THE EDUCATIONAL CAr1PAiGN.
Rocky Mount Motor

Rocky Mount Motor.
At this time when such a revival
is being had all over the State along
educational lines, it seems that some
suggestions would be in order as to
how the white people of the State
can benefit their children by applying
more of their taxes to the education
of their own children, the colored
children being educated by colored
tax payers and a fair proportion of
white taxes. The thinking tax pay
ers OF this State are becoming i'm
menselv wearied with an educational
campaign that means much higher
taxation and promise of so little
corresponding advantages to white
children. TAXES are about as high
as people are able to pay. They have
no patience with man or set of
men who wish to increase these taxes
unless they get more of the benefits
For thirty years the white tax PAYERS
have lavished their money in the
education of negroes, With every
year, instead CT seeing an improve
ment, they find crime among them
on the increase. They expend money
in his education and this accom-
plished find it an imperative necessi-
ty to pay more taxes for The main
tenance OF criminal courts to pro-
tect the public from his educated
viciousness.
Up to 1900 the negroes paid l.
per cent. of the school tax: they fur
nlshed 33 per cent, of the school pop
ulatiOn. Since 1874 Sc, 600. 900 have
been expended in educating the ne
groes in North Carolina OF this
amount the negroes paid 10 per cent,
the whites 30 per cent. Ii is time to
halt and consider. We owe a duty
to the white children of this State.
1t will be in good taste and Infinitely
more to the liking of the good white
tax burdened people of North Carroll
ma for their Governor and his lieten-
ants in the educational campaign to
use their offices in procuring such
an amendment to the constitution as
will enable taxes paid by white people
10 be used in educating white chill
dren. We voice the sentiments of
those who are bearing the burdens.

SEABOARD TAKEN INTO THE FOLD.
This Is Supposed to Indicate COM
binc Of All the Southern Systems.

New YORK. Aug IS Financial cir
cles are very much interested in a
statement referring to the Seaboard
Air Line which appeared in the Wall
street yournat. 1t says:
I'VE have recei red from a high au-
thority the following statement:
The Sea board Air Line has been
taken into the fold.
I'VE have endeayored to get at the
full meaning of this sentence from
our authority but nothing more than
this statement would be vouchsafcd.
From other sources, however, we
learn that the recent Louisville
Nashville-Southern Railway deal has
made it necessary TO formulate plan
by which the Seaboard Air Line and
Atlantic Coast Line could work in
harmony with the Southern Railway
and Louisville. Just what that plan
is is still withheld from publication.
'.Some time ago it was intimated
by the best authority that Southern
securities company would be formed
to take over practically all the main
ralIfOauS OF the SOutD no lld1lcl
depended good deal upon the decis-
ion as to the legality OF the North
securities company. We understand
that the situation has not changed
materially from this original purpose
and that a statement Of our authOrl-
ty that the Seaboard has been taken
into the fold simply means that the
owners Of this property have in some
way or other signilied their wiling
ness to operate their property in har-
mouy with the general purposes OF
those who control the other large
systems; which would mean Of course
a taking into this new company OF
the Seab0ard Air Line in some way.
1t is well known that the South
ern cannot and does not intend TO
lease the Louisville & Nashville. The
opposition to such a course would be
too great to make the deal a success.
The idea of Southern securities
company would, however, accomplish
every purpose in harmonizing the
roads Of the South"

The Spokesman does not wish TO
pose rs an a!armi>t, but there seems
to be a spirit OF independentism in
some parts of the State that fore BODIES
evil, we fear.
Only yesterday the State was in
the throeS of political uph-aval
whose intensity in some places
reached the Gilman Of Il revolution.
The united forces Of the white men
Of tie State wrought such !: change
in TIE government of North Caruiina
that il was huuNn ami read Of all
over the Nation. With shoulder to
shoulder and elbow to elbow, the
Democratic hosts of North Carolina
under the superb leadership Of Hon.
+. Nj. Simmons, achieved a victory
no less than an amendment to the
State Constitution, which amend
ment gives the white people Of the
state undispnted control Of our gov
ornamental affairs.
Now before that amendment is
fairly tested, for the very people who
secured its passage at an immense
expense and sacrifice of time and
labor TO commence To divide and
split on the spoiIs of office would seem
to a casual observer folly and mex
cusable.
We counsel the white people Of
North Carolina to cooperate in main
tanning and perpetnating the good
government they have succeeded in
establishing. This can be done aud
ought to be done tremendously; ard
if every man will set his face and
force in such a direction in the spirit
Of true patriotism, it will be well. If
any hasty division be made we fear
that unpleasant and direful conse-
quences will follow.

THE CANDIDACY OF THOMAS N.
HILL.
Enfield Ledger.

Enfield Ledger.
Mr.. Thomas n. Hill announces
under date of August 9th that he is
Democratic candidate for the office of
Chief Justice Of the Supreme Court,
subject TO the action of any State con-
yention of Democrats which NAV be
held to nominate a candidate in oppo-
sition to Judge Clark.
At the Democratic State Conven-
ton held in Greensboro Judge Clark
was nominated as the candidate of
the Democratic party for the office of
Chief Justice and only very slight
opposition prevented that nomina-
ton from being unanimous Then
any convention Of sO-called Demo-
Gratis which NAV now meet would be
hump, and not a Democratic con-
vention at all. ii would no more
represent the Democratic party than
the little assemblage of goldites who
nominated Palmer and Buckner, rep
resented it. 1t would be Just such a
side show as that run by Palmer and
Buckner TO defeat the Democratic
nominee.
The only hope of Mr.. Hills elce-
ton is that he would carry enough
Democrats with the solid Republi-
can vote to elect him, and no man is
better aware Of thi. fact than Mr..
Hill himself. Therefore while posing
as Democrat he weuld really be the
Republican nominee.
Mr.. Hills abilities as LAWYER are
undisputed and his character as a
gentleman irreproschable, but Sc
rious objection to him as chief JUS
tice would be that he has for wears
been corporation lawyer, and the
tendency of practice in one line to
warp the mind and render LAWYER
unfit for a judge is too we'll known for
comment.
While ii would have been the
pleasure OF the DEMOCRATS OF the
State TO support Mr.. Hill had he
been nominee of the party. under
existing circumstances it is the duty
of-every Democrat in North Carolina
to vote for Judge Clark. the regular
nominee of the party.

Mrs. Roosevelt is said to be finding
the strenuous life Of the White House
too much for her strength. 1t would not
be surprising. The social pace in
Washington is speeded up to an exact

broken down health. Plain people do
not see the sense in the hurried, COM
pick, and complicated life which So
called society affects, and wonder If a
palmer and simpler way would not be
better for the country and better for
the people themselves. In spite of tho
fact that such reflections are called old
