ZVntlvrs Preparing.
The threat of another explosion over
the employment of F. W. Bason, a
manual training teacher In the public
schools, was dissipated at the meeting of
the. Board of Education last night when
the board, by a vote of ten to two J.
J. Foster and C. T. Walker dissenting
accepted the report or the committee on
'teachers and Instructions. The commlt
'tee recommended that no action be taken.
Members of the Central Labor union
wre present to back up the demand that
Bason be fired and John Kerrigan,
manual training teacher at the High
school and son of a leading member
of the Central Labor union, be employed
In, his stead.
,'Mr. Kerrigan Is an Omaha man and
well qualified for the place." said Presi
dont George E. Norman of the Central
I-abor union, "we would like to know
why you do not consider him."
Norman demanded to know whether
Superintendent B. U. Graff had made &
epeclal trip east to Investigate a system
whereby the 'Illinois Central railroad em
ployed high school students to replace
strikers. Mr. Graff said: .
''I know nothing of any system of this
kind used by the Illinois Central or any
other railroad and did not make a
trip east last year."
Committee'" View of Case.
Following Is the report or the teachers'
committee, of which A. C. Kennedy Is
Chairman:
Your committee on teachers and in
structions to whom was referred the
communication of the Central Labor
union relative to F. W. Bason begs
leave to report that thfy very
care fully Investigated the matter and
find that Mr. Bason was employed as
vocational director after a careful in
quiry by the superintendent of instruction
as to his fitness and Qualifications for the
position. The superintendent of Instruc
tion Informs us that Mr. Bason was
most highly recommended by his former
employers as a very efficient and capable
instructor and a man of good moral
character and that he Is doing splendid
work and has proved himself equal to
the standard of his recommendations.
Tour committee further reports that at
the time of the engagement of Mr. Bason
the question of his attitude toward
organized labor was never mentioned or
oven thought of by your committee, the
only question being that of his ability
nnd qualifications for the position to bo
filled:
Your committee further reports that as
Mr. Bason lifts been employed by the
Board of Education for the present school
year and Is reported by the superintend
ent of Instruction as doing his work
capably and efficiently your committee
begs leava to reeommend that no action
be taken In the matter and that the com
munication of the Central Labor union
bo placed on file.

SANTA FE. N. M., Nov. 18.-Flften
hundred Navajo Indians have rallied In
defense of renegades, and are reported
In armed encampment on Beautiful
mountain, thirty-five miles southwest of
the Ship Rock agenoy, defying United
States Marshal Hudspeth to toko pris
oner the renegades who are wanted on
federal warrants charging horse stealing,
assault and bigamy.
Two troops of cavalry have been asked
for by the marshal and the request has
been referred by the War department to
Major General Carter, In command of
the border patrol.
It ,1s feared that before the -cavalry
arrives the renegades will be joined by
many more at the command of the med
icine men and of the plural wife men,
who are reported to be stirring the
Navajos to rebellion.
Only One Ilonte to Snmmlt.

proachable by only ons tortuous route.
Agent W. T. Shelton Is at the agency
awaiting the arrival of the troops. No
word was received tonight that they
had started.
Marshal Hudspeth, after surveying the
position of the Indians, returned here to
night with three of the original eleven
renegades he was sent from here ten days
ago to arrest. The eight others escaped
and rallied their tribesmen to their de
fense, before the marshal reached the
agency.
The request for troops was made to
day at a conference at the agency be
tween Indian Agents Sheldon and Par
auet, and Major J. T. McLaughlin, after
the Navajos had sent word that the
renegades would not be -given up and
that they would not only, resist arrest,
but that If attacked they would resist,
burn the agency and kill those In charge.
Troops Askut for afornl Effect,
At the suggestion of Major MoLaughlln
cavalry aa asked becuse of the moral
effect, which the sheriff's poss could not
produce.
An investigation during the day by tho.
marshal and the Indian agents showed
that the Indians surrounding the renegado
leader had rounded up their cattle and
sheep, harvested their corn, and other
wise mado ready for a Blege.
They are lead by Chief Blackhorse and
150 young bucks. Their encampment sur
rounds the Noel trading post on Beauti
ful mountain.

on 'the Inserts or supplementary adver

reasons why by- quoting profits on certain
articles which he advertised only by in

vertising grew out of the discussion, and
before tho evening was over the mem
bers of the club were estimating the rela-
tlvo values of Inserts printed on paper

The outcome of the discussion was tho
advocating of Insert advertising as a
means of selling urtlclcs which could not
be advertised extensively In any other
form. Host of the members favored the
blotting paper Insert as tho better.
