The inaugural address of' Gover 1. r Ayeouk, from which we present evtrr.e's in another column, is an ,;.;!e document. Lofty in diction, i:t-.ii.d and liberal in spirit, clear and i in; ed in thought and ' express-ion , ! stamps the Governor as a patriot aa-.i a state .swan. He sketches rap L iy ihe reasons for the enactment of the.i constitutional amendment, and the results Loped for from it. But the matters' that are most fully treated of are education and a fair election law. It is doubtful whether t he cause of popular education was ever more eloquently presented. Governor Aycock's whole heart and soul are interested in this work, and his earnestness and wisdom will do .much to fan into a hot heat the edu cational spirit, that is abroad in the Slate. He will find many difficulties in his way, but he is not a man to be lightly turned aside, and if it is in his power he will more than merit the title .of the "Educational Governor"-wh'ca ha-already been bestow ed on. him. On the subject of a new eW-c.lid-i law the Governor also ar gues lucidly and forcible. But. ev ery one should read the inaugural address" for himself.

Ilo ever much trade and expert opinions on the movement in cotton values may vary from day to day, they are not widely divergent on the general proposition that this is a "ten-cent cotton year." It is plainly not an ordinary or an aver age year. j In addition to the crop conditions favoring higher prices this season, the Southern planters have in gen eral shown an unusual degree of caution in marketing the product. Probably UO per cent of the season's entire cotton crop has been sold since late September, but this has manifestly due more -to the spinners' eagerness to buy than to the farm ers" desire to turn the staple into cash. There have certainly been times iu recent weeks when the temptation to rush the cotton for ward for "big money" must have been almost irresjstioie cnuJd not have oeeu resfsted, -probably, in ordinary years. To the credit of the Sour here, farmer it must ba said that he has not !c..-t his head and spoiled liis.prohts in this rat her ' re markable cotton seasocLof 1900. The Houston Post is doubtless' ful ly justified in' its position when it assures the farmers that there is now nothing in sight to warrant loan- prices and adds this advice: j "Any eiiort to pjace.spot cotton be i low t)J cents middling basis Hous- ! t -n or New Orleans should cause those owning the remnant of. the crop to refuse to make sales." The market for cotton goods does ! nor. at anv rate, disclose anv signs that should make the farmer weaken. j He is certatuly"more jastiCed'says j the Post "ia holding his staple for 10 cents this season than the man tufacturer was in forcing prices i down To'- 5 cents two years ago." j The oversupply then was dot half so j not iceable as is the undersupply now.

This state, the mills completed since June 30, or now in course of construction. Of these there are. 37, of which 19 were com pleted. These have 184,000 spindles and 3,600 looms. This brings the total ui to 1.4S1.771 spind!es and 33.2-9 looms. There are 18 mills now in course of construction, which of course do not report. Some of these are so large that when thev come to be counted the number of spindles will reach ever 1,750,000. The Reformatory Bill.

Problems to be Solved Roanoke-Chowan Times. The Legislature, now in session at Raleigh, has important problems be fore it to solve, among the'm the questions of lengthening (he public school terms and making there schools more efficient. This requires more money than is now raised by the revenue act. If the Legislature can frame a revenue act that will cause all the property iu the State to be listed at its true cash value, which we have understood to be the intent, there-vs ill be no need of is suing bonds or resorting to exraor dinary methods. Heretofore thero has been but little uniformity of valuation of property for taxation. Here iu Nortnampton we know, one township in which land is listed at its true value while in , an adjoining township it is listed,, at from one half to two-thirds its true value. itaise otir Own Horses.

They c in be raised 011 our J farms as cheap as in Kentucky, and J a fe w farm-ars are raising their own ! mules - But it is even rarer tn find this than it is to find a farmer who raises his own bread and meat at home. The metropolitan papers have been predicting the end of the horse, because of the invention and general use of the automobile. The same prediction was made regard ing bicycles, but it did not come trae. The bicycle craze died out to a great extent, and there is as great demand for horses as ever.

Charirty and Children. The State institutions, including the Insane Asylums and the Schools for the Deaf, and Dumb and' Blind, the colleges at Chapel Hill, at Ral eigh, aud at Greensboro are already making demands upuu the Legisla-. 'lire for increased appropriations. No doubt each of these institutions would be move comfortable with a larger slice from the State Treasury, but the supreme question of the hour, iu our judgment, isthe improvement of our public school system. Edu cational facilities for every child in North Carolina was the slogan of the campaign last summer, and the promise made on every stump n.ust Oe fulfilled., llow to raise the rev enue for the proper equipment of the cymmon schools, is the puzzling question, but it must be done some iio.v if something- else is left 'out. Strong appeals will be made, and krreat pressure" will be brought to tvar on our law-makers from Tinny directions,' but we hope above all the clamor they will' hear the cry of the children who have waited so lo.ig It is now or never thousand of them: with They many a UlU; t be given a chance.
