y EsSTHE GLORIOUS FOURTH.

The old time Fourth of July eelebra-
tons served the purpose of keeping fresh
in the minds of the people the blessings
of free and equal government.
Is the fact that we have departed from
these old-tims celebrations responsible
for the lowering Of the public deals?
There can be no real and fitting cele-
bration of the Fourth Of July without
emphasizing the principles enunciatel in
the Declaration Of Independence, ana the
study Of the life of jefferson, the IN
carnation Of those living truths.
I The nearer we keep to the statement
'All men are created free and equal,
and to the spirit than animated Jefferson,
the higher Will be cur ideals Of govern
ment and the purer viii be the admin
istration Of government required Of those
who hold public position.
s.An men are created free and equal"
This declaration rallied more men to
the armies Of Washington than hostility
to the tax on tea, and the old-time oele-
brations served to keep alive that Demo-
cratic doctrine. With politics controlled
by such a wholesome sentiment, there
would be no room for the Hannas and
The Brices IN public life; no liberation for
the prevailing rule of trusts and monopo-
lies; no patience with the snobbery and
funkeyism that obtai1r8I high places.
We need revival OH = ld-time cele-
bration when speeclles apostrophizing
liberty, if little top-lofty, made men
love their country because it>gave equal
ity of opportunity to all. We need to re-
call the struggles of the fathers to secure
liberty: we need to use as an incentive
to their sons to be willing to antagonize
selfish interests in order to preserve it.
We are disposed too often to look back
upon great struggles as that of 1776 and
regret that this generation has no equal
opportunity to show its valor and love
Of country. In this we err. There is
never wanting wrongs to right and foes
of Justice to encounter. The domination
: Of the colonies by England was not
more grasping and oppressive than the
rule of the money power of to-day. II
the spirit that controlled Washington
and Jefferson animated the people to-
day, they would drive out of the temple
of government the money-changers who
have polluted it, and make it once more
the temple where the humble man stood
the equal Of the greatest.

A WAVELET OF PROSPERITY
Greensboro Record.)

On the last day of last month a d.
vidend was declared which is of unusual
interest to the public for the reason that
several property owners in North and
South Carolina get the benefit of it, This
was a semi-annual dividend of ten per
cent declared by the Directors of the
Southern Stock Mutual Insurance Com
pany of Greensboro, n. G. This dividend
is for the benefit of the policy holders,
the people who insure their property in
the company, and will be welcomed by
the many friends of the Company
throughout its territory.
We are advised by the officers Of the
company that the business for this year
shows a very handsome increase. over
the business Of the corresponding period
Of 1896, and that unless the losses are
excessive for the remainder of the year,
the total dividends to policy-holders for
the year 1897 win amount to not less
than twenty per cent, the same as for
the years 1895 and 1896.
We have much cause for self congratu-
lation in the fact that we have here at
| home strong, successful insurance COM
| pany which is investing at home a part
Of the money paid into it for insurance,
and is returning the remainder to the
people who insure their property in it.
| The Southern Stock Mutual Insurance
Company has been met at every step of
Its progress with strenuous opposition
! aaa~bitter criticism, but it has triumphed
over every difficulty and has established
itself with a degree Of public confidence
and favor which cannot now be shaken.
The company has been eminently sue
cessful in making most satisfactory ad-
justments Of it's losses, and no company
ihas paid its losses so promptly we wish
it continued success and prosperity.

UNIVERSITY SUMMER SCHOOL.

of the University. they are all in the d-

to the people.
In no way does the University accom-

of the people and it reaches them by
means of the Summer Schools for teach
crs. The Summer School was created as a
now department of the University three
years ago, and each summer has seen the

The fourth session which is now being
held is the largest in attendance and the
best rs to advantages ever offered. For
no school in America can have special
lists superior to McMurry in pedagogics,
Moses in primary teaching, Jackman in
Natural study. Milne in mathematics,
Hume in English, and Gordy in History.
Besides these there are Is other instruc-
tors, specialists in their departments, the
best that can be found in North Carolina,
representing the University faculty, the
city schools, and private schools.
This school was designed for work,
and those who are here, have come for
that purpose. Attending the University
Summer School does not mean merely
listening to lectures. Though there are
lectures instructive and inspiring. But
the members are students as well as
listeners and they may be seen at work
in the library, in the chemical geological,
and biological laboratories, and on scien-
tifc excursions into the country about
Chapel Hill.
Some of the courses deal altogether
with principles of education and methods
of teaching. Others are academic and are
for the purpose of instruction in certain
languages and sciences.
The patronage of the school represents
all parts of the State and all sorts of
educational interests. There are primary
teachers from city schools who are eager
to enrich their course with nature study
and drawing; high school teachers who
are learning better methods of conduct
ing their classes and who are acquiring
a knowledge Of French and geology;
superintendent of city schools and prin-
cipals Of private schools, who are on the

There Is always more or Tess suspicion

generosity that he cannot rest until his

that his fellow men may profit by what

desires to send free to mankind a pre-

it costs nothing to try the experiment it
ould seem that any man, suffering with
the nervous troubles that usually attack
men who never stopped to realize what
might be the final result, ought to be
4eply interested in q remedy which will

REPUBLICAN, CAUCUS.
1t will he Called Together To-Day to Talk
Over Tariff Matters.

Washington. June chairman ALI
son Of the republican senatorial eau
Gus decided to-day to call the caucus
together Tomorrow. The meeting has
been under contemplation for several
days. owing TO the fact that there are
various articles on which II has been
found desirable to have the party in
the senate agree in its assembled ca
pacity. but the calling of the caucus
was precipitated by the fact that the
sugar schedule has been practically
reached in its order, and II became nee
essary to decide what position the
party should take upon this question.
There has been very pronounced oppo-
sition among many republican senators
10 the schedule. as prepared by the SEN
ate committee on finance. some of them
going so far as to declare they would
not vote for II unless altered. Some of
these senators declare they will not
obey even the behest OF the caucus In
case II declares for the finance commit
tees schedule. The finance committee
admit this state of affairs and also ad-
init that a change will be made which
will make the schedule acceptable to
the entire party in the senate There
are various suggestions as to what
change will he made. but the mater is
as yet in such chaotic shape as to rem
der IL impossible for even the republl-
can leaders tn state what may be done
Senator Aldrich Is expected 10 be
present at the caucus. He is con-
valescent. and hs friends say he will
be able to attend to-morrow's meeting
There are various other questions
which will be taken up in the caucus
IL the sugar question does not occupy
the entire time. These include the tea
duty. the agitation for an increase on
wool. the beer tax. the proposition to
tax bank checks. deeds. etc. the hide
duty, the lead ore rates. etc. The indi-
cations now are very strong that beer
and tea will both go out OF the bill.
This Is practically decided upon by the
committee, unless theyare found TO be
absolutely necessary for revenue. II Is
also quite certain there will be an in
crease in the wooden duty. The sup
porters of the hide duty and OF the sem
ate rate on lead ore express confidence
that these will remain untouchea
Senator Nelson's antitrust amendment
will also be brought to the attention OF
the caucus IL opportunity offers.
