WANT CONVENTION
MADISON WILL TRY TO BRING
AUTO MEN HERE EARLY
IN JULY.

Negotiations, which it is hoped
will bring to Madison the summer
meeting Of the Tri-State Automobile
association, are under way between
the Madison Merchants association
and ID. l.. Mckinney, secretary of the
automobile association.
In a letter received from Mr.. Nc
Kinney by the Merchants association
it is stated that if automobile dealers
here Join the association, this city
stands a good chance of obtaining the
next meeting. IT is intimated that
the contest for the meeting hinges
between Madison and WATERFOWL.
1t is pointed out that both cities have
lake resorts.
The dates set for the meeting are
July IL and u. Mr.. Mckinney
states that it would be possible to
change the dates to July II and 13,
SO that the dates of the meeting
would not conflict with those set for
the ch|autauqua, which closes July IL.
He said that if men in both Madison
and WATERFOWL joined the associa-
ton. then the most energetic city
would probably be given the prefer
ence. 1t was pointed out that the
place of meeting is decided by the
board of directors. On the director
ate is j. NJ. Muggli, of Ramona.
The winter meeting of the associa-
ton was held a couple of weeks ago
i'm Sioux Falls, and a number of Mad
ison citizens were in attendance. 1t
is expected that hundreds of automo-
bile fanciers will attend the summer
meeting.
Secretary William Rowland, OF the
Merchants association, said that local
men will be asked to join the Tri-
State Automobile association, and
that efforts will be put forth at once
to land the meeting.

THE eJEFFERSONTAN

in the utmost good faith and with the highest
patriotic motives, it must appear to any impartial
mind that it is in violation Of the policy of
government.
g. Having arrived at this conclusion the ques-
ton arises as to the proper course Of the State
Superintendent of Schools in disbursng the state
funds due the city of Savannah.
Under the law the County Superintendent of
Schools certify to the State Superintendent of
Schools the number of pupils in the several
counties between the ages Of six and eighteen
years. Whereupon it becomes the duty Of the
State Superintendent Of Schools to calculate the
pro rata share each county is entitled to receive
from the amount Of the school fund appropriated
by the State for the support OF the public schools
for the following year and disburse the same
accordingly to the County Boards through the
County Superintendent of Schools. The law pre-
sumes that all public officers will do their duty
according to law. 1t follows that the State Sup
serntendent of Schools cannot legally anticipate
that the County Board Of Education will violate
the law by misdirectirg the expenditure Of the
funds even before the funds are received by the
County Board or even before it has appropriated
the funds to the various schools Of the county.
Consequently the State Superintendent Of Schools
cannot legally withhold from any such County
Board all or any part Of the State funds legally
appropriated to that County.
3. However, it is my opinion that il it E9
made to appear to the satisfaction OF the STATE
superintendent of Schools that such conditions
exist in any county; that such conditions have
continued to exist through many years; that
. reasoning from such continued precedent or from
oJhef evidence or circumstances SATISFACTORY 10
the State Superintendent of Schools it appears
probable that part of such funds will be so mis-
directed then it will be his right and duty to
bring to the attention Of the County Board of
Education the law herein referred to and to give
direction that the funds be thereafter applied in
strict accordance with the law. If the County
Boards Of Education should fail 10 act in accord
ance with such suggestions, then ample authority
will be found for the enforcement of the Law.
AS another has said in language less polish ed,
but possibly more expressive: If the churches
will keep their hands off the government, the
government will keep it's hands off the churches
l was never more clear conscientious in the
opinion that in our country even a slight cOnnec-
ton of a church with the government will
gender bitterness and prejudice as we'll real
resentment and finally prove of great harm to
that church, that the absolute and perfect separa-
ton of Church and State will eventually be COM
pletely justified and prove beneficial alike to
Church, State and People,

1916
But. in Oct. 1915, DR.. Reese was not GUN
nlng for the scornful Martin Luther Britain
IN Oct 1916 he ar0s,' and that explains the
sudden rumOr which reached the ears of
Supercilious Britain.
Attorney General Walkers condemnation
of Britain, Sam Adams. and Bishop Kelley
bears date Oct. 4, 1916. a, full week before the
election.
Britain laid low, and said nothing until
after the election

Possession, just after it was written, II

AS to the religion being taught in ouraub-
lie schools by Methodists, Baptists. .Presbvte-
1lans, etc, no such thing is being done.
when Britain attempts to save his face by
saying that the Protestants are violating the
law just as the CATHOLICS have been doing he
utters wilful and deliberate falsehood.
The ownership of a school-house is moth
ing: the question which controls, is that of
t60ch5ng religion IN the school.
The Baptlsts and Methodists might own
every academy in Georgia, and the State
might rent them, or accept the use of them
free of rent, without violating the law: but
the very day on which religion is taught in
those schools they become illegal benefciaries
of the school fund.
Britain is so very ignorant of law that he
again says, In effect that the Savannah schools
are not subject to the Constitution of 1877.

the Supreme law. Y

hope this statement is sufficiently simple
to permeate the mind of even Martin Luther
Britain.
The reply of Attorney General Walker is
an able and exhaustive document, completely
covering the case and absolutely sustaining
the cNntention that / have so long urged.
According to the Savannah papers, Mr. Brit
tain has notified Mr. Sam Adanas that the
B0ard must turn Ove1 q mea0 leaf, AT ONCE.
Therefore, a practice which was unlawful
at ITS commencement and which has con-
temptuousy ignored legitimate criticism,
comes to an abrupt end.
WHY?
Because DR.. Alex E. Keese consented to- 90
up, single-handed, against this intrenched
abuse, and call upon The People to rise!
The people did rise, to an extent which dis
mayed NJ l.. Britain, and now he suddenly
