CORNCLUB.
&
PRIZES ARE NOT.
VERY PROBABLE

To the neglect of the corn club in
terests of Henderson county, it is fear
ed by those interested in the promo
ton Of agricultural pursuits in this
section, the county commissioners will
not make an appropriation for club
purposes this year, h
At the first of May last year the con1A
missioners had appropriated 800 to be
distributed as corn club prizes in the
county and nearly 100 boys had enter1
ed the corn contest. III
The county commissioners, IL Is UNI
derstood have not made an appropriate
ton for this cause for the present
year, and owing to the lateness of the
season for such work it is generally
believed that the boys will not be en-
couraged in better methods of corn
growing by means of prizes awarded
by the county.
Despite the fact that no prizes are
expected from the county authorities.
eighteen young Henderson county
farmers have entered the contest con-
Quoted by the State and are preparing
to put forth their best efforts in corn
growing with the view to prize win
ming.
All contestants must be between ten
and eighteen years old, each boy plant
ing one acre of corn in one piece. The
planter is required to do practically
all the work himself. Full instruc-
tons can be had from Prof. 1. O..

PONFRCASES'
CONSOLIDATED TRIAL.
AT next Term Of COURT.

IN a nearing at chambers in. Hen
dersonVille Saturday, Judge C. C. Lyon
made an order in the condemnation
and injunction proceedings with
reference to the Blue Ridge In
terurban Railway company n the,
Hendersonville Light and Power
company, consolidating the cases.
and directing the clerk of Supe-
rior court to enter the consolidated
actions upon the civil issue docket for
trial at the term of court converting
here on May II.
1t will be recalled that in the case
of the Blue Ridge ~Interurban Rail-
way company against r. M. Oates and
the Hendersonville Light and Power
company and the American Trust Com
pany an order was obtained in March
appointing a jury to assess the value
of certain lands under condemnation
On Big Hungry where the Henderson,
vile Power company's plant is located.
AS result of this a temporary in
junction was obtained by the plaintiff
in the case of r. M. Oates and the
Hendersonville Light and Power COM
pany against the Blue Ridge I~nterur-
ban Railway company enjoining the
railway company from condemning the
lands and property on Big Hungry,
portions of which are the holdings of
the Hendersonville Light and Power
company. The hearing Saturday was
gained with the view to having
the enjoining order made permanent,
but after Judge Lyon heard petitions,
amdavits, arguments, etc., he suggest
ed the consolidation of the two cases,
to which Interested attorneys readily
consented. 81
1t was agreed that tn e~plaintiffs in
the second action file their complaint
on May 8 and that the defendant file
its answer thereto by May 10, it being
agreed that all the issues of Law and
fact arising upon the pleadings in
both auses be tried by the court and
jury with the same legal effect as if
all preliminary steps had been regular
lY taken.
Among those heard in the case Sat
urday for the railway company were
Attorney Smith and Shipman Of the
local firm of Smith, Shipman & Justice,
Horace. Bomar of the firm of Bomar &
Osborne of Spartanburg, and Attorney
Guthrie of the Charlotte firm of Tillett
* 00IA11Os EEr-E
Appearing for the local power COM
pany were Judge III. Merrimon, ]. ].
Britt and C. F. Toms of Asheville and
Mieheal Schenck of Hendersonville.
The greater part of the day was con-
sumed with argument, in the course
OF which it was charged that the rail
way company was only a sham, cats
paw or dummy" corporation having as
its ultimate aim the condemnation of
lands to the benefit of the Southern
Power company.
1t was contended by opposing coun-
sci that the railway company did not
want to condemn property to the in
jury of the local power company's
plant o any of the holdings of said
concern susceptible of development.
The order signed, Saturday does
not necessarily mean that the case will
be tried at the coming term of court
for the local bar will have to unani-
mously consent to the advancement of
this ease unless the Judge peremtorily
| sets it for trial. All parties interested
therein are anxious to have the case
tried as early as possible.

PLANT


The farmers Of this section have
been extremely busy for the past few
days while favorable farming wealth
er has been prevailing.
Farmers from various parts of the
county report much progress during
the past week or So in the prepara-
ton of the soil for planting purposes.
Although opportunities have not been
neglected in any section, the farmers
appear to have made more progress
in some sections than in others.
; Commissioner of Agriculture Al
bert Cannon of the Horse Shoe sec
ton who is, always very optimistic
even when things appear a little dis
couraging 1T first sight, says that
there is no cause for complaint in any
delay in his section. He says that he
has been farming for about forty-tWo
years and that corn planted in May
will be just as good as that planted
during the last two weeks of April
in the event the seasons are favorable.
In his section the farmers have plant
ed about the usual crop of Irish po-
tatoes and are now preparing to plant
corn, some having planted a goodly
portion of the years acreage while
others will not be prepared until sew
eraI more days of blowing have been
put in.
Senator T. B. Allen came in from his
fertile Mills River farm Saturday, tan
ned very much from exposure between
the ploW handles. Although he could
not report conditions as favorable az
they might possibly be in the Mills
River section, some hard work is be-
ing put in on the farm and the farmers
will soon finish planting corn, having
finished planting spu6s. .stL8'Ht
ExISheriff A. M. Blackwell N2s in
town Saturday from the Upward sec
ton and he reported wonderful pro-
gress among the farmers of his COM
munity. They have finished planting
potatoes and have made fair progress
in corn planting. r
After a weeks fair weather the far
mers welcomed the rains of Saturday
as the soil was becoming hard and dry.

REPUBLICAN TICKET:
For MayOr-D. s. Pace.
For Aldermen. Nj. Stepp, A. j.

By a cut and dried process the re-
publicans in. convention at the court
house Thursday night nominated ID. s..
Pace as candidate for mayor and ]. M.
Stepp, A. j. Gibbs, and Wiltshire
Griffith as candidates for the office of
aldermen to oppose the ticket named
by the democrats during the week
previous.
The meeting was Gale dto order by
Mayor R. H. Station, who sounded a
note of progressiveness, predicted re-
publican victory on May s apparently
without the slightest conjunction of
conscience.
R. C. Clarke was eelcted chairman
and T. w. Valentine was made secre-
tary.
Mayor Station nominated D. S. Pace
as a candidate for mayor, in a remi-
niscent speech in which he pointed
back with pride to the day when he
knew Mr.. Pace as a little barefoot
boy. He had known him through all
the changes of life until now he is a
man of moderate wealth and great in
duence hereabouts. In short he sized
Mr., Pace up as being about the only
ma nthat could fill the place c~reditably
n he took great pride in laying
upon his shoulders the mantle of
mayoralty.
It was moved that the nominations
be closed. Of courses the nomination
was then made unanimous
The following were nominated as
candidates for the Office of aldermen:
A. J.. Gibbs and Wiltshire Griffith. 1t
was moved that the nominations be
closed. They were nominated unani-
mously.
Mr.. Pace was then called upon for a
speech. He paced around ON the floor
for several minutes in proclaiming his
platform and predicting democratic
defeat on May s. He said that the
democrats reminded him of Jacob of.
old; that they would do along fairly
we'll but that they had many bad prin-
ciples of which they should be cleans
ed. He said that he had accepted the
nomination with the hope and belief
that during his administration (three
being no apparent question in his mind
about winning the .e%lection) crime and
wickedness would be greatly decreas-
ed. He believed in lending a helping
HAND to the downfallen and trodden
remnant of humanity instead of kick
ing the poor fellows IN down the hill.
He went into Chinese criminal proce-
dure to some extent then drifted back
to the great future awaiting Hender-
sonvile under a proper administration.
Mr.. Stepp, Mr.. Gibbs, Mr.. Griffith
and u. G. Station made short talks and
the convention adjourned.

WISCONSIN READY
FOR NEW STTLERS.
State Well Provided With Rail-
roads, Lands Drained and
Profit Opportunities Large.

By A. d. Campbell, Manager Wiscon-
sin Advancement Association IN
Minneapolis Journrl.
The homeseeker may want to know
about special crops have little faith
in the '1ittle lander" propaganda that
was in the limelight short time but
which has died in timely and we'll
deserved manner. But there are spe
cial crops which the Wisconsin farmer
may we'll make a partlof his operations.
Among them are clover seed, sugar
beets, peas for the canneries, pickles,
cabbage, onions, rutabagas, and, of
course, the potatoes for which upper
Wisconsin is famous. Undoubtedly
there are other special crops but the
above are thepnes that are more large
ly raised in Wisconsin and they pro-
duce certain and profitable returns.
They should afford an ample adjunct to
the operations of the farmer.
The settler going into upper Wiscon-
sin at this time is not a pioneer in the
old sense. Wherever he goes he will
find well esta blished settlements around
the scores of prosperous cities end
towns, where he can locate on well
built roads and often with rural tele-
phone lines and rural mail routes al
ready passing his land. Everything is
up-to-date in upper Wisconsin. The
stores cater to every need and whim,
the banks are modern, physicians and
other professional men are within easy
reach and schools, churches and social
orders prevail to greater extent than
usual.

Francis Reavey and Selma Rusch
Editors.
There are only fifty-fve pupils in
high school this year.
The Seniors this year can boast of an
algebra w class, even if Ray Du-
Brucq is this only pupil in it.
Although the freshman class is u.s.
ually the largest class, this year it is
the smallest. There are twelve
"Freshies" of which but two are BOYS.
Anna Carlson, Clinton Alexander
and Raymond Derrah were visitors at
the high school Wednesday. The two
boys visited the American history
class and were asked to give speech,
but because the time was so short thsy
asked the class to wait until Friday.
Entertainment Course.
A first class course is assured us this
year. The Century Lyceum Bureau of
Chicago furnishes the talent. The
numbers are as follows,
Concert Favorites November II.
Dana Walden January "a.
Chicags Lyceum Players February 5.
Old Kentucky Quartette February 26.
1t is hoped that the advance sale Of
season tickets will be large enough to
make necessary the use of an opera
house. This course is costing the COM
mittee S225. 90 and is backed by twenty
business men of Wabeno and Soperton.
It the course is more than self~support-
ing the balance will be used in buying
something of permanent value for the
schools. We hope to clear enough TO
buy stereoptican.
Fuller announcement will be made
later.
