For What Purpose ?

The School Commissioners want the
county to add 500, 900 or 500 900 to its
debt for new school buildings.
In view of the majority last month
in this county of 1,o96 out of 2,lSS
votes cast-S,000 voters not express
ing themselves at all--against the
merit system of ascertaining fitness for
holding office, the JOURNAL would like
to learn what use the people have for
education
If it is not indispensable to the man
who holds office, what can it be in the
way of a decoration to the man who
doesn't aspire to serve his count1y9
Hence, to give with one hand So to
educate our children and with the
other put a ballot in the box which
sponges their names off the politicians

The JOURNAL has received a copy of
"An Grafton delivered by the Rey.
James Battle Avirett," delivered in
Winchester, Va, Sept. II, 1897, on the
occasion of laying the cornerstone of
a monument to commemorate the
valor of the North Carolina soldiers in
the Army of Northern Virginia. AS
a chaplain IN that immortal host
militant, Mr.. Avirett was witness of
its deeds, and as a historian, philoso-
pher and orator, he is well equipped
with fact, conclusion and phrase to in
form, instruct and delight the lovers
of heroism everywhere. Without
drawing invidious comparisons he
makes up a record for the Old North
State worthy of epic verse. Her con-
tributlons of men and money, cheer
fully made, and losses of blood and
treasure, bravely borne, are set forth
in terms whose eloquent pathos may
be pardoned by the stoutest skeptic of
the right or wisdom of secession.
This pamphlet of 30 pages, published
by Charles B. Rouss, of New York,
and dedicated" to the patronesses of
Confederate memorial-''th Mothers,
Wives, Sisters and Daughters of the
Army of Northern Virginia''-will not
fail to be regarded by North CAROLYN
ians as a valuable accession to their
State literature.

that ''they will in future appeal to ar

unconsciously admitted that only one
thing was in the way of suc:ess-''the
laws Of nature"
Gentlemen of the plentiful money
cult, those laws are exactly the insur-
mountable obstacles which stand be-
tween free coinage and your promised
land of high prices and unlimited
prosperity.
In nothing 50 much as money is
Natures first aw-''self preservation, -

AS a matter of fact, money constant
ly gravltates to scarcity, the base of
all that creates value.
Hence, it is a negation of all known
philosophy to multiply results without
cheapening them.

MIne Inspectors Report.

The following synopsis of Inspector
Hohing's report has been published:
The output of coal exceeds that of 1896 by
$50 900 tons. and is the largest in the history
of the region. There were five fatal accidents,
one less than last year, and the decrease Is
referred to as showing that scientific methods
are followed to protect life.
After noting various improvements at diff
terent mines, the report remarks that the rate
of wages in the region remains the same, and
that the amicable relations between the COM
panies and their employees are also unchanged.
In this connection Inspector Hohing says the
MARYLAND miners are to be congratulated
upon their good judgment in refusing last
summer to join the strike of the Pittsburg
region This course" he continues ''is far
safer than to give audience to the pleadings
of visiting agitators who have no interest in
their welfare
MY report last year incurred some ad-
verse criticism on account of the statements
made concerning the benefits of the semi
monthly paw law of 1896. This was INDUCED
principally by people not interested in mines,
mining nor miners. | deem it my privilege
to say now, however, that | was then speak
ing more specifically of the miners than of
the general public, and in that sense | cannot
yet see that the operations of the law make
much difference. But as it seems to be ex-
pected by my critics that | should speak for
all concerned, directly and indirectly, am
free to say that the obedience given by the
companies to the enactment is ON the whole
beneficial.
The companies are perfectly satisfied with
the semimonthly pay bill They have
cheerully complied with all its provisions,
and desire to do all that can be done to ben
eft the miners. For my own part, | have
no prejudice in the matter whatever. | have
not been and am not now opposed to the
law
will close this subject by expressing the
opinion that if the miners were left to discuss
among themselves this and kindred ques-
tons concerning their welfare, | doubt
whether SO much complaint as is frequently
represented would be heard from them.
In conclusion Mr.. Hohing says he does not
find it necessary to suggest any further legis-
latiOn rega rCinr the mines
