During the past year the board OF
trustees appropriated $4,000 to erect
building for Textile Training
School. This building is similar in
design to a small model cotton factory
and is to be equipped with specimen
machinery. for the work Of all depart
ments of IA real cotton factory. Be-
sides lectures aud text books study on
the manufacture of cotton, each stu
dent will be required to study the
construction and use Of the machinery
used for this purpose; and this will be
done under the direction Of compe-
tent instructors.
Next to agriculture, the manufac-
ture of cotton is the most important
Industry in the State. 1t would
seem, therefore, that textile school
is next in Importance to an agrlcui-
tural school. 1t is important from
two points of view: l, Because of
the number of people already engaged
in it, aud because of the probab lity
that that number will continue to in
crease; 2, Because it is the chief oc-
cupation to which the youth OF our
State may look for profitable employ
ment.
PENSIONS.
This State is now paying out an
nually in pensions to Confederate SOL
diers the sum of 100000.
Our own system of pensions is in
need Of changes and reforms. 1t is
expensive aud cumbersome, and GOO
open to those solicitations Of iufu-
O zee and fayolitism that Invite abuses
aud encourage extravaganza. The
system should be simpli6ed, aod its
regulations and restrictions be made
strict and even rigorous. The town
ship and county boards should be
abolished aud application for pensions
m,dp to the State board. The sum
uow expended in this way, 800, 600, is
more than the State can afford, and
more than is required to satisfy the
just demands upon the fund. This
noncy is now being too iudiscrlmi-
,,atcly distributed, with loss to the
State aud with injustice to somc bene-
6cia,ies ard favoritism to others.
recommend that the pension list
be purgcd, aud thai 5000 only be
appropriated for peusious the con'ng
year, aud that steps be taken to insure
the proper distribution of this amount.

The Care Of Soldiers Graves.

When President Mckinley made the
suggestion that the United States gov
eminent should care for the graves of
the soldier dead of the Confederacy.
as it does for those of the Union, his
words were applauded as evidence that
all bitterness had gone. the issues Of
the war forgotten. The President was
he'd to this suggestion by a trip he had
made to Virginia, where. according to
report he had seen many neglected
Confederate graves, while in all the
governments national cemeteries the
places where sleep the Union dead are
well cared for from month to month
and from year to year. For this the
Federal government pays, setting aside
a sum every year and appointing men
whose duty it is to see that the work
is well done. 1t was the Presidents
plan to extend the same supervision to
those cemeteries in which large num-
bers of Confederate soldiers lie buried,
in order to show that the nation recog
nized their bravery and the heroism
which led them to gallant deeds in a
cause they believed was right.
During the Confederate reunion at
Charleston marked opposition to this
generous plans was manifested. This
does not mean that old issues have
been revived. or that the union of
North and South is not complete.
strong and perfect Far from it. The
men gathered at Charleston, though
many of them fought for the Confed-
eracy. are now as true. earnest and pa
triotic supporters of the government
as can be found anywhere. Among
number Of them. however. the sentl-
ment prevails that the South should
care for its soldier dead without the
aid of the government. This is wholly
a matter for the South to decide. and
whatever may be its decision, no harm
can have been done by President Nc
kinley's suggestion.

that the rooster in question was the
one formerly used on rare occasions by
the Argus to celebrate Democratic vic

ably made it savage and blOodthirsty.
