SEMINARY CONTROL.

T1e Northern assembly at Pittsburg has decided to bring the church semlna- ries under more direct control of the general assembly. This matter elicited warm discussion and 1t is related to the Briggs case. The controversy grew out of the Union Theological Seminary, in which Dr. Briggs is a professor. The general assembly will either get control of the Union Seminary, or it will swing off from this general assembly. The Briggs case has been a disturbing ele- ment for several years. Some six or sev-. en years ago Dr. Briggs confessed that he did not believe in the inerrancy of the Bible as to history and science, but that he did believe it infallible as to faith and doctrine. He taught this doc urine to his students. At the Detroit assembly five years ago a case was brought against the Union Seminary for employing such man, and his appoint ment as professor was vetoed. His local presbytery took up the matter and de- cided for him. The prosecuting com mittee then appealed to the Portland as- sembly, which overruled the presbytery and suspended pr. Briggs from the ex-
  rian pulpit The Union Seminary, not believing the assembly had any equita- ble right to silence the teaching of Dr. Briggs, has continued his employment. This last move was to bring Union Sem- mary and all the seminaries under strict CT and more direct control of the gen. eral assembly. The decision at Pitts burg was in this line. It will take time, however, and it remains to be seen whether the seminaries will agree to this and what legal measures will be necessary to accomplish it. Union Sem mary is very wealthy and represents in it's control some of the most liberal sup porters of the church. It is thoroughly Presbyterian in character and control, but it is not directly under the charge of the courts of the church. At Pitts burg the lines were not drawn strictly on the Briggs case. but the discussion represented various shades of opinion as to the best method of managing these seminaries.

THE MEMPHIS CONVENTION.

It is within the lines of truth to-say that the eyes of the world are upon Mem phis.
 Not only in this country. but through out civilization. wherever there is mart or exchange. the reports of the ''sound money convention will be read eagerly and carefully.
 It is not necessary to make extended comment upon the convention. The pub lie is familiar with the purpose for which it assembled, and the wires tell how that purpose is being carried out.
 There is an idea in this connection, however. to which the Age-Herald will invite attention: The standard of sound money has been first raised in a Southern city by Southern hands, and as it flutters in the breeze Christendom will know that the South is conservative, yet progress i've Capital will look kindly upon the section which did not walt for the busle blast before it rallied to the defense of principle Thus benefits other than those contemplated by the promoters of the convention will in season accrue to the South.

Cotton enters into almost everything a man uses He rises in the morning off a cotton mattress from between cotton sheets and puts on cotton clothes; he wipes his face on a cotton towel, break lasts on cotton table cloth, wipes his lips with cotton napkin and waves his wife goodbye with a cotton handker- chief; and at his office he writes on paper made from cotton and ties up his bun dles in cotton twine. When China is thrown open to commerce and her 400.- 900 GOO people begin to use cotton goods there will be tremendous demand for cotton. And the cotton belt has a virtual monopoly. for cotton can be grown only in a certain kind of soil and under cer- tain climatic conditions.

Rev. John Barbour, pastor of South Highlands Presbyterian church. is much interested in the action of the Northern assembly in the seminary control mat ter. He was a member of the judiciary committee that tried the Briggs case in the general assembly at Portland in 1892 The moderator, William c. Young, recognized the ability of MT. Barbour, and appointed him over much older men.

The IS to l advocates are making des- rerate efforts to pick flaw in Carlsle's speech. They even attempt to deny his assertion that standard silver dollars are legal tender. All the lawyers agree that contract can be made payable in silver dollars, and that the creditor must accept such payment under the law. If either can thus be used, both are legal tenders
Birmingham age-herald., 1895-05-24

The Supreme Court has twice held that a contract is enforcible according to the terms of the contract. If the contract calls for gold it must be paid in gold. If it calls for the payment of so many dol lars it can be paid in any form of legal tender money. Legal tender is gold of any denomination, standard silver dol lars, fractional silver coin to the amount of $5,United States legal tender notes, and treasury notes of 1890, which were issued for purchases of silver under the Sherman act. Gold certificates, silver cer- tificates and National bank notes are not legal tender. Under the Supreme Court decisions no form of coin or cur rency is available for the payment of contract which specifically calls for an other form of money.

The total production of iron ore in this country in 1894 was 11.S79679 long tons of 2240 pounds. This is an increase of 215 per cent over 1893. The red hematite ore takes the lead, being 70 per cent of the total product, and then follows brown hematite, magnetic and carbonate in the order named. Twenty-four States pro- duced iron ore in 1894, ranging in amount from 4,419,074 tons in Michigan to 1915 tons in Maryland. Minnesota ranks sec ond and Alabama third. Virginia has risen from fifth place to fourth place. and Pennsylvania has fallen from fourth to fifth The average price of the iron ore is $1.14 ton, making the total value of the product SIS, 3,577, 325. The price of the Alabama ore is considerably below the average. and this is great advan- tage that Alabama has in making iron. Texas foots the list, for the value of her total output of ore was only $11 521.

THE PRIDE OF THE TOWN.

NO cases OF truancy or corporal pun
ishment during the past month at the
High School. Those persons who
turn up their noses or pooh, pooh, at
the school and rant and rave at the
Board of Education, charging parti-
sanship and mismanagement, should
take walk across the dry bridge and
up to the red building on the hill and
see for themselves the change which
has taken place. Coxeyism has been
eradicated. Instead of rowdyism
there is gentleuess; instead of idleness
there is diligent study; instead of tru-
ancy, prompt attendance; instead of
carelessness and indifference, close at
tention to study and an earnest desire
to advance. The transformation is
complete. Ask one of those bright
eyed boys or rosy-cheeked girls about
the High School and at once the flush
OF conscious pride manitests itself and
the quick response is that the school
is all right. Notice them as they pass
along the streets in quiet and or
derby manner, loaded with books and
though blind one should see that they
came from a school where peace,
quietude, and happiness reign. No
more are they afflicted with "Cata-
chisms of Punishments" run as
serial in daily paper; no more are
they looked upon and treated as
thieves, robbers, and liars. No more
are the pupils dragged before the
grand jury and made to appear as
criminals. No more is profanity and
vulgarity heard upon the grounds or
in the halls. No more are passersby
jibed and jeered at and horses fright
ened. No more do the residents of
that section of the city wish the High
School anywhere else than there.
Yet there are those who demand
change. What for? Why? No
reason is assigned. A leer of the eve,
toss of the head, knowing wink,
and the ejaculation, mo more poll
tics in the schools" That is all; but
when called upon to state in what
particular politics have been brought
into the schools, no reply is given ex-
cept that an incompetent Democratic
niger, put into the schools because
he is Democrat, has been fired.
Dear friend, before casting your
vote next Tuesday be very sure that
the man for whom you vote will not
wreck that which is and should re-
main the pride of the town.

HON. GEORGE W. ATKINSON.
His Nomination for First Place Upon
the Ticket Urged.

To the Editor OF the Herald.
You will kindly allow me space in
the columns of the Herald, as ! fee
il duty as we'll as pleasure, tc
make an earnest suggestion to my
fellow-citizens of Berkeley County
and the State of West Virginia al
large. It is said that we should al
ways Take time by the fore lock,
and therefore hope no one will deem
me premature, when ! most earnest
ly recommend our distinguished and
we'll known fellow-citizen, Hon. G.
w. Atkinson. as the most suitable
candidate for Governor Of our State
in the next gubernatorial contest.
He has been prominently before the
people for many years, and as we
know him to be man of great exec.
utive ability, high mental attain,
ment, and endowed with all the so.
cial, moral, and religious qualities
that should adorn the character of a
Christian gentleman, we take great
pleasure in urging his nomination
at our next Republican convention.
Keep this idea fresh in the minds Of
our voters, Mr.. Editor. and victory
may again triumphantly perch upon
our banner as in 1894. ALPHA.

Nothing catches the British eve like
gold. John Bull can give the Span.

emily proper for his good friend,
Grover Cleveland, to say: Come over,
John, and take what you want. ]
well understand that you would not
care a fig for it if those foolish subjects
OF mine had not gone and found gold
there; but you take as much as vot,
think right and l shall be content
You know we goldbugs must moi

course OF the administration in like

such will be the course in the

about the boundary between Alaska

POLITICS IN THE SCHOOLS.

There is a class OF persons in this
city who actually believe that the
Board of Education is a Radical Re-
publican machine. trampling down
and grinding in pieces those who diff
fer politically from them. They
read no other newspaper than the
Statesman and picture in their minds
the manner iii which the editor Of the
Herald drives the Board around like
so many donkeys. Poor creatufesl
They are to be pitied because they
know no better. They accept the
silly charges of the Statesman as fact
and really believe that which he Grams
down their outlets is the truth, when
he, himself, knows there is not word
of truth in his vaporings.
Politics in the schools Let us see.
Two years ago such was the disgust
with the management of school af-
fairs that not a Democrat could be
found in the city who would think of
standing as candidate for commits
sioner. The Herald insisted that a
ticket should be put up, but no one
responded Self-respecting Demo
Gratis, men OF worth and intelligence
in the community, said eve have
tried to get the Democratic Board to
make change in the management of
the schools but they would not, and
now we propose to see if relief cannot
be obtained from Republicans. /"
The next year Prof Carnan was
made superintendent and S. Johns
Williamson teacher of the first room
of the High School. Both are Repub-
licans. They displaced one Demo
GRAFT and one Coxeyite. 1t is fact
that subsequent events have proven
that had Mr.. Rinker had the support
which was his due, he would have
had much less trouble, but with the
superintendent against him success
was impossible. That year nothing
was done with the colored school ex-
cept to substitute male for a female
teacher.
But this year politics ugly, hid
eous, hateful politics-was dragged in
and the Democratic niger teacher
who had been brought nere to train
the colored youth of the town in the
paths of Democracy was fired. That
is why the editor of the Statesman
weeps and walls and crashes his
teeth, that is why he sits in his pri-
vate room in the post office ransack-
ing his dilapidated Postal Guide for
explosives with which to forge invec-
tive to sling at the Herald.
OF the other changes-rather APP
pointments to fill vacancies-if any,
one knows Prof Blakemore's politics
he is better posted than we. Mrs. Hoke
is Democrat or of Democratic antece-
dents. The corps of teachers as it
now stands is about equally divided
politically, but there is not an active
politician of either party, with the
possible exception of one-a Demo
crat.
From the above anyone can see that
the schools have not been injured by
the present Board and are not likely
to be. The three gentlemen an
nounced in the Herald as candidates
are men of reason and sense and will
not be as likely to introduce politics
into the schools as the editor Ct the
Statesman.

Sam Josephs, of Philadelphia, au-
thor of "Grover, Grover, Four More
Years of Grover" is dead. Samuel
was a public benefactor in that he en-
abled the people to realize by contrast
the difference between real prosperity
and the bogus variety advocated by
Democrats. But we have no use for
the perpetuation of Samuel's race.
Since he has passed into innocuous
desuetude, let him rest in peace.
