GENERAL HAWLEY AGAIN.

In writing yesterday of General
Joseph Roswell Hawley we were I'M
der the impression that his parents
were North Carolinians by birth and
went North because of their belief in
the freedom Of the slaves. AS mat
ter of fact, Gen. Hawley's father was
a native of Pennington, Conn. who
early in life came to North Carolina
to engage in business. He married
Miss Mary Mcleod. of North Carolina.
and in 1897 the family moved back
to Connecticut while young Hawley
was only ten years old. His father
quit business in North Carolina and
became a Baptist minister, and moved
to Connecticut. His father was a pro-
.nounced labontionist and the son had
the seeds of abolitionism sown in his
heart in his early years and if his
North Carolina mother did not share
the views of her Connecticut husband
there is no record of it. 1t was Sem
ator Hawley who in 1856 sent out let
ters to leading men in Connecticut to
meet in his office for the organization
of the Republican party in that state
and from that time until his death he
was answering in his devotion to the
principles of his party.
Near the close of the war, in which
Gen. Hawley won reputation as a
Federal General, Gen. Hawley on the
capture of Wilmington was detached
by Gen. Schofield to establish base
of supplies there for Sherman's army
and command southeastern North
Carolina He therefore finished his
military service within few miles of
the place where his young eyes first
beheld the beauty of the North Caro-
lima skies. fighting the military clans
of the brave Macs, the kin of his
Scotch mother.

the Citizen is the only correct one in
the whole article Asheville has a
national reputation as a health resort
and there is not better summer and
winter resort in the whole world.
What makes AshevElle such popular
resort? 1t is its matchless climate, it's
grand mountain scenery, its beautiful
location, it's health giving ozone and
it's glorious sunshine and bracing at
mosphere. These are things that give
Asheville worldwide reputation and
attract visitors from every section of
America. In addition to these natu-
raj gifts the enterprising people of
Asheville have built the finest hotels
in the South and they are conducted
in manner to attract eDicures and
all who are looking for the most ele-
CANT accommodations. Nobody leaves
home to go to Asheville to patronize
it's brilliantly lighted bar-rooms. Most
of those who go to Asheville, leave
even more deliberately equipped sa-
looms. They go there for the climate
and the scenery. Not a single visitor
would turn his back upon Asheville
if that beautiful city should close its
saloons, and the argument that sa-
looms must be kept open to attract
the best class of visitors has nothing
in it.
We will say to the Citizen that it
cannot do it's people a greater service
than to hold up Raleigh as model
in many things. One thing is certain:
it has made the solution of the liquor
problem that seems the best possible
for town or city as large as Asheville
or Raleigh, and this is proved be-
cause many who voted against it now
agree that the improvement over bars
is so great as to win their support for
it's continuance. There is not prom
inent or well informed citizen in RAJ
leigh who believes it would be pos
sible ito induce the people of the
capital city to vote to reopen the bars
that so long were licensed here. If
Ashevilie is wise enough to vote out
the saloons it will have the same
experience.

BUT THEY STICK no IT.

The ,Asheville Citizen, like other pa
pers that favor open saloons, and al
ways fight a dispensary if that is the
issue OF. prohibition if that is the issue,
seem to regard the South Carolina
dispensary as an object lesson against
such regulation of the liquor traffic
The Citizen says
"No, nothing must be said about
South Carolina. The dispensary has
become such an abomination in that
State that decent men there shudder
when it's name is mentioned"
If this is true, why does South Car
DINA stick to it through all the years
in the face of the hostility of its two
greatest journals? Why, is It that
nearly every candidate for office de-
clares he will stand by the dispen-
sary? Why is it that no candidate
for office can get much support at the
polls if he declares against the dis
pensary?
The answer is plain: With its evils,
it is the best solution that has yet
been tried in that State, even with the
drawbacks of State system which
have been objected to in some quart
ers in that State. There will be de-
vised better system one of these
says, but one thing is certain: the sa-
loon is the worst system ever devised
by any State or community. 1t in
vites to drinking and drunkenness; it
makes for corruption in politics. it is
an enemy of every boy who grows
into manhood near its location.

The demand for "a respectable Re-

coming from Dugald Dalgettys in poll
tics is a pretty severe indictment of

it now exists. Would it be any more
