Salisbury, N.C,Dec 19th, 190C. VOLUME III. With this issue The Carolina Watchmam enters its third vol ume in its new life, having been re-established December 19th, 1904. The original Watchman succeeded the Western Carolinian . in 1882. It had a regular exist ence until about-1894 and after wara wouia awaJse at various in tervals' and showed signs of life anywherefrom two weeks to six or eignt months at a time.' The out 5 1 r nt was nnally pat up at auction and-purchased by the writer 8 s an addition to the then plant of the Salisbury Truth. It was with some misgiving the Watchman was re-established but 4a bold, determined policy was de cided upon and success was soon assured. The paper has' grown ripidly and continuously and we feel that it is now well establish ed &s & businees enterprhe and nas a strong hold upon a Idrge majority of the good and intelli gent citizens cf the county. During the past year our sub ciption and advertising patron age has more than doubled ; we have put in a gasolene engine and considerable new type, ' borders, rules and furniture, and we are now in a better position to pro duce a larger and better paper. We greatly appreciate the pat ronage and good will of our many friends and hope that we may merit a continuance of the same. With hearty good will, we sin cerely.wish an abundance of the season'stoy. success during hejDMinreWr f6r all In advocating a reformatory the Charlotte News having devel oped such an unusual horror of corporal punishment for crimi- nais, we ieei tne necessity or giv mg it a taint idea of men, not eentimental women, who had leisure, outside of the conduct of a daily newspaper, to form unim passioned opinions. We quote from 21st chapter of Deuterono my, verses 18-21 : "If a man have a stubborn and .rebellious son, which will not obey the voice ot his father, or the voice of .- his mother, and that, when thev have chastened him. will not hearken unto them; then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him oul unxo ine eiaers 01 nis city, and unto the crates of his nlaner and they shall say unto the elders 01 ms city, rnisjour son is stub - born and rebellious, he will not obey our. voice; he fs a glut ton, and a drundard. And all the men of his city shall stone him. with stones, that he tlie: so snail pnou put evil away trom among you; and all Israel shall hear ai-d fear." Now that Do wy ism is so rapid ly degenerating ar9 we to expect one greater than Moses to rise in Charlotte? ' ( Ab may be noticed elsewhere in The Watchman, the Supreme Court has not yet decided the Hall appeal case from this county. Some time ago we made note that the; Supreme Court had decided the matter against Hall, ruling that che Governors absence from the Stateat the time he called the special term of Rowan Supe rior Court, was not the kind of absence meant by the constitution and therefore all cases tried by that special court were legal and' tha decisions reached would stand. It poems Jo us this information wai obtained from several of our exchanges, but we especially re member seeing some' - such , state ment in the Statesville Landmark, and as the Landmark is so uni formly correct in euch matters we did not hesitate to accept it as true. We also publish today a statement from the Charlatte Ob server which seems to be final and shows the matter to stand as pre viously stated.' The Charlotte News speaks of a ten or twelve-story building as a 'sky-scaper,' Watchman. Yes, thereby distinguishing" a Charlotte sky-scraper from those of some other towns, whera half that number is sufficient for the, title. Uharlotte News. As no claims of such character has been made by Salisbury, we of course do not know what the News is shootine at. but. if we understand the above, an entirely, new idea as to sky-scrapers has come into existence. For in stance a 125-story structure may be a sky-scraper for New Yof k or Chicago, but a 10-story affair is a sky-scraper for Charlotte or Salis bury, or Matthews, Crofts', Newels, Lanais, Rabbittsville, etc., may have a sky-scraper; provided, so much as a first-class chicken coop rears its imposing exister.ee within, the 10-foot or two-mile corporate limits. If so, yea verily, so might it,be. We are' now thoroughly aware that it is hog-killing time. A num ber of our correspondents have hinted at it, but it was left to our good friend, J. O. Hooston, of Benr Poplar, to give us something in the way of substantial evidence of the fact. Secently we received fromhim a lot of nice sausage, made and seasoned in the eood old timey way. This was not only greatly appreciated, but it re minds us that not all of the trood old ways and customs and good people have yet departed from the land, lhere are no more eood people to the square mile than can be found in old Rowau and the longer-we dwell among them the more we learn to appreciate them. Prudent and economic expendi ure has always been one of the leading tenets of the Democracy, but like many other organ izatio n s mea Jpiu it for personal advanc- ment, and instead of endeavoring to uphold its principles they strive to warp its purposes and benefits to many for personal advantage and financial gain. You hear them talking about "progress," "improvement," and "who would object to a few more cents taxa tion," etc., they talk by innuen do, hide behind false colors and endeavor to make the masses be lieve they are seeking blessings for all, but fail to state just what kind of an axe they have to grind. Watch! them. A special from Raleigh to the Charlotte News says that strenu ous efforts are to be made to have the meeting of the legislature changed from January and Feb ruary to some date in the spring, owing to the great exposure to the members as at present. It does not state just where the people's zealous servants do most of their meeting, but we suppose the idea is a good one, at least those who stay out late at night seem to think so. Pity some of these delicate gentemen had not thought over the matter before making a canvass, Just as a great many hitherto bad spellers were beginning to awaken to the possibilities of a literary career Congress sits down real hard on the bob-tailed recess arrangement brought about by Mr. Roosevelt. The jig is all up now boys, if you ever intend to know anything about spelling' the sooner you get the contents of the old blue-back arranged about in the many vaeant spaces in your cranium the better. Be sure von get the genuine as there has nev er been anything put between cov ers that can hold it a light. A Miss Simouton, of Pittsbnrsr. Pa., is in the jungles of Africa en deavoring to learn the monkey language. Probably she "does not know that phonetic and &imnli- fied spelling can be learned , much nearer home and without subject-, ing herself to bo many daLgers, privations and hardships, WAV r.vtv l-i'.'..". - .
