THE BAPTIST ORPHANAGE SHOULD
BECOME A WHITE TUSKEEGEE.
President Geo T. Winston Sees Great Future
For the Institution Along Lines OF
Industrial Education.

"The Baptist Orphanage at Thomas
yille," said President Geo. L. Winston
yesterday, on returning from a visit to
that institution, "is destined to become
one of our most useful educational insti-
tutions. It's location is ideal. It's ioun-
dations are already laid with great wis
dom and foresight. Its management is
all that could be desired The only thing
needed now is larger endowment and
expansion of work
"A model dairy should be established
in connection with the farm, and equipped
with testers, separators, churns, butter
workers. etc. In time green houses
should come, with practical work in
Horticulture and horticulture. Orchards.
vineyards, nurseries, truck gardens, all
must be provided at the orphanage.
THE nice beginning already made in
carpentry should grow into instruction
along all lines of woodworking and iron
working. machine shop should be
aimed at. In short, see no reason why
the Thomasville Orphanage cannot be
made a great industrial school for the
training of white boys and girls, SINH
lar to Booker Washington's school for
negroes at Tuskeegee, Alabama Nor IL 3ed
It's INSTRUCTION De COnHneu TO orphans.
Let. others come and by their work help
to support the orphans.
"Bricklaying, painting, plastering,
wagon working, shoe making, upholster.
ing are all profitable trades The or
phanage should teach them all.
1--WE need q score of industrial schools
in North Carolina. Let the orphanage
at Thomasville become one. l am sure
that the Baptist people, South and North,
can and will endow it generally aong
these lines"
President Winston spoke in most en-
thusiastic terms of Mr.. and Mrs. Boone
and their management, and of the great
pleasure he had in the printing office
with Editor Johnson and the boys who
were typesetting. He is anxious to well
come the orphanage into the circle of in
dustrial schools and believes a great
future is ahead of it.

COL A, W SHAFFER WANTS
TO BE RALEIGH'S POSTMASTER.
Thinks That He Will Fit in With the specifi-
cations as Set Forth by President
Roosevelt.

y castor was SHE'D into the ring yes
terday and with it the announcement that
Col. y. w. Shaffer, at one time post
master of Raleigh, would make applica-
tion for his former position here.
Col. Shaffer bases his hopes for APP
pointmcnt upon an order of President
Roosevelt in which the Departments are
asked to observe the laws giving prefer
ence to veterans in appointment and re-
tention, and in which the President
states his desires that wherever the
needs of the service will justify it, and
the laws will permit, preference shall be
given alike in appointment and reteu-
tion to honorably discharged veterans Of
the Civil War, who are fit and we'll quail
fled to perform the duties of the places
which they seek or are filling.
The announcement of Col Shaffers
candidacy is the first which Postmaster
Bailey has to consider. His term does
not expire till in May and it is under
stood That he has the endorsement of
Senator PritChard. With this backing
him Mr. Bailey feels secure. and Col.
Shaffer recognizes that there is no
smooth sailing ahead, but will send in
his application and endorsements any
way.

meets should be overwhelmingly in fa-

be fair either to the candidates or the
people to nominate, if the delegates had
not been elected with the view of possi-

If it shall be the opinion of the commit

Washington, N. c., Feb. 2S--A heavy
wind and rain storm started carly this
morning. 1t reached velocity of be
tween sixty and seventy miles an hour.
The stacks of the Pamlico Iron Works

opinion of majority of the committee
of equal gravity. The charge made by
Mr.. Tillman had been once before in the
Senate specifically denied in parliament
tary language by Mr.. McLaurin. The Of
tense charged against Mr.. McLaurin was
among the most reprehensible Senator
could commit. He could not ignore it or
fail to refute it and hope to be longer
respected as either a man or Senator.
Mr.. McLaurin did not commence the
encounter but only stood in his place at
his desk. where he was speaking and re :
sisted the attack that was made upon
him. In other words his offense was con-
fined to the use of unparlamentary Ian
guage, for which he had unusual provo
cation. Nevertheless, his offense was a
violation of the rules of the Senate of so
serious character that in the opinion
OF the committee it should be condemned
I'm the case of Mr.. Tillman, the rec
ord shows that the alteration was com
menced by the charge he made against
Mr.. McLaurin. Such charge is mex
cusable, except in connection with a reso-
luton to investigate. Mr. Tillman not
sonly made the charge without any avowai
of purpose to investigate but also dis
claiming knowledge of evidence to estab-
lish the offense and this he said after
the charge had been specifically and un-
qualifiedly denied by Mr.. McLaurin.
such charge, under any circum-
stances would be resented by any man
worthy to be a Senator; but made as
it was in this instance, it's offensiveness
was greatly intensified and the result
must have been foreseen by Mr. Tillmau
if he took any thought, as he should. of
the consequence of his statements. This
