Public school books criticized in North Carolina

Wilmington column attacks the Affico-Presbyterian stance on state text books and the State Board of Education. It criticizes Maury’s readers, urges reform to remove political influence, and proposes a centralized plan with uniform textbooks and a state education system open to all. The piece also discusses tariff questions and a bishop consecration in North Carolina.

Bourbons, Prohibition, and politics in North Carolina era

The excerpt discusses North Carolina politics with Bourbon influence and anti-prohibition sentiment. It notes Democratic control, changes to electing county officials, and clashes over a prohibition law. It also references Gov Jarvis potentially repealing county government changes and anti-Bourbon cooperation with anti-prohibitionists to restore popular rule. It shifts to remarks on Guiteau and insanity expert Dr Gray, touching on motives, character, and the Paris Consulate remark context, then briefly mentions Congressman Blackburn and a Lynchburg court case involving a white boy charged with grand larceny.
