The one hundred and eleventh
annual commancement exercises
at the. University of North Caro
lina were held last week and were
much enjoyed by all who attended
them.
All friends of higher education
should feel gratified at the pres
ent flourishing condition of our
State University. The past year
has been its most successful in
its long career of usefulness. Its
students have been more in num
ber than ever before, its standard
of scholarship higher, its facility '

at the' University that has ever
been built by an appropriation of
the Legislature,
Home mouths ago Mr. Andrew
Csirnecie offered to give the Uni-
ersity $5U,(KK) for the ei
- t j
a library building if nn additional
$50,000 would be raised for its
endowment. President Venable
announced at the meeting of the
alumni association, held on Tues
day of commencement, that $45,
U00 of the required endowment
had been raised, and steps were
at once taken to raise the needed
$5,000. It is hoped that the pro
posed library building will be
completed next year.
One ot the most pleasing inci
dents of com men cement was the
conferring of the University's
highest honiaiy degree (that of
J.Au 1). ) on President Poteat of
AVake Forest and President Smith
of Davidson College. Such acts
as this will draw closer the kind
ly relations that should always
exist between the Sute'& Univer
sity and the denominational col
leges. Hereafter "commencement day"
will be the first Tuesday in June,
instead of the Wednesday before
the first Thursday in June as
heretofore.
Jr there was a Presidential elec
tion this year there is no doubt
that Hon. William Jennings Bry
an would be nominated as the
Democratic candidate almost with
out opposition. Although a Pres
ident will not be elected until
1308, yet already several State
conventions have declared for him.
Not only that, but prominent
Democrats who had opposed him
iu 1896 and 1900 are now advocat
ing his nomination. He will re
turn early in August from an ex
tended trip to Europe and Asia,
ami will be welcomed on his arrival
at New York with a grand ovation,
when he is expected to make a
most notable speech.
Senator Simmons should feel
highly gratified at the unanimity
with which he is !eing endorsed
lor re election. Nearly every coun
ty convention thus far held has
by a unanimous vote endorsed
him for re-election to the Senate,
aud he will no doubt be re-elected
without opposition. This endorse
ment of Senator Himmons is well
deserved by him, nnd shows that
be is properly appreciated by the
best people of this State.
It should be very gratifying to
all North Carolinians, regardless
of party, to note the high stand
taken iu Congress hy both of our
Senators, both Simmons aud Over
man. Mint persons think that cotton

Washington Letter. i
From our K6glaractrtBooD.
Washington, June 7, 1906.
The packers have at last coma
into the open to fight the meat
inspection provision of the Agri-
cultural bill as embodied m the
Beveridge amendment,. And the
chances are that they will win th
day finally as great business ih
te rests usually do when they un
dertake to bring influence to bear
on Congress. Chairman Wads
worth and his associates on the
Agricultural Committee gave a
heaving this week to Mr. Thos.
E. Wilson, one of-the representa
tives of the packers. There were
present at the hearing Secretary
Wilson, Dr. Melvin of the Bureau
of Animal Industry, Mr. Neil I,
Commissioner of Labor und';trie
joint author of the row famous
Neill-Reynolds report. All of the
big Chicago packers constituting
the Trust had with their usual
thrift assigned Mr. Wilson to'
speak for them,. and: he played
the dew-excuse nie-packers' ad
vocate, to t'ae best of his aoility.
The session was warm at times.
He flatly contradicted the report loss if lihVamotfutiug to tens of
of Messrs.. Neil I and Reynolds as . thousands. 'The rivers were high

The Thrice-a-Week World hopes
to be in 190G a better paper thau
it has ever been before, and it has
mad its arrangements according
ly. Its news service covers the
entire globe, and it reports every -
tlnngfully, promptly and accuraie-
lv. It is the. onlv
pape
r, not a
djily, which is as good as a daily,
and which will keep you as com
pletely iuformed of what is hap
pening throughout the world.
The Thrice-a-Week World is
fair in its' political reports. You
can get the truth from its columns,
whether you are Republican or
Democrat, and that is what you
want. -c -
A special feature of the Thrice-a-Week
World has always been its
serial fiction. It publishes novels
bj' the best authors in the world,
novels which in book form sell
for $1 50 apiece, and its high stan
dard in this respect will be main
tained in the future as in the past.
The Thrice-a-Week World's
regular subscription price is only
$1 00 per year, aud this; pays for
156 papers. We offer this unequal
led newspaper aud The Chatham
Recobd together for one year 5 for
$2.25. The regular subscription
price of the two papers is $2.50.
