They do ' nc soom to think or have any regar Jor tho over-burdened tax-payc and the poor man when they me< to make laws, for they waste great deal of money in killir time, doing nothing, and are voi extravagant. inl appropriations. Oi true-bluo Reformer hit the nail the head the other day in the Hou when he said tle Roform legiol tures wore more extravagant thi tihe pre(din g ones, for under V old regomie they made all the lai they nooded and mor' too in thir days, but, under the Reform 8( sions they <id nothing inl for days.

The dispesar i* ll s wvil be die cussed this week. Thero are thre or four anmd all difieront in miaterim resp~o'ts. 'lhore are somo who war to abolish the State Board of Coi trol and others who do not. TI ar'gunient is all oni the Bide of n<n abolishing it, for the reason that should be kept out of politics, ar> if the hoard as nowv constituted, abolishedl it will have to be put i: to tho hands of State officials wi is a very dangerous procedure. we have to have a State Boord Control let it be of men who net depend on popular elections the position. Several countios .are adopti the Pickens county governmc law which was enacted last yes Greenville aind Loxington have len into line in adopting the th cominiissioner system with egq power and doinig away with township commissioners and making tho commutation tax Oconeo county last year ropea her conmmutatdion tax and p)ut fi days work on the roadI hands there is great dissatisfaction w it over- there. Nowry had to corporate herself to keep her ha. off the roads. The Pickens de gation do not claim -that the for Pickons county is the best t: cani be made or -is perfect, but il carrying out of what they discus on the stumlp in thie last primi election anid is what they beaies the people wanted and so gave ii themn. They are not disposed change the law until it has b tried, when, if it proves a faili or inadequante it can be chaniged meet the needs and demands of pecple. We arec trying to do1 best we can for the whole people *Speaking of County Governm a measure will bo imtrodnaod i week'to requiro the Qiok~t Jlidj 'to send all convicts for' teni ~ye and less to the counly chain Man and that if any Supervisor in t State wants additional convicts work on the eublic roads are pu ho works can get them from t 8$Pate penitentiary for $4 r - nonthi This would gradual State fartm and ib just wthat We* need. Such a measure I think will pass the House, bit the Senate may kill it. If we could sell the Y. State farmns and put the convicts - out on the public roads we would tr in a few years have the finest sys a ten of roads in the Snth. The good roads problei would be holved. And I think the people , are generally coming to this idea. It seems to be the prevailing senti .iout of the House. IIBUCATIuNALO y CONDUCTED BY W. W. V. BRIGHT, County Sunt. of Education. 0 _ Troaeiees* Records. 0 Trustees' Records are being sent y-to the clerk of the board as fast as possible. Trustees aro requested to read the instructions therein 0 from the State Superintendent, and a to comply with the same as far as pORsiblo. Those Records are to take the< place of the Annual Report of the , trustoos at the end of the school Y year and must be returned to the t( County Superintendent by the 80th " of June. d In them will be found pay war r rants, original and duplicate. Ink s )t should be used in making out all t a warrants. The clerk of the board i must sign on the line below the 1 cortificato that he has8 mado the a mn proper onLy on the District Record o se book.

W r School committees and commun t itios sometimes seom to be possess. 0, . 0d of iln insano desire to change W y teachors merely for the 'sake of lh I changing. The teacher's actions C are frequently governed by the same spirit. They go from one o place to another simply for the v, - sake of chauge and because they I have taught at the old place a year h' or two or three. It is hard to un gdorstand why a teacher who has Ls anyl faith inl his own puriposes or se a~ any con)fidenco iln his own ability lil . should not wish to be his own suc ncosso)r from year to yeCar, build up. on his own foundation and reap y~ -e the fruit of his own sowing. We t believe the best teachers never de. c( Ssire to change their plaCO except C* 'for better pay, better opportunity J for self-imiprovemeont, opportuniity o Cor b.roader work, or some equally st a worthy object. They are the shift .less ones who are always shifting h and never rising; committees should a beware of them. I When a community has once se cured a good teacher it should - keep him as long as possible. Be he Democrat, Republicaln or Popn tlist; Methodist, Baptist, Presbyte- Z i- rin, Episcopalian, Lutheran, ~ Le Friend, or any one of th(, more10 Sthan thirty religious sects in oui f (state; related by blood or marriage is to any or all of the peollo in comn a- munity, or to none of them, Dlh none of these things shouldl ever be Uthought of in emplloying a new do teacher or in keeping an old one. or They are all personal matters and shlould never be considered by com ng mnittoeomen acting in their official r. capiacity. Neither should parents .al- expect or desire their children to be re taught by teachers of their own ial political, religious or family faith. the In most cases it is p~robably better they should not be so taught. led They will likely be Bufliciontly nar >ur row, prejudiced and conceited with und out such teaching. Thue only quos thtions to be asked by committee. de rnen or community are: Are you he. a moral, upright, manly man, or aw womanly woman? Can you teach? ['at Whatsoever question is more thain Ii t this probaubly comneth of evil. edBy all ni~n avoid changing ex ed cept whnit is cranyou aeget to a better teacher. It takes a yeari to or two for a teacher to beogin to ~en learni the character and needs of all rthe childreu of a strange commu the nity, and he cannot begin to do his he best work until lhe knows (him. Thue itinerant plan is not a good mit one for either teachere or schools. North Garolina Journal of Educa. ire tionl. go, '- +~ lhe --J E. Lebby, fromn Calhoun, to was hero Tulesday on business.
