Witnesses before th corner s Jury stated that on Friday night they saw a man in a black overcoat and can in tho vicinity where the body was found but could not tell whether he was a negro.

People "ot Capable of Taking Care of Themselves The Committee of One Hundred Represented Uie Peo ple and Its Decision Should Stand. To the Editor of The Observer: " One thing regarding the present discussion of the proposed new char ter which Is highly entertaining to the public, .and that Is how completely "the people," the dear peopfe. seem to have delegated and completely con fided their Interests and desires to a very few of our local politicians. It is truly touching to note how devoted to the Interests of ' the people" these gentlemen are. One would have naturally supposed that a body of one hundred citizens selected from all professions and business callings, would have, to some extent at least, represented the Inter ests of these dear people." But no, even after an almost unan Imoull vote in favir of the new char ter, by this large committee. It seem that "the people, ' th poor neglected, downtrodden- people, have been en tirely lost lgb,t of by th entire com mittee and it is only to be by the de votion snd eloquence of these few self-delegated patriotic men that the rights of these sam dear people are to b protected and our fair city saved from the devastation and ruin which would result If the new charter la adopted. These champions of the people we understand will appear Monday night I before th aldermen and do battle royal, pleading 'with tears in their eyes and holes n the heels of their stockings" for the salvation of the rlghls of the penplo The dear people will be charmed by their eloquence, and deeply grate- '.fill for their valor and, perhaps, at tha nexf election, will vote them Into office, a highly satisfactory outcome. no doubt, (irem their standpoint) and possibly (let us whisper It) th foun datlon for their very great solicitude lest "the people " be neglected in this great crisis In civic affairs. " 'Ti8 passing strange" how few of "the people " (hemselves seem to be opposed to the charter, and yet how very solicitous are these few cham pions for the rights of these same people, and how determined they are that a pliin of government shall not be adopted whlci might lessen to a marked degree the opportunity for political wire pulling and corruption at times of election It seems to be an appropriate time to quote the ok! adage. "You can foul some of the peo.ple all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time." It Is to be hoped that tha dear peo ple will not all be fooled by the great' flow of oratory and eloquence wnlch apparently Is to burst forth at the court house on Monday night, but will do a little quiet i funking on their own account, retailing past election events in Charlotte and considering the pres ent financial condition of th city as brought about by the old form of government, and possibly yet de cide that the change proposed may ba a most desirable one for them, even if not for the politicians who are lighting It so hard FOR THE CHARTER. OPEN ALDERMEN MEETING This the Night hr Presentation to Hoard of Aldermen of Complaints Regarding Uie .New Charter as Al ready Drafted. When the aldermen gather to-night In the county court house in public session and for the benefit of those who have aught to say against the proposed new charter, they will. In all probability, be greeted by a long receiving list. The citizens who ara opposed to certain vital sections In the report hove laid well the founda tions for a vigorous onslaught upon tho city fathers and will every effort to persuade them some changes should be made. Petitions have been borne use that from one end of the city to the other and these will be presented to-night. Speeches have been prepared to form tho strength of the cannonading. Several liwyers, It is understood, will lead the flgrtt agHinst the article In the charter providing for the elec tton of the mayor hy the hoard of aldermen, instead of by the people. This section will receive the heaviest blows at the meeting It Is being claimed by the opponents of this new snd novel method for the election of the city's chief executive that It takes away an Inherent right and privilege of the people and places In the hanls of a few chosen aldermen the power to select the head of the city. This is counted undemocratic and a de termined effort will be made to In fluence the aldermen against the measure. The aldermen will occupy their seats and do little more, according to tha purpose of the meeting It Is not Obligatory upon them to remain sil ent, but it I generally anticipated that they will not have an oppor tunity to get In a word. They will confer with the charter committee at $ o'clock to-morrow night snd try to get together on a definite scheme of government. The hour to-night is 8 o'clock. THE DEATH RECORD.

THE FLANS OF THE FOUR C8. People Greatly Interested In Specu lating as to the Infinite Plans of the Company Over Wluch Mr. E. D. Laita Presides, Relative to the Ex tension of the Car Line to the River. It is now believed that It is only a question of a fan months until the work of extending the electric railway line of the Charlotte Consolidated Construction Company to the nearby towns and to the Catawba river will begin. As was stated yesterday morning in The Observer, the officers ef the company decline to be Inter viewed as to the speciflo purposes of the recent Incorporation of the Chsr lotte Gas and Electric Company, but it Is clear that this step was taken purely In the Interest of adding further strength to the properties, rights and franchises now controlled by Mr. Latta and his company. The extension of the electric line to the river and the building of a handsome hotel and park grounds on the bid Davidson place, comprising 1.000 acres of fine timber and other lands, has been the personal ambition of Mr. Latta for many years and the ideal system toward which all other stepB have been merely subordinate and auxiliary. It Is certain that the chartering of the Charlotte Oas and Electric Com pany was sought by Mr. Lalta for tho primary purpose of fortifying himself In the electrical cut-rate war which he Interprets the recent offering of hi competitor, the Southern Power Company, to foreshadow It Is an '".cipated that In the immediate future he will offer to tha people of this city a price for llluaiinutlng gas, upon which he now holds an absolute monopoly, tiiai will be extremely flat tering and intended to meet any rea sonable price upon electricity offered by the Southern Power Company. As a further source of securing electrical power, additional to Its finely equipped plant in Di I worth, the 4C has in mind the development of Its water power on the Catawba upon tha sites secured when the Davidson place was purchased Th separation of the gas and elec tric power builnesa from the street railway system, winch Is owned by the same company, Is aimed to give strength to both winns or the business and to make possible the early, if not Immediate, extension of the electric lines to the river. Toward the con summation of this scheme which has been In the mind of President Latta for many years, the people of the city look with faith, knowing that It means more for Chailotte than iiny other or all the oJIht rievelopm nt i of this company alo'ng this iarl ..'ul.tr line.
