Tha following decision has been handed down by Hon. E. K. Goudy , superintendent of public instruction , in the case of district in , Flllmoro county , on the legality of the action ot said district In changing the school house at an adjourned session of the annual mooting : Station S. sub-division 11. prorldcs that "Tho qualified voters , when lawfully ns- sumblou , may mljourn from time to time us nmy bo necessary to designate u ttlio for u school houso" and "to change tlio same by a similar [ tvtn-thlrda ] vote ut any annual meet- In . " Tbo former language of the statute wns : "And to change the samontuny regular moot ing. " The word "annual" In our present statute being substituted for the word "ropular , " on the suggestion of u former superintendent with the purpose of making the meaning of tlu < Inw moro clear. In 1837 a bill wnt Introducer ! embodying the Interpretation of this office on this particular point. This bill recites tlio provisions for locating a site. Thun In a sentence separate and distinct from that which provlil es for lo cating H site It sets forth this : "They mny clianirn any site at tlui annual meeting by twothirdsoto of these present. " Thus allowing that "locating 11 site and "changing n site" nru tno separate and distinct acts : the former buln an act of necessity which may hi ) dona at an adjourned meutlnu , if from any Ciiuso the hlto hail not been located at the Ur > t or annual mooting. While the latter , the chunking of site , not being essential , but only u matter of convenience , can only bo done at the nnnimt district meeting. In the fifteenth XulirasUa rcnort , State vs. Cones , Is a dictum ot the court In which the following lungimuo IB used : "Section H pro vides ( or an adjournment from time to tlma for the purpose of locating H site : but wo Iml ] no authority to adjourn for the election of olllcors. " So while authority Is formed for an adjourn ment to designate a silo for a school homo I Und no authority for changing .1 situ once designated uxcupt at an animal meeting. I shall therefore hold that tlio action of dis trict No. fi of nilmoro county in voting to chance the school house Kite at a mooting other than the annual mooting la Invalid and so of no eiruct.
