10 RETAIN PLACE
Trainmen Say He Has Cincli
For Re-election as
Grand blaster.
Although the election' 6f officer* tor
the next two year* of the Brotherhood
of Kailway Trainmen will not' take
place until the last of the convention,
considerable tntercit la being manifest
ed In the outcome.
That Grand Master Morrissey will be
re-elected to the posltlop he has filled
In such nn admirable manner for the
put twelve years, there lino doubt In
the minds of those conversant with the
affairs of the big organization.
Elected to his high position while
working ns a brakeman on a freight
train. Mr. Morrissey has shown a re
markable fitness for the work, and It Is
generally conceded that It has been
largely through his efforts that the
organization Is what It Is today. At
the time he was elected grand master
the organization had iv membership of
something like 18,000, and n* has work
ed for the nrgnnlzatton of the trainmen
of the country until there Is now a
membership of 91.000.
It has been said by those conversant
with Mr. Morrissey's ability that had
he worked as hard and devoted
much brain work and had shown
much ability for leading such a big
organization while Ir. the employ of a
corporation or large insurance com
pany, ho would be today among the
hlgh-st salaried of men In the country.
hut «hat he has done has been for
the benefit of his brother trainmen and
not for himself. Orand Master Mor-
riwey has been helped In this work of
building up by an efficient corpe of
grand officers and the fact that these
officers have not been constantly
changed la declared to be largely re-
zponslble for the excellent showing
made.

SLATON IS SILENT
AS TO RE-ELECTION
“If .Major Slaton docs not Intend to
stand for re-election as superintend
ent of the public schools, I havs heard
nothing about ItL. Z. Rosser, presi
dent of the board of education.
"The matter concerns the board of
education, and Is up to the gentlemen
who compose It. I, and the other
members of the family, do not wish to
discuss It.''—J. M. Slaton, Son of Ma
jor Slaton.
Theao statements were made relative
to the rumor- that Major J. F. Slaton,
Mil-.-rlnt-n-l.-nl -.1 tin- Ml.mill .public
schools, would not stand for re-election
by the board.
Major Slaton Is III, and, therefore,
would not give out a statement ot any
kind. He has been III for several
months, nnd It Is principally for this
reason, the rumor goes, that Major
Slaton will not stand for re-election.
But two people are mentioned to
succeed Major Slaton. One Is L. M.
Landrum, assistant superintendent, and
the other W. M. Slaton, principal of
tho Boys’ High -School and son of the
present eui- i Int-Miiient.
The board Is said to be divided be
tween these two, and. ln case Major
Staton does not stand for re-election,
the contest for the place will be nn In
