Twice AS MANY
PEOPLE HERE
Great Number Of Summer
Visitors Come to
this City

That the fame of beautiful Hender-
sonville is gradually spreadi dg to all
corners of the South, is demonstrated
today by the fact that there are about
twice as many people here now than
there were last year at this time.
A little investigation will prove this.
The postoff1ce receipts furnish one
method. Taking seventeen days of last
year, from July 1 to II, and the same
period this year, the receipts at the
postofRce lack but 50 of being double
this year what they were last.
The Hendersonville Transfer Com
pany are delivering just twice the
amount of baggage this year that they
were last. There has been a constant
cry about the lack of young men here.
This season there is decided improve
ment IN that respect also. The young
men are beginning to realize the ad-
vantages of this charming city, and
there are without doubt at least five
times as many men here this year than
there were last.
1t is possibly an open question as to
what attracts them here, whether it is
the advantages possessed by the town
itself or whether it is the inf uence
exercised by the many charming girls,
resident and visitors, who are here
during the summer. At all events the
young men are here, and they seem
quite necessary to the success of the
many social functions which are occur
ing.
Every Indication points towards q
record-breaking season. The hotels
are we'll filled and the boarding houses
also.

HOW ABOUT IT NoW7
Since Adams has Won out. this
will be Interesting to Democrats.

The following communication appeared
in the Asheville Gazette News few days
prior to the date for Buncombe County
primaries:I
Will you please give publ cation to this
letter. Five years ago l had the honor of
taking an active part in formulating new
policy in regard to the distribution of
federal patI onage in the republican party
in North CarOlipa; was cursed aud abused
and it was rejected by the leaders of the
party for the reason that if it had been
adopted it would have eliminated the poll
tical boss as a factor in North Carolina
politics. / emphatically stated then that if
they persisted in their bull headed course,
and ignored the vote of the rank and file,
that the republican party in North Carolina
would be torn to pieces, and they them
selves would be ruined.
l leave it to the public to judge as to the
truth of my prophecy. To put it mildly,
the present republican state organization
is no longer entitled to the confidence or
the respect of our people. In their vindi-
ctiVe and assassin like attacks on Congress-
man Blackburn, they were striking ut the
good name of our beloved state. Every
good citizen, regardless of color of poll
tical creed, should make common cause
against them, as he would deadly plague.
Marion Butler, / never think of him or
hear his name, but what also think of a
snake. He is a man without any politics
and also without honor. A viper that was
warmed in the bosom of the good people
of North Carolina, and struck his fangs in
to the hands that fed him, and now these
men, In the hope Uf retaifiDg their place
at the pie counter, are trying to make
B uttler ''boss." The little 'doodlels"
are running all over the state in their
desperate effort to get votes in the state
convention for Buffers man Friday
Harris, Blackburn aid Adams are candi-
dates for state chairman. Mr.. Harris is a
high-toned gentleman and seeks the posi-
ton in order that he may apply his re-
markable powers in uplifting his party out of
the slime aud make it of real service to the
state. Congressman Blackburn is brilliant
young man, and seeks the position In or,ler
that he Hay carry out the win of bis p,rtS
as expressed by the republicans in the state
legislature. Mr. Adams seeks the posi-
ton in order that he may do the will of
his master.
| am not al asplrant for any office now f,
or in the future, but the word political
boss has been erased from nay vocabulary.
I reserve to myself the right to take such
action as in my judgment is to the best
interest of my country. have this advice
to give to the republicans of BuncOmbe
county; next Saturday, June 80, is your
primaries; Spencer Blackburn, the tall
champion of all the people. has lifted aloft
his battle ak, and beheaded the snake, and
now let us all cut off the tail and surely
the body, with neither head nor tail, will
go to pieces. Respectfully,
JAMES PATTERSON.

CANNOT ACCEPT.
Mr.. M. L. Shipman Retires from
Committee Craftsmanship.
News 6 Observer, June 27.)

News g Observer, June o.
Referring to the Congressional
contest in Tenth district, the Asheville
Citizen makes this comment:
THE convention which will meet here
on the 5Oth will be ratifying affair and
the matter of the most interest is the
question of who will be chosen by Mr..
Crawford as chairman of the executive
committee of the district. Naturally
the choice would fall on Mr.. Shipman,
who so successfully managed his cam
paign for the nomination, but as Mr.
Shipman is assistant-commissiOne of
labor and printing with office in Raj
eigh, it is doubtful if he will accept"
The Gazette-News takes a similar
view of the matter and adds:
"Mr. Shipman made SPLENDID chair
man during the last campaign and sue
ceeded in carrying the district for Mr..
Gudger by an increased majority"
Mr.. Shipman authorized The News
and Observer to state that he could OF
accept any committee assignments this
year which would call him away from
Raleigh. 'My first public duty belongs
to the State" he said, "and shall not
only retire as chairman of the Tenth
district executive committee, but from
my county and senatorial COMMITTEES, as
we'll" Mr.. Shipman has been chair
man of his county and senatorial COM
mittees for the past eight years.

To the Land Of the Sky.

Weary with the sultry heat
OF lands that coastward lie,
took the Southern Railway route
To '"Ihe Land of the Sky
Purer, cooler, grew the air,
And fairer grew the scene,
Where the French Broad sings its song
Amid its wales of green;
Where the Smoky Mountains rise,
Atloat in sea of haze
That bathes in charmed mystery
The dreamy summer day.
Eden bloomed on ev'ry hand,
Sleeping in the forest shade.
Wakened by a burst of light
And music of cascade.
Behold at last the capital
OF all this fairyland!
Hendersonville, with health and beauty
blessed,
Boasting at her command.
Healing for the weary SICK;
New Ngor for the well;
Charms of which nor pen nor brush
Could ever rightly tell.

Maceo and Fox, team of negro singers and dancers which is one of the best of it's kind in variety. The songs introduced are new and the dancing is of the sprightliest order. A fine opening number. Charlotte Ravenscroft. young and uncommon ly pretty girl who sings and plays the violin, at the same time making an effect that is charming. Just the type of refined yet popular act that is so aptly appreciated here. Fran scensca Rslding and company; both Miss Bedding and her sketch. Her Friend from Texas" are we'll known here. and although neither have been at the Jacques in three seasons. the reception received at the matinee to- day shows that they have not been forgotten. The playlet Is as bright and the presentation of 1t as delight full as ever. Harry Le Claire; there are few more widely known travesty artists in the line of feminine imper- sonation than Harry Le Claire. His material is always new. his manner of offering it most artistically done, aAd the beautiful part of the charac- terizations Is the utter absence of the grossness which makes acts of sim liar nature unpleasant. Every one will enjoy the number. The Piccolo Midgets. Three years ago the Piccolo Midgets. four in number, appeared at the Jacques and made a splendid | impression by their quaint comedy powers. This return engagement is like the renewal of old laurels and the combination of acrobatics, laugh making and singing which the dimin- utive quartet is now presenting is better than anything 1t has done be. fore. Scott and Wilson, pair of en- tertainsrs who arc new in Water bury. whose act is new and whose method of getting it over the foot lights novel 10 the last degree. Pat Rooney and Marion Bent. Since Pat Rooney made his flying trip to Bos- ton at the close of his local engage ment three seasons ago and was mar ried to Marion Bent the day follow ingI he and his winsome partner have seemed peculiarly belonging to the town folk. Every successive en- gagement of the pair has been an ad- vance in popularity and with the new act. "The Busy Bellboy." their stay here this week should be triumph.

J Julia Rowland will head the new Kilroy X Britton melodramatic, com. 'iquc musical show called. The Cow boy Girl,'' at Polls tonight.

The dramatic part of "A Cowboy Girl' is of the better sort and though the play DO sesses several rather sensational scenes, yet they could not be termed lnrid and are relieved by the comedy element and catchy special music numbers. Among the original song hits that were written for this play are the following: "'rhe Life of Cowboy Girl" All the Worlds ill Love- '.He Treated Me White,' "No Fool Like an Old Fool "Whittling,' Boston Turist Girls -Four Bad Men From Arizona" etc. The Cow. boy Girl" Is from the prolific pen of Lem E.

BANKER YOUNG ACQUITTED

The second trial of j. B. Young,
former president of the Goldield Bank
& Trust company, has resulted in
acquittal. The case went to the jury
Saturday and after a deliberation If
less than an hour a verdict of not
guilty was returned and the defendant
was given his liberty. The trial of the
case occupied two days, the time being
consumed for the most part with the
introduction of evidence for the prose-
cution by George D. Pyne, who repre-
sented the depositors, and District At
torney Henley. Judge H. F. Bartine
represented Young, but introduced lit
tie or no testimony for the defense,
merely permitting the case to go to the
jury upon the evidence submitted. The
verdict was a surprise and disappoint-
ment to many of this community.
