; "Some time tig a special term of civil

' at :the request of the chairman of, the
board of county co.mmi3sioners. Judge
' Carter was assigned to. hold this.spe

petition signed by 'the board of .county
commissioners, the solicitor and some
- other citizens, requesting me to substi
' tue" a special criminal tf rm of the spe
cial civil term December 15 and to desig
' nate Judge Carter to hold this special
criminal term. I replied to the chairman
that I would gladly comply with his re
quest and order a substitution of a crim
inal for the civil erin, but under the
conditions I would not designate Judge
Carter to hold this special criminal term.
"The facts that move to me decline
to designate Judge Carter to hold this
criminal term are as follows:
"M a recent term of criminal court
in Asheville, held by Judge Carter, he
. ordered the grand jury to investigate"
' alleged violations of the prohibition law.
' The grand jury did not make this inves
, ligation, or at least did not report any
" investigation to the court, fudge Car
ter then announced, according, to news
paper reports, that he would make in
vestigation himself and decided to sit' as
a committing magistrate with the view
of binding pver to the court having ju
risdiction anv alleged offenders against
. the; prohibition, law, against jwhom he
i. might find sufficient; evidence.
. "He has made a thorough and search
ing investigation into all alleged viola-'
iV tions of the law and has bound over
certain persons charged with such vio
lations. The piirpose.of the special crim
inal term asked for wis to try the de
fendants whom Judge Carter has held
sitting aj ' a ; committing magistrate.
"Under these facts it would be mai-

TODAY
Of Attack Has Be in
lined To Strike From
The North.
Out-
El Paso, Texas, Nov. 8. "On to
Chihuahua!" is the nfewest slogan of
constitutionalist army in Juarez, Gen
eral Pancho Villa's rebel army of 6,000
men flushed with its recent victory near
Juarez over the federal army of Chihua
hua, will move out of Juarez against
Chihuahua City "today or Saturday at
the latest, according to announcement
mad ' this morning by the rebel Jeadc
himself. One thousand men under the
command of General Aguirro Benavides
will be left to Garrison Juarez.
"If I do not hear by tonight
that the enemy is again coming north
ward, I will send my army against the
state capital immediately," slid General
Villa. "I believe that the federals who
were defeated Tuesday before Juarez,
have by this time reached Chihuahua,
but it is not imnossible that, hemmed
in as they are, they will ake another
sally northward.
"In case this happens,, my army will
be leaving here by tonight to meet
the enemy. If the Huertistas have not
come north by tomorrow night I will
move against the capital and this time
we will not relinquish the seige until
the city is in our hands.
"This time the fight will be brief, I
believe. With the artillery we have cap
tured from the federals, it will be a
comparatively easy matter to hammer
their fortifications in the capital to
pieces. If they choose -to come out
side the city to fight us, the task will
be all the more simple, for it has been
demonstrated what my men can do to
them in th o;)en field. What we will
do when Chihuahua ours is too far
in thejfuttire today. The way to the
City of Mexico will be more open than
ever before, will it not?'J
Overland and by train General Villa's
troops will depart from Juarez. The
problem of sufficient rolling stock to
carry his forces has been greatly les
sened by the capture of fou federal
trains in the recent three day battle,
below the border.
Chihuahua wUI be assaulted from
three directions, according to the rebel
commander-in-chief, providing the fed
erals remain the city. Colonel Julio
Acosta's column of 800 men. now
operating in the Gucrrer district of
Western Chihuahua, will move on the
capital by way of the Mexican North
western railroad, striking the city from
the west.
Villa's army will strike from the
North, while 2,000 rebels under General
Manuel Caho, who are located around
Santa Rasalie, will move up from the
South. It is estimated that nearly 10,
000 men can be concentrated by the
Chihuahua rebel chieftain for the seige
of the capital.
The first money being issued by the
rebels resulted in Juarez being closed
tight Jas a drum today. The merchants
refuse absolutely to accept, and shut
up their places of business. Villa
threatens to break in their doors and
confiscate their stocks. Juarez mer
chants, who refuse to accept the cur
rency,: will be fined 500 pesos accord
ing, to printed circulars issued this
morning by Colonel Juan N. Medina,
rebel garrison commander in Juarez.
irThe refusal laot night of a Juarez
gambling house employe to accept a
50 peso bill issued by the constitution
alist bank. an.d tendered by a rebel of
ficer, Lieutenant F. Casares, cost the
.life ' of Casares and another rebel
soldier: A city patrolman shot Casares,
the bullet tearing away his lower jaw
and- causing a wound from which he
died several hours latere A rebel
soldier from- Casares' command, wno
attempted to avenge the shooting of h i
chief, . was killed by" a. bullet from the
patrolman's - revolver a few- minute
after the shooting of the-lieutenant.

In The Compensation
Of Teachers.
Raleigh, Nov. 2X. - -Members of the
Teachers' Assembly and a vast audi
ence ot citizens uenerallv. heard with
great pleasure and approval the an
nual address of President A. C. Rey
nolds of the assembly tonight on "A
Professional Body of Teachers and
How to Secure and Retain Such a
Body."
He insisted that theie must be
such high and uniform requirements
for entering upon this work and pro
tection of those engaged in it, in
order to induce men and women , of
proper capacity and training to take
up the work is a life profession ir.fli
stead of as a steppii g stone t some
thing else. The home, the school and
special training best calculated to
develop teachers really worth while,
were treated forcibly, the speaker de
claring that none should teach ex
cept those who really inspire in child
ren a desire for knowledge and who
have a personality that will command
respect, along with nobility of charac
ter. He said the present system of exam
ining and licensing high school teachers
has provided a necleus on which
to build an efficient professional or
ganization of leat hers. The State De
partment of luliii ition has already
prepared lo be pressed upon the next
l.cgilsafure for enactment of a bill for
bringing teaching up lo a professional
standing. The bill will give opportunity
for those now in the service who
.ire deficient to bring themselves up
to the required standard, those fail
ing to qualify in proper time to be clim- ;
inated from leaching service.
Along with raising the standards of
equipment there must, he argued, be
advancement
tract and h
women.
