C. as second-class matter, Soctlon Two, Friday Jan 29, 1103 WHAT IS ENOUGH, FOR MR. BRYAN. It would seem as If there might be some point In William Jennings Bry an' political life, when he couli ny that he had had enough, Tor the public statement made by Mr Bryan, that he was hot a presidential cardldat? Is not a sufficient political withdrawal, when Mr Bryan places his dlsappi oval upon e erj man who may be named as a possible presidential nominee, and further, pub licly announces what should be the ac tion of the National Democratic conven tion, at Its next meeting, eapecla'ly when such a party policy has proven disastrous in the past, and does not meet the approval of Democrats to day. It U not that Mr Bryan needs to force himself, or feel that unless he takes an arbitrary position, he will be forgotten or ignored by his party, for he has been given the greatest latitude, and his really unnecessary public utterances have been received without special criticism, and often been excused upon some ground As the last National Democratic Pres idential candidate, Mr Bryan is entitled to the greatest courtesy, and be given re spectful hearing. This has been gener ously accorded him. At the present time, the Kansas Ctiy platform repre sents the last and only public declara tion of the National Democratic party. Therefore this platform Is effective to day, although it may not call ' for public attention, or be qaoted as In force to govern future Democratic actions. It Is not necessary to eay that Mr. Bryan has demonstrated that he Is a failure as a leader. And In spite of his two failures those who have supported him have given him every recognition and honored him. This ought to be enough tor Mr Bryan, and It is far from generous, considering the party favors hitherto shown htm, or patriotic, if he has the future success of democracy at heart, for Mr. Bryan, to continue to ar bitrarily say who is or who Is not to be the next Democratic Presidential nomi nee, or to make public declarations as to what the National Democratic party must say in its platform at the St. Louis Convention in July. There is a limit to this taking advant age of his position, on the part of Mr. Bryan, for Democratic interests are of far more importance than any one man or a dozen men, who may Impede Demo cratic progress, and he will be wise to heed, lest he lose all party favor and re gard, by a continuation of his pergonal ultimatum on what the party shall do, for it is not for a single Individual to de clde for the party. NEW BERN'S EDUCATIONAL EXAMPLE Naturally, and quite reasonably , the example which New Bern sets must have its positive effect npon the rest of Craven county, whether it be in morals, educationally or commercially. In this connection, the question of how and what example li New Bern set ting, in Its educational life, and to It one which can be profitably followed by the rest of , the county, is 'an important one. - The Journal doei not believe, In con- liderlngonednstltntlon of learning, (hat thejffew Bern Graded School to perform inf the fun educational duties which an institution of its character; ought to be capable of doing. The first serious fac tor to the over crowded rooms, and ad- Sol rtoi this over! crowdedness ';.! .." the lack of proper equipment in the clan Neither of these obstacles are atw,for many months, ago the subject of addi tional school quarters were discussed, and the public ws practically If not ac tually promised, that a new school build Ing would be ready last all That hai moit dismally failed of realization, and the oversow of the school instead of a new and proper school building, li erowded la to poor q Barters over a prac tically coademned thaalr building, and to reach that qaarUrs It is Dcary to climb a dark, sleep and winding at air- way, a sea ace to Uom who saust past ap or dowa these step. . It to not that there is so money to remedy and correct la order to matt Um School or educational property of value to thoae seeklag lu preclncU to be taught, tor there are resources which could readily be need to properly equip this Uchool aa It's needs jostly demand, and inch as this community Is entitled to. What inch a school condition upon the leaser and smaller sehoola of Craven county most be, to evident to every one. It make It Impossible for those who could and would go to the county schools, under better New Bern con ditions, and assist la their betterment. for they cannot with any good grace or courage attempt inch work, while their home conditions are as they are to day. Ppstponement in this matter of hav ing the proper accommodation and equipment for the New Bern Graded School ooght not to continue for one day. Action to demanded, aa action which means results, for unless there be advancement In the affairs of Ihl School, there Is certain to be ret r ogre slon, and this must not be permitted, for educational advancement Is demanded if this city is to go ahead, morally 01 socially, in its Industries or It) com merce and commercial growth; A POLITICAL PLEA FROM WEST- ERN CAROLINA. The esteemed Asheville Citizen in s recent editorial, presents calmly and die passionately a plea why the next guber natorlal nomination in North Carolina should go to the Western section of the State and urges General Davidson as the man for the nomination. The citizen says: The political issues for the past ten years have made it very difficult for us to maintain our ascendancy in the west especially on this side of the mountains It would not be proper on this occasion to go into the causes contributing to this condition, it is sufficient to recall the fact that the emergency of reccn political struggle demanded that the western Democrats should always be Id the front of the battle a position they gladly accepted and bravely maintained While tbelr ranks have been thinned the final triumph of the great came for which, with the Democracy of tbe east they contended, has Insured social se curity snd political ascendancy; but it bas imperilled the political situation ot their brethren of the West. They must now set about the task of recovering their lost ground and that must be on dertaken in the front of the stronghold of the common enemy, it is needless to point out the enormous advantage it will be to tbem and to the entire party 11 the governor is chosen from tin region. The eastern Democrats have, we believe, the opportunity now to make a graolous recognition of long, faithful unselfish devotion to the welfare of the other section! of the state; and to build np a permanent control of this fair re gion. The Journal cannot see that its es teemed western contemporary is at all presumptuous In asking political recog nition in this matter of the governorship There Is no argument needed on the question of the character of the gentle man named. General Davidson, who would worthily represent this State In any position which might be tendered him, and there would seem a political fitness in giving the far western section a political recognition In this guberna torial matter, and no doubt at this time inch a recognition, in giving thit see tion the governorship, would prove wise policy, In its Influence upon fnture political exigencies which are now cer tain to arise. But Is the Democratic party ot North Carolina at present seeking wise politi cal policies, or taking any heed of Its future? If It to there Is no outward sign of It, for It Is In power, enhampered by any other party, which may even threaten lti present office holdings. There to no political cloud In the hori zon which may portend that a distur bance may come from outside. At pres ent It to sufficient onto itself," and its leaden see nothing to warrant serious consideration at the Asheville Citizen suggests, or the sacrifice of possible of fice holdings, on the part of those who believe they can . name, and therefore secure the election of the men whom they shall ask to be nominated for State offices. I. : , The Democratic leaders In this State, even with a political power which ap pear! to have neither present nor future limitations, cannot afford to be heedless or Indifferent, and certainly the plea from the Citizen is entitled to every Just and fair recognition, and a consider ation which may now be mora hidden than ' oar - esteemed ... contemporary states. 1 1; ' ?:"-LT J - f ; What's .In a Name. .-.
