BERNARD. WILMINGTON, N. C. f - ' " "Feidat EvEnraro, Jan. 16, 1885, EVENING EDITION. A QUESTION OF EXPBDIENCT. Is it. expedient and wise to pass an educational bill that gives the Fede , ral Gpyernment charge of the public schools in the States? It is practical ly this, and in the end, if the work i is once begun, there will be - no pre tense that the States have any other position towards the Paternal Gov- - eminent than that of recipients and almoners. Educate the j people through the years to lean upon the Federal Government for help, and it .will be eertain that thvs habituated, they will demand as their right that henceforth the said Federal Govern ment shall control the schools and sustain the schools just, as it controls the mail service or any Paternal in stitution. - ' We hold that it is inexpedient and unwise for the Government to run the public schools because it has a decided HemoraZizing tendency. It is impossible to make the people de pendent upon Federal bounty with out lowering their tone, their self-respect, their self-reliance, their desire to do good, their high sense of duty. Men are blind who cannot see thisi They can have neither seen with their eyes nor heard with their ears nor rea the fruitful pages of history if they deny it. '. If is not expedient to pass the; Blair bill or any other like it because it destroys local self-government to a very great extent, the most precious - and indispensable muniment, of free-' dom. Allow the States to depend upon Paternal Government forboun-l ties with which to; run the' public schools and as inevitably as the tides flow and ebb will the sacred rights of freemen in a free State be abridged, , : and their domestic affairs, will be come subject to the surveillance and , control of Federal authorities. It is inexpedient and unwise tp pass the Blair bill because it" makes the , &tate$ to rely . upon the Government, to do that which the States can mveh better do or themselves. Wei dwelt at large npbnthis' line of thought when we gave the bill such a thor- ; ough consideration .. last year. All know vhowjnenv value i-thati most highly, which : is , obtained aft the greatest sacrifice ; and, per, contra, how men estimate t as of no i great ; value ; and ; dispose of it without much - hesitancy that which 'comes ' without cost. This, point we have " urged i with all ,' of -1 the fervor and , power of which we Wre master. Ex- . Gov.-Chamberlain, a Harvard gradu- ate and a man of superior abilities andexWBkith the pen,-1 in ' an elaborate article ixt the" New York Times ' oitiufnjn per- . , tinently: ,; v, ; ':ff ;.j .'To this is to be added the postulate that we value things of this sort in almost the direct ratio of their cost, to us. . What we . . . - earn we spend carefully or at least such is the tendency What we devise and pro- vide for public uses we da not submit ... ' . r . . .. .. TT 1. reacuiy to see n is tea or sioien. nence n is mat the idea of a paternal uovernmeni is aatefnl to a trae American. It means patronage on the one hand and tutelage oh the : other. . Beir-goverhment means -seu-help, manhood, fair play, hands off , and no favors, the tools to Wm;whO' can fhandter them, la carriere ouverte aux : talents in & word, freedom; anything else means some- tungieas than, ireeaom. r : It is; inexpedient to pass the Blair bill because the positive tendency will be - to ifure tAe 7 present common, schools sy-qtem. The States are to do - but one-half of the work of !edaca tion, as the bill proposes that Pater nal Government shall do the others half. Says Gov. Chamberlain with equal point and truth: i: "If the ratio had been reversed and the States required to raise and expend at least twice as much as the Nation gives, the re sult would be. less injurious. I do not be lieve that there is one State in the union to-day in which such a bill should take its natural effect in which the common schools now maintained would not receive a most serious if not fatal check in usefulness. I confess I greatly marvel to see experienced educators overlooking such features of the bill and such : considerations. The bill is called a bill to aid common -schools in the States. . It should Jbe called a bill to destroy common schools in the States. . "I think all instances of funds furnished largely or relatively largely from any sour ces, except local annual taxation of all the people of a community, teach us that such gratuitous or foreign funds are a curse to common schools." rl do not' mean that aid cannot be judiciously given to public ef forts, but lolo say there is ' danger in gifts for these purposes common schools from any source." j i T . ' - - The Southern people have been doing excellently. There has been great and steady progress all through the South in popular education. It Is the. boast of the Democratic party In North Carolina that so much has been accomplished for the education pf the children of both races. What has been i done has been the chief card . piayed by -speakers when on the hustings. The South is ma king tremendous strides in material development. The Baltimore Man ufacturers1 Record of the 10th of January, 1885, las a long paper on "the marvellous industrial develop ment of the South" in the year 1884. The new manufacturing enterprises alone that sprung np in that one year aggregate - the - enormous figures of $105,269,500. And in the face of this vast growth is wealth and mate rial development it is proposed to place shackles upon the "limbs of the iYoung Giant,"refreshed like a strong man to run a race," and not to permit him to dp but half work in the great field of education during the next ten years. Tins would prove very calamitous. At tbe end of ten years the Young Giant would be so emas culated, so debilitated that he would be but a big infant "muliDg and puking in its nurse's arms." Just here let ns quote from that eloquent, conscientious,able statesmar. Senator Pendleton. He said with reference to this very Blair bill, in reply to an other Senator: : "He was right, and I should like to sub mit to him,: if he were here, whether it ia not a dangerous experiment upon which he proposes to enter when he seeks to lead men who have 'shown themselves, accord ing to that high test, so worthy of freedom, and to be supporters of a free Government, to look away from their own self-denial, their own self-reliance, their own willing ness to labor and wait, and turn their eyes to the beneficence of a Paternal Govern ment. - ' ' ' "If it be true that this consummate flower of all tbe beautiful and beneficent institu tions with which heaven has blessed man in his best estate depends upon himself, grows upon the sturdy and hardy and heroic vir tues which consist in self-training, in self- aonegation, sell reliance, in industry, in fidelity to high purposes if that be true, is it not a dangerous experiment to lead such a people, who have developed those quali ties so magnificently, to turn away from their cultivation and to lean on the paternal arm of the .Federal Government of -the United States? For myself, Mr. President, I prefer the other way." Senator. Butler, of South Carolina; in a strong argument in opposition to the very-dangerous bill, said this: . "Why, Mr. President, there is no success in life comparable to the success which at tends individual effort, none so enduring, none so satisfactory. I would, therefore, be very cautious before I would appropriate $105,000,000 and put it with the States, the effect of which I am afraid would be. .among others, induce every man not every ; man, perhaps, that is extravagant but a very great many men who are now earnest ly struggling to build up their own local in stitutions, to put their hands in their pock ets ana say, xne uenerai government is go ing to educate everybody. What is the use of any man. paying taxes for education V That, I say, is my impression." i Senator Coke, in his masterly speech in. opposition, said, and with great force, to show the inexpediency of .the bill: ."Now. Mr. President. I am ormosed tn this bilL : I believe there is no constitution al warrant for it. I am opposed toft as a matter of expediency and policy. I believe that this bill is but the beginning. I believe that it is a Pandora's box of evils for the country. I believe that the Senator who ?votes for it if he lives five years wilfcsee that he has committed the mistake of his life in supporting it. - i "Mr. President, as soon as this bin passes the confession is made that the National Government can take charge of the common schools ofthe; States. The question be comes a national one at once; it goes into party politics at once. Do you not know -what that means down South ? - Our bre thren of the,. North, have, comparatively speaking, no negro population among them ; it will not affect them, but it will affect vi tally the States of tbe South. i "Look at our .postmasters in the South: look at our Federal. officeholders and those who gather about them, c, My colleague and myself receive appeal af ter appeal daily .f rom people In my State, signed by hun dreds, saying:' Tor God's sake jtry to keep1 ,tfie; Postmaster, General i. or the president from- removing A B; he is a BepubUcao; but he is an honest, $ood man, and accepta ble to us, and if he is removed a stranger that I we know nothing about will be put in,'- and when we go to thePostmaster General or President what does it amount tot ? We can do nothing. Let your public schools, oe taxen charge oi by the I'eaerai uovernment, ana your children piacea un der i the charge of ! its instrumentalities whilA .the present party is in power, and you can imagine in every neighborhood, in every school house, what the consequences will.be: von ran imapiae how trouble will I Te fomentedowndemagoguwUi'iitfr .

Let - Southern t men beware., Let them deliberate.long and pray ..much before they. take, such a fatal step. INTERNAL REVENUE IN TIIK . LE P - -GlSIi A.TURE. . "; - In the Legislature.' ont .Wednesday there was a long debate on a resolu tion"; to instruct ,'the'Nb'rtb?Carolipa delegation in the Congress , to vote for the total abolition of. he ; tax,, on. whiskey, tobacco, . beerj : cigars, -j&o. Of course the usual clap-trap argu ments against it were, made such as caliing it- a "monstrosity" andean "abomination" to tax such prime necessaries as whiskey and beer and cigars. (?) Men r who i say they are opposed to high taxes on tho neces saries of life and who knowthat there will be a deficit m l the U. S. Treasury of from $50,000,000- to $70,- 000,000 if the internal tax is wiped out are still blowing over., the awful abomination and oppressions of a tax on drinks and smokes and are found voting for its total abolition. The debate in the State Senate not only developed a good deal of talents but a good deal of opposition to such an absurd bill of instructions. The discussion was so conducted as to secure the striking ;out. of some of the objectionable features. We are much gratified to see. that some of the Senators took such a common- sense stand in regard to the measure. Mr. : .Bower wanted to amend so as to give it as the sense of the Legisla ture that a tax on whiskey, beer and cigars was a worse evil than the present bieh tax under the Tariff. Of course he did not put it that way, but it amounted to' that, no more, no less. Senator Connor, of Wilson, is thus reported in the News- Observer: "Mr. Connor said that he was not will ing to vote for the amendment. He said that he thought the great evil was the way in which the tax was collected. lie be lieved that a proper reformation of the tariff system of this country was of much more importance than any hasty repeal of the revenue act. He would be glad to see it repealed, that the Legislature might levy a tax which would be of great benefit to the people of the State. That the Senators and Representatives of the State x in Con gress should deal with this question. That he was perfectly willing to vote for tbe resolution as adopted by theHouse, leaving to our Senators and Representatives to deal with this question as it affects and is related to other questions. That he .was unwilling to dictate to them the time 'and manner in which they shall act. That in addition thereto he , did - not endorse ; the resolution as amended: that he did not 'be lieve the people whom he had the honor to represent regarded the repeal of the internal revenue as paramount to all other ques tions, j. This is sensible, statesmanlike and prudent. If there were more Con nors in the, Senate there would be less blundering. No man living can reconcile the abolition of the internal tax with the Democratic platform -at, Chicago, with the necessities of the Government, or with sound princi ples of taxation. , According to these bright political economists to tax beer and mean whiskey. is a greater burden and" curse; than to tax trace chains and r. btankets, cotton ties and window glass. P , When tfie vote occurred the other day on the Hiscock bill, in the TJ. S. House, only 79 votes . could be se cured .for it. This bill only proposed to abolish the tax . on tobacco and spirits distilled from fruit. An" an alysis of the vote discloses that only 46 Democrats favored. There was not one Republican, vote in favor of it West, of Ohio. Think of that. Most of the r Democrats who voted for it were men who are known to be deadly hostile to Tariff Reduction. Think of that. The attempt in the Legislature to - have it repealed amounts to nothing. It will not be done because the intelligence oi the country Js against it, : The Democrats in r their National -Convention declared that the inter .naltax should be retained as long as there was a cent remaining ; of the publio debt, or a solitary pensioner with a claim. Were they in earnest or were they merely . deceiving and, lying ? They declared farther that' the ;ltVLQ ; principle of taxation .was to put the, .heaviest, taxes on luxuries (diamonds, silks, spi- , uigam, wines, bc., ior in- stance) ld the lightest taxes on the poort man's' necessaries;' Mr. Cleveland Was eleoted on that, plat form.;;' x';:.z:::r: - j ., -,7 ' But this deesnot!suit JSlr.lBowe'r, Mr. Buxton, MrScotti Mr, Winston,!

Jaryis , or some one else in place of Ike Young, and Maj. W . M. Robbins or some one else in place of Mott, there will be no oppressions and no just Complaints. : - But the; Star vhaa long urged that the method of. collecting should be changed and save the tax which is needed. 1" . v ' ;.; ' There is one collector's district in Illinois that pays six times .more in ternal taxes than the whole of North Carolina pays, and still there are no complaints, and no demands for abol ishing! How is this? Again, not one cent , of the tax paid in North Carolina is paid by farmers or manu facturers, but by smokers, drinkers and chewers. Note that! ; Mr. Sherrill was not opposed to the law, but to the mode of collecting. Mr. ' Hill . was. opposed- to Bowers amendment. See above. Mr. Gudger, from Buncombe, 'said: "The people of North Carolina were not in favor of taxing the necessaries of life,, but in deriving the revenue from, the luxu ries; that the people were opposed to the manner of collecting it; that these cries of bppressive laws came from those who Vio late the laws. He offered as a substitute a resolution that revenue ought to be derived from the luxuries and not from the neces saries of life." : , ' Mr. Mason's amendment to Btrike out "immediate action" was adopted. Mr. Gudger'a substitute was lost, thereby putting the Legislature in opposition to the National Democrat ic Convention that declared precisely what Mr. Gndger contemplated. We copy from the proceedings: "Messrs. Gudger, Connor, Means and Gatling gave notice of protest. ' Mr. Connor said that as the measure did not represent tbe views of his constituents he voted no. Mr. Gatling said he thought we were .treading very nearly upon the same ground and making the same mistakes as the Con gress of the United States did in its resolu tion sent to the German Parliament. Mr. Hill thought we ought to be particu lar how we go on record in favor of high tariff ; he voted no. ; Mr.. Mason said he would vote aye,. and Would at a proper time move for a recon sideration. ' ; ..The resolution was carried. Mr. Mason moved to reconsider. Mr. Bobbins moved to lay-the motion upon the table. Mr. Hill called for the ayes and -noes. The motion to lay upon the table was not .carried. Mr. Means suggested that the res olution 'be made, the special order for to morrow. " 1 Mr. Thompson moved to adjourn, but j withdrew Ids motion for a few moments by ,itqnest; 'Vj.' ; - , , ' Did . the Senators favoring aboli tion stand on te Chicago platform last summer?. They have: kicked .themselves off. now. CURRENT COMMENT. It is notorious that Morton 'bought his mission .) to France with the money he subscribed to and raised for Garfield's election.

The Falcon is heartily in favor of having the pay of judges increased to an amount that will provide for them and their fami lies a comfortable living. ; The pay of the legislators, too, should be increased if it is insufficient. But let the compensation of these officers and of all public officers be drawn exclusively7 from tbe State, treasury. It is a public scandal, a standing reproach and a travesty upon tbe purity of the public service that tbe men who make railroad legislation, the men who construe railroad legislation and the men who enforce rail road legislation, should be in the employ or to the slightest extent beneficiaries of rail road companies. Public deadheading in North Carolina must cease. Elizabeth City 'Falcon. But if it is thought best to increase their salary to $3,000 we shall cheerfully acqui esce. But is it desirable to increase the number of terms of the Superior Court in every county ? We take it for granted that four-fifths of the counties have no more business before the courts than Warren has, and if so two courts a year will clear their dockets, and would it be just to tax the so .'much lareer number for the benefit of tbe few ? Why not let Wake, Wilmington and others who complain of crowded dock ets establish criminal courts ?
