Kitehin pr- ' " doMd Jek Coffee, colored, of Union - county,- who fu serving a two-years - sentence on th Union eounty chain nor tor bun burning. Several of th newspaper were disposed to erit leiaa the Governor for bU net, and we confess that we sympathized with this ' spirit. No das of criminal is ' more to be dreaded than the one that rta torch to another's property ... . v i t j ,. i u severer punishment. However, we note in the Monroe Enquirer this week a statement that puts a differ- nt face on this matter, and which clearly sustains Gov. Kitchin in his act of mercy. The Enquirer states that while the poor negro was being taken from the chain gang to his father's home he died on the way, his death occurring about three hours iter his pardon was received. The Enquirer adds: "Ordinarily the criticism of The Chronicle about the pardon of a barn burner would be endorsed fully by The Enquirer, but knowing the condi tion of Jack Coffee, knowing that his pardon was a pure act of mercy, that the poor fellow might die outside of a nnviei eamn and before death came be able to put off his felon garb and for short space or tune breatne uou s pure air of freedom, ere his lungs stopped heaving forever, we eommend rather than censure Governor Kitch in from granting the pardon. No Gov ernor who pardons a man that be may go home to die will ever be criticised - by us. When a man has been impris oned until the hand of death is laid upon him, that is enough, and then it is that mercy should be allowed to reach out and put off the shackles and lot tha nnnr nnnvict die outside of prison walls. No use to let the felon oat to die, do you sayl xou may think that it is not but, poor as it is, it is a boon every convict who en ter! the valley of the shadow of death craves with a longing unutterable. In God's name let that wish be gratified." .-The way the trains emptied the 'crowds into. Charlotte this morning, . beat a circus. The procession up town frora the depots caused even the town ' people to wonder. Charlotte is the most popular city in the State. Our neighbors never fail to come whenever w may arrange an excuse for it. Charlotte Chronicle. And the way the Concord people who went over roasted the fair man agement beat two circuses, Col. Har ris. It was advertised far and wide by the fair management through free , space in the newspapers that Whitt mer, the aviator, would certainly make a flight in the afternoon. The Con cord people and the others, nearly all f whom went for this feature alone, - waited patiently until some time after , 6 .o'clock, expecting the flight to be . 'made every moment. The weather and wind conditions wire perfect, ap parently, and there was no reason why the big feature should not have been ? given. "You may say for me," said ... one of our prominent eitixens who went over, "that it was a fake, pure and simple." Charlotte is all right - but the Mecklenburg fair management i is certainly coming is for a cordial roast from the crowd that visited the grounds yesterday. . , Two years ago when Doe.

EEZZr rELtT Eur) A toa- k Brect That ShooU Be Ciltivaisd ta VarU CareUaa. . lCWkUU ChroaxU. Tbe attest of Majot William H. Beraaid, ef WUaunften, baa been at tracted to a at-jry ei a fonllag beep and be enKt it to the sooiogteei editor of the Chroaiel to pass oo. N lew a paaer taast ta Louavule Courier-Journal ia reeponsibM for it. Tbe story goes that ia the eounty ei Qibaoa, ia the Stat of Indiana, a certain farmer pnrehaeed a sheep. Hegardleee of the well-known antipa thy aeaweea dors and aheep be tam ed tbe animal iato the fcanyard, waere his dog was aeenatosMd to ran at large, keeping more er lean vigil and watch over tbe pig and cows, the crib and bayataeka, the chickens and the farm implements. During the night tbe abeep attacked the dog and killed him. in the eold, gray dawn when the farmer hustled out to feed the stock he listened In vaia for Tow ser'a welcoming voice. He found out the reason when he found Tow ser in a fence corner, at iff ae a poker, eold as a wedge and speechless for evennore. Nearby waa the sheep, showing symptoms of ghoulish glee, malevolence in his eye and canine blood on his horns. Gibson county pays for sheep killed by doge, but there is no county in tbe world which pays for dogs killed by sheep. In fact, it has been tbe general belief in bucolic regions that "there ain't no sich thing" as a dog-killing sheep. But the Indiana fanner knows better and knows it to his sorrow, for goo i dogs are scarce. He had beard that the county paid for sheep killed by dags, and he lowed, by granny' that it ought to pay for dogs killed by sheep. On tbe strength of his belief be submitted a claim for tbe value of one dog slaughtered with malice aforethought by a cruel and fero cious sheep. The eold-blodcd custo dian of the public exchequer promptly consigned the claim to the cuspidor and somewhat sarcastically inquired of the farmer as to what was eating him. Wherefore, the farmer went home declaring his intention of voting for a new administration, and deplor ing the official obstinacy that could not recognize any merit in a claim for the loss of a, good coon dog. It is a poor rule that does not work both ways, but the wisdom of Indiana statesmanship has never been ual to foreseeing a situation wheieui an unfortunate dog should be murdered by a bloodthirsty sheep. Three Seek to Succeed Eoks Smith. Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 26. What prom ises to be one of the hottest fights for governorship that Georgia has seen in years was formally launched here today when tbe State Democrat ic executive committee met to fix the date and make other arrangements for the State primaries to choose tbe successor of governor Hoke Smith, who resigns next month to assume his duties as United States Senator. It is generally expeeted that the com mittee will select the second week of December as the time for holding the primaries. There are three leading candidate in the race for the governorship. They are former gov-rnor Joseph M. Brown, former State Treasurer J. Pop Brown and Richard B. BusnelL judge of the court of apepals. This is Joseph 31. Brown s third race for governor. He defeated Hoke Smith for a second term in 1908, and in 1910 was defeated for a second term by Smith. His entry into tbe present contest has aroused the fighting blood of the Smith adherents who look on his candidacy as a part of a plan of former Governor Terrell and the old machine to gain control of the Geor gia Democracy and defeat Smith when he goes before the people for re election as United States senator. Tbe prohibition issue n expeeted to figure prominently in the cam paign. Judge Russell is to make the race on a local option platform, while J. Pope Brown is a supporter of the present State-wide prohibition law. Former Got. Brown straddles the prohibition question. by local applications, es thr eaaaoc reacti the dlaaaeed portion f the ear.
