This will do more j to stimulate education in the State and remove the stigma of illiteracy resting upon our people than any thing else. Preach against it as they will and misrepresent it as they may but these are facts the truth of which cannot be controverted. As the hum-bt-rtoM .'obesoiiian well says: The keenest spur to move the ruas-es of the people in this State to ward education ever devised is to be found iu the Constitutional amend ment, on which the people are to vote in August. Kvery boy in the State now thirteen years old has, of course, ight years until he is twenty-one years of age. That year, 100, the amendment to the Constitution, which will then be the law, will say to him unless you have learned to read and write von cannot vote. The time, eight years, is all that any reasonable mau con id ask. If a boy cannot learn to read and write in ejght years, he is certainly wanting in the mental force needed to qualify him to be a voter. There are to be schools enough for everybody. In that k-nirth of time there will be two ami two-thirds years of s.-hoo! time. Nobody can plead the excuse that educational facilities nre wanting. We have at la-t fallen, we repeat, upon a scheme to wipe out the sting of illiteracy that lias been borne so long by the State we love. ALLTKOL'BLEON FARMS OR PLAN TATIONS HAS VANISHED. 'I he Constitutional amendment has brought about a better feeling in the Mate. In absolute and unques tionable control, the white men feel the responsibility of protecting the negro in ai! his rights. The white people of North Carolina, regardless of party, will miss an opportunity to put their politics on a higher plane if thev do not adopt the amendment. '! iiev owe it to themselves and their children to do what ve have done.

The political conditions of the South, especially in States like North Caro lina where there is such a lare il literate negro Vote, grow worse" with each year. It does not take an expert to observe this State of alTairs, but the most casual observer ea.siiv see? that the negro vote is a curse "to our fair Southland ami that the onlv remedy for this evil is the disfran chisement of this ignorant vote. The Baltimore Sun has a member of the staiT of that paper making a tour of the South, and in viewing The situation a few days ago had the fol lowing to say. which shows that many Republicans will join the Democrats in blotting out this curse forever: In Virgiuia. as in everv other Southern State, the Republicans are cursed by the negro vote. In everv campaign the race .piestion arises and instca.l of a campaign Fiuufht out on State issues or national issues the one question uppermost is that of white supremacy against negro domination. Of course in States with a large negro vote this solidities white mcu in one party. The best thing that could happen to the Republican party iu the South would be the disfrarM-c-ment of the negro. Until : i ;4i is done there is no hope in Vi-iia for instance, of building up a stron -minority party, the need of. which U as greatly felt here as elsewhere." Durham Ileralit. SUPPORTS THE AMENDMENT. ! Prof. W. F. Gill, of Trinity College, i Writes a Letter Defining His Posi- lion on This Important Question j No Mistaking Where He Stands j However He Alay Have Been flis- j represented. j The following letter from dur tal- e:ited vounf countvnian. Prof. W. F. j CAD, explains itself: i Di-niiASf. N. C, May 18th. V.)')'K j W. K. Gary. Henderson, .V . My dear Sir: Reports have reached tne, from sources; which I can not distrust, that I am bein quoted as opposing the ("oiistutionu! iiuieiidment, which is now ciuimiri public attention, and fuither more, that I represent the attitude of Trinity Co! bye on that quesliou. As long as only my individual opinion was bein; u.-ed, I was not disposed to pre sume that the public cared what I thought but since the college hits become involved, it is plainly my duty lo pre vent its being misrepresented through nie. Therefore I take the liberty of writing to you. as the leader in Vance county of the movement for the amendment. A college can be said to belong to a party only if its members are forced to agree and to act, wit li some one influence. e'j., its president. There is absolutely no sueti restraint upon individual, opinion at this college. To find where I runty stands on any given question would Iits-cssi rare n CiiiiVit-s if faculty and student-body. Aot having lone this, I deny that anything I may nay represents any other than my o.vn convictions. Right or wrong, thev are mv own. If thev ar worthy to be quoted they are worthy to bequoied cor rectly. I feel sure that my friends have been honest in giving their impressions of what I said, but those impressions are so far from my rrai position that I must do lii.Vrteif t he just ice to explain. Some months ago I made the state ment, iu the presence of so.ne of your to'.viis'uen. that "T doubted the expedi ency of the amendment as Democratic policy." Can i hut fairly be interpreted as opposition to the measure'.' If so then I Hill supposed to be able to see the right only through partisan eves For many ears, Nort ii Carolina like nth r ."south ern agricultural States gave it solid vote for the nominees of the Democratic party. The opening of the ballot lothe emancipated slaves made lliit solid South almost ironclad, since the new vote was giv. n almost, or quite, wholly to tiie K publican party. So it has re mained d-spite changed coadi! io:;s: but w ill t his continue longer? The amend ment proposes to remove this incubus of an irresponsible' t ' z-nsij i 1 1. .Naturally the Republican party wii! feel the loss more immediately and more keenly. Hut North Carolina is rapidly griev ing from a purely agricultural into a slate wit n large niaiiubict uriiitr !::! Manufacturing states a;e Ibpu! states. Is it lint a r -asoiiable mi; OS. an tion that t he r: mo .a! of t He: it will give to the white citizens t ! e-ii-- d opportunity to readjust the dominant parties niong more ra t ion ii lines? I'ne question of supremacy in the Stale will be. I think. a more aid more ddficuir on to foresee as t he ve.us go by. Ib.it has I he Demoeral ic party no surer founda- tion on which to chiiui slice opposition of t he negro vot so and therefore I am ,i f). ss t h.in t ? i believe moerat. If she has not, then justice demands cr downfall Again 1 am made to say tiiat tic amendment will disfranchise more whites than negroes. I ilid say tlfc.it I feared this would eventually he theeu.s-'. Why? For thirty years, since the reorganiza tion, the public sehoo's have been avail able to children of both races. At limes it has seemed to me that t he parents of the bite children in rural districts have shown a luineiituhle lack of interest iu aducatioa while the negro child, for rea sons more or less commendable, has been encouraged to, use the opportunities at hand. In Vance county for xauq !, o2 4 per cent, of the white children of school age vvie enrolled in the schools during the year ending .Imie :!Oih. LS'.tS. while f,;.S percent, of the colored school population were on t he school rolls. Hearing t h's differ'-nee in mind. I feared tie- ultimate result of the educational feature oT tie- amend ment mieht be to stimulate the :emo but to di.-coiirage th white . hlid. Hut even should t his be the result, no hoi, est man could oppose the emendim nt for such ren-aius. A further study of school statistics shows that t he tlitteieliee is more appa r ent than real. fur. although the percent age of school population enrolled is smaller b it- white rlmu fur lcgro schools, tin- percentage of attendance is higher .; per cent, against -IX per cent. Turning from the county to th" Scute, the percentages are: White enrollment K2.J pel white school pupuiat iun. nt. .Negrn enrollment !. per cent. t ne gro school population. White average attendance cent, of white enrollment. .Negru average attendance celli. ol negro e!;"ili;iieit. These figures show briefly per pel then that. (le.sjnte appearances tne white chi i still leads in theserious purpose of t he schools, and the amendment should be an educational stimulus to greater and more general guod from uur common school system. Hut I repeat that even if my feats should prove true. I should heartily favor t he amelliililelit. and I may be allowed to state blieily three reasons fui in it: mv faith 1 . As a result of its educational clause. the citizenship of tie-State will be vastly improved and there will nu lunger be ri unite miieiiiiii uie iu oe used ,- uu scrupulous ultice-seekers. It is nut unrea suitable to liujiethat withiua generation, every voter will know the fundamental principles uf uur gnvei anient, and thus t he vote of the lowliest will carry with it the added Weight uf ilitelisecoi! vie) io!i. - The elimination uf the t;egr, ;1s a solid Republican vote will alluw party lilies so to be readjusted that every vnter may express his honest convictions on questions of governmental policy, i am too much of a Democrat to see in' this the downfall uf the party. Its foundation are laid too dis p and too solid to be thus easily shaken. Hut a mure w holesome balance will be maintained between the two parties and in this fact it is easy to see a hea't hful state government assured. k Thesedesirableetids will be achieved without serious injustice to any body of our citizens. The disfranchised voter w ill be welcomed back as an enlarge,!, enlightened man in a. very short time if he bur apply himself, l' heard a negro tell a Durham audience of his own color that -they cured not for the amendment so long as theirschools w mv kepto en to them." 1 will nut insult the white child of lg years by suggesting that he will not be able to vote w hen he shall reach the proper age. Many a young buy thus forced to taste uf the new mental life will fH-isevere until he has completed our wnoie system of schools, cunt even universities. and For these reasons I heartily endm-se this struggle of the party for a "purer and mure intelligent government, uf the Stale first, then of the nation so far as one State may affect the nation. Surely; the party which thus invites a closer competitive Vote f.,r the sake uf the grit body of jieople it hoj.es to guide and to govern will deserveand will get a new lease of life, and having hnd its own nobler impulses quickened by the strung'.e will strive to richlv deserve its new honor. With assurances of cordial supj-ort in your fight to have our county record herself in favor of this proaress'ive and ennobling measure, i have tlie bonor to lourstaithfullv. W. F. (JILL.

In addition to that outlined last week, there are the textile s.hou! bill aitd the present law affecting certain insurance companies which ought to be take;; tip. The former (which passed the House by a. large majority. Ktid was never voted on in the Senate) should be passed. That provision of the existing law affecting in- I surance companies to such an extent us j to have driven from the State a few of j the very best life companies in America j one or two of which 1 know to have had the largest business in North Carolina of any probably, and numbered among the oldest and soundest and best managed in tlie world should be amended so as not to inflict this burden on thousands of the best people of the Stat" who are insured in these companies, to say nothing of our citizens who earned their living in North Carolina by working for these com panies. Vt the time the law was passed it was not designed and no one had an idea that any section o! it would attect insurance companies at ail. Hut it seems that thes" few companies were compelled to withdraw because of a conflict Ijetween their home charter or some by-laws or other unchangeable legal stipulation. It is not supposed that there could be any valid objection rrom any source to the modification alluded to. while it would bring considerable additional revenue into the State treasury, amount ing to thousands of dollars annually.
