There is more truth than poetry in

SUSTAIN HIM.

The prejudicial onslaught upon Mr..
Washington Bryan, President of the
Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad,
continues undated. These sort OF
attacks should make Gov. Fowle and
the Directors stick all the closer to
Mr.. Bryan. We have watched his
career for the past three years and can
not see wherein objection can be made
to him. 1t is getting of too common
occurrence for few to combine and
dictate to authority when everything
does not move to suit their wishes.
Again we urge upon those members OF
the Board from this section to sustain
Mr.. Bryan.-HIgA Point Enterprise.

a competitive examination will be held
in the Court House in Henderson to
select such student. The young men
who desire to compete for the scholar
ship, must produce certificates as to
moral character, and inability to pay
tuition, as only such can receive the
appointments. Those who satisfy the
board with such certificates, will be
examined as to their educational pre-

CRIPPLED CONFEDERATES.

The National Weekly, of Chicago,
staunch Republican, and the paper
that originally advocated Harrison for
President, sees no evil to the country
in the movement in certain Southern
States to care for their manned and
disabled soldiers of the late war. To
it there is nothing that smacks of trea-
son or disloyalty to the Union. The
National Weekly is Republican, but
it is respectable. 1t says:
There is something that appeals with
an infinite pathos to every humane per-
son in the thought of the thousands of
disabled and crippled Confederate SOL
diers who are lett stranded wrecks upon
the shores of the new South. For
them their are no soldiers homes and
no pensions, unless their own States
provide them. Undoubtedly privat e
subscriptions North and South would
aid largely in establishing soldiers
home for Confederate veterans. But
it has been suggested that individual
states can do easily what no other
agency can in the passing of state
laws giving pensions to crippled SOL
diers who wore the gray uniform.
Prosperity has now returned to the
South in greater measure than it knew
before the war. Wealth is pouring
into it and new life is regenerating it.
An excellent thing in the midst of this
new found prosperity would be to pro-
vide for the Scared veterans who have
no hope and no future in this world

BROTHER HARRELL informs US that
that hand kissing story was a joke, from
the sportive pen of Prof. Winston
W1lmingt0n Star.
We have but one opinion regarding
this matter, and that is this : any man
who will knowingly write such a mis-
cradle and uncalled-for lie should be
kicked out Of the State University.
We consider him a poor example of
truth for our young men to model
after.-FayeheviM Observer.
Let's 60 one step further and say
that a paper that will publish such a
lie. should be placed in the same boat
with the author. 1t is to be regretted
that any respectable paper will know
ingly give publicity to exaggerated ,ex-
travagant and outrages lies of this kind.

WE deeply sympathize with Brother
Wade H. Harris, of the Charlotte
Evening Ne70s, in the affection that
has befallen him. His only child,
Johnnie Springs, aged ID months, died
last Saturday morning. This is the
third child we believe whose death
Mr.. and Mrs. Harris have been called
upon to mourn. In this last visitation
our friend has the sympathy of his
brethren of the press as we'll as Others;
and if by reason of his sad heart and
clouded spirit his paper does not seem
as bright and newsy and cheerful as
usual, his readers will find ready ex-
cuse in the pail of sorrow that hangs
gloomily just now about the home Of
the genial and talented editor.

A FEW THINGS ABOUT NEWSPA'
PIERS IN NORTH CAROLINA.

1t has been asserted by some that
there are too many newspapers in
North Carolina. The GOLD LEAF is not
prepared to say that, exactly, but it
does say there are too many in some
sections, for the support given them.
The population of the State is too
sparse and the number OF reading
people too few to sustain more than
one paper as it ought to be in most
our towns.
We are prompted to say this by way
of introduction to the following article
from the Raleigh Nez0s- Observer.
Commenting on the suspension of the
Montgomery, Alabama, DisbatfA,attel
it had sunk good pile of money in
the vain endeavor to establish itsel
and break down the Ad0erhser of the
same city, it quotes the last named
paper as saying:
Many people think that the news
paper business is like any other thai
brains, energy and money must make
paper success. Never was a fallacy
more glazing, or more clearly and fire.
quently demonstrated. The established
newspaper is gradual growth, the
accumulation of years of experience
and good will. These foolish attempts
to establish a second business enter
prise where one has not proved to bs
bonanza, are not only severe upor
the individuals concerned, but they art
injurious to the communities in which
they take place. Nothing IS so indie
alive of fourishing city as flourish
ing paper. Nothing is SO powerful il
building up city as an energetic, de
voted, loyal journal. Yet paper can
not be flourishing, cannot be SO ener
getlc, devoted and loyal when it i
crippled by a diversion of necessar,
part of its income. The true polio,
of all thoughtful citizens, from a purel
selfish standpoint, should be to assis
in building up one strong journal
capable of doing credit to their city
and of doing its full duty in battling
for the prosperity and advancement G
all as a whole Instead of Away
opening their pocket-books to the sen
timental appeal for the support of
new enterprise, they should discrimi
nate between helpful and hurtful en-
terprises, and calculate upon the great
est good to the greatest number in
broad, far seeing way. No bushes
enterprise does as much free work fo
the whole of a community as news
paper. In the South few of them pa
anyhow why should community di
vide its power to make one fairly sue
Cessful and useful enterprise, to ii
own detriment? 1t is not proftabl
from purely material standpoint.

The Winston Sentinel says this Of
DIR. Grissom's resignation, and the
mistake he made in not resignine
sooner:
Under the circumstances, DR.. Grissom
is entitled to no credit for stepping
down and out in response to the evil
dent popular demand. 1t was a case
of "Hobson's choice" with him. \ X =
1t was unfortunate for Grissom that he
did not take advantage Of the oppor-
tunity to secure for himself a certain
degree of popular sympathy by resign
ing just after his "acquital" by the old
board. He would have been entitled
to,and would have received, under such
circumstances a certain amount Of
charitable sympathy from his enemies
as we'll as his friends.
But he ignored that opportunity,
and then made matters worse by de.
claring that he would never resign-he
would pay no heed to the popular will.
But he has been made to view the mat
ter in different light by the change
wrought in the complexion of the board.
And he has ssresigned" simply be-
cause he had to. We are sorry for him
but have no patience with such fool
hard iness.
AS private citizen Grissom we hope
ne may rest in peace. We have never
numbered ourselves with those who de-
light to kick man after he is down.

The Pittsboro Record is eleven
years old. Brother H. A. London
gets up a creditable paper, and one
that is always a welcome visitor to this
Office. Remarkable as it may appear,
it is stated that the Record is one OF
only three weekly papers in North
Carolina that have been published
continuously under the same manage
ment for that length of time. The
newspaper business in this State is not
veay remunerative and there are not
many editors who serve as long as a
dozen years unremittingly in journal.

We have received copy of DR..
Grissom's pamphlet in vind,cation OF
himself. In some respects it is a very
strong document. Had DR.. Grissom
resigned at the broper time, and left
off publishing his last card in the Nezvs-
Observer-that TRADE against the
Governor, the new Board of Directors
and the State CAronicle-then his
pamphlet, Invested of some of its bitter
invective, would have done him good.
DR.. Grissom missed his opportunity to
save himself and retain the sympathy
and respect of many of those who now
condemn his course since the trial,
whether they believed him guilty then
or not. DR.. Grissom has our sympathy.
