Complaints | tive woman on this notable occasion at old rock collegb. Speaking of the recent establish ment of a Normal School out at the old Bock College, a writer in the At lanta Herald has this to say : The Normal School oomnuesion did a commendable thing in planning to have the school at Athens open to girls as well as to boys. The intent of the law was certainly to make the school one for boys only. The au thor of the bill drew op his measure with that idea in view. He so stated at the time it was introduced. Yet the only indication of this is in the provision that tuition therein shall be free to white male students. The commission take this to mean that others than white male students must pay for tuition—a dollar a year or some other nominal sum, the Ax ing of which is left to them in the absence of any speciAc direction on that point. This ruling, which was arrived at in the Athens meeting few days ago, greatly changes the scope of prospective usefulness of the Normal School. This is a project that the teachers of the State should take an active interest in. At present there are only two funds available for its sup port. The Arst of these is the Gilo mer fund, $1,050 a year. That will all be expended in repairing, alter* ing and furnishing the buildings do nated by the State University. The other is only $500, the disposition of whioh is not yet yet decided upon. If help is extended out of the Pea body fund—as Commissioner Brad- well and Chancellor Boggs are hoping will be done—then the $500 will be added to the Peabody Fund contri bution and the school will straight way be put in operation, the length of the term depending on the amount of money at the disposition of the Commission. If nothing can be had except the $500 already secured, that will be spent in a summer “teachers’ insti tute.” The State’s.beginning on a Normal school was not on the generous scale that the importanco of the under taking merited—for the Legislature merely accepted the bdildings and grounds as a gift, and appropriated not one cent, giving it only the pres tige of being nominally a State in stitution—but the seed has been planted, and its development is only a matter of time. It may be all the better, in the long run, that the sohool was established on a remark' ably economic basis. o il features or the book are the wori. j one city .gainst .ootta-.

It now appears that Athens is eoon to have a new mail route to the North, the Georgia, Carolina and Northern having perfected arrange ments to bring the Government’s mail to this city. This ought to have befen done long before now, and would have been done but for the obstinate refusal oi the Post Office Department in Wash ington. The Georgia, Carolina and Northern railroad offered to carry the mail for the same rate of compensa tion that other railroads receive, but the Poet Office Department declined to pay it, because they claimed the road was new, and running through a new and undeveloped section of country the amount of mail would not warrant the expense. The Banner has shown the Injus* tice of such a course on the part of the Post Office authorities ail along, and with the assistance of Congress man T. G. Lawson and Ex-Con gressman H. H.

They are strangers in a strange land. Their interests are not in touch with the interests oi Georgia towns. They know but little of the people, and care but little for their demands. In many instances, in stead of being polite to passengers they are positively rude and unac commodating. Instead of checking baggage through to one place when asked, they are known right here in \he Athens office to check it to anoth er intermediate point and when asked to change it reply by instructing the passenger to have it changed when he reaches the intermediate atalior, thus putting the passenger to con siderable aDd unnecessary trouble.
