SPEAKS WELL FOR VIRGINIA v0-
TERS.


The people Of North Carolina took
deep interest in the recent Virginia
primary, particularly IN the race for
State Superintendent Of Public In
struction. for two reasons:
] One Of the candidates, Mr.. J. d..
Egsleston, Jr.. was for some years a
resident of North Carolina, and was
superintendent ofthe Asheville graded
schools
=. MI Eggleston had discovered
aud exposed GRAFT in the department
~ which DE has now been chosen the
head. and had otherwise shown his
ability and fitness for that important
position.
The returns from Virginia disclose
the fact that Mr.. Eggleston was nomi-
mated 10y a majority Of thirty thous-
and-the largest majority received by
any candidate. That large majority
speaks well for the voters Of Virginia.
To is too often true that the courageous
man who exposes graft is refused hon
or,. and, while his brave action secures
the removal Of the derelict officials, the
place s too often given TO man who
lacks the civic courage necessary 10
expose wrong-doIng That is so often
the fate ofthepublic-spirited reformer,
that DO isa matter for congratulation
that the Virginia voter, have honored
themselves by the significant majority
they have given Mr.. EggIeston.
The election Of a man like Mr.. Eg-
lesion 10 the head Of Virginia. system
of public instruction Is matter for
congratulation for a better reason, for
he is man whose faith, ideals, be-
lief,. aud capacity eminently fit him
for the great Office. I'm our newer ed
ucational activities, the chief officer IN
every Southern state, except the Gov
emor is the head Of the public school
system Too long We have regarded
that Office as secondary 10 the custo-
dian Of funds, or the keeper Of the
great seal, OF the law official We
have learned better now, and in all the
Southern States the wisest citizens are
more importance to the
head of the public school system than
toany other official oflike degree. Mr. |
