EDUCATIONAL RALLIES LAST WEEK. Knap of Reeds, Creedmoor and Stovall the Centers of Enthusiasm-Fine Speeches, Tempting Dinners. The good people of Granville coun ty being in full sympatic with the 4-reat Fducational movement as in augurated by our popultir and gifted Educational Governor, C. P.. Aycock, and our learned and etlicient Super intendent of Public Instruction, J. Y. Joyner, which is sweeping through out rvorth Carolina, Rallies were held the past week at Knap of Heeds, Creedmoor and Stovall. The object of these rallies, as well as those held throughout the State, nave been to bring people together to discuss plans and means to improve our Public School system, consolida tion of small districts with two or three teachers to each schools with scholars graded; local taxation; bet ter school houses; longer terms, bet ter teachers and higher salaries for teachers, have been some of the prin ciple subjects that have been ably dis cussed, e have never seen our peo ple more interested upon this vital and important question as was ex hibited by the large and attentive audiences that greeted the speakers, Messrs. J. W. Bailey, J. T. Alderman, R. D. W. Connor, F. W.Hancock and Jack Howard. At Knap of Reeds the old Masonic Hall has" T5ee"h -added to and thor oughly repaired for a High School, which will be supplemented by the public school fund which will enable it to run S or ! months with two good teachers. Two of the public schools near this point have been abolished and the new district en larged. The first rally was held there last Wednesday and largely attended and speeches were convincing and in structive. The good ladies of that community furnished a line dinner for the occasion. The next rally was at Creedmoor where another large crowd greeted the speakers who was joined by Prof F. I. Hobgoods. The speeches were enthusiastically received and con vinced the people of that section that they needed better school facilities The dinner spread after the eloquent speeches was tempting and bountiful and greatly enjoyed. A new district has been formed out uart of No 0 and 7 and a high school established with three teachers and running S or i) months under Prof, Knderhill. This will be supplemented by the public school fund. The editor had the pleasure, along with quite a number from Oxford, of attendingthe Rally at Stovall Thurs day. It was largely attended, the Baptist church being full of people. The speakers acquitted themselves in a handsome manner, as their speech es were very able, convincing and practicable. He v. Francis Milliard and Prof. It. D. W. Connor joined the sneakers here. After the speaking- was over the large crowd assembled around a bountifully supplied table the handiwork of the good ladies of this community which was greatly enjoyed by all present, it was a great afternoon for Stovall, and the people are determined to enjoy better school facilities. At and around Stovall it is the de sire of the Deople to abolish one or two school districts, and with the assistance of the Board of Education to establish a new district with the centre at Stovall, and to builfl anew school house and establish a High School to be supplemented by the Public School fund and run S or mouths. The schools at Geneva and Tar River Academy will be consolidated and a new school house built. The Board of Education will meet next Monday to consider several im portant changes in "regard to consol idation. We sav to Chairman Han cock let the grand;workcontinue until every nook and corner of our grand old county is thoroughly aroused on education. It is a pleasure to say that ourpeo nle were fortune in having such edu- catiouitl addresses as those made by Messrs. Bailey. Alderman, Hobgoods, Connor, Hancock, Jack Howard and Milliard, and all who heard them were delighted with their speeches Brother Bailev. the popular and dis tinguished young editor of the Bibli cal Recorder, is at his very best when MneHkiim- on education. He is one of the treat editors of the State, and has uone much by tongue and pen for education. His speeches in this county, along with Prof Alderman and others, were greatly appreciated and have no doubt done mucn gooa. The Socalled Independent Movement and the Duty of Democrats-Attend the Primaries. As some of our Democrats friends, who are interested in the success of the Democratic party truly the par ty of the people have asked what will be the effect of the-'socalled" In dependent movement which is trying to organize Itself in North Carolina, we give them our opinion on this sub ject. We do not think there is any danger from such a movement in old Granville, nor m uch danger anywhere else as to that matter, but give the friends who make inquiry our opin ion, which is based on "facts from those who are "on the inside." It is well known that there are two great political parties In this country, nor can there be buttwo for many years to come. So whatever is not Democratic is necessarily Re publican, whatever maybe its name. Of course in these independent move ments there may be various names employed just to deceive the people. Rut whether it be Independent, Com mercial Democrats, or even "Iteform- d 'Lilly White' "yet it means Repub lican and nothing but Republican as Senator Pritchard is at the back of them. The great issues of the day are be tween the Democrats and Republi cans. On the one hand is Republi canism winch means tariff oppres sion, imperialism and barbarity and trusts, and other ruinous doctrines. On the other hand Is Democracy. which stands for human liberty as opposed to imperialism, low tariff, opposition to trusts and such finan cial legislation as will not put the dollar above the man, as well as for the education of the masses. The line is well drawn. The Democracy understands it and will not be de ceived by strange gods set up 1 y Jeter C. Pritchard and coached by such old line Republicans in Granville as our friend J. W. Brown, who does not hesitate to say that he is in politics for the money. Y henever any orga nization or com bination is formed whatever be its name it it is not uemocratic it must be Republican, as there are only two kinds of political doctrine before our people. And our people know why it is necessary to change the name. The people will not swallow the Re publican the odor is too bad. The enemies of the Democratic party well know they will have to rehash that old dish again, just like the cooks do when they have a dish that does'nt go well they just wvirm it over and rehash it again and call it by another name. But the people know the Republi can tricks too well, as they have been too often deceived. They will not soon forget i.v.4 and witu the fearful black consequences which fol lowed. Of course this is a free country and if a man wants to go with the Re publican party he has a right to do so, but we believe no true Democrats will allow themselves to be duped by an enemy in disguise. If they are Re publicans let them join our friend Billy Brown ( Prltchard's right bo wer in Granville) and affiliate with the Republicans in their conventions; if thev be Democrats let them beware of any other name. And then, it is very important for true Democrats to put on their true armor and show their colors. This is not the time for lukewarmness, In activity and indifference. Get down to work as the enemy is secretly at work trying to create dissatisfaction In our ranks, and keep your eye on P.illy Brown who has been appointed chairman of the Republican executive committee in Granville by Senator J. C. Pritchard. While we are blessed with a good government.and wThile things are go ing our way, let us determine to keep them so. With most of our Demo crats the danger is not that they may go with the Independents (which is only another name for Ilepublicau), but that we will rest too quietly in our camps and allow the enemy to take us by surprise. e dealt them heavy blow in 1S!S, and a still heavier one in 1U00. This fall we want to give them a solar-plexus which will settle the question of good govern ment in North Carolina for years to come. And in this connection we would URGE OUR PEOPLE THE IMPOR TANCE OF ATTENDING THE PR I MARIES, which have been called for Saturday, September 13th, at : p. m in the county and in Oxford at 11 a, m.The primary Is by far the most im portant of all political meetings held. It Is the people's meeting. It is the nnit of the great political system the rock-bed of our political liberty Therefore we urge every true believer in Democratic principles not to fail to attend. Under our liberal Democratic plan of organization, it gives every man a voice, xnereiore we most earnestly urge upon our fellow Democrats the importance of attending the primary Some people never attend a primary and yet afterwards complain when the proper men are not selected. dently it is the people's fault when the proper candidates are not select ed. The way to get good menand those we want is to attend the Primaries, as here is where the work Is done. Let no man who staj's away from the Primaries blame any one except himself if the proper men are not nom inated.Besides.it is a duty in a conn try like ours where the elective fran chise is free for all liberty-loving citi zens to take a part, not only in the elections, but in the nominations. It is a great privilege which should nto lie lightly thrust aside. At the age of 10 a girl wonders if a man is really good enougu ior uer. At 0 she wonders which man is the most worthy of her. At 25 she won dura w hich of the several worthy men she has In time past refused will come hack to her. At 28 she begins to won; der what man she can get. H1 On 1Te VoVe.
