EnthnslastU Meeting of Member of Greater Charlotte Club Held in New Quarters Lsutt Night What Was Done. The "houe-warmlg" meeting of the Greater Charlotte Club heW last night in Its Quarters at the city hall was a most . enthusiastic- one and in many resects the . moat profitable meeting field In aeveral months. There was a large attendance and lively discussion a were 'participated In by many of the members. Mr. David Ovens, chairman of the special committee appointed for the purpose, reported that more than a score nf conventions had been secured for Charlotte during the com ing year and that ten more werj on the string. A committee (was appointed to se cure uniformity in decorations of bus iness house and streets and to urge the cltUens of Charlotte to beautify thielr places of business and homes In honor of the visitor Plans were discussed with a view to securing 'for the city a factory building for the une of small manu facturing plants, the idea being to rent space sufficient for the needs of a gven firm and to sublet electric power. This would enable the small manufacturer to start in business without the necessity of erecting a bulklifty for his special needs. As his business rrew beyond the power of the general building to accom modate his plant the time would then be at band for him to erect a spec ial building for his particular needs. A campaign of Invitation of small manufacturers seeking to establish themselves will soon be entered Into and this appears to have every evi dence of success. A resolution was passed praying the city fathers to attend to the usual spring clearing of Vance Park in view of the; fact that large numbers of visitors will soon be coming to the several conventions. The meeting was of Interest In a social way a well as being for the purpme of "boosting Charlotte." Re freshments were served after the reg ular business of the evening was con eluded. - -CTAIXKB'S -"CRPCTFIalQXrW Splendid CVmtata BndwHt b Ansr- roenred dtoir at s.

Philadelphia Record. ; I Tho Baltimore American yesterday flung aside partisanship to frankly de clare: "To-day Delaware has the one man who could give the Republican candidate a close race this fall. Judge George Gray Is strong In every re spect that appeals to public confi dence and the popular support. His character is tine and flawless. His nersonality la charming. H la one of t hs tblMt ma of th country 11 Is the soul of honor." The only draw back the American finds to his can didacy Is that "Delaware has onlv hree -votes in the' electoral college.' To urge that; scruple to Its, logical eoncluslon would be to Insist that-ths fate with the greatest number of electors should bare a monopoly of choice. BRIEFS. A Few .
