JOSEPH PEARSON CALDWELL.

When Joseph Pearson Caldwell died, Southern
journalism lost a shining light For forty
years and more he had been identified with
the business of newspaper making. From the
composing room which he entered at the age
of fourteen, he climbed steadily upward until
disease removed him from the Office of manag
ing editor of one of the Scuths greatest news
papers His intimate practical knowledge of the
mechanical end of newspaper making together
with his conspicuous natural gifts and his
profound aud varied knowledge OF men and
things placed him in the forefront of those
whose lifes work is Journalism. Among the
great editors of the South he held high place
and in his native State his work gave him pre-
en1inence
His most conspicuous success was with the
Charlotte O1sefrer. In 1892. in conjunction
with Mr. D. A. Tompkin, Mr. Caldwell pnr-
chased the Chronicle. The name was
changed Is the Charlotte Daily Observer and
the new paper began at once to grow. At the
time Of his death his paper had become orc
of the most widely known and influential i'll
the South-Joseph Caldwell made IT, He gave
the best years of his life and the finest powers
Of his mature manhood to its creation and It's
success. He was happy in having lived to see
the child of his genius grow great.
When the stroke that laid him low came
two years ago and he realized that his day CT
active service was done he retired to the home
Of A friend in Morgantown to await the end.
He patiently rested there until the summons
came and when on yesterday 1t came, ii found
him ready-cheerful and unafraid.

ergetic, and faithful enforcement Of the law
CARRYING capital punishment Is Of untold value
in the protection Of human life and we feel
constrained TO say that the ease with which
murderers evade Just punishment for their
crimes In many States is crying evil and one
Of the moving factors in making homicide 30
much more frequent in our country than in other
civilized lands.
There Is crime other than murder for
which there is no adequate punishment but
death, and death after the speediest trial that
can be given with view to the doing of abso-
lutte justice. We venture to say that an orderly
execution after prompt and fair trial of the
brute guilty of the crime to which we refer
is the greatest protection the women of our
State have from insult Would the anti capital
punishment people care to take stand that
man deserves to breathe the breath Of life who
has been guilty of criminal ASSAULT
Those who would escape the chair should
not slay outrage the helpless The law does
not STAY out OF vengeance. Those who insist
that 1t be enforced do without hate or pas
sion In their hearts. Could they speak life into
inanlmate clay and restore the one cruelty
slain. gladly would they restore to life and
hope those marked for death by the finger of
Justice But this being beyond the power Of
mortals. they can but enforce the law that life
may be made safer and the murderously IN
-riihed be warned by tire fate of those who stay.
