Who la this man Roosevelt, belm talked of ao persistently for McKln ley's running mate? How did he get Into the performance? Wasn't It un derstood all along that Senator Prltch ard waa to have second place? The North Carolina Republicans endorsed him, and It was natural to suppose that an expression from so distinguished a crowd as the Tarheel Radicals would be acted upon at the first opportunity. And, too, there Is Senator Prltchard's Influence with the administration that was expected to help In pulling him on the ticket. This Hough Rider governor would better be careful the Madison boys'll get him If he don't watch out. If the anti-amendment officeholder seek to attack the amendment and make the negro's vote as good as the white man's, they mum answer to the people, for they cannot deprive the white nmn of his vote. Come to Asheville. When days rest of the have the sultry summer come, the hot year, the eyes of thouaantla In warmer climes turn to Asheville the city where the skeeters never trouble and the nights bring sweetest rest. Asheville a doors are open to all who want to come there la neither lock nor latchatrlng, and the visitor has only to enter and make himself at home. He will rind the love liest country on earth a wealth of scenery and a climate that must charm him. He will And Asheville's streets In better shape than when he was here last year, with Haywood and Chestnut paved, and several of the drives Im proved under the direction of the Good Roads association. He will And elec trie lamps to shed light upon his path way unleaa he wanders out of sight of tnem or tne water in Hominy runs very low. He will find one of the best treet car systems In the south to transport him to any quarter of the City except that portion of South Main between Town branch and Mc Dowell street. He will And hotels and boarding houses galore, from which he may take hla pick houses such as any resort of the ftrat-class would be proud. To be sure, for all of this a fee Will be aaked, "to defray current ex penses," but he will expect that, be lieving that fair exchange Is no rob bery. And when he arises In the morn ing from slumber (hut has not been disturbed by the terrifying song of the mosquito or the nightmare Heat he will feel a thrill of the new life that he came to secure. Asheville wants to give everybody an experience of this kind, and she has donned her daintiest summer costume to Welcome them. ' Prof. Holton and his distinguished Side, Abe Mlddleton, should soon have from those census takers who were do ing their bidding facts sufficient to show them the size of the majority by which the white men of North Caroli na are going to ratify the suffrage amendment. Life Insurance. Some Idea of the magnitude of the amount distributed through the medl om of life Insurance may be had from a perusal of the figures printed In the insurance Press of New York, which tdyes tables showing what was paid at In 4000 cities and towns of the Uni ted States In 1899. It Is stated that the middle states are the heaviest patrons of life Insurance, the central states oming next. The distribution In the middle states last year aggregated 70.4 millions of dollars; In the central states S3." millions; In the New Eng land states 25.1 millions; In the south l$.'t millions; In the west 14 millions, and In the Pacific states 7.S millions. A majority of the death claims are small, less than 10 per cent, of the whole number being amounts of $10,000 or more. The table devoted to North Carolina shows the total payments for the year to have j been $1,217,870. Charlotte leads, with $150,490. Asheville's totf was $35,000, Raleigh $85,000. Wilming ton $67,233, Rockingham, $70,450, Greensboro $45,650. Durham $35,125. The total of claims paid In the United States and territorial possessions and m Canada was $185,821.1(9. The Insurance Press' compilation Is a valuable piece of work. A reader suggests that the evange list who announced his subject as "A Hot Time" and preached from a brim stone text would have had greater success If he had constructed Ills' ser mon on the Hebrew children and the fiery furnace. Beautiful School Rooms, It Is pleasant to record that the ef forts for beautifying the public school rooms In Asheville are attracting at tention abroad. The North Carolina Journal of Education says: "It would be difficult to find more beautiful school rooms thun those of the public schools of Asheville. Large, high-pitched, well lighted, tinted walls, pictures and statuary tastefully dis posed In rooms and halls, these school buildings are suitable homes for the children during school hours. Pictures and statuary to the value of more than $500 have been added since last fall. Nor has less attention been given to health and comfort. Heating, ventila tion, cloak rooms and other necessi ties and conveniences have received attention. The result Is the people are beginning to be proud of their school houses and are willing to do all that Is needful." ONE OF THE BEST IN THE PHILIPPINES 29TH INFANTRY BAND UNDER PROF. COB'S LEADERSHIP. The Cttlsen's Raleigh correspondent sends the following, which Is taken from the Manila Freedom of May 1 and refers to a former resident of Ashe ville: "Th members of the Twenty-ninth Infantry band received a regular ova tion last evening on the Luneta. The medley, composed of old southern airs, was heartily applauded, as were the other popular airs. In each Instance an encore was demanded, and Chief Musician Charles Coe cheerfully re sponded. The reception, given to Mr. Coe's own composition, with national airs 'From Reveille to Taps', was so well described that even at mess call grumblings of 'natural born kickers' were heard, which wound up by a lot of tins, presumably a soldier mess kit, being thrown at the cook. Soldiers swarmed around the bandstand and yelled themselves hoarse at this part of the program. Needless to say, tt had to be repeated. When one consid ers how many of the men had no knowledge of music at the outset, it reflects very great credit on the pa tience and skill of Director Charles Coe, who, through his persistence, has now, made his band one of the leading ones In the Philippines.
