THURSDAY, AUGUST 6,1903. SCHOOL COMMITTEES. NO PUZZLE AT ALL. BROWN'S DISAPPEARANCE Versrs the Th ToWnfchip System District Pln. RU rHKRFORDTON , N. C. Aug. 3, 1903. Mr. Editor : The district system was in force from 1842 to 1895, fifty-three years; the township system from 1895 to 1899, four years ; the district system again from 1899 to 1903, four years; and now we have the township system again. The district system has had fifty-four years of existence and the township sys tem onlr four, and these have been of tecent date, so recent in fact as to be re membered by most all our people. It goes without saying that the township system is not suited to the genius of our people who have been raised under the district plan and believe strenpnsly in in the largest possible measure of local gelf goveroient; This is especially true in school matters. District Committees were always largely influenced in the selection of teachers for their respective districts by the pwpular will of the pa trons of the schools, and seldom failed to hire teachers acceptable to a largo ma jority of the people interested. Under the township plan this is almost wholly impracticable. It cannot be expected that the township committees will take the Kioie interest in the several district school that a local district committee would take. In Chimney Rock town ship, for instance, there are ten white and four colored schools. Three of these, and only three, can be represen ted by a township committee "leaving seven other white and and four colored, or eleven schools without a local repre sentative or any one to speak for them whose words have any binding effect. These eleven schools n ust accept with out remedy any teacher employed by the township . committees or keep the children at home at an irreparable loss to the children themselves. Another objection to the township system is that it increases the cost of supervision in this county by one dollar a day to each committeeman, for four days in the year, or twelve dollars to the township or one hundred and fifty -six dollars for the county. Another objection, it is a great incon venience to teachers who must in many cases ride fifteen or twenty miles to get their claims appfovtd. Another objection is that it forces white men in a large measure to over look, supervise and direct in the man agement of negro schools. As a rule, White people don't like to be put in a position of this sort. Negroes should manage negro schools when they have soffiicient intelligence to do so; lacking this, white district committees should do so for them. . It has been said that districts some times are the dumping grounds for rela tives or favorites, but if this be objec tionable on the district it is more largely so on the township plan as will be read ily seen by reflection. Instead of find ing a place for a single pet they can find places foi numbers of them. Neither plan is perfect, but of two evils it is al ways best to choose the least. This sub ject is almost inexhaustible, but we have sufficiently followed it we think to show that the new board in returning to it made a mistake. Evidently the people did not want it, and many who were ap pointed are refusing to qualify. Summarizing the acts of the board at July meeting we have reached the fol lowing conclusions : let. The removal of Mr. Robert Hen derson and the election of Mr. (Jr. W. Long was contrary to law and in viola . tion of instruction by State Superinten dent Joyner: ' 2nd. The election of Capt. W. T. R Bell illegal and contrary to the express ed will of the people. 3rd. The abrogation of the district and the substitution of the township ystem of school committees a very grievous mistake as they can learn, if they have not already learned by asking iwnple what they have been thinking and saying about it. Two first acts illegal ; the next a mis take; what next? One Interested. Potent Pill Pleasure. The pills that are potent in their ac tion and pleasant in effect are De Witt's Jjlttle Early liisers. W. S. Phillpot of Albany, Ga., says, "During a bilious at tack I took one. Small as it was it did tn$ more good that calomel, blue-mass or any other pills 1 ever took and at the ferae time, it effected me pleasantly. Little Early Risers are certainly an ideal piil."

Eluenboko, August 3rd. There was much truth in the words spoken by the wise man, Solomon, when he said "It'll all soon blow over." The truth of it has already been verified. It has cer tainly blown over for Solomon and a few others in our county. The Bell has been tolled, the peal has been heard, the only thing remaining undone is a quiet and peaceful burial vyhich will be atten ded to in due time. Men in high places may trsmple the wishes of the people for a time but will certainly be remembered and ignored. Your puzzle in last week's Tribune was no puzzle at all. A puzzle is some thing that contains a possibility but is perplexing. Yonr so called puzzle has not the semblance of a possibility to a person wno nas any regard wnatever for truth and honesty. You will not lose anything by your proposition for it is impossible to make the three parts harmonize. If the dog days began on July 6th will they terminate in forty days or will they continue for two years? If the lat ter be the case we had better ask the in coming Pope, whoever he may be, to i.iy his pontificial hand upon our heads and impure the Most High to bestow a spirit of meekness and fortitude that we may be enabled to bear the burdens which may fall to onr lot. Rev. Z. D. Harrill, whose home was burned on the 23rd of July has rented and moved into W. L. Black's house. J. C. Byers has accepted a position with the Henrietta Mill Co., as salesman at Caroleen. Mr. J. S. has gone to Shelby to day to trade off some old plugs. Mrs. Laura Royster is visiting her sis ter, Mrs. A. S. Harrill, this week. T. C. McDaniel has bought a new or gan. Messrs. Martin and Byers have sold their stables, stock, ete. to McDaniel Brothers. Mrs. A. Hallman is still very ill and she cannot last much longer unless tbre is a change for the better.

The protracted meeting at Pleasant Hill, which was conducted by Rev. J. M. Walker of Rutherfordton, assisted by Rev. M. M. Laudrum, of Forest City, was well attended by attentive congre gations.

A man by the name of crown came to Henrietta some weeks ago and secured a job in the weave shops here. In the course of a few days he formed the ac quaintance of the boss, Mr. James Ham- rick, jvhose friendship he set about to cultivate by talking Masonry to him. After a while he got into his good graces and told Mr. Hamrick he wanted to bring his family here and it would take eight dollars and wanted to borrow it from him. He said he did not have it on hand but he could get it for him. He went to a friend and borrowed it and gave it to Brown. Well, to be as brief as possible Brown pui; in his disappear ance. We have been wondering if it was Copper Bill's Brown that he speaks of so often in his communications. If it is tell him that Mr. Hamrick said for him to come down and settle with him immediately if not sooner. Three of the Company store clerks, John Daniel of the grocery department, Robt.

Correspondence of The Tribune. Henrietta, August 5. Mr. Colon Stewart, a farmer abont two miles.south of Henrietta, had a narrow escape from being killed by lightning on last Sat urday. Quite a thunder and rain storm came up about noon and while he was at the table eating his dinner the light ning struck a large tree only twelve feet from him near the door, and shattered it to pieces. He says if he had not been at dinner he would have been been sit ting in the door watching the rain as he usually does.
