Six Members to be Chosen for
Public School' Board,
Wingham, Feb, 8.—As aresale of
one of the most peculiar jnrunicipa
mix-ups that have ever occurred in
'this district, .Mayor• A. J. Irwin Sat-
unday resigned to run again as
soon as- a nlew"election can be ar-
ranged, , -
An election will also be held for
six meeemeerse of the .publle school
board and the present ,board of ed-
ucation, iwhich gear ,supposed to be
an arnalgam�ation'' I the high school
and public school boards, will be
aboliseead.
Made an Invtestigati`on,
This .is'thee climax which has fol-
lowed `a little investigation be,Coun
cillos Morton, a local lawyieand
has caused the greatest political
sensation Wingham ?has' yet known,
Bejdiscovered while. looking
through his-. law books a few days
ago that last year's council by tak-
ing the hatter into its own hands
and doing away with the public
school board and forming whathas
been known, as the .board of educe
tion, .actieed in an enitirely illegal
manner in that no vote of --the
ret'eeepayers was taken.
At the time, strong protest was
made against the council's. action,
which. many citizens did not hes-
itate to call high handed. The mat
ter, however, was put throwgh and
Ibe old public school board of
which Dr. Irwin was a inle?inber,
was' abolished.
Wen a Big Victory,.
On the strength of the warm
feelings stirred up among the elec-
tions Dr. Irwin ran for mayor and
was returned by a big majority.
He did not think it r>ieecessery to
design from the public school. board
judging that as it had been abol-
ished, his position just naturally
eareeetl. Here,, howeever, lie erred
and as a result now finds. that he
has bean holding the office of may-
or of Wingham for over a month
illegally.
Will Run Again..
"There will be a new nomination
Meed es quickly as•_ possible, Dr,
Irwin told the Advertiser Saturday
evening. "It will in all probability
be held a week from Monday. You
can state most certainly that I will
ole a candidate for the mayor•,allty
again. I am not expecting .any op-
position under the clrcumstageces. ;
"I blame Mayor Geo. Spotton for
the whole mix-up,"' he continued.'
"Title council last fall, despite the
strongeost protests we could make,
forced this matter througlee ' ,.
"To say that it was high-hand,�erl
is putting le Rnildly. On the
strength of what happened I ran
for mayor and was returned by a
handsome majority. This shows
what the ratepayers thought of
what was done.”
Destroyed Automatically,
Mayor Irwin stated to the Adver
tiseer that as a result of what bed
bapp;aned the so-called board of
education passes out 0f existence
automatically, as it eves never leg-
ally elected.
"The old public school board will
be eevived," he said. "There are
six men to be elected on it, and
the nominations will be made at
the same time that nominations foil
the mayoralty are taking plane.
The election will be held as the
law clieeets, a week after 'nomin-
ation.There are among Wingham
electors a great many who resent-
ed strongly the board bo i of education
idea that vas fenced anthem, and
they will welcome the return of
the old 'public and high school
boards welled :before, as more ap-
propriate for the town."
