T m w mmt 4 vk'Iirixi-V WASHINGTON LETTER. Why the Repablicaas Fear to Lef lilate 0a Certals Matters. Special Correspondence Courier. Washington, D. C, Octoler 20th, The coming Fall elections are im portant as showing the drift of pub. Iio opinion on political issues, ana especially how the voters of the states in which elections are held view the erratic course of the Repub lican Administration. If the Re publicans hold their own, it mnst be taken for granted that the majority of the voters of the United States are satisfied to continue the extortion of the trusts through the protective tariff and the continued high prices of the cost-of living. By endorsing the Republicans, the voters will sanc tion the program fhat the leaders of their party have agreed upon, or al lowing Congress to take no action other than to pass the appropriation bills and adjourn at the earnest day practicable. That would mean the transconti nental railroad have suffloient in fluence? with the Kepublicau leaders to prevent the building of the Pana ma or Nicaragua Canal; That no action will be taken upon treaties which President McKinlev so ar dently wished to see ratified to ward off the inevitable reform of the tariff which "he foresaw must come unless some relief from monopoly was granted; That the much-agitated labor legislation is again to be post poned, and that the promises made in the Republican platform are again to be broken; That no investigation of the frauds in the depaitments is co do unaeruKen; inai me nuauuitti legislation that has been declared so necessary to prevent a panic will not be attempted, and that Secretary Shaw can continue to loan the sur plus, without interest, to favored banks and continue to disobey the law for the protection of the United States bv receiving doubtful secur ity in pface of United States bonds, which the law plainly commands. Why is this Republican Administra tion afraid to legislate on these and other matters!' Being in league with ine trusts aua comoines, iney uare not legislate against them. They fear the people. If the Democrats show gains in the elections this Fall, it will indi cate that the voters are determined to turn out the Republicans, with their numerous scandals, and inaug urate the reform that is so necessary for the public welfare. "Equal rights to all and special privileges to none" is the Democratic slogan, and as the voters are beginning to see that trust prosperity means the pil ing np of millions in the pockets of the favored few and no fair share to the many, it is only reasonable to expact the 'voters will demand a change in political conditions. That the Republican leaders are fright ened to the point of desperation is plain enough or President Roosevelt would not nave authorized the speak ing members of his Cabinet to take the stump for Hanna in Ohio and to bolster up the rotten Lodge machine in Massachusetts, and to aid the dis reputable crew in Kentucky that call themselves the Republican party m that state.. The disagreement between Russia and Japan and the utter breakdown of the much-heralded "open door'' in Manchuria has alarmed the export merchant of the United States, and they have sounded a note of warning to President Roosevelt and the Re pullican leaders, that instead of aid ing the enlargement of our business in Asia, they have virtually closed the door that was at least partly open. That Russia will never with draw from Manchuria is not within the realm of probability; she owns the railroads and the banks there; the Chinese authorities are subservient to the Russian representatives; in a word, Manchuria is Russianized. The boast of the Administration that the treaty just concluded with China givs us two open ports in that conn try is, therefore, worthless, unless Russia opens their doors, for she has the key to both of them. Even if these two ports were open, are they of value? Mookden, one of the two, is on small river a hundred miles from the sea, accessable by a scow, and Niu Chwang, at the mouth of the stream, is occupied by the Rus sians. The other is village on tne coast, but there is no harbor, and so shoal is the offing that no man-of- war could approach within twenty miles. The merchant who tries to get any trade tnrongh these "open doors'' will not bless John Hay and the Republican party. 1 1 The Sugar Trust, having bought a controlling interest in its competitor, the Beet Sugar .Trust, the fight so long wiged between the Republican factions over Cuban reciprocity will S ratably cease. The reduction in utv on sugar for which Cuban reci procity provides, will give the xm bined trust an enormous Wlj, amounting to millions of dollars on all the raw sugar imported from Cuba, and, under the ordinary laws of trade, the price of refined sugar should decline at the same ratio, But the trust is so fully protected by the duty of about one and one-quarter cents a pound on refined sugar that tne ioreign article can nanny oe im ported here to compete with the trust, freight, tans amy ana other chtrges make the cost or. im porting foreign refined sugar about equal to the trnst price. If raw and refined sugar paid the same duty.the trnst would have to reduce its price accordingly and the consumers of the United States would buy their sugar at retail for at lenst one cent a pound lees than they now py for it. That is tne reason, the vemeorats in tne last Congress proposed and passed through the House of Reprcsenta- tives the amendment to the Cubun Reciprocity Bill abolishing the extra tans dntv on reiined sncrar. wnicn is technically called the discrimi lating duty. ' When the Cuban reciprocity measure comes up at tbn coming ses sion of Congress, the Democrats will offer 'he same amendments. How many Republicans will be found vot ing with them? The issue will be a plain one the trust or the people. CHARLES A. EDWARDS. The Prevslllnr Mode, I never gave much attention to la mode, not even when I was in the mood for such things; and now at this period of my earthly career 1 rarely ever take time to consider the eternal fitness or unfitness ef dress, if it conforms at all with any thing human not to say any thing of civili zation. But I hoye been letting my eyes rest rather longer than necessary of late upon the shirt waist of the ultra fashionable girl of the period. There is surely something wrong in the prevailing shirt waist or the way in which it is worn. It is certainly fortunate for us that it was "not reached at a single bound." It broke upon our sight slowly but surely. At first it was just n little fluffy in front, and tilled jut the least lit tle bit at the south, but lol It now breaks upon us in all of its smart ness. Falling in a great chevaux- defrise of goods in front, and pulled uuwn in ine dbuk, uuiu uio uiiinui-si little figure looks like some deform ed savage from some distant land. In fact the figure assumed a weird two sided affuir, short one Way and long the other. Then they have a way ot fluffing out the waist until it looks like the parachute of a balloon in full blast. It certainly would not be "Hogarth's line of beauty,'' nor y ones idea of what is becoming But let ns put on a waist in the old way with back and front stand' ing at equal angles, and we are laughed to scorn; and told that we are not in the fashion at all. N The up-to-duto Miss seems to revel in this horrid style, and you can see the school girl and the society woman look proudly down at her lowered sails, and if the waist is not quite low enough she cautiously manipulates it, and finally the effect for which she longs for will be at tained; and she will after "feeling for her belt at the back," go on re joicing, with such an exuberance of goods below her belt line in front, that all the rest of her up-to-date friends will envy her. I think it all right to conform our dress to the times in which we live, so long as that style is at all pleas ing to the sight; but the intuited balloon like effect of the present shirt waist is any thing but pretty accord ing to my two eyes. But then the world at large must and does approve of it; and so my like or dislike does not mutter, but i snail continue to wear mine in the old way, it is cheaper at any rate, and suiU me a great deal bettor. When the poet Keats said: "A thing of beauty is a joy forever," he did not have in his nimu me up-K-uauj mart wuit Truly, "AtXT AVNIK." Sanctlficationists Again. The so-called Sanctlficationists have made several attempts within the past year to secure a foothold in Lexington, but have met with poor encouragement; in fact the last time they were at the Wennonaii mills they were given orders to leave or take the consequences, and, they left. Last Sumlav a woman preach er of this sect made her appearance here and preached in the court house to a small crowd most of whom were present through curiosity. The Asheboro papers say a great number of persons in that section have gone crazy over the doctrine of sanctitication. Be that true or otherwise we have yet to hear of any good resulting by their presence in a community, and the crowd most cer tainly should not be allowed the use of the court house in which to dis pense their jargon. Davidson Dis patch. Four Escape (root the Penitentiary. Four escapes of convicts arc re ported from the convict camp, near Dunn, by the state penitentiary au thorities. Edgar Richardson, colored, sent from Wake to serve 3 years for 'arceny; served since January, 1903. He was a cook and went for wood and did not return. The other throe ran from the guard while at work and made their escape. The guard shot at them, but did not succeed in stopping them. Thev were Dolnh Vinson, a while man, from Rowan; sent here in No vember, 1901, for three years for secret assault. Jesse Knott, a negro from Rowan, serving fifteen years for murder in the second degree; sent here in No vember, 1899. Harry Franklin, a white man from Halifax; sent here in January, 1901, for five years for larceny. Sam Joaes m Critics. Critics never jump on a fellow who is doing nothing only to call him a vagabond, but the better and more efficient you work the more they will jump on yon. If they can't pick i flaw in your job, they will jump on your methods, etc. I suppose some prefer to be and do nothing so they can shun the shots and tongues of men and devus. RURAL SCHOOL LIBRARIES IN NORTH CAROLINA. Just now, when the princely dona tious of Mr. Andrew Carnegie have given a new stimulus to library building in American cities, it may k woli tn rum nnr ,,H n th "other half," the rural half, of our population, for although, until quite recently, no one thought of the public library as a possible rural institution, it has now made an au spicious entry into this new field. and is destined to play an impor tant part among the twentieth century forces, rural mail delivery, good roads, rural telephones, etc. that make for the uplift of Ameri can country life. The need of the rural library must be apparent to all who are familiar with country school methods. Read ing is the magic key to all our store houses of intellectual wealth; it Is the basis of all education. "The true nniversitr of these davs." savs Carlyle, "is a collection of books." And it is here, of all points in its curriculum, that the country school has fuilcd most grievously, it has not taught the children to read, to use books. Do not understand me to charge that the rural school Is literally and avowedly disloyal to the first of the immoital three R's, for it is not. But only in the nar rowest sense does it teach reading, reading as the mere pronunciation of words and the observance of puuetuation marks; the unlovely,' mechanical side of reading. The brighter side of reading the country pupil does not get; the city pupil does. Aided by the prescribed sup plemental literature, and guided by the teacher, the child of the towns man learns to find joy in reading, learns not only how to read, but actually learns to read, to use oooks. If you know the country school as ; . ? You knQW ., , . ,.' . . 0i,i career without learning auything of literature bevond the monotonous re- hcursul of dry text book matter. Cold, hard facts about the bound aries of foreign states, the dates of ancieut battles, the rules of the stock exchange, are regarded as mat ters of importance, but the teaetier does not see that it is better to foster a lovo of reading than to teach history or geography. Ur if he sees the duty, and longs to direct the child to the beauties of literature, he is shackled by the lack of facilities for such woik. Year after year, there is the same old drill in the same old readers, no classics are studied, and there is no supplement al reading to give the spice of va riety. It is inevitable that children rear ed in such schools come to regard reading not as a luxury but us a drudgery, and grow up potentially, if not in the strictest sense, illiterate. "I confess," says Tboreau, some where iu his "Walden," "that I do not make any broad distinction be tween the illlterutf ness of my towns man who cannot read at all and the illiteratencss of him who has learn ed only to real what is for children and feeblo intellecU." How much narrower, then, should be the dis tinction between the "illitcrateness of him who can not read at all" and the illitcrateness of him whose train ing has been such that he regards reading only as a task to be snunneu: People everywhtre are now begin ning to sec the mistake pointed out, ten years ago, by President Eliot in his essay "Wherein Popular Educa tion Has Failed." Wo have heretofore put too much confidence in the mere acquisition of the arts of reading and writing. After these arts are acquired, theie is much to 1 done to make them ef fective for the development of the child's intelligence. If his reason ing power is to be developed through reading, he must be guided to the right sort of reading. The school must teach not only how to read, but what to read, and it must de velop a taste for wholesale reading." It is to remedy just this defect that the rural school library has been intiodiiced into twenty-nine American states. And though widely varying plans have beeu adopted, in no other state, I dare say, has more rapid progress been made or greater results accomplish ed in proportion to capital expended than in rtorth Carolina, for tnis I may be pardoned for referring at some length to this North Carolina plan, which seems to be the one best adapted to states having a large rural population and a small revenue. The law as passed by the General Assembly of 1901 provides, in sub stance, That wherever the fneuds or pat rons of any rural public school con tribute $10 or mote for starting a library in connection with the to' ool, $10 of the district school fund shall also be set apart for the same pur pose, while another $1U win be given from the state appropriation, thus insuring at the outset at least $30 for each school library; iu many cases, of cou rse, t be patrou s con tn b nte more than the minimum sum, $10, needed to secure the $20 from other sources. The county board of education then names some compe tent person to manage the prospect ive library and buy the books for it, these to be chosen from a remark ably well selected list of standard works recently prepared by a com mittee of distinguished educators. The same committee, by the way, obtained competitive bids from prominent publishing houses, thus forcing prices to strikingly low figures, even for classics. The smallest libraries have seventy-five and eighty neat and substantially bound volumes. By the earnest efforts of the North Carolina Literary and Historical As sociation, an appropriation of five thousand dollars was obtained tor the puymcnt of the state's part on the experimental plan just outlined, , and in September, 1901, the upprop nation became available, and the j".' n "" enuui library was established. The entire sum would huve been speedily ex hausted by the more progressive sections had not the legislature pro vided that state aid should be avail able for not more than six school districts in any one of the ninety seven counties. Within five months, a thiri of the counties reached this limit, and applications from other communities within their borders had to be rejected. Before the Ueneral Assembly of 1903 met, in January, four hundred and thirty one of a possible five hundred librar ies had been helped. In the face of such success there was nothing for the legislature W do but make au appropriation of five thousand dol lars more for the ensuing two years, while twenty-five hundred dollars was added to maintain and enlarge the libraries already established, the same Carnegie like principle of co operation to be observed: each gift from the state to be duplicated by an appropriation from the school fund, and again duplicated by private subscription. Already many applications for uid from the new appropriation have been received, and Superintendent Joyner confidently predicts that be fore the next legislature meets North Carolina will have one thousand state aide rural school libraries. Then there are others, established entirely by private gifts. In one county (Durham) adjoining that in which the writer lives, a wealthy citizen continued the good work be gun by the state. He offered to du plicate amounts raised after the state aid limit had beeu reached, and now every one of the forty white schools in the county has a library. Une other fact deserves mention. Not only does tho rural school library develop the reading habit, it develops it along right lines. Since, us Emerson says, "the ances tor of every action is a thought," how important it is that the litera ture that is to provoke thought be wholesome and well balanced! In our city libraries, fiction, haf much too large a place, many wo- ten and oung people read nothing else. Jut while these rural libraries con tain a few novels the chief efforts is to develop a proper appreciation of choice works of science, travel, nature study, poetry, history, biogra phy and mythology. Even if the child formed the "reading habit" outside the school, it would still be worth while for the state to have these libraries for the solo purpose of turning his new found love of literature into right channels ot truth and beauty. Nor have the bovs and girls been the only beneficiaries of the new movement. It has opened up a new world for many of tho parents, and has done incalculable good in con tinuing the education of persons too old or too poor to longer attend school. The superintendent of schools for Durham county says that the books are used almost us much by the parents us by the child ren themselves, and the Pitt county superintendent savs that the libraries have caused hitherto indif ferent parents to become deeply interested in reading and in the edu cation of their children. "The pe culiar value of the school library," as the New lork Evening Tost rightly observes, "lies in the fact that it educates the younger genera tion as well as the older. All in all, the North Carolina plan has proved a strikingly suc cessful innovation, and we are moved to wonder that our educational lead ers did not long ago perceive the value of rural library work, or, real izing it, did not think of the ease with which it may bo conducted in connection with the public school. We are not far from the time when no house where children meet for study, whether in town or country, will Ik- regarded as even tolerably equipped without a small collection of the liest books.

A colored man who worked for n white man who believed in faith cure, Christian Science, or whatever it is culled, was an hour or so late reporting to work one morning. His employer, upon inquiry, was told that he was detained at home on ac count of the illness of his brother. The Christian Scientist ridiculed the idea of his brother's illness and said: Henry, your brother is not sick. He inst thinks he is sick. If he will nse his mind, exercise his will-power decide that he is not going to be sick, and will have faith m bod, he will get right up, and you won t have to use any medicine." This was all new and strange doc trine to Henry, but he did not think it wise to get into any kind of argu ment with his boss, so be scratched his head and said nothing. The third day after this conveisa tion Henry remained away from work the entire day. When he re ported for work the next morning his emnlover said: "Well, Henry, how is your brother today? Does be still think be is sick.' The colored man replied: "No. sin we buried him yesterday. I reckon br this time he thinks he's dead." j Greenville Reflector. HOME TRIED RECEIPTS. Culinary Hints.
