The Baltimore American seems to

the American, that the change in the
Spanish government will lead to a. r,o,-

Is THE PRESIDENT ~ EARNEST:

There are very many people In this

Presidents sincerity in his expressions

in Its favor, the persons to whom he has
intrusted the details OF the administra-

says that in that city the efforts of
the underllngs to set aside the civil SER

and encouraE cement from Washington.
The same IS true IN other parts of the
country. concerted effort Is In pro-

a TEXTILE SCHOOL IN nALH1Gu

The News and Observer tells us that
an effort Is being mace to establish n
textlle school in Raleigh, ana that at a
recent meeting Of the Executive Com
mNtee OF the Agricultural and Mechan-
cal College Alumni Association. held in
the office of the North Carolina Expert
ment Station. in THAI city, steps were
taken towards securing the co-upcration
OF the college authorities and the mill
men Of the State In establishing a tex
tile school In connection with that col
lege.
our contemporary, writing on the sub
1ectr says that there is at present being
agitated all over the South, especially
by the Manufacturers Record of Ralti-
more a movement to establish at some
point IN the Southern States q textile
training school, similar 10 the Philadel-
phia Textile School. The value OF such
q school to the South would be incalcul
able. for now when Southern Young
man wants to Learn the cotton or
WOODEN manufacturing business he mus,
go to some Northern school, or In some
Northern mill or engineers office. The
consequence is that most of our mill
snperintendcnts and managers are
Northern men. wi l., our boys, though
Just as capable, ii lay be, are forced
to seek other fields 4 Southern Try
tile school Of high order would change
this and Southern Textile School In
fa!eigh would give 10 Raleigh Young
men, and to other North Carolina young
men all over the South, a chance to per
feet themselves in the mnut!a of the
South's coming industry"
This is all very true, and tho hone Is
that our friends may succeed in cstab
fishing the school in Raleigh. Certainly
IL IS needed and If successful will be a
benefit to the entire South.

BRAND cHANCELLoR's REPORT.

shows Ninety-Nine Castle Halls in
ishfng.
Grand Chancellor G. Henry Cohen Of
the Grand Lodge Of knights of Pythias of
Georgia made his annual report yester-
day.
This is the most interesting document
that will be laid before the consideration
of the members of the grand lodge, as Il
bears upon the condition of the order in
the state and tells of the possibilities that
lie in the future. The report of the
grand chancellor is always looked upon
at the annual conventions as the key to
the situation, and the delegates from the
various subordinate lodges from every
quarter Of the state look to it for their
information concerning the general con-
dition of affairs of their sister lodges
from the mountains to the sea.
The report of Grand Chancellor Cohen
is a particularly interesting one. since the
advance made by the Pythians in the state
the past year has been remarkable
Among other statements and exhibits,
the report of the grand chancellor con-
tains the following:
with eminent satisfaction, and with
some degree OF pardonable personal pride,
/ bear the gladstone intelligence that Py-
thiansm, during my administration, has
kept the pace set by my jealous and IL
lustrious predecessors. When the reins of
government of the order in Georgia we've
confided to my keeping the banner of Py-
thianism, when waited to the breezes,
showed ninety stars that were brighten
ing the pathway of humanity in their bat
tie of life. To-day that same banner is
being waited over our beloved domain,
and ninety-nine stars shed their protecting
aegis over castle halls in every section of
this grand old state. The labors of a
grand chancellor in establishing castle
halls In an order like ours are more to
be minimized than exaggerated, for its vir-
tues speak for themselves, and are its most
eloquent advocates wherever they are
known, and they are rapidly being known
everywhere. The danger that confronts
us IN the future Is not so much the estab-
fishing of new castle halls as 1t is to pre-
vent the establishment of castle halls in
localities where their future prosperity Is
of doubtful possibility. Where an entire
neighborhood is at the outset marshaled
into a new castle hall its future is
a most doubtful problem, for unless N
has new material occasionally to brighten
its precincts the probabilities are that
their swords and vizors become rusty
from hoh-use' Ahis uahseF as our order
grows larger becomes more and more n
threatening menace. And I can commend
to my successor no more useful heritage OF
work for the good of the order than the
cementing aud Strengthening of the cas-
tie halls now in our domain rather than
the production OF new sprigs whose
growth and maturity are of such ques-
tionable possibility.
Il submit as an addenda to this report
the history OF the lodges established dur-
ing my term, with their localities, mem
