EXACTLY TO THE POINT.

If professional politicians and
chronic -ofhce-seekers and perennial
teat-suckers are placed on the Rail.
road Commission, then the people will
abandon all hope of proper results.
Men of practical sense and Judgment
men o.. information as to railroads
and who have brains enough to. under.
stand after proper study the system
they shall undertake to supervise; men
of unquestioned character who are
above purchase or improper influences,
and who willdoetheir duty in the fear
of God and from a high sense of oh.
legation, are the men to be chosen tc
have charge of an experiment that
may prove Of great advantage to the
people or may do an infinite amount
of evil Wal. Star.
We take the above from our able
contemporary, the Star, and he could
not have expressed it more clearly OF
better if he had written a whole
column. The PROGRESSIVE FARMER and
the people endorse every word of it,
and we hope the Legislature will take
the same view of this important
matter.

in progressive education. Teaching
is, or should be, a science. We be-
heve that a well appointed training
school for teachers would add more to
the efficiency of our system than any
thing that has been proposed for a
quarter of a century, and by the plan
presented in the bill, it would not re-
quire the additional appropriation of
a single dollar.
Then there is another important
view Of the matter. It opens up a
new facility for our poor girls to ac-
quire proficiency in the science of
teaching, and thereby enables them to
render valuable service in this great
field of usefulness, and to make, an
honest living. Say what We will of
our chivalrous regard for woman, land
this is the just and proudest boast of
our manhood) the neglect and failure
in our system of education to provide
for their liberal education is a stigma
on our civilization.
The State for a hundred years has
done well in providing for the educa-
tion of boys-not as well as it should
what has it. done for its noble
young women? "The hand that rocks
the cradle moves the world" The
mother moulds the mind of the child.
Give the noble girls of the State
those who are not able to go to Cur
expensive colleges, a chance to get an
education, and thus build up a power
that will be the bulwark of our safety
and virtue as a State. This is a sub
ject well worthy the profoundest con-
isideration at the hands of our Legis-
lature.

FACTS

[[.. : : ~ FF
I A S per census report Of 1880 we
Afnd there were293, sos personsli V-
ing in other States of the Union who
were born in North Carolina, while
there were only 55,l97 living in the
State who were born outside our bor-
tders, leaving a net balance to our
loss Of 234, 308. Looking further,
we find that there were %, 1874 more
females than males in the State, by
taking the whole population, but look
ing at the census of school children
j(ages 4 to 18) we find that of these
the number of males exceeds the
number of females by $500 (which
lis now as per report of Superintend-
ient of Public Instruction 1851.
Again we see that the increase in
white population in the State for the
two decades ending with the year
1880, was only 1872 per cent, while
the colored increase was 1923 per
cent and Indian increase 5.35 per
cent. Should not these facts
claim the serious attention Of
every member of our General Assem-
IDLY at this time? Do not the state
ments furnish proof that the men, the
white men, the wealth-producing men
of our State are leaving us by thou
sands ? And is it true that we can do
nothing to stop it Who will move
first with a remedy =?

WHAT A FARMER AND A FISH
ERMAN IS DOING.

FVERYBODY has heard of the
Egreat fisheries on Albemarle Sound
at Avoca, and who has not heard of
the hospitality of one of the great
fisheries men, DR.. VIM. r. Capehart ?
Well, the continued and increasing
interest in that section and the grow
ing number of visitors has compelled
the enterprising owner of one of the
finest water views of the lovely bay
to build a hotel for the good people.
He has finished it, and on the 18th,
18th, 18th and 10Th days of April, is
going to throw it open to his friends.
A trio of Governors, headed by His
Excellency and fanked by Vance and
Jarvis, and Senators of the United
States, with Ransom as spokesman,
and .disors from a distance and at
hons. Ashe. Daniels, Polk,
Cree5g end others. Lit. Gov. Holt,
SpeaSor I,eazar, the distinguished
agrcaltGrist, Sid. B. Alexander; the
fish authority. Col. Mcdonald, Col.
Skinner, and other distinguished citi-
zens will honor the occasion. There is to
be sailing, shing 6, yacht racing, seining,
cunning, horse racing, fox chasing.
The ladies will be out in force and
boats will run every hour to Edenton
and Plymouth. Oyster boats and
clam bakes, music and dancing and
moonlight picnics on the water. Such
is a part of the programme which
The Progressive FARMER will print
In due time. We predict that it will
be the most superb and the most
thoroughly enjoyable entertainment
ever given by a private citizen in our
State.

is understood throughout the
i State the farmers in the Legisla-
ture will be. held responsible for
whatever is done or omitted by this
Legislature. 1t therefore. behooves
them to watch strictly their own votes
and also the action Of the body on all
measures. They should do nothing
nor leave undone nothing which they
as a class cannot defend and justify.
The huge pile of architectural I'M
comeliness, located on Blount street,
is an object which they should ap-
preach with great caution. There is
a magazine of political dynamite
concealed within its capacious walls.
Our neighbor, the Meas and Obser-
DER figures it to have cost already
largely over $50, 600. He says it will
cost SIS, 900 to finish it and $40, 600
to furnish it and $4,000 a year to
keep it up. The PROGRESSIVE FAR
MER is of the opinion that the estimate
of our neighbor is too low. So the
house will cost finished and furnished,
the sun of SIS, 900, according to his
estimate and then $4,000 "a year to
keep it up. The Legislature two
years ago did not take any action
looking to it's completion. Are our
State finances in better condition now
than then ? Are the farmers, who
bear the burthen of our taxes, in
better condition now than then to
bear the tax necessary to complete
and furnish it ? Farmers of the Leg
islature, answer these two questions
on your best judgment and act &C
cordingly. sas @

Bro. j. A. Cameron, of Warren

or some of your correspondents give
some information about the grub in
our cattle, produced from the larva of
the gadfy? I have heard of them all
my life, but never paid them any at
tentlon until recently. Ny little son.,
working two steers about two years
old, observed a number of wounds on
one of the steers; went to work and
got twenty-five grubs out of his back.
Are they not injurious to the cattle (?
Some have said not, but that does not
seem reasonble to me, for they must
subsist on something. | had all of nv
cattle examined and found many of
them were infested with the grub.
Please give US the desired information.
Bro. G. S. Kemp, writing from
Earpsboro, says: You gave US the
expenses of several different depart
ments in the last issue of your valuable
paper, but you omitted to give the
expenses of u p~enitentiary. I know
the salaries are high, and I find in
B~ranson's almanac, that there are thir-
teen officers and that the Board of
Directors is composed of nine persons.
Three would do-fve is plenty. There
are too many men in Office in the State
drawing salaries. Half of the number
can do the business they all do. Please
tell me the use of nine directors at the
penitentiary when five can do what
nine do? There are too many men
in Office in the State and they all get
pay, and, nine times out of ten, thew
are men who can live without an Office.
Help us to get rid of all such unneces-
sary and expensive ornamental append
ages.
W. w. Edwards writes to say
that Loves Greek Alliance, No. sos,
is in a prosperous condition and the
prospect for success is all that we
could desire. It is now believed that
farmers can organize, and when they
do, they are a power in the land.
"Our Alliance endorses Osgood ALI
ance petition to the Legislature. No
tax no vote. We feel the need of the
State Agent, and hope the $50, 900
will soon be raised. Money is scarce
with us and it takes about all of
dollars to buy corn. The prospect is
good for a bountiful harvest. Be
patient, brethren, and faithful; all pull
together and you will see the saliva
ton of the laborers, and our smoke
houses and cribs nearer home. We
are expecting much of the present
Legislature; if it can't pass many
good laws, give the bad ones the black
eye, and save the Alliance.

assumes that a Commission would
construct or hamper" the building Of
roads. He does not know, perhaps,
that Just such talk was freely INDUCED
in the State of Georgia, when a Rail:
road Commission bill was pending in
its Legislature. But the bill passed,
the fare was dropped from fve to three
cents per mile by this Commission,
and it took charge of the freights and
tariffs on all the roads, What has
been the result? Where is all the
widespread ruin that was so gloom
1ingly depicted and which would surely
follow the enactment of the law ?
Georgia has built more miles of rail
way since the enactment of the law
than ever before in her history, with
in the same period of time. The peo-
pie are contented and the railroads
are satisfied and prosperous. The bill
before our Legislature, and which we
think will pass, is essentially the
Georgia bill, but is fairer, perhaps, to
the roads than the Georgia bill. That
such a law would cripple the roads, is
iall a mistake. It would have no such
effect. The interests of people
demand a Commission, and the Legis-
lature knowing this, is going to give
it to them.

H SCHOOL L

SUPERINTENDENT Finger and
Dthe teachers throughout the State
asked for the normal schools to be
abolished, and to use the fund now
appropriated to them for the purpose
of running teachers Institutes in the
various counties. They also asked
that $4,000 of the school fund be di-
verted and applied to the establish
lishment of a central training school
at some. good, healthy point, where
board could be had cheaply, for the
purpose of training teachers hoVt to teach.
This sum will be supplemented by the
Peabody fund. There is an evident
disposition on the part of some mem
bers of the Legislature not to grant
this latter request, tho we are glad to
note that the Joint Committee on Ed
ucation has approved it. AS a friend
to education, and especially the edu-
cation of the masses, and more espe-
cially the education of the female
teachers of our State, THE PROGRESS

members of the Legislature were in
attendance, and a large crowd of Wis
itors. Gov. Fowle and others deliv-
cred speeches that all received with
pleasure, and the young men acquit-
