C, JUNE 17, 1882. Entered at the Post' office at New Berne, N. C a second-class aiailer. Do We Want a Graded School ,orNot? This question haa been put to us so often since the Journal opened on it, that we have concluded to commit our-, selves once for all and say positively '"yes and no." ' -Yes, if we can get a: good solid financial basis on which to build an institution that will not be en tirely free school, i and in which the mental gymnastics of the modern labor Wiving system of 1 teaching ' shall ' not crowd out the old-fashioued method by wbJch thfiupfl has to work over every i stone that ne layar - But most emphat-ically-"" no" jif . we are to have a glitter-; ing pfaste-board structure. built upon the shifting sand of private contribution,1 eked out by the public school fund and the incomes' of the Newbern Academy and tbeQriffin School ;tn which teacliers and nuprls will, like the Turkish huck- ster, cry aloud "In the name of thei Prophet Figs," sacrificing solidity to -'Dhow and exhibiting an its best .pupils those who have the best memories ,and can quickest use the superficial knowl-; wgft; acquired by -collecting isolated; I'.K ls tiud learning answers to questions. ,,, On principle we are. opKseil to free' tuition beyond the .rudiments; if a, hoy' has been taught to read,," write and .cy iihee to the rule of three; lie has the 1mIh put into his hands with which he I can'hewt'nis ashler; .into any shape that' hi circumstances will permit. AWrtVtf- :- 1 We gi v e t Iip above ext ra tt , from a n editorial' in ;' the , yenbcriiian of .nine .:u written by Mrs, Mary P.ayard Clarke," whose icriniNsion we have for asing her name. We make the extract and will, eminent on it, not in, the spirit . of eontro .Vfw.vfor.we regaVtl the school Is sue here as too momentous to Iks led .off into" a 'controversy on minor do-: tail.i--hut to kIiow; that here- is nothing in the objections offered that . cannot and . ought not to be smoothed away by arguments tiart lyj and by concessions if concession shall be necessary to accomplish the object intended. L ' Mrs. Clarke opposes the Graded School 'if we are to have a glitter ing jMste-board structure built upon the shifting sand of private contri bution eked! out;; byj the public school fund .and the incomes of the Newbern Academy and the Griffin school."' ", '.V .,'' . . " . 7 . ' Let us see if this objection can not be met for "it is a serious ob jection if it is a "paste-board structure," : and '. oiie built ' npon ..';'8lhifting,gandf7..:,.TJe question, of a solid financial basis is a most im portant one, and Mrs. Clarke ' does well iu directing public attention to the matter before the first step is taken'. Now to the question .'of debit-and credit. A Graded Scluiol in New lieriie with ten teachers' and 500 pupils .'will require not less than G,000per annum to cairy.it on. The Golds toro School,' just closed; cost $(, 000 but this included rent of build ing which would be saved here. The money to, run the Goldsboro School, ' as we' gather from the Mmnengeri waa obtained from these Rources: , $l,i00 from the Peabody fund, $2,250 from pminon school fund, 1450 donation from the city, 200 donation'' from the ' county, j.8300 from paying pupils, and the remainder from the Graded School tax, widcli "jt ,'ig estimated, will rea Ike some 12,200. - ' For, the f New- Berne . school .we fan count on aliout $1,000 from the :Afadf,oiy fund, $500 ! from the Grif fin fund, $1000 i from the com mpn .school fund, lijlOO'O'a the ,, Tea- body fnndy donaiiona from city and county, if heeded, SsOO; ; and $500 JVoiri paying 'pupils, making total of H,p00 and leaving1 a bal- ir ' f n,m,t&. be . raised, from r sources. . . . - : Si this "flOO M'e'anggest theready spoken; the-Pnblie School following plan which- will meet Mrs. Clarke's objections (and in deed is suggested in her article) when she sayi she "is. opposed to free tuition beyond the rudiments.'? In this school of- fiOfr pupils there will lie ten or eleven grades of pu pils, running from the a-b-e.cluldren to those, studying Book-keeping, rractical . Chemistry, r Iatin and Greek. The; first six grades, , will probably take up 350 of the pupils leaving about 150 in the higher classes.. Let tuition ' for the 350 be absolutely, free, and let jlhe lSO in the. higher grades pay a ;very small tuition say $5.00 r per ses sion and the money is thus easily Vaised. , v . , This plan will work without any trouble, for as a rule , those pu)ils who are advanced in their studies are generally well 'able to pay, and the small tuition suggested would amount to nothing compared w ith the -many benefits to be gained from this great school. -' ' This school would become a power in New Berne. Instead of getting only $500 from pajlng-pitpils as we have put down, we believe, that not les-t than 100 pupils would be drawn hero from' the county ; ol Craven and the adjoining counties. Goldslwro draws only;$500 liecHU'se slie is entirely; surrounded by first class schools: Raleigh on ,tlte i.oho side draws from Johnston and Samp son ''and iiiiplinj Wilson,,, on the north, draws from.'-Greene, and. a poition of Wayne; and the excel lent 'schools at La Grangedraw from Dupliii, Greene and lower .Wayne. Hur New Berne would have a rival only on . one sidiwKinstpn-r-and nothing in the way of obtaining an imniense patronage lrom. a dozen of the lower counties which trade here, ami whose citizens would naturally semi their children lo school here if a first-class whool should be in operation. " And just there is where the great difficulty is going to come from in this Gnulwl School. Are the lead-. eis of thought, and enterprise in New Berne able and willing to for-' gef former differences aud unite in starting tills Graded Scliool as it should be lone ? If they go into it with jirejudices for or against any particular man, the whole mat ter will he a failure. If they are willing to yield everything else for the good of Xeic Heme and the edu cation of poor children in this city, there is no danger of its being a pasteboard structure. It can be shown that this . scliool will be worth, . directly, $10,000 a year to the city of New Berne, and indi rectly, an: untold, amount to the ma terial prosperity .- of - this section. And,- when added to this, the ques tion of philanthropy (where it will not cost a cent) towards the poor of the city 'is "considered, the school question becomes a most momen tous one. . What, say our leaders will they not take hold of the ques tion and make it a success t 4 i The County Superintendent'sl ' - Report ... Ve published a few days ago the report of Mr. John S. Ixmg, the County Superintendent of Public Instruction in 'Craven county. The report was interesting and showed that education in Craven under Mr. Long's direction has received an impetus that bids fair to put this county among the first in the State in educational matters. - We are pleased to see that the . increase in attendance on the part of the pupils has run up more , than iiO per cent. This increase;: shows the spirit awakened muler the new order of things ; and under. Mr. Ixing's, or similar intelligent supervision, this public spirit will be fostered and encouraged until great good will result. ''-''Si In reference to the use of, the wunty public "school fuiid tor ifew Berne, he gives his assent and con currence to the project' of uniting this mind wit n ottier avauaoic school monies in New Berne and iistablifihing a Graded School for the city. ... We have no . doubt t ha t the Tnbl ic l Sc hool . Com mi tl ee in New Berne will be willing to j adopt his 8nggestioU---and thus we -now have the assent of two ol the Ithree factors in making the start on this ' question. The Griffin Fund, through Mr. W. 1L Uliver, .: nasal Fund is iiow. tendered,, and ii only '"p'f TT -wants -the assent of, the . Academy s lu i jl'J AV I J Fund to bring the matter to a point. " i A ,Wthen the; Academy Trustees have; sjiokeii then - the modus operftudi may lie considered." First we must get thfi consent of all the parties to ' starf the.Graded School aiu, then; we em liegin to talk of the ftwin its management. -Y1 AVhat eay the Trustees of New Berne M Academy t WTiUJ;hey not pass u iresolutioiii. at their next meeting,' agreeing to unite their money .. wit h nil other available school funds, 1 in fTew Berne for the pnqose of enrryirig on in this city a Graded School ol the very highest order ) ' . : " True Blue. There are ao Liberals, in Edgecombe. The Liberal Convention at Raleigh had only Republicans to represent this county. Tarboro Southerner. At the County Convention held here on Tuesdav, Majors. John Hughes congratulated the Democ racy of Craven that there were no Liberals in this county; that the Democrats here, and in other, coun ties similarly situated, were Dem ocrats from principle, tine to party through evil as well as good report, and therelore deserved. . recognition from the State Democracy in bes towing its offices.-- : ; - Now since the. Democrats- in Kdgeeoinlie have been rewarded with the nomination tor Judge," will they not, unite wilh. Cr.iven in se curing for her -honored choice, the nomination for ;;Coiigressman-at- large f . The Jovrnal -urged sever al weeks, ago that Craven aiid Hdgecoinbe had .j the .strongest! claims tor Democratic recognition of any counties in the second dte, trict the others all ha ve had at dif ferent times, a share in the offices and now: sidce justice has , been given ldge(;t)nibe, let a similar act be done for Craven. " ' And let it be remembered that Craven,' would not ask,' it unless she had ii: man with every qiuilification necessary to meet the occasion. The Journal, in thus advoca ting the nomination of Hon. C. C Clark, is working, not in the inter ests of party, but of eastern Caro lina. We would be glad, to see Mr. llnbbs get the nomination for Con-! gress from his .party, for his interests are identified, with this sectiou and his record has shown him to be capable randi efficient. And we would, seek to unite the eastern Democracy in pushing' the name of a New Berne man who will do honor Jo fiistown, to his section, to his State and. to the dominant party, ' that controls , the,' State.
