men who are pursuing the various
courses at the Winthrop summer
school. Glasses have been organized
in all the departments, and every
thing Is moving along smoothly.
Dean Ballet Of the New York uni
versity, has spoken every day at the
open hour. Another most helpful
course Of lectures has been that by
DR.. Charles Henry Keyes Of New
York. A smile Of satisfaction was
discernible on the faces of the au-
dience when DR.. Snyder took his seat
on the rostrum Monday morning. He
made a short address that night, in
troductory to discussion Of the meth
DDS and aims Of literary study in the
schools. These are the morning and
evening lectures that have been heard
by the teachers the first week of the
school. Another and a very signifi-
cant part Of the work Is that of the
class room. Here the teacher stu
dents are catching from the various
instructors new matter and new meth
DDS for the next school year.
The Interurban at Gastonia.
At three o'clock Wednesday after
noon. says Gastonia special, the last
rail was laid on the interurban's
tracks between the underpass and the
freight depot at the corner Of Main
and Broad streets. The road is now
completed into the heart of Gastonia
and the workmen are busy stringing
the trolley wires over the stretch. of
road from the Modena station to the
uptown freight station. This work
will be finished by early next week
and 1t Is expected that cars will be
running to the freight station by Mon
day or Tuesday, and certainly by
Thursday, July 4. The freight depot
Is only a distance of two blocks from
the heart Of the business section OF
town and Is nearly a mile from the
Modena station, where the cars have
been stopping heretofore. This will
be much more convenient for the
travelling public and there Is no doubt
that passenger traffic over the inter-
urban will be greatly increased as soon
as the cars come to this point.

Gastonia is to have a big celebration
on July 4. Gastonia has had several
such celebrations and they have al
ways been successful.

but there was no disposition to try to

willing to. give his consent to any
thing of the kind and the matter
dropped there.

These two conventions-the Repub-
lican convention last week and the
Democratic convention this week
have had a most valuable educational
effect upon the people Of the country
For one thing, those people who have
been innocently believing that the
main business of a convention Is to
select a candidate, the best man.
and to incorporate in the platform
those principles and measures which
seem calculated to be Of the greatest
good to the greatest number. have
had their eyes opened. The main
fight in both conventions has been or
the question as to whether minorities
of the people should dominate major
tiles. In the Republican convention
the minority won; but in the Demo
cratic CO. yention the victory Of the
minority was less conspicuous.

We are especially struck with the
good work that S. f. Boney is doing
in reporting the state campaign for
the News and Courier. In the first
place the task is a most difficult one
Verbatim reports are out of the ques-
ton, and since each side is naturally
inclined to consider as favoritism or
partisanship anything that seems
calculated to create a friendly impress
sion for the other, the judgment and
discretion of the reporter is tested to
the limit. Mr.. Boney is evidently try
ing to be fair, as a newspaper report
er should always try to be.

The Democratic party lost its hold
on the country originally by allowing
itself to drift out of sympathy with
the masses of the people. In other
words the big interests took charge OF
1t. The Republican party arose to
power, merely by embracing the prin-
ciples that the Democratic party had
abandoned. The Republican party, OF
rather the dominant end Of it, is now
close to where the Democratic party
was when 1t lost it's grip, and the
Democratic party seems to be about
to take a new hold. AS to whether il
will succeed will depend upon the
man and the platform put forward
from Baltimore.

The most significant development Of
yesterday mornings session was the
conventions settlement of a contro-
versy over the ten delegates from
South Dakota in favor Of Wilson.
These were contesting delegates from
this state and the national committee
had decided in favor of the regularity
of the Wilson delegates. The commit
tee on credentials, composed of a
majority of Clark men reversed the
national committee and gave the dele
cation to Clark, % to %. The matter
went to the convention in majority
and minority reports and there result
ed in a close drawing of the lines. The
verdict of the convention was that
the delegation properly belonged to
Wilson, the vote being 639a to 437.

A story was sent out from Balti-
more Tuesday to the effect that Roose-
welt men had visited Bryan's head
quarters during the day; but Bryan
says he knows nothing about the mat
ter. The inference is that Roosevelt
was trying to frame up some kind of
deal with Bryan in the event the
Conservatives at Baltimore should
outgeneral the Progressives as at
Chicago. This Inference is based on
the generally recognized fact that
about the only difference between a
Republican Progressive and a Demo-
cratic Progressive is in the name. But
Mr.. Bryan will hardly bolt the ticket
not so long as his side gets rea-
sOnably fair deal.

All of Col. Roosevelt's utterances
have been Progressive enough; but
his record is decidedly reactionary. Fol
instance, 'the people shall rule
sounds good. but the coloners ad'
mission that he allowed the United
States Steel corporation to Absorb
Tennessee Coal and Iron in violation
of the law is not so re-assuring, even
with the excuse that the thing was
done to avert a panic.

Prospects for Encampment.
Columbia State, June 81: w. w
Moore, adjutant general of South
Carolina, said yesterday that the pros
poets for holding the annual encamp-
ment of the National Guard this sum-
mer were better than they had been
since the army appropriation bill was
vetoed by President Taft. The Off
cials Of the war department expect
special bill appropriating a sum
sufficient for the encampment to be
passed before congress adjourns. The
disappointment was keen among the
officers and men of the three South
Carolina regiments of the National
Guard when the adjutant general
made the announcement that the en-
campment might not take place for
lack of funds Gen. Moore and the
officers Of the South Carolina regi-
ments started Immediately to push
the bill carrying special appropria-
ton, and 1t Is expected that 1t will
pass in time for the encampment at
Admission. Ala, to be held.

Interest Increasing.

Interest in the circus" Is increasing
as it's season rolls away and the crowds
are larger at each town visited than
at former stops. The largest crowd
that has yet heard the candidates
was that at Florence Tuesday. and
more than a thousand people heard
the speakers at Dillon. There were
fewer personalities dealt in at Dillon
than at some of the previous meet
ings and it is thought that the cam
paign from now on will be marked by
less of the sensational.

The first part Of Judge Jones speech
