Sulzer S Accusers
Trying Film Flam
Game on Governor
Impeachment Court Wants More
Charges Preferred Against Accused
before That Can Reach Verdict.

Albany, October, 14.-The possibility
of an indefinitely long delay in reach
ing verdict as to the guilt or inno-
cenceN of Governor William Sulzer to-
day loomed up at his impeachment
raj here. This was suggested when
counsel for the Impeachment manag-
ers asked that the court recommend
to the assembly the bringing of a
new article of impeachment in the
event the testimony of Duncan W.
Pack, superintendent of public works
and Henry L. Morgenthau, ambassa-
dor to Turkey, should not be found
20 be revelent to any charge contained
in the present articles.
Whether this testimony was
relevant to article four, which charges
the governor with suppression of evi-
cence before the Frawley investigat
ing committee, today was the subject
of debate in executive session and un-
decided when adjournment until to-
morrow morning was taken. The ex-
ecutive session will be continued to-
morrow and on the result of the
courts deliberations will depend the
question as to whether twill at once
proceed to vote or await the action Of
the assembly, in the question of bring
ing the suggested new article of i'm
peachment.

OBVIOUSLY PERTINENT
SUGGESTIONS and FACTS
What Has Resulted From a Progress
siye Campaign in st. Petersburg
and the Same Thing Applies Here.

Last year six million dollars worth
of st. Petersburg real estate was sold
mainly to visitors in that wonderful
city.
In five years real estate values in
st. Petersburg have jumped from one
to six million dollars.
Three years ago st. Petersburg in
vested $250,000 in street improvements
and in city parks.
Their total investment to date along
this line is 100000.
They estimated that the visitors left
one million dollars there last year.
This was during the time it took the
aforesaid visitors to spend six mil
lion dollars for real estate.
Building sites in ST. Petersburg that
once sold for $500, before they made
these improvements, are now selling
for $4,000 to $4,000.
They have "Lengthened the Sea-
son!" in st. Petersburg, to 13 weeks.
That's what the Greater Henderson
vile club intends doing for Hender-
sonville.
They stand for paved streets, city
parks, civic improvements and civic
progress in st. Petersburg.
So does the Greater Hendersonville
club here.
The same methods that made ST.
Petersburg, rich and powerful will
operate to make Hendersonville rich
and powerful.
Civic improvements, of which paved
streets is the most important, and civic
unity, which means the Greater Hen
cersonville club, are the methods to be
adopted.

GERMANY MAY TAKE
HAND IN MEXICO MIX
United States Learns of Intention of
Germany to Send War Vessel to
Mexican Waters.

Washington, Oct. 13.-Germany's de.
cIsion to dispatch war ship to Mex
lean waters attracted wide attention
in official circles here tonight. No in
timatiOn had been received here of
Germany's intention and President
Wilson was informed only by press
d spatches of the action.
No formal comment was made on
the incident but it was apparent that
the Washington government was not
cispleased. The sending of a German
war ship is in line with the policy of
other European governments which
had vessels cruising off the Mexican
coasts from time to time during crit
cal moments of Mexico's internal
strife.
Significance of Action.
Sfgnih hcance- was attached to the
aFti6h by official Washington, how
ever; because it was accepted as indi-
eating that European powers who
previously had recognized the Huerta
sovernment-among which were Ger
many and Great Britain-now saw
evidence sof Huerta's inability to COM
pose the situation.

Hon. M. L. Shipman, commissioner
of labor and printing was a visitor to
Eendersonville> last Thursday en-
route to Raleigh from Asheville
where he presided at one of the ses-
sions of the fair on brotherhood day"
He had just returned from Washing
ton where he went in the interest of
G. E. Wilson of Hendersonville who is
an aspirant for the post of Director
General of Posts and Collector of
Customs for the Panama Canal Zone.
Mr.. Shipman called upon the Secre-
tary of war in company with Senators
Simmons and Overman. He stated to
the Democrat man that he believed
Mr.. Wilson's chances for receiving
the appointment are exceptionally
good. That both senators and the gov
eInor and practically all of the con-
gressmen of the state are for him and
tAat if he is not appointed it will be
because North Carolina has been al
ready given so many big places.
While in Washington Mr.. Shipman
called upon Col. w. H. Osborne, COM
missioner of internal revenue and was
assured by him chat the examinations
for deputy collectors, ETC., would be
modified if the Overman resolution
for any reason became ineffective.

l. I
OF the Good Roads Committee was read
and adopted and the committee thank
ed for its good work:
Every effort is being made to expe-
dite the work of building good roads
in Henderson county.
Your committee believes the actual
work of construction will start within
the next 80 days.
As you already know, only $25, 900
of good roads funds is now available.
! No other money than this $4,000 has
so far been received. 1t is probable
the balance, in other words, the town.
ship bonds, will be paid within the
next few weeks.
This $25, 900 which is now available
was authorized by act of the Legisla-
ture and the County commissioners
have sole control of it's expenditure.
The county commissioners, however,
wish to cooperate with the township
trustees, who will solely control the
Expenditure of the township bonds, and
any apparent delay is the result of
wishing to avoid duplication of effort
and a waste of money.
The county commissioners are now
making arrangements to start con-
struction. A vast amount of informa-
ton relative to the necessary machin-
cry, etc., has been secured and firm
! foundation laid for the successful,
economical and harmonious eonsuma-
ton of the work.
The commissioners and the trustees
: both desire to work in unity in this
matter for the public good. 1t would
be a waste of the public's money for
both to buy idehtically the same pieces
of machinery and there are many
economies to be effected by thorough
cooperation of the two bodies.
Therefore, to sum up the good roads
situation briefly.
Only $4,000 of the road funds is
available. The balance will be in
hand within a few weeks when the
work will start. In the meanwhile no
time has been lost. Plans have been
prepared, estimates secured, co-opera-
| tion between the commissioners and
| the trustees assured.
And finally, the county commission
ers are prepared to take definite action
/ in this matte rat their next meeting, II
not before And when they do start
your committee is perfectly well sat
isfed they will DO something and dc
lit RIGHT. Respectfully submitted.

Something had to be done. Jerry

said so. Billy Mink said SO. Little
Joe Otter said so. Even Spotty the
Turtle said so. The Laughing Brook
couldn't laugh and the Smiling Pool
couldn't smile. You see there wasn't
water enough in either Of them to eth.
err laugh or smile. and nobody knew
II there I'VE would be again. Nobody
had ever known anything like it be-

think or do. And yet they all felt that
something must be done.
What do you think. Billy Mink?"
asked Grandfather Frog.
Billy Mink looked down from the
top Of the Big Rock into the little
pool Of water that was all that was
left Of the Smiling Pool. He could
see a dozen fat trout in 1t, ana he
knew that he could catch them just
as easily as not. because there was
no place for them to swim away from
him. But somehow he didn't want
to catch them. He knew that they
were frightened almost to death al
ready by the running. away Of nearly
all the water from the Laughing
Brook and the Smiling Pool, and
somehow he felt sorry for them.
