The Trinity of old Randolph has
done a noble work notwithstanding
its youth and its embarrassments.
Scores and hundreds trained
young men of Christian
characters have gone out from its
halls to elevate humanity, to bless
society and to important

feeling has grown up among its
friends that its sphere of usefulness
might be enlarged by its re
to a more accessible locality.
In obedience to this which
grew and increased as the matter
was discussed, the necessary orders
have been given for its removal and

The excitement in Wall street, if

Among the great educators of the
past, Braxton Craven stood in
front rank. It was under his
band that Trinity College rose
from bumble little log cabin
to to a high among our

to it all that a great brain and a
warm heart could bestow, and when

was found to take it up. Did time
permit it would give me pleasure to
speak of the noble professors and

Craven in his heroic efforts to make
Trinity a College of his de-

nation in our State in the last few

Wake Forest we may do for Trinity
if we will only be as united, as active
and as zealous as they have been.
And I come to-day to appeal to our
Methodist friends throughout
State to forget section and locality,
to forget the and bicker-

and to gather around college
with a purpose to make it a great

East Awake
The educational progress of
North Carolina for the last decade
has been very satisfactorily view-
ed as a whole, but viewed with re-
to sections, the eastern
counties have fallen far behind
the western. Perhaps one
nation of this is that the effects of
bad crops for the last few years
have not been so sorely felt in the
west as in the east, and the people
have not been in such -stringent
circumstances. But we think a
far greater reason is the
of our eastern people in the
matter of education. From a care-
review of the of our
Colleges and University it will be
seen that the eastern counties of
Carolina do not keep pace with the
western in the number of students.
While this is the case with regard
to the University and the three
leading Colleges of our State,
there are several other Colleges of
lower grade which draw their pat-
almost exclusively from
the western counties. The
mies of the west arc not only more
numerous, but they also receive a
much larger patronage. In Davie
county for instant, which is not
more than one fourth as large as
Pitt county, and with not more
than one fourth the population,
there are six well built academies,
each of which receives a good pat-
In addition to these six
in the county there are three
others in adjoining counties not
more than a mile from the Davie
line which also draw patronage
from the county, thus making nine
schools, which are kept open the
full school year and each within
the reach of the people of Davie.
How many good school build-
are there in Pitt county Not
more than four or five that we
know of. What a difference Pitt
with an area and population four
times as great as Davie, and we
will add with more wealth in pro-
portion to its population, has few-
schools, and these schools a
smaller patronage than those of
Davie. Davie is not ahead of the
other western counties, nor do we
believe that Pitt is behind the
other eastern counties. We mere-
take these two as an illustration
because we know more of their
educational progress than we do
of others.
Go to most any of the larger
towns of West North and
among the prominent buildings
you will see the school buildings.
Wherever the population is large
enough they have a well regulated
Graded School, and where the
population is not sufficient they
have good academies, and they
unite and support these academies
and are not divided into a half
dozen or more schools like we are
in the east, when one mixed school
or two, one male and one female,
are enough for the place. And
these schools not confined to
the towns, but you will find them
scattered through the country in
almost every village, hamlet, and
neighborhood. The people take
pride in them, and give them a
liberal patronage, and keep them
open at least eight months, and
the most of them ten months
the year. One other matter
they use to advantage, which we
do not in the east, and that is the
public school funds in the districts
in which these academies are sit-
During a certain number
of months the teachers are paid
out of the public school money
and after the public school is over
each student has the opportunity
of pursuing his studies right on
through the year, while here in
the east the public school not be-
more than two or three
months, and not followed by any
private school, what little the
dent learns in public school, he will
forget before it opens again. The
people of the west seem to have
gotten hold of the -true theory
that it is better to be united and
have good schools than to be
and have no schools and let
their children grow up in
As a North Carolinian we take
great pride in the intellectual
growth of our State, and we earn-
desire to see the day when
the east shall take its stand beside
the west in educational as well as
in other matters, and march on to
the great development to which
we believe our State is destined.
We see no good excuse for this in-
lethargy among
people. Our fields are as
and our resources are as good
as those of the west. While they
may have the advantage of us in
somethings, we have the
in others. It is time

The late election is very
cant in various particulars. The
two great parties of the country
have been before the American
voters for a long- time and every
two years the people at the ballot
box attest their preference for one
or the other of the parties. Tho
Republicans have the President,
the Senate and the House of Rep-
The late election
has somewhat reversed the order
of things. The present House
his Republican majority, which
has been increased to that
bar by unseating Democrats and
seating- Republicans. Mr. Reed,
of Maine, was made Speaker, and
to him was delegated the power to
appoint committees and rule as he
deemed proper. The November
election gives the Democrats
of the House by not less
majority. So the next Speaker
will be Democratic and will rule
as he deems proper. It is rather
significant that such States as
Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
Pennsylvania, Island, New-
York, Iowa, Minnesota, that have
heretofore elected Republican
legislators have now joined the
Democratic ranks and will elect
Democratic Senators to succeed
the present Republican Senators,
whose time expires next March.
The cause of this political
is attributable to at least three
causes that may be of interest to

There is only one place
where the man of toil can have re-
the ballot box. It was
at the ballot this iniquitous
law was denounced the first
Tuesday. It was a rebuke to all
those who were conspicuous in its
passage. Mr. the
of the tariff bill, is defeated.
His own people have repudiated
him and put their seal upon such
class legislation.
The Lodge Bill was a very
universe scheme and quite a
cult bill to sustain upon the stump
The Democrats saw here a power,
weapon to use against the Re-
publicans and they used it for all
it's worth. This bill provides for
supervisors of all elections,
pointed by a Federal Judge.
These supervisors are to watch
the ballot box, and their decision
on the elector is to be valid. This
means that the author of the bill
believes that gross frauds are per-
at the ballot box, or it
means a scheme to defeat the will
of the people. We don't propose
to say which idea is more
in the mind of the author of
the bill. There is one thing, how-
ever, that can be read upon the
very surface of the matter. It was
a plan to degrade and humiliate
the South. Very few Southern
white men are in favor of the bill.
Those who have in the land
of their birth and who repose con-
in the integrity of the
judges of election don't propose
to be humiliated by the passage of
a law that places spies at every
ballot box. This bill had its effect
in the defeat of the Republicans
and will no doubt have a whole
some effect upon those who seek
by legislative enactments to rob
South of her honor and glory.
The war has been ended years
it is time sectional prejudice
and unjust and discriminative laws
were forever blotted from the
