We are glad to put the municipal ticket Dominated Thursday night at the head of our editorial column. Comments on or analysis of its sev eral par ia unneceesiry. It is a 'ticket strong and good, and as a I ! j whole culd hardly be equalled and 'j I surely not excelled in the town. It is peculiarly pleasing to feel that our election will most probably come off next Tueday without a jar, and our town government will be in the hands of men broad minded, progressive and wise as it is possible to find, and that our school interests will ba managed by friend of education to whom we can confide without tear that the bes. interests of the children will not ba subserved. Yes, we are greatly pleased with the results of the town convention. The News ea,s Gen. Eagan passed through Charlotte Thursday morn ing. A representative from that journal got the pleasant.

The great G.orgia tragedy is fresh in the minds of the people and ii commented lupoi with expressions of great horror . It eeems as to practical purposes a waste of energy to denounce lynchs ing for at leat the one usual provo -1 - it"- - ! cation.! It is but an instinct- of manhood, for tne more thorough protection of the more dependent sex. that a flagrant case where the identity of the criminal is ul ques tioned, to dash the life out of tbe yile wretch. Thi I s we cannot con demn while holding close in the ems brace of the Jbosom's deep affections the immage of a Tamar in the ruin of all a woman8 sense of purity, but we want the power to instill in to the minds of our peop'e the difn ference between iut retribution and savage reyenge. of instances where We can conceive we would approve quick retributive justice in killing a vile wretch prepared or unprepared for eternity,5 and, while we feel that such illegal proceedure has some- thing of justification in old testa ment law and very much in well constituted manhoodj it should fully satisfy every demand of refined hu manity to kill without torture or mutilation. Let him who tortures or mutilates the wretch remember that he is stepping beyond the proper bounds and jis f st approaching the inhuman in jirhich rank he finds his victim, j The "death penalty should be free from special torture.

The Portland Express says: The ageofchiy airy must be pretty well past. The , other day Governor Roosevelt, of New York, was com ing down town on an elevated train when an East side girl came in, whereupon the governor rose po litely, lifted his hat and offared the young woman his seat. She took it utterly unconscious of the fact that the generous donor was the gov ernor f the State. The incident eerved as a text for New York writers who saw . something yery wonderful in this act. It was a simple act ot courtesy and showed that the governor of New York is a born genileman, if you please, but things have come to a curious state whan a little attention to the lady who happened to be born on the East Side and who therefore can lay no claim to aristocracy,' is worthy of so much comment." Annexation or Cuba. It is no surprise that the, Spanish residents of tbe island should desire annexation to the United States. They recognize that were the Island a part of the great republic their property would be secure and their lives safe from assault. .The desire for annexation to the United States is felt by every man who has prop erty interests in the island Every foreign merchant! doing business there is a rampant annexationist.1 Indeed he coulu not be j otherwise. Cleveland Plain Dealer. I The Discipline of Poverty There was once a man named Genius who had a large family of children. ! ! 1 He sent most of them to a board ing school j kept by a savage old schookma'ana called Misfortune. And at meal time! they sat at meat with a .most forbidding per sonage named Poverty, who seasoned their food with ashes. But these children of Genius were fated for better things.! And in spite of tbe severe school ing and scanty fare they outstripped most of the other pupils after they got out into the world. j Only one little school mate beat them a rugged son of a widow- who was called Application.
