Tbii reat loatitatioaof Learning, which la the pride and glory of tbe Hute, certainly deier?e tbe beat and highest consideration at the hands of the whole people, and of the Oeneral Assembly in particular Ool a few years ago the enroll- msnt at the UnltersitT was abont two hundred, while according to tbe report of President Venable there are today 501 stadents taking ad raa tage of the splendid opportunity of obtaining adcqaate educational equipment to fit them for tbe great struggles of life. No State can achiere greatnes or become a power in the development of her resources if her people are not provided with proper means for securing an education. Money eaa not he invested, with greater safety, than in "immortal minds." In affording proper facili ties for the promotion of education we make a safe investment that will pay handsome dividends for all time. We may erect monuments to perpet uate the fame and greatness of our noble citiiens, but there can be no nobler duty than that of building an educational system that will "defy the coroding tooth of time." and give to the poor children of the Htate a ohanoe to equip themselves for Iheir life-work. act a stringent and effective anti trust law. Toe proof of tbe fai are i shown now when anottur a tempt is to nude in that direction.

Tuey will have to pass some sort ot an an ti-trust bill in order to fool the po pie again. The trnst evil eau largely D re moved by tbe action of Htate l-gu latnret if they are honest and it. cara in their desire to remove this eincer which is so rapidly dis roy insr manv of the treat industries ol r m tbe country. An anti-trust bill ean be s? fram ed that t will furnish tbe r, m dy. but the serious question ic: on it be enected into lawt Tne shrewd and competent law yers, representing tbe great corpo rations and combinations would be on band to attack certain provisions and before the bill became a lw it would be so amended that the au thor would net recognize it. Far thermor, tbe victory of the present anarchistic redshirt element is due, in a great measure to corporate in flaences. The machine demagogues raised the "nigger domination" cry aid the corporations furnished the mney to supply such literature bsaring on the race issue as would most effectu ally arouse prejudice, and in this way they won the victory and g it in their work, This explains why the anti trust law of 1899 was such a failure.

A Most Excellent Family Remedy. THE LAW MAKERS. (Continued from First Page.) Educational progress in the State has, Indeed, been slow, but it is grat-l time, all of the people some of the ifying now to see tne revival ol in terest in the matter in every quarter of the State. Dr. Venable, in his report, says that "the University is emphatically the hops of the poor boys of thu State," and that "our one hundred and twenty five are working their way through in whole or in Dart." Indeed the University, in recent years, has furnished a great oppor tunity for young men with no means or with limited means, to get an ed ucation. and the fact that over 125 are now, by their own efforts, ob taining an education, speaka volumes in favor of the present management. Year by year the enrollment is in creasing, yet practically the same appropriation is made now that ws made when tne Institution had ab iut half its present enrollment. Tne fact is the University ot North Caro lina is today one of the strongest in stitutions of the South, though it is doing its great work on the least capital ot any similar institution in the whole country. Dr. Venable nrges that the teach ing force be increased in order that more thorough and effeotive work may be done. This is a reasonable suggestlen in view ot the fact that there are more students at the Uni versity now than eye r before. At present the classes are too large and nnwieldly, and it is impossible for a professor to do his work with that thoroughness which is so essential As showing the niggardliness with which the State deals with its greatest Institution of learning, we quote the following from President Venable's report: "The State now appropriates $25, 000 annually to the University. Fif teen years ago the appropriation with the land grant fund amounted to 927.000 and there were time, but you can not fool all the poople all the time." and this raot the legislature should bear in mmd. They cannot cover up their mis deeds and failures by howling "aig ger" "nigger" any more for that is sue is as dead as Julius Oeaar. The people will be satisfied with no hing less than an effeotive anti trust law. DISGRACEFUL. POLITICS. ! Last week when the resolution Inviting Dr. Curry, agent of the Peabody Fund, to address the Leg islature was pending, a few of the members of that body arose and severely assalld Dr. Curry, alleg ing that he had lobbied with mem bers of the National House of Rep resentatives in the Interest of Con gressman Richmond Pearson's con test Both Dr. Curry and Mr. Pear son indignantly denied the charge and the next day these hot-headed partisans, feeling keenly the injus tice done, made apologies publicly for their bitter, vindictive and par t.san speeches. 'Tls a pity Indeed that some men occupying official positions of hon or, trnst and responsibility, are so small and narrow-minded that thty frequently make ugly spectacles of themselves ! Dr. Curry was not Invited to ad dress the Legislature on a partisan subject, but on the great and absor bing question of public education, and if his assailants had been gov erned by any sense of propriety they would have spared the distin guished educator such an un war ran teed, unjust and false attack. Away with all such narrowmlnd edness, and llttlenss I bach conduct was a most dis graceful exhibition of peanut par tisan politics. North Carolina can the conferees has been agreed to by the House and i now pending in the Senate, with every prospect that It will be finally enacted before the present week has passed. During the coming week the IIoumo will be engaged principally In considering the poet-office and other appropriation bills. The post office bill is likely to lead to consid erable discussion owing to the omis sion from the bill of the provision for pneumatic tubes. There is also a strong effort being made in the House to press the consideration of ttie Hill bill, which is designed to maintain the pari'y between gold and silver under the existing gold standard. Owing to the fact that appropria tion bills originate in the House of liepresentatives, the necessary busi ness of the session of Congress is probably more advanced in that body than it is in the Senate. There is also greater latitude of discus-don In the Senate, which prevents a dis position of the public business as ex peditiously as it is taken care of in the House. Only two of the great appropriation bills have been passed by the Senate. The Indian appro priation bill Is at present pending in that body, and will probably be dis posed of in the next two or three days. The bill passed by the House of Representatives reducing taxation under the Revenue bill has been re ported by the Senate Finance Cm mittee. and Senator Aldrich, chair man of that committee, has given notice that he expects the Senate to take it up at an early day. Tae ship subsidy bill, tne pet measure of San- . - a a ator a anna, is aiso panning in me Senate, and has the right of way when appropriation bills are not un der consideration. This measure, however, is likely to provoke more discussion than its friends ever con templated. The opposition to it is determined, and the prospects for its passage are very dim. Saould those who have it in charge endeav or to force its consideration, therj is every probability tht a filibuster would be instituted against it. Tne Grout bill in regard to the manufact ure and sale of oleomargarine, a bill which commands aluost univt-isal support in tbe agricultural districts of the country, is nearly in a condi tion to be placed before tne Senate, and no doubt, a strong tffort will be made to secure its passage, with good cLaneeS of success It seems as if the Nicaragua canal proposi tion will have to give way to other matters, and go over until the next session of Congress. Senator Mor gan, of Alabama, in charge cf this measure, has made every possible ef fort to have it become a law. There is a general opinion, howayer, that its consideration shonld admit the action of the British government on the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, which is now in the hands of the British cab inet, and this vu w will in all proba bility prevail.

MOBJC JUDGES. It seems to be a part of the ma chine programme to increase the number of judges in the 8tate. The people who pay the taxes to support these officers may have some thing to say about extravagance la ter on. If all the judges faithfully dis charged the duties there would be no large dockets to be continued from term to term. The ballot-stuffing machine raised a great "hue and cry" because the Fasionists increased the number of magistrates in the Btate. Oa every stump they charged that . additional offices were created for some "hun gry Fasionists." It should be re membered that there was no addi tional cost to the people on account ot the increased number of magis trates, whereas four additional J adg s, with salaries at $2,750 each, will cost the Bute $11,000.

Mr. Spalnhour from Burke coun ty has Introduced a bill in the Souse to ' restore srood eovernment in Mitchell county." What Mr. Spain hour means by "good government" Is for the legislature to aDDoint a more county officers in Mitchell Co so as to place the Democrats in con trol of that county. Mr. Spalnhour was elected So licitor in 1894 by the Populists and Republicans of the mountain coun try and then for him to turn over to the Democratic party and come to the legislature and ask for the gov ernment to be taken out of the hands of the Populists and Repub licans of Mitchell county, because they succeeded in electing their of fleers notwithstanding the rascali ty they had to contend with, is base Ingratitude to say the least. we nave received a copy of the "North Carolina Year Bok,n pub lished by the News and Observer Raleigh, N. 0., which contains abont 160 pages.

Sknate There were no bills of special importance introduced in the Senate. The bill that seems to be of most interest was the one intro duced by Mr. Warren from Jones to gressbytbe President, and strong- er of capitol and public buildings I amend the Code in relation to the ly recommending that steps b j taken to supersede the military eovern ment of the islands by a civil gov ernment, has aroused great interest. and much speculation is indulged in as to what action Congress will take in regard to the matter. Mny think tnat ii something is not done before Congress finally adjourns in the line suggested by the report, an extra session of Congress will be inevita ble. It can be stated, however, that an extra session is not desired by the administration, and, therefore, some proposition looking to the establish ment of a civil government in the Philippine Islands may be looked lor during tne present session. Oa Mondav, February 4'h, the Senate and House will meet in the hal of the House of Representa tives, and exercises commemorative of the one hundredth anniversary of the assumption by John Marshall of the office of Chief Justice of the United States, will be held. The president will attend these exarcises, aad hey will be ver? impressive. 8ome alarm is becoming evident in Republican circles Owing to the enormous appropriations which have ren made by the two sessions of the 56 h Congrets. Cnalrman Cannon, of te Appropriations Committee of the House estimates that the appro priations for the present session will reach the enormous total of $800. 000,000 The appropriations for the last session ot the 56;h Congress ag gregate about the same amount, so that the total amount appropriated during the two years will not fall short of a billion and a half dollar f, and some even figure that they will reach the stupendous figure of a bil lion and three quarter dollars. Tnis fact is sufficient to arouse tbe fears of the Republican managers, and a policy of economy is accordingly be ing broachfd. Senator Towne, of Minnesota, ad and grounds, the House.
