The delayed season has. caused less attention to be paid to local unclean liness, than is the case when a hot; rainy spring promotes decay, and fills the air with offensive odors and with disease breeding germs. It is not that New Bern is more unkempt or unclean than usual. There is a continual su perficial alley and street cleaning pro cess going on, and it may be because of this regularity, that householder and the citizens, generally, are care less or indifferent, and throw refuse from their own premises outside, no matter where it may fall. House cleaning and lot cleaning oiieu finds its limit, when rubbish is swept out doors, or is thorwn over the fence, to be subject to the wind or pa&sen-.by that may scatter it along the alloy aa-1 sl.'-ojr. In tJ'-J ai.'!.i by oa-".! lis projjr uci.i i!e;-r,r:ncnt of iUh Wom an's Ciib, to kfBii pieces of nuper off U.i! i-:-cur-. a : caa reol;ul-e wereplii'l or certain prominent corners, so that those who were iu the habit of throwing - papers on the street, coHld instead drop them into these receptacles, and so keep the streets free from such rubbish. These receptacles seem to have disappeared, that is, so far as their use is coucern ed. They were not stolen, just re moved to side passage-ways, or se cluded places, and became in some ways a dumping place for private property rubbish. That such recepta cles are very much needed, for con stant use, can be seen by any one who passes the postoffice, along Pollock to Middle street, and a glance In the Episcopal church yard, in spite of the efforts of the yard cleaner for that c,hurh, shows how ' many persons carelessly throw letters, paper wrap pers and mail of every description on the sidewalk, "Into the street, .or over a fence. " It costs just the thought and no effort, to hold these pieces of mall, while the scattering of them means the cost of gathering them up, by the city and ' the , church people, at the same time presenting a most un- . umy unj, uiiLii tiiov vau . urn utavu 'away. . - No city can be kept clean and pre sentable in looks unless every citizen, from the householder to the person walking the street, gives assistance. Rubbish from yards, and papers from mall and packages must be held and . placed in such receptacles, that they become no further nuisance. ' This would .mean a systematic clean up, - therefore a thorough one, and- the present paper and ' rubbish filled streets, alleys and yards would ' be free, and the city have an orderly and weli kept look, -and there would be . nearly absolute cleanliness. , ,, ,, ' WHAT IS BE 11IS D THE RAILROAD . BATE COSIEST! ' What Is behind the railroad contest, engaging attention In many states, which seeks to overthrow the two cent passenger rate, that has recently paused and become a law In these states? It hardly seems possible that the general refusal on the part of the railroads, to accept the legislation nr.l.Ing the two cunt pamengor rate, Id i ure!y antagonistic. That these C"i'i :oi aUuiiR, having f-.l.i' l the con-re- Um from the people, iiiaMug !r prowth and prosperity roimible, i v i ' . t 1' .) power, s 'i i i i ve 1... i! ', on upry- signing the two cent passenger rate bill, said the. new act would be more prolific in litigation, than any act passed in recent years. From Kansas comes the report, that should the rail- j roads win In Nebraska, In their fight against two cent rate, the board ot railroad commissioners of Kansas would order a reduction of all fares in that state to a two cent basis. In North Carolina, on the two and one quarter cent ' rate, the contest is strong, while in Virginia, the tail roads are contesting on the two cent rate. Thus It Is evident, that the peo ple are determined in their legisla tive enactment, to make the railroad charge Just the amount the law says shall be the rate charged. . " " Continued war on the part of the railroad people, can have but one re sult in the end, government owner ship of the railroad properties. The seriousness ot the people In this fight, the practically unanimous sentiment everywhere In the country . for the permanent establishment of a , two cent passenger rate, ought to show the railroad people, that such a rate is to be, and that attempts to thwart the law, to evade or to seek to prove it unconstitutional is certain to prove a failure. If the corporations are so drunk with their apparent power this wealth seems to confer, they may bring about their own destruction by a continuation of the contest They may pull down the house, but they will be found buried In its ruins. To the looker on, the contest against the lower passenger rate, as bow estab lished in the several states, looks like a case of self-destruction on the part of the railroads. TIME TO BEGIN TO GET BEADY, The above admonition given to the educational Interests of this city, or to those tew people who were gather ed at the opera house last Friday morning, by Dr. Bruce Payne, in his admirable address, should prove a warning to every friend of education in New Bern. But who are the friends of education? Ask the question gen erally, and there will be a chorus of affirmative responses from every por tion of th$ city. Make the question individual, where a personal interest is demanded, and the smallness of the crowd, will be a shock to every one, who possessed a spark of local pride. The attendance at the opera house Friday morning proves this, further supplemented by the attendance at the reception at the graded school on Friday night Are there no men and women who attend commencement ex ercises must have been Dr. Payne's Inward comment, as he looked over his audience, Friday morning T Are there no school trustees who can at tend, at least the commencement ex ercises, if not occasionally the school sessions during the year, would be the mental observation of any one at all familiar with the attendance of these gentlemen, durfcg.the year. There were four at the commencement ex ercises, where were the twenty? It would be a shame to say how many trustees were not present at the re ception, Friday night If the trustees do not attend, It can not be a surprise that other so-called friends of education are not to be seen at school or at commencement time. Even parents are slow in this most vital matter, who is teaching, and what is being taught, 'and how Is It being taught, their children. Pro fessor Craven and his assistants and teachers, are paid for their 'services. Is this all? Does this satisfy any father, any mother, that those who teach their children, are paid? . What are the teachers doing tor tie child ren, Is vastly greater In Importance to every parent, than the complacent fact that Professor Craven and his helpers In the graded school, receive the salaries promised them. It is time to begin to get ready, and get away from the false impression, that New Bern is It, educationally. It is this delusion, that has laughed at the temerity of other places daring to try for the Eastern Carolina Training school, against New Bern. Other cities In this section are ready, where New Bern? It is not flattering to have such a speaker as Dr. Payne, tell us to pre pare to get ready. It is rather a bump to our self-esteem, when a newspaper in an up-to-date city, of this state says, "New Bern needs some one to kick It." But it seems that a good bump, would help things, locally. This city is not finlHhed, though some peo ple here may think so. 1jt out side, go away snd see cities, that have got r-iu!y arid i! : U.ings, and are doing l- ' i, si 1 to 'Vcr etrp.-i t to bo fini;,Ji- '- ' I .: i to le f ' 1, fur v ' 1 I t I 1,1 1 .
