A historical Maryland style correspondence from Rolesville NC recounts a long battle over public schooling starting about twelve years ago. It details growth from a single teacher to a two-teacher operation, political clashes during the 82 reform movement, and a clash between parties over who should lead the school.
The Wilson County Alliance urges the North Carolina General Assembly to cap interest at 6 percent, enact strict usury laws, reduce state expenses, and equalize taxation to prevent double taxation on mortgaged property. It also calls for longer public school terms and repeal of 1893 charter amendments, plus note on horse price declines totaling tens of millions.
