Kindly allow me a little

that our teachers would cost us
a lot more after going to tho
training school. We have to
pay at present thirty five or forty
dollars. I wish to know
many there are in the county that
had not rather pay forty-rive
or fifty dollars a month and have
a trained teacher to care for
their children than pay a small
salary and have i. competent

was strong rivalry between the Re-

strong Democrat, but many of the
farmers were Republicans. On the
morning of the election a

blacksmith said both

THIS SETTLES THE QUESTION.
THE TOWN AND COUNTY STAND TOGETHER AND WILL BOTH DO
THEIR PART.
It is strange what statements people will sometimes make in
their eagerness to turn sentiment. It reached tho cars of The R e
Hector that some people were trying so hard to defeat the proposed
bond issue to secure the Eastern training school in Pitt county.
they have been telling that Greenville did not propose to apply any
of the town bonds toward the school but was going to use them all
for town improvements, and would depend upon the county bonds
the school. Of course such a statement is absurd, and that
no one might be deceived by it we addressed a letter to the board
of county commissioners while that body was in session Monday
to get an expression from the members that will settle the matter-
