Moody, of Massachusetts, was named as his successor. The passing of Long :auses no regrets here. May W9 never see his like again. Don't forget the good roads meeting to be held in Shelby on the first Monday of court March 24th. The crying need of Cleve land county is better roads. At tnd this mestmg and heai what the experienced good roads speak ers will have to say. Vice-Presi dent Ramaaur should have the hearty co-operation of the pro gressive people of good old Cleve land county in his efforts to do something tor the betterment of our public highways, This town is a moit delightful place, and all that is necessary in order for Shelby to grow rapidly into a city is for the outside world to become better acquainted with her matchless climate, the beauty of her scenery, the wealth of her undeveloped natural resources and the many and varied attractions she has to offer the seeker atter pleasure, health or wealth. Ad mirably located, good railroad fa cilities, surrounded by a fertile and productive soil, which re sponds bountifully to the touch of the husbandmen, and inhabited by a people as hospitable and gener ous as they are honest and pro gresssve Shelby is the ideal place to live and a most inviting field to home-seekers and investors. Look this way and come to Nature's sanitorium and be "healthy, wealthy and wisel" Let's make this a busy city a bee hive of in dustry a thriving, hustling, bust ling municipality, whero business and pleasure are divided into proper proportions, and where a good moral influence prevails. It seems that Col. Bryan never knows when he has said enough. Recently a whole side of ihe Com moner was fired at David B. Hill's candidacy for the presidency, and all because Hill don't endorse ev erything in Kansas City and Chi cago platforms. This constant measuring of a man's Democracy by an absolute and unqualified en dorsement of everything contained in these two platfcrmB makes us mortal tired, and Col. Bryan ap pears to think it is a sin to oppose any portion ot either and still call yourself a Democrat. Perhaps it haB never occurred to him that we had Democratic platforms before either of these deliverances were made, and platforms that appeared to suit the c juutry pretty well too. It might not be amiBs for him to begin to find out that the next Democratic Convention will make a platform differing materially from those adopted by the last two conventions. Let every voter remember that he must pay his poll tax before the first of May. Democrats should see to it that that their taxes are paid so as not to lose their right to vote.

Don't let the Republicans forget that their party has a force bill for the South under discussion in Congress, and that Blackburn and Moody voted for it in the caucus. They may claim that they voted for it in order to defeat the reduc tion of representation bill for the South, but that subterfuge won't answer. If they don't want the force bill passed why can't they have the manhood to come out boldly against it like Hon H. G. Ewart, a Republican, did when he was in Congress? But, ah, Black- urn and Moody are made of infe rior stuff, politically. There ib one consolation the places which know them now will soon know them no more foreyer, after their present terms expire.

At 2 o'olock this morning, as tne steamer was enter ing Lake Palmyra, a sudden storm of cyclonio proportion came out of the west, catching the Providence broadside on. The little vessel was lifted almost entirely out of the water, her upper works blown away and her hull turned bottom side up in 40 teet of water. The victims were drowned like rats in a trap. Only nine of the entire boat's company were saved. The property loss will amount to sev eral thousand dollars. Messrs.

The Mooresboro congregation, intelli gent, eood looking and attentive on yesterday endured length and eanness in a sermon as gooa soi diers. That elegant dinner and graoious hospitality in the. Chris tian home of Bro. Lewis Scoggins, were greatly appreciated and en joyed. The clever wife and loveiy daughters, the family pictures and reminiscences, tne spienaia recora of their useful abseut children, and the account ot the sad death of nrecions dauehter (Mrs. Large) in tha far West, with the winsome presence of her two sweet children, all contributed to tne interest or my short visit.

SPLENDID SHOWING FOR THE year 1901 OVER 1900. News & Observer. . v " Some very interesting school statistics were figured up yesterday in the office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction. They show the great improvement that was wrought in the public school sys tem for 1900 to 1901. The number of white districts'in 1901 was 5,433, and colored 2,559. This was a gain of 61 white and 71 colored districts. There were 5,411 white schools taught in 1901, as against 5,047 in 1900, a gain of 364 ; and 2,418 col ored sobools taught in 1901, as against 2,344 in 1900, a, gain of 74, making a total increase of boo. The total number of sohools taught in 1901 was 7,829, The number of white districts having no school in 1901 was only 72. In 1900 this number was 379. There were 141 colored districts without a school m 1901 ; the cor responding number in 1900 was 144. This shows a tremendous gain in the white schools. There were in 1901 twenty-nine Croaton sohool districts in Robe son county and two in Scotland county. Of these 29 schools were taught. ' 'T Mississippi's Good Example. News & Observer. Mississippi is not so large a State and is not so rich a State as North Carolina, and its proportion of negro population is much larger than North Carolina. The people of that good commonwealth the home of Jefferson Davis, Lamar and George are alive to the edu cational demands of the time, as this statement of the acts of the Legislature shows : "Appropriations of $2,dJU,UUU for the public schools of the State for the next biennial period. This is the largest appropriation ever made in Mississippi for this pur pose. "Increased appropriations lor all the State eduoational institu tions, and providing for the orec tion of new buildings at the Uni versity of Mississippi, Agricultu ral and Mechanical College, Alcorn Agricultural and Mechanical Col lege, Industrial Institute and Col lege. These colleges get about $300,000 more than was given at the last Legislative session." Such magnificent appropriations for education by what has been re garded as one of the most unpro- gressive of Southern btates snows that the people of that State have realized that education must pre cede and go hand in hand with in dustrial progress. Mississippi long step forward is an example for emulation by all the Southern States. Only a Republican Howl. AshaTllle Citizen. Some weeks ago a great howl went up from certain Republican papers over the discovery of the fact that the tax receipts in Wa tauga county contained no poll tax item, and that no voter would be able to prove by his receipt that he had paid his poll tax. 1 hey de clared positiyely these Republi can newspapers that this was a Democratic trick to enable the Democrats to carry Watauga coun ty. Now it turns out that the blanks complained of are gotten up by the sheriff in eaoh county, who contract witn any printers they see fit to have blanks printed, and that the sheriff, oounty com missioners and all other county officers of Watauga are Republi cans. Thev made out the form for their tax receipt, and if tnere is any trick about it, it is,a Republi can trick. We are therefore not likely to hear anything further about the matter from the Republi can papers.
