THE GRADED SCHOOL AGAIN.
We propose to notice as briefly as
we can the criticisms made by a
writer signing himself “An Advo
cate,” on a recent editorial in this
paper. With a proper appreciation
of the kindness of the said writer in
overlooking our “strong language
and flights of rhetoric,” we take his
criticisms in order.
1. Advocate is ready to assent, it
seems, to our proposition that a
graded school is not needed here, if
he could be assured that our present
schools were putting the chances of
education within the reach of every
child in town. Readmits, that under
ordinary circumstances, it is the
duty of the parent to provide for the
education of his children, and he
agrees with us that any man who has
a proper appreciation of his obliga
tion to his children, may pay the
charges for tuition in our schools,
provided he has health and some
other requisites. But it frequently
happens that some one of these re
quisites is wanting and occasionally
Yf? find a man who has not the proper
appreciation.
Now’, we should like to ask Advo
cate what assurance he can give us
that a graded school will reach every
child in town? If we understand
the plan on whish the schools in
Gaffney are managed, they are al
ready absolutely free during a portion
of the year, if not to all grades, at
least to primary grades. Do they
reach all of the children entitled to
free tuition during the months that
they are open? According to Advo
cates own testimony the schools are
“adequate in number and efficiency.”
And yet he declares further that
“the school books showr only a small
percentage of the school population
on the rolls.”
Whftt i? the matter, and what rea
son is there for supposing that a
graded school will reach these chil
dren that are not now reached by
free tuition? Will the graded school
do more than offer free tuition?
Will it pay out premiums in money
to those who will honor it with pat-
ronage?
Aside from the novelty which may
.attach to a graded school and which
may have some attractions at first,
there is no palpable reason why it
will reach tke class of children that
the schools thus far have failed to
reach, as it can offer no greater in
ducements than they offer during
their free terms. Regard for consis
tency then will demand that Advo
cate abandon this plea.
But there are exceptional cases, he
«ays—an occasional man here and
there who deserves help, and there
fore we should vote the tax for a
graded school.
We do not doubt the truth of his
premise. We are ready partially to
adopt his conclusion. If ho will ex
hibit these exceptional and occasional
cases and they prove to be worthy
ones, we shall be ready any day to
▼ote a tax for their benefit, but not
a tax that shall benefit equally
at the same time the vast majority,
who, according, to Advocates own
admission do not need any help. Ex
ceptions are beyond the province of
legislation, except in the way w»
have indicated. The watchword of
democratic government is the great
est good to the greatest number.
There is one fact that Advocate
overlooks in his argument, and that
is that universal, literary and scien
tific education is impossible. The
Creator himself has fixed the limits
and man cannot go beyond them.
We find the decree in the fact that a
large number of children are either
from enfeebled intellects or mental
bias, incapable ot acquiring it, even
tinder the most favorable circum
stances. These are to be found
among the rich as well as the poor.
The whole free school system takes
It for granted that all are equally ca
pable.
2. We think we have shown as
conclusively as argument can show
anything that a graded school is not
needed in Gaffney. Then it would
seem useless to discuss Advocate’s
second criticism. If it is not needed
then any time would bo inopportune.
Wt tried to show in our former arti
cle, that even in case the graded
school was needed, it would be wise
to defer the establishment of one
until a more propitious time. But
Advocate thinks this is the right
time because taxes aro“not altogether
oppressive”und there is a vast amount
of property that will begin to pay
taxes in 1902, for which other enter
prises can wait. Is it desirable that
taxes should become “altogether op
pressive?” If not, cun the fact that
they are not now so, be construed
into a shadow of a reason why this is
an opportune time? Advocate knows
a sister town that is carrying a bur
den of 284 mills cheerfully. So we
know several individuals who we
think are spending money recklessly,
taking upon themselves burdens
which we should deem useless,
and all with apparent cheerfulness.
But such examples do not impress
us with the desirableness of our do
ing likewise.
We suppose the 281 mill tax re
ferred to is entirely municipal. Add
to that the State and county taxes
and you will have a tax of about 45
mills. That is per cent., 14 per
cent, above the rate of interest
charged by the Bank of England, 2
per cent, above the rate of money on
call in New York. Will any think
ing man say that under present con
ditions any town or country can long
pay such a tax as that, when fully
three-fourths of the people do not
make 44 per cent, annually on their
capital? But we must not stop till
taxes become “altogether oppres-
BiYe.'’
3. It see ns that we were entirely
mistaken as to the purpose of the
proposed 3-mill tax. We did not en
joy the privilege of reading the peti
tion and have been seeing through a
glass darklj. Now we have light.
The 3-mill tax is just to pay interest
on bonds and to constitute a sinking
fund. By and by there is to be a
reduction in the levy, when the
school buildings are all paid for and
the sinking fund has grown beauti
fully large.
In other words the money is to be
borrowed with which to found, equip
and operate the school. How igno
rant we were when we thought the
school was to be run on the annual
tax, and mildly suggested that the
tax would not be sufficient! The tax
is just to pay a little interest and
create a pretty little sinking fund.
Xbat is all. The expenses of the
system will not be felt, because the
money is all borrowed. How beauti
ful it all works on paper!
We have only to say that we have
known many individuals to deceive
themselves by just such reasoning,
and the penalty, though delayed,
was none the less sure, and we see
□o reason why business principles
should not be the same whether ap
plied to individuals or to towns.
“There is no thought of leaving
the negroes out. We must not for
get that they are entitled to the
poll tax and their pro rata share &c.”
And, while we are in the remem
bering business, it might be well not
to forget that they already get their
poll tax and their pro rata share of
the constitutional 8-mill tax, and
hence all that they can contribute to
a system of graded schools in addi
tion to what they are already using,
is the amount raised by the proposed
3-raill tax on their property. We
have no facilities at hand for know
ing the amount of property in Gaff
ney on which they pay taxes. But
we know in a general way that it is
comparatively very pmall. We
doubt if a 3-mill tax on it would
raise money enough to have a class
instructed in Webster’s old blue
back spelling book.
4. As Advocate and we both have
admitted that we do not know how
many good citizens might be brought
to the town, there is no ground here
for argument. He says all that an
average family would get from the
graded school, from a monetary
standpoint, would hardly exceed $30
a year, while such a family would
put into circulation anywhere from
$200 to $1,000 a year.
We merely suggest that a family
able to put into circulation that
amount of money, is able to pay the
$30 tuition, and on every principle of
justice should do it.
5. “The graded school is the expo
nent of progress and enlightenment
and does not tend to paternalism any
more than does governmental protec
tion.” It is strange what an influ
ence mere words cau have over
thought. We believe it was Bacon
that said, “men think that they have
command of language while language
has command of them.” There are
too kinds of progress, one up and the
other down, oie towards the right
the other towards the wrong, and the
latter is usually the easier and more
rapid. Before wo shout for progress
let's be eure of the kind.
Advocate is unfortunate in assum
ing that the quasi protection afforded
by government to life and property,
tends as much to paternalism as free
education. The two cases are neither
analogous nor parallel. They differ
widely on the very point essential to
the argument. One of the primary
objects of government is to give se
curity to life and property, and as
every man lias the benefit of such
protection as the government can
furnish he ought to contribute in
proportion to his means to the ex
penses of that government. That is
even-handed justice; no more, no
less. But how can government,
state or municipal, protect the minds
ol the children against ignorance?
Ignorance is a nonentity, a negative
quantity, a nothing. How can you
protect anybody against a nothing?
Purely Advocate doesn’t see clearly
at this point what it is he is advo
cating. If his policeman will come
around and work our gardens, build
our fires with his own wood, and feed
and curry our horses, then the two
cases will bo more nearly parallel
and will both equally smack of pater
nalism.
0. The graded school is a success
wherever tried. Yes. so has small
pox been a partial success in Atlanta
and a rousing success in Birmingham,
and we have all been afraid that it
would prove a success in the country
at large. Good often succeeds slowly
and with difficulty, if it succeeds at
all; evil will as often reach a success
at one bound. Success is no proof of
merit.
7. We have no fears whatever of
the effects of a graded school on
Cooper-Limestone Institute. We
hope that no one will for a moment
suspect that we have written from
any motive of self-interest. Cooper-
Limestone does not look to Gaffney
for support. If it did it could not
live a week. During the seventeen
years of its existence, its patrons in
Gaffney have been few. We do not
write this in a spirit of complaint.
We have many warm personal friends
in Gaffney whom we highly appreci
ate, and if we have a single personal
enemy we don’t know where to locate
him. There have been good schools
in Gaffney all the time that met the
general demand, and it was not to he
expected, except under special cir
cumstances, that the citizens would
send their daughters to Limestone, a
mile and a half out of town. So
there need be no fears on that score.
Just one more fact: The graded
school is an offshoot of Yankee civil
ization which is hastening to its fall.
Advocate tells of what is done in
Massachusetts, and sees no evil re
sults. We think we can see that the
iniquitous protective tariff that fat
tens millionaires with one hand and
crushes the toiling masses with the
other, is burn of the same spirit that
gave birth to the free schools of
New England. We think we can see
further that the restless wave of so
cialism and communism that is beat
ing against the very foundation of
the government, is a later child of
the same mother.
But we shall not discuss this sub
ject further, neither shall we attempt
to write another extended review’ of
anybody’s criticism. We have the
argument, and all the sophistry in
the world cannot overthrow it. But
argument avails nothing against the
wild surges of this socialistic age.
We have only obeyed the dictates of
conscience in uttering a protest.
ENTRIES FROM OUR DAY BOOK.
We hear a great deal about the
evils of ignorance. Ignorance may
be the ground in which evils germi
nate, but ignorance itself is not an
evil.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
The hardest condition in life al
ways has some compensation. The
present scarcity of money is not an
exception. Under its pressure our
people will practice severer economy
and be aroused to greater activity.
These will soon produce a reaction
which will bring with it better times.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
The gubernatorial bee is kept busy.
Senators Archer, Col. Schumpert and
Col. R. B. Watson are all candidates,
and Gov. Ellerbe stands for ro-elec-
tion. We do not endorse all that
Gov. Ellerbe has done, but we give
him credit for honest intentions, and
believe that he has done about the
best that he could do under circum
stances.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
A him, has passed its third reading
in the lower house of the Legislature
compidling all children in the state
to attend school eight weeks in the
year. After the passage of this bill,
the Legislature need enact only one
more law on the subject of education,
and that is one making it a misde
meanor for any more children to be
born in South Carolina without
minds capable of cherishing a healthy
ambition for a free school education.
The demand for the services of the
fool killer is on the increase.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
The broad tire is coming. There
is a bill before the Legislature which
proposes to introduce it by 1902.
We believe that the broad tire should
and will come with macadamized
roads, and when the state shall have
given us such roads it will have the
right to require the broad tire. But
we do not see much advantage in it,
especially to the up country, at this
time. True it will not sink bo deep
with the same load, but when a
broad tire wheel does go down to the
hub in stiff Piedmont mud, what
then? You may unhitch your mules
and pitch your camp.
Education does not necessarily
consist of book learning. The fact is
books are a means to the acquiring
of an education and not the end.
Many highly educated men know
very little about books. They have
obtained an education along other
roads.
On the other hand, many know a
great deal about books and have very
little education.
The great barons of England who
wrested from King John the great
charter which is now the corner
stone of constitutional liberty
throughout the civilized world, were
unable to sign their names to the pa
per.
There is much indignation felt over
the acquittal of Newbold. We do
not think that the general sentiment
of our people demanded that he
should be hanged, but it did demand
that he should be punished.
A year ago daggers killed Owens
in Gaffney under circumstances that
clearly indicated that the killing was
accidental. But the accident was
the result of criminal carelessness,
and daggers was sent to the peniten
tiary for three years.
Newbold shoots down an innocent,
inoffensive citizen under circum
stances far less palliating or excusa
ble, and when he is brought to trial,
prominent men from all parts of the
state come to testify for him, the
moral power, at least, of the admin
istration is exerted in his behalf, the
jury is overawed and the slayer of an
innocent citizen is turned loose
without even a reprimand. Every
such miscarriage of justice bears its
legitimate fruit in diminished respect
for law and increased contempt for
its processes and machinery.

Repose of Manner.
“Yes,” paid n distingakbed gentle
woman who is keenly etndions of the
life around her despite hor crown of
silver hair, “I see a great advance in
this generation so far as concerns educa
tion and its results. But as to manners,
I confess I perceive » falling off. I do
not always find, even in tho highest cir
cles, the true courtesy and fine grace
that belonged to the best people of the
past generations. Tho young people of
today are conscious of their intellectual
advantages and their superior capabili
ties. The sense of this makes them a lit
tle bit too self satislied and indcpendi nt,
less anxious to propitiate and phase.
This results either in an offhand famil
iarity cr a critical reserve and indiffer
ence. ”
“The repose of manner” which is
supposed to characterize “thorough
breds” is a pleasure to contemplate in
kindly, intelligent, unaffected members
of society, but it approaches idiocy
when it means an icy absorption in self
and an utter absence of interest in tho
rest of tho human race. Save us from
the repose of manner that requires hu
man beings to sit in immobile nonenti
ty, like the wax figures in a shop win
dow, with tho gauze of “high breeding
and reserve” to gnard them from tho
dust and flies of mediocrity!
There is a reposo of manner which
comes from the consciousness of being
in tho right place aud doing the right
thing by necessity. There is another
W’bich is the outcome of gentleness of
nature, sweetness of temper and habit
ual self control. Now aud then wo meet
ono to whom these perfect manners aro
as natural aud spontaneous as fragrance
to a flower. Then we realize after
awhile, if not at first, that this charm
of manner is more captivating than
beauty or intellect. When united with
loveliness of person, fine sense and cul
tured mentality, the combination is ir
resistible aud constitutes the flower of
huma.nkind.—Humanitarian.
