WHAT OTHERS SAY.
THE FACTS ARE HISTORY
Biblical Recorder.

Biblical Recorder.
Now we are prepared to consider the
question of facts: First: Is there n
negro on the Board of Directors of these
white and colored blind) institutions :
James III. Young, negro, was a mem
Der of the Board until this summer. when
he resigned to take n place in the vol
unteer army. Second: Did this negro
inspect the institution for the white
children? He did; there is a certificate
signed by him certifying that he did
We are glad that these facts are past
history; glad that no negro is now on
the Board. 1t would not be abhorrent
to have one or more negroes, intelligent
and of good character, on Il board gov
erning an institution for negro children
and it may be said that Young was
made a member of the Board in question
in order to look after the institution for
negro children. But the fact stands bald
that he had equal powers with the white
members of the Board in the conduct of
the institution for white children; and
those who know him know that he is not
slow to try to assert such power. If
there must be Il negro to look after the
institution for negroes, let there be two
boards. But there exists no necessity.
And, in passing. the same declaration
applies with equal force to the free
schools of North Carolina. If there
must be n negro to look after the free
schools for negroes in n township. let
there be two committees. But there
exists no necessity.
The people of North Carolina had bet
ter give the negroes once for all to under
stand that, though politicians may cater
to them for their votes. the negro race
must keep to its place both for the good
of the race and the welfare of the State.
When the Anglo-SaXon becomes inferior
TO the African, then we may consider the
necessity Of putting negroes on boards
under which are both white and colored
children. Meanwhile the sensible negro.
the unselfis negro. will recognize that
it is better, infinitely better, for him AMI
his children to have white boards and
white committees to look after their wei
fare; but the demagogue, both white and
black. will continue to harrangue the
negroes about their rights" and ''re-
cogntion," seeking, of course, an office,
not for a moment caring. never having
dreamed of caring, either for the State
or for the negro race.

Washington. Sept. G.-The weekly
Bulletin of the Agricultural Department
is as follows:
The abnormally high temperatures
throughout the week have been favOrapie
for maturing crops, more particularly
over the central and northern PORTIONS
of the country from the MISSISSIPPI var
ley eastward, while in Kansas, NeDrasKa
South Dakota and portions OF Missouri
hot winds have proved injurious. III
the central and western Gulf States the
week has also been generally favorable.
but i'll the south Atlantic portions OF
the East Gulf States excessively heavy
rains have caused much damage On
the Pacific coast the conditions have
been favorable.
Corn has made rapid progress toward
maturity under the abnormally high tenn
perature conditiUlEN a large part of the
crop in States where it is usually exposed
to danger from frosts being now safe,
and the remainder will mature earlier
than usual. Late corn has been seriously
injured by hot winds in South Dakota,
Nebraska. Kansas and Missouri whlle
heavy rains have caused rOtting and
Gulf States.
Cotton has suffered seriously from
rust, shedding and insects over the
eastern portion of the cotton belt, from
which sections numerous reports of rot
ting and sprouting are also received, es-
pecially in Georgia and the CarOlinas,
where the rainfall has been eXceptionl-
~ heavy. In Louisiana and Texas re-
ports of shedding and damage by in
sects are less numerous than in the pre-
ceding week. In the last named State
rain is needed for late cotton and tn"
top crop. Cotton is opening visibly in all
districts, and picking is progressing fa-
y0rably over the central and western
portions, but has been retarded by rains
in portions of the eastern section.
Most of the early tobacco has been
cut and housed. under favorable condi-
tions, and the late crop is generally
promising.
The soil conditions over the central
and northern districts of the country
east Of the Mississippi river have con
tinued favorable for blowing, but in
Missouri Kansas and Nebraska it has
been too dry for this work.

When the Board or Agriculture con-
ferred the power on Loge Harris and
another to appoint such additional fer
tilizer inspectors as in their judgment
seemed necessary" this paper gave the
prophecy that not fertilizer inspectors,
but political fioor-walkers would be APP
pointed. The prophecy has been justified.
Men are drawing money from the farm
er's fund to whip white men into line
and make them vote for negroes. Harris
has established an intelligence bureau
as an adjunct to the Rad.-Pop headquar-
tiers. 1t is thus that the farmers of
North Carolina are cared for.

Before drawing any comparisons be-
tween the English campaign in the
Soudan and the American campaign at
Santiago, it is necessary to note that the
English fought in an absolutely open
country where artillery and cavalry could
be used to the best advantage. The en-
envy came on in body and it was a
straight stand-up-and-ight affair.
There was no shooting by an unseen
enemy. If the conditions had been the
same at Santiago the campaign would
doubtless have been equally brief. 1t
was equally glorious as it was.

Why does Georgia boast of sew
enty.six cotton mills, while Arkan-
sas has only two or three2 Why
does North Carolina have 1850 mills2
Is there any good reason why Ark
sas should not have, in proportion
to wealth and population, as many
mills as North Carolnaor or Georgia!
We raise an immense crop of cot
ton every year, 100000 to 500, 900
bales, but we send it abroad to
manufacture, We have an abund-
ance of food, labor is plenty, abund-
auce of fuel, a mild climate where
men can work and mills can run all
the year Why do we not have the
factories?-[ Arkansas Democrat.
1t is easy to ask questions,
oftimes hard to answer. We ven
ture an opinion. The main reason
we have so few cotton factories, is
because of a lack of enterprise. Our
monied men are entirely to slow and
"pOkey to venture into
new factories. A North Carolina
town of only few hundred inhabi-
tants, built its first cotton factory
upon the cooperative plainly
small monthly payments upon
stock, like building and loan associ-
ations. Afterwards it built num-
Der of large ones the same way, and
became a hourishing, progressive
city. Two or more years since we
wrote columns about that success
full move, and tried to get our peo-
pie to follow suit-but no, nobody
would take hold. Another thing
our laws are not as liberal toward
such new enterprises, as Georgia,
which allows them to run ten years
free fromj taxation. 1t is high
time we were awaking from our
lethargic slumber, and becoming a
cotton manufacturing state like
Georgia.

HON j. N. CARTER

When We wrote the editorial au-
nouucemeut last week OF the candi-
dacy Of Hon T, C. McRae, for re-
election to congress from this dis
trict we had heard not the slightest
intimation that Hon. Jacob Monroe
Carter, our present efficient prose
cutting attorney, would enter the
race for the nomination for the
position. We learned OF his candi-
dacy first on last Saturday, and the
rumor was confirmed by a private
letter received from him Monday.
SO, we take back what we said
about there being no man in the
district who would offer for the
place against Mr. McRae, and are
very much inclined 10 recede from
our statement that Mr. McRae
would have walk over. We are
now very much of the opinion that
Mr.. Carter will make the race at
least a very lively and interesting
one. He is a hustler, and combined
with his great energy and untiring
zeal, he has the very happy faculty
Of making friends and binding them
to him with bands of steel. Every
body in this judicial district at least
knows Monroe Carter. He was born
and partially raised in our adjourn
ing county of Pike, and has lived
and practiced law for the past ten
years in our adjoining county OF
! Miller. He is now closing his Sec
ond term of prosecuting attorney
of this judicial district In his last
race for that position he defeated
for the nomition one of the most
popular attorneys in the district
carrying every county in the district
in the primaries. He has filled the
Office with marked ability, and in
so he has added to his already large
circle or friends. He is a stauuCh
true, dyed-in-the.wool democrat
and announces that he stands fiat

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is caused by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an infamed condition of
the mucous Inning of the eustachian
tube. When this tube is infamed
you have a rumbliGg sound or inn
perfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
DESTROYED forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by catarrh, which is
nothing but an inhamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
