The Death Angel's Visit.
On Saturday, Sept. 3, 1910, the 1
death angel visited the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Parnell and
took from them their darling baby
Edward.
He was born Feb. 13th, 1908. He
did not stay with us but a short
while but it was a happy stay.
Little Edward was not sick but
a short while and death was not ex
pected. 'Tis hard to say good-by to

Morehead and Local Issues.
Mr. Morehead. the mau who thinks
he thinks he is chairman ot the re
publican state executive committee
and Mr. Grissom, who is Mr. More
head's secretary have recently let
themselves be interviewed on the
subject of the Maine election. Most
republicans exhibit symptoms of the
Jim-jams when the Maine election is
mentioned and at once begin to shy.
Mr. Morehead and his private secre
tary, however, each tackle the ques
tion in their own several ways and
both of them make a mess of .lt. We
don't know whether It was Jim-Jams
In their case or what, but any way
Mr. Grissom could see nothing but
"licker" in It. Mr. Grissom says
"licker" was the cause of it all and
leaves the inference that North
Carolina republicans ere all right on
the liquor question. From which It
may be noted that Mr. Grissom be
lieves that the local self-government
plank In the republican platform is.
an announecment in favor of more
"licker." That is a matter, howev
er, in which republicans themselves
disagree. And even the same re
publican will disagree with himself.
It depends on where lie i3 talking as
to how he interprets ilie platform.
W'e don't know whether Mr. More
head holds the same views about the
local self-government plank as his
secretary or not, but we do know
that they do not in regard to the
Maine election. Mr. Morehead says
the tariff did it. And when Mr. More
head said that he spoke an eternal
truth. In all those brilliant speech
es which he didn't make in Congress
during those two years he has been
cementing his friendship with Ma
rion Butler, he never said a truer
thing than that. And Mr. ~ More
head might have added that this
same tariff is going to "do"' the re
publicans all over this country this
fall. The republicans have well-nigh
"done" the country. But the people
have at last gotten tired of republi
canism and the beginning of better
things is in sight.
Mr. Morehead, however, did bring
in the word "local." They can't get
away from that little word. But the
people remember the kind of local
government the republicans gave us
ten years ago and they want nothing
of a local nature from them or from
them locally. But the tariff. Mr.
Morehead says, 's a locla issue, and
that's why Maine went Democratic.
Local conditions there, he says, are
such that the people no longer want a
high tariff. Same here, too, Mr.
Morehead, and all over the country
as well. This local condition is so
wide-spread that it has become a
general condition. But to return to
Maine, and for once Mr. Morehead
is not local. He goes all the way
to Maine to find a "local" example.
When General Hancock, in his
letter of acceptance suggested that
the tariff was a local question it was
treated by republicans as the great
est joke of the campaign. Mr. More
head was then too young and too
good a democrat to appreciate this
joke; for we find him to-day gravely
announcing the same dotcrine. If
the republicans were right in their
contentions then, that they gave the
coun*ry a tariff policy national and
not local in Its application. It is sin
gular that the south, which Mr. More
head contends is languishing for
more protection, did not prosper by
it. If it Is a really local question, as
Mr. Morehead contends, It is singu
lar that New England, the chief bene
ficiary, has got too much of a good
thing. While admitting that his
party in Maine had become so bad
that the people could not endure It
longer, and broke away from the tra
ditions of a generation, he failed to
point out any similar condition in
North Carolina to justify the peop'e
in rising up against the dominant
party here. Indeed, he is unfortu
nate in his attempt at a comparison
between Maine and North Carolina.
If the Democrats ever were bad in
Maine, certainly sufficient time has
elapsed for It to be forgotten?not so
in North Carolina; for men younger
than Mr. Morehead can remember,
nay, cannot forget, the kind of gov
nment given to this state by his
party. And what Is still more to the
point, the same mighty hand guided
' his party ki North Carolina then that
steered Mr. Morehead safely into the
: chairmanship, and which every man
knows continues, and will continue.
' to gu'de Mr. ''orehead and his party
| In every step they take.
But in regard to our campaign In
I North Carolina; that is the one thing
t that looks good to us, and we re
gret that Mr. Morehead did not fa
| vor us with his views about some
i other local luterest. Doubtless he
has been carried up Into a high mouc*
tain. Our people are satisfied with
one issue given us by Mr. Morehead;
the issue of "Butler Come Back."
The folks are as eager for the cause
as If a real fox race was on sure
enough. There will be no trouble
this year about the people turning
out to hear our speakers?the trou
ble is our speakers and our democrat
ic literature are in such demand
that Mr. Eller is unable to supply
the demand. Our party has been
wanting a little exercise ever since
1900 and on this decennial year they
are having a good time with the
same old crowd they licked then.
But whatever the question in
Maine Mr. Morehead Bhould remem
bern ay he will not be allowed to
forget that there is a local question
in North Carolina and that is Butler
Ism. The people of this state have
not yet tailcn so low that they will
take Marlon Butier back Into their
confidence. It is a local i??v? and a
local issue that means the bigger?
democratic majority since Butler was
driven from the state by an outraged
public sentiment ten years ago.?

What Is the Matter With Our High
Schools?
Instead of our high schools serv
ing uniformly to make our boys and
girls better citizens, more cultured
men and women, more efficient work
ers and happier human beings, the
results have often been quite (he op
posite, says Benjamin C. Gruenberg,
in "Success Magazine." We find
countless high school graduates who
turn their talents against their city
or State; who think they know it
all and make no intellectual progress
whatever; who shun work and ser
vice and despise the workers of the
world; who break their hearts in
the successful pursuit of things not
worth while, or in vain efforts after
a life to which they are in no way
adapted.
To be sure, there are undesirable
citizens, lazy and dishonest and un
happy men and women among those
who have had but very little educa
tion. But the point is that the
high schools have failed in too many
cases to do what was expected of
them. , (
