Kllgo, of TrinUv- College; Durham, N. C.. before the American Bankers' Association at Chicago, Frl- , ? day .Evening, frMiTvmhvr 1.7. "One of The most splendid achieve ments of our American history Is the unlimited opportunity it has furnish ed men of all classes and races to im prove their industrial and social con dittoh's anil to rLau,-jo the? hlghmtj points of success. fh the halls of >^arae art* recorded the ^ames of those who have d?me some immortal thing ln~lctters or art or war or pontics, but a roll that also reflects great lion Or upon our . American govern-, ment, the one that marks*' Che high | point of our socijii yvolution,'*is that long roll of Americans who began at | the lowest point aiid_lijL fidelity and! labor rose stop by step till th*\v ...reached the summit* of Industrial in fluence and prtwer. . ThaTts the com- 1 mou story of American qien of bust ""tiess success. The Americans- today who "l'1' Inl-1'.' ii.nl nrf nil power throughout the world, whose names give value to commercial pa per irr every market, bear witness to the genuineness of democracy in our Industrialism. The little tot who is selling his papers along the street at a penny a copy Is the citizen of a country and the heir of industrial traditions that make possible* to him the day when he will own the paper and the voice become a national power. That is not the dream o? democratic itleallsm, it is the wonder ful re. ord of our democratic Indus.] trlalisjn. ? ? | Strrrnrir'cotlegp president, to somel extent seriously desirous of incalcat-l ing itj Southern youth v.-ho come up] under my direction the true idea of I Americanism as I se.e it. I have often j coveted the right 'ami the ifbillty to build on my college grounds nnj American monument. I should build a great, strong pedestal upon which 1 with their ?hoaih**d swords at their' ^feet, clasping each other's right hanijj I should place the statues of riysse?| S. Grant and Robert K." Lee, the heroj of v t-t??ry and <lu? linro <?f defeat ? L should-*}- mortise by their hand-grip t he reunion of a lap<l too strong to be hewn asunder by batle-axe. 1 should adopt as the sentiment to be inscrib ed upon it. those famous words of Grant: "Let us have pence.' "inr one side of ihe pedestal with brenze tab let 1 should celebrate 1 he nf the federal soldier; on another J should pay- tHbute to the unparal JeTed patriotism of American mother hrw i and j'.ptmti.'wi: v.'.n ?"?!? ir.l re maining I should pay d':e honor to the high example of loyalty ?o sub limely illustrated by the old negr^i uaciuy ami mnmrajr who worked In tfthern rom-flclds nod fared for! f^ou thorn women htm] i-hildrvn during tho&e yi-ars of furious strife. And. Sir, out of fire tvhol? corruption k would wish the student to r^ad this glorious truth: Amerinnii believe1. In the union of their cour.iry; ttiey believe In and f;X2lt hfniaji vkiiii'a wherever "stressed, whether In the friend or foe. whether In man or In woman, whether in .lord or hIjtvp. whether In blark or white, whether in thf* nortli f.r The south or thf eas* j or thf went, aiwny* and everywhere mertmns brltfrr Vrr man hood manhood virtues.

That is to say, hiey figure' on 30 pounds tare tor each 500-p6u|id bale; and on each 500-pound barte. therefore, they al cient to pay lor only 4 70 pounds net of lint cotton. In other words, the prlcO paid per pound for fbe whole ?500 pounds" ts lowered so as to allow for 30 pounds tare. Now, the average farmer instead of putting 170 pounds of lint cotton and 30 potj^ds of bagging intdHf 500 -WHthd. UaU?v? t?uu;4u ? ? pmmtis- j.i <????

At a meeting of -foreign manufacturer:! ? with^representatives of .the Parmero^ rVnlonTn Washington City a year or two ago. the manufacturers inquired "Why is it that when cotton leaves the farmer's gin it has only 20 to 22 pounds of tare, but has 3-1 pounds by -the time it reaches us?" This la the explanation. Put on all the bagging and ties that you can buy for 3 1-2 cents a pound and sell for 12 1-2 cents. ?Progres sive Farmer. LIBERTY VS. CRKENS.

Jot'Jijs.y- Smalt delivered an educational address at the Pantego AihJeiny on last Tuesday evening. WtlttF Introducing the speaker, Mr. T; HrJohnson, speaking of the schoot of Prof. Bennett and his capable as sistants have made that school sec ond to none in Beaufort county. Mr. Small made a very interesting address. He spoke of the good repu tation the school bore all over the flinty LUi highly commended -fhe school _for its beautiful school garden, and hoped that some day all the other schools in the Old North Slate might folio*- -the good initiative set by the Pautego High School. He did not fail to make a plea for agri culture li? the schools, and the benefit of a good garden In making practical tests of the knowledge imparted in the text. Prepare the children for actual life, was his. plea, pleasingly and even eloquently made. And In. addition to what, is taught in the Pantego school now, he said he hoped the time would soon come when, like Washington this year, domestic sci ence and manual training, both, would be added to the curriculum. He then warned the people not to be ifrald of high taxes tor build up the | ?cfiTool, as in the future It would ntvl back a hundred fold, both In a model, M-liuul and lu better iltiEcnelilp. This address was very opportune, an the school Is in a very crowded '"condition. "Two years ago. says Prof. Bennett, the school began with an enrollment of 75 pupils; last year Willi 95; wlillc thla year i( atarta owl with 125, so that larger quarters and more teachers arfc ft. necessity. But^ with the loyalty.to the school already shown, with the additlomil school spirit credited by'/ this. ..address. and .with the broad-m: . I?'.J-m* :? who-are lexers In tint yonfraunity, the school will no*^ doubt" be properly care for. ?>Ji Wf .Intrdav mornlirg .Mr. Smal 1 visited the High School and- while there Incpectetf^the pehool garden. He. e;c pressed himself as ? highly pleaded, both with the .-chool garden and the good deportment of the pupils. ' t - AM KHM 'AX MISKllttAHIKS Washington. I ) . v C. ? ?
