EVENING EDITION.
j EDUCATION-TRINITY ENDOW-
- ' BEENT.
A North Carolina secular paper
may with propriety discuss any ques
tion that concerns the public weal.
Education is one of those questions
that will not down. It is with us al
'A I
ways like taxes. Every man, every
citizen is really, interested in it, for
it has much to do with the prosperity
and glory of a Commonwealth. A
great deal depends upon right educa
tion . "As the twig is bent so is the
tree inclined." Start the young in
right ways and when they advance
in life they will probably continue in
them. Early influences and associa
tions are potential for good or evil.
The education of the mind and the
soul the training of the intellect,
moral nature and physical man, is a
prime essential. The ancients, who
knew but little of God and immor
tality, taught the importance of a
sound mind in a sound body. Ho
race wrote Mens sana in corpore
sano. The having of a well bal
anced, healthy mind in a sound,
healthy body he regarded as the first
and best wish that a rational being
could desire or could seek to attain !
unto. And Horace was right.
(The Stab, as have many of its
State contemporaries, from time to
time has discussed educational ques
tions. It is because of the necessity
of good schools that it has written so
much of the leading colleges and the
high schools and the common schools.
It has not only often discussed edu
cation as an abstract question, but it
has not thought it inconsistent with
its position as a public teacher and
exponent of sound views to have
more or less to say of the University
of DavidsoD, of Wake Forest, of
Trinity and of Rutherford College.
It has been entirely favorable to
these institutions. More than once
it has complained' of what it re
garded as mistakes or abuees or
neglect, but it has ., not spoken as an
enemy, or as one seeking to injure
under the guise of friendship; If the
secular papers cannot discuss educa
tional Institutions then their field is
circumscribed indeed; Some may
Chink that only religious papers shall
Consider denominational colleges.
But this is a narrow view, for these
colleges are important factors in the
development of the true interests of
the State. They are to furnish many
of its future men of influence, talents
and -learning in all of the vocations.
1 , The Stab, as some three or four of
its exchanges have doe, sought to
arouse public attention to the impor
tance of endowing Trinity College.
It was actuated by high motives, for
it sought to help the whole State that
is directly concerned in having Trin
ity a fciiperior institution of learning,
v "equal to the ; best,; and upon a firm
1 foundation, .to do thisan endow
mens. is a necessity.- With ; money
the best talents and learning can be
secured. "
QThe Raleigh Advocate, in its latest
issue, 'raps those editors who have
presumed to write about Trinity. It
says: -"Waiiave
had nlentv of talk. It is very
easy for an editor to take his pen and abuse
the North Carolina Methodists for not en
flowing Trinity. Those who do the least
generally talk the most."
We are .not aware that secular
editors have "abused" Methodists
"for not endowing Trinity." They
have merely pointed to a fact: that
Trinity remains unendowed, and has
been run for two years by the publio
spirit j&nd private means of three
broadgauged, enlightened, worthy
laymen of the Methodist Church. It
has been pointed out also that there
are some 115,000 or 120,000 white
Methodists in the State. That the
Methodists are able to endow Trinity
no sane man will gainsay. The ;eeo
ular press understands the power of
iteration,and it knows how to awaken
publio interest and create an intelli
gent public sentiment, and some of
the secular editors are no doubt will
ing and anxious to aid Trinity
by talk, pen and pocket. We would
not be surprised if there are not edi
tors in North Carolina who would be
willing to give as much in proportion
to means as the man who rebukes
them for "abusive" talk.
.' . !-.,
The Advocate publishes a judicious
and kind communication of great
length from ex-Gov. Jarvis, the most
of which is devoted to Trinity, and
the editor says he "writes sensibly
about" it. We agree with him- in
this. And yet Gov. Jarvis eaya very
much what has been said by the sec
ular editors. He is . too much of a
statesman to live in "a pent up
Utica" and to see only the little ho
rizon above an editor's little office.
He says; . -
"I have felt all the pride of a Presbyte
rian over the high position attained by Da
vidson. I have rejoiced with the Baptists
over their success in their commendable,
efforts to endow Wake Forest; as every
friend of education must do, as he sees the
increased and increasing usefulness of that
progressive institution. 1 have mourned
with the Methodists over the embarrass
ments of Trinity, arid its failure to do Vie
work expected of it by its founder and
friends, it is of this college, and the duty
resting upon its friends, that wish to
epeakmofe particularly. In fact, it is the
real purpose of this letter. "
Gov. Jarvis is a North Carolinian
and a Methodist, and he sees that the
right and proper thing remains yet to
be done to make Trinity what it
ought to be. He sees that it ought
to be endowed, and he suggests a
plan that the Advocate says the Con
ference, that meets on Wednesday at
Reidsville, will "consider well." j He
proposes to put the boys to work a
very good idea it is. j
We notice that our old friend Rev.
B. B. Cnlbreth, in a short communi
cation, in the Goldsboro Advance,
that is doing such excellent work for
the Methodists, says that "much has
been written, much has been said,
and not much has been done for Trin
ity in the way of endowment." He
proposes to do something and to
have a plan upon which to work. He
says: .
"The noble men who have had charge of
the college for the past . two years, cannot
afford to continue the present arrangement
when the church has failed to comply with
its part of the contract.
"1 respectfully suggest that an associa
tion be formed at Conference, and let the
association select three live laymen and
send them forth, backed up by the whole
church, and the work of raising raising one
hundred thousand dollars can be done in one
year. If we send out agents, let tbem be
aymen Dy ail means. !
Here is something practical, i The
Stab suggested three live agents.
Mr. Culbreth probably never heard
of what the Stab suggested. ! He
suggests "three live laymen? -A
T0y good saprgeBtion. We believe
that 115,000 Methodists can raise in
three or five years $100,000. This
writer thinks he knows 500 Metho
dists who can be induced to j give
$2,500 an average of $5 each. Some
of these can give 50 cents, some $1,
some $2, some $3, some $5, some
$10, some $20, some $50, and some
few $100. He thinks they will give
it if properly approached. He thinks
he know8 a half dozen Methodists
who might give $500 each, but wheth
er thejjwould give that sum is more
than he can say. But there . are
enough Methodists toraise the $100,
000 if the proper, efforts are made!
There is real interest felt in Trin-
ity outside of Methodist circles. Said
that Christian gentleman and scholar,
Rev. Dr. Charles Taylor President
of Wake " Forest College, in a re
cent private i conversation, , "I am
anxious to see Trinity College well
endowed and Dr. Tillett at its head.";
We heartily : indorse -the sentiment
and hope to see both. The States
ville Christian Advocate,' another
zealous, useful and . intelligent expo-:
nent of North Carolina Methodism,1
in its last issue, says of the Presi
dent of Trinity College:
'Just who that man is we do cot pretend
to knor, d if we did, t v! would
he the next question to setw. A from our
present know!; we think of no one in or
out of the P . aoro suitable for that posi
iionthanL Dr. W. P. Tillett, of the
.Vanderbilt University. He is a native of
North Carolina and more familiar wit x
North Carolinians than any one that could
likely be gotten out of, and equally so with
any in. the State. Besides, we- take it that
he is every way as well qualified for the po
eition as any one we can. get. at homo or
abroad." ; -.-; r:'''sr';-lt.'Sz:
I If the Trustees ofYTriniiYwould
invite him, unanimously! and press-
ingly, with a guaranteed salary of
$2,500, with a house to live in,' and
backed up with a good prospect, of a
sufficient endowment in the near fu
ture, we must believe tbat Db. Tillett
could be persuaded to enter upon the
most important '-work iot making
Trinity College a "grand and impos
ing institution. In"nd other field
could he do so much for his own peo
ple and -s fpr the -whole people of
North Carolina. ": '
NORTHERN TESTIMONY. -
i - The South will yet be more highly,
appreciated- in the North. After
awhile the - Blaines and ! other slan
derers and haters of the Southern
people will have gone to their place
and-another generation will .have
come to the front throughout; the
North. They will have a broader
patriotism and a wider chanty. -. Al
ready there are hopeful signs. Blaine
has found out how he erred in the
late campaign as to the wages paid
the negroes in the South. In our
dispatches " of Sunday our readers
Were . informed how J udge Kelley
(not Kelly as it was spelled) of Penn
sylvania, known as "Pig-iron" Kel
ley, because of his extreme Protec
tion views as to iron, 1 &c, was in
Alabama, and how he said in a pub
lic speech that he "would go back
home and - tell his people that the
negro laborers of Alabama and Ten
nessee were as well paid as white la
borers in Pennsylvania." Here is
another pleasing sign. John Hab
berton, author of "Helen's Babies,"
in the November number of Lippin
cotts Magazine has a novel complete
'entitled "Brueton'a Bavou." In it
he pays this incidental tribute to our
people. He says: : ? i
"It is a charming picture of Southern
life on the banks of the Mississippi. South
em good will, hospitality,-frankness and
courtesy receive a tribute from the North
which they deserve. In the cold atmos
phere of this restless city, two very hu
mane and civilising, ideas are gradually
dying out that the family is the true social
unit and that there is a brotherhood among
men. Intense selfishness is killing natural
courtesy and there are those who fear that
before many years the true American gen
tleman will be found only in the South."
Believing that the opinions of
Southern newspapers are quite as im
portant as those of Northern news
papers' the Stab copies quite f as
much, possibly a good , deal more,
from its Southern exchanges . as
from its Northern. We like to
recognize the ability; of contem
poraries in and out of the State, and
other things being equal we give
preference to the papers in the South.
We believe tbat New Orleans, Mo
bile, Louisville, Augusta, Savannah,
Memphis, Charleston, Richmond,
Lynchburg, Norfolk, Baltimore and
other Southern cities have as -able
editors as the larger cities, and that
the papers of those cities arc edited
by as patriotic and pure men as be
long to the craft.- -They know more
of the true condition, the needs, de
sires, motives and 'principles of the
people of the South than the North
era editors can possibly know, and
wo find their utterances more intelli
gent and more entitled to considera
tion than those of the. North. : On
questions of, general public policy it
is well to draw upon ; Northern ex
changes. '

The New York Sun is amus
ing itself at present with th harmless
pastime of booming Mr. Samuel J.
Randall for the Presidency in 1888.
As the Sun may unconsciously reason
itself, however, into the belief that
the object of its affection can really
be the lucky man, it may be well for
that journal, -which shines so bril
liantly for all, to know that a large
majority "of the Democrats of this
country are determined not to give
the power of the veto to a man who
upholds -the system by which .the
many are taxed for the few, and who
has been most aotive in resisting all
efforts to relieve the people of un
necessary and i oppressive burdens.
The Democratic candidate in 1888
must be, not the champion of that
small class, the protected capitalist
producers of this country, but the
staunch and- unwavering leader of
the people in their warfare upon the
tribute system, which is the mainstay
of monopoly, and which is an in
tolerable offence to every freeman.

OLD LEADERS PASSING
AWAY. ;
St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
- An impressive illustration of the
changes which time has made in this
country in a period comparatively
brief can be given by calling a roll
of the. names of the notable men who
have passed away since the close of
the civil war, .On the list of Presi
dents are the names of Lincoln who
died as the Confederacy was col
lapsing Buchanan, Pierce, Fillmore,
Johnson, Garfield, Grant, and Arthur.
Eight of the twenty-two Presidents
whom the Nation has had, or over
one third of the whole number, have
been removed by death in a period
only a little greater than one-fifth
Of the time which has passed since
the first President was inaugurated.
Among the men who bore a conspic
uous part in the war on either side,
who have died since that struggle
closed omitting Grant,already men
tionedare Meade, - Thomas, Han
cock, Farragut, McClellan and Mc
Dowell, of the Union Army and
Navy, and Lee acid Breckinridge, of
the forces of the , Confederacy. . Of
the civilians more or less distin
guished during the war who have
gone hence since then are Seward,
Fessenden, Lot M. Morrill, Stanton,
Gideon Welles, Zachariah Chandler,
Thaddeus Stevens, John A. Andrew,
E. D. Morgan, O. P. Morton, Wade,
Greeley, Wilson, Sumner, Colfax,
Seymour and Charles Francis Adams,
of the North, and J. P. Benjamin,
A. H. Stepbens and Robert Toombs,
of the South; "The men who have
departed within the past two decades
bearing a national reputation made
since the war ended can be counted
by V the dozen. Among the best
whose , names come to mind at this
moment are Frelinghuysen, Tilden,
Hendricks and John Kelly.

A Bitter Flgnt Between' Rival Towns

Chicago, November 29. A special to
the Times from Fargo, Dak., says that at
the late election the town of LaMoure se
cured a small majority in favor of remov
ing the county seat from its location at the
rival town of Grand Rapids to LaMoure.
A few nights later, in , pursuance of the
usual practice in such cases, a mob went to
capture the county records by force. They
found the court house in the possession of
the sheriff and a posse of twenty armed
men, but the latter fled before a fierce as
sault, and the doors were beaten down and
the archives captured.- This was done,
knowing that U. S. Judge Francis, of that
District, had granted an injunction re
straining the removal, which had not been
served. , It is learned now that Judge
Francis regards the citizens of LaMoure as
in contempt of court, and has given them
ten days to get the records back to Grand
Rapids, and purge themselves of contempt.
He refused to hear their attorneys, It iB
one of the bitterest of the county seat
fights for which Dakota is noted, and there
is danger of further violence.
