NOTHING ELSE

RAILROAD THE ONE TOPIC
Greatest Enthusiasm Over the

RAILROAD THE ONE TOPIC

The railroad is certainly the
one absorbing topic of discussion
in Henderson county, just now.
Nothing else is talked about, and
the gradually awakening enthu.
siasm for the great project is
really remarkable.
While there was never any
doubt as to how the progressive
and intelligent voters of the
county would finally settle the
matter, there has been some
question as to the majority it
would have in its favor.
Now it promises 70 be an over
whelming majority, and tits hard
to find q man opposed to this
Great public enterprise.
Who could oppose it, and
whyf -,s-s.
What do you really think about that
new railroad, anyway?
Don't you think it would be the very
finest thing which could possibly happen
to the county?
What objections can you bring
against it?
IL 1t not straight business PROPOSE
tion?
What is thSrs about it you do not
understand? Or that is not perfectly
plain?
There's an Information bureau in the
court house in charge of Messrs. Davis
RAd Garland. They will answer plainly
any questions you may wish to ask.
Don't you think it will do more to de-
velop the. county than anything else
which could possibly happen?
Do you get better prices and treat
ment when there's one store In your
community or when there's two or
more?
Won't you get better prices aud treat
ment when there's another THROUGH
railroad to haul your produce and bring
In your merchandise?
Do you want to see unlimited horse
power developed, which means factories
and industries of ell kinds?
You will never see that condition
while there is only one railroad in Hem
derson County
Do yon believe the taxes viii be In
creased?
On the contrary, they will be decreas--

Do you want . market for your labor?

MPar,ifalp at Ashsyille.

A play as broad in its interests as
humanity itself. Elaborate and spec
tacular In production, weird In its por-
trayal of the elemental passions, absorb
ing as dream OF the highest good, yet
keen and intense in its appeal TO the in
diYidual; such is the description of the
Wagner wonder drama which Asheville
is to see in its new English dress at the
Grand Opera House Oct. 5th.
It is generally conceded to bO q con-
dition of dramatic art that human in
terests must be paramount, and this con-
dition has been complied with the trans
latiOn of "Parsifal." Abstract ideas
and poetic fancies are made real in the
characters and experiences of living
persons. The faith that good shall be
the final goal OF i'll, forms the legend
wrought out to certitudo in the action
of the play. The futility OF low cum
ming, craft, duplicity and all the unlovely
brood of the neither world, when oppos-
ed by the nobler Intelligence which
comprehends but disregards them all, is
demonstrated in this thrilling drama,
which centers around the personality of
the son of many generations of soldier
sires, whom his mother would have
made q shepherd Of but whom destiny
made king. There is sound philosophy
and true art Ia the final description of
the personality of Parsifal.
A guilOlesa fool-ln the eyes of the
foolish-not by wrath, nor by cynicism,
nor by cheapsworldly wisdom, but by
pity enlightened.
AS a spectacle "Parsifal" is tremen-
dous enterprise; the scenery is on Law
ish scale andtthe illuminations and cleo
trio effects form a striking feature of
the production. An augmented orches-
ira of twenty musicians will render the
soul-stirring strains of Parsifal aS an
accompaniment to the wondrouS text.
The houriof commencement will dltter
from that OF the former custom, the
long dinner intermission having beer
eliminated now permits Of giving the
play at oneSsitting. The curtain for the
| evening performance will rise promptly
/ at 7:45. Auditors should be in theil
seats when the performance begins, D
none will be seated during the action o
the play.
i Seats ordered by mail will be forward
ed on receipt Of remittance and sci
addressad stamped envelope directed

Is the Present Road Law Entirely
SatiSfactory2

Editor Hustler-Is the present road
law u good one? 1 am of the opinion
that very much depends on the manner
in which the road trustees and county
supervisor attend to the duties enjoin-
cd upon them by the law. We of Hoop
ers Creek have tried to carry out the
law to the letter, and find our roads so
much improved thatthey don't look
natural
We find it pays to have good roads
and by reports of our district supervi-
sors we also find that since May 1, 1907,
we have given over 700 days work on
55 miles of public roads.
Will the brethren around the bor-
der please move up the good work?
