That Awful
Contract !!
NOT YET SIGNED.
N
Oats wants FIVE Years
Contract. City Dads
want two. May
yet Sign.

AS we go to press the contract
between r. NJ. Oates and the city
is still open.
The one under consideration
seems to safeguard the town in
every respect.
The poles are to be removed.
The contract is for 2 years with
privilege of 5 more at rates
which are paid by other towns
of about same size, etc.
IfMr. Oates does not deliver
the goods the contract becomes
void.
MIR. Oates has over $4,000 it
is said, invested in his plant. and
it is believed the intention is to
be talr with a man who comes to
Hendersonyille and invests his
money here.
And the city has the means of
enforcing good service.
1t seems to be fair contract.
The City has :the power, un-
der the proposed contract, to
force MIR. Oates to liye up to
his contract. 1t did not have
this power before, we believe.
MIR. Oates has a heavy in-
vestment here, is spending more

Aroused Enthusiasm.

The Citizen of Friday made the bond
election the big news item Of the day.
Under big headlines, it said, in part.
1.-THE news of Henderson county's
work aroused the greatest enthusiasm
In Asherille last night, and the predic-
ton was freely made that BuncOmbe,
Haywood and Polk counties would fol-
low Henderson's remarkable lead. The
secret Of the gratifying result yesterday
Is said . be due to tremendous energy
displayed by the workers in getting out
the vote, and it Is said that if the same
steps are followed in this county there
can be 10 doubt IS to the result.
The Hustler Hustled.
The French Broad Hustler appeared
on the Streets of Hendersonyille yester-
day before the polls closed with the fol-
lowing report."

tien from the Hustler, which was on the
