THE CHARLOTTE NEWS.. FEBRUARY 8, 1906 The Charlotte News k Published Daily (Except Sunday) NEWS PUBLISHING COMPANY. W. C. DOWD Pres. and Gen. Mgr. C. A. MATTHEWS City Editor THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 8, 1906. Congressman Longworth insists that hair does not make the man. When the Czar goes a day un bombed he grows optimistic and fan cies that the ordeal is over. : We are beginning to believe that the advent of the ground hog the other day "shouldn't count." 'Spose b,e try it over. It couldn't be worse. Another railroad wreck was reported yesterday. They happen almost every day. An investigating committee may yet be-necessary. The ground hog may be a prevarica tor to a certain degree, but sure it is he is not a liar altogether, for at least, part of his prediction has come to pass. . ' Several thousand troops from the United States are on their way to the Philippines. Does that mean another human sacrifice upon the altar of Im perialism? Divine Sarah is billed to appear at Asheville. When they are dealing out freaks and wonders, Asheville is al ways sitting in the front row, with mouth agape. There is always a little good to somebody in ,most all kinds of evil. Major Breese was at 'least benefitted by one man's failure to pay his taxes, although scores were forced to suffer, that he might rejoice. Mrs. Cassie Chadwick has been made overseer of the laundry depart ment of the penitentiary. Since she has demonstrated herself to be somewhat of an adept in getting all there is out of a thing, she will probably turn out good work. ' Those who failed' to see the basket ball game last night at the Y. M. C. A. between Wake Forest College and the Y. M. C. A. team are the loosers. and missed one of the neatest and cleverest displays of pure and healthful athletics seen here in some' time. It's reachins a poor state of affairs when a man can defraud thousands of the people's money and go scot free, simply because one of the grand jury had failed to pay his taxes. It appears to us that the recent decision, allowing Major Breese to go absolutely free, on a charge of defrauding thousands of the honest peoples' money is a shame to the laws of the land and a disgrace to justice and right. Governor Glenn stated yesterday em phatically that he "was not implicated in the Republican imbroglio in this State. The, Governor explained why he was for Holton. but made it clear that he was not connected with the faction al strife of the party. We did not think the Governor was mixed in the .chaos, but it does seem that some good Sa maritan should rise to the occasion as a peacemaker. It seems that that qual ity has become a dead issue with Mr. Roosevelt since his little fete at Portsmouth. A dispatch to the St. Louis Republic states that Russia is thinking of going into the insurance business. Shades of the royal Jester! What next? Russia will probably only be interested in the life insurance branch, since it might be a little hard to get -a company to in sure property. There is one thing which is evident, judging from recent history, an investigating committee in that Empire would be a little more strenuous in their manner, of proceedure than some investigating committees in this country, although they seem to be very nearly the limit.

"Ain't that enough to frost the crops?" asked Speaker Cannon. when he heard about it- 10-4 Lockwood at Pillow Casing WOMAN BROOMS A MAD DOG. THE HAZING MUDDLE. With Congress trying to make rigid laws against hazing at Annapolis and with the Academy officials trying to get rid of those guilty and purge the institution of all forms of deviltry the news comes with small grace that the President has now risen to the point of order and is calling for suavity. It is stated that over thirty midship men will have to be expelled if the 'present rigid course is followed. We are rather inclined to the opin ion of Congressman Kitchin who said the custom of hazing should be elimi nated from the institution if every cadet and every member of the fac ulty had to be expelled. What difference if there are thirty who must be expelled if the investiga tion continues? If there are .thirty guilty of the barbarous custom then we say give them their walking papers at once.
