Thanks to the Retail Merchants
Association, Raleigh is one of the
best lighted towns in the State
If the Hendersonville Merchants
Association, which is doing to
much to advance the best interests
OF THE resort of the South, could
follow Raleigh's example in this
respect, it might find it profita-
BILE.
) Fayetteville street, the best re-
tail district of the city, on Satur-
day night was a blaze OF hight
from the Capitol building to the
new auditorium, now being built.
Besides the regular city arcs there
is a string of incandescent lights
on either side of the street, the
globes being placed close together
for the entire distance. Midway be-
tween the capitol and the postof-
flee is an enormous electric sign
across the street with the flaring
legend in letters several feet high,
"Welcome to Raleigh. In addi-
ton to this every store is brilliant
ly illuminated, there's row of
arc lights on top of the Masonic
Temple and private electric signs
In abundance.
Standing on the capitol steps
and looking down the blazing path
way of light, the long string of
incandescent bulbs resolves itself
into a sinuous, shimmering snake
Of fire, revealing every detail of
dress, every change of expression,
of the hurrying, laughing, worried
merry, mass Of people covering
the wide walks below.

pie whose names are famous the

markabe creations on their pref
ty heads.
There are two frst-class restau-
rants here much affected by the
fashionable ones and by many who
wish to be considered fashionable.
There is one good theatre, the
Academy of Music, and when the
Merry Widow" played there
last Friday hundreds were tur-
ned away unable to get seats at
any price.
Raleigh boasts of number of
hobble skirts, not many automo-
biles, you see some striking gowns,
but the horses do not compare
with those seen in Hendersonville
during the season. The hotel ac-
comodations are good, and just
now are taxed to their limit.
There are scores and scores of
men who come to Raleigh seeking
positions within the gift of the
legislature, and there are scores
and scores, of course, who have
to return home, their ambition un-
satisfied. Some of the cases are
really pathetic, but there are
many applicants for each job at
the disposal of members of the
Legislature and for each applicant
landing safely dozen return to
their homes poorer and wiser.

Complaint comes to the Sena
tors from West Virginia from
! their constituents that the Senate
is not doing anything to alleviate
the hard times from which the
people are suffering. 1t is point
ed out that business is suffering
from the inaction of the Repub-
lican Senate, that coal mines are
working short time or are idle,
that money is scarce and that
business is being halted and de.
veloped of the State is being re-
tarded by the failure of the Sen
ate to act or to declare it's policy.
The House receives praise for
the business-like course it has
! p lrsued under Democratic guild
ance, but business is admitted to
. be bad and as was pointed out
recently by Senator Watson in an
, interview, it will remain bad till
some of the pending matters of
d. legislation are settled by the Sen
, ate one way or another.
! On top of the business situa
ton come reports from the Gov
erment telling that crops in
West Virginia are only 500 Per
, cent of the average for the last
ten yeai s and that prices of farm
crops are going downward rapid
ly.
The contested election case of
Rankin Wiley against James A..
Hughes, involving the seat in
Congress from the fifth West
Virginia district, came up in the
last week before the clerk of the
House of Representatives. Mr..
Wiley and Mr.. Hughes were rep
resented by counsel and it was
decided to print all testimony in
the case, which is expected to
make a volume of about $500
pages. The clerk directed the
printing of the testimony and
when it is completed the case will
be brought to the attention of
the House and referred to one of
the committees on elections.

(By f. j. Dyer, Special Corr
Washington, ID. c., June 10. -
The great society event of the
season was the silver wedding
celebration of the President and
Mrs. Taft, held in the White
House and the surrounding
grounds Tuesday evening.
There was an unusually large
guest list. as not only were all
those asked who are usually hon
ored with cards to the four win
ter receptions, but there were a
great many out-of-town persons
hidden to the affair. Conse.
quently it was hopeless to try to
entertaiA them all in the White
House, spacious though it is,
and the grounds were opened 70
help accommodate the ttrQng.
Electric lights and coloscd Ian
terms made the grounds fes i've.
while from the open windows Of
the East Room hoated the laugh
ture and buzz Of conversation,
mingled with the music Of the
famous Marine Band.
There was an almost uncx-
ampled attendance. Diplomats.
begemmed with orders and in
sigma; military men laden down
with gold lace; ladies in Paris
gowns and coruscaling with Jew
els all helped to make up a
spectacle which can be seen no
where else in the United States.
the President and Mrs. Taft
were almost overwhelmed with
congratulations and good wishes.
In just month from today the
first ground will be broken for
an exposition to be held in celc-
b. alton of the completion and
opening of the Panama Canal,
and President Taft will press
button which will close an cleo
trio circuit in San Diego, Cal,
and break out" a great flag
the Presidents own flag, especi-
ally constructed of unusually
large size for this particular
event-right over the spot where
the ceremonies are to take place.
The ceremonies will last four
days and will be Of unique splen-
dor. The President very cheer
fully promised Director General
D. G.. Collier that he would do
this. for, he said, he took an un-
usual interest in the San Diego
Exposition because it will ex-
plot the achievements of Uncle
Sam in reclamation, irrigation,
forestation and conservation,
and it also aims to bring together
the Latin-American republics
and unite them in an illustration
of what has been done in the de-
velopment Of the new world.
While not outlined on such O
large scale at the Panama-Pacific
