CrawfOrd's majority 965.
M. L. Shipman, WHO has been muchly
interested in the fight in the tenth dis
trict and who has aided Mr.. Crawford
and Chair man Lee in the conduct of the
campaign, was here today en- route to

above were approximately correct but
that any irregularities would only in

1000. The democrats of the district have
won great victory and you can say for
me that it matters not whom the repub-

district will give even greater demo-
cratic majority than it did this year.
The old Tenth is solidly democratic and
she is going tc stay that way" Chair
man Lee was also here today from Way
nesvilIe. He is naturally greatly pleas
ed at the result of Tuesdays election.
The result, however, was no surprise
to MIR. Lee. He had the thing figured
out before the voting commenced and
with him it was only matter Of ajor-

1t is pointed out that Mr.. Crawford
not only defeated Mr.. Britt worse than
Mr.. Gudger defeated Judge Ewart but
also that he has probably added another

1'THE FINEST RESORT TOWN
ON THE GLOBE"
So says W. A. Smith. Esq. in re-
ference to the Future of
this City.

w. A. Smith, popularity known as
"Bill'' Smith, altho' suffering from
numerous bruises and scratches receiv-
in runaway last week, could still
talk of his favorite topic, the subject
nearest his heart at all times, tthe fu-
ture of Hendersonville.
eyes, SIR he said. "I mean exactly
what 1 say, and do not believe I am
using extreme language when [ say
that Hendersonville will eventually be
the finest resort town on the face of the
globe, and all we have to do to make it
so is to be patient, to do what is right,
and to work energetically I under
stand the engineers have finished their
work on the surveys of the proposed
lake. The next step will be to find the
cost of the proposed dam at Long Bridge.
With this data before us we will
Then know just where we stand.
"There is no place that I know of
which will have the advantages pos.
sessed by this town when the lake is
finished. Where else in the world will
you find level plateau of $50 square
miles 2250 feet above sea level, with
some Of the grandest mountains on the
American continent towering all around
you, and with a magnificent body of
water, like the lake will be Nesting at
tains? The large percent of sunshine
we enjoy here we have in common with
many other parts of the United States,
but in many respects the advantages
possessed by this city are absolutely
unique and are not enjoyed by the peo-
pie of towns only 20 miles distant. The
freedom from all fogs and dampness is
most important consideration, and as
say, the natural advantages combined
now with this great lake will make of
Hendersonville one of the most if not
the most famous resort town in the
world. The mere fact of a gigantic
body of water, surrounded by noun
tains, under an ever blue sky, is suffi-
cient to guarantee that condition.
''What do 1 know about the Appa-
lachian Interurban Railroad? Well, /
know Fright smart" but mainly that
the promoters of this road are actively
at work and the prospects are salts
factory. In this connection l may say
there is a bright outlook for an electric
road to Asheville. A Mr.. White, of
Skyland, has great confidence in the
earning ability of such an enterprise
and is ready to back his faith with
money. Yes, sir consider the chances
of an electric line to Asheville as being
much more than a remote possibility,
and when it comes it's going to be one
more good thing for the town. But
possibly what will affect our material
interests fully as much as anything'is
this new Greenville railroad. You are
probably not aware that the company
has completed surveys to Zirconia, but
such is the fact. And Zirconia is only
seven little miles from the city of Hen

more on that subject today

CRAWFORD'S BIG VOTE.
He Has Beaten Prof. Britt By An
Increased Majority Over The
Vote of Two Years Ago.

Asheville, Nov. 9.-The official and
semi-official returns from the tenth
congressional district are coming in
slowly but it is now evident that Mr..
Crawtord's majority will be between
900 and LOCO. The official and semi
official returns from every county now
being heard from increases Mr.. Craw-
ford's majority and 1t is practically con-
ceded that he has carried the district
by greater majority than Mr.. Gudger
did two years ago. The republicans on
election night realized that they were
beat and that Mr.. Britt had been de-
feated. They claimed, however, that
Mr.. Britt had made better race than
Judge Ewart did two years ago and this
seemed to give some encouragement.
Now it appears that Mr.. Britt suffered
q worse defeat at the hands of Mr.. Craw
ford than Judge Ewart did at the hands
of Mr.. Gudger. To-day the indications
are that Mr.. Crawford has a major
ity of between $50 and 1000. No
one seems to haYe heard officially from
Macon. Both the Republicans and
Democrats claim to have carried this
county. The majority in Macon, will,
however, be small eiGher way. With
Macon left, Crawford has an apparent
majority of 965. Following is the official
and semi-oficial Yote-which is regard
ed as conservative and correct:

DENTISTRY IN BRAZIL.
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
In Rio de Janeiro there are quite q
large number of Brazilian dentists,
some of whom are prospering, and 9TH
ers are not. There are also number
of American dentists who have plenty
of work at high prices, and while the
cost of living and their expenses are
very high, they have large incomes.
The advertised prices are 80 to SO
milreis per hour $50 to SIG gold,) the
actual charges being a little below
these rates. These successful den
lists, however. are men of experience
and attainments and would do well
anywhere. To secure a license one
must pass not only rigid technical
examination, but must read and write
Portuguese fiuently. The Brazilians
who can supply first-class practice are
limited in number and the trade is
well controlled, so that it would be
difficult for new dentists to secure an
opening. American dental supplies
are popular and well represented here.
