A TRIO OF

The city of Raleigh has set an eN-
ample of erecting monuments to the
founders of education in North Caro-
lima that cannot be too highly com
mended. 1t has already honored Arch
ibald ID. Murphey, the originator Of
the idea of public schools in this State,
and Calvin II. Wiley, who set the ma
chinery of public schools in motion by
giving their names to two modern,
handsome public buildings.
Yesterday the Raleigh School Com
mittee very appropriately resolved to
name the school building between VIII
mington and Halifax, the BARTLETT
Iancey school, in honor Of that pro-
gressiye statesman who wrote the law
that established the first public
schools in the State. and as President
of the Senate, was largely instrument
tai in securing its passage.
This trio of immoTtals are thus per
manently linked with the progressive
public schools of the States capital,
where they were leaders in the early
educational life of the State.
The farmer and mechanic. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 18??-19??, 1900-12-04
A FACTORY LABOR LAW.

We publish in another column the
views of Mr.. ID. \. Tompkins, of Char
lotte, concerning a Factory Labor
Law. 1t is fortunate that Mr.. TOmp-
kins is interested in this matter. He
is especially qualified to speak on the
subject; and he does speak with his
usual force, directness and c~learness.
He has performed a public duty. y
Labor Law is bound to come sooner
or later. We may as we'll recognize
this necessity and go forward to meet
it.
Mr.. Tompkins has prepared a bill
for the next Legislature, e~mbOdying
his views las follows:
l.. Hours of Labor: 66 hours q
week, with privilege for males over 10
wears Of age to work extra time for
extra pay. All females and males UNI
der Is are forbidden to work over this
limit. Time lost by break-dOwns or
shut-doWns at request of operatives,
not exceeding ) hours in II week,
may be made up afterwards.
.. Quit Notice: Employees shall give
two weeks notice in writing before
quitting. Such notice entities them to
certificate from employer on quitting.
Without such certificate they can not
be employed at other mills during the
year.
5. Child Labor and Schools: No
child under 10 can be Employed; child
rem under - cannot be employed dur
ing schooI-term, nor during August;
compulsory education from 5 to T.
wears is required Of children whose
Earents. brothers or sisters are mill
workers.
4. INDECENT Vampire Parents: \
man doing no labor himself but put
ting his children in a mill and living
off their labor shall be adjudged a
vagrant and punished by imprlson-
ment. Sickness shall exempt a man.
The children's earnings in case of
yagrant father shall be paid to the
mother: or, if no mother, 10 the child
rem.
t. Factory Inspector: \ factory IN
spector shall be appointed by the
Governor; term. . years.: salary. 81
500: clerk. $1,000: also funds for sta
~tionery and travelling expenses. His
duty shall be to see the law enforced.
We hope all the mill owners and all
the mill operatives will read Mr.
Tohpkins' bill, which we print in full
in another column. 1t is worthy OF
very general and very careful consld-
Grafton.

A CONSIDERABLE PREACHER.

North Carolina preachers are more
considerate than Pennsylvania preach
ers. Rev. w. c. Jones, patsor of a
Pennsylvania Congregational church,
charges cDacon Williams with having
slept fifteen out of sixteen Sundays
while he was preaching, and last Sun
day when he caught the deacon nap
ming. while he was preaching, the
minister at once cut short his ser
mon. dismissed his congregation and
sent in his resignation. a North Caro-
lima preacher would be more consider
ate. Some years ago, while Rev. Jesse
II. Page was preaching in Morganton
on a hot summer night, his congrega-
ton noticed hat he lowered his voice
almost to a whisper. Later on in the
by way of explanation, he
said: Il hope the brethren in the
rear of the church will excuse me ii
they cannot hear. cannot talk louder
for fear of waking up the brethren
who are asleep on the front seats

BISHOP MORRISON ON EVANGEL
ISIS.

Sensationalism in the pulpit got a
severe reproof from Bishop Morrison,
who held the Western North Confer
ence last week and will hold the North
Carolina Conference next week. In
his address to the preachers, be said:
You can never bring them about by
any sensational men or sensational meth
eds Of your own. | speak kindly and not
against evangelism or evangelists, but
] am here to say that more harm has
come to our church during the past ten
years Oh account of pulpit buffoonery and
| may say pulpit bullyism than from any
other cause. The abuse of the ministry
to the dedication of the Goddess has been
deeply hurtful. Preachers have run af-
ter this fad too much, and have laughed
