Excerpt from Report of the Principal of the State Normal School: Shewing the Condition of the Public Schools of Maryland, With the Reports of the County School Commissioners, for the Year Ending September 30, 1869 It may he remarked, in explanation of this fact, that in some instances the School Boards neglected to require the County Commissioners to levy any tax; in some instances the County Commissioners refused to levy it when required; in some cases the School Board neglected to ask as much as was really needed and in some cases the County Commis sioners refused to levy all that was demanded. Serious com plaint has also been made that in several counties the tax, when collected, has not been promptly paid over to the treas arer of the School Commissioners. Add to this that the Free School Fund has been diminished by the action of the Banks, and that the receipts from the State School tax for the year have been smaller than was expected, being in 1869, against $412,088.28in 1868 or, ex cluding Baltimore City, in 1869, against $296, in 1868.
