Now   v.-.th   the jiassage of tlie amendment it jj claim¬ ed   the  cat  Is  out   of  the  bag  and   in return for favorable .action r.n his pet amendment  it is claimed that he stood by  and   allowed   the   oth.^r   legislation to  go  by  wiihout   apiilyintr  th--  spras;. The  I'huiis  t'aso.
Factional fights flt Pains township brought about an unusual -.•ondition and the minority faction of the board taking advantage ' of the three- fourths vote rule, as comtirised In the new code, were enabled to force Messrs ("onion ajid (gibbons. reLxtives of the majority directors, out of their places.
To remedy this tho Cuniiif;' amend¬ ment to the code provides. «hat this majority vote  rule shall not  api)ly to
teachers  who shall  havp  beeu   in  th«j employ   of   the   district   prior   to   tbaj election of all  of  the memberj of th«| board.    This was further ame,.nded !»j its Iiassage through tiie hou.se so that a two-thirds vote is a'l that is needed. This   will   apply   to    districts   wh-eira seven   members   com orise   th?   board but   will not ch.ange (-onditions  where but five members direct the school af¬ fairs.
Messrs. Conlon and Oihbons havtiT been teachers foi- over twenty yeaJV and long before their relat'ves se¬ cured places on the board. This w-illij permit the members of the board to' elect them next fail by a majority- vote alone, even if they fail of th» two-thords vote !is the new reading of the code exempts them from th» majority rt-Muirement. i

In AVilkes-Barre tfiw-nshipC and Swoyersvill-* similar cc.idition* existed but by an in:er district deid; the difficulty wa.s surmounted. Now! it is claimed if the same division of sirength exists the rirectors of hotbi districts will be able to retain thtSfr rt'Iatlves  in  the  home  districte. 1
