Accord ing to the last census, one voter in every five in our land cannot write his own name; one in every six cannot read his ballot. That these should vote lor the saloon and its kindred degradations. naturally follows Therefore, the subjoined resolution. passed by the National W. C. T. -U , at their late convention in Minneapolis, Minn., was directly in the teoiperance work, i. e. : Whereas. The Scientific Temper ance Education of the youth and child ren of this country, through the schools, cannot be ensured without an establish ed system of free public instruction, and such instruction in many portions of our country is Duet and inadequate or wholly lacking, for want of means of support, therelore; Hesolved, That we approve what is known as tbe school bill now pending in Congress, providing for aid from the National Treasury, for public instruc tion, to.be disbursed on the basis of illiter acy, and we will heartily favor its pass age." Xhe next creat step, essential to the work of the department and the ultimate triumph of the temperance cause and the preservation of our institutions, is the passage, by Congress, of this measure. It has passed the Senate and is now before the House. The voice of the sovereign people, in petitions gathered up by our W. C. T.

'We gather the folio wiug-items from the Murphy Bulletin': ' -' - . There is not a vacant house in Murohr and it wonld pay some one to erect a no ruber of cottages. The long-looked-for Marietta & North Georgia Railroad is now completed and running daily trains to the North Caro lina State Line, within thirteen miles of tnis place, and sui-grading is being done on towards Murphy. Perhaps no point between Charles ton and Mnrphs possesses better advantages for building a town than Marble located, as it is, in the center of the Vallv river valley, nine miles east of Mnmhv. and directly on the surrey of the WNCR K. lhe American Marble Comnanv. of Boston, Mass., own a quarry of marble at that point, and will work the same just as soon as the railroad reaches it. n view of these facts Mr A. B. Hmith has already built a store house and is now erecting a nice dwelling and ont bnildings. in speaking oi the needs of Murnhv. it is obvious that a large hotel is worse needed than anything else. The magni ficent scenery around the town is bound to make it one of the most popular of ooumern resorts, ana tne coming sum mer will no doubt bring manv visitors. ho we hope, can be entertained comfort ably with our limited accommodations. But what we want is a hotel with sever al hundred rooms, that all who would come, might find ample accommoda tions. Cherokee county wants a forty thous and dollar court house, and park to cor respond, at Murphy. W e are of the opinion that good apple orchards in Western North Carolina or North Georgia, convenient tcy railroads. is worth more and is a better investment than orange groves in Florida. This may sound extravagant to our Florida friends, bat we think the day is. not far distant when the truth of this assertion will be realized.
