This is the kind of man the Republicans ask the people to make Superinten dent of Public Instruction. Mr. Long, the Republican nominee for this office, has never denied that he was for several years at the head of a mixed school in Ohio—a scbool where white and black children are taught together.

An editorial which appeared in this paper on the fourth of Septem ber, referring to Dr. D. A. Long, the nominee of the Republican par ty for State Superintendent of Schools, in his connection of mixed schools has brought a reply from Dr. liong which is published in an- . other column. Dr. Long makes no denial of the fact that he was at tha bead of a college in which uegroes were taught, but rebels at the idea that this should be confounded with “a little school with two or three teachers, and a little handful of negro and white girls and boys,” as tie expresses it. The reply of Dr. Long states that he does not favor social equality, and pleads justification of his cause by the examples he cites. He draws some fine distinctions in the matter with regard to a college and school, the number of negroes who attended and the matter of various parties .going as students to colleges to which negroes may be admitted. But Dr. Long fails in getting at the marrow of the matter. * Accord ing to his own statement, for 16 jears, he was at the head of a school college if you prefer, where negroes were admitted, together with not jtloue white boys, but white girls «lso. He was at the head of that institution, and must, if he attended to his duties, have had an oversight of the education of these negroes. That but one “full blooded” negi-o graduated matters not, perhaps there were others who entered and failed to graduate. It is a case not on all fours with that of men attend ing great universities where the negro is admitted, and even if it were that is not the case that is being cpnsidered. Nowhere in the article was it said that D. A. Long sought the Republi can nomination, but it was stated that he “seeks to be put at the head of the State Schools,” and if he ac cepts, as it is iudged he has, the nomination, he is certainly seeking to be *‘put at the head of the , State schoois.” Dr. Long omits to say a word con cerning his opposition to the amend ment, and his work against it in the campaign of 1900. He sought to keep the franchise for the illiterate negro, and lie is the nominee of a party with an unclean record of having placed negro men on the school committees with the power to visit and inspect public schools taught bv white men, ho matter how much it may now prate of being “clean.” Is the Dr. D. A. Long, president of Antioch College, different ‘from the Dr. D. A. Long, nominee of the Republican party! Because Anti och College is a close corporation, does not enter into the question nor does it enter into the question that it IS situated in Ohio. If Dr. Long was willing to teach here for sixteen years, would he be willing to teach here under similar conditions, if such could exist, for sixteen years? Is there a different code for him in North Carolina and in Ohio, or ought he not be the same man at ail times and under all circumstances. A mere quibble as to to the size of a school—for colleges are schools— or to close corporations, or to the number of students, oi what young men went to Northern schools, is not a depjal of the main facts. In these w have been correct and drew the inference which we felt should be drawn. The position of Dr. Long has been stated, and the public has a right to judge the case, but the past conduct of the party associates of Dr. Long is sufficient to make them study it well. In this connection the Wilmington Messenger of September 7th says: “Do the people of North Carolina vrant at the head of their public school system a man who has giyen would he dare to openly advocate it, but just think of having a man in charge of the education of the white DIRECTORY.

Yet the Republican party puts up for the head of our school system a man who advocates it. If all those ne groes who are entitled to vote would cast their ballots against this man at the November election it would go a long way toward reconciling those white people who now oppose it. to taxing themselves for educa tion of the negro children. It would do the further good of showing the white people that the negroes have confidence in them and look to them for fair and just treatment.”—News and Observer. NOTICE. Sale of Personal Property.

One of those unnaturally bright children who are always getting people into trouble was at a prayer meeting the other evening, with his mother, when he asked aloud: Ma, say ma—who was Dinah Mooie ?” “Hu u-sh,” whispered his mother, It’s a hymn.” “No, it ain’t, ma,” continued the hopeful, “it’s a woman’s name, who’s say going home to Dinah Moore !” Willie,” said the mother in a ghastly voice, “you’re disturbing tue meeting. it means going to Heaven to die no more.” Dine no more! Oh, ma; don’t they eat anything there ?” His mother explained as well as she could, and Willie sat still for half a minute, his bright eyes roving about the church. Then he asked in a shrill whisper: “Ma, is God out of town ?” *No-o, no-no,” answered the dis tracted woman faintly. Then what’s Mr. Kelly running this meeting for?” asked the sweet child. The choir sung him down, but the meeting closed with a moment of silent prayer and his gentle voice was distinctly heard saying: “Old Mrs. Jones’ switch don’t match her hair like yours does. Ma!” A Boy’s Wild Ride For Life. With family around expecting him to die, and a son riding for life, 18 miles, to get Dr. King’s New Discov ery for Consumption, Coughs and Colds, W. H.

Governor Aycock, after a brief rest in Raleigh, went to Lexington, where he delivered an address on Education last Saturday. It is a great and laudable work in which he, Dr. Mclver, Dr. Kilgo «ind the other able educators are engaged. The opening of the fall term of the leading educational institutions of our State is gratifyingly sucessful. The State formal and Industrial at Greensboro, the A. & M- at Raleigh, Trinity at Durham, Peace in Ral eigh and others report a large atten dance and exceedingly bright pros pects for the scholastic year. The State Farmers’ Association of North Carolina held' an important semi-annual meetinp- in this city, the most noted feature being a com prehensive report from the Secretary Mr. B. Barker, and the the adoption ol resolutions offered bythe executive committee endorsing the practice of establishing neigbborhotKl cotton seed oil mills and urging the farmers of the State to co-operate along oth er lines,such as the buying of ma chinery, supplies etc., and selling of products.* LLEWXAM.

A Washington special says that the sum of gold now in the United States treasury exceeds that of any previous time in the history of the country, and with one possible ex ception it exceeds that of any country at au7 time in the history of the world. The single reported excep tion is that of Russia, about eight years ago, when that country was preparing to resume gold payments^' At that time Rusia is said to have had in its trejisnry $598,000,000 in gold. Last Saturday the vaults of the United States treasury contained $573,936,194, an increase since July 1st, 1901, of $79,087 897. This stock of gold is now being added at the rate of from $200,000 to $3{.’0,000 a day, with no immediate prospect of a cessation in the rate of deposits. A Parson’s Noble Act. “I want all tha world to know,’ writes Rev. J. C. Budlcng, uf Asha way, R. I., “what a thoroughly good' and reliable medicine I found in Electric Bitters.
