v~erStleS Were supported almost entirely
by student fees. Up to the civil war
the University Of North Carolina had
accumulated from this source over SlOO,-

world Il college or university that is self
supporting. Their chief sources of sup
port are private philanthropy and pub

sources was public taxation; a power

But a new era had come. the era of
popular education both in lower schools
and III higher. 1t was we'll for this era
to be heralded by the opening of 4 new

1t Is worthy Of note that the eStab-
ishmen Of this right and through it the
establishment and maintenance Of this
University was due, though Indirectly.
to the wisdom and beneticence Of the

Smitten down was now strongest in rails

North Carolina Of the new principle of
popular education supported by popular
taxation. The principle once established
was bound to grow. New necessities
Were met by larger grants. State soon
ceased to be 4 theory and became an ac-
compllShed fact. The people learned
that the new University, the States

the lesson was slow to learn, and its
teaching was attended with amazing
