the very ideas necessary to the
intelligent handling of this right.
If women want to vote, they will;
if not now, whenever they get
ready to, but before they do vote,
and we believe before they want
to vote, they will have the good
sense to thoroughly understand
what they are asking for, and
what they are going to do with
it when they get it.
The illustration of the preacher
entering political discussions and
contests for the elevation of the
ballot apply in the woman suf-
frage case. The preacher is sim
ply following out the general pur-
pose Of his calling; and the pro-
hibition case does not apply. The
woman's position on this question
being purely one of sentiment on
a proposition so apparent as to
need no argument, and one in
which they are much more vitality
affected than they are v rlikely
to be in politics, except possibly
the return of the ballot to the
ignorant and worthless, if not &C
vicious, class of negroes
who once constituted a part of
the republican party of this state.
Woman's place is in the home,
and speaking collectively, we be-
she would rather be queen
there. than play second fiddle in
any other proposition on earth.

deal for corporations as we'll as
individuals, and it is outrageous
to require banking institutions to
pay three times as much taxes in
proportion as do individuals. All
property should be taxed equally.
One of the worst defects in our
tax system is that we have no
fixed rules. The equalization of
the assessments on property
needs improving and to be made
definite so that all will be taxed
on the same basis and equally"
-Edgefeld, S. G. News.
Right, brother, and wrong.
One of the worst defects in our tax
system is that we have no fixed
rules. But the way for correction
lies in the raising of the lower
values to the right place, and moi
the lowering of the right values
to a wrong place.

like its true value in money. and
the time will come, and that soon,
when the banks will not submit
to such discrimination against
them. We believe in a square

AS this is the last issue of this
paper before the town election,
we feel it our duty, as well also
as our pleasure and pride, to say
in behalf of the present members
of the town council who stand for
reelection that they should be
given another term. We are Of
this opinion because we think
energetic and conscientious eff
forts for our towns up-build and
up-lift should be recognized.
Never has Hendersonville's
growth been so pronounced as in
the two years just past. While,
of course, this cannot be attrib-
uted to the present admins
tration, it is nevertheless a very
patent fact that the board of
commissioners, as now consti-
tuted, has ever had its shoulder
to the wheel'' helping and en-
couraging the towns growth,
and has by it's watchfulness kept
the municipal improvements in
line with the almost countless
private improvements. The mag
nificent sidewalks or the macad-
J amiZed streets; the overhauling
of and the additions to the water
and sewer supplies, the improve
ments in the light system are but
some of the most conspicuous
marks of it's progressive spirit.
In it's constant warfare upon
the blind tiger in all it's hid
eous, devilish and soul-destroying
forms, the efficiency and determi-
nation of the present administra-
ton has been equally apparent as
in its progressiveness. In other
words, in their effort to keep
Hendersonville in the forefront
as a growing business town they
have not neglected to keep it a
clean, temperate and moral town.

} the pains to look closely into the

SHALL WOMEN VOTE 2"

Referring to an editorial in the
Hustler of April 9Th, a communi-
cation from a citizen, in last
weeks issue, takes US to task
and intimates that there is a
niger in the wood pile" con-
corning our position on this ques-
ton. Beginning, he says: "Judg-
ing from editorials appearing now
and then, a majority of newspa-
per editors are against extending
suffrage to women" and right
here he has put his finger on the
main tack supporting the struc-
ture of the position, and doesn't
know it.
Essentially and consistently
democratic, we believe in major
itY rule. If a majority of news
papers oppose woman suffrage,
the fact (if we take the CORES
pondent's assertion as a fact)
that the majority of newspapers
are opposed to woman suffrage,
we are clearly consistent in be-
aieving that a majority of the bal
ance of the citizens are against
for we know of no reason why an
editor should be opposed to it
more than any other voter.
However, one, and we believe
for the purpose, only one, of the
many reasons why we do not IA
vor woman suffrage will be sufi-
eient to satisfy our suffragist. It
is this:
Woman has been trained and
educated from time immemorial
to a sphere in life in which the
ballot has had no place, and has
been taught and drilled that pol
itics is not to have anything un-
der the sun to do with the things
in which she may expect to be
interested. This creates a class
that we think we have a right to
assume is absolutely unprepared
for the proper exercise Of the
privilege of suffrage. Not be-
cause of any deficiency in wo-
mans capacity, which our cor
respondent contends is equal to
mans, but for the reason that
every thought of the woman's
life has been toward a condition
of affairs so thoroughly antago-
nistic to politics, that the ballot
would be more than likely to be
used as a means for or against a
measure simply on the ground of
prejudice, or as an expression of
an opinion formed or reflected
from that of some male member
of her immediate family or circle
or circle of acquaintance. On
the other hand, a man is brought
up under conditions so different,
we think, as to need no illustra-
ton in comparison, and especially
conducive to the development of

financial condition Of the town
two years ago and now, and those
who have wilfully remained ig-
norant, it has been said that the
present administration has been
extravagant. Figures alone can
answer this. The floating in
debtedness of the town now is
a third less than it was two years
ago. An examination of the
records show this. The tax rate,
both property and poll, has been
reduced; slightly it is true, but
nevertheless reduced, and not in
creased as some ignorant or ma
licious ones would have the citi-
zens believe.
1t has been alleged that the adj
ministration has had many law
SUITS" There were three. Two
of which have been tried, and
both won by the town. The third
is still pending; and unless a jury
of Henderson county says that an
ordinary hack-horse is worth to
it's owner the sum of $500 per
day over and above it's food and
care, the plaintiff in this case will
fail in his demands as have the
other two.
The question of the mayors
salary has been widely discussed
by those unfriendly to the admin
istration. Whether this discus
sion has been done by those who
would have this salary go to an
other than the present incum-
bent or not, the truth is that the
present salary of the mayor
amounts to less than six dollars
more per year than the remu-
neration of his predecessor in Of
fee. Formerly the mayor re-
ceived a smaller salary and fees.
Now he receives a salary and no
fees. The former mayors remu-
neration averaged forty-nine dol
lars and some cents per month,
while the present Incumbent re-
ceives $4,000 per month. The
change was made from a fee to a
salary basis because it was not
best-in fact the princi-
pie was thought to be wrong
that any judicial officers remu-
neration should be contingent
upon the men he convicted. It'll
true that there may be those who
would serve for less. This is
true of any Office, public or pri-
vate; but surely no one would
argue that Hendersonville wants
to entrust her welfare to the low
est bidder. We do not think Mr..
Station would desire to advertise
himself as a cheap man, even if
some of his supporters do say
that he would take it for less"
We have taken the trouble to
investigate the records and fig
ures of the town and informed
that others, all others, are not
only welcome to do the same, but
are urged so to do.
Therefore we say to the demo-
cratic and Independent voters of
the town, rally to the men you
have put forward, who have
shown themselves wnrthy of your
trust in the past and show your
appreciation of their services by
retaining them. You did this
two years ago-you can and
should-and doubtless will-doi it
again on Tuesday next. And to
the republicans we feel that we
can say to them in all sincerely,
that the present administration
has been the administration of all
the people of the town, that at
it's hands all citizens have Jared
alike, and that they too. could,
and should, stand by the men

Mr.. Justice himself has not been
heard from as to second term. His
efficient service during the past sea-

is little doubt but that he will be re-
turned to the office with no opposition.

MANY IMPROVEMENTS
AT THE DRY DOCKS
a Pneumatic Hosting Engine and a
Saw GUNNER Recently Receiv-
ed at Plant.

Things have been booming at the
government dry docks lately, quite a
bit of new machinery having been re-
ceived. One piece a pneumatic hoist
ing engine is expected to prove quite
benefit as there is compressed air
apparatus already installed which has
not been used much. The band saw
GUNNER Is also expected to facili-
tate matters there and it has already
been set in place.
Major Meigs has been largely in
strumental in securing these additions
and did it only after realizing that
the cost of production of articles made
there could be lowered if only the
proper apparatus was at hand and 1t
was with this intention of lowering the
cost of production that they have been
secured.
Another addition has been the build
ing of a trestle out over the dump on
the canal side just above the second
lock. This was built for the purpose
of piking lumber on. At lie present
time there are about % men employ
ed at boat building and all will have
plenty to do throughout the winter
