SCHOOL QUESTION IN BARKLEY TOWNSHIP

Taxpayer Asked Attorney* General Whether Trustee Was Oom- - ,polled to Build H. 8. Eli Arnold, of Barkley township, wrote to Attorney General Honan to ascertain whether the trustee of a township with an assessed valuation of $600,000, and where there had been eight or more common school graduates for the past two years would be required to build and maintain a high school. The appended reply was received. The most cogent point in the opinion is the one which says that he does not believe the trustee would be erect and maintain such a school. If the trustee yas supported by a petition from taxpayers and patrons not to eriect a school it is quite 'sine that the trustee would mot be liable. The letter reads: Dear Sir: In reply to your letter of May 19th, I beg to say that I am not authorized by law to give official opinions to other than state officers. It is my private opinion that if there is no high school in a township having taxable property of more than $600,000.00, and where no high school is situated within three miles of the boundary of such township, and where for two years last past there have been eight or more graduates of the elementary schools, it is the duty of the township trustee to erect a high school building. If there is a high school within three miles of the boundary line of such township under the conditions above, the trustee may build a high school building, but he is not compelled to unless a majority of the parents, guardians or heads of families, or -persons having charge of children who were enumerated in the last preceding enumeration petition for the erection of such a school house. In my opinion a township trustee and the sureties on his bond would not be liable in damages for a failure to erect a school building, al though he might be compelled by suit to erect a building where the law imposed this duty upon him. Very truly yours, THOS. M. HONAN.
