THE MESSENGER PUBLISHING CO., Coldsboro, N. C. Chajiberlain has been beaten. Six hundred members of the National Federation met in London on the 5th, and he was badly routed. Of ' the six hundred voters but .twentv-five were for sustaining him in his opposition to Mr, Glidstone. "Even the House of Representatives has caught the infection, and struck yesterday for a change of hours in its working day." Yes, but it struck for more hours to the day in order to make up for its dilatoriness in the early part of the, session. The Missouri PacifiTstrike was con cluded last Tuesday by the return of the men to work. This strike had very little to justify it. - The Messenger, as a friend of the Knights of Labor, is obliged to admit this. It seems that the difficulty was arranged by the Congressional Committee, which went out there week before last. The Knights of Labor have expelled , Martin Irons, whose name has be come so well-known in connection with the great strike on Gould's system of railroads. The alleged reason is, that he refused to obey General Master Workman Powderly's orders, and for the reason that he Stubbornly refused to arbitrate. Since writing the above the report is contradicted. The riots in Chicago on Tuesday were directly the work of the socialis tic people in that city. Time and time again fears have been expressed that the irresponsible foreign element there would create trouble. At last these fears have been realized, and under the red flag and with their dynamite bombs the socialists made a merry time of it. This is a free country, bat freedom is not license, and the Chica go socialists ought to have received the measure of ' justice in the past, when their violence and disorder were distinctly a menace to the law. The Republicans are very generally engaged in the pleasant but generally profitless prospective of counting their chickens in advance. The present Democratic majority in the House of gaining of twenty-three seats would give the Republicans a majority. The Republican organs are cheering up the politicians by predictions that they will win in thirty districts which they have "spotted." This kind of thing will go on from now until fall. Then the organ will turn around and ex plain at length how it was that the predictions miscarried. , The great strike on the Gould sys tem of railways in the West and South west has been brought to a close, and the strikers have asked to be restored to places which they left, upon the same terms upon which they were working when they struck. Of course those whose places have been filled by new men will not be taken back, and the only effect' of the strike has been that some will lose their places perma nently, and all will lose the wages for the time during which they were out. Lives have been lost and property de- stroyed, but the men who struck have derived no benefit from their action. This was because, instead of listening to the advice of coo and level-headed , men like Mr. Powderly, they allowed themselves to be lead by hotheaded men who were not capable of manag r ing the storm which they had raised. Nothing more conclusively estab lishes Mr. Gladstone's reputation as 'a great popular leader, and nothing per haps more clearly indicates the suc cess which awaits his plans than the following extract from f an article in the London Times on his recent mani festo to his Midlothian ; constituency : "The Prime Minister has recognized the fact that in his renunciation of the traditions of English politics as here tofore maintained by the constitutional statesmen of both parties he will not be able to drag at his chariot wheels the great body of thoughtful, inde pendent Liberal opinion ; and he ap peals, therefore, from what he chooses to call the spirit and power of class to . the nation, by which, it seems, he. means the artisans ,onr? norrinltnral - ... a w -laborers. A more striking example of demagogic temper in its most danger ous form has been .rarely recorded we believe has never before been as sociated with the name of an English minister." . . , , THE SCHOOL WHAT WILD ' YOU DO ABOUT IT? H The school has reached a crisis ; and, indeed, we hazard nothing in saying that Goldsboro is threatened hya crisis that bids woe and disaster fo its future growth and welfare. A's has already been announced in these col umns, there is now no machinery un der which" the school can be main tained, and not until the next Legisla ture convenes can any legislation be had. Can our citizens afford to Jet the school go down ? If so, our city au thorities may as well build a wall around the corporate limits of the city and let them proclaim to. .the outside world, in big letters, "that Goldsboro is finished." We cannot and will not believe that a people enjoying the reputation tor intelligence, enterprise and progressiveness, for all of which Goldsboro is so noted, will set silently by and permit the life blood to be sapped from this town, when a manly effort can so easily prevent it. The school was. established in Sep tember, 1881. What has been accom plished in these few years? It seems almost needless to point out the many blessings and benefits deriyed from it. The progress Goldsboro has made in her material advancements, the in crease in our population, the enhanced value.of real estate, and last, but not least, the improved mental condition of the children of Goldsboro, are facts that are evident to all our readers. We know that the population of the city has increased by the many strange faces we meet daily on the streets. "W e point with pride to the great bjaild ing boom that started up soon after the school was established , and when it was rare to find an empty house in Goldsboro. We read of Goldsboro's progress and enterprise in the press, and those who own property realize that theschool has brought about a decided increase in, valuation. The beaming eyes and bright and intelli gent faces of the children is evidence that the school has more than accom plished all that was, promised from it by its friends and advocates. And who would sadden the hearts of the 600 children now being trained at the school by depriving them of the splen did school facilities they have enjoyed for five years ? Think of it, citizens of Goldsboro ! The census of 1870 and 1880 placed Wayne at the bottom of the list by counties, excepting one, in educational statistics, and then compare statistics again and see how low North Carolina stands, rated along side with other States. You will behold a sad and lamentable picture. We are proud to say that the condition and darkness thus pictured does not now exist. The intellectual standard of Wayne county has changed greatly for the better. The Graded School has not only given light and education to the children of Goldsboro, but it has proven a strong stimulus to the cause of -education all through Wayne county, and indeed to the whole State. Following in the footsteps of Goldsboro, Graded Schools have been started at Wilson, Durham, Newbern, Kinston, and at other points in the State, and thanks to the kind praises of Dr. Curry and Dr. Mayo, the school of Goldsboro and its excellent reputation are known far and near. Let us look back to the days of 1880. What were the school facilities of Goldsboro then ? There was Prof. Troy's school, another by Mrs. Hum phrey and still another by Miss Mary Carrow. These were paying schools. The free school was taught in the Old Academy building by Mrs. A. G. Cra ton, and we remember well that from 3 to 4 months school was all that was afforded there. We hazard nothing in saying that altogether not exceed ing 150 children were able to receive an average of five months education a year. The present enrollment of the Graded School is 030. Is it not then evident that over 400 of those children were growing up either in ignorance or receiving an education far inferior to that afforded them at the Graded School f "But," said one of our citizens to us the other day, "why not curtail the school in its standard of excellence f Why not do away with all the grades above the 6th, and give the children simply the opportunity to read, write and count ?" That friend is just twen ty years behind the times. We pity the town that is beset by much, of such Rip Van Winkleism. Goldsboro owes its children the means of securing an education for everyday life; to pre pare them to become the men and wo men of the future, arid we know of no cause in which a community can spend money more generously than to educate its children. The rich; may be able to send their children to Universities and Colleges, tyit what of the poor ! And look at the result in this community. As we write we have in our mind boys and girls who have recently finished their course and some who are now finshing. They are a credit to the city. They will make noble man and noble women. But for the Graded School their future -would have been blighted. Again, cast your eyes over the published "roll of honor' of the school, and see how many of the chil dren of the poor, who could not get their education otherwise, lead the roll of honor. Would you deprive such children of the opportunity to win their way to position of intelli gence and usefulness? Again, a public school without the higher classes, while far better than no school, falls much short of public expectations. This has been the ex perience of other . cities and towns. Wherever the issue has been made the result proves this. The Hig'i School department acts as an incentive to the children in the lo wet "grades; it gives standard and excellence to the school; it affords educational facilities to the poor that they .could not otherwise enjoy; and it saves money to the more wealthy to whom the cost of sending their -' children to paying schools after they pass the 6th grada would prove burdensome in addition to their taxes. The High School de partment more than any other, brings us new and a desirable. class of popu lation, as few would otherwise come. These and other facts we could point out are strong reasons why the High School is a necessary adjunct to a city school. Then, too, the cost of the 7th and 8th grades of the school is, only about $700 a year. Surely that sum is expended to- a noble purpose. We propose1 to follow up this subject of such deep interest to Goldsboro in future issues, and shall continue our appeals to the public spirited citizens of Goldsboro in behalf of the school until we are satisfied that its success is assured, or else that the school is not wanted. '-' THE DISORDER AND THE REMEDY. The bloody anarchy that prevailed for a part of last week in Chicago and Milwaukee has startled the whole country. While the horrors of riot are not more unfrequent in our country than in some others, there are features connected with the late disturbances which were entirely novel to the Amer ican public. Hitherto we had not had the accursed bomb, and the worst that socialism had accomplished was to breed discontent in certain quarters. Now we have had a taste of the Paris Commune and the first instalment in the United States of Nihilist procedure. The taste is bad and the people desire no further instalment of the horrid programme of deatbj and destruction. Any very intelligent observer of passing events would hare learned sometime ago to expect something like this. For ;a great while these detest able agitators, the more detestable because they have no ground for such rash proceedings in a free country, have preached bloody crusade's against all law and order. They have tried to instill in the minds of the ignorant and thoughtless that the first duty of the citizen is to kill, murder, assassinate all who represent government in every form thereof, local, State and Federal. It was believed, and it is still believed, that the poisonous doctrine of social anarchy could not be effective in our body politic. The fearful scenes, else where described, appear to overthrow this confidence. But we should look deeper than the surface. We must remember first of all that times have changed- within the past twenty-five years. The onrush of the country to a bloated and, we fear, ill-digested prosperity' has been phenomenal. Along with the good things consumed we have devoured some aliment that our system does not at once assimilate. Hence riots and revolutionary ensig nia and bloody conflicts between the promoters of discord and the conser vators of the peace and order of-' the communit y . We should not be alarmed at even the large numbers arrayed against the laws. There are vast par ticles of unassimilated, foreign matter in the diseased body,, and the physi cians are doing what they caji to bring it under control. There must be med ication, prompt and efficacious medica tion. Let us have no fear that a rem edy or remedies will presently be found. The Messenger, without going into the details of the disorder, in other words confining ourself to medical nomenclature without making a full diagnosis, finds that all this trouble grows at least superficially out of the swarm of discontented foreign labor ing men who are brought here by cap italists or encouraged to come by the transportation companies to compete with native workers because the for mer will work for much less than the latter. We do not hesitate then to place the first share of responsibility on the shoulders of those who cheapen labor and degrade it as far as possible. But this does not mean that when a man sets fire to a bomb-fuse, and sev eral people get killed, he is to be let off and the officer of the law is to ar rest the owner of the mine or lumber yard who brought the murderer over as a cheap laborer. The law fixes on the man, and wisely, who commits the overt act. It is only public opinion which can pillory the prime originator of the bloody situation: ; In order to meet just such cases as these anarchic troubles the Messenger has urged the passage of laws forbidding the impor tation of all laborers on'contract from foreign countries. Perhaps these laws might go further and keep out all for eigners whatever who do not bring with them pecuniary means of sup port. Now we are aware that this was the essence of Know Nothing conten tion. But there is a difference in time and a difference in circumstances suf ficient to make a difference in doc trine. It was undemocratic thirty years ago to keep out the men who wished to come here to earn an honest living, and who were needed here. It is democratic to-day to' consider the welfare of fifty-odd millions of people already here. The people who have use for the labor of these bloody minded and brutal foreigners, the most degraded class of their respective countries aire a few rich contractors and owners. Against! 'their special! and selfish interests we place the wel fare of fifty millions of Americans. It will not do to tamper with this mat ter any further. There is no need for a standing army to overawe these -dynamiters. Neither is there cause for apprehension lest our Republican in stitutions receive a shock. The rem edy for disorder is at hand. Let the municipal authorities bo vigilant and firm, and then let our Congressional legislator s go as far as -the Constitu tion will warrant in providing that these disorders shall not recur, r OUR WASHINGTON LETTER The Protectionists Change Their Programme.' They Seek to Defeat the Tariff Reduction BillSome North Carolina Notes. Staff Correspondence of the Messenger. Washington, May 4. It is now said that Mr. Morrison did not concur in the recommendation of the little conference of prominent revenue re formers that wool be taken off the free list as prepared by the Ways and Means Committee. He says it would virtually whittle the tariff bill down to almost nothing. Mr. Morrison thinks that the bill will not be brought up for consideration in the House until the calendar is cleared of the three annual appropriation bills and the River and Harbor bill now upon the calendar. It is also learned to-day that the protectionist programme has been changed. It is now proposed to defeat the new tariff bill on the question of consideration. This indicates that the enemies of a reasonable tariff are afraid of discussion, and shows a de gree of cowardice in lugubrious con trast with the loud boasts of the mo nopolists hitherto. The true reason seems to be that the Republican pro tection leaders are not sure they can hold certain men who belong to dis tricts in the Northwest favorable to tariff reform. If no debate takes place it is hoped to get them under pressure to vote with the majority of their par ty and Mr. Randall's little contingent, but if a discussion is begun, it is be lieved these men will heed the voice of their constituents. It is also pretty certain that the protectionists will be worsted in very general debate on the tariff question, and this would operate against them in the fall elections, and as there is no President to elect this year, it will be harder to deceive Dem ocrats. Yesterday Mr. Hoar, from the Sen ate Committee on the Judiciary, re ported favorably the oint resolution providing for a constitutional amend ment extending the present President ial term till 30th April instead of the 4th of March, 1889, and providing that the term of the Fiftieth Congress be also extended to that date. It was placed on the calendar. The General Deficiency, Legislative, Sundry Civil, Naval and Fortification bills have not been reported from the House Committees in which they orig inate. The Military Academy, Con sular and Diplomatic and the Army appropriation bills are upon the House calendar. The River and Harbor bill is unfinished business. The Pension, District of-Columbia and Agricultural bills have passed the House and are before the Senate Committee on ap propriations. The Postoffice bill is before the Senate, and the Indian bill has been passed by both houses. The House on Monday agreed to meet on and after Monday next at 11 o'clock a. m. and sit until 5 p. m. This is usual in the closing months of the session. If the Congress would work full hours in the first two months there would be necessity for a six hours' session for a single day, all measures would receive due considera tion, and an adjournment might take place before the hottest weather. Con gressmen are like children they think only of the present moment. The Senate Committee on Finance to-day ordered a favorable report, without amendment, on the bill to tax the fractional parts of a gallon of whisky.. The committee also consid ered the bill for the retirement of the trade dollar, but reached no conclu sion. After debate this afternoon the House awarded the contested seat in Iowa to Gen. J. B. Weaver. It was not a party decision at all. I understand that in the examination of Mr. Editor Dana this afternoon by the Telephone Committee, the great Sun editor got tangled up and appeared badly as a witness. It was all over Mr. Garland, whom Dana has most foully treated. Col. Lamont says that there is not a particle of foundation for the report that Secretary Manning has resigned or that he has intended to resign. The same thing is stated by Acting; Secre tary Fairchild. i Hon. Nathan Goff, of West Vir ginia, is chairman, and Hon. Edward McPherson Secretary of the Republi can Congressional Committee. The New York Press Association meets here on the 12th and remains in session until the 14th. Ex-Speaker R. C. Winthrop, of Mas sachusetts, who is on a visit here, sat at Speaker Carlisle's left yesterday in the House of Representatives. It is pretended that new charges have been filed against Register Rose crans, but he doesn't 'regard them. Senator Harris moved at the last ex ecutive session to have the injunction of secrecy removed, but this was re jected. .Witness E. N. Hill, who is a demi-semi-ne wspaper-lawyer-and- what - not man, refuses to answer questions that criminate himself, in which he is not singular. Mr. Bayne asked if he had not gone to Indiana' to assist Mr. Dpr sey in the campaign of 1880, and had not sold the secrets of the Republican Campaign Committee to Mr. Barnum and Col. Wood for $750. This ques tion the witness refused to answer. He was then asked if he had not, while in Mr. Casey Young's office, taken part An the organization of the Pan Electric Telephone Company. This question he also refused to answer on the ground that it was an attempt to impeach his reputation. Mr. Bayne admitted that .he expected to show that the witness had violated his pro fessional and confidential relations with Mr. Young by selling information concerning the Pan Electric to the newspapers, but the witness again re fused to answer when asked to state the amount he had received for the information, taking the ground that the committee had no right to inquire into his private business. .:- Several dismissals have occurred in the Second Auditor's office. John Morris, of Himois; James P. Crites, and James C. Poynton, have been ap pointed to chiefships of division in the Treasury Department. . The Star, of this city, cruelly invites RevivalistsJSmall and Jones to come hither while the River and Harbor bill is under , consideration. " It assumes that the heavier the charge of unright eousness in the atmosphere,! the read ier they are to project into it the sweet ness and light of their doctrine. The Senate has confirmed a long list of customs and internal revenue col lectors, district attorneys, postmasters and other officials. As I have said something about the, subject matter of the following para graph, :t is perhaps proper that I should say in reprinting it that it is the first word of contradiction yet heard of the report published in the Messenger and other papers : "Why don't you publish the true story of the Michael Wallace case," said a friend of Gen. Rosecrans, the Register of the Treasury, to a Star re ferring to the case of the messenger whom, it was published, the Register declined to have in his office because he was au ex-Confederate. The Star reporter having indicated that his ears were open to receive the truth, the gentleman continued. ''The story as f ublished, gives a wiong impression, n the first place, it should be known that there are in the Register's office two gentlemen as chiefs of divisions who were in the Confederate service, and three ex Confederates on the list of messengers. When there was a vacancy in a messenger's place Gen. Rosecrans suggested to Assistant Sec retary Smith that he thought it would be good policy to appoint to the place an ex-Union Democratic soldier to the position. In this suggestion the Act ing Secretary coincided, but through an inadvertence Wallace, against whom there was no personal objection, was sent to the office. When the in advertence was discovered Wallace was not discharged, but transferred back to the watch force, from which he came." I stated that Wallace had been transferred because he was a Confederate soldier. The above is a full explanation, as far as appears, of the reasons for the transfer. A singular fact connected with the strike yesterday in this city 13 that in seeralof the trades the journeymen are still under pay, although refusing to work. The bosses were afraid of losing their good workmen, and agreed to pay them their wages during the "lockout," as the workmen call the suspension, to keep them from accept ing employment elsewhere. The Knights of Labor say that when the bosses take back their men they will all be required to pay the men for the time lost during the "lockout," and also the expenses borne by the unions on account of the "lockout." But "lockout" is ii queer word for the strikers to use. They refused to work longer except at eight hours to the day, and locked themselves out be cause of that refusal ; in other words, they struck for ten hours wages for eight hours work. To call their act a lockout by the employers is a mis nomer. Misrepresentation does not pay. Heretofore this has been shown in the case of the monopolist employ ers, who have not been able to deceive any part of -the public except the work ingmen themselves on the tariff ques tion. The city is quiet under strike. Not more than eight hundred men struck, the others having been ac corded the eight-hour day. It seems that there are only about 3,000 Knights of Labor in the city. They are san guine of a backdown by the contrac tors before Saturday night. But the latter talk with equal firmness. The petitions of a considerable num ber of colored citizens of North Caro lina were presented yesterday by Sen ator Vance, asking that $100 each be appropriated for the purpose of pay ing the expenses of such colored per sons as wish to emigrate to Liberia. In the House Mr. Skinner intro duced a bill for the erection of a light house at a shoal, near Cape, Hatteras. O'Hara introduced two pension bills. A favorable report from the Foreign Affairs Committee has been submitted by Gen. Cox on the bill to amend the law restricting Chinese immigration. The bill, in brief, provides that "no Chinese laborer shall have the right to emigrate to the United States for the term of ten years from and after its passage ; it provides for the means of identification by photographic repre sentations of any Chinaman who shall seek to go abroad ; it prescribes and limits the number of Chinese accord ing to tonnage that may be brought over in any one ship or vessel." The report states that the bill was care fully prepared and fairly reflects the unanimous wishes of the Representa tives in Congress from California and the intelligent thought of the great majority of the conservative people of the Pacific States. The existing laws, say the committee, have failed to ac complish the design intended by their enactors, and "the continued immi gration of Chinese laborers, despite restrictive legislation, has precipitated a conflict of race among the citizens of the Pacific slope -which has culmi nated in acts of violence, which, while they cannot for a moment be tolerated and are to be greatly deplored by all law-abiding citizens, yet cannot be ignored, but should be prevented when practicable by wholesome legislation." Hence the passage of the bill is rec ommended. ' The eminent Dr. C. J. O'Hagan, of Greenville, stopped here Sunday on his way to the medical convention at St. Louis, to be held on Wednesday. Col. A. B. Andrews and Mrs. An drews were at the Metropolitan Hotel yesterday. He is going West to exe cute the commission recently entrusted to him by the President, to examine fortv miles of the completed road on the Northern Pacific Railway. Fred H.
