which ] now transmit to you:
ut is proposed by progressive citi-
zenS of North Carolina to donate Il site
and building ut Spray. North Carolina,
costing not less than $20,000.00. for
the purpose of establishing a school on
technology. TO this school every
county may send free of tuition. as
many pupils as it has representatives
in the General Assembly and all stu
dents are TO be furnished enough
work. if desired to enable them to de-
fray their expenses. The State on its
part is asked to donate 100000 an
nually for the partial maintenance OF
this school. out of monies in the Treas
ury, not otherwise appropriated, but
no money is to be paid until the site
and buildings given are examined and
approved, and a deed made TO the
board of trustees, for the purpose
above stated. This school is to be sit
uated at Spray. in Rockingham coun-
ty. Already there are located there
eight or ten large factories. and more
are now in the course of erection. The
locality is healthy. and in one of the
best sections of the State. The OBJ
ject of the school is to teach the
science of manufacturing, merchan-
disc exporting and selling cotton and
wool. and all articles made therefrom.
and instruction in such kindred sub
jects as may be practicable. In other
words. to turn out skilled manufac-
turers. Here both theory and prac-
tice will be taught-theory in the
school and practice by actual work in
the mills.
:" 1t is needless for me to urge upon
you the Importance of such a school,
for it will give us skilled labor among
cur own people, making it unnecessary
to send North to get such labor All
