The above is a cut of the North Carolina School for the Deaf and Dumb at
Morganton, n @. Our Legislature last session acted wisely when they sa
rated the two classes, the deaf and theblnd, IN the Institution at Raleigh Tlp
never was any good reason why the two classes should have been put under
the same roof or management There is n bond of sympathy between the
two classes-the blind unable to see the deaf, and the deaf not able to hear the
blind. The methods of instruction employed are entirely DETERRENT with DIFF
|ferent corps Of teachers, different Textbooks, and even a different chapel for
worship. The In titution for the Deaf and Dumb and the Blind, att Raleigh
was established in 1848, and since that time a great many children have re
ceIved instruction and have been made happy, seEsQppOrtng intelligent Gu
zens. But while so many have been benefited by this school, it Is a sac bd
that less Than one fourth of these unfortunate children could be admitted
owing to the circumscrlbed condition of our buildings and appropriations UI
readers will doubtless be surprised to learn that there are over sly hundred
deaf children of school age in North Carolina, with less thar than ne n hqid m
these unfortunate children have a more liberal supports They are depnTS
of the benefit of the public schools In their respective communities or ac0um
of their physical condition. Is it not therefore just and right ttat We s9ua

The uneducated deaf mute is doubtless the unhapPest OF mankind not know
ing his responsibility to his Creator, or even his fellow man. In the schodaI
Morganton they will be on a farm of over two hundred acres, and the m1
this advantage, by being on a farm, can raise large part of their own supper
and thus reduce the expense of maintenance to the minimum Five sxHsq
the deaf children of our State are the sons and daughters of farmers ma
they re not educated in such schools, will grow up IN the most pta0egm
ance, and must be "hewers of wood and drawers of water" In TIL ne
school the boys will be taught such industrial trades ascarpentry, shoe m3kI5
printing, etc, thus demonstrating to them that labor is honorable. ana
they should be breadearners The girls too Will be taught industrial @7
such as cooking, dresmaking and drawing. -
The deaf mute makes a fine mechanic and artisan Of almost any deSHP|J

TIKI TARIFF AS 1T IS.

A Kansas man has put the whole
tariff question in a few lines Can any
one gainsay it2
"First-The people of the United
States produce many commodities more
advantageously andmore cheaply than
the people Of any other section of the
globe.
''Second-The people of other coun-
tries produce many commodities more
advantageously and more cheaply than
the people of the United States.
"Third-The aggregate production
of wealth would be greater and all
laborers would be better remunerated if
restrictions upon the natural flow of
commerce were removed, thereby en-
abllng the people of each nation to
exchange what they can produce more
advantageously for the articles which
thepeople of other nations can produce
advantageously."

Weaver and showed his true record;
he showed that there had not lIved a

nounced that in two or three States
the Cleveland electoral ticket had been

Butler and Glenn discuss the great
issues in this campaign. l had been
seeing from the partisan papers that
Glenn had been getting the better of
the discussion, and felt a little uneasy,
as I am an enthusiastic Peoples party
man. Glenn led in the discussion. He
is a man of fine address, and a fluent
and impressive talker. When he
finished Twas still afraid that Butler
was not amatchfor him. Butler arose
to reply. He looked a little pale and
worn and had a serious and determined
expression CT afterwards learned that
he had just received a telegram from
Clinton stating that his newspaper
office, The Caucasian, and everything
he owned vas that morning DESTROYED
by fire, and that he had no insurance
The large crowd got very quiet. But
Ter began In a slow, impressive man
ner. In five minutes he warmed up to
the combat and had captured his audi
ence. In ten minutes he had convinced
the whole audience, Democrats as well
as Peoples partymen, that he was more
than a match for his competitor. Fol
an hour and a half he grew more ear
nest and eloquent with each sentence
He took hold of his audience and car
ried them with him, with his hum

nor stopping for pent-up applause. The
effect upon the audience was wonder

From the Hayseeder.l
The following is a copy of a type
written letter sent out to the chairmen
of the several county Democratic com
mittees and intended for their conf
Dental use. There was by chance
more than one of the chairmen who
thought this legal opinion should be
given all voters alike and hence it has
come to light:
RALEIGH, N. c., Sept. %, 1892.
SIR:-I call your attention to the ac-
companying letter of Attorney General
Davidson:
The registrars must open their books
and give proper notice of so doing on
the goth day Of September, and close
them at - o'clock noon on Saturday,
296h day of October.
According to a recent decision of the
Supreme Court, it is the duty of the
registrar to read to each elector before
he registers the enquiries at head of
each column of the registration book,
and he may record the voters answer
in the words in which he gives it or he
may make the voter correct his an
sWer, or give his statement more
specifically.
The act is declared mandatory in the
opinion referred to Harris VS.. Scar
boro 10 N. @. Reports and therefore
the registration is unlawful if the cleo
tor fails to state Ibis age, occupation.
place of birth and place of residence of
the elector, as well as the township or
county from whence the elector has
removed, in the event of a removal,
and the full christian and sur name
by which the voter is known"
In answer to the three questions, viz;
Place of residence, place of birth,
and place from which voter has re-
moved. IN case OF removal, the court
holds that it is not sufficient to enter
simply the name of the State, but the
name of the county at least must be
entered. Where the registrar failed
two years ago to enter the =" age, occu
patton, place of birth and place of resi-
dence of an elector as we'll as the town
ship or county whence the electorIhas
removed, and the full name by which
the voter is known" The elector still
has the privilege of filling any blank or
correcting any mistake.
/ deem it unnecessary to call your
attention to the Importance of seeing
that every Democrat is properly regis
tered, and all registered two years ago
who were not properly registered to
have the necessary corrections j n such
registrations made.
You will please notify each registrar
of your county promptly not only Of
the day of opening and hour of closing
the registration books, but take early
occasion to see eachone personally and
give him full instructions as to his
duty.
No more important duty devolves
upon you in this campaign. This is a
confidential communication and only
intended to be special instructions for
your guidance.
