SAN BERNARDINO. July 2.-San 3er
nardino is up with the van of progress
and has lady member of the school
board. The board of education has elect
ed Mrs. f. B. Daley to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation of Director e.
d. Elliott. 1t has also declined to accep!
the resignation of Professor 7. II. Kirk
as supervising principal of the ward
schools of the city and asked him to with
draw it.
At the meeting last night the chair
usually occupied by Mr.. Elliott was vacant
and the first business transacted was to
accept his resignation, and a ballot was
then ordered for choice to fill the va.
cancy. 1t resulted in three votes for Mrs.
Daley and one for DR.. S. G. Huff. The
election was made unanimous by a
motion. and DR.. Colliver was then dis
patched in search of the newly elected
director. She was soon ushered IN and
the newly constituted board proceeded to
transact other business.
Mrs. Anna Pierce. who had been elected
to position in the Terrace school, filed
her resignation, which was accepted.
Mrs. Deming was elected to fill her place
at salary Of $50 monh.
Mrs. Briggs of Pasadena was elected
instructor in Latin in the high school
at a salary of $1,000 per annum. Miss Fer
rls' salary was fixe1 at $1,000. G. ii. Ash
ley OF Stockton was elected instructor in
chemistry and physics at salary of $1,000
per annrm.
S. G. Crowell was elected janitor at a
salary of $50. H. J. Allison was elected
janitor at the high schoo and superivs-
ing janitor for the city. for which he
will receive $S5 per month.
Steward W. W. Tibbot did not vacate at
the county hospital yesterday as per
resolution of the board of supervisors
adopted a month ago. Instead, such a
change had come over the spirit of their
dream that the board decided to retain
Mr.. Tibbot until October.
The action of the,,boar a month ago in
declaring the position vacant was taken
solely OH the ground of economy. There
sition, but the board asked DR.. hom pson
where he could economlze, and he said
he could dispense with the services of the
steward and matron, thus saving about
$40 per month.
But Mr.. Tibbot s!riends have not been
idle during the month, and the result of
their activity is seen in the action taken
by the board yesterday. Thew even threat
ened DR.. Thompson, and told him it Mr..
Tibbot was to be sacrificed to economy
his head would go INTO the basket very
quickly on some other pretext. while such
a rumpus in general was likely to be
kicked up that the memb bers of the board
thought it wise to fling economy to the
winds and do something for the SAKE OF
harmony.
People who have been sufficiently out
OF the game to take dlsinterested view
of the situation have been witnessing one
of the most determined political fights
which ever occurred in county politics in
the interim between campaigns, and the
''pull'' has been so strongly exerted in
some direction that the office of steward
will not be abolished for at least three
months.
The city is in holiday garb. Third,
Court. D and Il streets are seas of waving
color, while in the residence parts of the
city many dwellings have been decorated
in honor Of the city's big two-days' cele-
bration Of Independence day.
One of the features OF the two-days' fete
will be the racing at the Garner tract.
