Mr.. Causey spoke of the pleasant rela-
tions that existed between Mr.. Ashley
and his co-woE kers, and paid him de-
serving compliments. Mr., Ashley was
quite taken ahack, but expressed his ap
probation in words that showed how
deeply he felt all that he said.
There are lots of good men IN Raleigh
and useful citz rs; but the CHRONICLE
wants to say now what it has long be-
lieved: Mr.. Ashley is one of the most
valuable citizens in North Carolina.
There is no real progress IN which he
does not take interest, and there is no
good movement, industrial or political,
which does not fad champion in him.
Raleigh people have special cause to
esteem him because of his earnest labors
for her advancement. We are lied to see
that he enjoys SO largely the esteem Of
the men with whom he labors and whose
work be superintends. We believe
that 10 town can be found where the
relations existing between employee anc
| employer are more pleasant and cordla
than ia Raleigh, and it speaks volumes
for the justice and appreciation OF al
parties It is pleasant to know tina
such relations exist here. 1t is no
always SO, or so everywhere. Employer
are too often hard, exacting and grind
ing; and employees are too often negll
gent and not Interested enough IN thel
employers interest. Let US all II
