CONTROL OF PRIMARIES

tory in Prince George County.
Special Dispatch to The Star.
UPPER MARLBORO. June 16.-That
the organization wing Of the democratic
party in Prince George county headed
by State Senator William B. Clagett, pro-
poses to retain control of the party's
affairs for at least another year, was
made evident yesterday at a meeting of
the election supervisors held here for the
purpose of appointing the judges and
clerks of election at the coming primary
meetings throughout the county
The complete list of these officials was
not announced, but the supervisors made
known a sufficient number of appointees
to demonstrate the fact that the oreani-
cation forces will have the advantage
of friendly judges at the primaries A
notable instance of the stand taken by
the organization was in Chillum district.
This is the home of ]. Enos Ray. jr.,
speaker of the Maryland house of dele
gates. 1t was given out several months
ago that Mr.. Ray was playing with the
organizations; in fact, that Senator Clag-
EFT had promised to use his influence
to see that he was nominated for the
state senate this fall. Then came the
| announcement that DR.. Charles A. Wells
of Hyattsville was an aspirant for the
same office. The friends of DIR. Wells
LOOK the ISHt 10 NOME 4,
and for several weeks a vigorous contest
for the control of the delegation from
this district has been going on among
the friends of Mr.. Ray and DR.. Wells.
Charles f. Niolland, the registration Of
ficer from this district. took sides with
Mr.. Ray. and as these officers act as
judges at the primary elections the
friends of DR.. Wells proceeded to have
Violland removed. About thirty of them
| went TO Marlboro yesterday and demand
ed that Charles Norton be appointed in
Mr. Viollands place. They carried their
point and Mr.. Violland was removed and
Mr.. Norton appointed in his stead. The
organization forces claim that Mr.. Ray
betrayed them and went over to the
differentiation faction In retaliation
they removed the registration officer, who
was in sympathy with him.
The naming of Mr.. Norton, a strong
| friend of DIR. Wells. is regarded as a
serious blow TO the Ray faction, as the
| judges have the entire say as to who
shall vote at the primaries.

At the meeting of the Board Of Education
last night Member Brooks Reed placed him
self on record as opposed to permitting
the teachers OF the public schools Of Coun-
ell Bluffs TO attend the annual meeting
Of the Iowa State Teachers association at
what he considered the expense and time
Of the school district.
1T is establishing a bad precedent TO per-
init these teachers to go away on a junket
Of this kind" declared Mr.. Reed. when
during vacation they will not spend any
Of their time or any of their money in
an effort to improve themselves. The
trouble with the schools here is that they
are loaded down with a lot Of incompetent
teachers who have become veritable
barnacles. No matter how incompetent,
they are kept on the list and their salaries
increased yearly. They never die, they
never get married, but they Hang onto their
jobs like grim death. 1 for one believe
it is time to stop closing the schools on
every possible excuse"
Mr.. Reeds arraignment of the teachers Of
the city schools was made when Superin-
tendent BeveTidge asked the board to per-
init of the closing Of the high school for
two days of the state meeting at Des
Moines as a number Of the faculty desired
to attend. He also asked that any teachers
who desired to attend be permitted to do
so without loss of pay for the two days.
The request, after a prolonged discussion,
was granted, and the high school teachers
who do not go to Des Molnes will be
utilized to fill the places of the grade
teachers who do attend the meeting.
At the suggestion of superintendent
Beveridge it was decided to purchase eighty
rifles for the cadet company at a cost Of
$l75 a weapon.
The question of boiler Insurance was re-
ferred to a special committee consisting

his amount might be reduced if the dis
trict was not liable for injury to children
or teachers.

lowing statistical report for the first month

man who boarded at the Pride home, was
acquitted In the district court last evening,
The case was given to the jury about 8
O'Clock and the verdict Of acquittal was re-
turned at 1880 o'clock.

the plea that Francis was insane when he
made his attack with the razor on Pride
and that there was no alternative left to
Pride in order to save his life but to shoot
his assaiiant.
