Mr. Holland presented a petition for more scheol accommodations for colored children in the 6th district, and offered a resolution providing forthe establishment of schoois. ie urged that the expenses would be buat small, and that there was an absolute neces- sity for schools at this point. Mr. J. S. Brown said that the locality pamed was not so badly off as other places. Mr. Holland repl with some warmth, tt at if the board had not established a color line all the children in the county could be provided for. As long as the schools are kept separate theexpenses will be muca more than if the schools were open to all. Mr. Brown referred to the boarl being unable to establish more e hoois in their present financial condition, and remarked ihat the board was not to blame for the separate schools: the law established the colored line. Mr. Hollard replied that per cent. of the | the law con- | | solidating the schools broke down thal line, but the beard had seen fit to Keep itup. Now they must psy for it. Alter some further debate the subject was referred tothe sub-board of the 6th district with power to act.
