STILL AFTER THE CHART MEN.

Supervisor A. w. Cooper, of Onslow
county, writes Supt Mebane that the
schools down there bought charts for
$50 each, paying $19 and $1S still due
If the last $1S is not paid, in accordance
with Mr.. Mebane's advice, the chart
men will take them back and the S1S
already paid will be lost. What shall
we do?" asks Mr. Cooper. Better lose
the $1S already paid" replies Mr.. Me-
bane, than throw away $1S more for
a chart not worth half that amount"

who N an interview Yesterday prac-

in Cuba, Porto Rico erd the Philip
pines was thoroughly established and
needed no aid outside nj itslef.
Father Murphy expresses the. be-
lief that the United States will find it
wise to adopt a liberal policy toward
the islanders and assume all the
church obligations that obtained be-
tween Spain and her colonies. In 9TH
ers words endow the churches and
provide for their maintenance as has
been done for past years.
The reverend gentleman says:
England, the greatest successful CO.
lonlal power since the fall of the
Roman empire, found it the wisest
policy to accept the conditions as she
found them and allow the people of
conquered territory all the rights they
enjoyed before. She did it in Canada,
India and all other colonies. Other
powers have failed of success because
