The gifted associate editor Of the
Richmond Times, Mr.. ". >. Copeland
was with Us for a short time one day
lat week. aud while here sent an IN
teresting and very complimentary let
ter to his paper. For all the pleasant
things said Of our town we beg to make
our best bow, and that bow bends the
lower when we recall what lac so gen
eronsy and gracefully said Of the HER
AID.
Much Of the letter Of Mr.. Copeland
was devoted to an interview with Dr.
Frazer. ex president Of our Normal
school. and much Of what DR.. Fraze:
had 10 say Of our school system was
doleful reading. Here IL a startling
extract taken from il: "The State must
have more and ueiier school houses, or
enlarge her asylums aud prisons" Is
il not true that iu Virginia before the
DAYS of freedom and free schools there
was no need for am asylum for colored
folks in all the State, aud for the good
reason there was not a crezy negro IN
the commonwealth? Aud are there
not now ten negroes 10 jail to one be
fore the war?
We are no enemy Of the free school
system and would be glad t. have
every American citizen, who has
reached the proper age prepared at
least To read the word Of God, but we
coufe-s TO sad disappointment a. to
results following the selfsacriiicing
effort " Virginia made I'm the interest
of the education of our colored fellow
citizens.
If we could but see better morals
better manners and better citizenship
turned ont Of the schools devoted t.
negro education, we would rejoice anc
be glad. but a. the late DR.. Dabney
once said: "When they learn TO spell
dog and eat they fling away the hoe
and when that useful implement Il
discarded no other useful one Is takei
in hand.
1t gives as no pleasure to write this
but it is the truth and need not b.

MISS PARRISH IN RICHMOND.

With Educational Outlook in Nir-
plniau rs her theme, Miss Celestia :.
Parrish made what has been character
lied a. "plain talk" before Rich
mnnd audience on last Saturday even
ing. This gifted woman was gradua-
ted from the State Female Normal
School. and because of this fact We of
Farmville have been watching her iu-
teresting course and marked progress
with real pleasure, and for this reason
we the more deplore the unaccountable
aud utterly indefensible attack she
made upon the integrity Of those haN-
ing IN charge the interests Of her alma
mater. as we'll as against what are
known as denOmInational schools in
Virginia. Without calling names she
boldly declared that on the Board Of
the State Female Normal School, four
Methodists united with four Presbyte-
rians 10 beat a Baptist for the presi-
dency Of that school. Where the dear
lady got her information we are at a
loss to know, and if she was not abs0-
lutey certain Of the truth % the grave
charge II was monstrous to have repeat
ed il. Can Miss Parrish be indeed and
in truth friend Of the higher educa-
ton of her younger sist RS Of the State,
when by lighting denominational fires
at the principal source from which that
education must come, she would burn
out its very heart and dry It's life blood =?

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3 1902.
The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1902-09-26
The South Carolina Primary.

The figures of the recent South Caro-
lima primary election, which include the
vote for governor, lieutenant-governo
secretary of state, attorney general,
comptroller general, adjutant general,
United States senator and members Of
congress, have been slow in coming to
hand, but they show the extent to
which primaries may be said to have
superseded the regular elections in the
Palmetto state.
At the recent primary there were cast
"a, $40 votes, while at the last election
for governor, the total vote OF South
Carolina was 1880 and at the presi-
dental election it was $4,000. The i'm
portance of these figures is further shown
by the fact that there is only one party
in South Carolina holding a primary
election, the democratic party; the
nominations to office by the republicans,
who number, even under the existing
system of disfranchisement, more than
5000, being made by conventions.
That is, $4,000 democrats in South
Carolina take part in primary election,
registering their preferences for various
candidates, but at the official election
only $4,000, or less than half as many,
take part. The primary is, in fact,
more important than the election; and
the result of the primary once known,
he election becomes perfu nctory mat
ter, and the participation of the republi-
cans in it, when they nominate oandi-
dates, is deemed OF small account.
There we're five candidates for govern
or at the primary election, three for
acknowledgements, three for secretary
OF state, two for attorney general, one
for state treasurer, nine for railroad
commission, and six for United States
senator. The congressional candidates
ON the democratic side we're also put in
nomination at the primary, the repre-
sentation OF South Carolina in the fifty-
eighth congress being the same as it is
at present, seven members.
Whatever may be thought OF it else
where, the primary system of nomina-
tons appears 10 be satisfactory in South
Carolina, as is shown by the Increasing
number Of voters who take part in these
elections and the diminishing number
of voters who take part in the official
election in November.

from a point on the west side OF the
cliff to the other side of this promOn-
tory. This, too, is the result OF an in
cessant play Of water, but presents a
pleasing contrast to the tunnel less
than 800 feet away. Its opening is tri-
angular in shape, and rough and jag
ged, not like the clear masonry work
at the opening Of the tunnel.
For distance the cave goes straight
into the solid rock, then 1t takes turn
to the left and comes out on the other
side with an opening much smaller
than the other, leaving height of
about two feet and width of four
1t traverses distance of over so feet,
going almost under the granite shaft
erected to the memory Of Vic Trevitt.
The fine white sands have been washed
in to make floor as soft and pleasant
as one could want. The sun never
penetrates into the cave, but leaves the
sand refreshingly cool and boon to
the hot, weary traveller. Where else
can one have tunnel ride amid cool
breezes and dancing waters, and then
lie down to rest upon the cool sand in
rocky cave, but few feet away?
The island itself in high water is a
bold, ragged rock standing out of the
water, dividing the mighty channel
into two almost equal channels, but at
the low season 1t stretches out In broad
sandbars and its rocky height stands
like the ruins of an ancient castle. The
sand is light and the winds constantly
shift IL from nIaoo Tn nlana 0na dav
the relics of the almost extinct tribes of
red men are seen glistening In the sun,
while the next they are buried in heaps
of sand. On the east end Is drift of
sand, where it has fallen down over the
precipitous side, into which one win
sink; being contrast, yet a reminder
of the snowdrifts Of the cold northern
climes.
On the Oregon shore, high up on the
side of the rough mountain, is a natur-
al curiosity which is associated with
the island in name only. It is Mema-
loose Castle. 1t is an exact likeness to q
ruined castle, and four towers still climb
into the air as though trying to lift their
heads above the background Of green
in mute observance by those who pass
AT the base of these towers are heaps
of broken rock resembling the crumbled
walls of once. .pretentious edifice. The
resemblance is complete, and of all
places where nature has tried to repro
duce the destructible works of man in
bold contrast to her own indestructible
productions, this is the most striking.
What wonders cannot nature build?
