It would be a mutual benefit to meet together, get better acqu aint ed, and liscuss matters pertaining to school work'. j A committee could be appointed to arrange a program.

It should be the first duty of the Legislature which meets in Jan uary, to appropriate an amount sufll- cient to erect suitable buildings to accommodate all who attend. This is a Slate institution, aid likely to' be of greater good to North Carolina? than any other school we have ; it would be a good investment for the Statejto enlarge its buddings that a greater number 'might -'i receive in ' sf ruction there.

Sept. 28, 1892. 1 The Thirdites who haye been here toforc Demtxjrats must feel ashamed of themselves when they recognize the fact that they are attempting to divide the white people of the South and giving as their chief excuse that they can't vote for Mr. Cleveland, now since the man they offered the nomination for Presidency to Judge Walter Q . Qresharn is going to vote for Mr. Cleveland and the balance of the Democratic ticket. Judge G res ham, of Indiana,- has been a life long Republican and has been favor ably spoken of iri connection with the Republican nomination for the Presidency -t But Miis honesty has been such that lie could never carry the delegation of his own State and for that reason he has never been the Presidential nominee of the Republi can part'. To further show his hou esty, when the committe approaclied ibitn to ascertain whether or not he would accept tlve nomination for President by the Third party, he very candidly replied that he would not accept under any consideration, and that there was n platform that thej could formulate that would cause , . .1. 1 ... . .. 3 roing to vi-te tor air. uieveiana 1 Hon.
