The elections over, the Presi-
dent having returned to Wash
ington, the Cabinet and many
Senators and Members of Con-
gress having again resumed their
residence in the Capital City
popular attention and interest is
once more centered there. From
year to year the National Capital
has grown in population not by
leaps and bounds as have some
cities but by a steady growth.
In the last fifteen years this
growth has been remarkable anC
many suburban sections of the
city have been greatly extended
and the Capital as a residence
city is unsurpassed by any in the
world, except Hendersonville.

The President has completed
his 13OOO-mile swing around the

the White House. He was the
recipient of many courtesles on
his Journey through the South

around promiscuously for all ap-
precative Americans occupying
positions of honor and response
bility. North Carolina opened
wide her gates to the presidential
party, withholding nothing that
could, in any way, contribute to
the pleasure Of her distinguish
ed guests. This is the Tar Heel
way of receiving social callers

to President Taft and his associ-

BEST NAN WON

The result of the New York
election recently was to bring a
good. clean man safely through
a very dirty campaign with a
safe majority. Judge Gaynor's
conduct throughout the campaign
was that Of the gentleman and
iurist. While the opposition
sought to make him the scape-
goat of the ancient Tammany
methods and subjected him to
SANDER and vituperation he came
out the victor and with clean
hands, defeating William Ran
dolph Hearst, Independent, and
Barnard. republican, by a ire
mendous majority.
The remarkable strength Of
Judge Gaynor is shown in the
fact that the republican-fusion
candidates for all minor officers
were elected. Tammany Hall
loses control Of the city's purse
strings and an entirely new deal
in the political life Of Greater
New York will soon be perfected.
The mayor can be little more than
afgure-head, but this need not
detract from his popularity and
the prediction has already been
made that a year hence Judge
Gaynor will be the democratic
candidate for Governor Of New
York. 1t is said that he is strong.
er in the state than he was
thoughtto be in the city. If NOM
mated and elected Governor he
would be the logical democratic
candidate for President in 1912

succeed William Howard Taft as

Mr.. ]. N. GUDGER.

To the Democratic voters of the
Tenth Congressional District:
In reply to many inquiries
from all parts of the District
asking if I will be a candidate
for the Congressional nomi-
nation, I take this method OF
announcing my candidacy, sub
iect to the will of the Demo
cratic party. We face a serious
situation, a time when every
loyal, true Democrat should be
faithful to Duty, guarding well
the best interests of his party,
in the selection of a candidate.
The nominee should have the
full confidence of the people OF
the District, a clean record, and
a thorough knowledge Of the
District, with experience as an
organizer, in order to obtain
every available vote, which will
be necessary if we hope to win
the race; this fact is evident to
every thoughtful man and needs
no argument.
This is a crucial moment in the
life of the Democratic party, no
time for experiments; practical
reasoning, and action must be
exercised if we expect to defeat
the enemy. The conditionsI at
this time are such, that in the
selection of a man to lead the
party in the great battle of 1910,
many points of view must be
carefully considered, paramount
in Importance is availability,
strength to poll the largest vote,
and the capacity to do the most
effective work for the District as
their Representative. He who
measures up nearest to this
standard is entitled to the support
Of the voters. | am deeply
grateful for the support giver
, me in the past, and to all, | hes
to say, if nominated, l will give
my best efforts to restore Thu
District to the Party of tn
People.
The results Of the two Con
gressional races heretofore mad
: by me and my record, and worl
while in Congress, are wei
known to the Democracy of thi
District, and after due and care
full Investigation, if your judge
ment approves my nomination,
will greatly appreciate your in
fuence and support at this time
1 Yours truly,
J. M. GUDGER, JR.

There is a common law, we
believe, making the person con-
cealing stolen goods as criminal
ly liable as the thief himself.
There should be another law for
the person concealing sthe iden-
tity of any person making SIAN
derous statements, for he is just
as guilty as the slanderer him
self.

From Germany

Mrs. Freida Eggert, Of Oster-
burg, Germany, formerly OF
Hendersonville, writes that the
Hustler is eagerly looked for in
that far-of country, and that it
is received regularly every week.
Mrs. Eggert says it is read all
the way through; including the
advertisements. A recent copy
of the paper was shown to the
editor of the great Berlin Ga
zette." He commented in his
paper, on the very evident pros
perity, energy and progress
shown in "Hendersonville, a SUI
burban town of North Carolina"
to quote from his article, and re-
marks that America owes it's
greatness to the spirit shown by
the people of this town, for in
stance, and which he found re-
fected in the columns Of The
Hustler.
So, evidently, Hendersonville
and it's spirit is becoming known
even far beyond the confines of
this country. :

WEBER CATTLE OWNERS
STIRRED BY TAX INCREASE

once again the commissioners OF Weber
county have been called upon by the state
board OF equalization TO increase the taxes
This time it is upon cattle that the IN
crease is demanded, and the raise required
is 40 per cent The number OF cattle
found in Weber county by the assessor
was 1886, and the valuation was fixed at
Sl7S,9S9. 1t is now proposed by the state
board Of equalization to add 20 per cent
or practically $4,000 to this valuation.
It is explained by the state officials that
but 90 per cent OF the cattle were returned
upon the assessment rolls; that an inves-
LEGATION revealed the fact that many cat
tie escaped assessment altogether; that
one owner returned 200 mead of cattle,
when in reality he was the owner of 1000.
1t is now proposed to correct this condi-
ton by adding 30 per cent to the value OF
the cattle Of the entire state.
There viii be a vigorous protest against
this last increase on the part of Weber
county officials County Assessor Dix and
the county commissioners will go before
the state board of equalization on Monday
and try to demonstrate the unfairness OF
the increase on the valuation following on
the heels of d similar increase in the val
uation of the sheep.
The principal argument against the in
crease is that il is manifestly unfair 20
punish honest men for the sins of the dis
honest ones By making a flat increase
the men who made honest returns of the
cattle they own are compelled to pay not
only their own share of the taxes, but a
portion of the taxes that should be paid
bv the tax dodgers. The Weber county or
ficials will hold that it is the duty of the
authorities to locate the property that has
escaped taxation and make II pay its full
share,

Attorneys for the plaintiff are now pre-
pairing bill of exceptions for the pur-
pose OF having the entire case reviewed by
the supreme court OF the state. They will
take advantage of the appeal OF the de-
PENDANTS to the supreme court from the
second verdict, and viii take the whole
matter up on a cross error. They will ASH
the supreme court to ignore the second
verdict altogether and affirm the original
verdict of $1,000.

Los Angeles limited in front of the union
depot in Ogden. Oct. Is, 1906, and had both
legs cut off. In addition to this he lost
three fingers from his right hand and was
otherwise bruised and crippled. In the
first trial before Judge J. A. Howell he
was awarded a verdict of $4,000 damages.
Appeal was taken from the verdict by the
defendants and new trial was granted
by Judge ". W. Vaughan sitting for
Judge Howell. In this trial a verdict OF
$1,000 was rendered, cutting the amount
of the first verdict in two. The case bids
