The French Broad hustler. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1896-1912, 1909-05-20

The eighth annual commence
ment exercises Of the Hender-
sonville High School were held
in the big Auditorium on Mon
day night. Over 1900 people
were present and the utility and
necessity of this big structure
was demonstrated forcibly.
The immense stage was very
prettily decorated and for the
first time in the towns history
every one who wished was en-
abled to be present at the schools
commencement.
The essays were of exceptional
merit and the judges had a most
difficult task to perform. The
three medals offered by Messrs.
M. L. Shipman, Michael Schenck
and W. A. Smith were finally
awarded to Kate Shipman, Della
Garren and Hubert Smith.
The musical features of the
program were keenly enjoyed by
the great audience and spoke of
the wealth of musical talent in
Hendersonville. The numbers
were enthusiastically and per-
sistently encored.
Alex Wilson, one of the
brightest students of the school,
was unable to deliver his essay,
by the advise of his physician.
A pleasant feature of the
evenings entertainment, to those
participating at least, was the
delicious ice cream and cake
furnished by Prof. Ivens, and
which was served to the grad
yates, the chorus, the officers,
judges and the teachers.
The following won prizes for
excellence in Algebra:
Miss Eva Jordan, 10th grade
Crescent Pin.
Herbert Justice, 9th grade
Fountain Pen.
Miss Elizabeth Garland, 9th
grade-Fountain Pen.
Wilson Allen, 9Th grade
Fountain Pen.
Louis Allen, 9Th grade
Fountain Pen.
Following is the program in
full, with the list of the grad
yates and the class officers;

ELECT U. S. SENATORS BY POP
ULAR VOTE.

Twenty-seven States have through
their Legislatures declared in favor of
an amendment to the constitution pro-
viding for the election of United States
Senators by direct vote Of the people.
Only FIVE States are necessary now to
propose an amendment which ought to
be easily obtained under the prevailing
sentiment in regard to the Senate, the
majority of which acts in utter disre-
gard of the people in favor of classes.
IL the present Senate is weeded out,
and all the Senators who had procured
their seats by fraud excluded, there
would hardly be corporals guard left.
There is every reason that the Senators
should be elected by the people and
none that we know of why they should
not. The constitution provides that
two-thirds of the States acting togeth-
err can propose amendments. which,
when submitted. requires the ratifica-
ton of three fourths of the States ask
ing through their Legislatures or con-
ventions. The Senators. as rule, are
violently opposed to the innovation. but
the House, we believe. has on more
than one occasion expressed itself in
favor Of it. The will Of the people is
often thwarted by the Legislatures in
the selection of United Senators and in
Kentucky. especially. we have to our
shame and sorrow on more than one &C.
casion seen the most fragrant disregard
of party obligation and popular
demand. The election Of Senators
by the vote of the people is coming.

SECRETARY WILSON. Of the Agricul-
tural Department, who has broken the
record for length of time in cabinet
position, says it is not true that he will
resign. The statement is superfluous.
Nobody ever heard of a republican re-
signing and very few die. Fatality
seems to be confined to Democrats in or
der to give that great non-partisan,
Gov. Wilson, a chance to show his par
tisanship in appointments.

CONVICT BONDS TABoOED..
Dallas Commissioners Passed a Far
Reaching Order Thursday.

Dallas. Texas. Sept. 1l.-NO more
convict bonds are TO be accepted by
Dallas county. This is the effect of
an order passed and entered into
Thursday by the county commission
ers' court. IT means that persons
convicted in the county court at law
of misdemeanors, punishable by fines
or ajiI sentences, must work out
their time on the road, when jail
sentences are given.
Difficulty in the collection of so
called Convict bonds" is response
bic for the order, as is also the dis
covery that the county had great
deal of road-making implements ly-
ing idle, because there were not
convicts enough TO keep them busy,
Some time ago when the jail was
fun of prisoners. the suggestion was
made and carried out, that more of
the prisoners be put TO work on the
roads 1t was found that the convict
camps were fun, and later addition
al machinery was purchased. 1t
worked all right as long as the
courts were grinding, but with the
vacation period the number of pris-
oners commenced getting low.
About this time County Judge Young
had occasion to make an inyestiga-
ton about a convict bond. and dis
covered a number of them on which
the chances Of collection We're nil.
The connection with the discovery
about the bonds, caused the order 10
be issued.

ENUMERAT0RS OF THE CENSUS
An Estimate Of the Number Tor Each
State Next Year.

Washington, Sept. 11.-About
sixty-five thousand enumerators will
be needed for the thirteenth decen-
NAL census of the United States, and
also of Hawaii and Porto Rico, ac-
cording to estimates prepared for
Census Director Durand by Geogra-
pher Chas. s. Sloane of the census
bureau in whose division the enum-
orators districts are defined and
fixed This is an increase of about
1900 over the number Of schedule
carriers in the census of 1900.
Director Durand points out that
the per diem enumerators in 1900,
according to the provisions of sec
ton 16 of the act approved March 3,
1899, were required to work ten
hours a day, but in the act provid-
ing for the thirteenth and subse-
quent decennial censuses, the time
is fixed at hours a day. This re-
duction in the daily hours will re-
quire an additional number of emu
merators in the portions of the coun-
try in which the per diem rates viii
prevail.
The present census law requires
that the enumeration of the popula-
ton shall be taken as of the fifteenth
day of April, 1910, and the enum-
orators must forward their returns
wifi
from the commencement of the emu
meration, except that in any city
having five thousand inhabitants or
more at the preceding census, the
enumeration shall be completed with
in two weeks.
In looking into the details of the
estimates, Oklahoma and Washing
ton are conspicuous, as they Will
call for about 800 per cent increase
over the 1900 force of enumerators
PENNSYLVANIA will continue in the
leadership having slightly the lar,
gest number of enumerators; the
1910 force being estimated at 5000
against 4720 in 1900. New York is
second with a probable 5000 fol
1910, as compared with 4541 in
1900. Next will come Illinois, Their
Ohio, Texas, Missouri, Massachu
sets, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota
and California, all needing 1000 OF
more enumerators each.
Noteworthy increases in popula
ton will, in 1910, occasion about {
SO per cent increase over the 1906
force in California, Florida, Georgia
Massachusetts, Montana, Nevada
New Jersey, New Mexico, North Da
kota, Texas, West Virginia, ant
Wyoming.
There will very likely be no mater
ial increase in the number of enum
orators for Vermont and only
small additional force for Arkansas
Iowa, Maine, Oregon. Rhode Island
South Dakota and Tennessee.

COOK REDEEMS HIS POSITION
This Is the General View of the Lon
don Press.

London, Sept. 1.-THE immedi-
ate effect of the publication of
Peary's brief account of his journey
here is a certain revulsion of feeling
in favor of Dr.. Cook and the adop
ton of a more judicial and impartial
attitude toward both explorers. The
Daily Telegraph says:
Or. Cook has decided to face the
music and in doing so has greatly
redeemed his position in English
eyes and in a large measure has made
comment at the present stage both
unfair and unwise."
One of the chief reasons for the
revulsion in DR.. Cooks favor is the
unexpected swiftness of Peary's
sledge Journey to and from the
Pole
The general opinion is that little
of d convincing character will be
obtained by an examination of the
Eskimos and the evidence of real
value will be secured only by an ex-
pert comparison of the two men
records of scientific observations.
The Post, in a special article sug-
gests that owing to the known diff
Guilty of securing accurate observa-
lions for latitude in the farthest
north, especially in the early springs
when the sun altitude over the ho-
rizon measures only a few degrees
phenomenally rapid rate at which
they travelled, both Cook and Peary
may have miscaluated their positions
and adds
at must be assumed that Peary
guarded against such an error
