New Bern, N. C, April 3, 1906. INCREASEO EDUCATIONAL ROOM DEMANDED Every person who goes about New Bern, or notes the people upon the streets, will affirm that the population of this city ia on the increase. But i' any citizen will take the school census, note the report of last year, and go over the list of pupils at the graded school, it will be more apparent that the city is on the increase, in popula tion. r The Journal has previously called at tention to the need of increased facili- tiesatthe graded school, to meet the in- eotniiig pupils, as well aa to comfort ably provide for those already enrolled. The fact is that already the lower grades are in a congested state at the graded school, with the teachers hav ing to teach classes far beyond the number, in pupils, where teaching can i m effective. .': The teacher ia not to blame.' The pupil must enter the grade hit knowledge places him in. The sr perintendent cannot help teacher or pupil, in , their .crowded condition Where is the remedy, except in increas ed building room ! And if today, the teachers of the lower grades are so se . verely taxed and the rooms so crowded with pupils, what will next year bring ? Besides this congested, overcrowded ; condition in the lower grades of the school, there is no meeting hall, no au . ditorium in which public exercises might be held, where lectures could be given, or some educational exhibition at which at least one-half of the pupils might attend, and be profited, along educational lines. At present there can be no school spirit, that fraternal feeling which is aroused, stimulated and cultivated to a splendid growth, , where pupils meet together in numbers, and come in close touch, and together join in educattonal exercises. At it is at present each room is by " itaelf. Pupils meet to be sure on the play ground, but there is no auditorium hall where half a dozen grades can . gather and join in exercises that will ; arouse their ardor for education, as would a meeting on the campus arouse their sporting ardor. And in this way, in large gatherings, will be aroused a better local spirit, one of pride for the city which provivea so well, and from such gatherings would be developed an educational spirit which would sweep through this city and section, and prove , of inestimable value in its results. -Increased school facilities should be -looked after now, for the present con gested Condition needs relief, not to tke into account the future demands which will be made upon the resources ' of the graded school of this city. GREENSBORO'S JUST CLAIMS FOR , CONVENTIONS " ' While the Journal does not claim to be the first newspaper to advocate the change in place of holding the State conventions, yet it was very early an advocate in urging that the Democratic State conventions beheld in Greens boro, in preference to Raleigh, The reason ior this change was for the sake of the accommodation of dele gates and viators, which Raleigh had never been able to afford, and which " - -l,oro promised to give and did a, vthen the convention met there. Ta thi.se who have to attend large ; ' nmrs, end ppeoiiilly such a gath- a tie I ii-iniHTtti ic State Conven t' v. : H iis t'iou iiin.'fl, the question of i ' ..; t h a matter of mo L. t r ' 'i it was In the days oa the part of a few persona, to agitate for a change But before a change ahould be asked for, it ought to be proven that the present convention city, Greensboro, had failed to meet the acquirements or would fail. Has this been proven T Not by any means, for Greensboro has and can provide the hall for thousands to meet in, and also the hotels where the thousands may be comfortably housed and fed, and all this at no extravagant cost These are the claims of Greensboro, offered today, this year, and justly carried oat, as of fered in the past. It is a few hours longer . travel from Eastern Carolina to Greensboro, than it was to Raleigh, but no eastern man made complaint on this score, for the traveler could feel certain of accommo dation when he reached Greensboro. And this year those of this section will with equal assurance, go to the Gate City, at convention time, with no fears but that they will comfortably and fairly entertained in that wide awake and progressive city. . A SELF-SUFFICIENCY CITIZENSHIP It is not unusual to- find individuals who have perfectly satisfied opinions of their own ability, and their personal itanding in a community. What may be termed, self -flatuency, is no un common complaint. It ia found in the home, in the office, private' and public, and even on the stage, and in politics. This individual self-flatuency in most instances ia ludicrous, to the other per son. It ia not necessarily harmful, but it is not beneficial, but in the case where it applies as a perfect self-sufficiency in citizenship, makes citizens perfectly content with both themselves and those . about them, asks for no betterment, no change from exising conditions, then it works a community injury. If there is any local complaint worse than another in any community, it ia a self-sufficiency citizenship, for it holds back, retards and dwarfs every pro gressive movement, and discourages every attempt at local improvement and betterment. The men who make up this self-sufficiency citizenship class, have comfortable conditions, with no financial troubles. Their livelihood is assured, therefore any local development, and important growth, means some change in their methods. Business with them produces a gain of enough per cent, while if a change in local growth should" come, it would mean competition, more active trade conditions, which would disturb these self-sufficient citizens. Or if the development should be one demanding improvements, that would mean addi tional taxes, and two things most ab horrent to a self-sufficiency citizenship, is more active trade, with competition, and increase of taxes, regardless of the improvement demands. Like the individual afflicted with self flatuency, who needs some incident or accident to rid him of this complaint, in order that his real ability may prove of practical and unselfish value in the work), so does a community need rid ding of its self-sufficiency citizenship, in order that there may be local better ment, progress and growth, to the good of every one, and the cessation of the drag to advsncemeut, which a self sufficiency citizenship causes. Pending the formal installation of Ambassador Bellamy Storer's successor all intercourse with Austria-Hungary will be carried on through its embassy at Washington. New't TM?

(Special Correspondence.) ,- ' ' Greensboro, March 30. The Pence letter from Washington, publibhed in the Raleigh News and "Observer, in which it was stated that many among the delegations were objecting to hold ing the next State Convention in Greens boro, because the Convention ' hall was entirely too large and permitted so many delegates comfortable seats, it was hard on the orators to be heard rather surprised people, here, who had thought it. was a" good thing for the party and delegates, that all who carr.e could find not only hotel accommodations but could have the poor privilege of being admitted into the convention hall, and the old excuse, "there is not room for all," ceuld no longer be urged as had been the case so of I en at former conventions.; Everybody knows how ever, that the Convention held two years before, had plenty of room in the Opera House, which could be nsed again this year, without subjecting Greensboro to the Raleigh criticism of furnishing too large a hall last year. WbileGreensboro is intent on securing the convention this year it has be comingly had little to say about any ef fort it made two and four years ago, aflrr pettirg the convention to make the delegates feel a hearty welcome. Many papers from o her townc, how ever have remembered it and are now placing Greensboro under grateful ob ligations, by generously recalling the successful results of those efforts. ; Of all these recent editorials on this sub ject one in the Wilmington Messenger and the Charlotte Chronicle were pecu larily apropos, and highly appreciated here:' i, " " - J,-' :' i" ''The Democratic patriot who at tended the last State convention at Greensboro cannot but help contrast conditions there as they have been in Raleigh for years past. In Greensboro there was a warehouse covering about half a block. It was beautifully deco rated and the seating arrangement was as good as any architect could have made it. It was a warm June day and the great hall was packed, but there were electric fans, there were pyramids of ice in the aisles and outside the firemen kept streams of water playing on the roof. Never was a more comfortable State convention held. How was it in Raleigh? All ' who have attended a State convention the know. A crowd ed hall, ill ventilated, packed to suffo cation, for windows, foul air and no ice or electric; fans, we know this every State convention held in Raleigh since the war has resulted in more or less discord. The first Stlte conven tion held in Greensboro, while one the most hotly contested in the history of the Democratic party in this State, was at the same time the most harmo nious on record and the result was unanimously endorsed. Everybody want horn whooping for the ticket in its entirety. Even the anti-Winston fellows laughed about it. No such una nimity as that ever followed a Raleigh convention. , " "The Democratic committee is to meet in Raleigh next week to fix the time and place for holding the next State convention. The time is imma terial, but the place ia important . As we view the mattar, Greensboro has come forward with claims that can not for a moment be questioned.; One vote ought to settle the matter aa to the place for holding the convention, for, from all viewpoints, there is but one practicable place, and that is Greens boro." 4 South bound train, 29, of the South ern Railway, arriving here at 7 o'clock last evening had a private car attached in which were Mrs. Theodore Roosevelt and children going to Fernandink, Fla. " , .' The plans are being made and will be submitted to contractor at an early date for bids on the construction of the new buggy factory to be established In the eastern part of the city by Messrs. J. R. and E. M. Oettinger, of Kinston, both of whom have been here for sever al days arranging for the launching of this enterprise in Greensboro. J i The Bright Side of Matrimony i ' Stewart Cutting contributes another of her little classics of married life to the April McClure's. These stories" are absolutely unique, and yet they are so full of truth that they strike a respon sive chord in the heart of about every one who. reads them. "A Symphony -m' Coal" is a story of every day Amer ican men and women, and in the inci dent on which it hinges, ia one of the small misunderstandings that occa sionally disturbs the married quarters; but how describe the charm, the con stant appeal of this story T The p!am truth appears to be that the "Uide people" are our people the ordinary, every-day sort, who really live and breathe, and whoae littlo lives interest us a whole kit more than iniRj;innry princess adventures.
