purpose of calling the at-
of the Chamber cf Com-
to this matter is to impress
the necessity of insisting that
the Pamlico river is opened up
as far as Greenville and farther
if possible. It is not known that
it is practical to establish a ten
foot water way as high up as
Greenville, but this is a golden
opportunity to get an accurate
survey made of the river and
determine what depths can be
obtained as high up as our city.
The Chamber of Commerce
should take this matter
mediately with Senator Simmons
as he can and no doubt will if
properly brought to his attention,
amend his bill to include Tar

It is insisted first that bond

in section article of . the

whether the act be a public
law as defined in State v.
N. C. and similar
cases, or purely a private act as
contended by plaintiffs; the courts
will not go behind the ratification
I of the act to ascertain whether
notice has been given in accord-

While that is binding
upon the conscience of the gen-
assembly and doubtless is
intended to be observed by that

what do you think of the out-
come of th.
To this
I am delighted with the spirit
shown by every member of the
board at the recent meeting on
the 10th and They demon-
i y their words and ac-
that they realized that they
were laying the foundation of a
great institution, which would
great service to their
Mate, and become an important
factor in educational forces.
They seamed determined to prof-
it the experiences of the past
in adopting all the good and
avoiding all the errors that have
been made in planning for such
an institution. They wisely
availed the services
of Mr. H. an ex-
landscape architect, to
lay out the grounds and t
the location of the various build-
now and hereafter to be
erected, that we may have an
artistic plan to up to.
I think we are especially for-
in the selection of
to get up the plans for the
buildings now to be erected. The
Something like two million brick
will be required and other ma-
in proportion. It is earn-
hoped that those desiring
to furnish brick and other ma-
for these buildings will
keep in mind that it is great
public institution and that they
will enter into the spirit which
seems to animate everybody to
contribute something to the pub-
service, and that they will
make their prices for material as
low as possible. We do not ex-
to obtain material and labor
for nothing, nor do we expect
anybody to charge more than .
seasonable compensation for
either.
So I may say that I am greatly
pleased with the outcome of the
meeting of the board of trustees
and that I look forward with
bright hopes to the future work
of board in connection with
the institution.
