which, Merchants Declare, WIN
Add Much to the Already Great
Rent Burden.

A large number Of real estate men
and retail merchants appeared be-
fore the Board Of Assessors yester-

Mayor, to enter their protest AGAINST

property ON Broad Street, within the
bounds Of Madison Ward.

over the last assessment. II was
said that the great prices paid for
individual pieces OF property were
for speculative purposes. and did not
represent the actual value Of the
property.
The commissioners explained they
were not fixing taxes. but were
simply assessing the property ct
what they believed its market value.
II any reasonable excuse could be
given why assessments should be re-
duced. they were willing to act ac-.
cordingly.

MASS MEETING WILL
 DETERMINE JULY
 FOURTH OBSERVANCE
Citizens Must Decide Whether or Not They Will Celebrate Ma tiOn'S Birthday; Opinions Div- erSified.

Next Tuesday evening will definitely determine whether or no there is to be any organized and concerted effort for the celebration of July Fourth. A scond and final attempt will then be made to hold a citizens mass meeting to determine the matter and if the decision is favorable to the celebra- ton, tben a new Fourth of July cele- bIation committee will be named to lake over the funds left from last year end to make arrangements for a celebration this year
 Al the last meeting of the Conner cial Club. directors the secretary was instructed to take up the matter of Independence Day celebration with the Disbursements Protective Asso- citation He saw J. C. White presi- dent of the Association who in turn interviewed number Of their mem bers. These he found generally to favor the idea of something in the line of a celebration, though less elab- crate than in past years. Instead of taking three days to blow off a years accumulation of patriotism. their idea was to have it over in one day, There upon it was decided by the officials of the two organizations that a second call shall issue for a mass meeting to once and for all determine the matter How deep seated is the desire for a celebration will be shown by the at- tendance at the meeting. If that be good work, will start at once for there will be less than five weeks for preparation If the attendance be small it is probable that no further steps will be taken and Bisbee will sec one of the quietest Fourths since the camp was started
 It does not devolve on the Conner cial Club to arrange for celebrating the Fourth. It has been the custom for that organization to issue the call for a citizens meeting when a commit tee is named to take up the work. One call has already issued that was not needed. New the call eminates from both business organizations

President J. C. White of the Busi- ness Mems Protective Association states that his attitude relative to the matter of July 4th celebration has been misrepresented in reports. Pre- sident White wishes his position in the matter to be correctly under stood and expresses his sentiments in this way:
 "I have seen the business men and found them willing to contribute to such a celebration but no decision, whether or not to hold a celebration, will be made until next Tuesday evenings meeting"
 White wishes to correct the report that he found sentiment which would assure the holding of the eel. ebration In case of a decided senti- timent in favor of the project being manifest at Tuesdays discussion of the question. there appears to be a sufficient sentiment to back the will of the people

ENGLISH SCHOOL TEACH
ERS WANT TO INSTRUCT
BOYS IN MILITARY
TACTICS

LONDON, Feb. 4.-The question OF
military training in the schools is
now a live one over all Britain, and
the chief agitators are not army men
but teachers. Lack of proper material
for officers to take the place of those
killed and injured at the front and to
supply Kitchener's huge new army
and the inadequately Differed terri
torial force, is one of the most serious
problems of the war All of the higher
schools have been called on for subal-
terms, as the British Tommy" objects
to serving under any officer not born a
gentleman. The teachers feel that
they were in a sense to blame for not
having given their students some ele-
mental preliminary training further
than that of the small student officers
corps.
At meeting Of the Incorporated
Association of Headmasters in the
London Guildhall, F. H. Templar said
in regard to the New Zealand system
of universal military training in the
schools: while CONSUMPTION pro-
duces militarism, national training de-
stroys it. The citizen soldier is man
whose every interest is bound up with
the maintenance of peace"
Another speaker pointed out that
military drill and rife shooting were
compulsory in the Swiss schools, yet
he asked who could accuse the Swiss
of militarism.
A resolution declaring that military
training in the schools would save the
country from having to improvise an
army in war times by providing a
reservoir Of partly trained men, was
passed with only a few dissenting
votes.
