Tomorrow he will be among the speakers at the Na tional Editorial Association. To the Court of Last Resort Raleigh, N. C, June 10. -Sev eral weeks ago State Superin tendent of Public Instruction Joyner issued instructions to the county superintendents and board of education directing that spe cial taxes be levied to assure a four-months' term in all the dis tricts of all the counties, and in sisting that the schools were clearly "necessary expenses" for which these taxes could be levied in spite of the famous Barksdale case, in which the Supreme Court held to the contrary.

The summer news famine is now on mail its severity ".- A writer in one of the current magazines says that " there is hardly a boy to be found, not even in "Mudville," but that has a sufficient knowledge of the great national game of baseball to know the difference between a sacrifice hit and a pop fly. The writer of the article -doubtless knows a great deal about base: ball, but his knowledge of thous ands of plain, simple American boys is diffident or he would not have made the sleeping state ment There is a baseball team not more than a" hundred miles from ConcOrd and Mt Plensant that play good ball; they play under an "Impire," their pitcher can handle drops, ins and outs, but they have never dreamed of a sacrifice hit a two-bagger, or anything of the kind. They sim ply knock the ball never bat it run to first corner, the other two, too, and land on home base (the only base on the diamond,) if they can. A dishonest game in the way of a stolen base is not permitted, and if a spectator should intimate that a base bad been stolen more correctly speaking, a corner had ' been stolen in all probability he would be called upon to defend himself.

He said thatjn North Carolina the people had only 80 school days to 180 in New England. "It is no wonder that those yankeea can sell our people wooden nutmegs," said Mr. Connor.
