Too bad, for if there is auy mini more ad mired tbau am worthy liiend 1). K. we wojld like to see hioi and do doubt we ill tnisa him.

Yet if he could command u tittle more for his uJs aud the jieople take hi paper for a little mure thuti whut he offers it would be still a better puper yet, but "o people t ro t hut kind and D.

We hoK not to delay any subscribers any more. The end. 1. K. We regret to hear that D. K. is to go on an experimental trip for bis paper but yet we can iu this issue give him a round of pruiwe and say he has been one of the rarest of the rare, everyoue is foudi.f bim. We imagine his father was like bim and his mother also, although iu this e lrly life they were attached to their b iv with that love that cannot be surpassed. His love for his mother- was equally as great, ns he-was watched closely day by day in order that be may become good. He now sees it for himnelf and has turned his braiu fx. ways of intelligence, good qharaoter and as to his capabtli- "ties are wouderfuf.

Commencements are now in vndii g the town and our cities dissipation nre such in compos ing tho mind of ability to be at ense. Itefore this great event tnecitywus nhve with election and jiolit icians, Mayors and Stale orators. Then we have Civil court nnd even the Federal court people are now paying more ittpntion to the education of the young ns they eon look back yenrs gone by. We find but. some result of time wasted of a thorough education. Old men are umciI up aod some are not en tirely nccurate enough for the position held from fathers whom hove i ither died or liecome dis able. Our young men have a desire lj please themselves than with what they call fun rutlier than lenrn every detni! of its best ud vnutttgs. Look at i ur boys in our own places und the gewml idea i no inclination to vork nor to re lieve ol hers ami what hi - e we got to show forii? Simply a big boy In father's boots having, nn r Hppenriiuce to hmk whII and In come well iuformed in their esti mation but if asked to exp'ain how these things can be they answer nil iu play und left lack ing iu education.

E's schooll days weresevere andovercrowded iu his time. The teachers in many cases were strict ami crosseu nun heavily till atlust he made up his mind to tuke,i onlltw Knglisb languages nad leave Out all foreign languugew , He had no eommeuceaient nor uonc of these things that schouW have todav and all his teachers wore very strict. He weut to boarding school aud day schools was taught at home aud abroad, he seemed to like some books and was compelled to leave school at au early age. We have experimented upon the best of teachers nud cominaud big prices for our schools. Yet we cull it commeiicemeut wbeu our colleges are mors of iuterest iu Hum bull, foot ball aud rowing (or match's instead calling it ducat ion and pay our teachers the honest money they have earned. This is what you call education and pretend to study, but dout. i We having seen a good dsej of this from effect of other tekoeis and the general idea, howmriey has been expended for out educa tion and then wont imjro' o it why We might just ns f '' ' guoraut all our lives an . . education merely for ,t I Ai not believe iu excuwr minds of scholars at.the I ed time of cloeiup: or acbool sessiontf (t a 1 vi time to beconrw'3',oiipi: ing back and a t rrib! ment In goip ia good in ita vVvAi I 'duties are to l e oortor very bard to constrain them. The next is Graduation and then marriage generally follows. So after that ourtroe education is complete and we go out in life with various ideas what one shall expect. Generally speaking is some broad hints of how education is now-a-days to what it was when some of our fathers were boys. Tim rule may apply to some who are now making their mark in the world. But to the uneducated let it be understood that fun is far more needed iu their education than larius or fortune. D. E. HOME THINOri I). K. NKVKR HEARD OK HAD. A dium-r at flattery Park.

It has in Feb. 17 lH91k when my first attention was drawn to lieroms a newspapear man and to own a paper of my own. I came to it inn rf-BiOrkabl ay, yet it seems to le a pleasure to a and so I ran I he tyiik. I met an elderly man w ho whin ed to have a struggle to get on in the world by the name of Mr. William Ward who the was a jaoi axf the Y. Si. C A. Yet he bad jremarkabht spirits and was good so I took compassion upon bim that one day I asked bim if h would give we a few extracts in starting a news pa per. He was very much pleased at the idea and wanted Ut know how 1 thought of bim or even his wri tings. Well I said I did not care to ifo to a bitr exoeasw an the higher grades) in society, and 1 thought we could ge op a paier ourselves at a very little eapeuee. Mr. Ward was a circuit rider as a minister, and though be was in telligent in bis way, it.occured to me he could do me good., W ere successful tor the time being. Ws spent two or three days in planning the work for a uews pa per and the lHof Feb. 1801 bad our first newspaper. I the Editor and Ward the business manager aud we started! out with ideas of prosperity and we soon had a circularion of 200 su fanci ers, the paper at that time was called the Carolina Cileansr. ij$aaa.theu 25vta.a year. 9tgl 1 lof bard,bi ? . f wot !''' tl i ' rrwuZ4c two tuoutne -altsu Sni' . -....! per stopped and iu AprtU-t i&'-'-L', we got it a going, wheaalloia sudden, a sudden change came. Some one wrote aie they would get me out quicker pocjl b'tter alone, but 1 aoou lowwi out that these people were aoti.rsUallw n- it waa foolish to watt t Time rolled on, my paxtuH Mr. Ward at that time, and by bawd lug too luauy irons in toe nre that 1 was losing my interest. Upon my ability I gave the pa per away aud charged nothing that was time lost, but yet the paper kept ou and gaining a lit tie every time it waa published. 0a the 25 of October 1891 the paper started up again by me alone this ia the beat idea, D. E. has the management of tho pa per, no oue evn down ber ia the pathway of life Not. 21 1891 the Gleaner waa out again, the circulation at that time waa 1Q0O which D. E, fol ded himself deli vered 2d copiee in person. Itt Nov. 25 1891, 100 opies were delivered by mail and 5t) in person in asuevuie. The eecopd eddition was pub-1 lisbed in December. He had cal led at some of the leading bots and great talk has gathered about him, upon the mercies of the public to such nn extent his line on prominent men for sub scribers. He does not complain for bis actions speak louder than words. Many papers have been pub lished, but how are they condne- ted by the majority of men. Simply on credit, time alone is a poor rule, pay as ws go and run no bills. II yon have no money don't order. It is bard bnt when once known before the mind of men, it will be a future to go by in future. What is the Gleaner today tu what she was three year ago and yet she cannot be downed. For many attempts have Keen made to put her ont of existence, but she comes back' when leant ex pected, all the same. She wits one robbed of her rights by a South CarolinaTSham came op here on a visit and re turned and published in bis name and that D. E. then wan out ot existence. The Gleaner theu had the same of the Monthly Glean er by D. E. request and not but a short time she was haunted to dath by jealousy upon story within of the event in married kfw ud it did not pLase a certain party who thought I watt writing about them aud th Gleaner was burned up, aild the fid owing year the Gl- aner came L.n again aud her name was ebaugsd to Fullers G saner, he made heavy steps to progress aud. at last (ell into maturity wit h other papwra in our city. Atbnee took xepf lous but the Illustrious Editorof the Nsws and Hotel Reporter, Natt S. Rogers published in Asheville about the time the Gleaner was on ber second year iu circulation yet she has uot changed her idea as she is romantic and managed, in a very much different than auy newspaper ever was. But she surpassed all papers iu a way, for she gets to some places that other papers doe not get. Yet as a rale editors do not care to indict oa each other's paper a a rule, but the G leaner thinks U she has the right idea outside of AauevUte and the best of method, aos would make oueof the beet papers a golnjf.but her style is ao diSWiesjf thaa Ut fraantl run of swwgprs It m very hardT lunafif a v4 ' t" e I,.:. for . . take a irTc 4oiT est iu mw.liV'rt BO Co;,.. 6 with us ftndn7waiftUl3ar aJ better each time it ootnt-ri exi t and the Gleanor ia our owsjC -"' The are the gwawrnl i--aa h tba Gleauer rt'.-J -wIa- diffl- tt a or Kyi Hero ia aUitt t we oi. now up ia tne wotiA .wh"::fot hia auoces in Ufo and hstwill not tail to call on fa a he paasea on the literary work, of journalism.'

The two papers have had considerable power ever each o'her, but, it ia not Ions; to last.
