APPRECIATES HIS FRIENDS
This Action Leaves Clear Field for
Mayor Dedman, Who Is Just Clos.
ing His First Term-LikeIy No
Other Candidate.

It is a clear track for Mayor Ded-
man, This was practically assured
this morning when Louis Loeb an
nounced this forenoon that he had de-
cided that he would not make the
race, notwithstanding the fact that
he has been sorely importuned by a
host of friends to offer as a candi.
date, with the assurance that they
would use their utmost efforts to put
him over the wire winner.
In making the decision Mr.. Loeb
said he was actuated from a strong
friendship for the present mayor, not
desiring to oppose him, and from the
fact that he did not feel that he had
the time to spare from his business
either to make the canvass or to give
to the Office should he be elected.
He expressed himself as very much
appreciative of the confidence shown
by those who had offered support In
the event he would run.

TEACHERS MEETING
GOOD ATTENDANCE
At COURT HOUSE
SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT socIE-
TN AS AN EDUCATIONAL FAC
TOR IN COUNTY.
AN INSPIRATION TO MANY
Ladies' Exceed the Men Not Only in
Numbers But Also In the Percent
age Of Regular Attendance on the
Monthly Meetings.

About seventy-five of the teachers
of the county responded to the call
for the regular monthly meeting for
October at the court house Saturday
morning.
AS usual the attendance is made
up largely of the fairer sex, they be.
ing in the majority as teachers. 1t
is also noted that as a usual thing
the percentage of the attendance is
better on the part of the ladies.
Whether this is an indication that the
men are of the opinion that they dc
not need the advantages to be gain.
ed as badly as do the ladies is not
known The percentage of the teach
ers in the county is about four fe.
males TO one male, and the attend
ance on the monthly meetings is gen
orally about six females to one male
There is a difference, however, in
favor of the male members OF the
teachers association, and that is that
the men are not so slow about enter
ing into the discussions as are the la
dies.
The meeting this morning was pre-
sided over by President Stephens, of
Mt. Pleasant, and Miss Mary Black.
burn, the efficient secretary, was also
at her post. In fact she is the most
regular attendant, perhaps, of any OF
the members.
Following the regular discussions
of the state course the school i'm.
provement society held its meeting
with the usual encouraging reports
from the various schools.
This society has been one of the
strongest factors during the past few
years in placing the schools on the
high plane they now occupy and
bids fair to take the lead in progress
sive educational steps. It should be
encouraged in every way possible,
and the teachers should be commend
ed for taking up and continuing the
work as they have. Many schools in
the county have been inspired to
higher and better work only by the
reports that have been made by some
Of the other schools.
Last Saturday was pay day for the
teachers but large majority of those
who had to come any distance did not
call for their vouchers until today

NEW NATIONAL GUARD LAW
Will Make the Militia Available for
Service Anywhere in World

Washington, July B.-Complete agree
ment was reached, today. between the
war department and the executive com
mittce of the National Guard Association
on the general outline of a bill designed
to make the organized militia available
for immediate service in any part of the
world as a part of the regular army. he
measure will be perfected in the near
future and introduced in Congress with
the endorsement of the war department
and the state militia authorities
The proposed new law would provide
for the payment of miltiamen by the
national government, the payments to be
made in lump sums to the state author
tiles and disbursed upon reports by IN
spectors of the regular army. testifying
to the complete efficiency. 1t would
overcome the effect of decision by At
torney General Wickersham that the mi
litia could not be used outside of the
territorial limits of the United States.
This is to be accomplished by maintain
ing the militia in strict accordance with
the regular army organization and "
transferring the organization bodily. Of
fcers and privates. into the regular
army in case of need.
