Gen. Carr at Chatham Confederate Re.
Union.
(Cha than Record. }


For exactly two hours General Carr
held the closest and undivided attention
of his audience, which was the best proof
or their high appreciation of his most in
teresting speech. No synopsis would do
1t justice, and. at it's conclusion, it is
no wonder that SO many begged for a
copy of it, He gave full history of the
companies which Chatham sent into the
Confederate army, and eloquently de-
scribed their exploits. He mentioned by
name and highly complmented the war
record of several Chatham soldiers. par
ticularly Col Jno. r. Lane and Capt
W. l.. London. He told his hearers much
more about their own county than many
of them had ever known. His description
OF North Carolina war record was most
instructive as well as highly entertaining.
He gave official figures and statistics that
should be learned and remembered by all
North Carolnians. In conclusion he
warned his hearers against the increas sing
power of the trusts and pledged his ut
most efforts in helping the people in their
fight against them. He declared that he
had felt the mailed hand of the trusts,
ana that he would rather pillow stump
tail bull on Hickory mountain than to
live in marble palace, on Fifth avenue
in New York, that had been bought with
money made from trust!'
Although Gen. Carr was born and
reared in an adjoining county. this was
his first appearance before a Chatham
audience. but it is earnestly hoped that
1T may not be his last. for no speaker has
ever made more favorable impression
in this county. '@'

The evidence, though circumstantial.
was strong, the motive being robbery.
The fact that Jackson. while a husband

cities and towns, and from them has
spread like a blessed contagion, as each
community perceived it's value. The city
schools OF the Southern States are as
good as any IN the land, for the reason
that they command the services of the
very finest and highest types OF young
Southern womanhood and manhood. The
principle of local taxation for schools as
we'll as for jails and poor houses has been
written in the statute books, and the
commitment of the leaders of public
thought, however family to this principle
Of local taxation for schools is the sur
passing achievement of this period of,
awakening. That the child has right
to be educated. that it is the States duty
to guard and maintain that right, is now
in the South an axiom in public policy.

of North Carolina, is, perhaps, the most
conspicuous example of the Southern

THE South then has travelled far in
educational growth. and deserves high
praise, but after all it has not travelled
very far and it's journey has just begun.
The South is a rural community. Four
fifths of its people live in the country.
This is tremendous obstacle to educa-
tional progress. The first great need Of
this rural community is more money with
which to provide nine months school
for it's children in every school district,
with better-paid and better equipped
teachers. The average length Of the
rural school term in the South does not
much exceed twelve weeks out Of the
year. A nine months school term would
give birth to secondary schools, and ley
in turn would strengthen universities and
colleges. Tho money needed for this
great end must como from home, from
the people who see its influence upon the
lives OF their children, and il is my be-
lief that these people VIII gladly spend
