I write this to say in reply to the first Inquiry that the effect this will have as to coun ty school boards throughout tbe State, if said decision is sustained by tbe Su preme Court of North Carolina. I write this to say in reply to the first inquiry that the decision of the Sampson county case does not effect any county board of education except thai in Sampson. I recognize the old beard of Sampson be cause the Superior Court of said county has so ordered, and I obey thin order until It It passed upon by tbe Supreme Court. In all the other counties where the old boards are contending, I recog nize the boards of directors appointed by the General Assembly as de facto offi cial boards, until ordered otherwise by the courts, as In the case of the Sampson county board. I, as executive officer, take It for granted that the atatute en acted by the General Assembly is the law, and must govern myself according ly until I am otherwise ordered by the courts. Therefore you, at county super intendent, will recognize this board of directors at the legal board of your county, until otherwise directed by the judgment of your court. In regard to the second inquiry, I will aay that it will be time enough to answer It after tbe Supreme Court tball have rendered lit decision. We hare trouble enough to take it at it comet, without going ahead to look for it."

Telegrams sent to members of the National Demo cratic Committee asking what, in their opinion, should be their parly's buttle cry In 1000 whether "Free Silver," "Down with the Trusts," or both have brought some queer answers. Au apparent desire lo pass from "Free Silver" to "Down with the Trusts,'' or something else, coupled wilh reluctance to lay bo plainly, is revealed in the an swers. While none of Ihc Democratic leaders say in set terms "Drop Free Silver," they are unanimous iu giving the trust ques tion a prominence it never has hail in the platform of their own or any other party All who speak freely suggest that some other Issue will devide the stage with free silver. Some say "Militarism" or "Imperial ism" will be one of the prominent issues, Others frankly emphasize the trust ques tion as the big thing. Still others speak for a twin battle cry, excusing their words in behalf of silver by making their adherence to the free coinage doc trine a battle against "the money trust " Tho.te who mo.it strenuously insist upon retention of the silver question as a cardinal principle of party faith mttkc concession to the "antl-lrusl" advocates by calling Ihc trust questlou. Not one of them says flat ly, "the issues of IMtfl will lie Hie i-isues of 1900." Of the committeemen who are either non-committal or refuse to be quoted, one Is George Kred Williams, of Massa chusetts, promlneut as a silver advocate iu 1800. The others are D. J. Campan of Michigan, a sixlcen-to-one stalwart; B. B. Smalley, of Vermont; Frank Camp bell, of New York; T. D. O'Brvan, of Mlnuesota, and J. G. Dudley of Texas. Committeemen who say "free silver" must have first place in the platform, combined wilh the questions of trusts and "militarism," are from Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, Arkansas aud Indian Terrltoiy. Mr. Troup, of Conneticut, is still enthusiastically for free silver. All the others either put the trust question first or lay much stress upon issues arising from the recent war. F.ven Montana, a mining Stale, and Southern Slates, whence the silver idea first spread from the mining regions, through their com mitteemen go back on the old Issue. All the rs.es.
