In view or the coming 6peclal
school election, the school board deem
it proper to make q statement in regard
to the needs of the school district. By
reference to the report of the clerk, it
will be seen that the total seating ca
pacity of the schools Gncluding the
brick church'O is 445, while the total
number of pupils enrolled was 479,
many having been refused admission at
the last term for want of room, and the
report Of the assessor shows that there
are 7C6 pupils of school age in the dis
trict. Under these circumstances it is
self-evident that we must either have
more school room. as q large number of
pupils will be obliged to stay ont for
want of sufficient school room. With
this knowledge before the board, they
have deemed it their duty to present
the question of issuing 81, 600 bonds to
the electors of the district. The board
has not thought it wise to spend the
money before it was voted, but if the
bonds should be authorized, it is their
intention to use the money derived
therefrom in building two two-roomed
school houses in convenient locations,
and after appropriating such part of it
as shall be necessary for that purpose,
to use the remainder, if any, in repair
ing the old school house which is well
known, by any who have given il any
attention, to be sadly in need Of repairs
Deeming the foregoing statement suf.
ficient at this time the board leaves the
responsibility in the hands of the
voters of the district.
BY the board. GEO. L. HUBBARD,
Clerk.

A comparison of Gen Kelly-Keony's
dispatch With the maps available shows
apparently that the British line of
communications. but by the Beers,
has been restored by the movement Of
troops from the north towards Boa-
iuespruit, to reach which place they
would have to pass through Roodeval
il they followed the railroad The
fact that Gen Kclly.Keuuy says Gen
Knox will move out from KrooDstad to

demonstrate that the Beers are retreat

SOME GOOD ADVICE.
Prof James B. Dudley, president

Prof James B. Dudley, president
of the co!ored Agricultural and Me-
chanical College at Greensboro,
recently delivered an address on the
race problem before the Bethel Lit
erary Society in Washington. He
viewed it from the standpoint Of q
colored mar, and took decidedly
sensible view of it, too He attribu
ted the friction between the races
mainly to politics and the aspirations
Of the negroes TO live by politics,
and be contended that when the
negroes as racc give less attention
to politics ard more to business, to
the accumulating of money aud prop
erty, then would come the lessening
of the friction and the betterment OF
the race
Substantially his views are in &C
cord with those of Brooker T Wash
ipgton and other thoughtful negroes,
who teach that the way to race ele.
vation and race influence IS through
the paths of industrial endesvor and
progress Thrift and industry are
the keys to success, and the accumu.
lation of property by which they will
become identified with the commuDi-
ties in which they live, interested in
good government and factors 10 pro
noting it.
As an object leson he cited the
cotton mill at Concord, projected by
a colored man, built largely if not
altogether with capital furnished by
colored people, and to be operated by
colored people
There is more in that for them than
in all the politics they could dabble
in for decade, for it blaz5s the way
TO success and shows what may be
done by we'll directed effort and con
cert of action. 1t will take time, of
course, and good deal Of missionary
work to accomplish what Prof Dudley
advises, but be is on the right line
when he strives to divert the atten-
ton of his people from politics to
industrial pursuits, and to the accu-
mutation of money and property.
When they get this fastened in their
heads a long stride will have been
taken in the right direction vii.
