Congress has adjourned, after AZ nn-
usually brief session. Out of 0. 200
bills in the lower House, and 3,2J0 in
the Upper House {an average of u
bills to each member in the lower and
SO in the upper, but $50 were passed
and signed by the President. Among
these, were the appropriation bills,
the appointment of the Venezuelan
boundary commission, the suppression
of prize fighting in the territories, re-
moval of the disability of Confederate
officers for the holding of appointments
Tin the army and navy, and the require
ment of one years residence in a terri
tory before securing a divorce. The
House passed bill revising the tariff
and the Senate put a free-silver clause
to it, and said give us this or give us
nothing. Both Houses rolled up big
river and harbor bill, appropriating
$4,000, 900 in the next six years, and
when the President vetoed it, both
Houses united to override the veto.
No relief, therefore, has come to the
Treasury. The Senate tried to put a
stop to the issue of bonds to keep up
the gold reserve, and the House block
ed that plan. Though the Republicans
had big majority in the House 150)
and nominal one in the Senate, the
two houses were about as much at outs
with each other as both were with the
President.

The silver Democrats cannot carry
more than half of the Southern States

silver Republicans. The moment the
Chicago convention declares for silver,

20 per cent. of their strength, which is
the sound money element, who will
vote the Republican ticket or remain
at home on election day.
With loss of 20 per cent. the States
of Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Vir-
ginia and West Virginia will give
their electors to the Republicans. The
same loss in Texas, Alabama, Georgia
and North CarOlina will give those
States to the Populists.

had been much talked of as the Dem

who had received the endorsement of
many counties. has written the fol-
lowing letter:
DURHAM, n. c., June -, 1896.
Hon. JAMES H.POU, Chairman Dem
ocratic State Executive Committee:
Dear Sir: | regret that just on the
eve of the convention, in obedience
to the wish of my wife and in defer
ence to the desire of my business as
sociates, who are averse to my enter
ing politics, I am compelled to de-
cline to allow my name to go before
the Democratic State convention for
the nomination for Governor.
When the outlook for success was
not so bright l could not bring my
self to decline to lead what many re-
garded as a forlorn hope; now that
conditions have changed, and the
party seems almost certain of sue
cess, l feel that l can ask my politi-
cal friends to permit me to serve in
the ranks and not as leader.
In thanking my friends through
out the State for the loyal and IN
solicited support which | shall ever
gratefully remember, and profoundly
approaching the confidence reposed
in me l desire to add that IN the
coming contest no man in the State
will endeavor to do moro for ii1e
election Of the Democratic State and
National tickets, in proportion to his
opportunities, than myself.
| With great respect,
Yours very truly,

The funeral services were held at In

from conviction of the fact that all
was we'll, the poignant realization of
the loss of a bright life among friends,

DISCUSSING PUBLIC EDUCATION.

Suggestions Made at The Teachers Assem-
bIv Concerning The Public School
system.
AsHEvILLE, June 17.-At tO-day's
session of the Teachers Assembly, the
programme began with discussion of
school supervision" led by Mr.. Geo.
II. Butler, county examiner of Samp-
son. Mr.. Butler sketched the present
plan of public school supervision,
showing that the direction of the
schools were in the hands of men
chosen for their ability in managing
gested that the Assembly elect one
representative for each congressional
district, they to meet in Raleigh next
winter, and after consulting with the
State superintendent of Education, to
lay before the Legislature scheme of
supervision suited to the needs of the
State.
Dr.C. ID. McIver, president of the
State Normal, following Mr.. Butler,
declared that efficient county super
intendency would be the ideal plan
but since this, with the present school
fund, is impossible, he advocated earn
estly dividing the State into thirty
districts or divisions, choosing super.
visors commensurate with the work
1t would attact bright young men, VIII,
now choose other professions, to be
Scome teachers, and thus raise the ton
Moi the profession in the State. II
said the appointing of professions
teachers as supervisors of the district
would be vastly better than appoint
ing of inefficient men as county su
perintendents. Securing of taxatio
in the counties was the ultimate OF
iect, because then it will be pOssibl
for every county to pay a competen
teacher to be county superintendent.
