cipal food Of the inhabitants, con-
sisted of a larger grain, which had de-
cidedly better flavor. So fine it was,
in fact, that one grain nicely boiled
and served was enough to provide a
dinner Of sufficient size to satisfy the
hunger of a full-grown man or two
children; while the merit Of the people
was such that never had they to weary
themselves nigh to death by toiling
beneath the scorching sun to gather
the rice. When it was ripe and ready
for picking, it simply fell gently down
from the stalk on which it grew, rolled
steadily towards the village, and snug
ly ensconced itself in the granaries
that were waiting to receive it, taking
care as it did so that no man might
think himself more favored than an
other by becoming the recipient of one
scrap more than was necessary for the
consumption of himself and his fam
fly.
And this delightful way Of living
would have gone on existing, aye,
unto this very day, had not one greedy
person, through a desire to crafty her
own avidity, spollt everything by her
covetous wish to secure more than her
fair share of these privileges.
In one of the villages that profted
greatly by the thoughtful behavior Of
the rice, there dwelt, in a small hut, a
widow woman called Chum Paw and
her two daughters, both of whom were
renowned for their common sense and
loyeliness.
One evening, as the three Of them
stood at the Threshold of their door,
and watched the large, well-ripened
grain come trundling along the street
and hop into the granary that belonged
TO them, the eyes of the widow became
small and cunning-looking, and she
tightly pursed her lips together as she
considered the idea that had just en-
tered into her crafty brain.
"Alack! alackw she cried, beating
her hands together in despair. "How l
grieye when l look upon that small
granary that belongs to u.s."
"What is amiss with it?" demanded
the eldest daughter. "It is clean, and
as well built as those of our neighbors
better, indeed, than some"
THAT may be, responded her mother
"But how fortunate might we consider
ourselves If we possessed building
double the size"
But the two girls shook their heads,
"We have more than enough now"
they said. LET us be content"

ALWAYS THAT WAY.

Republican government in North Caro-
lima is always expensive and incompetent
when it is not, as it usually is, also COR
rupt. In 1894. when with an allied party
they asked a return to power, Republicans
said that they would do better than they
did in 1850 because then it was the
et-baggers who were responsible for
the malodorona government. But the peo-
pie found the same corruption and rotten
ness, if on smaller scale that cursed the
State during Reconstruction. The same
has been true in the administration OF
county affairs with now and then an ex-
ception. For eight years Chatham has
been under the full control of the Re-
publicans who called themselves Fusion
lists. Here is the record as given by the
Chatham Record:
when our Democratic commissioners
take charge on the first Monday in De-
,cember they will find the county's finances
in a most deplorable condition. This is
the sad result of Fusion misrule, which
has blighted everything it has touched
everywhere in this State. When they took
charge of our county there was little or
no floating indebt edness, and now there
are about $4,000 worth of county or
ders unpaid! Such is Fusion reform in
chatham"

THE CLEAR CUT ISSUE.

Between the election of Mckinley In
1896 and the defeat of the Republican
party in North Carolina in 1898, about
one thousand negroes were put in office
in this State, by the town. city, town
ship, county State and Federal admin
istrations. Perhaps fifty of the number
held office under Mckinley. One by one
the heads of the negro Federal officials
have been cut off until today there is
only one negro holding a Presidential
office in the whole State-Sam Wick, post
master at Wilson. He is the best negro
in North Carolina and a lifelong Re-
publican. The only objection from any
source to his disappointment is his color
If all negroes ought to be removed from
office, Sam Wick ought to go. But if it
is the policy of the administration not
to kick out all negroes simply because
they are negroes. Sam Wick will be re-
appointed
The question of the Wilson postmaster
ship will settle the policy of the ad-
ministration, and therefore action in
that case is looked forward to with the
deepest interest. It is clear cut issue
of kicking out all the negroes or making
a Lily White Republican party. 1t, there
fore, becomes a case of national interest.
Mr.. Bingham was removed from office in
Alabama because he was opposed to ne
gro delegates in the Republican State
Convention, of Alabama. and for no othei
reason. If Sam Wick is turned out it
will be equivalent to saying: There is
one rule for Alabama and another for
North Carolina" If he is kept in the
people will be notified that the Lily
Whites have been given killing frost In
both States and in all the South.

DIR, BUTTRICK AND THE WORK
OF THE GENERAL EDUCA-
TON BOARD.

The address of DR.. Buttrick. the exc
cutive of the General Education Board,
before the Educational Conference yes
terday morning, was deserving of the
genuine applause with which it was re-
ceived. 1t was delivered in conversa-
tional tones, in clear-cut sentences, in
directness and power, and there was a
sincerity and genuineness and breadth
about it that showed the speaker to be
worthy of the important position he
holds. DR.. Buttrick speaks for men of
large wealth who are deeply interested
in educational progress of the South.
He has been selected by them because of
his ability, great common sense and
executive capacity to administer the
fund that will amount to millions of dol
lars. They are ready to invest their dol
lars wherever it will show results. They
have no plans except those in harmony
with the policies adopted by the regular
ly constituted authorities of the South
ern States. Recognizing the great need
of better schools in the rural districts Of
the South the General Education Board
is putting its money into those districts
that show Willingness to help them
selves. The rapid growth of the local tax
idea in Guilford county is largely due to
the impetus given by the donation Of
$4,000 by the citizens of Greensboro, and
the $4,000 given by the Education Board
to supplement the money raised by local
tax in the rural districts of the county.
Dr. Buttrick's explanation of the aims
and purposes of his associates showed
that they had no spirit except one of
helpfulness. The money they invest is
and their spirit is as noble as the
action of the late George Peabody. The
people of North Carolina, determined to
educate all the children of the State,
rejoice to have the cooperation OF men
of great wealth who are ready to use
it to advance the cause of public edu-
Inc SldIe Oh lLSelI can give only
four months school in the poorer coun-
ties With the aid of the General Edu-
cation Board it can soon build good
school houses everywhere, provide bet
ter equipment, and make the public
schools efficient.
DR.. Buttrick is built on the broad
guage plan and his heart is in his work
He is in close touch and in perfect ac-
cord with State Superintendent Joyner,
the County superintendent, and other
educational leaders of the State who are
behind our educational revival. The
people of Raleigh were glad to entertain
him and will be always glad to welcome
him to North Carolina. He is as charm
ing in the social life as he is wise and
resourceful in promoting public educa-
ton. ENNSfssB5F
