HOLDING TO OFFICES
EIGHT sUPERINTENDENTs OF ED
 UCATION WILL NOT GIVE UP.
Newly-elected Omcials Cannot Take cP Duties in These Counties-De- partment of Education
 is Powerless.

rho o,rrant scho,astic year for the State os Alabama has begun with only twenty-nine new County Superinteho- ents of Education.
 The total number of new county Su- perintendents elected were thirty.six but eight of them, though provloeo with commissions and duly qualified, have been refused their offices by the old offcers who are obstinate in hold inc over on account of an alleged tech- |nicaI error in the law.
 These superintendents who have re- fused to yield their offices to the su- perintendents-elect are: J. A. Thomp- son of Montgomery County, w. c. Jar rell of Lafayette, Chambers County; |C. A. womble of Tuscumbia, Colbert County; A. A. Rutherford of Tuskegee, Macon County; J. c. Tidwell of New Decatur, Morgan County; G. L. Bell of Jackson's Gap. Tallapoosa County; R. D. Argo of Jasper, Walker County, and l'W. "A. Bates of Double Springs, Win ston County.
 This list was compiled yesterday in the office of the State Superintendent of Education.
 It will require much motion of the court machinery of Alabama for the County Superintendents-e to es- tablish their titles to these offices. They may expect no aid from the State De- partment, because State Superintendent Hilf has already declared his intention to continue transactions with the old superintendents as de facto officers in pursuance of an opinion of Attorney General Massey Wilson.
 If the superintendents-el succeed in busting the hold-overs by quo war ranto proceedings or otherwise, Super intendent Hill says he will recognize the successors. He has no choice in the contests but to prevent confusion is following the opinion of the Attor- ney General.
 The contests between the claimants of the offices are based upon the ap- parent conflict between the new gen. eral election law and the old statute.
 Judge of Probate A. J. Driver of Chambers County visited the office of Superintendent Hill yesterday and presented a petition for the ap- pointment of w. T. Hollingsworth as Superintendent of Education of Cham bers County. The petition is signed by all the members of the County Demo- cratic Executive Committee. The pe- tition is based upon the assumption | that there Is a vacancy in the office by virtue of the fact, as alleged, that the old Superintendent, W. s. Jarrelfs. term, has expired. Mir. Hollingsworth tn
 was duly elected in November and has been commissioned
 Superintendent Hill refused to con- sider the appointment, as he ignores
 that there Is a vacancy. This action | is also in pursuance of the Attorney
 Generals opinion.
