Spirit of the Press.
Old in influence and Solid Weight.

Ola Ill lHiIueilccs ana oOiIu weight
Wilmington Dispatch.
The anniversary edition of The News
and Observer of Raleigh is before us.
The paper is ten years old and though
comparatively young in years, it is
old in influence and solid weight The
edition, like all other undertakings of
the paper have been, is. highly merit
orious and remarkably we'll gotten up.
1t contains a number of sketches re-
lative to the men and things connected
with the paper since its birth and they
make very interesting reading. The
edition is especially instructive to the
younger newspaper men of the State,
furnishing them valuable information
about the earlier days of Journalism
in North Carolina. Among the num-
Der of excellent contributions is a
most readable article from the pen of
DR.. Il. B. Kingsbury, of Wilmington,
the dean of journalism in North Caro-
lima. No man in. the State is better
qualified to write such a story than
he. The score of cuts of the men who
were great helpers in the upbuili-
ing of the paper and those who are
maintaining the high reputation es-
tabliShed for it are also interesting.
Again, we say that the edition is most
creditable and reflects unboun led
credit on the workers who made It.
The Dispatch congratulates the man.
agement on reaching the ten year
post in such excellent shape and
wishes it's esteemed contemporary
continued prosperity and usefulness.
While we do notFagree with The News
and Observer on all questions, at the
same time we appreciate the great
merit of the paper and it's strict, un-
firing and conscientious work. Con-
gratulations to Editor Daniels and his
corps of assistants.

HON r.. b. GLENN LAST NIGHT.

That was a splendid audience that
greeted Hon. Robert B. Glenn at Met
ropolitan Hall last night composed OF
the flower of the capital city, men and
women All the State. city and coun-
ty officials and other prominent Demo-
Gratis were on the stage. For an hour
and forty minutes the next Governor
held the undivided attention of the
audience, which laughed at his happy
anecdotes and loudly cheered his many
telling points 1t was a vote-winning
speech from start to finish and an en-
thusiasm- speech as well.
There was no note of apology of
doctrines Mr. Glenn unreSerVedly
approved the Democratic platform
from "a to lizard as he put it. He
was particularly effective in showing
the necessity for the Watts law to
protect unpoliced country districts
from stills and saloons, and showed
that the law would work only good.
Upon education he was warm in
praise of the great work that has been
done for public education in North
Carolina and pledged himself to con-
tinue the States educational progress.
He put himself as on re-
cord against the Vardaman impracti-
cable policy of giving the taxes paid
by the whites to white public schools
and orly the tax paid by the negroes
to negro public schools, and said, that
is going too fart is not just" He
then proceeded to make strong and
effective speech for industrial educa-
ton and emphasized the need of put
ting the greatest stress upon the edu-
cation of the hand in educating the
negro. He opposed the old-time pol
icy of dividing the school fund per
capita among the white and negro
children, plan which he said was not
in operation in North Carolina. He
was in hearty sympathy with the pres
ent policy that looks to taking into
living. ETC., in apportioning the school
fund between the two races. That is
done now in every county where the
law and the. regulations are carried
out, and it is nothing but justice alike
to the white and colored population.
Under the old rule that was estab-
lished by the Republicans and pre-
vailed a few years ago, the spectacle
was witnessed of a a nine months term
for the negroes in Raleigh and five
months school for the whites. Demo-
CRATIC legislation provided different
arrangement and if the local author
tiles carry out the law in it's spirit,
there can be no just complaint
Mr.. Glenn is patriotic son of North
Carolina, loves its history, has faith in
its future and will be ambitious to see
it develop all its resources. To that he
will devote every energy of his mind
and body, and exert every influence
with which his great office will clothe
him. Nobody who heard his effective
speech last night doubted that he will
make a glorious campaign and be
elected by a magnificent majority.
Raleigh gave him a great welcome
yesterday. 1t will add to that welcome
when it gives him notable Inaugural
tion in January.

Political Chat.

Among the things that the Republic
cna managers have done this month,
the Washington Post names the fol-
lowing:
Zone of these achievements is the
marshaling of influential financial in
terests for Roosevelt. 1t became plain
not long ago that j. PierpOnt Morgan
had experienced Il change of heart
which was promptly heralded to the
country. Following that comes word
from inside sources that the Rookie
Teller interests are in sympathy with
the Republicans, and that Wall Street
by which is meant politically much
more than the New York Stock Elk
change will very generally fall in line
behind these two rival leaders. There
will be notable exceptions. of course.
The Republicans will not by any means
have such solid and such aggressive
support there as they had in 1896 and
1900. But in spite of the often reiter-
ated assertion that Parker is the can
didate of Wall tSreet he will find com
paratively slight favor among the men
of many millions whose offices are
along that famous thoroughfare."

Senator Martin, of Virginia, is we'll
pleased with the political situation in
New. York. He is not in the habit Of
expressing an opinion until he has
considered it we'll and he is very
careful about making political
prophecies, because he knows what
the contingencies are. But he is con-
fident that as the situation now stands
the Democrats have the advantage in
New York, and unless there should be
some unforeseen change he has no
doubt, however, that it will go for
Parker by Il substantial majority.
Senator Martin says that Judge Park
or, who is thoroughly familiar with
the political affairs of New York. is
himself confident of carrying the
