The Flu Sitution.

DR.. Smith is out from his recent
attack of the flu and so is Mayor
Hill and a meeting was held at five
o'clock this afternoon to determine
whether to reopen the churches,
schools and moving picture shows.
The meeting was too late to give the
action of the Board in this after
moons paper.
The general opinion seems to be
that the trouble is blowing over
here, but that the trouble is worse
in the county. We trust however,
if the health authorities decide to
reopen that every one will observe
due precaution since we do not be-
lieve the danger is near over.
We trust our people will not con-
gregate any more than possible and
the children in the school should be
warned not to play together, and
they should be provided with hand
kerchiefs and when they sneeze they
should place it over their nose
In the churches and the moving
picture shows the people should sit
in every other seat and keep as far
away as possible from each other.
1t is very hard to tell the difference
between a cold and the flu in its in
cipient stages.
DR.. E. L. Strickland, of this city
ronOrts two cases
DR.. Grady, seven cases with three
pneum onia.
DR.. Putney, of Elm City, reports
four cases.
The health authorities report tt
date 1,138 cases in town and tht
county. All the physicians have no
reported however, and these ane o
course not all the cases that have oc

DR.. Smith requests US to thank hi
friends and neighbors for their kind

Lovelace is Not to be Executed.

Raleigh, N. c., Feb. 23.-"When
exercise my constitutional authority
to change a death sentence, I am
strongly with the rights of the Gov
ernor in making it a term of years
instead of Imprisonment for life" -"
said Governor T. w. Bickett yester-
day committing to thirty years i'm
prisonment the death sentence pro-
nounced upon Dennis Lovelace, of
Rutherford county in April 1919,
for killing of his father-in-law.
The action of the governor was
based on the presenttion of the fact
that the prisoner moved by sudden
anger at the interference of his faith
er-in-law, in his own domestic affairs
committed the crime without premed
itation. It was taken upon recon-
mendation of eleven of the twelve
jurors who convicted, the solicitor
who tried the case, two justices OF
the supreme court who reviewed the
case on appeal, twenty-five hundred
persons of Rutherford county includ
ing the county officials and with the
Judge who tried the case interposing
no objection to communication.
Governor Beckett took occasion in
his statement of reasons to re-state
his position on Communication of deatt
sentences particularly in the commu
tation to a term of years instead
of life imprisonment.

 "Even if WrangeFs intentions had | been honest he could never have done for Russia. I pity very much the officers who were misled by him. All they did was to give more territory to Poland and spill much blood on both sides-'
 General Brusiloff was told that the latest casualty reports from the front showed that 10000 of the best troops of the Soviet army were slaughtered in one days fighting gels defences at Perkop at the northern end of the Crimean benin su1a.
 While I did not see the battlefield, I knew the positions could not be taken without heavy loss of life," said General Brusi1off. 'It was inevitable because of the geographical position of the isthmus as well as the strength of thief ortifications which had to be reached before Crimea could be pen etrated."
 General Brusiloff was asked if he thought that the anti-Bolshevik forces under General Petlura and General Ba1achovitch could menace | the security of the Soviets. The vet | eral smiled, as he replied: l "The first law of a successful gen.
 eral is to have an army. So far as
 know there is no army left to fight
 against the Red army. AS for Pet lura, I know him slightly. He was
 never a military man. He was con- 1 nected solely with the Zeemstvos." "Do you think Poland will again
