"Yes, the . impression prevails among the Repub licans in Greensboro that District At torney Holton's days in office are numbered," said a politician who came in from that town this morning. "I , tot it from a reliable source that Mr. ' Holton received a telegram from Presi dent Roosevelt one night this week, v requesting the district attorney to clean . up his docket -as quickly as practica ble."

N Concord is indeed in the midst of winter. The freeze continues and last night added much tj the discom fort and lrs from the present freeze. Everywhere this morning were signs of the times and conditions. Limbs from trees lay everywhere, in every yard and at many ptaces blocked the street. The city was in darkness, no lights being turned on. The condit ion made it dangerous to run the plant and only one attempt was made to light the town. The wires of the telephone arid telegraph companies suffered much The Coneord Telephone.Co, will lose heavily, in many places their plant is in bad shape. This condition seems to be general through the South. The Southern Railroad has taken their work crews and all available workers and put them on the line. The various crews work ing on the double track grading have been put to repairing poles and wires. Neighboring towns suffer as we do in voncord. 1 he following from Spencer to the Charlotte Observer re ates a death: . "This place is enveloped in ice, and telephone and electric wires are prac tically out of use, a number of them being on the ground. An unknown negro who was passing from his work in the Southern shops here tonigh was instantly killed by an electric wire striking him to the ground. The man grappled with the dangling wire for moment and died. A bystander who attempted to knock the wire off of the dying man was terribly shocked and knocked a distance of ten feet by t'M current which burned out the life of the negro." . .

The receiving line formed in the beau tiful lodge room and welcomed the guest, ' while (he hospitable . Elks mingled among their ' guests-to add every comfort and assure happy mo ments through the. evening.

Progressivijtn has obtained such a firm hold on Japan since the signing of the treaty of Ports, mouth, according to dispatches from Tokio, that- a movement has been started there for the retirement of the Japanese alphabet for English charac ter. , This movement is making such rapid headway that already, 'a new Tokio newspaper has appeared with the news printed in English and Japan ese, in parallel columns, Japanese words retained, but the English letter ing '. being used. From this fact, it is generally believed that the Mikado and his immediate advisors are inclined to look favorably upon the eventual abolition of the Japanese characters, now considered hampering and cum bersome.
