SYNOD WILL DSTERiIIjSE.
We notice that the Salisbury
correspendent of the Raleigh
Post says the board of trustees
of North Carolina College will
meet today (the 15th) and de
termine what placo will get the
college. The . committee ap
pointed by the Synod to invite
and receive these bids fixed this
as the day for bids to be placed
in their hands to be carried up to
Synod next May, unless a cal'e
meeting of Synod convene and
consul er the bids at an earlier day.
We hope, too, that committee
will extend the time, as we think
there are hardly any bids entirely
ready yet: ' . ; - ,
That correspondent announces
that Salisbury has an $8,000 site
and some $12,000 secured. -
HERE HAD " HIM; HERE LOST HIM.
The Americans evidently were
getting close to Aguinaldo when
they took Tarlac and captured
the fleeing Secretary, the gov
ernment was records, the Inde
pendencia printing press etc. but
they are completely staggered to
locate Aguinaldo and his govern
ment base. We have seen the
hare chased so closely that it
world squat in the grass and be
passed over by the hound, there
by gaining a fresh start.
The Greensboro correspon
dent to the Raleigh Post of the
14th, says: . :

It is wonderful how clearly
the results of the late elections
can be read to indicate just what
tjie jeadprj wants themito do. To
tio wisa RepuhJicans tey mean
H ?pubhcan - success next 'year;
and to knowing Democrats they .
mean 16 to 1 Chicago platform ;
triumph. It's the very province
of happiness to the predictors.
To the writer there is not much
meaning in it save' that Mr. Mc:
kinley and Mr. I Bryan will be the
party- leaders again,: with little
light thrown on the path - of
either by recent events.
The executive committee of
the Republican party will meet
on the 15th of December to fix
upon a time and place to renomi
nate McKinlev and attend ' to
some other little routine matters.
We suppose the Democratic
party will not be in any great
hurry to attend to the little
formality of nominating Bryan
and readopting the : Chicago
platform. The conventions are
necessary as' matters of form
without emphasis so far as the
heads of the ticket is concerned.
Now Russia and Japan are on
the verge of war about some ter
ritory about Corea held, by the
Japanese nation and' wanted by
by the Russians. It's all right
to stand for principle, but it
would seem an enormous under
taking for Japan to jump into a
war with such a power as that of
Russia., In such instances a sys
tem of international , arbitration
seems greatly needed. ,
Sharpers managed to pick up
a box containing. $30,000 worth

being near, "then attracting the
owner's attention away and next
being absent from the owner but
present with the box. It was a
dazzling success.

We were in error yesterday
when we said Aguinaldo's ; son
was captured. ; It is. Aguinaldo's

the son of the secretory but - we

Fault Finding and Criticising. .
' Criticising : .means' .Judging
fairly. The original Greek word
to judge means, to 'sift. . One,
therefpre, who is .incapable,
from ignorance, or . ; pre j udice, of.
sifting every matter from every
point of view, cannot bo called a
critic. Whenever, from some in
terested motives or; from other,
causes, lie shows bias, - he must
not be set down as a critic. Men
have attempted to write down a
play because they- did, not like,
the author pf it. A'bpok has,
been abused because pther books
by the same author have . won a
place which was denied the pro
ductions of the critic., War has
been made on ministers, lawyers
and doctors, because their, views
did not harmonize with the ad
vice the critic had to give, but,
somehow, was not accepted.
Fault finding can become actu
ally a disease. The disappointed,
those of a vinegar temper, the
mentally " dyspeptic, indulge
themselves to such an- extent
that a calm, dispassionate, not
to say tender, judgment of men
and things becomes an impossi
bility. Those who know such
people suspect something wrong
whenever, the fault finder says
something good. It was sakLof
one of old: V 'His word were
smoothstlButSSr, -but the war
was in his Heart." A critic is a
necessary and." useful factor in
public, and private life. v A fault
finder is one who spoils . the
sweetness of things. . He is : an
irritant; his influence is perni-
cious. xie is w oe avoiaea.-
