OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

NENIA, \. c., Aug. 4, 1894.
Mr. Editor:-The CAUCASIAN of
July 18th has an article in it taken
from the Progressive Farmer in
which an attempt is made to show
that the schools do not get the full
benefit of the money provided for
them bS public taxation. This ar
ticle cohtans some errors which |
wish to correct by the report of the
Superinpnt,e nt of Public lnstruc
The artcl & says "that the average
pay for tvac hers in 1892 was, white
923.33, an4A Acolored $2O.14 per
month" a burning to page 81 of
the reporx. which we are referred
we find tia tthe above is incorrect
and the fo0Sk Wing are the real facts:
Salaries for white males 1926 20, fe-
males P22.,2. tColored males $23.33,
females 20l4]
The writer ter making his cal
culations Oh mistaken basis as the
average saaryt for teachers says.
"Here we find bat 24.7 per cent of
the school fund actually received by
the State did Nc reach the schools. %
This is an erroItons statement and
produces false Impression on those
who do not have the facts before
them. Let Us eyIamine the facts in
the case: x
On page 80 Of The report of Su,
perintendent finger for 1892 we see
that the actual xIenditures of pub
lie school moniey for that year was
S760.991 OF; Ahat , 1888 S22.SO, OF
76.7 per cent went \, the teachers
that 1914. 776- y ot17.7 was used
for buildings, (sltes, schools, fuel
furniture, repairs &c-pp Ii and 30
and that $42 39t 50 or SO per cent
betrayed the EXPENSES of county in
stitutes, salaries Pf county superin
tendents, boards Of education On
GLIDING fuel posthge Nc.,) and ever
the treasurers commissions.
On eXaminatiOnIOf above facts W,
see that 94.4 per c. nt. Of the entire
public school fund actually reaches
the schools, or at least is controlled
by the committeeman, being uset
to pay teachers build houses, max
repairs &C., as seems best in thei
Judgment. We see also that SO pc
cent. of the money IS all that is uset
for disbursing the fluid, paying. tn
salaries of all officers, supporting in
stltutes &c. We also notice tina
the average salary of teachers wa
less in '92 than in SO, p. 81 of re
port. All the above facts can b
found in Supt. Fingers report TO
'92. James @. Carr.

The first load of new tobacco of
the crop of 1894, sold in Henderson.
was put upon the floor Of the popu-
lar Warehouse of
BUTLER, JENKINS q Co.,
on July 18th. 1t was grown by John
r Reavis, and brought good price.
In fact. the prices paid by this firm
are always the best. And, because
their CHARGES for selling are much
lower than those of other Ware
houses, it PAYS to sell with them
every time. Twelve months ago this
firm succeeded the Alliance Ware
house Company and adopted THEN
low charges. The motto of Butler.

Farmers, look to your interests.

In all diseases Of the nasal or mucous
membrane the remedy used must be
non irritating. Nothing satisfactory
can be accomplished by the use of dou-
ches. snuffs, powders or astringents.
because they are irritating, do not
thoroughly reach the affected surfaces
and should be abandoned as worse
than useless. A multitude of persons
