MR.. SHERMAN'S BOOK.

Senator Sherman wisely deferred the
publication of his book until all dreams
of gaining the presidency passed out of
his head. But he has not waited long
enough to escape the retaliation to which
his inconsistent life exposes him. No
able man in public life has been so in
consstentsa so partisan as the senior
Ohio Senator, and none has been so cold
and selfish. In early life he was on both
sides of the proposition to impeach An
drew johnson. finally voting with the
most radical element in his party. He
can be quoted in favor of gold, gold and
silver, silver and rag money. With all
his Inconsistencies and 1ops, he has
maintained his position because he is
really very able man and the moneyed
interests have always known he could be
depended upon to stand by them in
emergencies.
What if Garfield did make a secret
trade to secure the nomination in 1880,
while publicly leading the Sherman
forces2 Is any good accomplished now
by proving his treachery9 Able and
brilliant as he was, nobody doubts that
Garfield was capable of doing what
Sherman says he did. If Mr.. Sherman
gives history Of all the treachery a d
falsehood that has characterized the Re
publican party since Lincoln died, it
would be 80 nauseating nobody would
read it.

MIR. WRIGHT is WRONG.

Mr.. Wright, the chairman of the Sup
plies Committee of the Philadelphia
Board of Education, has ruled that the
autobiography of Benjamin Franklin is
unfit to be placed in the hands of the
pupils of the public schools. Comment
ing on this, "The Philadelphia Record :"
says:
"The Board of Education should turn
itself into board of inquiry, and ens
dpavor to ascertain the trouble that
seems to bother Mr.. Wright's intellectu-
ais. If he be in bis right mind, he ought
to resign; if be be not, then some more
appropriate place should be found for
him"
The Board OF Education is very severe
On Mr.. Wright, but none too severe.
Benjamin Franklin is easily the
greatest man Pennsylvania has pro
duced, and the story OF his hum
bic beginning, of his industry and econ
omy, of his simplicity in greatness, and
his exalted patriotism will serve as an
inspiration to the youth, not only of the
city in which he lived and wrought, but
in every city in the world where there is
appreciation of true greatness.

The exhibits at the Fair were all III
place Yesterday and they were large ard
varied. From a spectacular stand
point it is unfortunate that the exhibits
were not confined to smaller compass
instead of being placed over the entire
space covered by the display at the Elk
position. This, however, does not affect
the excellence and fullness of the display
in the minds of these who go to the
Fair to see the exhibits, only lessening
the artistic effect in the eyes of the
carnal observer,
The crowd yesterday, while not SO
large as last year, was a representative
North Carolina gathering, and was the
common centre for the greetings of
friends. Lawyers and preachers, poll
ticians and farmers, doctors and me-
chanics, school boys and school girls,
representative of Tar-heel life, were
present, all in the best Of spirits, not
withstanding the slump in the price OF
cotton.
1t takes something more than falling
prices to dry up the fountains OF
happiness that spring perennial in the
hearts of the people of this good COM
monwealth. The State Fair is the COM
mon ground upon which all our people,
regardless of calling, creed or politics,
meet every Fall after harvest, and if
there wasn't an exhibit outside patch
work Quilt and pitcher of red lemonade,
the State Fair would be great institution
as the means of uniting men and women
of divergent views upon the develop
ment Of resources and the growth of a
kindly feeling. In one group yesterday
were three of the most prominent poll
ticians in the stafe-a Populist, Re-
publican and a Democrat. They had
fused" upon lunch of North Caro-
linas peculiar and favorite dish, barbe-
cue, and were laughing and telling
Jokes, all unmindful of political
differences. This exhibition, unpremed-
tied, CT the fact that politics has not
touched the Fair, was a happy omen.
There is one big thing in North Carolina
that is common rallying point for all,
and even it did not do anything else
than afford this centre for coming to-
gether, the State Fair would be worthy
of the co operation and help of every
good citizen.
The greatness of the attractions of the
Atlanta Exposition and the low railroad
rates naturally tend to lessen tie at
tendance at the Fair this year. Only
superior capacity. unselfish enthusiasm,
and glowing State pride could have made
Fair this year at all; but these have
not been wanting, and the Fair is in
every way, except the fake shows, highly
creditable.

The Thompson school and Business
College Again ut the Fair.

College Again nj the Fair.
The State Fair is always better, bigger
and brighter than 1t would otherwise be
because of the annual presence of the
solendid exhibit made by the Thompson
School and Business College Of Siler
Clty.
This exhibit, arranged under the
supervision of the talented and
enterprising owner and superinten-
dent. Prof J. A. W. Thompson, is
practical illustration of the pro
ficieLcy attained by the students of this
school, both in literary and indus
trial studies. The exhibit comprises
specimens of penmanship, drawing, etc
the wol k of the studen and members of
the faculty; all daintily and neatly
arranged in the west wing of Floral Hall.
Prof Thompson himself is at the fair,
shaking hands with his old students and
patrons and gaining new ones. The
Thompson School is one of the
most deservedly popular prepare
tory schools in the State, situated
In that pleasant and healthful
little town Siler City, on the Cape Fear
and Yadkiu Valley Railroad, nearly
midway between Greensboro and San
ford 1t has around it the intel
lectual and prosperous counties of
Chatham, Alamance, Guilford, Ran
dolph and Moore, and with such sections
to draw from it is not wonder that The
Thompson School has been successful.
But the patronage of the school is not
confined to these tributary counties, its
proficiency and popularity has not only
crossed county borders, but State
borders, and each new open
ing brings new students from far and
near. The colors are gray and
blue, and at the Thompson school there
is peaceful blending of these old colors.
The location Of the school is attractive
and easy of access, the faculty learned
and progressive, the management ex-
cellent and business-like.
At last years fair the Thompson school
was AWARDED the premium for the best
exhibit made by any male school in the
State, besides seven diplomas and gold
medal for special exhibits in school work.
Prof. G. G. Wagner, of Ohio, is the
special instructor in the business depart
ment. Prof. Wagner has diplomas from
three Northern business colleges and is
thoroughly equipped for this responsible
and important position. He Is a splen-
did teacher and is pronounced by good
judges the finest penman in the State
Prof. r. P johnson, graduate OF Wake
Forest College, with an experience of
seventeen years in high school work, is
teacher of the languages.
In the Thompson School students are
admitted at any time and the very rea-
sonable rates charged by Prof Thomp-
son is one OF the most popular features
of the school. Students are prepared here
for the University and other colleges,
and upon certificate of the superinten-
dent they are admitted into the colleges
without farther examination. The school
is continuously growing and the pros
poets for the spring session are more
flattering than at any time il recent
years.
