Last week Mrs. Z. B. Vance

METHODIST CONFERENCE

gates and others wishing to at

NO COMPROMISE.
The Democratic party and its
leaders are fully satisfied of the
fact that a compromise with the
Populists will not be t-utertained
at the State convention or during
the coming campaign.
Experience has taught all good
Democrats that compromises and
conciliations weaken the party
instead of strengthening it.
There is only one way under
the sun to act, and that is to hoist
the red flag and war it out to the
knife. Draw the mark and "fight
like Trojans." The Populists
are a party of opposition and as
such they should be treated.
They are our confirmed enemies,
and as such, we should watch
them. It is one ot their pet
cries Jiat "they are Democrats
and have not left the party, but
the party has left them." It is
to be hoped that such a game will
be treated by all good Demo
crats with scorn and disgust.
To show that they themselves
are not desirous of conciliation,
it is a noted fact.that when offers
of peace have been made, such
are always treated lightly. There
is but one way to act, and that
is open warfare, 110 compromise,
no quarter.
Having a double enemy to
wage war against, it is more im
portant than ever that the party
should be thoroughly organized
and solidified. It is no time to
consult personal interests, or be
guided by selfish aims. Work is
to be done, and hard work at that.
We, as a party need the com
bined effort of all and must have
it to gain success. Southerner.
TO MEET AT MOREHEAD.
The State Superintendent of
Public Instruction, Hon. John C.
Scarborough, has selected Tues
day, June 26th, as the date for a
general meeting of all Count'
Superintendents in the State at
Morehead City during the Teach
ers' Assembly. This will be a
most important meeting and con
ference in the interest of the
public schools of the State, and
it is hoped that every County
Superintendent will be present
if possible. All proposed changes
in the school law will be fully
discussed and amendments there
upon will be prepared for the
consideration of the General
Assembly.in Raleigh this winter.
A large number of County Sup
erintendents have already signi
fied an intention to be present at
the meeting, and it is likely to be
one of the most useful and val
uable conference of school officers
ever held in the State.
A FINE SHOWING.
Wil. Messenger.
The South has done wonders
in education since 1870. The
war about closed most of the
colleges and high schools. The
common schools were shut up.
The wealth of the South and its
only basis of credid were swept
away. Since 1870, it has not
only recovered all it lost, but it
has made really a great advance
011 i860, in education. It has ex
pended from $40,000,000 to pos
sibly $60,000,000 in educating
the free 1 negroes and their
children. The Boston Traveller
rives this:
The amount paid out per pupil
in the different groups of States
is as follows:
North Atlantic division
North Central
Western
South Atlantic
South Central
$2,74
2.81
3 36
.89
94
Like many figures in the hands
of experts they tell lies or mis
lead. The figures quoted give
those only of common schools.
The Jacksonville Times- Union
says:
"Most of the schools of second
ary and higher grade iu the
South are private. More than
two-thirds of the pupils in these
schools in the South are in
private schools. Thus it will be
seen that this report ignores two
thirds of the secondary or higher
schools of the South, and onl
one-third of the schools of similar
grade at the North. No par
of the Union, and no country in
the world, compares with it in
institutions for the higher edu
. f -r- . 1
cation 01 wemen. 111 tne same
report quoted,beginning on page
673 of volume 2, is found a list
of the female colleees in the
United State.;. The South, with
one-third of the population, has
nearly three-fourths of the female
colleges'
This is instructive and makes
a marvellously fine showing: for
a people who were desolated bv
a war onen conducted witn a
spirit of vandelism, and left their
homes destroyed.their plantation
pillaged of everything in many
cases, and their wealth all
gone.

BICYCLE RIDING.
-
INJURIOUS EFFECTS OF RIDING IN
THE 15ENT POSITION.
There are some bicyle riders
in Edenton who sit erect in their
seats, but a majority of them do
not, and to these the following,
from high medical authority, is
commended :
Doctors seem to agree that
there is such a thing as bicycle
disease, and no one who sees a
rider bent iu two over his ma
chine, going along as if a prairie
fire or baud of wild Indians were
after him, will wonder at it. The
bent position which is assumed
by bicyclists, iu order to secure
the greatest amount of power
over their machines and to at
tain the highest degree of speed
while running them, is attended
with an unnatural flexion of the
spine, which appears in the re
gion of the back and causes not
only unsightliness in form, but
in boys of 14 years and under is
fraught with serious and possibly
fatal consequences. In those
over that age the result of the
stoop is to produce permauen
curvature of the spine and conse
queut deformity. It has also
malign effects on the heart, lungs
and other vital organs, the free
and natural working of which is
interfered with by the unuatura
form acquired.

THREE-HUNDRED MILES
IN-A ROW BOAT.
The Norfolk Virginian says:
The eccentric passenger who
came up with Capt. Jones on the
steamer Lucy, from Plymouth,
N. C, yesterday, was evidently
determined to get to Norfolk
without paying railroad fare. In
company with his valet he ac
complished, in a small open row
boat, the 300 miles distance be
tween Danville and Plymouth,
passing down the Dan river to
the Roanoke and thence to the
North Carolina sounds. He left
Danville on the 13th of March
and arrived in Plymouth on Sat
urday, June 9th, lacking only
four days of being three months
upon his strange journey. At
Plymouth he took passage on the
Lucy, the sound being too rough
for him even after Ii is passage of
the rapids iu the Dan and the
Roanoke. He carried his pro
visions and an old stove with
him iu his boat. He has often
before made trips iu strange
ways, tramping through the
mountains iu winter, and once
coming to Norfolk on a bicycle.
What his next venture will be is
not known, but it is unlikely that
he will return by the same route
he came.
SHARPEN YOUR TOOLS.
No mechanic will attempt to
perform a full day's work without
sharp tools, yet fanners will use
the same tools a whole year with
out sharpening them. It is as
important to keep the farm tools
in good order as it is to have a
sharp ax, as the better the con
dition of the tools and imple
ments the less effort is required
by the teams aud the better the
work is performed.
