PROF. LAND WAS LANDED
THE DEADLOCK IN CITY SCHOOL
BOARD HAS BEEN BROKEN.
COrdele Man Has Been Elected SUI
perintendent of DawsOn's Public
Schools. Salary Raised.

0NHOOASs ANf1ASCus
The deadlock that had prevailed
in the board of public school COM
missioners of Dawson the past two
months over the election of a super
intendent was broke at meeting OF
the board Monday morning, when
Prof. F. E. Land of Cordele was
elected.
The vote was four for Prof. Land
and two for Professor R. H. Hank
inson, Commissioners Roberts, Hors-
ley, Irwin and Parks voting for
Land and Commissioners Edwards
and Lamar for Hankinson The sal
airy of the superintendent was in
creased from $1,000 to $500 a
year, Mr.. Land, who was in Dawson
some days ago, having given mem
bers of the board to understand that
he would not consider the place for
la less amount.
The two other male teachers are
yet to be elected, these places not
having been filled when the six lady
teachers of the faculty were elected
some weeks ago. 1t is understood
that the selection of these teachers
will be left largely to the new super
intendent, who has wired that he
will be in Dawson today to confer
with the board.
Professor Land is about 80 years
of age, and is a self-made man who
has been teaching all of his life since
reaching young manhood. His testi-
monials are of the highest character.
For five years he has been superin-
tendent of the COrdele schools, and
