Thomas E. Burke. THEORY AND PRACTICE. In M O. the Latter Generally Exposes the Falsity of the Former. Tlxr theory of municipal ownership Is that municipal corporations can do for the public at cost the service now iIoiih lv private comoratlona at a profit, savin- to the public the amount of the nrofit in reduced chartres. In the common practice of municipal ownership the city does for the public at increased expense, but for a lower price, what private corporations have been doing for a profit. Usually not only the prolit is absorbed in the In creased expense, but a continual an nual deficiency i covered up by In crease of the municipal debt and fail ure to provide out of earnings for de preciation of plant. I'.y the time the plant first Installed Is worn out the city, unless very rich and st:oM? is apt to be at the end of Its credit Iu many cases, like that of the Philadelphia gas works, a private corporation es the city plant for a K0115 and makes money out of It faster th.111 i vr. The fundamental Idea of It, therefore, is to take the money of taxpayers to render service to non taxpayers for less than the service costs. Editorial In Minneapolis Trib une. M. 0. IN MILWAUKEE. Unwarranted Action of the City Coun cil In the Wisconsin Metropolis. If you authorize an agent to pur chase u piece of property for you at $.-,000 and he finds that it will cost $13,000 and goes ah -ad and buys it without consulting yo 1 on the ground that you had said that you wanted the property, your words would probably not look well in print. This is prac tically what has just been done In Mil waukee, the first party being the tax payers of that city and their agent be ing the city council. Some time ago the people of Milwaukee voted to au thorize a bond issue of $300,000 to in stall a municipal lighting plant. The city fathers found that the esti mate was $S0,000 too low and passed a resolution to issue bonds to the ex tent of $1,300,000. The city comptrol ler nt first refused to sign the neces sary papers on the ground that In view of the great difference in cost the mat ter should be again submitted to the people. This point was, however, overruled by the city attorney. If his opinion is good law, the law is bad, for It permits the agents of the people to abuse their powers with impunity. Why Kirlcv.ood Shut Down. Some time r.g the city of Klrkwood, Mo., was n; rte 1 to have shut dowu the general i'ig- plant of its electric light plant mi.l made a contract for current with a private company. The arrangement v.-as not, however, con summate 1. for the eompauy. Mayor Ochterhct k claims, did not act in good faith. The mayor gives the further frar.k statement in regard to th? mu nicipal p:;:ni : "uur 1 T :; t 1 1 was built about the year llsjl, ar.d 0:1 account of its being a municipal ma tier the city did uot get an u; tJ da.e plant an 1 is today suf ferin;: from having a plant that does not meet the requirements, and the cost of production is tv high; con- sequently it .Joes not pay the city if we tak into consideration deprecia tion ; tae Iniorest on our invest ment."

Interest Goes Right Along. In l jjs ilroetr.vood. S. C. issued 5 ier i?u' bo.ijs to the amount of $57, 33$ fir a water and light plant. The last r?pcrt available shows that none of tk- ,hs Ieea paid, but the generit.'r.i plant has been shut down, as it t- imaj ta be cheaper to buy current A contract has been made for tea years, at the end of which perl . I the plant will in all probability be toa r.at::j-Jated for effective 6ervice o that it m!-bt a:, well be written off the bootrs-but tho; Interest on the bonds keeps right on. Sentiment Not Enough. -The mere sentiment for ownership la not enough. It must be accompanied by the .coHJjcures to demonstrate Its practicability-under a strictly business test. Unfortunately the sentimentality cf the case is too often Indulged firat and to the exclusion of the necessary facts and figures. Bloomington (111.) rantagrapu. - .

It was an effort worthy of the speaker, full of good advice to hi people, and was well received by those who heard him. The negroes do well to follow the lead of such men as I'luinmer Cheatham and give heed to their wise counsel and rule of conduct in life. Among other things he said: I ask you to consider my appear ance upon this occasion as an ex pression of real interest in this grand institution of learning and in this beautiful city and community whose citizenship is" among the best people in our great State. Here, I imbibe my first impressions of manhood and life, and can say to you, the teachers and promoters of this glorious and brilliant beacon light, how lucky and how happy you are to have your lot cast with these good people of both races a people who will not shrink from duty, but will help those who will honestly strive to help them selves. And to the patrons of thw school, you c;m count yourselves fortunate v that you are favored with such an institution of learning and with such a God-fearing and competent corps of teachers to mould and shape and train your children to walk in the proper paths of life. Now, with the hope that this and similar institu tions of the land will vouchsafe to our waiting aud anxious people a successful voyage from their unhap py and unfortunate condition to the high and undisputed planes of citi zenship, we greet this occasion with smiling faces ami cheerful hearts,con gratulating ourselves that we are a part and parcel of the wonderful ex panding tide of opportunities and progress which is so beautifully flow ing with eilvery hue and providential air in every nook and corner of the land: and amid the flow nf thi wel comed aud blessed tide, there seems to be an unseen hand of unusual ac curacy, carefully placing and replac ing, puiucing anu replanting, nurtur ing aud insDirincr in all of thpdennrr.- ments of the affairs of man instead of leaving him and his fields of oper ations to overflow and ruin or to waste and rot. Yea. the condition of the. hum.m family, nearly everywhere, is indeed optimistic. The favorable omen nf the differ. ent seasons of the year; the prophetic signs as transmitted to us through the days andnichtsas thevrunieanil go and act as the time keepers of man ana me universe, the increased number of sheaves of an nhrmdnnf. harvest; the crowded avenues of trade and business in all quarters of the land, the jammed and congested con- i 1 .... uitions 01 trie railroads winch handle the commerce of a hustling yeoman ry; the crowding and overflowing of the colleges everywhere with men and women who are honentlv nm. earnestly seeking a higher citizenship: ,.11 Z .1 . a 1 .. .

Look at the great array of interests beaming up before us, look at their streams, how thev are expanding and bursting over the banks, and what Drosreritv thev send flowing through the land. The whole being of man seems to be per meated with that tenacious and un yielding spirit of going onward and upward, of building and eiilarointr of facilitating and couveniencingand ot beautifying and expanding the whole realm of hum mwm 7 " think to what proportions our great government nas extended its bor ders. If she continues at this rate she will soon take in all the islands of both the Atlantic aud Pacific oceaus. The increased fneilitiea in habitants and reveuues ftom the Cuban, Porto liican, Hawaiian and the Philippine Islands, with their im mense wealth and advantages, have powerfully strengthened our e-overn- ment. So wonder the American nation is both revered and feared bv all the powers of the earth. Her home entrenchments are so powerful, her organic and basic nrincinleK . pure, her credit and integrity abroad so absolute and unquestioned, her judicial ermine and Executive heads in State and Nation' are so admired and feared, her finan cial and tariff discoveries and enact ments nave awakened such keen sur prise and yet such a conmlete esceuce by all the countries of the giODe, on account of which her in comes from her commercial inter course with other nntiminlirioo amount to 187.000.00(i ni.:..,oiiT 7 " - -y-ww uiitiuuil I more than enoncrli tn mn affairs.

There are more necessities for education than ever.ou acCi)??t oI tlie increase of population and binding resDonsihilities nn.i ti,tt growing activities of the world, also UUWIT5 inereoi stand ajar as college doors never stood before; with larger doors, wider doors, and better door.-, who?e sacred and outstretched arm remain extended night and day to all the peoples, even in Africa, in Iiurma and in the Isles of the Seas. Yea, Mi hills and mountains of the land are dotted with these educational beacon lights, and there seems to be a loud call, of great meaning from the heav ens above and a drum corps awaken ing from the ground beneath us. Ii a word, the dispensation of this age demands that the dark and narrow cells which have 60 long fettered and benighted and prevented the expan sion of the human mind shall be burst asunder and that the whole people shall have a fair chance to be educated and elevated to meet that impending avalanche of duty and re sponsibility which this wonderful age Is presenting, rnends, we must ed ucate! Education means to wake a man up, draw him out, straighten him erect, to grind and chisel off his rough, uncouthed and unmanly growths; yea, it shakes his mighty dungeon of lethargy, ignorance and superstition. One of its objects is to prepare man to do well all grades of work, and to dignify labor; it takes off the rubbish and leaves man a pol ished and polite gentlemanjit snatch es from thefingers of the poor sports man his little cane and his cheap cigar; it lays at the feet of the "dude" his fantastically royal robe of foyy and vanitj acd enables him to roll up his sleeves like a man and engage earnestly in the gainful pursuits of life and there share in the health, happiness and fortunes of these ad vancing times. Moreover, its mis sion is to restrain the passions and appetites of man from low to lofty ideas; and when the minds and very lives of all are acuated and filled with the proper spirit of the creation of man and matter, when the human family, all classes, all the people com mence to crave to live andeniov that tiigh, civilized, industrious, honest and pure life which education and re ligion establish, the grave problems and burning questions of today, such as labor troubles, race antipathy, lynching, graft, and even railroad rates, will he solved, answered and settled once for all. This beneficent hand of progress is seen and felt wherever the duty of man is faithfully performed. It is re markable how busy and overcrowd ed the great paths of traffic and com merce are kept on land aud sea,home and abroad, conveying and handling and removing to and from the raar ketsjaf tbe world the great products from the fields of agriculture, from the mines in the mountains, from the mills aud factories and from the crude forests at large. indeed we are always happy when we see: Fields of wheat so full and fair, Shining with a bunny air, Lightly waving either way, Graceful as the breezes play. The building and beautifying of the mighty towns and cities, and the broadening and extending the bul warks of the same, and the weilding of the chisel and the axe, the shovel and the pick, the ringing of the ham mer and anvil, tell the tale in every community, a "busy workshop." A wortuy insignia or a noble and proud people. No longer does the old sickening. sinful, idiotic and erroneous idea pre vail which once took possession of almost .all classes of men in this country, that it is lowering and un becoming a gentleman to take oft his coat in public as well as in private and roll up his sleeves and hustle to a finish whatever his hands find to be done in the line of his business. De rision aud ridicule have lost their fangs; no longer will the young men ot today De ingutened with their ghostly shadows. The new. fields of opportunity, wealth and usefulness. though hard labor it may be, are drawing men with stronger cords than the pressure of his necessities can force him or the customs of pride can intimate. We see upon the surface of l he earth and feel in the very air around us that pleasant and alert ful spirit of expansion and development. Fifty or sixty years ago, the goods we wore on all occasions were carded upon the laps of the women and spun with a small spinning wheel turned by one baud and the thread thereof manipulated from the spindle with the other and theu taken to a great wooden frame loom as large as a house in which the Weaver would sit for weeks, shooting the shuttle from right to left, from left to right; iu re versing the machine with the foot treadles below, it would change the warp and filling as the shuttle would dart across the loom taking a month or so to card and spin and weave 8 or 10 yards of cow hair cloth; but now one person can operate a hun dred cards, spindles and looms, at one aud the same time, doing better and more weaving in one hour than was done formerly in 2 years. These advancements are not mere talk nor something out of your sight, for this awakening impetus has struck this, your own thriving little citv. Forty or fifty yeurs ago Hender son was a mere little hamlet on the Raleigh & Gaston Railroad, with five small stores: Messrs. James II Lassiter & Son, Parry Wyche, Lewis Kittle, and Dunn, Burwell and Par ham, a livery stable, and small bro ker's exchange, managed by Mr. Yest Reavis, a small depot, a ware house a little larger thau the tobacco and cigar stand near the railroad crossing, and Ledbetters Hotel with a drummer droppiugin now and then. Her streets aud sidewalks, not as good as the public roads now; exam ine her today. Go into her busi ness and industrial departments and tell to whttt maguitude she luis ex panded. Look at her cotton mills, her tobacco factories, her oil mili aud electric light piaut; her water works, her solid fronts of brick and granite structures, her macadam streets and grauolithic sidewalks, her hundreds of palatial residences of modern and costly architecture, ob serve her fine sciiools and dourishiii" churches for both races; uud one of the most reputable, n.-vsy, and conservative newspapers raublisl'M m the United States, whose editor watches diligently the interests of the common good of his entire peo ple. The Henderson Gold Leap never fails to let the world know of its peo ple, especially when they are doin well. In a word, just think of the changed conditions. Fifty years sgo tbw identical nnt was one of the waste places of the wmmuuiijr, a Darren thicket used by the slave to hide from his mas ter to while away a few moments m that leisure and they could not otherwise get with their fellows.

It seems to have been quickened by some friendly aud mysterious power to the end, that it is giving irs time and capacity, no lunger as a thicket or, woods to shield the idler in his games and pastime, but to higher and nobler purposes. The Henderson Normal Institute btaiids upon this lovely hill with un folded arms towelfotue worthy young men and women toenter and prepare themselves for life's varied avoca tions, and for the uplifting and saving a needy and appreciative people.

Surely the great Architect of the Uni verse will some day bless the men and women who have savdd their earn ings and used them to build and beautify the waste places of His earth to the glory of their fellow-man. Now, my people, let me appeal to you to arouse and be earnest. As I have told you this is a peculiar and rapidly advancing age. You are largely the laboringclass, upon com mon labor the success or failure, the rise or fall of the masses of this race in the futuie entirely depends, and the time will come, yea, it is almost at hand, when it will be a serious question ii this opportunity to labor is given to your hands at all. The Bureau of Labor and Print i g in North Carolina, reports that nero labor in DG counties iu our state is unreliable and worthless. Now we caunot afford to have this s tid of our people. The hordes of Europe who were once sold in the market places of Eimland like sheen in the shambles are to come to this country to take your places, on the farms, in the shops, in the mines, in trusty po sitions iu private families, and on the publie works; in other words, in all the avocations of life. Let us gird up our loins, therefore, and do better work and more work than auy other class, with an honest de sire to benefit our employer as well as ourselves. Then we shall make friends and hold our own in the ranks of the millions who are progressing and advancing with the sweeping current of a glorious prosperity. Iu order to succeed and hold our own in the ranks of men, we must not be slow in speaking out and giving credit to those who have the cour age and friendship to 6peak oat for us:therne cannot do too much hon- Get Ready for the Big State October 7, 8, ALL RAILROADS-ASK Can you afford not to spend a few weeks at this delightful resort?
