BETTER ROADS AND BETTER SCHOOLS

The reader will recall that we made no+o L..
week of the notable exodus from our Woo+ons
counties, and commented on the Statement
one emigrant that poor schools and bad road,
caused him to leave the State. Apropos Of this
matter here is an Asheville dispatch published
since our editorial was written:
Several cars filled with men, reprospn+;rn
various conditions in life, have during the mast
few weeks left Asheville for the West, to saol
homes i'll Oklahoma, Indian Territory, Idaho and
elsewhere, where they hope to find employment
at remunerative wages and grow up with tbo
country. Emissaries have gone among the monn-
tain people, and by painting an inviting word
picture of the opportunities to be found in the
West, have induced many to seek their fortune
in this untried country"
And in this connection, too, the words of Dr.
Walter H.. Page with reference to the 100000
natives of North Carolina now living in other
States)\come f~orcibly to mind:
"When we remember that almost every one of
these emigrants went to States where taxes are
higher and schools are more numerous and better
and where competition is more fierce, and when
we remember that they went away from a State
that is yet sparsely settled and richer in natural
opportunities than the States to which they went,
the failure of these Told educational systems
becomes painfully obvious. x x < Too poor to
maintain schools? The man who says it is the
perpetuator of poverty. It is the doctrine that
has kept US poor. 1t has driven more men and
more wealth from the State and kept more away
than any other political doctrine ever cost u.s."
Better schools and better roads Will do more
than anything else to turn the tide of ~immigra-
ton, develop our resources, and advance the price
III our lands. The emigration from western coun-
ties will not be wholly hurtful to the State if that
farewell criticism of our roads and schools sets
us to the improvement of these two indispensable
agents of civilization and prosperity. And as We
have opportunity, let us show our faith in this
matter by supporting well-considered plans for
road bonds and school taxes.

EQU1PP1NG AGRICULTURAL COLLEGES.

The recent General Assembly of our State was
hardly willing to give permission to the Agricul
tural Department to erect an agricultural build
ing for the A. & M. College at the sole expense Of
the farmers of the State. In the face of this con
dlt1on 1t is interesting to see what other States
are preparing to do for agricultural education,
not out of a special farmers tax, but out of taxes
collected from all the people. This item is from
the Chicago Breeders Gazette:
kansas legislators have been asked to appro-
pirate $327,OOO for the use of the State Agricui
tural College at Manhattan during the next two
years. On the authority of the Topeka Capital
there is "a feeling among the members OF the
Legislature now in session that the college should
have all it asks for"
And this is-a paragraph from an official appeal
signed by the officers of the New York state
Grange, Dairymen's Association, Breeders Assn
citation, Fruit Growers Association, Farmers
Clubs, etc.:
"A bill is now before the Legislature at AIO'E Ky
asking the State to aid agricultural education y
approprlating money to be used in erecting Sr
able buildings for the land Grant College at ="
nell University, where instruction in the serene
and practice of agriculture may be gwen In +.
manner commensurate with the great tarmlns ~
terests of the State. Such buildings are eAiGoJ
slve, and a sum not less than $25O,OOO IS n00~ an+
This appropriation should be made the pre-"
session." Il
A Cornell student in our office last Weef o
that the promoters are not without hope
ting the entire sum asked, $25O,O0O.

Our General News note regarding President
Francis, of the st. Louis Worlds Fair, reminds
us that one of the best known American maya
zine editors said to us last Christmas that there
We a possibility that the Democratic Party would
taAe up Francis as it's Presidential candidate in
1904. So far as we know, no paper had then
mentioned the matter. The Missourian was form
erIy quite active in politics, but has not been
loentlhed with either of the two Democratic fac
tons IN recent years, and the probable success of
the great st. Louis Exposition will put him con-
splcuously before the public next year.

Marshal Wolseley's comments on "The Genius
of Napoleon" make interesting reading. It is very
easy for those of US who do not attain such a
high measure of success 10 attribute the achieve
ments of our s~uperiors to "genius," but it usually
transpires that the "genius" is the kind described
by Carlyle Eve believe) as Gan infinite capacity
for taking pains" In the case of Napoleon, "the
Man of Destiny" for example, it develops that
mo leader of men ever calculated more infinitely
than he did his chances of success or provided
more completely beforehand against every~possi-
bic contingency" Of course, Napoleon's natural
talent did count for much, but he does not form
an exception to the universal rule that "the great
secret of success is to be ready when your oppor-
tunity comes" AS for the unready man, he
usually finds himself in about the predicament
reported by the little boy who came home from his
first day at school, looking somewhat the worse
for wear, and answered his mothers inquiry about
fighting in this wise: "No, mamma, [ didn't
fight, 'cauth [ told the boyth I wuthn't ready to
fight, an when [ got ready they wath a-thettin'

Union. or to his State? AS a practical question:
seeing things as they then were-sweeplng ASIDE
all incontrovertible legal arguments and meta
physical disquisitions-I do not think the answer
admits of doubt. If put in 1888, or, indeed, at
auv time anterior to 1926, the immediate reply OF
nine men out of ten in the Northern States, ana
of ninety-nine out of a hundred in the Southern
States, would have been that, as between the
Union and the State, ultimate allegiance was due
to the State. In studying the history of that pc
riod, we are confronted by a condition, and not a
theory; but, as [ read the record and understand
the real facts of that now forgotten social and
political existence, in case of direct and nsoluble
issue between sovereign State and sovereign ma
ton between 1888 and 1861, every man was not
only free to decide, but had to decide for himself,
and, whichever way he decided, he was right. < x
I assert in it's fundamentals there was no right
or wrong about it; it was an inevitable, ~irrepres-
sibIe confict-the question of sovereignty was to
be decided, and either side could offer good
ground, historical and legal, for any attitude
taken in regard to it. That shield did actually
have a silver as we'll as a golden side"
Commenting on the position taken by Mr..
Adams, Mr.. George Harvey, editor of Harper's
Weekly and the North American Review, two of
the most famous Northern opponents of public
opinion, declares:
"The conclusion that there was little to choose
between the legal argument of the North and the
legal argument of the South will excite few de-
malls from persons less than fifty years old. 1t
was an irrepressible conflict, as Mr.. Seward said.
This generation easily takes that view of the
case"
1t is pleasant to say that good feeling between
the sections has progressed too far for any of
these utterances to be regarded as sensational.
But they nevertheless suggest interesting and
cheering reflections for the men who deplore Sec
tionalism and narrowness wherever found and
hope for a broader national spirit in all parts of
our common country.

PLAY FAR BELOW STANDARD.

The match as q whole vas not UP 70 cham
pionship standard In the first set Larned did
not once get into his game. and Doherty won al
he pleased. This continued into the second set
Doherty taking nine games before Larned scored
one. Then Larneds play began TO develop, and
from that time on it was excellent tennis with
occasional slumSs by Larned. In the third set
Larned played a faster game. but could not ap-
parently keep UP to his top form. At one time
he clearly had Doherty going, but could not hold
his advantage.
Doherty throughout played remarkable ten
MS Of wonderful versatility of stroke and ac-
curacy, and was never once off his feet His
rapid change Of stroke was remarka Bile, and he
was good at every phase Of play, never losing
his head and often making almost impossible
strokes When Larned made his brace in the
third set Doherty was forced to play with more
care. and was kept constantly on the alert
since coming TO this country the Doherty
brothers have won the Davis Interuationa ChaI-
lenge Cup, at Longwood, and at Nahant and
Southampton they carried off the honors. They
successfully defended their holding of the Amer
lcan doubles championship that they won last
year from Ward and Davis, and to-day H l.
Doherty gains the title in the singles. This
clean sweep on the American tennis courts has
demonstrated their superiority over the players
Of this country.
When seen after the match Doherty said that
II was not likely that he and his brother would
return to this country next season, especially if
there was challenge received from this coun-
try for the Davis Cup, which he understood had
practically been promised AS these tourna-
nlents and the English national championship
are played much earlier than those in this coun-
try, il might be possible that they could come
over, but as the case stood he thought he
said, that he and his brother would default their
holding Of American titles and trophies next
season, allowing them 10 revert TO this country.
The rev American champion said that he had
only one regret, and that was that he had been
unable 10 measure his skill with that Of Malcolm
