF said section the fol,
lowing; "Proejded, ,fisrther, That the
treasurer shall make a statement to
the district meeting of the receipts
and disbursements OF the preceding
year"
SEC. 5. Amends section lis Of school
laws OF 1868, page 63l, thus:-The an
nual Smeetlng OF all independent dis
tricts formed as herein contemplated
or under the laws in force at the TAX
ing effect ct this act, shall be held or
the second Monday in March for tn,
transaction OF the business OF the dis
trict, and for tie election by ballot Of
two directors rs the Successors of The
two whose term expires, who shall
continue in Office for three years; and
the president, secretary and one of the
directors then in office, shall act as
judges of the election, and shall issue
certificates of election to the persons
elected for the ensuing term"
SEC. 6. This section makes it the du.
ty OF independent districts on the sec.
ond Monday in March, in 1870, to
elect an entirely new board of direc.
tors composed OF six members instead
of a president, vice president, secrc-
tary, treasurer and three directors.
These directors SO elected shall organ
ize on tho third Monday of March, BY
electing one Of their own number pres.
ident. and secretary and treasurer
outside of their number; the two lat
ter t. have no voice in the board.
The law applying to the number of
directors, and their term OF office was
changed with tho hope Of securing
greater rermanency and economy in
the operation of the schools in indie
pendent districts. 1t gives the board
the power Of choosing its own secre-
tary and treasurer. During the past
school year these officers throughout
the State received nearly S51, 600, an
expense that the present legislature
deemed eStrayagant. Many school
boards OF other States select the prin-
cipal or superintendent other schools
to act as secretary, and thus save a
part or the entire expense paid by
many boards OF this State to that OF
ticer The treasurer may be selected
from a bank or some Office open to
the public during business hours, and
thus save part or the whole of moneys
now paid IS a salary for that position.
1t is very desirable that the people
at their coming election on the sec
ond Monday in March-take deep
interest in the selecting Of superior
men Tor thcosix directors who will
compose the board Let no narrow
nor petty interests influence the elect
ors. Ii a broad and libcral'policy be
adopted in the election of men in every
way qualified for the important and
responsible position of directors, the
schools will receive an impetus which
will greatly benefit all localities, and
give tone and character to the schools
throughout the State.

The State Capitol.

Our readers will have noticed that
the Bill providing for building a new
State Capitol has passed the Senate
and awaits the return Of the Members
OF the House. 1t is said that, prior to
a ljournmcnt, the House contained a
majority Of Eve against the Bill. 1t is,
nevertheless, considered morally GER
tain that the House will give its assent
to the bill. What effect the recess and
the instructions receired by the Mem
hers OF the House from their copstitu-
ents will have cannot now be deter.
mined. We believe that Mr.. Wilson
our member, is opposed to the bill, as
it may be, Is his constituency. We
have heard but little expression, and
from only very few, on this
subject.
We believe there are two objections
i. arged against this bill The first j,
the present financial condition of The
country, and the oppression which any
farther lcxy OF taxes would be to til,
