fight was begun two years ago. but

been settled and forgotten.
Il has been the custom for several
years for the Dover Board Of Edu-

pose-that of allowing any teachernot
reelected to secure another position
and if any teachers are TO be employ

schools have employed them Ac-
cording to this custom, at last nights
meeting of the Board of Education
here was a disposition on the part
of some of the members 10 adjourn
the meeting without discussing the
teacher question.

Der OF the Board for several years,
but whose three-year term with M.
A. Hartnett and w. p. Satterfeld, ex-

that they be elected Before the
question was voted on, Commissioner
G. ID. Jackson. who was elected last
year. said that the time for electing
teachers had been decided upon by
the committee on education, com
posed of himself, Prof. Wesley Webb
and S. H. Carson. No report Of such
action had been made to the Board so
far as can be learned. Mr.. Jackson,
to verify his statement called on
