LOOK TO The SCHOOLS.

One of the most important matters
fcr the consideration of those whom
the people honor to represent them
in the coming General Assembly, is
the school question. The liquor and
all other questions pale into insignlh-
canoe beside this one important mat
ter. What is to become Of the educa-
tional interests if our representatives
are not called upon to look after them?
Here we are up to Our necks IN a
campaign and the voters are asked to
support certain men for high position;
and we are yet to hear the school
system discussed.
It matters not who is elected, the
men thus honored ought to give the
matter OF improving our school sys-
tenn diligent study, for the vitality Of
our government depends upon the
education of the people and we be-
lieve a scheme can be devoived by
which this State can give its people a
better system of public schools than
they are receiving at present, without
the increasing Of taxes. In our opin-
ion, there is sufficient sum OF mon
ey collected for school purposes to
run the schools eight months in the
year, and if it is not done it is be-
cause the same is managed in a bung-
ling and cumbersome manner. We
believe the same amount of money
managed as a successful business
man handles his private business,
would give US fine system Of free
schools instead of what we do get.
So, instead of going daft on the Dis
pensary or Prohibition, and making
that secondary question first, let US
make the schools the uppelmost Ques-
ton and let side issues come after
wards.
We ask the question, Is our State
giving its children as much educa-
The Manning times. [volume] (Manning, Clarendon County, S.C.) 1884-current, 1898-08-10

ton as they should have for the
amount of taxes collected? II not,
WIZ not: rbis is more important it
strikes US, than the running after
shadows like Prohibition" Do the
teachers employed in the public
schools teach? is another matter
needing investigation. The marking
out Of lessons for children TO recite is
not teaching, and it is not what the
taxpayers expect, but nevertheless in
many instances it is ali they get.
There should be some way of ascer-
tanning teachers qualifications be-
fore he is employed in the public
schools It is true they are required
to stand an examination, if they are
not graduates OF a college, but this
is not a fair Test. An applicant to
teach may have diploma from Yale
or Harvard and be nc more quallhed
to teach children than a blacksmith
would be to make watches, and we
regret to say it, however it IS true,
there are many men and women now
drawing money from the school funds
sor teaching, who are failures and are
actually impediments in the way OF a
child's search for learning. These
people should not have certificates to
teach. Where is the blame for such
condition? 1t is il the present cum
bersome system. There are too
many so-called schools; a young man
seeking profession teaches school
to make enough money to put bin
through college; that man has no
idea OF making teaching profession
and his heart is not in the work and
his work is therefore mechanical;
there is no congeniality between his
mind and the minds OF his scholars;
the result is indifference on the part
OF the teacher and carelessness on the
part of the child, and the consequeu-
ces are fatal TO the child.
II preacher stood in his pulpit
and preached for so many dollars per
month and his heart and soul was not
in his work, the congregation would
soon discover il, and another would
be called; if a clerk in q store work
ed mechanically, and did not take an
interest in bis employers affairs he
would soon be out of q job. Then
why should not the same apply to our
schools? 1t is said that some new
fad strikes us every few years, suppose
we become ssfaddy" on the subject OF
improvement of our public schools
that our children may not suffer from
our neglect.

Itreally does seem as though the
News and Courier has degenerated
into a sewer to receive and carry of
the filth which flows from the Colum-
bia Record. Ever since the political
campaign opened, with wonderful
alacrity the News and Courier has
reproduced every little insinuation,
charge without proof, sneer and fling
appearing in that little afternoon bill
ious sheet against tie Governor.
The animus for MI this is accounted
for BY Governor Ellerbe refusing
to allow the News and Courier
to dictate his policy, and the peo-
pie throughout the State understand
it. That paper has never been in
touch or sympathy with the people,
it has gone up stream upon all ques-
tons which effect the people; in the
last National campaign il opposed
the Democratic party and now has
the impertinence to claim voice in
its councils. The News and CouIier
may retain its political standing with
Charleston, because that city is in the
clutch Of "Tammany" with no Park
hurst to expose its rottenuess, but
the day is coming when the good
people Of the city. will rise in their
might and turn a cleansing flow into
the Augean stables and rid themselves
OF the corruption which has accum-
ulated for years. To do this they
will appeal for ai1 to their sympathi-
zing brethren in the country, and
there will be such legislation which
will release the clutch INSCRIPTIONS
politicians, have upon the proud old
city.
The day is not far distant when the
people of Charleston viii realize that
their only morning newspaper is an
obstacle to their progress and that it
is fast building a wall around the
city and turning the rural trade from
its gates. It's pity that prejudice
can close the eyes OF the News and
Courier against its own and the city's
interests

1t was not our purpose to give en-
dorsement to any OF the candidates
running for State offices, except the
Governor and Secretary OF State,
but we feel it our duty to have
something to say about the can
didacy Of Major E. NJ. Blythe of
Greenville for the office OF Adjutant
and Inspector General. This gentle
man is in every way qualified for the
position; a graduate of the Citadel,
and for several years he was connec-
ted with the military branch Of Glenn
son College. We are sure if the peo-
pie elect him they will have no rea-
son to regret having voted for him.

LET Is ENDORSE HIN.

When Governor Ellerbe was a can
didates in 1896 tie people without
regard to faction voted for him, look
ing to him to be the means OF ooAt-
Grating tactional lines. He was elect
ed with an immense majority and
upon taking charge ofthe government
he promised to be the governor OF
the whole people, that he would re-
cocnize no faction and would endeav-
or to bring the white people together
IN harmony.
Il is admitted by friend and foe
that Ellerbe's Administration has
been clean, honest, economical and
able; his opponents on the Reform
side complain that lie has by his
conservative course madeit more dit
fcult for what is termed the "wool
hat boys" to get Office and that it is
possible for Conservatives, to have a
show in the political arena. The Con-
servatives, On the other hand com
plain, because few OF them have
been recognized and those few are
such as were conservative IN fact as
we'll as in name, and that the fellows
who raved and 'scussed" Tillman and
the Reformers were given nothing.
Governor Ellerbe had a difficult
task to perform and there is no bet
ter proof that he was successfulin the
performance of this delicate task than
the present number Of candidates for
office, from what was known as the
Conservative faction; SO it is seen
that by faithfully carrying out his
promise to recognize no faction, be
has made it possible for men to run
for Office, without any resort to fac
tional lines. And further, It must
strike the intelligent reader forcibly,
that Ellerbe has faithfully endeav-
ored to wipe out factional lines in or
der that men could be elected to OF
fee upon their qualifications, BY the
fact that none of the campaisners,
State or county, have far made any
effort to hoist the factional flag.
We therefore contend that Eilerbe
is entitled to the votes OF every man
in South Carolina who was desirous
of peace and harmony in the Demo
cratic ranks. To vote against Ellerbe
is to repudiate his course, and 1t may
possibly be taken as a wish to reopen
the old sores; it viii leave room for
the Reformers to say: the CoDserva-
tives preach peace and unity, the do
ing away with iactional lines, but prac
tice a closer fac;ional alliance IN order
to deceive the Reiormers. Let Us not
have such condition Of distrust, and
ii Governor Ellerbe has given the
State of South Carolina an honest
administration and carried oct his
pledges, as We believe he has, be
merits our votes aud should be en-
dorsed with a heavy majority.
