Town Politics.

Interest in the approaching town
election is beginning to warm up. The
registration books closed last Saturday
with total number of 3o7 registered.
1t is generally admitted that the DEM
ocratic ticket Is very strong one. The
candidates are all well known, strong.
consistent Democrats, men who decline
to sacrifice their political principles for
the reward of political Office.
It Is said a large number Of well known
republicans have indicated their in
ention of voting the democratic ticket,
believing the towns interests should be
placed above party loyalty.
AS . well known business man said,
Monday, the ticket is composed of cap
able, energetic business men, men who
intend to stand on their record as made
during their term Of office, who will
give the city clean, honest and faithful
administration.
The ticket will receive the undivided
support OF all democrats of Henders n
vile, and undoubtedly of all others who
wish safe, conservative, progressive
administration and an absolute enforce
ment Of the city's ordinances.

Pastor A. R. Love to Leave


Pastor A. r. Love, of the Baptist
Church, offered his resignation at the
evening service last Sunday, in order
that he might accept call to Peters
burg, Va. 1t was reluctantly accepted,
and then Pastor Love was immediately
called by his present congregation, but
declined. DR.. Love will leave this
week for his new and wider
field of work. His successful pas
torate of six years has endeared
him to his congregation of over 90
members, and 1t is with sincere and
heartfelt regret that they see him leave
this city. AS a Sunday School teacher
it is said Mrs. Love has few superiors,
her methods being revealation to
those not familiar with her work along
this line. DR.. Love and bis wife carry
with them the best wishes of his church
and Of their many friends for the fullest
measure Of success in their new field of
endeavor, and both will always be re-
membered with the kindliest feelings
in Hendarsonville.

Publicity Wanted.

1t has been suggested that the remain
ing assessments on the different enter
prises being pushed by this town, would
be more easily collected were public
statement made of the money already
paid in. 1t has also been suggested
that list of the original subscribers and
the amounts subscribed and paid In by
them would be of interest. AS there Is
absolutely nothing to be lost thro' this
publicity, many OF our citizens who
have paid all assessments called for at
different times, feel it might encourage
the delinquent ones to pay up, were
such list, and an account of the expen-
ditures, made public.
The different enterprises are: The
A. I. r. R., the Auditorium, the Hem
dersonville Lake, Land and Power
Company, and the ssxs anasenRses0at
Company.

Publicity.

The town is getting ready for the usu-
al flood of summer travel. The number
of new houses being erected is remark
able. Many additions and alterations
are being made in houses already built.
There is hardly house to be rented in
the city. 1t is not believed that the
jamestown Exposition will make any
difference in the number of visitors
coming here this summer, and already
the indications are that the towns ca
pacity will be tested even more severely
than last year.
HendersonYille is well known through
out the country, better known in fact
than the residents are aware. Newspa-
per advertising pays, and the Hustler is
conceited enough to believe that it has
done its full part in drawing attention
to this city's marvellous advantages.
Lack of space only prohibits the publi-
cation of the numerous articles copied
from this paper and published in the
newspapers of this state and the south.
The hundreds of letters received by A.
B. Calvert, Capt. Toms, TIC. Williams
and others, asking for information con-
corning different projects on foot, men,
toned in this paper, are but an indica-
tion Of the wide spread publicity given
through the columns of the Hustler.
Greater Hsndersonville is as sure as
sure as anything can be. There is no
boom, but the town is advancing steadi-
ly, and the future is very bright. The
lake, the cotton mills, the two new rail-
rosds, good roads, all or part OF these
will make Hendersonville the metro
polls of the State. and within not so
many years.
