NOT MANY ILLITERATEs IN WAKE.
Only 1-2 Percent of Children of School Ago
Are Illiterate.

Mr.. w. q. Clements, superintendent
| of schols for Wake county, has just
published his report for the past
! school year. In addition to the mat
| ter published in this paper some time
| ago, it includes information not MS
ually reported upon. Speaking of the
general results of the years work by
| the schools, he says:
when it is taken into consideration
that the enrolment in the county,
outside of Raleigh township, was 747
more than it was last year, and that
the average term in the county was
90 days. and the school fund has to
it's credit, left over from the scholas-
tic year. $S,763.13, which, if it had
been used, would have increased the
term about ten days, who will say that
in educational life the future of the
county is not Frightening?
1.-THE old-time prejudice against pub
lie education has given way year by
year until now there is no force of
opposition able to hold in check the
progress that is being made. Other
educational forces are standing side
by side with the public schools. For
the white race in Wake county, there
are eight academies, making terms
of from eight to nine months. There
are two male and three female col
leges, with faculties equal to the best.
For the colored race there are three
colleges doing good work.
IF you eliminate from the census
roll of the white race in the county
outside of Raleigh township those who
have completed their education, and
those who are in colleges and other
schools, you will find, from the best
estimation that can be made, only
about per cent of the children whose
educational wants are not being cared
for; and outside of Raleigh township,
you will find Of the white race, be-
i tween the ages of s and 21 years, ac-
cording to the best estimate, only
about per cent who can not read
and write. Thus it may be seen that
| the educational outlook in the county
| is indicative of a bright future"
Mr.. Clements says that the super
intendents should be compelled to re-
| port upon the question::
How many children are there in the
district between the age of and p
who have never been enrolled in any
school?

GRAND RALLY AT PILOT MILL.
Mclean and Pou Spoke Last Night to Large
Crowd

There was rally of the White Su-
premacy club at Pilot mills last night,
and Messrs. Dan Hugh Mclean and James
H. Pou made telling speeches.
If there was an suspicion of fusionism
cut in our northern suburbs prior to this
meeting, it was dispelled by these match
less speakers. 1t was the first oppCr-
tunity a Wake county audience had of
hearing the brilliant and forcible speaker
from Harnett during the campaign, and
every man and woman present was
thrilled with the power and eloquence of
this gifted son of our Sister county. He
spoke for an hour and spoke as few men
can speak, for he has but few equals as
an exponent of the great issue of White
Supremacy.
Mr.. Jas. H. Pou followed with one of
his telling thirty minutes speeches, in
which he shot, as he always shoots,
straight from the shoulder, and gave the
large crowd some solid facts to ponder
over.
There was good attendance and every
body was charmed. The speakers were
introduced by Mr. f. B. Arendell.

ROBBED THE GRAVE.

startling incident, of which Mr.. John
oliver, of Philadelphia, was the subject,
is narrated by him as follows: Il was
in a most dreadful condition. My skin
was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue
coated pain continually in back and sides,
no appetite-gradually growing weaker
day by day. Three physicians had given
me up. Fortunately, friend advised try
ing Electric Bitters,' and to my great
Joy and surprise, the first bottle made
a decided Improvement, | continued their

Without An EQUAL.

l consider Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy
is without an equal. Ten years ago it
cured me of cancer on my face, pro-
nounced so by three physicians, also of
rheumatism, and every spring previous
to that l was covered with boils that
would last for months. Since that time
l have never had the appearance of one.
So many have been to me for infOrma-
ton that l have concluded to write you
a second time, acknowledging my graft
tude TO you and Almighty God for max
ing you the instrument in His hands of
doing SO much, and let the public know
of my wonderful cure.
Your Remedy and Wash do all they
claim to do and even more. Should they
ever return, | would feel safe of recov-
cry with your medicine and Gods help.
l have seen numbers of cases cured right
here at home with your Remedy, and all
are ready to bless you and say there is
none SO worthy of universal patronage as
this noble woman and her valuable med
icine. Only give it a trial. 1t will speak
for itself l am still using all my influ-
ence for you.
Respectfully yours,

CAPT JOHN SMITH FOR SHERIFF.
A Great Crowd Hear the Democratic County
Candidates at Apex.

At last the Fusicnists have got man
who is willing to run on their ring-tail
ticket for sheriff of Wake county
-Four men were offered the place and
declined without thanks, then it was UP
TO Capt john Smith.
Now the CAPTAIN was already on the
ticket-chasing the position of county
commissioner-but the office Of Sleri1
seemed a better one, so he said he'd take
it, if he could get it.
And this is why the Captain has been
moved up a few pegs on the ticket.
OF course, in reality, it makes no diff
ference, for he can't be elected, no mat
ter what office he runs for on the Fusion
ticket, and in this respect they are all
tarred with the same ticket. They have
no confidence in their own cause; bets CT
10 to l find no takers, and majorities OF
four figures are being predicted for the
Democratic ticket in this county.
No announcement has yet been made
as to who will take Smiths place on the
ticket as county commissioner Possibly
they are content not to try to find any
body after their experience with the
nomination for sheriff
The Democratic candidates spoke at
Morrisville Thursday night and had 15O
people to hear them.
The Fusion candidates spoke there yes
terday ard bad 20 negroes, white Flu
sionists and 10 Democrats as their au-
dience. Only two candidates were pres
ent-Hill King and Haywood knight.
At Apex yesterday the largest crowd
that occnf11h1Qd fhQrQ hnQP q
speaking by county candidates was pres
ent. 1t numbered some 600 or 700 people
and much good work for the Amendment
was done
Wake county is all right.

AN EPIDEMIC OF D1ARRHoEA.

Mr.. A. Sanders, writing from Cocoanut
Grove, Fla, says there has been quite an
epidemic of diarrhaea there. He had a
severe attack and was cured by four

Diarrhoea Remedy. He says he also
recommended it to others and they say it
is the best medicine they ever used. For
sale everywhere. Bobbitt- Wynne Drug
