FROM THE STATE CAPITOL.
Country Townships Moving to Tax
Themselves for Educational Inn
Drovement-Fine Situation in Dare.
Where the Government Helps the
People-A. and NJ. College
ing for the Teachers Meeting.
Messenger Bureau,
Raleigh. ". c., June 30, 1903.

Raleigh. y. -, JUNE oV, 1SDo.
At the office of the superintendent
of public instruction it was learned
that in August an entire township,
containing seven public school districts,
will vote on the question of q local
tax for public schools. Late in Au-
gust a township in Northampton coun-
ty in which there are five school dis
tricts.. will vote on the same question.
The officials regard this as most n
~couraging.
state Superintendent Joyner who has
returned from an educational o in
Dare county says public interest in
education there is very gratifying and
that arrangements are being made to
hold an election on the question of
local aid in every township in that
county. superintendent Joyner found
the people in Dare remarkably we'll to
do. The United States spends a great
deal of money there; so much in fact
that it is officially stated to be S21 an
nually to every man, woman and child
in the county, on an average Such a
statement cannot be made regarding
n other county in the state.
The crop report today IS rather more
favorable. Cotton Is quite small and
improves slowly. 1t needs sunshine
and hot nights.
This morning the state board of eX-
aminers of negro normal schools met
| here to consider matters regarding the
seven of these schools; whether there
| should be consolidation or whether the
| schools shall remain as they are. This
| board has no power to do more than
| sugges the power being entirely in the
| state board of education which met
| this afternoon to TAX up this question.
In the capital square a pair of revo-
| Iutlonary cannon are being placed, one
| on each side of the statue of washing
ton. These guns are the gift to the
state from the historic OLD town OF
Edenton. They are being placed +
bases of rough granite, and will be q
picturesque addition to the beautiful
capitol square.
The news which ome as to the i'm.
provement in health of COMMISSIONS
of agriculture Patterson. who is at his
home IN Caldwell county, is very graft
flying.
A great deal of hard work is being
done at the Agricultural and Mechani
cal college here, to get IL
readiness for the summer school TO
teachers, which begins there tomorrow
