SEPARATE YOUTHFUL CRIMI
NAILS.

There is authority in law for the d.
rectors of the States Prison to sepa-
rate the youthful criminals from the
hardened ones. and it should be done,
thus doing in part what the proposed
reformatory would do. This week,
Deputy Sheriff Williams, of Greene
county, has brought to the peniten-
tiary a colored boy about thirteen
years old, sentenced to the peniten-
tiary for ten years.
That is a case calling for investiga-
ton and illustrates the need of a sepa-
ration of the young prisoners from
the adult criminals. 1t may be, after
the boy has been punished a short
time, if he shows that he is not who'll
~ bad, the Governor may, under the
new law, issue a conditional pardon.
The best thing for bad boys, when
possible, is to get them on the farm of
some good man who will give them a
chance to reform while working hard
and being we'll treated. Such a place
for a bad boy, if he has any desire to
reform, is worth all the reformatories
in the world.

GOOD FOR FRANKLIN.
No County is Making Greater Progress
in Public Education.
(Louisburg imes.l


Some evidence of the progress Of
Franklin county along educational
lines is found in the fact that the
Legislature just adjourned passed acts
looking to the establishment OF grad
ed schools in Louisburg, Frankhnton
and Youngsyille. The progress made
by our rural communities during the
past few years has been frequently
remarked by those who have taken
notice. The establishment and main
tenance of good academies connection
with the public school system at
lngleside, Pilot, Bunns, Dickens.
Mapleville, Cedar Rock, Laurel, Sandy
Creek, Woods, and other place has
been a source of great qualification.
The remarkable feature has been that
our towns should have allowed them
selves to be SO badly beaten by the
rural districts. 1t seems to have had
its effect however since every town
In the county has applied for graded
school act.
The elections in Louisburg and
Franklinton were ordered for the
same date, Tuesday, April 18th. We
are informed that the election for
Monday in May. The establishment
OF these schools will mean much TO
the towns and also to the whole coun-
ty. Just as the success of our rural
schools has inspired the towns. we
can now hope and expect that these
additional school facilities will be an
inspiration to every community i'm the
good old county of Franklin.

BATES AT BENToNvILLE.
The senator Had Six Horses Killed
Under Him in Battle.

Many Confederate soldiers knew the
late Senator Bate. He was school
mate of General w. r. Cox at law
school He visited Raleigh after the
battle of Bentonsville. No man in
the War Between the States had q
more honorable career. Writing OF
Senator Bates war record, the Wash
ington Star says:
General Bate had war record that
placed him in the vanguard of the il
lustrious men who fought the battles
of the Confederacy. He rose to the
rank of major general by sheer worth
when there was q preference shown
generally to graduates of West Point
for the highest places in the army.
What Lamar was to Mississippi
John C. Breckenridge to Kentucky or
Ben Hill to Georgia, William B. Bate
was to the State Of Tennessee, or even
more, as no one of those men served
their people so long as he. The fight
ers of either army who rose to such
distinction as did General Bate from
the ranks can be named on the fin
gers of one hand. 1t was an easy mat
ter for the West Pointer to rise, but
the man who came from the ranks
had to doubly prove his merit at each
step of progress. General Bragg once
asked during his campaign:
Who is that driving the enemy
on our left?'
Bate, was the reply.
i knew it., smiled General Bragg,
that rascal is never happy unless he
is tearing up the Yankees in some
quarter No wonder he is half the
time on crutches.
General Bate was a man of the
greatest moral worth. Throughout a
long life of activity no breath of sus-
picion was ever known in reflection
on his personal integrity.
General Bate enlisted in the Con-
federate army the day after the at
tack on Fort Sumter. Among other
battles he served with great bravery
and distinction in the battle of Shi-
lob. in which he was severely, at the
time thought to be mortally wound
ed; the battle of Chickamauga, where
he had three horses killed under him
and lost 81 per cent of his men while
driving the Federal soldiers from their
positions; at Missionary Ridge where
he held the line to the right of
Bragg's headquarters, he was the last
ito leave the field; the hundred days
battle in Georgia, Murfreesboro.
Franklin, Nashville and finally Ben
tonVille, North Carolina. He was un-
der the necessity of carrying crutches
the whole time from his partial reeov-
cry after Shiloh until the close of the
war. He was three times severely
wounded, and had six horses killed
under him In battle"

No Trace of the Missing Son of Sena-
to- Beasley Yet Found.

Elizabeth City, N. c.. March TO-
No trace of Senator Beasley's son has
yet been found and no clue as to his
whereabouts has developed. The
belief in Currituck is that he was
really Kidnapped and carried to some
distant place, although no tangible
evidence has been produced to verify
it. With his disappearance is con-
nected the stranger who drove
through that place the same day the
boy was missed, but the connection is
extremely vague and there is practf-
cally nothing to work on in the eff
forts to find him.

in particular We must say that we can
see no reason why benevolent and
kindly disposed men of wealth in one
part of the land should not bestow
their gifts wherever the field seems
most inviting. Millions of dollars
have been given by philanthropists to
the cause of education in the North

and it's opportunities for doing good.
The ogden movement as we UNDER

the masses of the people and stimu-
late their interest in education by
means of practical assistance. 1t does
not intend TO assume entire charge of

law which restricts very sharply the
possibilities of obtaining divorce-pa-

but the advocates of restriction finally
achieved a great victory. What is
known as the Biblical cause is practi-
cally the only one now recognized

none OF his old officials, except in a
very few special cases. 1.-THE blow

Quite as sudden and terrible is the
bolt that comes from the White House
as recorded in the Washington Star,
that President Roosevelt believes that
a term of eight years is long enough
for any Federal official, and that those
who have held their Federal jobs that
long may get ready to walk the plank.
"And we hollered ourselves hoarse

of the bread and butter brigade! But
