A NEW INNOVATION,

LONDON, Aug. 9.-Parliament adj
journed during the day, the estimates
being passed by both houses.
The queens speech, after stating that
the relations with the powers of Europe
and America continue friendly, and a
reference to the establishment of the
commonwealth Of Australia, refers to
the war in South Africa, (which has
placed in tho strongest light the hero
ism and high military qualities of the
troops brought together under my BAN
ner from this country, from Canada
Australia and my South African pos
sessions"
An innovation in the queens speech
which caused some comment was the
mentioning Of America specifically.
The speeches from the throne usually
refer to the powers generally, Or to the
European powers.

AMONG THE MUTES
Closing Exercises at School
at Morganton.
Interesting Program EAceIIentIy Rendered. Ad-

Smith and M. A. Holt.

Special to the News & Observer
Morganton, n. c., June 6.-The
North Carolina school for the Deaf
and Dumb closed its annual session
yesterday. The occasion was doubly
interesting. The Junior Order of
United American Mechanics of North
Carolina, State Council. presented to
the school a handsome flag and Bible.
The presentation speeches were made
by Rev. c. A. G. Thomas, of Thomas
vile, and Il. p. Smith, of Raleigh.
The speech of acceptance on behalf
of the school was made by Prof. NJ. H.
Holt, of The Board of Directors. All
the speeches were happily conceived
and greeted with applause. Then
the flag was raised to the top of the
elegant school building to the music
of the Star Spangled Banner, and as
the western breezes stretched it out
in all its beauty, mighty cheer went
up from a thousand throats.
At night, in the chapel, the students
gave a delightful exhibition to an i'm
mense audience.
The exercises in speech, signs, hoop
drills, and Indian camp drills, cake
walks etc, as we'll as ESSAYS read
by oral students, were all of highest
order of excellence and reflected credit
upon the noble and tireless teach
ers in this school.
The State should know more of the
great work superintendent Goodwin
and his splendid corps of teachers are
doing at Morganton. 1t is the lead
ing school of the kind in the South.
both in point of equipment and eff
cheney.
Altogether the year has been the
best since the school has been estab-
lished and the management is looking
forward to greater things next year.
The industrial departments, print
ing, shoe-making- carpenting, and
general wood work would do credit
to chronological schools anywhere.

OldIS0NlllC l<ciAuluul n
The public will recall that last winter
Senator Pritchard introduced in the SEM
ate resolution in regard to the constitu
tional amendment now before the people
of North Carolina, and that he and Sena-
tor Butler made long winded campaign
speeches on the same for home consump-
tion which they got carried through the
mails free by having them printed in
the Congressional Record. The Senate
committee on privileges and elections,
which considered the Pritchard resolution
few days ago, decided, by a party vote,
to recommend the adoption of a substitute
direction the committee to inveStiga tie
whether restrictions of the suffrage
which exclude majority of the colored
vote are antagonistic to the Constitu
ton of the nted States. 1t is probable
that this resolution will be agreed TO by
the Senate and an investigation under
taken.
The wholeb usiness is purely for cam
paign purposes and is designed to help
Pritchard and Butler in their campaign
against the amendment in this State. SO
far as the Landmark is concerned, it
welcomes the investigation. If there is

DINA will resent promptly and effectively,
unless they belle their past record it is
outside interference with their affairs.
We hope a Senate committee. for in
stance, will come to North Carolina to do
some investiga ting before the August
election. While we have no sort of doubt
now that the amendment will be carried
and the Democratic ticket elected. such
action as that suggested would remove
any possibility of doubt.

A CONFEDERATE MONUMENT.

James NJ Johnson, NJ. b. Britt and
William Howard. These gentlemen, in
their report just issued, make the fol-

make it a success and have the honor of
