The work of reformation contin

resignation! of three useless exami-
'nerjs in the Department of Justice
and Secretary Tilas has notified sev

that their! services wjiYiot be needed
ville as tb.9re are regular barracks.
ITags Head and Beaufort are fine
camping grounds. Thes,e could be
selected if the Encampment is to be
by regiments.
But if the 20 companies are all to
go into camp together then some
cc ntral place should be selected, say
Raleigh.
Tha Colonels and Captains should
without delay communicate their
opinions to General Jones. We have
little doubt that he will readily, do
as the majority think best.

The general aid vantages to the peo

institution I equire no enumera
tion, but the special advantages to
r- the town and; ! county where this
school mav bel located ' are so consid-
erable that?ev4ry town should make

When the President sent to the Sen
ate the name of Mixleb for Internal
Revenue commissioner, a 'great hue
and cry was made that the appoint
ment was made because he was back
ed by the protection Democrats head
ed by Randall. This the gossips said
was necessarily true because Mobeis
son, Cablile, and other revenue re
formers exerted their influence in
favor of Gen. Thompson of Kentucky.
Such assertions may classed as utter
nonsense. The tariff had nothing to
do with tht appointment. ThePres
ident recognized the a manifest im
propriety of appointing a man coi-
priiftsipner wboJtruly qr not was said

The probability is that had it not
been "for this objection Thompson
would have been appointed.
Nothing yet has transpired to shake
our firm conviction that President
Clbvelanb is a thorough going tariff
reformer. On this he will how ver
be as' he has ever been on other ques
tions slow,deliberate but nevertheless
positive.
It is significant that these discover
lies of the Presidents tai iff views
are made exclusively by protection

We have no love for Gen. Grant.
As President we disliked him. As
General he did, however, show a spir
it of moderation and consideration
towards his conquered adversaries
that entitles him to the respect and
esteem of every Southerner. In his
tory Gen. Grant will be regarded, as
he is now by the Northern people,
the savior of the Union. We, no mat-'
ter how unwillingly, are a part of
this Union. It is not what is Gen.
Grant's private income but it is a
nations gratitude. Does our corres

succeeded Gen. Lee would not have

Cleveland, is "downing" the politi
cians as it is popularly phrase!. Those
whom States and delegations have
favored President Cleveland has ig
nored. So far his substitutions h ave
been most excellent.
Pearson, Postmaster of New York,
a republican, is we are told by Cleve
land's organ the fPorld, to be re
tained. Civil service is a good thing
in its way, but Pearson in no wise
comes under the civil service law.
We would in no way dictate to Mr.
Cleveland whom he should appoint,
but we would, and every democratic
paper likewise, should emphatically
say that he has no right to appoint
to omce republicans.
So far as the editor of the South
erner and those connected with the
paper are concerned, not one request
will be made for an appointment and
therofore our strictures (if they be
such) are be taken as coming from no
interested source. The Southerner
will at all time insist that a democrat
should appoint democrats to office.
Of course the prefence 6hould given
to party workers, but bo long as the
appointees are democrats, a discreet
silence will if possible be preserved.
Maj. Finger's. Letter.
I trust that it will not (be consider
ed improper for me, ihrough the
newspaper press, one of the i;reat ed
ucators of the people, t explain the
modifications of the public school
law, enacted by the recent general
assembly. I am moved to fo so be
cause of the numerous enquiries rel
ative to the matter, knowing as I do
that it will necesBariily be some weeks
before it wili be possible or the law
to be published and sent Out as re
quired by law. ?
The prominent chaDges from the
old law are indicased by tae follow
ing provisions: ;
It On the first Monday in Jane
next, and every twj years thereafter,
the justices of the peace and. the
county commissioners at their joint
meeting are required to tlect three
residents of their county who
shall be. a county board of edu
cation. Their ;duties will be the
general supervision of the school
matters of their county mtinly such
as are now performed by the county
commissers .They are to meet four
times a year, with a compensation of I
two dollars per diy and mileage.
2. The county superintendent is
to be secretary of the board of edu
cation. His pay is two or three dol
lars per day, as the board, may deter
mined, for the days that he is actaul
ly engaged, and he is under the di
rection and supervision of the board
He will, in addition to the ordinary
duties of superintendent perform the
duties now required by the register
of deeds in school matters.' A good
board will give him pay and work
with the limits f the law. according
to his efficiency.
3. The county board of education
will hereafter not be required to make
a per capita apportionment of funds
among the sevei al school districts of
t!e county as heretofore requirwd.
The laws requires that two thirds of
th money be apportioned on a per
Capita basis, aud the remaining on -tbird
is to be apportioned "in suh
manner as to equalize school faei!iti-8
to all the districts of the county, as
far as u.ay ba practicable and just to
all concerned, without discrimination
in favor of or to the prejudice of eith
race. If the board find it d sirable
so to do, they may cantrol prices to
bepaid teachers, and they are pru
dently to require comfortable school
houses to be provided.
These provisions indicate the prin
cipal chauges in the law all others
are minor ch nges, made necessary
to make the system conform to these
provisions.
As I understand it, the Assembly
intended to seperate school affiir
from other county business, and put
them in thehan.is of persons special
ly appoinied with a vie to their fi--ness
to manage them ju liciously
and economically, giving them large
discretion, and evidently taking into
consideration thefact that the State
is exceedingly d.ven-ified in
its interests and population, and on
this account demand- larg'-r local
discretion th,4n has hereioiore ob
tained. This local discretion extendi also
to the county superintendence.
While it is a' most axiomatic truth
that there cm be no good system of
public education without the services
?lff yoma'ui out '(luuiiMes arc
Blow to realize the fact Such coun
ties are allowed, uader tha late L-g
i slat ion, to eh-ot an inferior mm feu
perintendent, strict the scope of
his labors and jog along, being con
tinual'y distant iu the education il
race by their more progressive nrigh
bors. A successful business mm
never iuyests money in au enterprise,
without eirher superintending it him .
self, cr employing a competent per
son to superintend it for him This
principal lpplies to school business
with double foioe. A fh.rt term of
good schooling is worth more thau a
longer one of inferiority; time is saved
in proportion to the efficiency of the
teacher in a marked dt-gre.
The systsm is not more expensive
than the old system. The special
board of education will not cost
much, if any, more than was the cost
of the county . commissioners as
ooards of education, and the fees
heretofore paid to registrars of deeds
will be eliminated.
Seeing that the constution of the
State requires a system of public ed
ucation, may I not ask the justices of
the pece, the bounty commissioners
and people to assist me in executing
the system given us by the Assembly
under their constitutional require
ments, to the end that we may
provide at least a rudimentary edu
cation for all the children .f the
State and to the end that what mqn
ey we do pay for education rrury be
judicio siv used. Slay J not hope
thai ,v ' t nd sui'ahle
men will be foun I in every county
who will consent to act as members
of the board of educaJtioD, which is
the foundation of the.syt-tem.
