A FACTORY LABOR Law.

We publish in another column the
views of Mr.. ID. A. Tompkins, of Char
lotte, concerning a Factory Labor
Law. 1t is fortunate that Mr.. Temp
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 c1eaIness.
He has performed a public duty. A
Labor Law is bound to come sooner
or later. We may as well recognize
this necessity and go forward to meet
it.
Mr.. Tompkins has prepared a bill
for the next Legislature, embodying
his views ,as follows:
l. Hours of Labor: &C hours a
week, with privilege for males over Is
years of age to work extra time for
extra pay. All females and males I'M
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 one week,
may be made up afterwards.
2. 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.
3. Child Labor and Schools: No
child under 10 can be employed; child
rem under IL cannot be employed dur
ing school-terrn, nor during August;
compulsory education from 8 to II
years is required of children whose
parents, brothers or sisters are mill
workers.
A. INDECENT Vampire Parents: A
man doing no labor himself but put
ting his children in mill and living
off their labor shall be adiudged a
vagrant and punished by imprison-
ment. Sickness shall exempt a man.
The children's earnings in case of
vagrant father shall be paid to the
mother; or, if no mother to the child
rem.
4. Factory Inspector: A factory in
spector shall be appointed by the
Governor; term, 2 years: salary, ST.
500: clerk, 81 900; 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.:
Tompkins' bill. which we print in full
in another column. 1t is worthy of
very general and very careful consid-

A CONSIDERABLY PREACHER,

North Carolina preachers are more
considerate than Pennsylvania preach
ers. Rev. W. G. Jones. patsor of a
Pennsylvania Congregational church,
charges eDacon Williams with having
slept fifteen out of sixteen Sundays
while he was preaching, and last Sun
dav 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 Kew. Jesse
Ii. Page was preaching in Morganton
on a hot summer night, his congrega-
ton noticed that he lowered his voice
almost to whisper. Later on in the
sermon, by way of explanation, he
said Il hope the brethren in the
rear of the church will excuse me if
they cannot hear. cannot talk louder
for fear of waking up the brethren
who are asleep on the front seats"

STATE Or COUNTY ADOPTION

When the Fusion Legislature met in
1895, one of the first of the blunders
it committed was to repeal the law
which imposed on the State Board of
Education the duty of selecting the
books to be used in the public schools.
That duty was then conferred upon
the Board of Education in each OF the
ninety-siX counties in the State. The
result was that instead of a uniform
selection, each county selected its own
books, after a troublesome and some
times a scandalous contest.
In 1895 this paper opposed the bill
for county adoption which the Fus-
ionists adopted. We have always fav-
ored State adoption by the legally con-
stituted State Board of Education, and
we hope that the Legislature will re-
peal the present law and re-enact the
law that worked well in this State for
twenty years previous to the accession
of the Fusionists to power.
Closely connected with the pledge of
better schools is the question of school
books-the quality and the price. The
best men to determine that matter
are the men who have been charged
by the voters of the State with the
conduct of the State administration
They are men of character and integ-
rity and can be trusted to make wise
selections.

SCHOOL BOOKS.
Rockingham Anglo Saxon.

Rockingham Anglo Saxon.
The Biblical Recorder strikes the right
note this week when it advocates cheaper
school books. or rather school books at a
smaller price, and uniform State adoption
instead of the present system of each
county selecting for itself he books to be
used in public schools. 1t is a fact that
the same books used in our public schools
are sold by the same companies in other
States at a little more than half what
they charge us in North Carolina, while
under the system of county adoption a
family moving from one county to an
other may carry full set of books wCth
them and find when they get there that
an entirely different set is required.
This is one of the perplexing problems
that the Legislature will have to deal
with. The late Mr.. H. G. Wall. our rep
resentative in the last Legislature, in
troduced a bill then providing for uniform
State adoption, but that body deemed it
wise to leave this perpleXing question
alone till the all-abSorbing measure which
engaged their attention was finally rati-
fed But there can. be no excuse for
longer delay in the matter. The present
bunglirg arrangement, IS severe tax
upon the poor people who are sending
their children to SCHOOL,
The Legislature should create board
removed as far as possible from the in
fluence of paid philanthrcpists, with in
structions to advertise for bids from the
book companies on books to be adopted for
the whole State for long term of years
and then select set of books with due
regard to the quality and to the price.

STATE ADOPTION OF SCHOOL BOOKS.
Biblical Recorder.

STATE ADOPTION OF SCHOOL BOOKS.
Biblical Recorder
North Cardinals school book bill is of
serious concern. Three hundred thous-
and children daily attending our free
schools must purchase, we estimate, at
least $50 900 worth of books a year, and
four times that amount in taking the reg
ular free school course of four years This
comes out of the pockets of people not a
few who have no nickels and dimes to
spare. We are not the poorest people in
the world; but there are few peoples in
the United States who have less ready
money to spend There are none who can
afford to pay more for books than we.
There are none who should endeavor 10
get their books at a flower rate than we.
This the reader will readily agree to.
What then? Does he know that there are
many States in which the same or as good
books are sold for less than the North
Carolina children pay? Does he know
that the present system of county adop-
ton is one Of the most expensive plans
that are in use? Does he not see that
county adoption involves the necessity of
local agents, local attorneys and local in
fluences-and does he not know that
these things each go for a price, and
that though a book company may pay
directly for them, the school boy that
buys the book must pay at the last? We
think an examination of an average North
Carolina list will show that the usual four
years course in a free school will require
the expenditure of between eight and nine
dollars for books. There are States in
which the same set of books may be
purchased for between five and six dol
lars. But in the latter they have State
adoption. We are in favor of State adop-
tion as opposed to county adoption for this
reason, and for another even more
weighty. 1t stands 10 reason that CEN
trail board, appointed with due regard TO
their work, will be more wisely governed
in its selection of books than nearly a
hundred county boards, some of which
may be excellent and some mere aggre-
cations of politicians. When books are
to be adopted, temptations are going to
be offered. The average county board
man is not likely to be too we'll acquainted
with school books, and he will necessarily
be governed in degree by prejudice or
some other untoward influence. But a
State board, consisting of men of emf
nence, of men experienced in educational
affairs, of men who know books will
have convictions upon the merits of the
books offered to guide them, and though
liable to influences, their sense of great
responsibility will reinforce their consci-
ences We should like to see such a board
composed of the State Superintendent of
Public instruction and four professors in
our colleges. Of course a change will
bring on book-fght; but if we will i'm
thereby. we can stand the fight. Besides,
the present contracts expire next June
at any rate, and a fight then is sure.
