the state at so much Der And nearly

If any should fail to secure the job to
which he thinks he is entitled that one
will heap maledictions upon the head

PERMIT REVOKED FOR
BURNS ATLANTA AGENT
From the Atlanta Journal May 90

From the Atlanta Journal May 90
by revoking the detective agency
permit of c. E. Sears, manager of the
Atlanta branch of the w J. Burns
National Detective agency, the board
of police commissioners Tuesday
night put itself on record as being
opposed to the operation in this city
of the detectives who recently inves-
tigated the Frank ease.
THE board wanted to revoke the
license of Sears and would have done
so, except for ruling of City Attof-
Dey Mayson that this was beyond
the boards authority. Attorney May
son explained that detective agency
license is issued by the city clerk on
recommendation of the police board
He said the board could rescind its
recommendation on which the license
of Sears was issued, but could not
revoke the license itself He said
not even the city clerk could revoke
the license Only the general council
would have this authority, he said
Accordingly the board revoked its
recommendation, or permit, and thel
passed a resolution recommending
that council revoke the license.
Sears license is the one under
which Burns has operated in Allan
ia previous to as well as during the
Frank investigation. The grounds
on which the board revoked Sears
permit, as set forth in the resolu-
tion introduced by Commissioner
Andy R. King, were:
First, that Sears agreed to handle
only banking business, as an agent
of the American Bankers Associa-
ton, which agreement he has VIC
lated.
Second, that Sears agreed to sub
NIT to the chief of police the names
of all operatives he wished to employ
and to employ none who were turn
ed down by the chief, which agree
ment he has violated.
Third, that Sears agreed to work
always in harmony with the city de-
tectives of Atlanta, which agree
ment he has violated.
Sears was present at the meeting.

CULLOWHEE NORMAL

Destined To BE Leading Factor il,

Carolina. Prof. Utley Thinks.

To the Editor:-Since coming to
jackson county last fail it has been
my pleasure to visit CulloWhee several
times and note with pride what is be
ing accomplished there. The school
has ten We'll prepared teachers. Prof.
a. G. Reynolds, formerly county SUI
p~eTintendent Of Buncombe county, is
the very efficient principal and pro
fessor Of pedagogy. The school is the
largest now-in its history, having en-
rolled approximately two hundred stu
dents, the larger majority Of whom
are boarding students. Nearly all OF
these young men and women expect
to teach. Many Of them have already
laugh one or more terms Of public
school The State must have invested
in buildings something like $50, 600.
There are three splendid buildings.
One of these is a girls dorr1ltOry
which accommodates perhaps l25
| young ladies.
In the old administration building
is a Well equipped auditorium which
is seated with open chairs and seats
500 people. A new administration
building is nearing completion which
will cost about $4,000. In this new
building. there are seventeen class
rooms, q study hall accommodating
two hundred pupils, society halls, and
on the third floor will be fitted UP q
modern library and reading room.
Just now the school and vicinity are
taxed to their utnos 10 provide
boarding facilities for the students.
This school is located in an ideal com
munity. Towering mountains sur
round it in every direction. In the
village is a Baptist and a Methodist
church. The school has a splendid

Worth the Experiment.

There is this to be said about the Saunders
anti-vce bill The policy involved. is unques-
tonabiy inspired by purpose to improve moral
conditions in Virginia. and II Is backed by con-
siderable public sentiment which is earnestly
convinced that good results will follow the
adoption and enforcement Of the Measure.
Would it not be we'll worth while. therefore.
TO give it the benefit of experiment to
let consequences incident to its application
either vindicate destroy the force Of the
opinion and conviction upon which its propo-
nents rely II seems to 4Hdeeti,-it our
Judgment the conflict OF view 10 which this leg
islation has given rise be satisfae toriiy
adjusted and the most effective weapons against
immortality can never be selected as intelligently
they might be, until trial is had upon some
such policy the Saunders bill proposes If
that measure produces the unhappy and de-
plorable consequences predicted for It by those
who are fighting 1t, 1t is yet to be remembered
that within the short space Of two years II can
be repealed or if it serves to reduce the of
sin and shame and misery in Virginia cities to
which red light districts contribute then in
deed 1t will have answered purpose for which
the Virginia public will have abundant reason
to feel forever and profoundly grateful. In
saying this The News IS not unmindful of the
fact that many OF the ablcst. most conscien-
tous members of the General Assembly sincere
ly apprehend that the Saunders bill instead OF
accomplishing reform. will rather operate to
accentuate and ampify the prevalence Of the
social evil So much OF conjecture is involved
IN this position, however-it is so largely made
up OF speculation. 1t does appear that the mat
ker deserves test-the reasonable test that two
years OF enforcement would provide.--Lynch-

FAIR FIGHTING.

Senator Mapp spoke plainly but justly when
he denounced the effort made in the senate to
defeat the moral legislation on the senate calen-
dar. The anti-gambing bill, the anti-shipping
bill and the antivice bill are all still on the
calendar The anti-gambling bill must be
reached and a vote taken In very short time,
probably this morning. By aggressive action
In which he was assisted by Senators, Walker,
Saunders and West. Senator Mapp secured the
discharge Of the committee from further con-
sideration OF the antishipping BILL and 1t is
also on It's second reading. and must be
reached under the ordinary rules OF procedure.
The anti-vioe bill not be reached except by
extraordinary procedure. Senator Mapp de-
clared last night that senators must go on
record or these moral measures. If they did
not desire to go on record they could, of course,
seek the refuge Of the cloak room. But the
bills should not be killed by indirecton If he
could help 1t and the people of the State who
watching the battle which is being waged
on the floor of the Senate of Virginia will ap-
prove this position
II is characteristic. however, of the liquor
moral measures that it will not stand for
fair fight. 1t will always attempt to dodge
and TO smother in the darkness OF the execu-
tive sessions of committees, every moral
measure" The antgambling bill was killed
by just such tactics last session. There are
three days left, and ample time in which to
pass every moral measure on the calendar
of both houses. without the slightest deriment
to any other local or State interest which Is
worthy OF consideration. Senators who will
not vote to take up these measures so that
vote may be had upon them. just GER
tainy the opponents of these measures al
though their votes should be recorded agains
them. All the members of the Senate of Vir
ginia are present and If their votes are re
corded on other measures, and are not record
ed on these moral measures the fair inference
/ is that these senators did not want to go or
record. Certainly II any senator is unavoid
ably absent when the vote is taken on any o
these bills he should rise and explain publicity
in the senate the causes Of his absence.

WOMEN AND BREWERIEsS.

The Richmond delegation was conspicuous
last night by its insistence that the senate bill
which prohibits the employment of any minor
or any female in any capacity In any place
where intoxicating liquors bought sold
manufactured or shipped, should be so amend
ed az to exempt females who are employed in
putting labels on bottles containing liquors or
beer This amendment offered by Mr..
Montague and supported by Messrs. Hobson and
Toney The house adjourned pending consid.
Grafton Of the amendment
The amendment should be defeated The
bill was passed In the senate by a large ma
jority Why should there be exemption in
favor of the pasting on OF labels? No place
is suitable for the employment OF women where
intoxicating liquors handled The whole
business is under the ban 1t is tolerated for
time but it is recognized as an evil and has
few open defenders. Public morality demands
that women shall not be employed in connec-
ton with the liquor business. The amendment
desired by the gentlemen from the city of
Richmond should be defeated and bill passed
without amendment as it came from the sen
ate.

USEFUL ON THE BOARD.

Hon. ]. d. Eggleston. whose appointment as
a member Of the State board of education was
confirmed by the senate yesterday will make a
very useful member OF that body. Mr.. Eggles;
ton is of the most progressive men con.
nected with educational work in Virginia and is
thoroughly familiar with our public school sys.
tenn and its needs AS superintendent of public
instruction for several years he has had more
to do perhaps with the development and i'm.
provement Of our system than any other man.
unless 1t be his very efacient assistant and wor-
thy successor, Mr.. Stearnes
Public interest in popular education was never
so great in Virginia as now There is urgent
demand in every section that our schools be
improved and that the best possible advantages
be provided for all our children. Mr. Eggleston
as member of the State board is the right man
in the right place.
