The annual entertainment of tb
Clio Literary Society which each
year falls on the evening f Feb.,
22, occurred this year on that date'
however it was under very Uufavor-
able auspices, but when the hour
had arrived and the participants of
the entertainment were marshaled
into the chapel a large and appre
ciative audience greeted them. . The
Droerara was a varied one. Thf
first ittm brought down the house,
and was encored. It was a duet
with accompaniment by the orches
tra rendered by Messrs. K. C. and
Edward-Wfiite, of Norfolk, Va.
Then followed an oration, the Pride
of American Citizenship, by J. A
Dickey, Jr. J. W. Barrett, Jr. of
Xorfolk, then sang a solo and was
followed in turn by R. A. Campbell
who read a Journal of incidents and
happenings around the college of a
humorous character. C. A. Griffin
of Spring Hope, X. C , delivered
an oration on Patriotism. R. A.
Campbell then gave a feasant ren
dition of a cornet solo which was
followed by J. B. Walker in a hum-
I forous recitation, entitled Major!

crossed intellectual arms in warm
combat, at the conclusion ol which
time the judges rendered their de
cision in favor of the AS. A med
al was also given for the young man
delivering the best oration. This
medal went to J. S Lincoln.
The Glee Club rendered excel
lent music for the occasion.
The President of the debate was
S. C. Harrell, whose opening and
closing remarks were much appre
ciated. The secretary was J. W.
Barrett, Jr. The marshalls were
J. F. West, chief, U- T. Whitley
and P. C. White.
Al! in all it was a very agreeable
occasion and spoke well for the So
ciety which they represented. All
who took part wore full dress.
Next Tuesday evening, March 2,
the Ladies Aid Society of the local
church here will give an entertain
ment in the college auditorium for
the benefit of the building fund
which has been started fcr the pur
pose of erecting a Christian church
at this place. It will give a play
entitled the c?pinster8, Return and a
treat is in store for 'those who attend.
' Widespread interest among pol
iticians' we are told, has been a-
roused by a magazine article by W
J. Bryan entitled "The Future of
the -Democratic Party.'' The Demo
cratic party, it may be remarked
parenthetically, will have no future
as lone as he hangs around its
neck. "It is more than possibh
it is even probable," he' declares,
"that the House of Representatives
to be elected in 3910 will be Dem
ocratic" Except for him it would.
He tells the president-elect that he
"cannot possibly satisfy the expec
tations of both elements of the Re
publican party." How, he asks,
"can he escape conflict either with
the Republican leaders or with the
Republican voters of the Mississ
ippi Valley?" Which would seem
to be Mr. Tafts business. ' "In dis
cussing the tendency toward reform
legislation," we are told further,
Mr. Bryan says:
"The Democratic party is in sym
pathy with the growing demand for
remedial legislation; it is therefore
rowing with the tide, for the tide is
onward. Democrats, recognizing-
o -J
the responsibility of their position,
and strong in the conhdence they
feel in the righteousness of their
cause, are prepared to wage a win
ning fight against an opposition al
ready panic-stricken.
This is the same sort of flub-dub
that the gullible were fed on during
last year's campaign a panic-stricken
Republican party and a united
Democracy. The result showed
that, as-usual, The Peerless had the
facts exactly reversed.
The comment of The Portsmouth
Star upon all this fustian is that
"influential Democrats declare Mr.
Bran s article to be the most im
portant! political paper printed since
the election ot Mr. Taft last No
vember." A good many years ago
we lost faith in the judgement of
the "mfluentail Democrats." and
there is nothing in this latest ex
pression from them to warrant a re
newal of it. 'The fact about the
business is that the only important
political paper that Mr. Bryan
n , t i
couia print now wouia De one ac
knowledging that he is down and
out and the only service he could
render the Democratic. party would
be to take his beak from put its
heart and take his form from off its
door.
Business Men in Politics.
Kansas City Journal.
The greatest blunder, perhaps,
that the American people could be
guilty of is thir failure to utilize in
their public affairs the talents and
experience of the great captains of
industry, and, in fact, the men who
have won the highest distinction in
the learned professions in science
aud in every realm of work. The
uuthiuking masses are taught a
most mischevious and harmful les
son by the demagogues who inveigh
unceasingly against the grtat corpo
rations and all who serve them.
The ablest and most capable men in
the nation should be in the nation's
service. But as a consequence of
this distrust and suspicion taught
by the nemagogues, the great cor
porations have almost a monoply of
the best brains of the country, while
the people must content ' themselves,
as a ru'e, with the service of a sec-oad-rater,
men of mediocer ability
who have never been able to achieve
any great measures of success in
their own affairs and who, obvious
ly, are unable to render any Letter
service for their country. This is
manifeotly a poor policy for the peo
ple to pursue. They ought to have
the lest puLlie servants that can be
had, and thev would have them but
'bi this absurd prejudice which we
have alluded to, and the picayunish
parsimony which is practiced in
nMi affairs of paying euch poor
- lories tlat the best mtn eannot
afford to accept ihe offices.- -
Didn't Find the Senator.
"Whenever I see the name of
Senator Tillman in print," said an
old newspaper man, "I am remind
ed of a little incident that occurred
several years ago when I was the
editor of a little paper in a South
ern city.
"Late one night a South Carolina
correspondent wired that he had
failed to get a desired interview be
cause the Senator had taken a train
for Washington, but that we might
catch him ourselves when the train i
passed through our city. Hastily
searching a time table, I found that
the train mentioned was due in a
few minute. There being no oth
er reporter at hand, I seized 'Bud'
Lunkly, a raw reporter fresh from
the country, told him to meet tt.is
train at the statiou and get some
sort of expression from the Senator
on a subject then of much impor
tance. ' Some time later Bud strolled
calmly in and informed me that af
ter a p rs'n il search of every car
on the train he. had failed to find
Senator Tillman.
"Do you mean that you looked
into all i he sleeping car berths, Bud?
said I.
"Yes, that's what I done,' said
Bud.
"But Bud I exclaimed in con
sternation, weren't a good many of
these berths occupied by ladies?
"Sure' said Bud.
"But what did you do when you
found a lady who 1 ad r't ir.l ?
"When 1 busted the curtH' ii upen
and looked in and a woman jumped
up and screamed, I took off my hat
aud says: 'That's all right, lady,
you ain't the man I'm looking for!'
