The teachers work in the school room
FOR the present year is nearly through.
and reports and abstracts from the va.
rlouss schools of each district are coming
IN, but Judging from the number of ap-
pllcations made for questions on exami-
nation of Fifth and Eighth Grades, / am
constrained to believe there is neglect
upon the part of some teachers on this
important point of duty. 1t does seem
to me that every teacher owes it to his
pupils and patrons, to show forth, at the
close of his school, some of the good re-
suits of his work. Every teacher before
resuming work in the school room next
year Will be supplied with Manual and
Regulations for the government and
grading of the schools, which must be
faithfully carried out by each teacher in
charge of public school work No pro-
motions hereafter will be recognized un-
less they are regularly made, as pre-
scriDed IN our Manual, and teachers will
De held responsible for any irregularities
on their part i'll making such promotions.
In districts where students have been
admitted to the Sixth and Seventh
Grades without having passed their ex-
aminations as prescribed by law, it will
be well for such to request the district
directors to call for an examination and
| will appoint some one to hold the same
before the next school term of school
opens.
| am compelled on account of some de.
linquent teachers failing to make their
final reports and abstracts at the close
OF their schools to remind all such that
their license to teach will not be con
tlnued hereafter until all reports are ac-
curately made out and sent in. The Su-
perlntendents report is made up from
the teachers reports, hence there must
be no carelessness along this line on the
teachers and directors part. Directors
must follow the low on this point and
issue no warrant to any teacher, for the
last months wages, until register and
all reports are filed.
| have visited twenty six schools in
the county this year and collected much
information concerning our schools,
which will prepare for the press as
soon as have an opportunity. Many
school could not be reached during the
present term, but l will promise Won
that every school shall receive due at
tention the coming term.
In behalf of the many good teachers
OF Washington County, | will say that
they exhibit the zeal and enthusiasm
worthy the profession. TO all good di-
rectors and patrons, l tender my thanks
and ask a continuance of their hearty
cooperation with me in trying to elevate
u public schools to that plane of ex-
cellency n efficiency that will give
the hest opportunities to the rising gem

joined as n private and because of his
youth and activity he was soon made
color bearer for his regiment; later he
was orderly for several commanders and
was transferred rapidly from one post to
another.
At the second battle OF Manassas he
was orderly for Stonewall Jackson and
passed through the Maryland campaign,
winding up at Sharpsburg, September
II, 1862. He was in the Gettysburg bat
tie and several of the greatest battles of
Lee afterwards. Being transferred to
Gen. Jones' command he particip ated in
all the last skirmishcs fought in South
west Virginia and East Tennessee. His
army experiences were vivid and to ali
old soldiers his descriptions were pcculi-
arly interesting. Had his inclination
led that way, there is no living man that
was better equipped for writing the his
tory of the war in a more fascinating
style, and II is to be regretted that his
inclination did not lead him in that di-
rection.
He was member of the Methodist
Church, South, and he told the writer
this week while his mind was compare
lively calm and vigorous thatin religion
his feelings had never varied Il hairs
breadth and this he repeated two or
three times.
His remains were taken to Marion, Va,
on sunday morning, and there where
his father and relatives are buried, his
last resting place may he found.

Soon after the war he was en-
gagged in the publication of the Visitor,
in Marion, Va, subsequently buying
out the Patriot, and in conjunction with
James Kennedy, his brotherin law, con.
soIldaied the two papers, and run it for
time, making an interesting and
valuable paper of it. He has for many
years been n contributor to some of the
papers of the country and his articles
always attracted attention by their
clearness, force and conciseness.

to Johnson City. A majority of the
people in the sections not directly inter-
ested kicked vigorously against it,.
Later on building a bridge across the
Nolachucky at Jackson's Ford was de-
termined.
There was another repetition of vigor-
Gus kicks from the remote sections,
with the overshadowing objection that
not one man out of every 500 of Wash.
ington CouEty's citizens would eyer
have occasion to cross it, The horizon
of these chronic DIRECTORS was too mar
row to allow them to consider the fact
that the value of the real estate lying
within the territory of these much
needed Improvements would be greatly
enhanced and the county treasury
would be materially replenished: that
it was n safe and permanent invest
ment at high rate of interest.
Still later on the County Court ven
tured to buy a machine to crush rock
with which to m~acadamize the public
roads. Then the bowls came thick,
fast, and furious from the outlying
districts that Jonesboro and johnson
City would get all the benefits of the
investment. And now when it is pro.
posed to build two or three more
bridges cross the river, which has
become dangerous and almost impas.
sable as every point by the action of
the big freshets in late years, the old
silly clamor of special favors to special
sections is raised.
With malice to none and the friend.
Hest feeling for ali, we say that this
opposition, in the main, is based on
pure, unadulterated, cussed parsimony
and lack of public pride. More anon.

1T is a noteworthy and interesting
TACT that all the evils and abuses that
the present Legislature is "reforming''
with such marked diligence, assiduity
and alacrity are evils and abuses
heaped upon the people by the Demo
Gratis themselves. The present Legis.
lature virtually declares that all per
nicious Democratic Legislatures, that
cover nearly the past thirty years, were
composed of imbeciles, incompetents
and knaves. Were it to include itself
in its indirect statement, it would be
very close to the truth.

THE GREAT QUESTION.

President Mckinley, in his inaugural
address. deals UNANIMOUSLY with all the
great issues before the country. But
he rightfully considers the tariff as the
momentous question, overshadowing
all others in importance. The people
must have work; the wheels of indus.
try must be put in motion; and the
cruel conditions that harass, Cypress
and beggar labor must be removed.
We must have the money to pay our
obligations as they accrue and at the
same time decrease the public debt.
There must be no more bond deals,
either secret or open. The country
must get back to the good, old fat
times of prosperity just as rapidly as
possible. This wise policy requires
immediate action. The country can
wait for all other establishments with.
out serious damage. But its impover
ished toilers a not wait for dinner
whilst they are starving mol for clothes
whilst they are naked. They are eager
and impatient and have a right to be.
They have the first claim and the
President has recognized this fact. A
protective tariff is the first thing on
docket.

all we can get in return for our un-
selfish efforts is our limited share of
the c~onveniences and benefits that &C.
crue to the general public.
For years we have had a good deal to
say about our county roads. We have
submitted many suggestions and plans
for their improvement that we deemed
feasible and we are certain that had
they been adopted they would have
proved time, labor and money ayers
in the end, and we would now have
a splendid system of public thorough.

any impression. We have been re.
