.HO! FOR THE WEST
Editors and Lawyers to
the Mountains.
The Two Big Meetings Of This Week
Are to Be Held at Ashe-
vile and at Tox-
away.
away.

| Association at ToXaway.
The editors get into session first, as
they meet Tuesday night at Kenilworth
| Inn, Biltmore, after an excursion on
Tuesday afternoon. The Virgin<' edi-
tors who meet with the North Caro-
lima editors are expected at Asheville
on Monday, and these Will join in
making the occasion a great one. The
lawyers meet on Wednesday at TOX-
away Inn, Lake Toxaway, and will be
in session for three days. These too
will have great meeting.
With the editors and the lawyers,
and their combined wisdom in the
west it is expected that the weight
of that section with the mountains it
has on hand will become so over
towering that it will tilt up the east
ern section. 1t may be that the edi
tors will send over a delegate to greet
the lawyers and tell them how to sue
coed in law and that the lawyers will
reciprocate by sending one of their
number to the editors to tell them
how to run newspaper. Each pro-
fession is accustomed to giving ad
vice and this is their opportunity,
though the lawyers will probably have
the best of it, as they get cash for
their talk.
The Press Association.
The Press Association meets at
Kenilworth Inn, BiltmOre, on July 4,
5 and 6 where a rate of $3.50 a day
