Local News. v Kl?NtiSU Y V, NOV. 12. I!?02. Intending School District. Thor? isa pretty strong movoraent j on toot to extend tho limits of the : school district of tile city of Anderson. | There are families outside of tho city j limits who ?re anxious to put them- , selves in n position to be entitled to the school facilities offered by our , graded schools, and aro perfectly will ing to have their property bear its pro- I portion of taxation tor tho maintaining j the present excellent system and erect- ! ing and maintaining Oilier buildings when necessary. The mode ot procedure in extending the limits ia plain ami simple: Tho ; County Hoard ol Education, when pe titioned by one-third ot I he qualified electors in the proposed school district, j is authorized by statute to form thedis- j trier. The district then becomes ul body corporate with power to sue and : be sued, and tin- property in tho dis-1 trict becomes chargeable, proportion-I ately, with the taxes to sustain thc schools established. There is one point in this matter, however, which is not perfectly plain: I The present school district embraces the ciiv. The (.'itv Council is em pow- i eied by charter to levy taxes within the city limits, ami, pursuant lo this i power,' levies a tax or '.*} mills, which goes to maintain our city schools | Now, in the event the school district he enlarged to a distance ot two miles ? instead ol one, as ii now is, the quos- \ lion arises, who will levy anti Collect this tax outside the eily limits? There appears to be no provision tor a ?'ase of ? this kind in the statutes, und some leg islation would evidently lie necessary. This, however, can be easily attended I to. ns the legislature will meet within ? the next sixty days. There is another wuv this apparent : defect could homet: While agitating ? the question to extend the limits of the school district, soino think it would be opportune to settle tho question of ex tending the city limits to a distance of two miles instead of one, as it now is. The modo of procedure in this is also simple and plain. Upon petition to the City Council of one-third of the quali fied electors (d' the territory desiring to be annexed, tho Council, after Kui days1 notice, shall order an election. .Separate boxes will be provided, and if it majority of the votes cast by the q i.dilled electors of the town and of tn-- territory proposed to be annexed, ? eh aggregated separately, shall bo . chin t'a vor of annexation, or if neith er give, a majority against annexation, the Council shall publish the result of the election and declare the town and annexed territory a municipality; the Secretary of State is notified and tho matter becomes legal ami fixed. Whether it bo wiso to undertake the extention of the limits of the city just nt thia time. Tho Intelligencer cannot say, but the extension of the school district appears to carry with it tho idea of growth and prosperity and beneficial results in the near future. No very noticeable re sults need be expected for a your or two, but at the end of that time a period of building and improvement can bo couti lently looked for. The members of the County Board of relocation are It. K. Nicholson. T. C. Walton, of this city, and L. M. Mu luiffey, ot Starr. It is to be hoped that these gentlemen will encourage this movement. It is a atep in the right di rection and in keeping with the rapid progress being made in all other do pai t men ts. New Ordinances. Several new ordinances have been recently adopted by the City Council, which are highly important to the peo ple. New offices are created and cer tain rules made governing the rights of citizens, the violations which carry with them fines or imprisonment. One is, "Tho Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.-' following the old statu tory la iv, its application is made gen eral, extending to all persons coming into tht> city limits, and it is made spe cific ns to draymen, hnckmen und live rymen and others doing busiuess within the city, tho peualty carrying with it a probability of revocation of license. This ordinance also provides for the furnishing of safe and substantial ve hicles. The enforcement of the ordinance is in the hands of the police, which guar antees strict compliance. Another is, "An ordinance providing for the election of city engineer, ami requiring a permit for the erection of buildings, fences or other structures within the corporate limita. The pro visions of the ordinance are entirely new and effect every property holder in the city. No structure of any kind can be erected adjoining or along side of any public sidewalk, street or place within the city without first obtaining a permit from the Council or its au thorized officer. The limit of the pen alty fixed for the violation of this ordi nance is 8100 or 30 days' imprisonment. The charter of the city does not re quire nor provide for the printing of ordinances in the newspapers to make them of legal foi ce, and unless the Council sees tit to so publish their or dinances tho people must post them selves on inquiring at tho Clerk's office or elsewhere. They cannot plead ignorance as cause for acquittal or leniency. The Stock Show at Pclzer.
