Coacori, K. 0, October t, 191L
One of the most important newe
papar announcements, that has been
made in the state in long while ap
pears in the Charlotte Observer this
morning. On November 1 Maj. James
C. Hemphill is to become editor and
afr. A. E. Gonzales publisher and
managing director of that paper. Maj.
Hemphill is one of the foremost edi
tors in the South, and was for twenty
years editor of the Charleston News
and Conner. For the past two years
he has had charge of the editorial de
partment of the Richmond Times
Dispatch. Mr. Gonzales has for a
number of years been publisher of the
Columbia State, and is a newspaper
man of recognized ability. This an
nouncement will mean much not only
for the Observer but for the city of
Charlotte.
Next Monday, October 9, has been
appointed as Fire Prevention Day,
and we publish elsewhere the official
notice of Fire Commissioner Jas. R.
Young in regard to it. This is a most
important matter. The loss by fire in
the United States is many times
greater than that in European coun
tries, and much of it is preventable.
On next Monday all property owners
are asked to examine their property
and see that all rubbish likely to
cause a fire is moved, and also to see
that flues, chimneys, etc., are in good
condition.
