DEGREES FOR RICH MEN.

The comforting of the degree of LII. D.,
on Mr.. Carnegie, has set the world to
thinking about new degree Tor such men
as Mr. Carnegie and Mr.. Rockefeller-men
who have shown marvellous genius in bus
mess and praise worthy liberalty in gifts
to education. 1t is absurd to say that they
are learned doctors of law and yet they
deserve some recognition. LIZ L.
Learned Doctor of Industry-would be
better title. Mr.. L. Clay Kirby, of Nor
folk, has been giving tie matter some
consideration and makes this suggest ION
in communication in the Public Led
ger:
ut is natural and right that rich men
should be honored by the colleges re-
ceiving their contributions, but not in
an incongruous way Why not meet the
emergency and let the colleges confer
new degrees to fit the case. For instance,
the degree of R. M. erich Mani, " r.
M Very Rich Nam, e. r. NJ (EXertmely
Rich Man)? This would be strictly in
keeping with the facts; and the latter de-
gree could with all propriety be conferred
on Mr.. Carnegie, Mr.. Morgan, Mr. Rookie

THE PRODUCTS OF OLD CREEDs

The boast of the South has ever been
that it put homo and honesty above gain
or anything else. 1t has been derided
for standing by "out-worn creeds'' but it
is this very devotion to time-h onored
principles that has given the South it's
highest glory. 1t would, perhaps, have
raised more cotton and had more dollars
in bank if it had put Get money" as
the first and tenth inclusive articles in
its creeds, but its people have preferred
that steady progress that is consistent
with honesty and integrity.
Mr.. John Wilbur jenkins, editor of the
Raleigh Times, was one of the delegates
from North Carolina to the Southern In
dustrial Convention which met in Phila-
delphia last week. He relates this incl
dent that he heard in Philadelphia
lone of the most prominent business
men at the Manufacturers Club told sew
eral of us an instance of what he termed
the high honor of Southerners' that was
gratifying. He said that when the war
broke out Wilmington firm had about
$500 of the money of his firm. The
breaking out of hostilities put an end to
business communication between the sec
tions and he thought his money Was lost.
naturally supposed it would be. After The,
war, was over, he received a check from
the, Wilmington firm enclosing the amount
with large surplus, about $4,000, and
letter from the firm stating that they
had opened an account in bank under
another name, had invested he money
for them, and this was the amount and
the profits derived therefrom. He said
this taught him a lesson of business hon.
esty he had never forgotten, and he had
ever since thought the Southern people
were the very soul of honor. The Will
mington firm was that of Worth and
Worth"
This Incident has never been printed in
North Carolina. The men whose honesty
made so deep an impression upon the
Philadelphian, were so honest in warp
and wool that they never thought that
paying an honest obligation would re-
dound to the credit of the whole South.
Theys were, old-fashioned North Carolina
folks who believed in the Bible, in their
fellow men, and did not believe in let
ting their left hand know what their
right hand did
win the newer creed Of liberal inter-
probation and evolution in religion, or the
so-called broader creed of taxing Of all
for the benefit of the few in politics,
make men of as high a type as the old
creeds and teaching produced?
North Carolina is ten fold richer in hav-
ing produced such men than it would be
in thousands of men who accept the
easy doctrines that threaten the church
and State today.

can well afford to haul freight at the rates
which they have found profitable hereto

A QUESTION OF TASTE,

The Lumber Bridge correspondent Oh
the Robesonian, writing of the recent COM
menccmont orations brings this indict-
ment against them:
1T was our intention to enter protest
against the discreditable way the makers
of SO called literary addresses at the close
of schools have of getting up and deliver
Inc their addresses. 1t has so turned out
that the majority of these orators except
ing. perhaps, preachers and large part
of teacher. deliver unprepared talks that
do themselves little or no credit, and are
very uncomplimentary to the schools who
would honor them by the invitation to
speak. These annual orations are losing
the high stand they once had. 1t is prob
able that in no year of the past has so
many poor talks been made by commence
ment orators as. this year.
There is one man at least who will not
agree with this correspondent-the COM
mencement orator. They all think they
were better this year than ever before,
and the above sweeping statement will
make them regret that the correspondent
is unable to appreciate what is truly great
in oretory
Our observation had been that the COM
mencement crations this year have been
fully up to past occasions, and in some
instances much better. AS in the mat
ter of determining which is the prettiest
woman in an assembly. it is largely a
matter Of taste. At the five chief col
legiate institutions we are quite sure that
the addresses this year were fully up the
average. Those this writer heard were in
some respects an Improvement on pre-
vious years.

Spirit of the Press.
AN OMEN OF HOPE.

Atlanta Constitution.
The presence in Athens this week of
President bowman, of Emory college, and
President Pollock, of Mercer university,
as fraternal delegates to the centennial
exercises of the State University is an
omen of hope for the future and gives
promise of a renaissance in the question
of education.
Emory's action found expression in
resolution offered in the board of trus-
tees by Hon. Howard Palmer, who is
president of the Alumni Society of that
college. 1t was unanimously adopted and
by action of the board President bowman
was sent to Athens to carry the greetings
of Emory to the trustees, faculty and
alumni of the State University.
President Pollock, of Mercer, empha-
sizes his presence at Athens with the
statement that century of honorable and
useful history is unique and inspiring
educational event in the South, and one
that deserves to be celebrated by the
people of the whole State.
How much better fraternal feeling is
than the rivalry which would tear down
will be readily appreciated by every one
having at heart the interest of public ed
ucation. The three institutions named
are working through different agencies
for the same purpose. They differ only in
spocialties which they wish to emphasize,
but each one is doing a complete work,
with which the State could not afford to
part. The hope is that the number of
colleges inspired by special promptings
will increase in number, and that the
rivalry will be one only of good doing.

The death of Ex-Governor Pingree re-
moves one of the most useful public men
who has held official positions in Ameri-
ca during this decade. He was true to
his trust and leaves behind him a record
that will give him more reputation twen-
ty years hence than today. He was not
for the rights of the people. His victory
over the tax-dedging railroads of Michi-
gan after long battle was one of the
principles this generation has seen. 1t
was a victory won by an earnest and
brave fight against greatest odds.

WHO GAVE us RELIGIOUS LIB
ERTY?

1t was to secure religious liberty-So
they said-that the Puritans left Eng
land and settled at Plymouth, and yet
no sooner had they secured this relig-
ous liberty for themselves than they
tried to compel everybody in their col
ony to think exactly as they did.
Some of the bloodiest wars of the
ages have been fought to compel others
to accept religious views in which they
did not believe. Political slavery is in
tolerable to free man. He will think
for himself and permit no man to say
him may" and vote as he pleases. But
religious slavery is ten-fold more in
convictions.
Washington was the greatest man
America has produced because under
his matches leadership and broad
craftsmanship, our political liberties
were won and preserved to us. To
others, with whom he doubles SYM
pathized, we are indebted for relig-
ious liberty.
The most notable commencement adj
dress delivered this year was that by
Hon. Oscar S. Straus. at the celebra-
ton of the centennial Of the University
of Georgia. His subject was: can
Historical Retrospect, or the Develop
ment of Religious Liberty in the United
States We make one extract:
IF we were to single out the men
who from the beginning of our colonial
state until the present time have most
eminently contributed to fostering and
made this country of ours the haven of
refuge from ecclesiastical tyranny and
persecution, who have set an example
r1Gre pussant than army or navy for
freeing the conscience of men from
civil interference, and have leavened
the mass of intolerance wherever the
name of America is known, ! would
mention first the Baptist, Roger Will
liams, who maintained the principle
that the civil powers have no right to
NEEDLE in matters of conscience, and
who founded State with that princi
pie as it's keystone. / would mention
second, the Catholic, Lord Baltimore,
the proprietor of Maryland, to whom
belongs the credit of having establish
ed liberty in matters of worship which
was second only to Rhode Island.
would name, third, the Quaker, Penn,
whose golden motto was: We must
yield the liberties we demand Fourth
on the list is Thmoas Jefferson, that
arch infidel. as he has been termed
by some religious writer's, who over
threw the established church in his
own State, and then, with prophetic
craftsmanship. made it impossible for
any church to establish itself under
our National Constitution, or in any
way to assridge the rights of con-
science
In our National Capitol there ought
to be erected great arch to teach to
every passer-by the illustrious service
rendered by these four men in a day
when to stand for religious liberty
meant persecution and detraction
Upon it ought to be inscribed these
immortal names:

SEDUCTION OR MARRIAGE.
Columbia State.

The State has for longer period than
any other South Carolina Democratic
newspaper maintained the moral right Of
those in this State who believe in Republi-
can principles to organize themselves
into Republican party, and has express
ly advocated, as means of securing po-
litical responsibility and better govern
ment in the State, the formation of de-
cent white Republican party here. But
the McLaurinites prefer, for reasons of
policy, to seduce Democracy rather than
marry Republicanism, and we neither ex-.
pect nor desire that our attitude toward
this program shall be satisfactory to
them,
