Vol. x, OPINIONS OF THEPERSS.! t WHALYHRmlTESN0FN0nUM cAnrHcAS T i As it Appears to Our Brethren of the Quill in J North Carolina -On Political and other . Quesfions. President Butler, of the State Al liance, who, with the assistance of a few other small-fry politicians, came so near wrecking that organization in this State, by forcing it into the Third party, lias now stepped down and out. May we hope that the new administration will forsake partisan politics, weed out all politicians and regain its lost opportunities? North Caroliuian. Senator Vance's letter has occa sioned a' great deal of comment, both favorable and unfavorable to his yiews on the silver question. Silver is unquestionably the money of the people the masses and they have always been very close to the great heart of Senator Vance. However faulty his judgement may be re garded by some no one will doubt the honesty of his opinions, and the manliness of his expressions. Here is another opinion of a Geor gia Democrat, the Jesup Sentinel, and it is for the benefit of members of the Housse we copy it: "We are raying each of them $14 per day to do what we demand of them, and if they cannot serve us according to our instructions, as set fortli in the Chicago platform, let them resign and come home." That is right. Wilmington Mes senger. It may be some consolation to know that the scarcity of small bills reduces the number of bacteria, bac illi and other microscopic varmints that we have to pocket with the small bills. It isn't pleasant to re flect that when yon have your pocket full of bills you are toting around an incubating 6hop for all that sort of critters. The average newspaper man, however, is not much interested in these microscopic developments. Wilmington Star. Several counties in the State have adopted the plan of working the convicts of the county upon public roads. Wherever we have seen re-, ports from the experiment the best of results have followed and im provements have been made that pos sibly would not have been obtained in any other way. The Reflector has been anxious to see the Commis sioners of Pitt county adopt this plan and improve the roads of this county by working the convicts upon them. Taking the evidence from other counties they could take no better step for road improvement. Greenville Reflector. The Old Roman, ex-Senator Thur mau, asks a very searching question when he wants to know if the Sher man act produced the financial strin gency that led to the breaking of all but three banks in Australia, and if it produced the financial troubles that other couutries have so recently experienced. The Old Roman is, we think, correct in saying the finan cial stringency here was caused large ly by the panics in other countries. The panics in other countries were, we believe, caused by too small a volume of money. The wise thing for our country is to have a larger basis for currency than gold alone supplies. Kinston Free Press. While the House is battling over the report of the Sherman act, on the one side and the free coinage of silver on the other, in the Senate the discussion takes a wide range. Sen ator Voorhees' bill in regard to in creasing National Bank circulation may be amended by incorporating a provision repealing the tax on State bank notes, and in that shape go over to the House of Representa tives. We are under the impression that the sentiment expressed by the Raleigh Chamber of Commerce is apt to become the leading thought first secure an increase of the cur rency, and after that dispose of the silver business. News-Observ e r -Chronicle. The Raleigh Christian Advocate pavs a high tribute to the Presby terians in their observance of the Sabbath at the World's Fair. It says: The Presbyterians are noted for their careful observance of the Sab bath. They declined to make an exhibit at the World's Fair when they found it was to be opened on Sunday. Part of their exhibits was on the grounds, but they would not unpack it until this question was decided, and when it was decied to open on Sunday they sent the ex hibits all back and declined to make any exhibits at all. This shows a devotion to the- Lord's ; Day that is commendable and ..is 'a fine example td other denominations;- " - . SON Roxboro, North Carolina, i Thursday, August 24th 1893. THE STATE UNIVERSITY. l$ " Worthy of North Car0,tna And H,r Peopl7 1 The Committee of the Board of ! Trustees appointed by the Governor fn innw.f. the TTnivwairv. mad a tull and detailed report at com- mencement. We print a few extracts which will inform the people of the condition and management of their chief institution of learning. GENERAL CONDITION. The general condition of the Uni versity is one of healthy, vigorous growth. The spirit that pervades it, from the president to the manager of the baseball team is pushing, hope ful 1 and progressive. There is a determination to make it all that a reasonable public will demand. MORAL AND RELIGIOUS TONE. Your committee as a body, and individually, were very favorably impressed with theTiigh moral and religious tone of the University, as it applies to both the faculty and the students. We were informed that the students regularly attended some of the church services of several christian denominations having churches in Chapel Hill. The order ly decorum, thegentlemenly bearing, and the quiet of the students at the chapel service and prayers were very marked, and the members of the committee were highly pleased and gratified. The young meu listened attentively to the reading of the scriptures, and engaged heartily in the service of song. The morning prayers we attended impressed us as solemly as would a family wor ship before the duties of the day begin. It was a company of joyous, hopeful, happy young men. Your chairman, by invitation of the young men, attended the worship of the Young Men's Christian Association, and by their request made a short talk after reading some selections from the Scriptures and prayers. He was encouraged and strengthened by the service, aud went away grate ful for the privilege, and with the prayer in his heart "God bless the young men in this institution, and turn the feet of many through their influence to obedience to His statues.. And God bless the University, and multiply its power for good." QUALITY OF INSTRUCTION. The quality of the instruction given is in keeping with the character and quality of the men in charge of the departments and their scholar ship and ability. No one doubts this who knows the standard claimed for it by the management of the University. The standard of the work is best judged by the bright and aspiring young men of the high grade institution. These are the best measures of college class work. Such young men desire the advan tages of the best work. When it fails to come up to the standard of the best, they are the first to find its defects and to demand its improve ment. Such young men are not easily deceived; and woe betide the professor who fails to reach their standard of demand. From these, and their attitude towards the pro fessors here largely, your committee conclude that the work is well and efficiently done. HEALTH. We inquired about the health of the students, and received the reply that not a member of the faculty nor of the student body was sick durhfg our visitj that no professor had been sick during the year, and only one student had been seriously sick, and that he came in September, having contracted sickness elsewheie. He returned to his home and died there in October. The testimony was that the village was unusually healthy. RELATIONS OP OFFICERS AND STU DENTS, After careful inquiry we conclud ed that the relations of the faculty to each other, and to the President, were most cordial and kindly. Not a jar, but peace and the kindness of friendship pervaded the entire facul ty. All were working together har monously for the common purpose of serving together the best interests of higher education; and all were striving in generous rivalry to serve the University and the State to the very best ability of each. The faculty were unitedly following"" the leadership of our worthy President and aiding him iu every way possible in the administration of the affairs of the University. They united in testifying to his wisdom, prudence, firmness, zeal and high executive ability. - We found the very best state of feeling between students and faculty, the faculty striving to be helpful to the students, and the students ren dering much aid to the . faculty in general management of the Univer sity, ami taking a great pride in mak ing a good name for the " institution. HOME FIRST: 1 The. faculty bore wrm testimony to this, and expressed grateful appre ciafcion therefor to the committee. non-political AND NON-DEMOMI- NATIONAL. The management of the Universi ty, we fallly believe, from our inves tigation, to be free from political and denominational bias. We have seen no evidence of any such bias in either direction. The students are from families of every shade of poli tics and religion.- We heard not a word of discord or unpleasantness on either score. We do ' not believe anything of the kind has any exis tence here. There is a bias for re ligion,, the religion of our own Bible, the Christian religion., Why should it not ie so biased? Our civilization is a Christian civilization. Our school system is a Christian civilization. Our constitution, declares that "re ligion, morality and knowledge being necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools ani the means of education shall forever be encouraged." Does any one suppose that any other religion than that of our own Bible, or thai any morality except that of which our Bible is the best teacher, was in the minds of tha men who framed this constitution? Under this constitu tion, and by its command, we have our public school system; under this constitution, and by its command, this University was founded. Let it be religious ! It must be religious. There is a common ground for the common good, broad enough for us all to stand , on as Christian men and oitizens of a Christian State. Denominational bias should have no place here, either in the faculty or in the board of trustees. We believe it has no place. It becomes us to see to it that it has no place. THE STATE NEEDS THE UNIVERSITY AND THE UNIVERSITY IS WOE THY OF THE STATE. We believe that the University is worthy of our highest efforts to main tain it and to broaden its influence, and send out its light to bless the State in blessing its young men and broadening them for service. The State needs the University. The University is worty of the State. Let us keep it so. As our educational horizon expands with the advance of these wonderful times let us enlarge the center light that its rays may touch the remotest points and bring hope and joy to the men who are to come after us. John C. Scakborouoh, Chair' n. The Penitentiary Farm. The State convicts are patting in some good work on the State farms on the Roanoke, as we gather from the following statement of Superin tendent Leazer, which we find in the Weldon News of this week. "The crops are magnificent, the finest I ever saw in all my life. The grandest agricultural spectacle of which I have knowledge is presented by our corn field. We have an area in corn four miles long and a mile wide. This contains 3,000 acres. There is not a missing stalk and so luxuriant is the growth that it is nearly black. We had a good wheat crop. On fifty acres we harvested 950 bushels. Our whole crop was 8,000 bushels. We expect to make 100,000 bushels of corn unless a freshet in the river interteres. It is well worth going there to see, from anywhere in the State. We have 1,600 acres in cotton and this is fine, although the cold weather in the spring did it some damage, but Lot much. We have 1,000 acres in peas. We expect to get 1,000 bales of cot ton this season. It should be borne in mind that we have not used a particle of fertilizer on corn, wheat, cotton or peas. . You never saw a cleaner crop. I will undertake to say that in the 4,600 acres of corn and cotton there is not a wagon load of grass. We have sold in this sec tion 8,000 bushels ' of last season's corn. We propose to put 40,000 bushels on the market in the State of the crop now ; growing, and to knock out Chicago in this section. We have 100 acres in sorghum cane, and there is no finer , in Louisiana. As I rode through' it on horseback if rose above my head. We expect to make 10,000 gallons of syrup from it." . " - ' . ; Silver-Purchase Repeal. Washington, ; August 15. At a meeting called by the committee in charge otthe bill for the! uncondi tional repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act held to-night in the Arlington Hotel, Represenative Rayner, of Maryland, 1 presided. About forty members were present, representing . every section of ythe country. The j then compared notes and the meeting felt: satisfied that there was a majority in the House of not less than thirty in fvor of the Wilson bill. Various sub commit tees were appointed to meet from time to time and report on the ' con dition of the House on the subject of repeal until a vote has been taken. ABROAD NEXT. .. Highest of all in Leavening Power. -Latest U. S. Gov't Report. II r A TJ SUNDAY READING. God has three sorts of servants in the World. Some are slaves, and serve Him from a principle of fear; others are hireling and serve Him fo? the ake of wages ; and the last are sons, and serve Him under the in fluence of love. It is said that the well-known song "The Sweet By and By," was purely accidental. Mr. Bennett the writer of the words, and Mr. Webster, the composer of the music, at that time residents of Chicago. One day as Mr. Bennett was at his place of busi ness, Mr. Webster, who was of a sensitive nature and easily suscep tible to depression, came in, in one of his melancholy moods. "What's the matter now !" asked Bennett. "It's no matter," he answered," "it will be all right by and by." The idea of the hymn came to me like a flash, says Bennett, and I replied : The "Sweet By and By!" Why would not that make a good hymn?" "Maybe it would" said Mr. Webster, indifferently. Turning to the desk, Bennett then wrote three verses of the hvmn. "In the meantime, two friends, N. H. Carswell and S. E. Bright, had come in," says Bennett. "I handed the hymn to Mr. Webster. As he read it his eyes kindled and his whole demeanor changed. Step ping to tne desk he began, in a mo ment, writing the notes. Presently he asked for his violin and played the melody. In a few moments more he had the four parts of the chorus gotten down. I think it was not over thirty minotes from the time I took my pen to write the words before the two gentlemen above named, myself and Mr. Webster, were singing the hymn, in the same form in which it afterward apperred. While singing, Mr. R. R. Crooby, now a resident of Richmond, 111., came in. and after listening a while with tears in his eyes, uttered the prediction. "The hymn is immortal." It was sung in public shortly after.and in two weeks almost every child on the streets was singing it." It has been translated into several languages, and sung in every land under the sun. Lather says, once upon a time the devil said to me, "Martin Luther, you are a great sinner, and will be damned !" Stop ! stop ! I said; "one thing at a time." I am a sinner, it is true, though you have no right to tell me of it, I confess it, what next? "Therefore yon will be damned." "That is not . good reasoning. It is true I am a ' great sinner, but1 it is written "Jesus Christ came to save sinners," therefore I shall be saved! Now go yoar way. So I cut the devil off with his own sword, and he i i went away mourning Decause ue cou'd not cast me down by calling me a sinner." If you walk with Christ, keep, out of all evil company, of all evil assr ciations, keep from all evil places, from eveiy place where you cannot go in the spirit of Christ, and that, if upon earth, you might not expect to meet him there. If you go out of the territory where He would go, you need not expect to find Him. Rustic - Robin. Specimen Cases. S. H. Clifford, New Castle, Wis was.troabied witn jNenraigta ana Rheumatism, his Stomach was dis- ored, his Liver was affected to an alarming degree, atopetite fell -away, and he was terribly reduced in flesh and strength.

Used three bottles of Electric Bitters and seven boxes of JBucklen's Arnica Salve, and his lea is sound and well.

Yesterday while Sheriff - McPhaul was bringing a United States prisoner from White ville to Wilmington, the fellow, although hand-cuffed, jumped through the window of the . car and made his' escape. I he tram was stopped aand the sheriff gave chase, bat it was not learned whether v he caught the man or not. The prison er had been "a moonshiner" and was under sentence to pay a fine - of $500 and to be imprisoned for ''one year .Wilmington Messenger. ; COUK $ 1 .00 Blind Tfgers For Rum Sucking--Soutn Caro linians. , They ido tell us that since Gov ernor Tillman's dispensary whiskey law has gone into effect in South Carolina, f "blind tigers" innumer able,, have' sprungup in Columbus county and othe counties in -North Carolina and other counties border ing on the Palmetto State. The fact that the South Carolina neighbors have "hot fires" to cool down and must have something to do it with besides dispensary whiskey, has en sured many "sympathizers" in North Carolina into an effort to supply the demand. The "blind tigers" are the result, and besides this, they tell us that since the dispensary law has gone into effect there is a great big boom in moonshine stills in Colum. bus and other bordering counties. Wilmington Messenger. Cotton Futures. New York, Aug. 11. The Sun says of cotton : August attracted considerable attention by an advance of fourteen points. It is supposed to have the support of leading Greek houses. The early business here was at some decline in most months owing to a fall in Liverpool, but later on there was a general advance, with less pressure to sell and a better financial situation. The close was at an advance of six points on Sep tember and three to four on other months, with the tone strong. .The rainfall in Texas was small. The sales were 101,500 bales, Liverpool declined three to three and a half points, and closed easy with spot sales of 10,000 bales. - Large Decrease in Government Receipts. Washington, August 15. The continued business depression is felt by none more sensibly than by the goyernment. Its revenues rise and fall in touch with business. So far this month its receipts are -three million dollars less than last month, and during the last three days the falling off has been very heavy. Business men are taking out of bond ed warehouses as few goods as pos sible, while -imports have not only curtailed their imports, but are tak ing advantage of all delay possible in paying custom duties. At the present rate the Treasury receipts will not be over $27,000,000 for the month, instead of $35,000,000. Fire at Boydton, Va. Richmond, Va., August 15. A special to the Dispatch from Boyd ton, Mecklenburg county, says: "About 2 o'clock this morning fire broke out in the engine room of Geo. M. Brown's wagon factory, which was entirely destroyed and before its progress could be stopped, consumed a number of business houses and residences and injured others, inflicting a total loss of more than $20,000. Most of the houses and contents were partially insured. The fire is supposed to have been of incendiary origin." Now Try This. It will cost you nothing and will eurely do you good, if you have a Cough, Cold, or any trouble -with Throat, Chest or Lungs. Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption.
