| THE BLUES.
Got the blues, did, you say?
Sure enough! A genuine attack,
and the sun shining bright in the
heavens, and not a cloud to be
seen. Well! Well! Come my
friend, shake yourself together.
Go out into the sunshine and look
about you. ds this time for the
blues? See how gleefully all ma
ture is smiling. Don't be behind
hand in being happy when every
thing else is rejoicing. This
world is not a vale of tears. This
life was not given to us as a time
for weeping and wailing. Come,
get yourself out Of this Slough of
i Despond. This is time for ac-
ton. Never sit by the roadside
and lament over by-gones, or des-t
pair because impossibilities are
not brought to pass. There are.
just as grand opportunities per-,
haps before you as have ever been
experienced. There may not be
just as much prosperity and hap
piness for your future, if you so
will, as there has been in the past.
And what a face! You'll spread
horror by such a long-drawn
countenance. Indeed it is enough
to give a buffoon the blues, even
to look at it. Go to the glass and
get a glimpse of yourself, and
then compare it with the looks Of
friends with whom you meet, but
don't stand looking at yourself
long, walk forth in Gods pure
atmosphere. Give a hearty good
day to every man and woman
you meet; a smile and a nod at
every child; chirrup or whistle to
, every dog, and there will be but
little more trouble with the blues,
; The ailment cannot stand such
treatment. It hourishes only on
moodiness and dissatisfaction.
Sunlight dispels the clouds of a
murky sky, and so does a sunny
disposition scatter the blues.
Do not sit and ponder over
trouble; you cannot dispel it by
making yourself miserable.
, Never look into the future with
despair; you cannot cross,a bridge
until you come to it. Don't har-
row your mind over things that

A Word On Roads

The time approaches when
"mending the roads" will be
the order Of the day. 1t is an
unconscious sarcasm that calls
it mending, when the old plan is
followed Of plowing and scraping
the dirt into the middle Of the
road to be trodden into dust or
mud. It is the most expensive
method we know of chow not to
do it" More time land money
have been wasted in unsystem-
attic ways of trying to make
good roads than would have suf-
ficed, if they had been scientifi-
cally used, to have made hard,
smooth roads over which at all
seasons heavy loads could be
easily driven.
But the loss occasioned by
waste of time and money by
wrong methods Of work is small
compared with that of which the
farmer sustains in the hauling of
his produce to market. Bad roads
mean small loads, and that again
means more loads to market a
given amount Of produce than
would be necessary if the roads
We're good. Anyone who can put
two and two together knows that
time thus unnecessarily spent is
time wasted, and time is money
just as much to the farmer as it
is to any other man. He also
knows that it means additional
cost for wear and tear of animals,
vehicles and harness.
Isn't it strange that so many
who rightly insist on having the
very best machinery, implements
and stock, and who keep their
land up. should be content to tra-
vekevery day over roads that are
good only under the most favor
able conditions? The one excuse
advanced is the expense. There
is some force in this, especially
in some communities and where
good road material is scarce. but
even then the difficulty is over
estimated. We shall at another
time show how good serviceable
roads may be built and maintain,
ed at an expense which, of course;
varies with localities, but which
in any case is small compared
with the benefit received.

Echoes Of the Election.
Well Done, Henderson.

The Citizen predicted last Monday
that the people of Henderson county
would be progressive enough to vote
for the railroad bond issue, but no one
dreamed that such . tremendous ma
iority as 200 votes would be piled up.
Good old Henderson, Tt is the first of
the counties which will be reached by
the new railroad to vote on the question
of bond issue, and how well she has
i'blaZed trail for the other counties to
followy,
The news from Henderson county
should instill new life and energy into
the unsel6sh and tireless men who are
working INCREASINGLY for the bond issue
in Buncombe, and it should put every
voter in the county on his metal. Are
the voters of Buncombe going to let the
men of Henderson put them to shame?
We think not. The Citizen believes that
the voters of Asheville and the county
will turn out IN friendly rivalry on Oct
ober 20 and show Henderson county
that We are q little heavy in the voting
line ourselves Meanwhile. we take off
our hat to Henderson, make most pro
found bow and say, swell donelH In

bouquet to The Henderson, lille Hustler,

SafeI

The Hustler safe is now open, thanks
to Col. Pickens, to advertising and to
Cam Osborne.
Osborne, who made so many friends
while in Hendersonville. is now In
Spartanburg, where he still reads the
Hustler. In a letter just received, ne
says.
Dear Mr.. Barrows; I notice by the
Hustler that you had lost the combl-
nation to the safe, and remembering
hat once had it, began search for IT,
aud found it among some old papers.
We certainly appreciate having The
Hustler Sc MT us, and especially while
there is so much talk OF the new rail-
road. Glad to see that Henderson has
Voted the Bonds.

NORTH CAROLINA STILL LEADS.
The New York American A Little
Late.

The following Is from the New
York American, under the heading
early Southern Newspapers"
To the Editor OF The American:
Sir-Can you advise me through your
"Why aud Wherefore" column whether
any newspapers were published in the
South as far back as 1911, and il so,
where would it be possible TO procure
copies of same? L, 81. II.
TAmong the newspapers that were in
existence in the South at the time you
mention were the following: The Ca
zette, Alexandria, Va; the American.
Baltimore, Md; the Republican, Balti-
more, Md /; the Gazette, Annapolis, Md. |;
the Chronicle, Augusta, Ga ; the News
and Courier, Charleston, 8. q. A COM
munication with these papers might
bring you the desired information
The North Carolina Gazette, a
weekly newspaper, was published
in Newburn, N. c., by James Davis
in 1749, 81 years before the date
named in the enquiry of L. III. 81:
The same man printed the first
book in North Carolina, in 1852,
called the "Yellow Jacket" The
"Cape Fear Gazette and Whining
ton Advertiser" was published at
Wilmington, N. c., by Andrew
Stewart in 1853.
The "Cape Fear Mercury" was
published in this state in 1857.
In 1776 there were five news
papers published in North Caro-
lima.
1t is not probable that copies of
these papers or any of them can
now be had, since these facts were
obtained from official records in
London, England, since the close
of the Revolution.

About the Electric Road

The construction of an electric
road between here and Asheyille
would be one of the very best
things which could possibly hap
pen for this city.
It should receive the hearty sup
port of everyone. The men back
of the enterprise are worthy OF
every confidence, aud it Is strictly
a business enterprise.
Electric roads have played a
prominent part in the develop
ment of the rural districts in the
north, and the advantages result
ing form this road would be hard
to estimate.

What's Asheville going to do? Only
four votes against the road in Hender-

The Presbyterian Church

The Presbyterian Synod now in ses
sion here has served to call general at.
teHtion to the Presbyterian church, com
pleted, not so long ago, at cost of over
$4,000. This edifice is undoubtedly one
of the handsomest church buildings in
the state, and excites universal admir-
alton.
The Presbyterian congregation was
organized in 1850, and the first church
was erected about. seven years later,
Under DR., RIB. Grinnan it has wonder
fully widened it's field of work, the con-
gregation has steadily increased in
numbers. and today worships in a
church which would do credit to city
of 80, 900 people,
The French Broad hustler. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1896-1912, 1907-10-24

The electric road between here and
AsheVille is every day assuming more
definite shape. G. F. White, treasurer,
and J. D. Murphy, president Of the CON-
pany are now interesting Asheville men
in that end of the enterprise. 1t seems
that Hendersonville has done its share.
According to report the line would
stop on Main street opposite the Court
House.
This surely must bea mistake, as this
would hardly be a suitable stopping
place.
The line will be % miles long, with
an hourly freight and passenger service
between HendersonYille and Ashevile.
1t will run 'tfrom the court house" in
HendersonviIle to Fletcher, to Arden,
through Skyland, to Buena Vista. to
South Biltmore, to the Square in Ashe-
vile.
1t is said HendersonYiIle men have ad-
vanced three fourths of the money
needed and would be willing to advance
the balance only it is desired to interest
both ends in the enterprise.
The company proposes to give per
cent bonds which will be taken, up by
the permanent bonds after the road is
finished While the road is being built
the temporary bonds will be drawing 5
per cent interest.

The city fathers and r. M. Oats are
having strenuous.time in trying to get
together on the renewal Of the lighting
contract.
Numerous propositions and counter
propositions have been submitted, and
the city dads been so busy attending
special meetings that they are strangers
in their own homes, and their families
hardly recognize them when they see
them.
A contract is a nightly uncertain an
imal, anyway, and just what the out
come will be is hard to say.
The last proposition submitted, and
which MAY be accepted provides for
contract to last two years with extern
sion Of three more under certain condi-
tions,
Mr.. Oats wants . straight fVe-year
contract, claiming the expense OF NOV
ing poles from center to side OF street.
and other contemplated improvements.
is so great, that . two-year contract
would not justify the expense.
1t provides for not less than thirty
lights to be used by the city, at cost
of lS4 cents per lamp per night. =
No bill to be rendered for lights that
fail to burn within two hours after dark
and continuously thereafter. Company
to be penalized 10 cents per night per
lamp, also. Subject to clause 8, which
says: Except such failure be due to the
acts of God, some inevitable casualty or
fires"
Clause says: t'Failure to give the
citizens of the city good and irst-class
service for domestic and commercial
uses shall give the city the right 70 can
eel the contract for lighting its public
streets.
The city authorities have every dispo-
sition to be fair with Mr. Oates and It Is
believed a contract SAtifactOry to both
sides may still be drawn.
