THE PASSING OF TilE HOG PEN.
We learn that the Gannon
Manufacturing Company, includ
ing ibhe Cabarrus mills, will after
January 15, 1900 inaugurate
a regulation that no hog pens
will be allowed on the premises
of their tenement houses.
The hog pen problem has ex
ercised the minds of the town
fathens of many of our cities and
in some we believe the pens are
entirely excluded. In our manu
facturing communities, premises
are necessarily very contracted
and it is not surprising that the
management vf our great indus
trial enterprises who from hu
manitarian as well as financial
interest must be the guardians
of health and social harmony,
should find it necessary to move
in this direction before the city
authorities do.
While a few persons may feel
a degree of privation in not be
ing allowed their long accus
tomed privilege of raising a crop
of pork, we doubt not a large
niaj or ity will be freed fro m the
slcnch and squealing from their
neighbors pig s ies.
The question of swills comes
next into consideration. But
the waste from thrifty house
wifery and really expert cookery
does not contemplate much of
value in the swills and what
there is is not bad on a little
cultivated corner, or may soon
fiid a way of heihg gathered up
and hauled to an oiit-bf theway
pig pen, the receiver returning
some compensatory favor. The
time is probably not far distant
when the hog pen must go from
all thickly settled communities..
THE ANTPS TUG HARD.
Capt. J B Eaves, in that
champion .of -the xtntkatuen Anient 1
journals, the Ashevule Gazette,
gets' to he; e$ Jj
pushes so heavily up hUl. What
a strain it is to find some excuse
to oppose the amendments. He
seems to see in a vision a whole
trqppfhitg.mener
that will be unable to vote be
cause .they.canlt xead. .and -they
will fee blaming their fathers for
voting forjthe amendments and
instead jca oing aiiRtaiAajrrx

a dangerous element. Whjle all
this is goingneSees lnTHaiiV
fax, for instance, the negro am
bitiously meeting thelrequire-
ments of the v law and polling
a majority vote.
According to Capt. Eaves,
white men must be made of very
poor stuff and the negroes, in' the
east-of ' the very kind -of material
f orVgoofcitUens.
( it seems erynqi lil?e white
parents i who will nbf senaj tHeir
children to our free school
exiough' to read and" Write are
very destitute of parental 'ambi
tion and would most likely rear
sons not very desirable 'r for
voters, and if a - boy" be an off
shoot with m6re;...than;i inherited .
nobility the world can hardly
keep him from getting enough
education to vote.
There will be" hard tugging to
find yalid( obj ections to the
amendments. Tney are a gooa
long step in the right .direction.
They are perfectly justifiable for
eliminating un intelligent , voting
and are .one of , the; best stim
ulants to intelligent citizenship.
THE TROUBLESJOF A TEACHER.
Tlie .trial of Prof. Coon before
the graded schpolhoard of Salis
bury: is so characleristic that
were it not a real trouble one,
touched with : a feeling from
similar experiences could' smile:
This particular case' Only sur
passed in magnitude not hr es
sence the very common ' experi
ence where people are not loyal
to those in authority and are
quick to set themselves up as
judges of matters about which
they know less than-those they
would condemn How. quick too
are people not noted,, for their
piety and their' genrdl . upright
ness to catch on toc sbmetliing
heterodox in those whose piety
monitor against error.
It would seem that when lead
ing spirits wih their . energies
and their wealth provide schools
in which the children of the less
fortunate share equal chances of
an education, it would be iac:
cepted gladly. It :is surprising
too that any are so igaoraat as
to not know wnen you try to help
and benefit them.' But thus it is
and it is one of the crosses of
teaching. "H ' ?" 7 v : " V -"

are generally ' shelves pretty
soon by the proper authorities.

that the management of our

who Joiow beoJj along their time.
