A PUBLIC SCHOOL BUILDING
NECESSARY.

One of the greatest needs OF the
town of fredericksburg is now before
one of its committees with three
practical and conservative citizens
added. This need is an up-to-date
school building for thewhite children.
Several years ago an elegant build
inc was erected for the colored chill
dren. which they are using today.
At the same time a large building
was purchased for a portion OF the
white children. which was then not
large enough for the purpose and
which was constructed fOrareSidence
and was not and cannot be made
suitable for school purposes. At the
time of the purchase two grades were
unable to get quarters in the build
inc and since then the white children
attending the schools have increased
in numbers so that now the two
grades have increased TO four And
in these four grades are more than
one-half of the white children attend
inc the public schools OF the city.
They are huddled together in rooms
at the courthouse, and adjacent
thereto, without proper light or
ventilation and surrounded by con
ditions detrimental to health. These
children are small, being the LIST,
2nd. Bird and 18th grades OF the
schools. Therefore. thechildren who
enter the first grade must remain in
those disagreeable rooms for four
years. granting they are promoted
every year, before they reach the
Union House. whose rooms are no
great improvement. From TINS
statement OF plain facts may be seen
how important a good school build
ING is that can comfortably accom-
MEDIATE all the white school children
of the town. The present rooms are
not suitable. are unhealthy, and
these unfsvorable conditions and
surroundings may permanently al
feet the eyes and stunt the minds
and bodies OF these little children.
In the light of these things and their
possibilities the Council should not
stand on the cost or trihe away the
time in constructing themuch needed
school building. Our children S
health and physical and moral devel-
opment are worth more to US than
any other consideration. and haste.
should be the watchword OF the
Council in the matter.

A pOOR SHOWING For SOUTH.

In the course of the debate on the

II Paul Portner. of Manassas, who
was recently appointed to a consul
late in Germany. The Virginia Con-
gresham finally referred TO the
South's large commercial intensts
and demanded that she be given
some representation in this service.
If proper men for these places can I
be found by the President in the
ranks of the Republican party, then
Democrats should be chosen. said
Mr. Flood. We quite agree with
him. The South. comprising a large
and important section OF this coun-
try. is entitled. politics aside to
have her citizens in this government
service. and the President must have
found the Republican party South at
q low ebb. else it is natural TO sup
pose that he would not have entirely
ignored three Southern States IN ms
selection of consuls We must either
take this view or else arrive at the
conclusion that the administration
is determined to test the loyalty Of
Southern Republicans when the test
is minus the usual pic-counter pat
ronage. In any event, we trust that
in the future citizens OF the South
NAV be able to 20 abroad as repre-
sentatives of this government. and
rood men sent. whether they are
Democrats or Republicans. What
we want is representation. We are
entitled TO it as a matter of right
and Justice. What is the President
going to DO about it?
