The Charlotte News and the Greens boro News said the same thing a long time ago, and blamed if we don't hope their faitli will be rewarded at last..' . Fame takes a tumble again. The Charlotte News spoke of "Lewis T. Mnnm weather chief." etc. Tne News is at least due the Wilmington newspaper man an apology for the way It spells Louis. As for Dr. Wil lis L. Moore, the groundhog has him In the background just now and he probably won't mind anyway. We can see the esteemed Manufac turers Record getting red-headed over the preparations for the great meeting of the Southern Commercial Congress, at Atlanta,- March ...8-10, That it is going to be a big meeting and an important meeting is evident The Record has fought the Southern Commerecial Congress from tae be ginning, has tried to belittle its ef forts. But the men at the head of it are well known business men of the south and the Record's efforts have proved harmless, perhaps helpful i in advertising the congress. The con gress has gone ahead, steadily grow ing in Influence. The meeting to be held In Atlanta is one of the biggest and most Important meetings ever at- temnted in this country. It has al ready done much to advertise the south. i Just the preparation for It is being talked about and written about all over this country. Hundreds of business men will be in attendance and there will be leading men from all AVPr t h r.ountrv to make ad dresses, including President T&ft Governor Kltchin will attend and has appointed a delegation of able busi- ; ness men to represent the state. Be sides the governor's appointees many others will attend from the state But speaking of the Southern Com- ' mereclal Congress, these meetings, important as they are, are the least important part of the work it is' do ing. It is keeping the country con itantly supplied with information about the south and is doing more to advertise its resources than any other agency. One of the most interesting hear Ings before a committee during this legislative session was that before one of the Judiciary committees yes terday afternoon on the bill to change the name of the Croatan Indians to Cherokee; . The Cherokee strongly object to the change. They are proud of their ancestry and history and name. ' They say the name belongs to them and that the Croatans have no part nor lot In their Cherokee an cestry or history r.nd are not entitled hear the dvou-J name.' And who can blame them, for thus resenting this appropriation of their name by another people. Whoever the Croa tans are it is certain they are not Cherokees. The Cherokee have the pride of a pure blooded race. The Croatans can claim no such distinc tion. The old theory that the Croa tans have a strain of 'white blood, coming from Raleigh's lost colony must be the correct one. It is the only theory that will account for the Croatans. Just why the Croatans want to change their name we do not know. Cherokee, while a proud name, could mean nothing to them. If they could lose their identity by thus arbitrarily changing their name, they would lose the mystery and the omance which now attaches to them. As a race they have not made much advancement or done anything to be oud of. Still, it seems that the name they have always borne would mean more to them than any other could possibly mean and there Is some distinction for them in being re garded as the descendants of the lost colony of English. THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING. We are not opposed per se to the rovision of adequate, fire-proof ad ministration buildings for the state at Raleigh, but we do insist that the present condition of the treasury, tae resent unsatisfactory methods oi .. n. ...11 J V taxation in .North uarouna aim ic general tendency toward rank extrav agance in such matters as public buildings should admonish the gen eral assembly to have a care in vot ing million dollar bond issues and rushing matters of the kino -inrougu the legislature with the hurra-i and the huzzah that somehow seem to ac company the bill. Million dollar bills should not be allowed to pass with out tae most serious consideration, from the viewpoint of tae present as well as the future, and ideas of tne strictest economy should prevail in such legislation. The tendency toward voting bond issues, without counting the eost, is becoming entire ly alarming. Better have a care!- Wilmington Star. That anyone should talk about un ite haste and hurry in this matter is astounding. The very reverse is uie Procrastination, that bane of many good things, has been invoked to the limit. The matter has been discussed pro and con in. every cou- rPlvaliL. fashion for the last six or eight years, peraaps longer. It was iiei-nre t;ie last legislature, in differ ent '": form two years ago n,i hpi'fliise of lack of buildings here it was even threatened to move the capitol to Greensboro. No matter in North Carolina has been more discussed in the papers than this necessity for adequate build- ngs in which to transact the bus! ness of the state. The people all over the state know of the need for such building as that proposed. Thou after all this discussion in the papers and by the people, the recommcn dation of state officials, historical and patriotic societies, there has been no disposition to rush the bill through Hib letrlslature. It is taking its course with other important bills, The need for new buildings is press ing and the matter, after thorough discussion and deliberation, is simply up to the legislature. Here it will again be thoroughly discussed when it comes up for passage, and we be lieve the members of the general as sembly are so impressed with the wisdom of the measure that they will pass it.

My understanding is that the .board of audit and finance, which cost the city 1.800 ner annum, and the board or police commissioners, which cost the city $700 per annum, will be abol ished, new duties put uponx the mayor, clerk, tax-collector and police ustices, and their salaries .mcreasea 1 r00. The new charter places tne annointine of chief of Tiolice and all officers in the police department in the hands of the mayor and elects the board of aldermen trom tne wards, by the people at large, I do not wish anyone to think that because my little ornceoi ponce commissioner will be abolished that prompts me to write this article.
