Dear Young Friends: Good
mirning to you all. I am so pleased
that our Department is improving.
I see two letters from one P. O. I
know the Editor is not crowded out
this time. Though I am a young
man still I take pleasure in enter
taining the '-little ones." I read,
with interest, "The Martlett Seal"
and Children's Corner. I will be
pleas d ts correspond with some of
the young readers of The Cauca
sian' for improvement in penman
ship aud composition. I will ask a
question; Which is the best paper
published in Xorth Carolina? Who
is the best speaker? What Democrat
in Xorth Carolina voted to repeal
the Sherman bill? Xow, young
friends, let's go to work and double
the circulation of one of the best pa
pers in the State, viz. The Cauca
sian. You, in the near future, will
hold the reins and make the laws of
this nation. Educate in the knowl
edge of truth, aud strive to win an
honored name.
