Last Sight's Session.
Hendersonville, N. C., Dec. 9
Never before in the history of the
Baptists of North Carolina has the
convention been so intensely stirred
as during the matchless address of
Dr. W, L. Poteat, president of Wake
Forest College, last night. For an
hour the gifted master of language
v and thought held the great gather
ing, gripping them with each sen
teuce, and while sometimes the and
ience would applaud vigorously and
again break into laughter at the
keen wit and satire of the speaker
there was almost a continuous in
tense, quiet attention.
Dr. Poteat, In his inimical wur, ui'
held denominational and Christian
education, and with that uuanswer-
able argument, ridiculo and sarcasm
compared ' the extravagant , munugc
ment. of -state institutions with the
economical methods of denomina
tional educators. When lie Had clos
ed the convention applauded vigor
ously and when President W. C
Dowd hadsecured order Rev. Living
ston Johnson, of Raleigh,' was recog
nized and offered the following reso
lutions, which were adopted by unan
imous vote:
"Whereas, we learn that an effort
will be made to have the next legis
lature pass a bill for the benefit of
the .state colleges ;and, i ','
"Whereas, we do not oppose a rea
sonable appropriation for the sup
port of these institutions; but,
"Whereas, they are now receiving
liberal appropriations amounting to
. $174 per pupil, , while the common
schools receive but $5 per pupil. ;
- "Wh,ereas, the denominational col
leges which are . educating twice as
many young men and women as the
state, colleges, are forced.to Increase
their endowment to meet the condi
tion created ;by the present appro
priations to the state colleges; and.
"Whereas, the large - appropria
tions to these state Institutions; made
possible by a bond issue, would ser
iously cripple ' Our denominational
colleges,', therefore, be It '.'",
Resolved, That we, delegates to
the Baptist State Convention, a, body
representing 224,000 Baptists, ; do
most earnestly : protest against any
obnormally large appropriation, such
as certainly would follow ,a bond is
sue." . , .

Cougrcss Likely to Pass Sonic SorJ of
u Bill. . .
(By Leased Wire' to the Times)
Washington, Dec. 9 That con
gress is likely to puss some sort of a
tariff commission bill this session in
the belief that is beginning to ot
tain in well-informed quarters about
the capitol. . 1
A year ago the notion that there
would be a permanent tariff commis
sion established at an early date
would have been scouted. :. But. there
are now political exigencies to be
considered. The republican parly
leaders are not willing to go befon
the people in 19 12, without something
substantial on which to base a cam
paign. A tariff commission law ap
peals to many as a long step in the
right direction.
it is declared that the senate
finance committee is quite likely to
bring out a bill for a tariff commis
sion. Senator Aldrtch himself, as
chairman of that commission, may
yet appear before the senate in the
role of advocate of a tariff commis
sion. Should the finance committee
leaders not support a bill for a com
mission there Is good reason to be
lieve that they will not raise much
opposition to legislation for such a
body, , ,
