NEEDS A KILLING.
The Man Who Will Curse Over the
Phone at the Operator in the Central
Office-FauIt Not Always With the
Operator.
Greensboro Record.

Greensboro Record.
A man who will curse over the
phone is exceedingly short on man
ners. He is a misfit and wOrse-from
q moral standpoint. The public
would be surprised at the number who
do this. 1t is bad enough to swear
over the phone when talking to
another man, but when one pitches
in and curses the operator at the CEN
trail office there should be some law
to fit the case. He might rig up some
kind of an excuse when talking, Tor
instance, in a jocular vein to friend,
but when he gets mad because he can
not get the proper connection, even
when it is known that it is not the
fault of the operator, and goes TO
eursing her it is about time he was
taken out and shot. To show how
unreasonable a man can be, we recall
an instance that happened one Sun.
dav some time ago. A man called
I'D q certain residence; central rang
the phone and no one answered. The
man yelled at her to ring again ana
still no one answered; then he cursed
her and not satisfied with this, called
up the chief operator and cursed her
for failure to get the number he want
ed. Next day it was ascertained that
the residents of the house he wanted
were not at home during the entire
day. Right here is where he needed
killing. We can prove it by every
one OF the ladies at the central office.

Compliment to Hon. Claude Kitchin.
Wilmington Messenger.

That was Il compliment paid Repre-
sentative Claude kitchin, of the Sec
ond district, by Chairman Miller of
the house committee on claims. He
appointed Mr.. kitchin chairman of
the subcommittee, This is an i'm
portant position and is always given
to member of the majority side of
the committee. This, of course, is
now Republican, Mr.. Miller said he
would depart from the rule and give
the place to Mr. kitchin because of
the latter's faithful and splendid
service on the committee. There is
now before this committee claim of
two and a half million dollars bv
torpedo boat builders who wish to be
reimbursed for losses sustained on
their contracts during the war with
Spain. The claims presented to the
house are investigated by this sub
committee before they are taken up
by the full committee. The members
of the former do most of the work of
investigation. So it can be seen
what an important and responsible
position is the one to which Mr..
kitchin has been appointed. The
manner of his receiving this assign
ment must be very gratifying to him
and his friends.

Mr.. Pou Advises Against Mysteries.
StatesvilIe Landmark.


In the report of the proceedings
of the House of Congress on the 18th
the Associated Press gives thefOllow-
ing:
Mr.. Pou On. CO. declared that tho
81 100000 campaign fund OF the
Republican party at the last election
had made it sure that there would
be no satisfactory railroad rate leg
islation, nor any revision OF the
tariff.
Turning his attention to the incl
dent of the election of Mrs. Minor
Morris from the executive office OF
the White House, Mr.. Pou expressed
great regret that hysteria had been
INDUCED in to magnify that incident.
81 was at the White House that
day." he said, land was reminded OF
the fact that we had 25 Presidents OF
the United States. There were the
portraits of three who had fallen at
the hand of an assassin, about one
in every eight.
81 do not believe that gentlemen
should be too swift to criticise the

ident of the United States should be

dinates may have gone little too
far"
Mr.. Pou is right. The Morris i'll
cident was unfortunate. 1t ought to
have been better handled, and the
White House employees have made
the matter worse by trying to cover
it up. But there is no necessity for
going into Mysteries over an incident
which was brought on by a cranky
woman. The Democrats who are
trying to make a national issue out
of it are making themselves ridicu-

1t has been said 1.-The proper way
to Judge the prosperity of a town is
by the amount of adveI Using seen
in its local paper This statement
Is correct. The local newspapers the

Using is done. The intelligent mer-
chdnt who advertises his wares
through the columns of his local
paper pushes forward the develop
ment OF his town as a whole.
Largely, the way to Judge a town
Is by the character of the advertise

IN the local paper-whether large or
small. The out of town trade drawn
to the town is influenced in this way
and ultimately builds the city 10y

GREWSOME TALE

Buffalo, N. Y., March 29--Confes sions made to the grand jury by Row lend J. Conover, the contractor who has been convicted of grand larceny in the first degree for his connection with a county contract for the remov- al of bodies from an old cemetery, will result in the issue of warrants fol the arrest of twenty-three former city and county officials.
 Eleven indictments were found yes terday by the grand jury on the state ments Conover made before it.
 Conoyer's statements before the grand jury yesterday are substantial 1y that he made profitable contract with the county for the removal of the bodies and their reburial. He made an agreement with the officials who awarded the contract that they should receive one-third of the gross pay naents of the county to him. The mon- ey was divided in the county treas urer's office from time to time, as it vas paid to Conover.
