Goldsboro Schools And The County Board
OF Education.
GoLDsBoRo, June 22nd, 1895.
"Who shouts his message to the will
derness
Lightens his soul and feels one burden
less" GOETHE.
The talk and sensation Of this
city at the present is the action taken
by the county board of education in
filing the vacancies on the Colds
boro graded and high school board
three by expiration of term and one
to fill vacancy caused by the resigna-
ton of Maj. H. L. Grant, who had
four years more, but resigned because
the policy seemed to be to make the
educational interest an annex to
Democratic success in Wayne coun-
ty.
Mai. Grant has been on the board
for over fifteen years and with the
late J. A. Bonitz was the pioneer in
establishing graded schools in North
Carolina, and has always been q
staunch TREND of education.
About two years ago Ioitica
influence began to have it's say and
from then until the present thei1
action has been from political con
siderations ratherl than the good Of
schools.
Experience and capacity wer'

This idea permeated the whole sys

POPULlSTS WERE IN CONTROL.

ZION DECLARING Want of Confidence I'm the
Old Parties.
New York World
MEMPHIS, Tenn, June 14.-It
leaked out today that the Populists
on the committee on resolutions of
the silver convention were actually
in a majority, and had not Bryan
pleaded against such a move they
would have insisted on a declara ton
OF union of all who favor financial re-
form.
When the resolutions were re-
ported by the subcommittee, Sena-
tor Marion Butler, of North Carolina,
moved to recommit, stating that he
favored declaration that financial
reform could not be gotten through
either the Democratic or Republican
parties. The motion was carried by
vote of 16 to II. Senator Jones,
OF Arkansas, leaped to his feet and
stated that he would draw out then
and there if the plank was insisted
on. Other Democrats also made
speeches of like nature. Finally
Bryan got the floor and pleaded with
these fayoring the free silver party
idea to withdraw their objections.
Bryan's begging appeal won over the
POpulists, and the motion to recon-
nit was reconsidered.
But those favoring the new party
plan got the passage of the resolution
providing for the appointment of a
general committee, one from each
State, to confer with other bimetallic
leagues as to the best method of
promoting the cause of silver and
financial reform as the price of their
change. The Populists also compelled
the Democrats to strike out the
words redemption" and primary
as applied to money, thew holding
that there should be no such thing as
redemption money.

Quite an exciting little episode occurred
after the last race. The trouble all arose
from Ally Lakeland steering Bob Aiken Off
a winner. Aiken says that Alfy came
to him before the race was run and told him
that his horse, Hoey, could not possibly
win.
When Hoey romped home winner by
eight lengths Aiken was mad as March
hare and rushing down to the judges
stand announced his intention OF bidding
Lakeland's horse up couple or thousand
do ollars. Lakeland has a pretty fiery
temper, and ripping out knife said he
would cut Bob wide open" if he carried
out his intention. Friends stepped in at
this iuncture and smoothed matters over.
Lakeland was doubly sore. as lie did not
have Mike Dwyer to protect him.
Jack White was way in the hole up to
the last race, but managed to pull out on
Hoey.
