Citizen interviewed DR.. ". G. Brown

ARRANGEMENTS to build the hotel
Il shall return in about month,
he said, land Immediately begin work.
I expect to bring fifteen or twenty
skilled worlzmen from the North to have
a sort of general supervision Of the
work, and employ about $50 men here.
The hotel will contain between 375 and
400 rooms, instead Of 200, as heretofore
was our plan. We own thirty acres Of
land near Biltmore, with the Swannanoa
running at the foot of the incline, and
expect to expend at least $40O, 900 be-
fore completing the work. We expect
to complete building by the first of
next January, and possibly by the first
of December.
''The hotel will be frame structure
and finished on the inside in white oak.
Only Western North Carolina woods
will be used in the construction. The
parties furnishing the capital have
