Relief For the People.

The New York Tribune complains
that Mr.. Bryan is not real tariff re-
former The American Economist
claims that he is a genuine free trader
Both are stand pat papers, and there
you are. But to a man in the street it
looks much as if Bryan's Des Moines
speech and his pledge to call an extra
session of congress March next to
carry out his party's tariff reduction
plank meant real relief to the people
from paying tribute to tariff trusts

Suppress the Stand Patters.

The shipping trust, alias the Nation
al Commercial and Industrial league,
has opened New York headquarters
with the avowed purpose of forcing
ship subsidies, a la Mark Hanna, into
the Republican bill of fare. They have
the perseverance and the money, and
II would be an unsafe bet that they
won't succeed If the voters don't keep
the stand patters at home.

Confederate
Reunion for
This Civ!

Hendersonville has winning
way Of getting most everything
she goes after.
Now, can she land the next
State Convention of the Confea-
crate veterans?
Col. S. V. Pickens is one of a
committee of five commanding
generals and four others who
will decide on the next gathering
place of the gallant boys in gray
The Colonel says the sentiment
of the committee is favorable to
this town. The other places
mentioned are Wilmington,
Charlotte and Greensboro.
Hendersonville can have it If
she goes after it right.
It would mean the bringing of
more than 5000 additional people
to this little old town.
The convention lasts two days
and certain conditions in the way
of free entertainment for a part
ofsthe veterans must be complied
with.
It would be a great honor to
entertain these veterans. Tt
would also be a good thing for
the town.
Does the town want it?

Factory May
Locate Here

A factory for HendersonviIle |!
A tooth-pick factory, con-
suming at least two carloads of
lumber per week! !!
Sounds good, doesn't it?
Capt. J. w. Wofford is quite
confident that he will be success
full in his efforts to locate such
an enterprise here.
F., What the Captain undertakes
to do he generally does.
The capitalists proposing to
erect this factory here want a
guarantee of two car loads of
birch, r maple and ash, besides
some other timber, each week.
The chance of furnishing this
timber would look good to the
citizens Of this county.
The chance of steady employ
ment would look good to many
more.
The prospects of steady pay
roll would look good to our mer-
chants.
Hendersonville needs that fac
tory, and if within the bounds of
possibilities Capt. John is going
to get it!

Heavy Toll from Henderson County.
One Life Lost, Crops Damaged and
Bridges Damaged.
Fatal Wreck.

Lee London was instantly kill
ed, w. H. Phillips is seriously
injured, a train load of freight
cars lies in heap of debris, and
transportation is stopped for
hours as a result of a wreck of
train No.. 36 between here and
Saluda last night.
The freight train was west
bound at about 8 o'clock last
night when the accident accured.
The wreck was caused by the ex-
cessive rains which had washed
out the embankment, it being
one of the highest on the road
through the mountains. The en-
gine tunbled down the steep en-
bankment and five freight cars
went leaping over the precipice
behind it, while some were left
standing on the track.
The Asheville wrecking crew
was hurried to the scene and it
took several hours to recover
London's crushed body, which
was under the frame of the ten
der which was 250 feet in the
valley below, His body was not
badly mutilated. It was taken to
his home in Asheville.
Fireman w. H. Phillips fortu-
uately made a jump and saved
his life, though was badly scald-
ed and bruised. He is a resident
of this city and has lately been
visiting J. S. Holbert who lives
a mile from town.
Passenger train No. 13 from
the South last night was late. and
if it had been on time it is prob
able that it would have been
instead of the freight,
and a great loss of life would
have probably been the result.
Traffic is DELAYED for hours but |
it is thought that transportation
will be possible tonight. The land
slide on the road beyond Tryon
has been cleared off and today |
passengers and mail will be trans
ferred over the wreckage of last
night.
Passenger train No. 13 was
held over at Saluda last night
and the passengers were given
accommodations. They were not
transferred over the scene until a
late hour today. All trains are
late.
Following is a statement from
the Citizen, and in connection
with this it may be said that
London was a dear friend to
many of the Hendersooville peop-
e, and that Phillips had just re-
covered from great injuries he
had recently received on a wreck
vest of here.
London was SO years old and
caves a wife and three children,
le has long been a resident of
his city and at present his fam.
y is living in West Asheville. He

position, and he had a wide cir
lie oflfriends. Mr.. London was

ThCHOrSGShOW
Closes in q
Blaze Of
Glory!

The second and last day of
the first annual Hendersonville
horse show was fully equal in
success to the expectations of
the most sanguine horse show
enthusiasts.
Competent judges Of this class
of work stamped their approval
on its great success and said it
was as fine a horse show as they
had ever witnessed.
Things passed off smoothly
and their were not the usual
class of intoxicated people who
attend horse shows, and there
were no accidents to mar the
cheerfulness of the people.
The weather turned out fine
but the show opened in a light
sprinkle of rain.
There was a record breaking
attendance. The grand stands
were full of people, the open
seats were packed and the park
ing space that was not occupied
hv vehicles was thicklv lined
with spectators.
The Hendersonville band
furnished music, and there was
an uproar, all inthe best of spir-
it's throughout the show.
The show began at 3 o'clock
and lasted until dark. Before it
had closed nearly all the specta-
tors had left the grounds.
There were six judges in the
ring; they changed around and
judged different classes, except
Robert Flemming who judged in
in all classes. The judges were:
Jim Charles, Greenville; Robert
Flemming, Augusta; R. M.
Hunt, Wiley B. Brown, Ashe-
vile; Senator McLauren, Ben
nettsville; and K. G. Whistler,
Camden, S. G.
In class No. z, which was
featured by good jumping, T.
F. Coke, of Asheville, was rid
ing his horse. The horse failed
to clear the hurdle, which threw
him; Coke fell from the horse
and as the horse jumped up Coke
was under him and fortunately
though mysteriously, escaped
injury.
The awards of yesterday not
given in yesterdays Hustler

formation, the correctness of
which is not guaranteed.
