Dear Srr:—I wish to call your
attention to the important election to
tuke place iu your county on the first
Monday in June, 1897, in accordance
w.th Section 6 of the School Law as
enacted by the last General Assembly.
I trust that the greatest wisdom will
beused in selecting the County Board of
Education.

Let men be selected for their qualifi-
cation to discharge the umportant duties
as members of the County Board of

I sizcerely hope that pclitics will have
nothing at all to do with the selection
of these men.

Let men be selecied who have the
lucational interests of their county at
heart, men who will not be actuated by
any petty prejudice, but men who will
at all times and under all circumstanceg
keep the school interests as an incen-
tive to wise and prudent action on their
part. Yours very truly,

C. H. MEBANE.

Buried in Tarboro.

The remains of Mr. J. H. Blount
were taken to Tarboro by special train,
Sunday morning, and interred in Cal-
vary Episcopal church yard there at
10:45 o’clock. Undertaker R. Greene
had charge of the body and accompa—
nied it to Tarboro, delivering it to the
undertaker there on arrival at that
town,

The pall bearers went from Green-
ville and were T, J. Jarvis, J. B, Cher-
ry, W. H. Long, L. f. Moore, W. L.
Brown and B, C. Pearce. A large
number of people accompanied the re-
mains from here to Tarboro and re~
turned on the special train in the after-
noon.

Sunday afternoon Rev. A. W. Set-

the Aged and Infirm. Besides the in-
mates of the Home, quite a number of
people in the neighborhood attended the
services. The inmates appreciated the’

visit them again.

The Reriector beiieves a pa

hold services in. ‘To give the inmates

Money is to commerce and business

than he paid tor them. Down went):

prices—down, down, down—and finally
he was forced to close his store for
want of purchasers. a4
Today bis store stands almost ex-
actly as it did thirty years ago. Itis
stocked with such goods as are usually
tound in, country stores, but, ot course,
the stock is now practically worthless.
Every day the old man opens up the
place to give it an airing. He is there,
too, for business, it any one choosas to
buy what he has to sell, and is willing
to pay what he asks,

_ “Why, sir,” he said to me, ‘some of
the calico I’ve got here cost me 69

fool to sell iv for 5 cents ?”—Chicago

of money issued by vhe United States
government from. the time of Washing-
ton’s alministration to the present does
not represent even & hundredth part of
the wealth of this country. The amount
of money which is 1 circulation is
- yastly more important than the amount
of money which is stored up in bank
vaults. To be ina healthy financial
condition a country must have its'mon-
ey in constant circulation, just the same
as the blood in the body must course
through the veins at a certain rapidity
in order to keep one in a state of
health. A $10 pill, for instance, if put
away ina crunk or somewhere el:e will
be tor the tims being a useless thing,

but if sent out to be circulated among |

tradesmen and farme’s and professional
people it will be the means of paying
hundreds ana thousands of dollars of
debts. Just think what a $10 bill can
_ do in a year, even if it be used only once
“@day, not including Sunday. It can
pay in that time debits ayggreguling
$3,130.

In illustration there is a story which

runs as follows: »

Mr. Brown kept boarders. Around
his table sat Mr. Brown, Mrs. Brown,
‘Mrs. Andrews, the village milliner; Mr.
Black, the baker; Mr. Jurdan, a car-
penter, and Mr. Hadley, a flour, feed

and lumber merchant.

Mr.Brown took out of his pocketbook

a $10 bill and handed it to Mrs. Brown
saying :

“Here, my dear, is $10 toward the

$20 I promised you.”

Mrs. Brown handed it to Mrs, An—

drews, saying :
That pays tor my new bonnet. ’

"Mrs. Andrews said to Mr. Jordan as

she handed him the bili:

“That will pay you for the work en} time of mar.iage, in the May Ladies’

my cuunter.”

Mr. Jordan handed it to Mr. Hadley, | and early years the children are more

H. L. Hall, a claim agent of this
place, is engaged in an enterprise that
hus created some comment. The negroes
are in great hopes over the prospects
presented to them. :

The matter is in the shape of a peti-
tion, which Hall has in charge and
which is being treely signed by the
colored people, both men and women.
In. brief, the petition is to be sent to
Washington to ask for a bill to be
presented to enable all the old slaves
to draw a bounty. It seems that some
years ago a bill was intro luced in
Congress for some such purpose, those
between 60 and 70 years old were to
receive $500 in cash and a monthly
payment of $'2, those between 50 and
60 were to get $400) and $10 a month,
and so on down the scale.
This beats in liberality the 40 acres
and @ mule that was confide..tly expect-
ed by the colored people just after the
war. The more intelligent colored
people do not approve of this scheme.
They know that it is all moonshine,and
that such an idea is as impossible of
realization as any project that could be
conceived of,
Now that peas need picking and
other work can be obtained in the
field, these poor, ignorant colored ones
ot the race should be left to pursue an

honest living instead of having rainbuw
colored visions held up before them to
creaze discontent and idleness. —New-
bern Journal.
