GRENADA, MISS, SATURDAY, JUNE 26. 1885,


The Constitution of Mississippi, Art
VIII, Sec. 5, provides that "a public
school or schools shall be maintained in
each school district at least four months
in each year." Sec. 10, OF same Article
is as follows; "rhe Legislature shall from
tine to time, as may be necessary, pro-
vide for the levy and collection of such
other taxes as may be required to properly
support the system of free schools herein
adopted. And all school funds shall be
divided pro rata among the children of
school ages" Any shortage in the regu.
lar school funds ismade up from the gen.
eral fund in the State Treasury. These
facts show that the whisky tax is not
necessary to support the public schools.
1t could not possibly maintain them over
two weeks and if it were taken away, its
place would be supplied from the general
Stale fund. 1t is not true that in any
=
prohibition town or comfy the public
schools are reduced to two months in
quiry will show they are maintained four
months as in other couLt:es and as the
Constitution requires. These facts taken
in connection with the letter Of the State
Auditor given below, will settle the
school question in the minds Of all un.
prejudiced and intelligent citizens.
