sporting inclination are talking OF
erecting a private cottage on that

entertainment there would be well
patronized

Boating parties on our creek have
increased this season probably hun
dred per cent, or more The city Wis
itors have INDUCED greatly i'll th'
pleasures on the water. When we are
work and sick of the monotony of the
common duty in the home or the bus
mess place, a trip, free OF cara, th'
pure air and tue salt bath are GER
tainly invigorating at once. The
people here do not appreciate tht
pleasures at their door which theil
neighbors of the cities and interior
places are glad to pay much for.

In Justice to myself and Mr.. w.
n. Warren who is also likely can
didate for the County School Super
intendency to succeed DR.. Jno. +.
Mapp. ana forced TO acknowledge
the action OF majority OF the Coun-
ty School Board in session at Acco-
mac G. H., Monday, as q direct i'm
position upon myself and MIR. War
rem aud scheme branded for It's
utter unfairness and injustice to us
as candidates entitled to fair play"
Mr. Parsons call of the County
School Board was as follows:
The County School Board will
hold its annual meeting at Acoo-
mac G. H., on Monday, August
the 9th, at 10 o'clock a. IN All the
trustees are earnestly requested to be
present at the appointed time, to
settle with treasurer, elect a clerk to
the Board and to determine the time
OF opening schools NC.
J. ID. Parsons, clerk
County School Board.
Ia there anything in this call sug-
gestive OF bringing the matter OF the
Superintendency up for endorse
ment? Now as there is not, could
any candidate except the one VINO
WAS subject OF favor by this scheme,
have imagined any such snap Judg-
ment would have been sprung by
this body in the absence OF the Other
candidates. and before they had an
opportunity to CANVASS it as an oflis
cial body or individually? | am glad
TO note mat the unjust and untime-
ly movement was not unanimous and
that several OF the Board were so
imbued with fairness toward all OF
the candidates that they made vigor-
Gus protests against this well laid
scheme, and offered an amendment,
which was voted down by the vigor d.
GUS fight to carry out the plans. 1t
occurs to me now as a candidate thai
the plan was pre-arranged to defeat
or discourage the other candidates.
While the majority OF the Board
present, did endorse my opponent,
though one district did not have a
single representative present at the
voting, | feel like generating the
Board. Mr.. Parsons excepted, 30 far
as circumstances will permit, because
/ the matter though premedttated and
planned by Mr. Parsons and another
person who had prior to the meeting
been closeted on two or three occa-
sions was snapped upon them as it
was upon the absent candidates, and
did not give them an opportunity to
reflect and view the matter from
reasonable standpoint.
The appointment is too far OIL to
have hurried such a plan through
1t will not be made till about next
May aud such snap-judgment is at
premature as it is unfair. | trust
that my friends and endorsers will
continue as in the past to aid me IL
pushing the fight and stand by me
in seeing fair play" This is all
ask, win or lose.
Jno. H. Johnson.
