"And now The Raleigh Times is weening copiously because Raleigh has not an extra theatre or two. Too many theatres in towns that can barely support one is just what is the matter with the show business and as usual Mones he pays the freight,' in the shape of witnessing sub-average plays and those few and far between.' Charlotte Chronicle. Oh, no, sister, you are wrong in both statements. We do not want "another theatre or two," but a thea tre. The one we have is old arid di lapidated, with small sentint; famu li;." find small stage and poor :n com modations for boih public and. ac tor. The promotors of the new theatre are the owners of the pres ent one and the new one will taUe the place of the old. And lest we be misunderstood In saying we have but the one theatre, we will say that w have a very good small house, which Is used for vaudeville, but it is not suited to the production of the larger" plays. : "So much for the first statement. As for the second, if Hrother Harris had been at home the Chronicle would have known that i.H the theatres In this section be long to the theatrical trust, that is nil the attractions which appear at them are sent out by one booking company. Instead of too many theatres being the cause of sorry tchowg we are of the opinion ".hat the main cause lies in this fact. The booking company has thought that because it had the field to itself it could send any kind of trash that it cared to put on the road and that the public, being helpless, would part with its dollars just the same. That policy probably brought the theatre people a rk-h harvest- for awhile, but it has finally proved their undoing. The people have been fooled so many times that a good 'house" is now the exception unless the reputation of actors or company are such as to insure a good produc tion. In a case like this the public has confidence in the production, but It has no confidence in the booking company or theatre circuit. Whether more playhouses would be a remedy for the situation Is doubtful, but cer tainly too many houses Is not the cause of the present distrust of the whole theatre business. Ml. COOK COMING. Dr. Frederick A. Cook, who "put one over", on the learned scientists of Copenhagen until they got a look at his "records," and who had three fourths of the civilized world at his feet for a brief spell, Is coming to Raleigh and will lecture January 18. hore are plenty of men and wo men who are willing to swallow the alleged scaler of Mount McKinley and the discoverer of the north pole, and be will doubtless rake in a few ;liekels In the capltol city. If P. T. Baroum were alive, he would exult at the chance of piloting the doc- tof about. " Senator Bailey of Texas will 4e liver the opening address - at the fourth - annual convention tof the tioutnern" Commercial Congress at Nashville, next April, If he doesn't Itbdratr his acceptance In the .weantlBe.;.'?'.-;:; ' ' '- SHOULD XOT DISCRIMINATE. Whether the niotormeu and cou- par. of his uior.ey at home if we ductors who went on strike yester- would utilize our own resources.' We day ac'ed with proper discretion or should do it and slop the drain. And with due courtesy to the company wi:h the nionex ui home and iu cir may be a subject for difference of eu'iitio'.i everybody will ubare iu the opinion. They may have ailed hast- benefits. fly, but we have been unable to see any discourtesy or any threat in V.'e deny ' that i'a ton's eiuii::si eithor of the no;es submitted to the asm for nr. Poo!. in caused by ilie company. But that their requests appeal of one kindred spirit for aii were right and proper, whether made other. in the right way or not we believe ' - there is no difference of opinion in the mind of the Raleigh public. The street car company has acknowledg ed the justice of the demand, in part at least, by making the increase in pay for which the men asked and we presume that the other matters asked for will also hi? attended to. But. if the street car company means to take a vindictive altitude towards the ''men who went out, it is making a mistake. It nas virtually said: "Your requests are all right. We grant them. ' but you shall not share in them, at least not until you have served another apprenticeship. Go to work at the old price and when you have served as long as we think proper we will give you the same wages we are going to give now to your fellow-workers who did not quit." It seems like irony that the men who were either satisfied with their present wages or did not have the courage to ask for more, are to get the raise, while the men who caused them to set it must go back to work rt the old wage or seek new posi tions; " We believe the street car company does not mean to -be anything else than fair. 1; has generally been fair and liberal with the city of Raleigh as a'. municipality, and. with-the Ral eigh public. But we believe it is a little bit peeved with the men" -who struck and, though recognizing the justice, of their requests and grant ing .ihcin to others, is determined because of this peevishness,, that the strikers 'shall not share in the inime diate benefits. If we may say so. this is not the proper spirit for the rompany to assume. If the reques.s were just, and the company has ad mitted they were, the men who made them ought not to '-be .'discriminated against. keep the moxey at home. If southern business people gen erally follow a recent example se: by Governor John M. Hlaion, of Geor gia, this section won't have to be sending north so often in the future to borrow money to move cotton crops and build houses. Believing strongly in the princi ple of keeping money at home wherever reasonably possible. Gov ernor Siaton, in purchasing $1,4 00, 000 of fire insurance for state property,- recognized all the home fire in surance companies doing business in Georgia under the slate regulations. He considered them as absolutely solid, he declared, as any of the northern Institutions. During the last thirty years alone, according to figures at the - capltol. the south has paid to the northern and eastern companies S 0 17,2 75 In premiums, draining this section of that amount, and Ptuitig to south-' ern companies only $',8..1S1,1I2.

We believe In patronizing the home companies whenever possible. North Carolina sends thousands of dollars out of the state every year for fire Insurance. But ft Is not be cause she doesn't have good, strong home companies, The man who has property to insure thinks that It doesn't make' any difference, so long as be Is protected, who Insures him. And directly, It does not. But in the, long run It does because it is one of the drains on the money of the section. We send our money out for insurance, for part of our build ing material, for bouse furnishings, for clothing, food, farming Imple ments, bay. grain adn other things nil arrvxtf onttnn n fnnt th.

" We are not. stuck up about ii but Chariot te h nothing ahead of us on the Dr. fool; proposition.' Press Comment. ; A Peaceful Jackson Day. .lackson day passed without any fatalities among democrats of high degree, either as to persons or repu tations." The avowed candidates are in possession of their booms, and the dark horses are still champing at their bits. It is true that Mr. Bryan had his usual bad luck in his tight before the national committee, but t;is defeat was a foregone conclu sion, even to himself, and defeats do not bother him much in these latter days. The dinner, instead of being a Donny-brook fair, proved to be a harmony feast almost too effusive in some of the studied poses and public manifestations of affection on the part of one or two 'actors but on the whole a peace dinner, and a quinine effort to get and keep to- g Ou r. Some of the speeches were st -ong, sensible, and patriotic. 01 hers '."ere obviously meant tor Buncombe county consumption. No one was pal pably injured by his own utterance.?, and perhaps no "candidate.' measur ably aided his own cause. .The de grees of enthusiasm with which can didates were received were largely accidental, and it cannot be said that any one candidate monopolized the admiral ion of the assembled Jark sonians. It was natural, perhaps, that the active candidates should steer clear of expressions '.committing them too definitely upon matters at issue be- fore the people. Generations were safer and the diners were willing to accept epigrams In place of brass tack declarations. The dinner brought the democratic., party no nearer to a unit upon such great questions as the tariff, for example. Democrats must get together somewhere else than at a banquet table when the tariff policy is formulated. However, it was a notable dinner in the char acter of its guests and the general good nature and at least if did not give the party a setback, even if it failed to give the countrv any better idea than before as to the probable choice of democrats for the presi dency or the consensus of democratic opinion on current issues. Wash ington Post. . Iliyaii-l.-'i I't.llette Tiu-ty. Mr. Bryan and Senator La Follette the two most aggressive, if not the two most influential, protagonists of a purely despotic democracy as a sub stitute for ; our representative sys tem met in Washington Sunday evening, quite by chance--or was It through the agency of some strange tbeo8ophical spell? and had a heart-to-heart- conference on the state of the nation. These two favor ites of fortune, supposedly, or rather, professedly, holding opposing poli tical principles think exactly alike, and probably would act alike except that for prudential reasons it ap pears to be necessary in order to avoid the charge of party irregularity for one to declare himself a democrat and the other a republican. That either of them is a better man: a greater lover of the people; an abler statesman, or 'a sounder thinker than the leaders : of their respective parties, whom they are pleased to assail and characterize as dishonest time-savers and paid hirelings of the i interests, an intelligent and informed nubile will not heiuvo if hou wnu they are both out. of hrn.nv " There is more Catarrh in this see- color card and full Information show tlon of the country than alUotiier Ing'yon bow you can save a good diseases put together, and until the many dollars.

The case has no exact parallel, we believe, in recent criminal history. There have been instances of desperate wickedness wife-murder, husband-murder, assas sinations of many kindsbut none equalling exactly the diabolism of the crime confessed by this Massachu setts preacher.! The story carried in our news dis patches is briefly that a niisister of the gospel of Christ, serving an in telligent, cultured and godly people, betrays an innocent, confiding wo man and to remove her so that, he may make a matrimonial alliance that would bring him wealth ut.d power, he gives her a deadly poison to be self-adnilnlBtered and in such a way and in such circuinsta'i.-es rs would ordinarily suggest suicid '. The cruelty, the rank selfishness and the develish hypocrisy of it would, in charity to our kind, seem to justifv the belief that the man was not normal nnd was moved by some 8a- tanic spirit, bis mental powers his heart and conscience numbed i ie n- while by some insane spell. H'.a con fession is complete and in its details adds something to 'the. mystery .that perhaps gives social -'students an.! criminal investigators a clue t -he solution. Whether the -man should my .:!n': pci.a't of his life for his crimes will h,. a l.iooted question, havin.-r ;'r e.it advocates on either side. But there can be no debate if capital punish ment is .still to be regarded as the price of cowardly, premeditated and cruel murder. There isn't a single extenuating circumstance in the en tire story of the crime, and if he shall not be electrocuted then the commonwealth or Massachusetts should abolish the electric chair as the penalty for murder. The man's pleas to be permitted to live and work among criminals in the peniten tiary would seem to be a mockery of merry as well as Justice, for it is hardly like that in all the army of convicts that fill our jails one can be found guilty of so despicable and Inhuman a crime. It matters not, so far as the demands of just re tribution are concerned, what the theory of the man's obsessions may be, the law and outraged humanity does not contemplate that such a monster shall live and work even among those approaching his kind. "Silent" seclusion would seem to lie his just portion, at least for an ex emplary period that is If he Is tc live. Chattanooga Times. . PAINT WITHOCT Oil,.
