The existence of a singular town is brought to notice by the introduction of Senator Mailory o' Florida of a bill to provide public schools, one for white, the other for colored, children i I the town of Warrenton, Fla. The reference of the bill to the ecretarv of (lie Navy for his opinion on its merits is ap parently unusual and unneces sary. but it i;» really highly proper, as th facts about War renton show. At the close of the Civil War the business of the navy yard at Pensacola was considerable, and the number of employes was large. Many of the per sons working in the yard '•squatted" upon unoccupied land comprised within the na val reservation, and obtained permission from the depart ment to build homes thereon. The number of homes builders increased even after the tem porarv activity of the navy yard was succeeded by the lethargy that came over the navy and lasted for nearly twentv year-. In time, the group of homes assumed proportions ot it town ; then it took a name, and be came Warr n The oHice Department recognized i s rights, gave it a postoilice, which later it made a raoney- I order ollice. ami now the town . iias some 300 houses, six [churches, several stores and a i population of more than 1,500 | persons. The commander of the Pensa cola navy yard rules the town ; ' the inhabitants pay no taxes, ! and have no votes. The place is kept in order by the captain ,of the ward, and "policed" as the rest of the naval reserva tion is The bureau of yards land docks installed and main | tained the electric lights and j the sewer system, though very : few of the e .iployes are em ! ployed by the government. By i far a greater part of those who thus enjoy 'he nation's care are j engaged in iishiug or in farm ; ing for a living. Now Senator Mailory thinks that in a dition to. providing light, clean streets and sew erage of the most improved type, the guv. rnnient should also provide schools for the child ren of tlie untaxed dwellers in Warrengton. and accordingly introduced his bill.—Selected.

I enclose a printed list of bofrks adopted for use in the public schools by the State Text-Book Commission and of prices and exchange prices of these books. I desire to call attention to the fact that the use of these hooks in the pub lic schools will be compulsory, under the law, after July 1, 1902, and that, if old books now in use are not exchanged be fore that time, the exchange prices, according to the con tract entered into with the pub lishers l>y the State-Book Com mission, can not be taken ad vantake of by patrons of the public schools. I wish to urge vou, therefore, to send written official notice to all the teachers in your county urging them to notify all children and patrons of their schools, aud to give notice to all the people of your county through your county pa per urging them to take ad vantage of these exchange -prices before July 1,1902- If the patrons of the public schools fail to avail themselves of these low exchange prices before the beginning of the next school year, they will find themselves under the hard necessity of be ing compelled to buy new books at the full price, and their old books will be left as useless property on their hands. This would mean, of course, a great loss to the people of the State and a decided gain to the pub-, lishers. Any book that has been used or could have been used by any child in the pub lic schools of North Carolina before July 1, 1902, may be ex changed for a new book of like grade upon the same subject at the price quoted. 1 send you under separate cover 300 copies of this letter. Send a copy to every teacher and school committeeman. Very truly yours, J. Y. JOYNKR, Supt. of Public Instruction. HE KNEW, When General Sherman said "war isJieli" he knew that war was—when he made it. Page 494, of the serial volume 79 of the Federal Record, is credited with ihe following order of General Sherman, sent October 2'.), 18C4, to General Watkins : "Oannot you send over about Fairmont and Adairsville, burn ten or twelve houses of known secessionists, kill a few at random and let them know that it will be repeated every time a train is fired on from licsaca to Kingston? The expression ''kill a few at random" has a fine flavor of barbarity that would do credit to an Apache. , On October 19 of the same year he wrote to General Grant t details of his method of con verting war into 'hell:'' "1 am perfecting arrangements * * * * to break up the railroad in front of Dulton, including the city of Atlanta, and rush into Georgi.t, break up all its rail road and depots, capture its horses and negroes and make desolation everywhere." Sher man and Sheridan have the distinction of having set the hand on the dial of civilization back two centuries and fixed a lower standard of conduct in war than has been reached by any civilized nation since 18G5. —Baltimore Sun. This signature is on every bo* of the genuine Laxative Bromo=Quiaine Tablet* the romody that cures a colU i«» one (ly What the Factories. Do. The richest states in the Un ion are manufacturing states; the richest cities are manufac turing cities. The richest com munity is not the one which produces the most crude mater ial suitable for manufacture, but the one which converts that material into some useful arti cle or articles for which there is a demand. The South pro duces annually about 9,000,000 bales of cotton. A bale of this cotton converted into ordinary cotton goods would be worth three times as much as the raw lint. Tharwould make the cot ton worth $900,000,000 instead of $300,000,000. —Wilmington Morning Siar. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.

Henry Ward Beecher was wont to say with thrilling power that the most scenic thing upon the earth was the J fact that every man on it is trying to succeed by crushing if need be every other. This is a bold thought. We shrink from contemplating it. There is truth in it nevertheless. The masterful passion in most men is money making. The in terests of others as provided for in the law of love cuts a small figure. Whatever stands in the way must be trampled down. If a school teacher gets in the way of the play and progress of this passion lie must be dis placed, however many his ex cellencies of character, scholar ship or aptness to teach. If a preacher is in the way he must go, though no reason can be ad vanced that is worthy of men tion. Our Saviour must leave Gadara because he is interfer ing with business. The roll of fools is a long one.—Lumber ton Robesonian. Don't Start Wrong' Don't start the summer with a lingering cough or cold. We all know what a summer cold is. It's the hardest kind to cure.

Popularity Means Profit. The popular journal is the most successful as a business venture, says Newspaperdom. It is the country newspaper that molds and controlls the great bulk of public opinion. It is the country newspaper that checks or balances its city contemporary. It is the country newspaper that finds its way to the remote mountain hamlet, and is read by every reading member of the back woods family by the light of a pine- knot fire. It is the country ; newspaper that leads the mountaineer farmer to town to vote for John Smith for Gov ernor. because he saw the latter was the champion of the country editor. He saw it in his country paper—in print—and it must be all right. He has never yet been fooled or led astray by his country paper—his confidence therein is unshaken. And right here is the secret to success in country neswpaper work. First, get the confidence of your peo ple ; second, keep it. OASTOniA. SI THE KIND YOB Have Always Bought Tlie Southern Railway.
