Misses Tucker and Annie Ty-
son at Lang's school
of other Training school girls through
out Eastern Carolina, they can then
realize In a small way what a great
work this Institution Is doing.
It Is a great pity that the
before making Us
could not have visited one of
these schools and seen for Itself what
the Institution Is giving In the way
of efficient teachers. The Training
School needs more money and the
legislature should see that It is not
hampered In Its work of supplying
capable teachers. The demand Is
great and Lang's school Is quite for-
In obtaining the services of

when every section of our state will
be able to boast of good schools

In Its community, Its county

Walker, the Macon banker who

although physicians declare he cannot

Messages from all parts of the
country have been received by Mr.
some from surgeons land
physicians who offer their services to
assist him in his fight to overcome
the effects of the poison.
Mr. Walker swallowed the dose,

told by physicians on Friday that
could not live, Mr. Walker resigned
himself to his fate, arose from his bed
and held a reception for his friends
at his home.
After the first day tho pain
and the gnawing poison set about its
deadly work of slowly but surely de-
tho functions of the kidney
and liver. Mr. Walker says he feels
as well physically as he ever did in his
lite, and, save for a slight pallor, no
one would know from his appearance
he was a living dead man.
Yesterday Mr. Walker, who is re-

Editor The
When the dark clouds of war had

not complied with be was to reduce

On the afternoon of the 11th of

to comply. Early on tho next day

Up until tho date of tho bombard-
of Fort Sumter, North Carolina,
with several other Southern states,
had stood aloof from the secession
movement, and being still in the
ion were called upon to furnish their
part of tho troops. From almost all
of them came replies of the most de-
kind. As soon as the authorities
at Montgomery made a call for
additional troops, the young men be-
to volunteer and leave their
homes to tight for all that was near
and dear to them. Many of us have
a lively recollection of those stirring
days, and, please- God, they may never

WASHINGTON, May
Simmons, of the Senate Finance Com-
will call at the State Depart-
tomorrow to discuss with Sec-
Bryan the perplexing problems
which have arisen because of foreign
protests to administrative features of
the tariff bill. Nearly the entire time
of today's Cabinet meeting was de-
voted to this of the situation.
Senator Simmons after arranging
today for a conference with the Sec-
of State admitted that
protests had been filed with the
committee from Germany, France,
Great Britain and other countries. II
that before the committee took
action relating to the whole
question would be thoroughly discuss-
ed with the State Department.
Complaints have been made that
certain clauses of the Underwood bill
would abrogate with foreign
countries. It was reported that the
German would soon bring
to Washington a protest against the
provision which would grant a five
per cent discount In the tariff on
ports in American owned or
ed vessels. There have been
that President Wilson would not
object to an elimination of this pro-
vision, which Is said to be held by
Germany to violate the commerce and
navigation treaty of
of France, has
lodged protests which the Finance
Committee chairman and State De-
heads will discuss.
Tariff hearings by the Senate Fin-
sub committees which have
been in for nearly a month,
closed tonight and tomorrow will be
gin the actual work of revising the
schedules as they came from the
House.
With the close of the hearings, the
tariff became the subject of discussion

to President Wilson's denunciation of
tariff lobbyists and mother tilt be-
tween Democratic senators on
