TRUMPED UP DIRECTIONS.

Ex-Senator Daniel Smith of Mobile reit- crates his objection to the school amend ment, that the Legislature may authorize the trustees to levy the tax instead of leav- ing it to vote of the people. Now, no man knows better than he that an amend ment permitting any school district and every to levy special tax simply by a majority vote could never be adopted in Alabama, simply because the sections with large negro majorities would oppose it. It could never pass the Legislature. because the Representatives from the Black Belt would not permitit.
 Under the pending amendment the Leg islature will pass separate laws for each dis trict. It can authorize the trustees to levy the tax, subject to a vote of the people. The practical effect of the amendment will be simply 10 remove the prohibition against local taxation for schools, and the Legisla- ture can then provide for tax through the trustees. It may authorize the levy direct or after vote. Just as it enacts prohibi- ton in a county direct or after a vote of the people. Now, what will body of men fresh from the people do? What the peo- pie demand, of course. The truth of the business is, that the necessity of a legisla- tive enactment to make the amendment op. erative is put in there to guard this new power.
 Another thing. The Legislature may confer on trustees the power to levy the tax. It will not require them to do it, and as the trustees are part of and very near the people, they are very sure not to do it unless tue people want it done.
 Out upon these trumped up objections to a measure for the welfare of the children of Alabamal
