An Interesting Case.

The decision of the appellate
court settles lively and interesting
contest that was waged last year
over the position as teacher in the
consolidated school at Lone Oak. To
fill a vacancy, the divisional school
board met and Miss Browning was
declared elected by w. r. Davis,
chairman of the board. Friends OF
Miss Harrison claimed that II re-
quired a majority of the trustees
elect instead of a majority of the
trustees present to elect teacher,
and a second meeting was called.
At this meeting Miss Browning and
Miss Harrison received three votes
each.
In an effort to break the tie sew
eral meetings were held, but to 40
avail. w. A. Middleton, who was
principal of the consolidated school.
resigned his position, and was APP
pointed county school superintend-
ent, whom the law designates shall
have a deciding vote In case of
tie vote. At the last meetings of
the division board Professor Middle
ton was present, but had not quail
fed. The next day he qualified and
took his office. His first official act
was TO write out his vote for Miss
Harrison and declare her elected. A
question was raised whether Super
intendent Middleton could sit in his
office and vote while the board was
not in session. but in the lower court
his vote was sustained as legal.
Miss Browning taught the entire
school year. but will not receive the
cenpensation.
