before been aroused for a like occa-
sion. White and colored, all Joined
in a most vigorous protest against
the action of the Trustee Board. Rep
Tesentatives of both races were
sent to Nashville last Saturday to
meet the purchasing committee, with
petitions signed by the leading citi-
zens, asking that the school be al
lowed to remain in Shelbyville. The
matter at present seems to be hang
ing in the balance. The County
Teachers Institute opened their ses-
sion this week in the public school
building. There is a good attend
ance. Mrs. G.. G. Jones, of Turner

quarters is most f1attering. He states
that the congratulations received
from the Nashville citizens, from all
sides, were many and hearty. An
other mass-meeting of the citizens
was held last Monday night at the

pose of devising some plan to check
