Rural Mail Delivery.


Rural free delivery was inaug-
urated by q republican admins
tration when John Wannamaker
was postmaster general. 1t was
then tried in shout forty selected
villages aud was q success. The
subsequent democratic admins
tration ordered it dropped, but
was compelled by congress to re.
establish it during the last year Of
that term, in 1895. Since March
1, 1897, nearly 100000 rural
homes in all parts of the United
States have been brought into
close touch with the rest of the
world by q daily visit from the
rural postman. The good work
will continue as long as there is
. republican administration at

AS was expected the administration
influence is being used to prevent &C.
tion by the senate 1t the present ses-
sion Of congress on the Nicaragus ca
nal bill, and it looks as though 1t was
going to succeed. The senate canal
committee held two meetings this
week to consider the bill passed by

quoted, but enough has leaked out to
make it reasonably certain that . ma-
jority of the committee have been A.
most. II not quite, persuaded to accept
the administration view, that the
bill should not be acted upon by the
senate until after the canal commits

mitted several weeke ago had not ar
official hint been given to withhold it.
Fears are expressed by those who
wish congress to adjourn early in June
that the resolution declaring Senator
Clark not entitled to his seat may up
set that program, II action upon that
resolution Is insisted upon before ad-
journment Senator Clark has some
good friends in the senate who think
that no harm will be done by allowing
that resolution to go over to the next

sion If an attempt IL made to force

WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENCE.
Broezy Gossip ON Various Topics
From the Nations Capital

Another wonderful discovery is to
be credited to American ingenuity.
In experimenting at the United States
proving grounds at Indian Head, few
miles below Washington, on the Po-
tomac river, our naval officers have
discovered . composition for shells
which will penetrate the heaviest ar
NOR plate made as easily as though it
we're made OF wood. This discovery,
which our government is trying to
keep secret, will revolutionize naval
warfare, ss no warships sfoat could
stand before an enemy supplied with
those shells, as they could be riddled
and sunk as easily as the old wood
ships. The news Of the new discovery
was made public through resolution
offered BY Senator Tillman, asking the
navy department for information con-
cerning experiments in testing armor
plates which had developed unexpected
results. The secretary Of the navy in
formed Mr.. Tillman that it would not
be wise to onicially answer his resolu-
tion, at the same time making him &C.
quainted with the result Of the expert
ments. This information Mr.. Tillman
gave to tho senate In executive session,
while the naval appropriation bill was
under discussion. The new shell b
the invention Of . naval ohacer. and II
its component parts can be kept secret
it will give this government a power
that will be even more feared by other
nations than the fighting qualities Of
Americans.
Col. Burton of the army, who discov-
cred the alleged defalcation in the &C.
counts Of c. W. F. Nssley, financial
agent of the Cuban postal service, in
the regular course Of his duties as an
officer of the inspectors generals de-
partment, is now In Washington for
the purpose of giving Secretary Root
all the information in his possession.
While the post Office department exer-
cises a certain amount OF supervision
over the Cuban postal system. the sys-
TEN is actually under the war depart
ment. The matter was considered at
a cabinet meeting, the general senti-
ment being that 1t should be probed to
the bottom and the guilty ones punish
ed, also that any shortage over what
can be collected from Neeley's bonds
men should be made good by this gov
eminent. The latter would probably
necessitate an act Of congress.
The senate by the decisive vote OF
40 to Is defeated the attempt to pro-
vide for reduction Of the terms OF
cadets at the naval academy from to
4 years, which the house agreed to.
Under the present law the cadets have
to spend four years at the academy
aud two at sea before being commis-
stoned. Senator Tillman, who opposed
the resolution, made characteristic
speech in reply TO Senator Foraker's
statement that the reduction was rec
commended by prominent officers, In
which he said: "They Recommend

academy myself, and if they give me

Good Roads.

We had a talk with a gentleman
not long since who lives ten miles
from Charlotte on one of the
magnificent road leading out from
the city. from FIVE to twelve miles.
like the spokes Of a great wheel.
He told us that before the road
was complete the people in his
ueighborhood drpaded the fall
hauling to town more than any
other part of the years work.
Then the great question was to find
teams to pull a bale or two of cotton
through the mud to town now the
trouble is to find wagons strong
enough to hold up as much as a
pair ofs'rabbit" mules, as he called
them, can pull. To be sure these
roads were built at enormous ex-
pense to the county, even with the
advantage of convict labor, but
they have, paid q thousand fold.
The city of Charlotte could have
afforded to have built the roads
for the benefit to the tradeof the
town; aud the farmers after all
are the ones most greatly blessed
by them. They are worth more to
q town. than the greatest trunk line
railroad in the world would be-;
and they make life in-the country
so much brighter aud happier.
Along with the other other bless
ings that will come TO North Caro-
lima within the first quarter of the
new century we earnestly hope the
improvement in country roads will
be among the most conspicuous.
It is the best sign of civilization
and progress to be able to ride
through neighborhood in. 9 trot
without danger to a broken bone.
Every town in the State ought to
take especial pride in the, roads
leading into it from every direc.

We Don't Have White Teachers
for Negro Schools In Edgefield.

The ministers of the Yorkville
district of the African Methodist
Episcopal Zion church, lately as.
semb bled, adopted a series Of reso-
lutions protesting against the put
ting of white teachers in negro
schools to teach negro children.
To this whites and blacks should
agree. Let the negro schools be
black and the white schoolswhite.
To mix the one is to threaten the
other. The colored Methodists
claim 10000 negro teachers in the
United States who are sufficient in
number and training to teach their
