NOTICE,
All parties who are in arrears for
subscription to the Daily or Weekly
Enquirer-Sun are requested to settle
np at once. It is necessary that these
arrearages should be paid before
the 1st of January, as we desire
to enter the new year with oar
books free from old indebtedness.
This will be satisfactory to the sub
scribers, whose number we are glad to
Bay is limited, who are in arrears, as
well as to the management. The season
has been prosperous, and we have no
dpubt that many have failed to pay up
arrearages simply from the habit of pro
crastination. We hope they will respond
promptly to this request, and clear up
their accounts before the close of the
present month.
PUBLIC EDUCATION IN THE SOUTH.
Commissioner of Education Dawson in
his annual report makes an interesting
exhibit of the difficulties under which
the public school systems of the South
labor, and of the success with which the
South is struggling under the load of il
literate citizenship placed upon it by the
fifteenth amendment of the Federal Con
stitution. The 2.1 per cent, by which the
enrollmentof pupils in the public schools
of the Union exceeds in the last decade
the growth of population is due entirely,
Mr. Dawson states, to the progress of the
South. Since 1876-77 the increase of en
rollment in the South has been 70 per
cent., and the increase of expenditure 90
per cent. The public schools of the
South have been immensely developed
“with funds,” Mr. Dawson states, “fur
nished mainly by the white inhabi
tants.” The negroes of the South, he
shows, are being educated “by the sons
of their former masters.” Separate
schools have been found necessary there,
but an element that pays little or no
taxes gets an equal Bhare of the school
funds of the States .The expense of sup
porting double schools is a heavy bur
den, that bears with particular severity
on a sparse agricultural population not
well provided with money. “As the re
sult,” says the report, “of endeavoring to
maintain two parallel systems of schools,
one for their owl, children and one for
the colored beneficiaries, the people of
the south have only been able to keep
their schools open on an average of nine
ty days, as against one hundred and
fifty-seven days in the Northeastern
Scates.” Mr. Dawson is of opinion that
it would be highly improper for the Fed
eral Government to attempt to exercise
any control over the common schools of
the State. They are, he declares, a mat
ter “ of purely domestic concern, not to
be trenched upon by the general govern
ment.” That aid given to the States in
the education of the colored people
would “ pauperize” them he does not be
lieve, but if aid is given it should not
carry with it Federal supervision or con
trol of the schools aided. About 64 per
cent of the white population of school age
in the South is enrolled, as against 53
per cent of the colored school popula
tion. In all discussions of the conditions
affecting public education in this country
the necessity the South i3 under to main
tain two separate school systems should
ever, Mr. Dawson thinks, be kept in
mind.
We argee fully with Mr. Dawson in his
views in regard to the impropriety of
Federal supervision or interference with
the public schools of the South, and we
shall oppose to the last any measure
which has that tendency. The subject
is one of vast interest to our people and
Commissioner Dawson presents its many
features in a &tyle that will attract atten
tion.
Did we hear any one inquire “Who is
Brewer?”
Mr. Harrison has a rare talent for
bringing obscure men to the front.
Speaker Reed is said to bear a striking
resemblance to Shakspeare in personal
appearance. The resemblance then stops.
A subscriber in writing to request a
change of address pleasantly remarks ;
“We cannot do without the Enquirer-
Sun.”
The Pope Manufacturing Company
has just issued their annual Columbia
.Bicycle Calendar, convenient, valuable
and unique for table or desk. The
Enquirer-Sun acknowledges receipt of
one of the neat little articles.
Tomorrow week will be a lively day in
Columbns. The City Council have made
all arrangements necessary for the mu
nicipal election, and every registered
Yoter will have fill opportunity to de
posit his little ballot.
The American flag is now under dis
cussion. The admission of four new
States adds four stars, and it is proposed
to make a five-pointed star with two in
the center over the blue field. This
would be neat and better than having
six rows of seven stars each.
An Ohio paper prints the following
notice under the heading “Obituaries:”
"William Jones, of Malta township, aged
eighty-three, passed peacefully away on
Tuesday last from single blessedness to
matrimonial bliss, after a short but
sudden attack by Alice Blossom, a bloom
ing widow of twenty-five.”
We understand now why Mr. Harrison
so zealously guarded his message from
the newspapers. He was afraid if they
had time to review it carefully few of
them would have printed it. So he kept
it a secret until, the last moment, and
then let it go flashing over the wires
without giving time to consider it before
it had to go in type.
The recent terrible affair in Birming
ham, which resulted in the death of a
popular, youDg physician, is directly
traceable to the cowardly habit of carry
ing concealed weapons. The pistol was
too handy. Birmingham owes it to her
good name to demand that full justice be
meted out in this case. There does not
appear to have been the least justification
for this horrible murder.
TOO MUCH SECTIONALISM.
HEBE IS A CHANGE FOB COLUMBUS.
The Enquibzr Sun has professed its
belief in the value and benefit to Colum
bus of aistrong,influential Board of Trade,
and has been zealous in its advocacy of
the movement to increase the member
ship of the organization. That move
ment has been a gratifying success, and
Columbus has a board now which, nu
merically and in influence, is second to
none in any city of its size in the country.
We have contended that opportunities
are liable to occur frequently when the
power and action of this board can be
invoked to the great advantage of the
city. One is now upon ns, and is brought
to our attention in a communication
from “A New Member,” which makes the
following suggestions:
“Would it not be a good idea for our
Board of Trade to take some prompt of
ficial action to bring the many advan
tages of Coiambus as a manufacturing
point before the burned out shoe manu
facturers of Lynn, Mass?”
A number of these manufacturers are re
ported to be in Norfolk looking for a loca
tion, and as our correspondent “A New
Member,” says, “we know that we can
compete with Norfolk or any other point
in the many things that go to make up a
desirable manufacturing locati n, but the
people of Lynn, Mass., don’t know it,
and it seems to me that is one of the
purposes of the Board of Trade.”
“New Member” in our judgment is cor
rect in his supposition that this is a
matter of which the Board of Trade can
properly take cognizance, and the fact
that he has been so quick to appreciate
this opportunity for advancing the claims
of Coiumbus is indicative of a lively in
terest in the Board. If all the new mem
bers are inspired by the same spirit of
enterprise and progress the future of the
Board of Trade is bright indeed, and Co
lumbus will be correspondingly bene-
fitted. The Enquirer-Sun commends
the suggestion to the careful considera
tion of the Board, which with even its
limited numbers in the past has accom
plished much good work for the city,
and would urge that prompt and prac
tical action be taken in the p emises.
It is natural to suppose that two such
prosperous papers as the Chicago Inter-
Ocean and the Tribune have the support
of the people of Chicago, and in a large
measure represent their sentiments, and
yet there is not a more bitter partisan or
sectional paper in the country than the
Inter-Ocean. The Tribune is almost
as virulent. These papers, however, ask
for the support of the South in securing
the World’s Fair for that city, while never
omitting an opportunity to slander and
malign the Southern people and indulge
in brutal remarks about the dying Chief
tain at Beauvoir. There are djubtless
many people in Chicago who do not ap
prove of such utterances; at the same
time they give princely support to the
papers which give them publicity. Even
thePress of New York, which is the most
pronounced partisan of the Republican
party, has never displayed such bitter
sectional spirit as have these Chicago
papers. New York is more liberal, and
the press and people of that city have
apparently forgotten the auimosities of
the war. New York has always been
friendly to the South. It does not make
any material difference to the South
where the fair is held, at the same
time we do not think there should under
the circumstances be expected of the
South any very cordial endorsement of
Chicago. We are really weary of seeing
in the columns of her leading papers
these mean and contemptible slurs upon
our section.
A company, of Hollanders, which has
been growing celery in Michigan, finds
the industry amplifying, so they now
propose to buy up large sections of the
New Jersey swamps and to turn them
into celry fields. The success which has
attended the great celery farm near
Wellington, Ohio, visited by the Georgia
editon in September last, will, it is
thought, stimulate the industry in the
Backeye State,
This item of Georgia news we clip
from the columns of the Charleston
News and Courier:
"Judge Mark Blandford, of the Geor
gia Supreme Bench, is a firm believer in
the zodiac signs. He lost an arm at the
battle of McDowell, Va., in May, 1862,
and he declares that he and every other
soldier who got wounded in the arm in
that combat recovered, while all the leg
wounds proved mortal. He Bays he had
occasion to take particular notice of that
fret.”
ANOTHER CASHIER OFF FOR CANADA'
Prohibition prohibits with a ven
geance, so to speak, in the pretty little
town of Anniston over in Alabama.
That is it prohibits the sale of whisky,
but does not prohibit its citizen from
getting drunk. What produces the in
toxication when the sale of beer and
whisky is prohibited, and the assertion
is made thafrthe law is rigidly enforced
in the “Model City,” it is difficult to un
stand. The following record of the po
lice court of Monday taken from the
Anniston Evening News, shows more
cases of drunkenness at one session than
is the case in Columbus in a week, and
yet there is no prohibition here. This is
the record:
Mark Bowling for being drunk and
disorderly, was assessed $3.50; Tom Ford,
drunk, $12.50; Wm. Evitt, drunk, $10;
Joe Goss, disorderly, $2 50; J. H. Mor
mon, disorderly, $5; John Lanier, drunk,
$10; Andrew Gibson, drunk, $10; B. M.
Jenks, drunk, $10; Geo. Heiman, drunk,
$10; T. McPullen, drunk and disorderly,
$13.50; Louis Emmedson, drunk and dis
orderly, $12.50; Wiley Coker, disorderly,
$2.50.
Anniston might make a better show
ing for’sobriety if she bad high license
and effective restrictions thrown around
the liquor traffic which would strangle
he “blind tigers.”
The startling discovery was made at
Washington yesterday that Edward Sil
cott, caehier of the Sergeant-at-Arms of
the House of Representatives, had fled
to Canada, carrying with him about
$72,000 of the funds entrusted to his
care. It seems that Silcott was a trusted
employe, and had held his position for
six years. He was a good business man,
and soon possessed himself of the unlim
ited confidence of his superior officer,
Sergeant-at-Arms Leedom.
Saturday he notified Leedom that he
was going to New York on business.
Before leaving he went to the Treasury
and drew $72,000, which he took with
him. Silcott did not return Monday
night, and Leedom became suspicious
that something was wrong, and investi
gated Siicott’s accounts with the above
result. The dispatches from Washing,
ton state that there was considerable
excitement among some of the Congress
men, which was only quieted by the
assurance that there was enough money
left in the treasury to pay their salaries.
Silcott iB an Ohio man.
So startled were the able members of
the House, in fact, that no business
could be transacted after the announce
ment of the defalcation. The House
hurriedly appointed a committee to in
vestigate the embezzlement and then
adjourned, many probably going down
to the Shoreham House to console them
selves at Morton’s bouffe.
Speaker Reed appointed two or three
committees yesterday, and placed our
Congressman, Hon. Tom Grimes, on the
committee on accounts. This is a very
important committee, and shows that
Mr. Grimes is recognized as one of the
leading members of the House of Repre
8entatives.

members of Congress will have to tend

mighty slim that they’ve got to have

WOOLDRIDGE WONDERFUL CUBE
W. W. C. Co., Columbu3, Ga.
Gentlemen: Last April I
took yellow jaundice, which
lasted me six months. During
that time I was not fit for work.
I took all sorts of remedies
and consulted two doctors, bat
neither seemed to give me re
lief. I also had rheumatism,
was hardly able to turn in bed,
when, hearing of what won
derful cures W. W. C. was
making, I decided to try it on
my case of jaundice and rheu
matism, and am happy to say
that two bottles cured me. It
worked like magic in my case,
I am entirely well now and feel
better than I have for many years.
I believe W. W. C. to be the best
family medicine on the market to
day. Yours very gratefully,
A. J. COKER.
The Wooldridge Wonderful Cure Company.
