John >l. Oglesby, of Concord, named by Governor McLean Superior Court judge for this district to fill the vacancy j caused by the death of Judge B. F. Ixmg, j was not listed as among the candidates and his appointment was therefore un expected. Those ih touch with the situ ation, however, understood that the gov ernoi desired to name a young man and if possible an ex-service man, and lie found what he wanted in Mr. Oglesby, whose age is 37. The new judge is not widely known. It is one ,of. ( the peculiarities of the legal profession that a lawyer, no matfer what his ability, rarely attains distinction as a leader in his professtion until he reaches middle life. The fact, therefore, that Mr..Oglesby is not widely' known, that he has. been in the practice of his profession but a few years and has not attained distinc tion probably outside of his home coun ty. does not mean that he isn’t qualified for the high position to which he has been appointed. lie is a nephew of the late Judge William J. .Montgomery, or Concord, in his day one of the mo6t eminent lawyers in this section of the state. . An uncle of the same nan.e was a judge in Virginia, In fact the young judge is said tq be connected with law-' yers of distinction from both branches of his family. That of itself signifies nothing, but those acquainted with the young mnn testify that, he lives up to the family reputation; that his legal at tainments are unusual for one of his years; that he is a student, is se’.f-re linr.t and has judicial temperament. In short lawyers who know Judge Oglesby say Hhat he is exceptionally well quali fied in all respect* for the bench, and they are sure that liis service will dem onstrate the wisdom of his appointment. H;s appointment is for less than two years. Next year a judge for this dis trict will be elected, hut If Judge Ogles by shows that lie is us fit as his friends believe him to be iie will in all proba bility be his own successor. Iredell bar endorsed former Lieutenant Governor Turner for the appointment. Mr H. P. Grier, Sr., and Sqlicitor Long, of Statesville, and Mr. Z. V. Turlington. o 4 Mooresville, were also mentioned in that connection, although they were not applicants. But it was too much to ex pect that the judgeship coald Fome to Ire dell. For 32 years continuously this county has had the Superior Court judge —Judge Armfield two years. Judge Coble eight years and Judge Long 22 years; and for ten years an Iredell man has been | solicitor, Judge Long filling that oflioe eight years before he was promoted to the bench. In fact for more than half a century, with a few intervals. Iredell eounty has furnished the judge or the so licitor, sometimes both, for the judicial district. Judge Anderson Mitchell, res ident of Statesville, served following the war between the states, up to the time of his deiith, and Judge Fmehes filled out his unexpired term (some years be fore Judge Furches became a member qf the Supreme Court). Jos.' S. Adams, resident of Statesville, was for a term or two solicitor, and he was succeeded by B. F. Long. While Iredell has the material, it is too much to expect that the eounty can have both the judge and the solicitor all the time. The other counties in the district naturally expect some share in the honors. , Judge Oglesby was a newspaper man before he fell from grace and entered the legal profession. So far from holding it against him that he abandoned news paperipg for lawyering, we>fdel a kindly interest in him on account of his former association. We are, therefore extending congratulations not only but assuring his honor of sincere good wishes for his success, with the confident expectation that he will measure up as his friends believe he will. The New Superior Court Judge. Charlotte News. ( Governor McLean disregarded what the public would siangingiy call “the dope” in makiug John M. Oglesby, of Concord, the successor of the lamented Judge Long, instead of one of a handful of otl’.ers who had been strongly recommend ed and any one of whom might have been expected to land the position. Nevertheless, the governor lias chosen a fine young fellow who will carry dig nity to the bench as welf as a balanced judicial temperament and a knowledge of the law that make his abilities suit well to the exactions of this high post. Mr. Oglesby has been prominent in the life of Concord, the town of his nativity, and is altogether a young man of worth and worthiness of the honors attaching to the appointment. The fact that he was at one time en gaged. in the newspaper business should not be held against him in view of his reformation some time ago and his total divorcement from that profession. \ In spite of the ink he got on his fingers during the years he was feeling his way through newspaper experience he has turned out to be a thorough success in the profession of the law, as his appoint ment by the governor is abundant testi mony. Mr. McLean is not the sort of a gov ernor to be undiscriminating in his choice 1 of men suitable for ofi}ces to which he | must make appointment. He is inclined i to weigh one's talents and capacities, | first of all. instead of finally alighting I i upon one for nothing more than strate- I I gic reasons.

Not long ago a girl who had become | “boy crazy” and completely enmeshed in the night life rtf n great eity, actually shot and killed the'mother who tried to retnonstrate with her. The dapper who waif out loose from home ties and is "going the pace" has been scathingly re ferred to so often in the press in recent yen to. that it • may be her side of the case has been somewhat lost sight of. “My parents w’l not let me have dates with boys. I have to lie when I go out with a boy. I hate to deceive my father and mother. Roys don’t re spect a girl who docs that' but what can I do?" This is the sort of plaint.six teen-year-old girls arc making every day to people in whom they really, confide. Bo rays Dorothy Dix. whose level head ed ndvice to young peop’e in trouble has so long helped 'to humanize the home pages of various American newspapers. The orthodox advice to give in such cases, admits Miss Dix. is to say: “Obey your parents, little girl. Be good and you will be happy.” But the trouble is, I she explains, the normal girl may not j pine after abstract virtue at sixteen. She wants to have a good 'time apd do what her other girl friends ore doing. And often she isn't going to take “my advice, nor her parent's advice, nor thpt of any other old wise acre.” So this woman, who knows so much of young peoples* heart,«, addresses herself this time, not to the girls who are doing the wrong and foolish things, but to their parents. With the.best intentions in the wor'd, she laments, they aye pushing their beloved daughters into the abyss that yawns for silly, reckless, unguided, little girls. We quote from the New York Evening Post: “Wake up fathers and mothers, from the trance in which you qhave’ doped yourselves into believing that your daughter is different from all ,of the other girls of her generation, and thnt you, can prevent her from doing all the things that the other girls do. Cast aside ybur'cherished belief that you can keep your girl-chi’d in a hermetically sealed jar. in which she will be untouched by ell the waves of passion and desire thnt . sway the youth about her until suen a time ns you are ready to take her out of bondage and give her freedom. For , get that you 'ever 1 imagined that yon could enforce absolute obedience on your daughter, and that she would be but: clay in your hands. “I am rot discussing here ■ whether sixteen is old enough to have dates or not, or the ethics of dancing nnd moving pictures. Without doubt, it would be sweet, if sixteen were the artless child her parents think she is, and if she wanted to pliy,’ with dol's and still her licvcs in fnries nnd read ‘Alice in Won l derland.’ “But the point is thnt sixteen now is often more sophisticated than sixty; that she rends ‘The Sheik’ instead of ‘Alice, and crazy, as she will never be again in life, and that, no human power can keep her from doing things that her girl chums are doing;" “Are you going to' force your daugh ter to lie and deceive you, or . are you j going to abate some of your prejudicies. I perhaps even „ lay aside some of your I scruples and let her be frank and honest I with you? And how' ate you going to guide and protect her 1 if you do not know what she is doing? ‘You do not need to be told of the ' danger thnt a girl runs who meets men at streets-corners. and who slips out of the house to keep dates. Thnt one thing puts her out of the clasp of ‘nice girls’ nnd makes boys treat her with a lack of respect that they would not show to the girl Who has the backing of her home nnd father behind her. She is classed as a ‘good 1 , sport’ who is willing to do any thing to have a good time, and who will go the limit. “It is literally and terribly true that the girl who slips away from home to enjoy forbidden p’easures nearly al ways slips down into the pit. Don’t make your daughters pay that frightful price for the pleasures of youth for which she is so hungry, just because you think she isn’t old enough to have a beau. “And how are you to know what sort of boys your daughter is associating with if you do not let them come to the house to sqe her. "Remember this, parents: ‘Your girls are going to have a beau; they are going to have dates; they are going td dance; they are goin to places of amusements. You can’t help that.

A new Congress comes into legal existence on March 4th of the odd years. The constitution provides that the; Congress shall assemble at least once every year and that such meeting shall be on the first Monday in December, unless the Congress by law appoints a different day. The long session is the first regular ses sion of a Congress. It begins on the first Monday in December of the odd years and continues until the following .Tune, July or August, being frequently determined by the hot weather in Wash ington. There is no law to determine its length. Congress can adojurn any time it sees fit. However, it must un der the constitution meet again in the lar session of Congress begins on the following December. The second regu first Monday in December of the even years. It automatically comes to an end on the following March 4th, because the Congress itself comes to a legal end. Hence this session is called the short session. Gold Rush in Manitoba. A stampede of gold seekera was started to the Manitobas and. Swan river dis t-'c! of Manitoba when yellow substance found in the earth there was pronounced gold by the assay' office. The yellow streak in the dirt was found seven years ago by a farmer digging a well; the as say Office only recently made ’jts report.
