Some Short Talk.
This U 1894. The year 1893 id
behind u. Let us now look forward,
not backward. We want to oiuix
forward also. The country has had quoted Jefferson's fnaogijral as esn
a money panic and the grippe. It is j brackiz hw theories of republican
hard to say which was worse. We
do not yeara for aay tnore of cither
Times are now getting socqe better.
Let us forget the panic aad the grippe.
This in to fee sr big school year.
Every teacher re ant help makeoake
it so. W want s great educatiooal
ao)aign and revival. The people
re to be aroused as never before.
Parents must be persuaded to do
more thiaking on this subject, and
every child ebould be in school or
college. Every teacher must be with
the great Assembly in June, if possi
ble. This is no time for dissentions
or divisioas. The people and the
-
teachers must be firmly united for the
com .n on good of our schools and our
children. Private education and pub
lic education must walk hand in band
A stronger brotherhood is to prevail.
The teachers should be satisfied
only by doing the very best work
possible. Let this be a year of hard
work earnest work for the child
ren of North Carolina. No worker
will have to be discouraged. Each
teacher must help every other teach
er, frimary scIkxms, preparatory
Bebools, colleges and universities
must try to build op one another.

fifty millions ujion rivers and har

In these letters, Mr. Editor, I have
in a feeble way, endeavored to out
line the principles of "Democracy
as laid down by that great friend of
popular Government, Thomas Jeffer
son, bearing upon certain issues that
are before the Amt-rican peope(to
day, clamoring for settlement.. At
this particular period in our coun
try's history, it seems very imporant
tliat we should go back to "the old
landmarks" fur guidance, especial

as now, we see the fundamental prin

Certainly no one wants a moneyed
ari8focracy established in the land;
nor class tyranny, nor corporation
rule, then we must "resist the begin

of this countrydid this precept of
profound wisdom deserve more at
tention. ,
"A little patience, and we shall see
the reign of witcbea pass over, their j
spells dissoWed. nd th people re-
covering tbe,r true .igu, resting

1798 when he. was gathering ail his
strength to rally the people against
the Federalist forces of Hamilton,
and when the year 1800 came rolling
up to take iU allotted place in the
annals of time, "Behold the foul
