as low as any patriotic American should ask to
buy them. Experience has taught US that in the
manufacture OF many articles that should be
and now are produced in this country we can
not compete with European manufacture, and
part Gu. arly with the manufacture OF England.
Many reasons conduce to this end. such as the
larger Accommodations OF capital in the older
countries, the longer and more permanent es-
Enlistment of their manufacturing institu.
tions, the lower rate which capital commands
In an old country; but the important and the
chief reason why the European manufacturer
can undersell the American is the cheapness of
labor on that side of the water. We can not
compete with them in. the production many
articles unless the price OF labor in America is
reduced to the European standard. am not
in favor of protecting any interest which does
not require protection, nor am in favor of
protecting any industry which we do not have
natural facilities for m aintaining. Iwould not
be in favor of helping any man or set of men
by law to grow coffee and tea in a dollhouse.
So largely does the wages OF labor enter into
the price of manufactured articles i'll this coun-
try that conceive it would be impossible to
maintain the great lines OF our manufactures
without a substantial protective tariff upon for
eign goods.
Furthermore, the moment we allow our home
manufactures to be broken down, the so-called
''monopolies" and trusts upon which the
free-trader loves to descant are only removed
would in that event soon learn by sad expe-
rience, as has been learned by several countries
trying the experiment, that we would be re-
CURED to pay more for the manufactured arti-
cles than they cost under the policy OF protec-
ton.
The President does not even suggest the fact
THAT there is nothing at all to prevent any per-
son among our 60, 900, 900 of population from en-
gaging in any manufacturing enterprise prom
Using large rewards. Money is plenty in the
market to be loaned at six per cent. and even
less rate. If manufacturing enterprises
promise to capital such large rewards under
what the President is pleased to term our
vicious and illogical" tariff laws why will
capitalists, who are certainly as shrewd and
farseeing in money matters as the President
himself, loan their money at four, five and six
per cent?
It will be found in almost every instance that
the prices of protected articles now as COM
pared with four years ago have been reduced.
Wooden goods OF nearly every description are
cheaper now than they were in the good old
Democratic days of free trade wooden
blanket worth 80 before the war can now be
bought for five, and the price of almost every
article of clothing in general use among the
laborlng classes has been reduced in like pro-
portion. Salt, one of the most necessary arti-

A Tornado.

A MI. Vernon. m, dispatch Of the
Goth gives the following account of a
tornado that visited that place last
Sunday:
Mt Vernon. H. Feb ga cyclone
visited this city yesterday afternoon at
o O'Clock, destroying nearly 300 resi-
dences and places of business. and UNI
housed from LOO 10 1880 people. In
the falling Of walls many people were
buried under the debris. and shirty-hve
were killed, while twice Ms many more
we're injured: eight or ten so seriously
that their lives are despaired of. Pre-
ceding the destructive wind was a
heavy fall Of rain for half an hour,
which drove all the Inhabitants to
shelter. THIS Was followed by a slight
hail storm, accompanied by lightning.
and then n furious wind. which formed
into a funDel-slIaped cyclone, which
struck the southwestern portion OF The
city, ~unroodng everything In its path.
The storm took a diagonal course
through the business part Of the city,
unroodng and dismantling the supreme
court building, and crushing the Metho.
dist and Baptist churches into worth
less masses. At one point the destruc-
tive element jumped upwards and
missed several stores and residences,
but soon pounced down again, tearing
down heavy brick buildings, wrenching
and tearing frame structures out OF
semblance and making a useless mass
Of the solid walls of the court house
that occupied thepublic square. Crows
block, a thr,e story brick building,
was demolished, and then taking fire,
was consumed, its owner being caught
Ia the falling walls, was cremated.
Across the street was a row of two
story frame buildings, with an occasi.
onal brick building. which caved in, and
the frames crushed out of shape,
Against each other, neal the corner to
the south were a lot of frame struc-
lures WHICH were blown down and
burned up entirely. The storm was
over In three minutes, and the people
who were unframed gave aid to the
needy. Loss of property amounts to

Its Celebration Among Catholics in
AsheviIIe on Wednesday Last.

Wednesday was observed in all
all the Catholic churches through
out Christendom as the Festival of
the ASSUMPTION, the greatest of the
festivals in honor of Mary. A ira
dition. which is confirmed by a
beautiful engraving in an old Mis-
sal at st Laurenee's church, IN THIS
city, printed in the year 1904, says
that the Blessed Mother was warned
of her death three days in advance.
The apostles. who were scattered in
different places preaching the Cos
pei, were assembled in Jerusalem at
the same time. Mary died in the
same room where the last supper
took place, surrounded by the apns-
tie, On the light o. the 18th of Au-

MR.. NJ. D. LONG, OF BALTIMORE.
Purchases the Interest ofC. E. Gra-
ham in the Graham Shoe Factory.

For sons days past, the CITIZEN
has been aware of the fact that
change in the members Of the firm
composing tie Graham Shoe Co,
in this city, was contemplated, hut
not until yesterday morning did we
ascertain the facts in The matter
which are as follows:
Mr.. NJ. D. Long, of Baltimore.
Md J., member of the firm OF II.
Conc & Sons, Of that city, has pur-
chased the undivided interest of
Mr. c. E. Graham, in the Graham
Shoe Factory, of this city; the price
paid We are una BILE to ascertain. The
firm name OF The Asheville entcr-'
prise VIII remain unchanged Tor the.
present. The present iactory will
be enlarged InseverY branch, and
new Building will be erected at the
Old Depot, in a very short while,
in which the more extensive manu-
facture of shoes will be carried on.
All the machinery will be run by
steam, and new machinery will be
added to the factory a: once. The
company will make the manufac-
ture of the medium-grade of shoes 4
specially, and special orders will re-
ceive careful attention. The Gra-
ham Shoe Factory is one of the
manufacturing enterprises that has
come to Asheville to stay, and we
are glad to record its increasing
success and prosperity. The grade
of work turned out at this factory
is unsurpassed anywhere else in the
Union, and under the new manage
ment, the grade, if anything, will
be made better than ever. The
products of this enterprise find
ready sale throughout the Southern
States, and at times the firm cannot
begin to fill its orders. Mr.. Long
will bring his family to Asheville,
and will in the future make this
city his permanent residence. He
says he is delighted with our beau
tiful city, and the CITIZEN well
comes him most cordially. We
wish him and the interest with
which he has identified himself.
continued success and prosperity.

AT MRS. PoRTNER's.
The Elegant Entertainment Thur
day Evening--A Grand Success.

day EVening--A Grand Success.
The entertainment on Thursday even
ing at Mrs. Portner's was the most enjoy
able affair of the season thus far, and
even at the expense of that modesty
which is characteristic of this paper, we
must EXPRESS the wish for repetition,
by the ladies at whose hands the success
ofthe evening was achieved. Professor
Rolling, of New Orleans, opened the gay
scene with the finest lingering of the
Piano, and again and again did this enin-
ent artist receive well earned plaudits.
Following him in natural order came
Madam Rolling with song and she too,
obtained marked tribute.
While it is impossible to do justice to
each of the ladies, personally, it may not
be inyidious to note that one ofthe most
charming features of the evening was
the rescitation of Ronald Clair" by
Philadelphia's distinguished elecution-
ist, Miss Alice W. Turner, who SO feel
ingly threw into the piece all that
pathos, force and dignity, which Is need
ed in its proper rendering. In her
humorous recitations she was equally
happy.
Miss Testard. Miss Picard and Miss
Hunter, all of New Orleans, discoursed
sweet music on the piano. The cast of
the evenings entertainment embraced
Mrs. j. 7. Morel. of New 0rle ans, Miss
Alice w. Turner, of Philadelphia, Miss
L. Morel, of New Orleans, Misses Rena,
Grace and Bessie Portner, and Miss
Gussie West, of AsheYille. The costumes
were all in beautiful taste and were we'll
harmonized. Need we say that the
Iovelinnas nf all carried off fha nalna as
it always must when brought into cons
petition even with the most tasteful
attire.
Mr.. Portner as Romeo, was Romeo
indeed, and many of the sterner sex
enyied him. Mr.. Shippen, of Philadel.
phia. in the character of "Spinster Love-
Iiness, showed forth in pantomime,
and If the fitness of costume, fell behind
that of the other ladies, we must say that
his smiles were not unbecoming.
The generous provision by the hostess
Ior the inner-self was not the least taste-
ful part of the entertainment
