A GICAT OPPORTUNITY. TUESDAY. APRII, 23. 1907. WANTED A PARDON BO AID The recent episode of the pardoning of the White Brothers brought very forcibly to the at tention of tbe people of the State the necessity of having a pardoning board. Doubtless cases had previously arisen which impressed the fact upon some but the State-wide inter est in this particular case sufj ficed to bring the matter home to more people than any similar case of previous years. Many States have pardoning boards we haven't tbe facts and figures at hand that would enabled us to say just bow many and we believe it has been found to work admirably. The pardon ing of a criminal, involving as it does tbe possibility of bring ing injury to a commonwealth as a consequence of his being turned loose on the public, is too large a power to be lodged in the hands of one man and we doubt if any Governor would object to being relieved of the responsibility ' which such a .power entails. The following very sensible statement of the case is from a recent issue of The Wilmington Messenger: It strikes us that Governor Glenn acted most properly and most judic iously when he declared that he could not entertain the application for pardon in the White case. That case demonstrates most emphatical ly the necessity of a pardoning board in this State. We feel sure the Srovernor would be delighted were he relieved of the duty and responsi bility of acting on applications for pardon. This responsibility should not be placed on one man. It is him too much power and giving him placing too great weight on his shoulders. Time and again just such cases as that of the Whites may arise when the governor cannot act jn any case. The question of pardon should be one left to a board not to a single individual. We hope the very unfortunate posi tion in which the governor finds himself in this case and which is likely to arise at any time with any man who raav succeed Mr. Glenn, will cause the people of the State to recognize the necessity of the es tablishment of a pardoning board." Look out for that hospital; it's coming along. We hope to be able soon to announce that the fulr amount of $12,000 has been subscribed. Rat-pits or no rat-pits is tbe question which is bothering Concord just uow. Does the amended charter allow them or prohibit them; in one place, it is stated, the charter provides for them, in another it banishes them. A municipal fight is on in the Cabarrus capital and rat pits or no rat-piis is the issue. Such little matters as prohibi tion, street bonds or municipal ownership do not bother Con cordians. They have the weight ier and much more important problem of rat pits to deal with. The editor of this paper has never seen a rat-pit and would'nt know one if he met it in the big road. Other State" papers, The Charlotte Chionicle and The Wilmington Messenger being of the number, being of an enquir ing turn of mind, when the weighty problem came into pub lic view expressed their ignor ance and proceeded to investi gate and interrogate with a view to ascertaining, if possible, the exact nature of rat-pits; to as certain per chance if 'twere some new disease, a new name for pumpkin pie or just a everyday, aircastle. The Mm ... . a ccra. rriDune came to tneir as sistance and explained that a rst-ft was a place where all rats car-t in the neighborhood are The Oazette to Girt Two Abso lately Free Ten-Day Trips to Jamestown Exposition to Yean Ladles -Vol in Con test of Lerie Proportions In attfarated Two Volaable and Handsome Second Prises to be Glren Away. To spend ten days at a great exposttion, where are gathered together in one magnificent panoramic display the works of beauty of all nations and where one may touch elbows with peo pies from every . quarter of the globe, where the latest and best products of man's fertile brain and crafty hand are assembled from every nook and corner of the universe, is a privilege not to be despised. And when that trip can be had absolutely free of expense to the one who en joys it well, that's a proposi tion we think will appeal to practically all of us. The Gazette has perfected arrangements to send to tbe Jamestown Ter-Centennial Ex position, which opens Friday of this week and continues until late in the fall, two young ladies to be chosen by tbe paper's subscribers, paying their railroad fare both ways, Pullman fare both ways, board, incidental expenses, admission to the grounds, etc. This is quite an undertaking and tbe perfecting of the details has re quired some time. One of these young ladies is to be chosen from Uastonia town ship and the other from Gaston county, outside of Gastonia township and including Clover and Kings Mountain. By read ing the full page advertisement to be found on the supplement of to-day s Gazette, the full de tails as to how the voting to be done may be obtained The voting begins at once. In addition to these two free trips we will give two band some and valuable second prizes, one to the young lady in each district who seenres the second highest number of votes To tbe young lady who obtains tbe second highest vote in Gas tonia township will be given handsome quartered oak side board, a piece of furniture that is useful and at the same time an ornament to any home. It is, on display at the furniture store of the Williams Furniture company, in tne uraig and Wilson building, and may be seen by any one who wishes to insprct it. To tbe young lady in the other district wbo se cures tne second nignest num ber of votes will be given handsome solid gold lady's wafch, seven-jewel Elgin movement, wnicn may be seen at the jewelry store of the Tot rence-Morris Company. On Friday, May 3d, there will appear in The Gazette for the first time the names of the young ladies who have been voted on up to that time and the respective votes of each. In each issue thereafter this list will appear revised and brought up-to-date each time. In each issue of the paper there will appear a dated coupon which is good , for ten votes if cast before the expiration of the AparaxJrnalali S3.5C9 Is In Stint - Members ol Committee Ac lively at work to Secure too Kemalader-Oatlook Encoaraf In. " ; ;,';' The Gazette is unable to ob tain reports up-to-date ' from all of the solicitors for subscriptions to stock for building the hospit al. Reports from four wbo 'are at work in Gastonia show that approximately $6,000 or half of the entire amount has already been subscribed. This does not include subscriptions from any of the physicians of the county. At the recent mass, meeting members of the medical profes sion stated that there was reason able assurance that tbe doctors would raise $2,500 of the $12,000 Adding this amount to tbe $6, 000 subscribed gives an approxi mate total of $8,500 in sight for the hospital. When tbe fact is considered that the subscription papers for this fund have been in the hands of the solicitors for onlv a week, the results seems most encourag ing indeed. It will probably take longer to secure the balance than it did to get the present amount but tbe confident belief obtains that within two or three weeks the committee will be able to report tbe fnll amount subscribed. As yet many persons have not been approached and the committee wishes it stated that they would be glad to have any persons, wno nave inadvert ently been overlooked, give their subscription to any ox.e of the commtttee. It will take work to secure the remainder of the amount but tbe friends and proraoteis of toe hospital are greatly encouraged by the start made.

There has been a great deal of building in Gastonia during the past few month and, while at pres ent there is a little let-up in the building line, the prospects are for a pretty brisk business during the summer.

It is one thing to claim, bnt another thing to back up tbe claim by a statement that, if I not proven true, there will be j no charge for the service or tbe goods. It is in this way that J. H. Kennedy & Co. sell Hyomei, for they have so much faith in its power to cure all foims of catarrh and bronchial troubles that they give an abso lute, unqualified guarantee with every outfit that if tbe remedy does not cure the money will be refunded. A complete Hyomei outfit costs but $1.00, making it not only a very pleasant method of treatment, but most economical. Ap 19,23,26.
