The death of Conkling recalls
many incidents of his career in the
Senate, among them the tilts he had
with Lamar Of Mississippi, and Gordon
ofGeorgia. He denounced them both as
liars, in open session of the Senate.
Gordon made a vigorous attempt to
get at Conkling, but as the latter was
a powerful man and an athlete, the
friends Of the fiery Georgian had little
difficulty in holding him. Neither
had they much difficulty in persuad-
ing Gordon not to send challenge to
the New York Senator.

The Educational Enter
prise.

This enterprise is engrossing a good
deal of attention from the people of this
County, and well it may, for grander
enterprise has not been suggested. We
! have looked carefully over the grounds
, selected as the site for this institution,
and must say that they are extremely
beautiful. They are high, commanding
fine view of the town, and are splendid
ly suited to building purposes. The
grounds are the highest and best portion
of the Carr and Henson farms, with a
small portion of the Pickrel place. All
who see the grounds are well pleased with
them.
The Institution proposed is such as
would reflect credit upon those who assist
ed in its estab lishment, and be source
of inestimable benefit to Jackson County.
While the establishment of a College of
the first-class is too great an undertaking
it is proposed to have School equal in
many respects to the best Colleges, yet
kept within bounds that will render it
self-sustaining and successful; such a
School as will thoroughly fit any young
life. We have not space this week to
speak at length of the plan, but will give
it more attention hereafter. There will
possibly be some objections urged by
very few persons who would per-
NIT personal enmity to, and envy of Mr.
Morgan, to drown any slight degree of
judgment or honor they may have pos
sessed. But the people will of course pay
little attention to such nonsense. Mr.
Morgan as teacher and as man is too
well known to render any recommends
tions necessary in this County at least
In pushing this enterprise, its project
ors are governed by desire to establish
a seat of learning that will elevate the
educational standard of Jackson County,
and give to those unable to 90 to distant
points to take a College course, the oppor-
tunity to thoroughly prepare themselves
near home. In all the essential features
it will be College. Such an institution |
has long been needed in this place, and |
the people now have an opportunity to
aid in securing it. One hundred and six
ty beautiful building sites, containing
1000 square feet each, will be sold, at 5000
each. The payments will be-$5O when
all the lots are sold; 800 when the build
ing is enclosed; $50 when building is
finished.
Now let the people take hold, and say
by their action that such School shall
become one of the attractive features of
Jackson.
