iaw says the county must arst have
enough funds 10 run their free
schools four months before the Dis
trict High School has the right to
take any. According TO that the pa
irons OF the common school have no
perity OF this great State. While
over so per cent OF the people get
their only schooling in the common
schools. and they are the people that
make schooling possible for US all.
and while all branches of education
are feeling the impetus OF increased
wealth. yet the free schools stay the
same. From the very source that We
should expect our greatest aid eman-
ates the conditions that further i'm
poverish the common schools.
The Superintendent OF Public In
struction of the State OF North Caro-
lima is using the influence that comes
to him as head of our free school
system TO establish and maintain 9TH
er schools more to his liking, while
the very thing that he is elected for
is being neglected. AS the conditions
exist, which are largely OF his max
ing, we have the means Of establish
ing from one to four District High
Schools in the State. The patrons
of those schools realize that they are
getting their children educated at
one-third of its actual cost. That
such an arrangement does have a
tendency to make the recipient Of
those favors feel kindly toward the
donor goes without saying. There
fore by esta blishing from one to four
of those schools, it necessarily puts
good following of the wealth and
influence under obligations to Mr..
Joyner.
Il have previously explained the
election and selection of the teach
ers. The arrangement affects the
teacher similar to the patrons; for
he, too, must recognize the power be-
hind the throne. For the same infiu
ence that makes the school also
makes the teacher of it. What more
could be desired by any man than
the power vested in our Superinten-
dent to further his political ends?
Who dares to tell us that the school
teacher is not subervient to this in
ffuence, and that there are not other
requirements besides his knowledge
of books to get a position in the
aforementioned schools? Can we
boast of our freedom and allow the
influence of one man to dominate any
branch of our Government?

Says the Durham Herald:

When cotton was selling for
Is cents it happened to be in the
hands of those who would not
take less than that for it."
And it also happened after the far
mers had been prospecting for a num-
Der OF years under laws enacted by&a
administration. If the
Democrats should gain full control of
the National Congress, and did not
exercise any more Judgment than
when they were in power before, the
farmers would soon, be too poor to
hold their cotton, and it probably
would not benefit them any if they
were too.

DEMOCRATIC "GOOD GOVERN
MENT" IN robson.

Democratic good government" has
been a failure in Robson County, as
we'll as in the other counties in the
State. The Rowland Sun is unable
to find any results from the thou
sands of dollars spent in that county
each year for roads We quote the
following from the last issue Of the
Sun
I'VE don't believe there Is
county in the State where there
are more bad roads than here
in Robson, and yet thousands of
dollars are spent on them every
year. We hear so much about
Robson being the greatest
county in the State and it is,
but in the matter of good roads
We are among the most back
ward. We get a new road law
passed at nearly every Legisla-
ture, and if there is any improve
ment, We fail to see it"
Some of the money supposed to be
spent for good roads in Robson
County was spent in working a pri-
Vate road in front of the home of one
of the road overseers, and if we mis-
take not, the same road force spent a
week digging'up stumps out of field
that belonged to the said overseer.
Possibly the rest of the road money
was spent for similar purposes.
Mondays issue of the Robesonian,
In commenting on the number of
crimes being committed in Robson
County, says:
Since noon day before yester-
day three men have met violent
deaths in Robson County, each
OF different race-white, negro
and Indian-and another Indian
has been wounded, a suspender
buckle being the only thing that
saved him from the fate of the
other three
It Will be remembered that Robe
son was the county the Democrats
were asked to steal some years ago In
order to save the State for the Demo
cratic off1ce-holders. And the crime.
condoned in those days are possibl,
responsible for the careless way il
which the road money is handled ant
for the crime wave that is now sweep
ing that county; and the Democratic
rank and file In Robson are no
through hollering. The Democratic
machine in that county has not onl,
increased the taxable value Of prop
erty, but have also increased the Ia
rate, and as a result, the taxes thi
fall will be almost unbearable.
Robson would be an excellen
county If it could get rid of the Dem
ocratic barnacles that are now ham
pering its progress.

Mr.. P. A. Hooker, of Kinston, N.
c., writing to the Raleigh Evening
Times, says:
Il have wondered if it is possible
to pass laws wherein one man has
the school machinery more under his
control than is the case in Nor h Car
DINA. Perhaps a review of me stu
alton wouldn't be amiss. The Legis-
lature of 1909, through the influence
of Mr.. Joyner, passed the necessary
acts to establish what We know as
district high schools. Those district
high schools are maintained in three
different ways: CD By State air;
CD by aid from the common school
funds; and 80 by subscription or To-
cal taxation. The law is, so arranged
If the district raises from $3.50 to
$500 that district can get the same
amount from both the country school
fund in which the district is located,
and also the State Treasurer pays
like amount, for every dollar the dis
trict raises the county and State pays
one each. These special districts
take from the common school fund
of the county from $3.50 to $500 and
their proportional part of the re-
mainder. The common school will
ever be common school will ever be
common as long as the Legislature of
North Carolina allows their funds to
be used by special districts Each
district, should have it's proportional
part and no more. From the last
Legislature comes the farm life
school, or rather by the way of, and
it is the election and selection of the
teachers for both the farm life and
district high schools that / wish to
have something to say. The district
high school teachers have to go be-
fore the State Beard OF Examiners,
and there get their permit. The State
Board of Examiners are appointed by
the State Board of Education upon
the recommendation OF Superinten-
dent of Public Instruction. The prin.
cipal of the District High School gets
from $500 to $1,000 per year. The
principal of the common schools gel
from 500 to $40 per year. The
District High School average time il
about seven seven and a half months
while the average time of the com
mon school is about four months
The District High Schools get theil
proportional part OF the common OF
free school funds. and also from $3.50
to $500 extra from the free sehoo
money of the county in which the,
are situated. North Cardinals Su

In addition to the great number OF
crimes that are being committed in
the State by civilians" some of the
officers of the law are adding their
quota to the death list. Only a few
days ago a policeman in Henderson
shot a man of good family who was
under the influence of whiskey and
did not want to be arrested. A guard
at a convict camp near Wilmington
was looking for escaped convicts and
shot the first negro he saw, and of
course shot the wrong negro At
Goldsboro a few days. before a gen.
tleman who was aiding in the arrest
of a suppose crap-shooter shot down
the negro because he would not stop
running.
There are enough crimes being
committed in this State without the
officers adding to the death list when
there is no provocation for murder

WHERE liz ATTENDED BIG
Skinner BANQUET FOR TREAT

western trip, on which he visited In
the city OF Seattle while John Frank
Treat, imperial potentate Of the Mobiles
Of the Mystic Shrine Of North Ameri-
ca, was there, and attended the ban
quet which was rendered the chief
shriner at the temple in the Puget
Sound metropolis.
1T was a very elaborate affair, said
Mr.. Van Horn to a Forum representa-

mer Fargoans were there to see Mr..
Treat and to extend him a cordial
greeting Of the Pacific coast. They
We're Billy Allen and George w. Prize.
Both were glad to meet the celebrated
Fargo shriner and the sight OF them
made him feel quite at home at once.
During the speeches ait the banquet,
the imperial potentate related en- Incl

country surrounding the city.
Mr.. Treat said that while he was
out driving In an automobile In COM

They told him to go ahead and he did,

They were charged with stealing a

were released to appear the next after
