IT MIGHT BE WORSE.

One T.. L. James gets this BIT Of fine
English and hystena printed in the col
unns of the New York Times. over his
signature, and probably feels happy:
rs there no balm in Gilcad? Is there
no physician there?' These are ques-
tons of serious moment for every one to
consider As we turn southwark. what
do we see? Blind justice, with insatiate
and bloody weapon, is stalking through
the land. dealing out Vengeance in the
preparation Of the most iiihlrman slaugI-
ter that ever darkened the pages of hiss
tory. No class Of sayages can compete
with the work Of fiendishness as carried
On by a Southern mob. Nowhere else
in this wide world can such injustice -
on without receiving its check"
Softly. Jimmy, softly We are pretty
bad doubtless, but we don't decay it, and
we have plenty Of physicians and don't
care to import any. Bad as we are,
however, there are other places I'm the
wide world a good deal worse. We
don't shoot the negro because he wants
TO work, as they do in Illinois: we don't
beat him with baseball bats for standing
on the beach to see an excursion party
land as they do in New York State; we
don't partially fay and then tar ana
feather preachers as they recently did
in Massachusetts; we don't throw bricks
at women and children for riding on
street cars as they have been doing IN
New York city; we don't blow up street
ears with dynamite as they are now do
ing in Cleveland, Ohio: and lastly we O.
not allow our lumatcs to run at large o.
print their letters in the newspapers as
they do in New York.
Yes, we are pretty bad, but we are
far and away the most peaceable, the
most law-abiding and the mest moral
people Of the Union. And we recognize
our faults and are doing our best to
mend them.

THE A. & N. COLLEGE.

| The action of the trustees OF tins col
| lege at their first meeting after the cleo
ton of President Geo. /. Winston SHOWS
thai both the trustees and the new presl-
DENT have Il clear conception of its
needs and firm purpose to supply Them.
Stems were taken for procuring at once
i nlant for textile Instruction: military
discipline was adopted as the proper sys-
tenn for regulating the time, hah2ts,
health, morals, and conduct OF the young
men, the preparatory department was
abolished; the regulation admitting We
men was modified so us to receive them
only for textile and other technical in
struction not now provided i'll the STATE
School for Women in Greensboro; Scnol-
arships We're assigned to the members of
the Legislature and the trustees of the
college; and steps We're taken TO place
the college library upon proper bass
of management.
Everyone of the measures is most
important and far-reaching.
The procuring of the textile plant and
the beginning of instruction there will
mark a new educational era in North
Carolina.
Military discipline means freedom
from late hours, extravagant and vicious
habits. idleness, foolishness and college
snobhery. 1t means economy of time
labor, strength. aud character. 1t means
system, order, regularity and business
principles applied to the daily habits Of
young men for four years. We think
such training will specially fit them foe
responsible business positions in active
life.
The abolition of the preparatory dc.
partment means a regard for scholarship
rather than numbers. 1t means educa
tional self-respect 1t lifts the college at
once upon a high plane of culture ami
most wise and salutary.
Resembling the resolution to, admit
women was eminently wise and proper.
Admitting them to textile instruction
was equally wel-considered. They are
also to be admitted to other purely tech
nical training on special application.
Thus the college will not conflict with
the college in Greensboro.
The assignment of scholarships to mem
bers of the Legislature viii soon bring
to it boys from every county in the State
and thus all the people will have its ben
Gifts. 1t win be a State college and not
a local school.
The steps to produce real library and
teach the students how to use books as
well as tools are in the direction of real
education
Rarely has any board Of trustees done
so many important things nj enc meet
ing. The future of the college is already
assured.
