COME SOUTH YOUNG MAN.

A dispatch to the Washington
Post says:
Mr.. Frederic Taylor, a banker, of
New y ork, who accompanied Messrs
Cooper, Hewitt and Innman on their
recent trip South, estates that the
South was a revelation to him.
ut seems to me-" says Mr.. Tay-
lor, "that we travelled through q
continuous and unbroken strain OF
what has been aptly termed the
music of progress-the whirl of the
spindle, the buzz of the saw, the
roar of the furnace, the throb OF the
locomotive"
To the young men of the South,
Mr.. Taylor accords high praise for
fhe work which they are doing, and
to ''the eager, earnest, restless, driv-
ing energy which seem to fill them. !"
F'The South" says Mr.. Taylor,
"to my mind is only on the thresh
old of its boom. 1t has every pos
sible advantage, everything that God
can give.
"The new South has been built
up by the indomitable energy and
by the hard work of the Southern
people themselves. To any young
man to-day, of pluck and grit, with
the world before him and his future
to make, [ should say, Go South,
young man, go South
Mr.. Taylor is a shrewd, observing,
level-headed business man who has
travelled, and this deliberate EXPIRES
sion of his is no sympathy act. :"
1t is a good advice, and is likely to
bear fruit.
We have long held TO the opinion
that the South is the garden spot of
the United States, and there is no
portion of it that offers better induce
nents to immigrants or presents a
more inviting field for the invest
of outside capital than the Piedmont
section of North Carolina.
Young man, come South

that appears to great advantage on
commencement day, but he is de-
pendent on his books. He cannot
make his tools, nor do without them.
He has studied the index to the book
of learning, not the volume itself.
It would have been better for him
self, like the apprentice in a small
repair shop, had he fewer tools and
learned more how to use those he
possessed.
1t is undoubtedly a kindly and
good thing to try to popularize diff
fcult studies and to awaken an in
terest IN scientific subjects through
the publication Of simple textbooks
giving general principles in popular
form, but parents and teachers
should be careful not to misuse these
aids to higher education of the
masses. They should not attempt,
merely because they have machine
tools available, to produce too much,
bat should still rely upon bench
practices with hand tools as furnish
ing the best means of training.
1t may even be necessary In the
interests of sound education to abol-
ISL from the school-room altogether
the so-called popular or easy books
as having no educational value
Men pay for learning by study.
There is no flat money that can take
the place of that standard coin.

THE BUsTLE QUESTION.


Brothers Caldwell, Daniels and

sprightliest editors in the State, have
come out squarely in favor of the
hustle and Bro. Webster, bachelor
that he is, squints that way.
Being among the unfortunate I'M
married ourselves, we cannot speak
with the wisdom which comes only
with experience in affairs, but we've
seen enough of this world and its

A WRONG TO RIGHT.

A careful calculation shows that
out OF every dollar of taxes. paid in
the State the white man pays 95
cents while TIE negroes put in the
other 5 cents.-Greensboro Patriot.
And yet the negro schools receive
almost as much as the white schools
and year after year white mems
money is used to educate negroes
and prepare them to vote against cur
best interests-vote to keep up the
high tariff, vote for bad designing
men and against the rule of the best
How long will this kind Of thing
continue? We think it is about time
to call halt. THE SENTINEL is
in favor of educating the white
children first and then if there is any
school-fund left give it to the negroes.
Charity begins at home, gentlemen,
and if the schools for nhite children
which are sadly needed were estab-
lished they would use up every cent
of the meagre pittance which we
here in North Carolina grudgingly
give to the schools. What think
you, brethren of the press, Oh this

A PROPOSED GERRYMANDER.

Dispatches from the South to sew
eral Northern newspapers assert that
Colonel Dudley, of Indiana, has Sc
cured documentary evidence that
Tennessee is republican State" 1t
is stated from Chattanooga that for
the late November election the ma
tional committee sent out coupon
ballots which were distributed to
trusted workers." that at one poll
IN Tennessee 500 of these coupon
ballots were cast and only 200 were
counted, and that enough of these
ballots alone were cast in the State
and not counted to have carried it
by good majority on fair count
for the Republican candidates. These
alleged facts, it is further stated,
have been placed in the hands of
Col. Dudley in documentary shape
and they will be transferred to the
national Republican committee for
use in securing congressional action.
A dispatch from Chattanooga to the
Philadelphia Press says that Col.
Dudley and other lawyers are already
at work on the draft of bill to be
introduced in congress which will
have the effect of largely increasing
the Republican representation in the
South. The plan, according to this
statement is, for Congress to over
ride local authority and divide the
States into congressional districts and
to provide that all the elections for
federal offices shall be under the
control of the federal courts and in
charge Of the United States marshals.
Where the congressional districts are
satisfactory to the Republicans, or
where nothing could be hoped to be
gained, it is not proposed to meddle
with existing arrangements, but it is
believed possible by the Republicans
to secure twenty-five additional Con-
gressmen by the federal gerrymander
of the South. These gains it is cal
culated NAV be secured in Southern
States as follows: Tennessee, 2;
Kentucky, 2; West Virginia, 2;
Virginia, 3; North Carolina, 3; South
Carolina, 2; Georgia, 2; Alabama, 2;
Mississippi, 3; Florida, l; Arkansas,
1; louisiana, 1; Texas, 1. To what
extent it is proposed to apply the
wholesale gerrymander to the rest of
the Union is not stated, but we should
think that the prudence which stays
the hand of the partisan from tread
ing upon the rights of the States in
other sections of the Union would
cause some hesitation before the
plunge Is made in the South. Con-
gress, in providing supervisors and
deputy marshalls and other federal
machinery for congressional cleo
tions in the States, has already gone
to the verge of authority, and it
would be strain upon, if not vi
olation of, the rights of the States to
proceed further in the direction pro-
posed. Any additional assertion of
authority by Congress to regulate
national elections within the States
would be very unfortunate exercise
of power, and most especially so
when based upon partisan reports
and for partisan purposes. Col.
VIM. w. Dudley, of "blocks-of-fiv
notoriety, who is wanted in Indiana
to answer charges of corrupting the
elective franchise, is not an agnt
whose reports will be satisfactory to
the people of the United States, but
it seems to be upon his investigation
alone that the present agitation of a
Southern gerrymander is based.

BISHOP LYMAN,S PEANUT CURE.

"Of two evils take the lesser.
Between peanuts and insomnia
give us insomnia every time. "What
is one mans meat is another's poison"
Peanuts and milk taken jsut before
retiring court the sweet angels Of
sleep for Bishop Lyman, bnt for
the average citizen it invites a host
of little devils and makes sleep an
agony. Since the good Bishop gave
his remedy to the world. paregoric
has been bought in n. G. by the
gallon. One brother editor who
was afflicted with sleeplessness tried
on the remedy and gave his expert
ence as follows: eve awolle in the
morning and discovered in bsd with
US spiral something about the con-
sistency of Virginia clay. We fol-
lowed it up to its source and dis
covered it was our breath. After
reaching for the shears we cut it off.
Since then we have diligently
courted insomnia, lest peanuts and
milk should fall upon us unawares
and end us"
Bishop Lyman's theology is good
for everybody, but his remedy for
insomnia is bad. We've tried it.

had Just paid the last of it, and
they were finally free of debt.
Mr.. johnson patted her on the
shoulder, called her his little bu-
siness manager, and bestowed
other high compliments upon her.
OF late he has not been heard to
say: @Oh, what can women do?''
But instead, he was one day over
heard saying to neighbor jack
son who, by the way, is nearly
eaten out of house aud home by
a big family of lazy boys): 81 say,
Jackson, I've got a good rule for
getting on in the world
What is it?' asked jackson,
who is not much of a success,
financially.
Raise daughters, was the la
comic but expressive answer.
In fact, Papa johnson is as
proud of his daughters now as he
had once been angry with them
for being born
A few days after the mortgage
was paid Charley Brown, who
was still faithful to Sadie, be-
sought that young lady to give
him decided answer, once foi
all. She blushed exceedingly
red, and demuredly said: ASK
papa.
You may easily believe that
Charley was not many weeks in
seeking pa of whom he begged
his daughters hand.
But pa said: What give her
to you? No, indeed. You'd bet
ter ask me for my pocket book,
or my house, than for my bust
ness manager. You'll have to
ask her mother, if you want any
such favors.'
So poor Charlie had to say his
piece all over again to Mamma
johnson, who answered his plead
ings with: Sadie is the one to
please in this matter, and she
can do as she desires.
Sadie pleased to change her
name to that of Brown.
After Charley''s success among
the Amazons;' two other young
men went and did likewise, and the
result was a grand triple wedding
in the Johnson family and a
change of management in the
johnson store.

The other night five or SIX
young men of the listless, self
sufficient variety SO familiar just
now dined together in a private
room at a fashionable restaurant.
After cigars had been lighted one
of them drawIed:
s.I'il bet, fellows, that ] can
throw this knife and 1t Will stick
IN the crack of that door every
time.
He rose from the table and
pointed out the narrow crack
between the door and the iamh,
and showed how he proposed to
place the knife. The five others
approached the place and cried
ont. We take that bet. For
how much?''
81 am to have ten throws.
Each time that / fail pay a $40.
bill; If / succeed in putting the
knife IN the crack ten times, each
of you will pay me the same
sum.
The young man took his posi-
ton, and. with a rapidity and
accuracy that words cannot de-
scribe, executed ten times IN sue
cession this remarkable feat.
When he had finished every
one hnrrahed with delight
Each one of his wagers being
paid, he poclSeted a roll of bills
with a just pride.
esBut how did you ever learn
to do this?" asked one of the
company.
Then he revealed the secret.
For two or three years, having
nothing pressing to do and
anxious to be talked about, he
had given himself up TO patient
practice at this work. Each
morning he locked himself in
his room, and, far. from prying
eyes, he attempted for hours to
put a knife into a hole; he had
to make innumerable expert
ments to measure the distance
required, the force necessary,
and the curve, but his persever-
.ance was inyincible. AT first he
threw the knife into the mouth
of a Chinese jar; then into tl,e
neck of bottle; finally he sue
ceeded in lodging his projectile
in the narrowest opening.
