CHICAGO OUT OF SITE.
New "York Sun.J
To read our esteemed Chicago
contemporaries now ia toj hear much
windy suspiration of forced breath
and to feel against one'8 face a bitter
spray of tears. The Chicago Herald
tries to control the convulsive twitch
ings of its intellectual conxenance and
peak up like' a little man. "Con
gress has a id that there shall be a
World's Fair in Chicago, and from
its decision there is no
appeal. In
spite of all drawbacks and embarrass
ments, Chicago is prepared to carry
out the wiahts of the people." So it
appears that Chicago didn't want the
Fair, but it was forced tipon her by
Congress. The American people
punished her for her overbounding
merit by making her hare the Fair,
willy nilly. If she refuses J what saeans
will Congress take to coerce her?
Would such refusal be equivalent to
an ov. rt act of rebellion Apparent
ly the constitutional lawyers in Cook
county hare given an opinion that
Chicago must hold a World's Fair in
1893, unless she ia willing to plant
her grand, majestic feet upon the
Constitution and the Congress of the
United States. Moodily, but full of
high resolution, the Windy City
blows wherever it listeth and longs
for a site,
given to
and there
it. ''Six
Bhall none be
months have
passed," growls the Chicago Herald,
"and we are not olc inch nearer a
Fair site than we were when the
President signed thV bilL" Ori.fis
wearing on you, and the cocky chip
percess of six months ago has passed
into doleful dumps. Yet be of good
cheer, Chicago. Consider the chasten
ing and purifying effects of disap
pointment bravely borne. Besides,
Congress can't make vou have the
Fair if yon don't wanrj i; . Pass it
along. Doubtless Kalamazoo will be
glad to have it, and is better able to
take care cf it. "Weep not, sweet
queen, for trickling tears are vain."
Did it loose its toy t Let Kalamazoo
have it, and don't worry
any more.
Our once philosophical contem
porary, the Chicago Tribune, breaks
into ironical laughter more painful
than tears:
"The placid waters o! Lake Michi
gan still undulate above the sub
merged lands of the outer harbor, and
there is every prospect that they will
continue long to do soi The Presi
dent of the Illinois Central does no
throw himself into the arms of the
Fair directors and sigh out in meek
surrender: 'The laker-front ia yours.'
The Secretary of War doei not know
what he can do about filling the har
bor, and is inclined to refer the mat
ter to Congress and a Board. That
means postponements to the next
century."
Isn't the next century long enough
for you to wait before you hold the
want io wait until
Fair? Do you
2000 and something ? It is not your
fault if the lake front site will not do,
and "as for Jackson Pirk, it is not
settled vet whethir there will be
enough dry land there for the Ex
position dove to find a testing place
for its feet."
Perhaps the Christopher Colum
bus is studying geography with his
egg this morning who will yet lead an
expedition of discoveijy to Chicago
and reveal to her euraptured eyes a
site for the World's I
Until th it adventurous snirit comes,
t
Congress will not think of com-
polling Chicago to hold the Fair.
She is no .v bellowing for a pou sto,
Give her a site for the World's Fair,
and she will move the wrld Mean
while she should not be too impatient
or Kalamazoo too greedy.

State Democratic Platform -
The following is the platform
adopted by th State Democratic
Convention at Raleigh, August 20th,
1890.
Resolved, That the Democracy
of North Carolina reaffirm the plat
form and principles of the Democrat
ic party, b 3th state and national, and
particularly favor the free coinage
of silver and an increase of the cur
rency, and the repeal of the internal
revenue system. And we denounce
the McKinley tariff bill as unjust to
the consumers of the country, and
promotive of the trusts, combines
and monopolies which have oppress
ed the people; and especially do we
denounce the unnecessary and b:ir
densome tax on cotton ties, and on
tin, so largely used by the poorer
portion of the people.
We likewise denounce the iniq ii
tous Lodge force bill, whose purpose
is to establish a second per:od of re
construction in the Southern States,
to subvert the liberties of our people
and inflame anew race antagonist and
sectional animosities. And we de
nounce the tyrannical action of
Speaker Reed and his abbttors who
have changed the Federal House of
Representatives from a deliberative
body into a machine to register the
will of a few partizan leaders.
Resolved, That we demand finan
cial reform, and the enactment of
laws that lemove the burdens of the
people, relieve the existing agricul
tural depression and do full and am
ple justice to the farmers and labor
ers of our country.
Resolved, That the Democracy of
North Carolina take a just pride in
the able and patriotic eourse of their
Senators and Representatives in
Congress touching the great public
questions,, that have been before
them for action, and especially do we
appreciate the great ability and zeal
of Senator Vance in tne protracted
contest on the tariff question which
reflect honor and credit alike on him
and on the State of North Carolina
and we cordially commend his re
election to the United States Senate
by the next General Assembly of
North Carolina, and we commend
the wise and satisfactory adminis
tration of our State officers.
Whereas, the education of the
people ia essential not ooly to in
dividual happiness and prosperity
but also to the maintenance of civil
and religious liberty,
Resolved. That the next General
Assembly of North Carolina is re
quested to increase the fund for tne
maintenance of public ecnools.
Resoled further, that we favor the
abolition of National banks, and the
substitution of legal tender Treasury
notes in lieu of National bank notes
issued in sufficient volume to do the
business of the country on a cash
sy8teipTegulatngr the amount needed
a per capita basis as tne business
interests of the country expands, aBd
that all money issued by the govern
ment shall be legal tender in pay
ment of all deb s, both public and
private.
That we favor that Congress shall
pass sucn lavs as snau eneciutuiy
prevent the dealing in futures of all
agricultural and mechanical produc
tions, preserving a stringent system
of procedure in trials as shall secure
the prompt conviction, ana imposing
such penalties as shall secure the
most perfect compliance with the
law.
That we favor the free and un
limited coinage of silver.
That we favor the passage of law
prohibiting the alien ownership of
land, and that Congress take early
7 a."
steps to devise some plan to obtain
ell lands ' now owned by alien and
foreign syndicates, and that all lands
now held by railroadsmd other cor
poratioos, in excess oi sucn as is
actually used and needed by them,
be reclaimed by the government ana
held for actual settlers now.
Believing in the doctrine of "equal
rights to all, and special privileges
to none," we demand that taxation,
National and State shall not be used
to build up one interest or class at
the expense of another. We believe
that the money of the country should
be kept as much s possible in the
hands ofthe people, and hence we
demand that all revenue, National,
State or county, shall be limited to
the necessary expenses of the gov
eminent economically and honestly
administered.
That' Congress issue a sufficient
amount of fractional currency to
facilitate exchange, through the
medium of the United states mail.
After the reading of the platform.
Cant. C M. Coke offered an amend-
which should have taken the place of
his resolution with reference to the
endorsement of Senator Vance. The
amendment provided that lha plat
form should express commendation
r.f Senator Vance and favor bis le-
AlAfttion to the SsnBte by the next.
ARE RIG-HT ;
General Asst-mbly. The amendment
was adopted amid ringing applause,
ana men tne platform was unani
mously adopted.
The Daily State Chronicle has
completed its first volume. While
as a "babe" it may have had "bad
nights" and suffered from '-indiges-
tion," yet on the whole we consider
it one of the healthiest, most active
and vigorous "babes in journalism'
we have yet seen. Brother Daniels
is giving the people of the State a
most excellent Democratic paper and
its influence i being felt far and
wide on account of its conscientious
and constant advocacy of the prin
ciples of the Democratic pa-ty. The
Daily Sfa'e Chronicle, though yet a
"babe" in the journalistic field, gives
token of a long and brilliant caroer.
My success always attend its efforts.

Mowing Contest.
As will be seen from the Souther
ner's advertising columns, which, by
the way, bristle with news and some
tunes with editorial matter vide
Racket store adv., that the merits of
the mowing machines are to be again
brought to the attention of the pub
lc. This time F. S. Royster, for th
Wood mower, challenges the world
to meet him at the Shiloh stock farm
next Tuesday.
The Southerner ia notinfoimed
as to who will accept the challenge,
but the opinion is prevalent tLat he
will Lot have a walkover if an agent
of the Deering machine has to come
from Scotland Neck.
The Southerner is authorized to

Injured Horses.
J. W. Day, owner of livery sta
bles in this place, had two of his
finest and most valuable horses
driven almost to death last Sunday
by two negroes, Bob Killebrew and
Tom Ward, who rented tbem from
him.
Killebrew left tlm place Sunday
merninsr at eleven o'clock for Scot
land Neck and did not retnrn until
eight o'clock that night. Where he
went no one knows, but to see the
condition of the horse, would fully
convince one tbat hs had driven
the horse speedily for several
miles.
Ward left about six o'clock for
Toisnot and returned about dark
with the horse he drove in a similar
condition.
These negroes learniug that a
warrant bad been issued f r them
immediately fled to escape punish
ment. The reporter on hearing of the in
jury of the horses, went down to Mr.
Day s stables to see them and they
were found to be in a terrible condi
tion.
Neither of the horses would move
without being forced, and then iheir
injuries were very apparent.
They had been driven so speedily
that they had become found rd and
almost ruined for life.
Mr. Day values one of them at
$225 and the other at $200.
It is safe to say that if these ne
groes are caught the fullest extent
of the punishment by law will be
imposed upon them for their cruelty,
and it should be.

paid for tobacco at Lis Warehouse, "The

There is no warehouse firm in the

Harris, Go ch & Company, Henderson,

pav no inteiest on money, and are giving
entire satisfaction to the many patrons in
this and all other bright tobacco sections.
Mr. Geo. B. Elam represents them in this
section. Correspondence with him for
any information you may want about the
weed and its prices solicited. 2t
On the 24th of September, Messrs.
Harris, Gooch & Company, Henderson,
N. C, will bave a special sale for Eastern
tobacco. The factlthat the finest tobacco
made this year is in the counties of Edge
combe, Pitt, Wilson, Nash, Halifax and
Wayne, will give this day prominence in
the tobacco world, aud we look for the
highest prices of the season. Parties who
can get shipments ready would do well
to take advantage of this sale. 2t
Messrs. Harris, Gooch & Company, the
popular warehousemen of Henderson, N.
C. in addition to their large and con
stantly growing trade, are among the
largest farmers in this section of the State,
owaing more than 10,000 acres, several
thousand of which are in cultivation. If
there is a firm in North Carolina knowing
the need of the farmer and sympathizing
with his condition it is them. If there is
a warehouse in the btate will always pro
tect the tobacco grower, they have proved
beyond question, that they do. 2u
Mr. F. D. Foxtail, living near town,
sold a lot of tobacco last week, the first
he ever raised, with Messrs. Harris.
Gooch & Company, C, for rhe follow
iosc prices, barn round: $50, $47, $55,
$39, $27.50 and $25, making an average
of $41.03. Mr. Foxhall offered this
tobacco to Mr. G. B. Elam, the repreeea
Utive of this Warehouse, for $20 round,
but Mr. Elam, not wishing to take advan
tage of his superior knowledge of prices,
declined to buy it and sold it for more
than double what was asked. 2t
Help Home.
If tobacco can be sold in Rocky Mount
for as much as it can in Oxford or Hen
derson it will be wisdom on the part of
the Edgecombe Nash and Pitt producers
to market their" tobacco where prices are
as good. Dnuehtry. Hart; Wimberly and
a hundred others who have tried this ana
other markets can vouch for the truth of
the statement. The editor of the South
kbnkk can voucn for the satisfaction ex
pressed by scores at the break on 4th at

superiority or tne Graded
School. .
To THH EniTOB of Thk Sotjthibbsb :
The most advanced and enlightened
teachers ana scholars are virtually a unit
in the opinion tbat graded schools by far
surpass the old style, in their method
of imparting instruction, as the electric
motor beats the, old stage team.
Education, in the South, is emerging
irom me enrysaus state into toe lull
bloom fruition of the perfect form.
By the new and improved parapharnalia
for object lessons and. quickly appre
hended illustration a pupil, of ordinary
mind, can gather knowledge mare thor
oughly and in a much stricter period, and
it comes to his apprehension in a far more
entertauung and durable way.
As a man would excite ridicule by at'
tempting to provd the superiority of
electrjcity and B(eam over the ancient
powers, so it seems to be a work of
supererogation to show the greater merit
of the Graded School. Electricity, steam
and graded achooia stand forth pre
eminently proiensive witn Weir own ex-
penmental excellence.
Prof. George T. Winston, of the 8tat
University, a thoroughly equipped educa
tor and scholar and advanced with the
best in the most enlightened general lm-
iormation, nas wmten hi views oo the
subject of Graded Schools, in the Ralegh
Chronicle of April 2nd, which is attractive
for the remarkable facts he adduces.
Speaking of the Goldsboro Graded
School he says:
There is " a community in North
Carolina that has virtually solved the
problem of public education and has
pointed out the path of educational pro
gress, it is Goldsboro. The experience
of this community shows;
1. I hat, as co-operation in govern-
ments, ia chy improvements, in manu
facture and in ba iking, so a community
may secure the best education, the cheap
est education and the most broadly dif
fused education by co-operation.
2. Tbat, as manufacturing establish
ments are successful only when managed
by men skillful and experienced in such
work, and as banking ia successful only
when managed by skillful bankers, so any
successful system of public school must
te practicvliy under the control of learn
ed, experienced and faithful educators.
t. That when a community unites in
support of its public schools, when men
of influence and property give aid and
sympathy, when thoroughly qualified
teachers are put ia charge and allowed to
direct the system for which they are held
responsible, then an entire community, at
a very reasonable cost, enjoys the bless
ing of an efficient mental training and a
refining culture which etherwise had been
accessible only te the children of the
richest.
After discussing the details of the
school management, hr says :
"The school board gave to the super
intendent the entire management of the
school, never interfering in any respect
with his business- There are three de
partments of the school, each having
three grades and requiring three years.
They are the Primary, the Grammar
School and the High School. Pupils en
ter at six years unable to read or write.
At fifteen they are ready for the Fresh
man class in the University, the Sopho
more class in the Colleges, or the Junior
class in the Female colleges."
Then follows the course of instruction
and these starling facts;
"Pupils from the school bave taken a
high stand at the University, Trinity Col
lege. St. Mary's Pchool, Peace Institute,
Mt. Holyoke seminary, (Mass.), Greens
boro Female College. Mr. Robert Willis,
who completed only the eighth grade of
the school and therefore lacked one year
of graduation, entered Trinity . College
last fall and received the prize for tbe
best entrance examination. Mr. Geo. P.
Howell, who received his training entire
ly at this school, was one of the best pre
pared students ia his class at the Univer
sity, kept at the head of his class in
scholarship passed the best competitive
examination in his Congressional district
for tbe appointment to West Point, re-
ceived the appointment, and is now at the
head of his class in scholarship. It has
sent four pupils to the , University who
were able to enter the Sophomore class in
English."
Just think of it I . The Goldsboro school
"bas sent four pupils to the University,
who were able to enter the Sophoropre
Class in English."
With the unity of progressive sentl
meat, liberality and enlightenment that
prevail in Goldsboro, Tarboro could
soon boast a school of equal merit. It now
has the best school to which children of
