THE North Carolina women are
away behind the times! When the
bill roviding for the admission of
women as members of the School
Board was defeated in the Legi ,lature,
the women who were presen. applauded,
which is evidence of very remarkable
conservatism on The part of our
Southern Sisters. The admission of
women to School Boards is a sen-
sible and just movement and is en-
dorsed by an enlightened public senti-
ment. The experience of the states
and cities that have tried it is proof
of its wisdom. Women are peculiarly
adal ted to serve the state in this
capacity. Their practical sense, in
telligeDce and culture, their earnest
ness and honesty of purpose that are
too often lacking in Boards that are
composed entirely of men, and where
the political feature pred Jminates, fit
them peculiarly well for this service.
There is no better feld for womah's
work than on School Boards and they
will be great factor iE solving the ed
ucational problem. The matter has no
connection whatever with the suffrage
movement, and appeals to the good
sense of all honest citizens.

The question of Sunday openjng of

The question of Sunday opening of
saloons in New York is being very
vigorously agitated and viewing it
from the opposition side we cannot see
how it can make much progress. That
open ruashops should be legalized on
any day is bad enough, but when it
comes to legalizing Sunday selling We
do not wonder that the people are
aroused. Why should the rumseller
be allowed to keep open when the
grocer must close? If there is to be
any discrimination why make it in
favor of business that brings such
blight and ruin? To legalize for six
days a business that fills our aims
houses and jails, demoralizes and de-
grades thousands of lives and is the
greatest bill of expense the community
has, is a very questionable policy in
the minds of all thoughtful people, and
to open the saloons on Sunday would
indeed be a step backward. In our
own state there is a great movement
on foot to close the saloon seven days
in the week, I'd popular sentiment is
sweeping hard againt this great evil.
The eyes of the world are on New
York's reform administration, and we
are watching to see her grapple this
giant evil with the strong arm Of the
law.

COUNTY sUPERINTENDENrs,

There is no more important appointive
Office in this state than that of County
Superintendent of Public Schools.
Next May it will be the duty and priv
ilege of Governor Marvil TO name a
man from the three respective counties
for this responsible position, and it is
a matter of the greatest Importance
that no mistake be made in the choice
of a candidate. The progress of civil
ization, the advancement of intslli-
gence, morality and patriotism in our
civil life, and the gentility and happi-
ness of cur domestic life are largely
dependent upon our Public Schools, and
the efficiency of our schools is advanced
or retarded relatively, by the efficiency
or inefficiency of the Superintendent.
The manner of men who shall occupy
this Office is therefore of vital import
ance.
For the first time since we have had
County Superintendents, the office
this year is the gift of Republican
Administration and naturally the can
didates must be Republicans, and no
others need apply. But of this we are
very sure-the appointments will not
be made solely upon political qualfica-
tions, as has been the case in the past,
and, with the notable exception of the
present Superintendent of Kent County,
the latter day incumbents have been
chiefly noted for their special unfitness
in every qualification other than politi-
cal.
We want men of learning and cul-
ture and good moral character i'm the
Office of Superintendent; men who are
educated educators, with broad and
comprehensive views of the relation of
the School to the State; men of large
experience in Public School work.
In New Castle County we know of
no more worthy man than Prof. Her
man Roe, of Townsend. He is the
leading candidate, ,and is pre-sminently
fitted for the Office. He IS scholar
and a christian gentleman, and though
in no sense politician, he is life
long and loyal Republican.
He has wide experience in teaching
and his natural endowments and intel
lectual attachments equip him well for
the Office.
He has the endorsement OF a large
number of the most influential men,
not only in this community, but
throughout the county, and it will be
a great step onward for our Public
Schools when we have such men as he
as Superintendent in all the counties.
We hope Governor Marvil will appoint
him our next Superintendent.

1T Is ENOUGH.

What a strange spectacle the Della
ware Legislature presents to the Ma
ton! Stubbornness in legislative ca
pacity is a crime that the Ameri-
can people will not look upon with
any degree of allowance, and our
State Legislature can have no claim
upon the respect and confidence of
the people when it persists in keeping
up such an absurd and wholly un-
warranted Lewiston. We have had
enough of such tactics in the National
Congress, and we pray to be delivered
from any more of it within our own
borders.
In accordance with the practices
governing Republican caucuses in this
and in other States. Mr.. Higgins has
been declared the choice of the party
for United States Senator, by men
comprising a majority, and they owe
it to the party that has given them
legislative honors and powers, to
maintain that position; any other
course would be to invite disaster.
The attitude of the minority is
foolish. and is bringing the censure
and ridicule of the whole nation not
only upon this one little handful of
man and their leaders, but also upon
their constituents.
We have right to expect better
things of the men whom the State has
entrusted with her most sacred honor.
The nation at large is viewing the sit
uation and is ready with its
verdict. It has not been slow to
recognize the wisdom of the party in
choosing Mr.. Higgins, and throughout
the whole country there have been
testimonials to his ability; and many
Democrat journals of high standing
have paid him the tribute he so richly
deserves; and why should his own
State longer withhold that which the
whole nation claims as it's right! Why
should this handful of obstructionists
balk the peoples rightful claim? Mr..
Higgins has worthily maintai ned the
reputation which our State has ever
born in the United States Senate, and
it is DO discredit to other leaders to say
that he is pre- eminent to-day, and il
our Legislature would have our State
again so worthily represented, it will
not longer delay in naming Senator
Higgins as his own successor. and put
an end to the peurile tactics that for
the past three weeks have made our
State laughing stock before the
nation.

untiring zeal and his loyalty to what
he knows is right. But he is not in

kind are pricked up to hear what the
reverend reformer has to say.
The English Language is full OF

enough to express the dreadful thing
that DIR. Parkhurst wants to disclaim,
and he is compelled to coin word to
fit it. He calls it "Andromania," and
says it means ,C0naen dping men! He
begins his series of articles on the sub
ject in this months Ladies Home
Journal and already our curiosity is
piqued to know what he is going to
make of it. We wonder if the solemn
visaged theologue means to be as
facetious as his theme would suggest,
for everybody knows that in reality
the woman are not aping the men at
all.
