Gov. Northen was present with them during the day and made t heni a splendid speech, and his remarks were well received by the large crowd present. Commissioner Biadwell went over to Atlanta Wednesday and promised to bring the Governor back with him, and he redeemid his promise, Commissioner Brad well and Governor Xortlien arrived on the Georgia, Caro lina and Northern yesterday morning at 10:40 o’clock. At the depot they v ere met by Hon. H. C. Tuck, Presi- dent I. - B. Evans, Mr. J. B. Toomer, and Mr. T. W. Reed. Governor Northen was driven at once to Rock Culleg* behind lour of Barry’s finest steeds. The teachers cheered heartily upon his appearance The reception room would not begin to hold the crowd and hence quite a number did not get to hear Goy. Nor then’s address. Commissioner Bradwell in a few ap propriate words introduced Gov. Nor then to the teachers as the great friend of popular education in Georgia, whose interest in the teachers of the state was unbounded, and whose great est wish now is to build up the educa tional interests of the commonwealth; Gov. Northern said: Mr. Bradwell has been very faithful to carry out’ his promises toi; me that to do would be to look at your work,sad acre 1 lind that 1 am expected to make a speech. 1 csd say, however, that I am con fronted today by the grandest spectacle 1 have seen for forty years. Georgia has made great strides in her educa tional facilities,but this Normal school work is the grandest conception of them all. 1 am no new convert to this scheme on the statute book of Georgia for 1m7s-7‘J you will And a bill passed and made a law to establish a Normal school in Georgia. It failed in its es tablishment then, but I stand today in the full realization of the fondest of mj hopes that were expressed ia that bill o[ winch 1 bad the honor to be the au thor. The best people in Georgia are just these people 1 speak to today, and they are entrusted with a mighty work—that of training up the future citizens. The farmer looks to an increase in material pros perity and labors to make larger and better crops, all this being well and good. But you turn your attention to the development of the intellect and moral nature. The farmer has his har vests of wheat and corn,while you gath er as your results a harvest of citizens who exercising the gifts ef learning, made perfect under yiur training, take the lead in affairs of church and state government. There is no higher or better work than this which develops the intellect ami morals of the people. 1 have taken an interest in education because it is the base of every other in terest of the people. If the people are uneducated they fail in both material progress and government, and place themselves in a position where they fall &u easy prey to the demagogue. but what about this school. The Legislature has had a wrong idea of this subject, never thinking Normal train ing necessary. But it is necessary and the people know it. As a teacher, 1 could not teach by your methods for you have advanced and your methods are itnptoved. So in every department of life, improvement is the word, and es pecially to in educational matters. It is a mistaken idea that we don’t need b- If I want to make atin cup I must serve an apprenticeship at the trade, snd when we come to make a citizen they say it is necessary to serve the tern of apprenticeship. This school must bo noticed by the next General Assembly of Georgia, and who will push the movement in its iavor wish your help. When you go home talk to your Representative or Senator and sLow him the advantage tlist this session has given you. Me don’t want this movement - to fail »»<1 wo don’t intend it shall fail.' I bad tsther aoe this school go forward to *in*l triumph and success than any one enterprise ever started in Georgia. This is the highest profession known civilization, and my ambition is to *** it crowned with ultimate and laat- ln 8 triumph.” bov.

Northen wit nessed the lectures and recitations of the teacher 8 and pronounced the work being done as of a superior quality. At five o’clock the Governor returned to Atlanta, with most pleasing recollec tions of his visit. A Lecture Tonight. Tonight at the Rock College building Prof. Joseph T.

To the question wheth er he (Frick) had anything to do with famishing arms for tbe Pinkerton men, Mr. Frick oould not be prevailed upon to give a direct answer , but his replies amounted to an admission that lie had. Sheriff McClenry eaid tho people would not serve on his posse because they were afraid of being killed. This statement caused a general laugh, and Mr. Boatuer said the war feeling was not strong here. William Weihe, ex-president of the Amalgamated assooiatic-r., was examin ed. He was asked by Judge Taylor : "Was it not the object of these uisn, when they fought the Pinkertons, to prevent the mill being worked by non union men ? " * Well, that may have b«en the ob ject. 1 don’t know what it wsi " ." Well, I have little doubt that such was tbe case. ” said Judge Taylor. Weihe was asked if tbe association al ways carried ou$ its contract, and lie said yes. Chairman Oates said: "Is it not trne that after signing a scale the members of your association notified the compa ny that unless certain tilings were done in this controversy they would quit aud thus break their contract?" Well, I know some such thing was done. ” Hugh O’Donnell was called, and Mr. Oates said: "Now, Mr. O’Donnell, while we are not here to assume any thing, we wish to say that if the an swers to any questions we ask you may tend to cmninate you you may not an swer them. ” ■ Well, I’m not afraid, ” said O’Don nell.
