education. Ia addition to the large
taxes for public schools, the Leg
islature has made a special ap-
preparation of 5000, 600 for the
common schools, half of this
amount to go to the poorer coun-
ties which have not the four
months achool term provided by
the constitution. The new school
law is pronounced by educators
the best the State has ever had.
1t provides for the better admin
istration of the schools, better
teachers, longer terms and more
efficient supervision. Mitchell
county will this year try for the
first time in North Carolina the
experiment Of compulsory educa-
tion. The Legislature this year
did not pass any law regulating
labor In cotton mills, because all
the leading mills of the State
signed an agreement to abolish
child labor, encourage the educa-
ton Of the children, and in every
way promote the interests of their
employees. Carrying out the pur-
| poses of the constitutional amend
ment, an act was passed providing
for the permanent registration of
all voters who are entitled to vote
under the Ftgrandfather clause"
The Legislature has been in the
main a conservative body. It is
certainly the ablest Legislature
that has been here in a long time.
There has been a good deal Of
protest against the act.
But it must be remembered that a
large amount of money is required
to meet the wants OF our various
charitable and educational institu-
tions, and this money must be
raised in some way. The taxes,
except in rare instances, bear or
all alike. AS the s4Father of the
House, said in his closing speech
the Legislature has fulfilled its
promises. 1t has provided for the
preservation OF the ballot to the

WHAT WAS DONE.
"A Rrief Glance at the Work of
the LEGISLATURE of19O1.

the work OF the Legislature, for
the members themselves hardly
know what bills were passed, aud
what left on the calendar. But
some of it's acts may DE set down.
A law has heen passed providing
for State adoption Of text books,
which ought to result in uniform
text books throughout the State,
and in pupils securing them at a
lower price than heretofore. 1t
should mean better books and
cheaper books. The Agricultural
and Mcdaniel College has bee"
placed under the virtual control OF
the State Board of Agriculture,
under which control it had a pros
porous career in the first years of
its establi- hment. A law has been
passed providing that only farm
ers shall be eligible to the Board
of Agriculture. The power OF the
Commissioner of Agriculture has
been Increased, and that of the di-
rectors diminished. The power of
appointing the directors of most
of the State institutions, which
was taken from the Governor
during the Fusion regime, has
been restored to him. The direc~
tors of the panilentiary, State COLI
leges, institutions for the deaf,
the dumb and The blind, and the
insane asylums are all appointed
by the Governor. The Legislature
felt that this power could be snfee
ly given the present chief execu-
tive, A new oyster law has been
passed that removes most of the
defects of the old law, and pro-
vides for more efficient supervis-
ion of the oyster industry. Those
who are familiar with such subs
jects regard it as the best oyster
law ever enacted. A new libel law
has been passed, and the newspa-
pers of the State, which have so
long labored under an eighteenth
century law, given a. last the JUS
tice they deserved. The new libel
law is as fair to the newspapers as
any in the union, while at the
same time, it is stringent enough
to prevent malicious SANDER and
libel. Numerous new railroads and
large companies have been granted
charters, aud thus industrial de-
velopment of the State aided. Sew
eral trust companies have been
chartered, and will soon begin
business. The provision Of the
Craig act that drove so many lead
ing insurance companies from the
State was repealed, allowing these
companies to return, and adding
some $15, 600 a year to the reve
nue. from that source alone. The
tax on receipts of insurance com
pauies has been Increased to tive
and a half per cent. The various
State institutions, the asylums a
Raleigh, Morganton and Colds
boro, the University, the Stat
Normal School, the Agriculture
and Mechanical College, the Nor
canton School for the deaf AM
dumb, and the Raleigh institution
for the deaf, the dumb and tn
blind have all been provided TO
more literally than any prev1ou
Legislature. Provision has bee
made for the payment of til
debts of these institutions, TO
their Improvement and enlarge
ment. Prohibition laws have bee
passed for a number of countie
and dispensaries have been estab
lished at numerous points, Strin
gent laws have been adopte'

ment safely provided for under
the present public school tax of
the township, we feel that every
citizen should be on tiptoe of in
terest for the day Of election, to
endorse with his vote this pro-
position, that means so much for
the progress of our city along all
avenues of legitimate enterprise
and material development.
What the Graded School, within
the period of it's existence, has
accomplished for G%oldsboro is
an object lesson that every citi-
zen can study with pride and
contemplate with gratitude.
In fact, before the Graded
School was established in our
midst oldsboro was-well-we
dont't like to draw the parallel
between the town in those days
and the proud city Of the pres
ent. Why, even the churches
then, few in number, were the
same small, bare tabernacles that
our forefathers constructed away
back in the ffties: There was no
magnificent and imposing st.
Paul NJ. E, Church; there was no
Primitive Baptist church; there
was no Jewish Synagogue; there
was no Catholic church; there
was no St. John M. E. church;
there was no Holiness church;
shere we're none of the several
UNCONVENTIONAL chapels, rthere
was no Second Baptist church,;
neither had the First Baptist
church nor the Presbyterian
church been enlarged and beau
tilted, and pipe organs were I'M
known to the services save in
the Episcopal church.
But with the advent of the
Graded School among US, dissem-
mating it's benign influence over
all classes Of our citizens, educa>
ton, the handmade of religion,
has widened the thoughts OF
men, has made men more cogniz.
ant Of and responsive to their
duties in all spheres Of living,
aud in consequence, besides
building up in these latter years
the best town in the State, We
have sens out to the universities
| and colleges of the nation talent
| trained in our Graded Schoo
| that has won the highest honors,
and into the world at large young
men and young women who are
making their impress for gooe
upon their generation and fol
the betterment of those who
come after them, and all OF
whom received their early train
ing and bent of character in the
Goldsboro Graded School.
The vote for the proposed
bonds means that Goldsboro in.
tends that her increasing popu
lation shall be given educationa
facilities abreast of the progress
that is characteristic of our time
It means more than this. It mean!
