Evidence Acoumulates in Favor of
a Compulsory ~School Law.
But the evidence accumulates almost
daily that a law that will torce parents

must be the very starting point of the
fight against illiteracy in North Caro
lina. Without « law that will compel
the attendance of the children how are
we to fill even the schools we have?
The evidence is ample that we do not
ful them. That it is children with
books ard a thirst for knowledge that
ace needed more than additional school
buildings and teachers, here is but
one way to get them, We may set a
school buildiag in ~every cove and a
ecliege on every hill and still be for
years to come the most illiterate . state
in the Union. But with the enforee-
maent uf a Jaw that compels the attend~
ance of every child above, say, seven

"":| This ian old, and oft repeated éx_|
pression, yet jt needs to be sounded
every day, The practice of it is what
makes communities great and prosper-
ous.
That it pays ~to trade ncar home, is
la well established fact, and no tuwn or
city ever prospered whose citizens, en-
ticed by the alluring baits held out by
the merchants in the big: cities spend
their money with them. *
The local merchant and mechanic
are interested in the progress and de-
velopment of the town and ccuntry in
which they hve, and every dollar that
they amags is reinvested and remains
in the neighborhood. As they prosper
their taxes increase, and just so much
those of others are lightened. They
assist in keeping up your schools,
churches and other public institutions
and charities. But the person who
spends his money in some distant city
puts it beyond assisting in any local
enterprise. ~The man in the city upan
whom you bestow your custom has no
further interests in you or your sur-
roundings than the cash he receives
from you. It is no concern of, his
whether you are as devoid of social,
church or educational privileges as the
inhabitants of Borriv-boola-Gha, or
whether your streets or highways are
well made as an atoriginal Indian
trail, The surplus money which he
has to bestow will go to enrich the
exchequer of institutiens from which
you will never receive any benefit and
to add to the weal.h of communities in
which you have no financial interest."

Women and Labor.
Se
The July bulletin of the depariment
of ~abor shows that as the years roll on
women are more and more occupying
remunerative posts hitherto heid by
men.
In the census of 1870, 1t appeared
that 9.63 per cent. of a'l the women 0:
the country were employed in remuner
ative employment, but twenty years
later, as exhibited by the census re-
turns of 1890, the proportion of wo.
men thus employed had reached 12,51
per cent, ot all the population of that
sex.
Accerding to the departmentTs di-
gest ot the census returns of 1870 and
1890 it appears that in 1890 more than
one-sixth ot the total number of. per-
sons at work in the country were wo.
men, a8 compared with a little more
than one-seventh of the cenuss of 1870.
The compiler suys that tne increase in
the proportion of women workers is
especially noticeable 1m professional
service, in which class the women con-
stituted in 1890 very nearly one.third
of all persons so occupied as ccmpared
with less than one-fourth in 1870.
Women are also very numerously
represented in manufacturing mechan -
ical industries and in. trade and
trensportation, in clerical positions for
the most part. The representation in
these branches of mdustry grew from 2
per. cent. in 1870 to7 per cent. in
1890 of all persons 80 employed.
. Jn 1870 the number of, women
engaged in work was 1,836,288 ; in
1880 it was 2,647,157 and in 1890,
13,914,571.
Tuis will accovnt im a measure tor
the greater number of men out of
employment as also in some instances
tor the reduction of wages. We are
reliably informed that before the war
there was but one wowan clerk in all

Some Questions.
When'~a Republican speaker in
the next campaiga is asked why
he raised the price of sugar, what
will he say? !
When asked why ke put bind-
Ing twine on the free list »nd cot-
ton bagging and ties on the tax
list what will ho say?
When asked why he put com-
mon straw matting used by the
poor on the tax list, when pone of
it 18 madein this country, what
will be say?
When he finds workmenTs wag-
es no higher after the passage of
the Dingley bill than before, und
every manufactured thing the
working man must bvy higher?
There will be many more head
splitters for him before the next
election 18 over.

We rejoice in believing that the
business conditions cf the

because our people have been economi-

The Territory of Alaska 1s a good
way off, Heretotore the people of the
United States have had very little. ia-
terest in that inhospitable nort hwestern
corner ot North America. There are
conseqvently very erroneous notions
entertained of this Arctic possession.
Some idea of the size of Alaska may
that it
contains an area of 577,°90 square
miles. This ismore than twice the
area of [exas. ~Twelve States of the
size cof Pennsylvania could be carved
out of the ~Lerritory of Alaska, with
enough left over to make a State like

THE THREE TAILORS.
Three little tailors, to have a good time,
Went to the tavern of Ingelheim,
On the Rhine, on the Rhine.
Their pockets were empty, but still they nurs-
ed
The hope that some one would quench their
thirst
Wika wine, with wine.
oSir host, we are broke, wo have not a cent}
In seeing the world our gold we've spent,
On the Rhine, on the Rhine.
But come, weTll show you some wonderful
tricks,
Yn return we ask you give us for nix
Some wine, some wine.TT
oYe fellows, the keeper of Ingelheim
Will sell you.a glass of wine for a dime,
On the Rhine, on the Rhine!
But for all your tricks with needle and thread
A punch in the head heTll give you instead
Of wine, of wine.�T
A sunbeam one of them caught in his hat
And nimbly threaded his needle with that,
Ou the Rhine, on the Rhine,
A broken wineglass he sewed with the beam
So well that no one could see the seam,
In wine, in wine.
The second tailor caught hold of a gnat
As on the bridge of his nose it squat,
On the Rhine, on the Rhine.
The gnat wore socks with a bole like a dot.
He darned it so finely you noticed it not,
For wine, for wine.
His needle of steel the third one grabbed,
With all his might in the wall he stabbed,
On the Rhine, on the Rhine.
A lightning flash through the needle eye slip
ped"- ~
I saw the wonder myself while I sipped
My wine, my wine.
The host of Ingelheim said: ~I see
The truest, smartest men are you three
On the Rhine, on the Rhine."
A thimblo ho took and filled to the brim,
and laughingly said: '~Now, boys, take aswim
�"� wine, in wine!�
