H-<Z Two Mile School Question About thirty years ago this present site was adopted by the original set tlers, the school house was built by the private means of four of them; It must be admitted they were actu ated by a spirit of fair play and jus tice that is conspicuously absent in •lie present majority, tor they picked geographical center or thereabouts, *o accommodate the extremes of the district, and not their own conveni ence. This school house was used rent free long after the children of those 'ho built it were grown men and A few years ago this site women was acquired by the district, a new •chool house was built, also several < ut-buildlngs, the acre cleared and well fenced, walks built, a good well md pump. In fact the present Im ■irovements stood tho taxpayers about 3700, all obtained by special taxes and bond. The bond I* not paid yet. It must be admitted, the dimens ions of this district are auch as to make it impossible to build a school house at present that will not work an Injustice to some. Further It must be admitted that districts of this ize set at naught the compulsory ••chool law. The minority are will ing to help remedy matters, and have been willing to do bo at all times. There is but one way that this ran hr done and do justice to all parties Cut a half mile off the south -nd. ad ding it to Four Mile where it be longs; also cut some off the north end. adding it to Bandon, where it belongs; letting the body of the old district remain the same: build the school house on the old site, and no iujuelice will be dune any party. We will make sn attempt to ana lyre that particular part of school law bearing on the majority required to abandon previously used school site When one reads this particular section of Isw applicable to thia ques tion it seems rather hazy. yet when one reasons out the seeming lutent of tlie law makers, only one conclus ion is permissible: They were un doubtedly trying to provide protec tion for a minority from the en croachments of a malority. If one goes further and tries to arrive at some conclusion as tfi what else they n.lght have been contemplating at that time, he finds himself up a stump, for no other reason can be given for their providing that a two-thirds majority is necessary. This two-thirds they have nut. ev en by voting anyone they saw fit; I the largest vote they have polled Is I (8. The minority can and will vote I 23 legal votes. Let this be decided by vote, with competent, disinterested Judges, and the vote will stand about as follows. 33 to 23. The minority have grown weary of elections. These elections have beln forced by the majority every time. The minority are only pro- tecting themselves.
