BLEASE HITS
At BRYAN'S
TOUR

Governor Blease, in an Interview
Tuesday, attacked William Jennings
Bryan who 1ecteured here Sunday
for going into ChautauQua work while
secretary of State.
The governor said he did not be-
ieve the drawing OF double salary
was right and that Bryan should re-
sign from the cabinet If he found, as
the secretary of state indicated in an
Interview published here, that he could
not live on the salary Of the Office.
The governor further stated that
Mr.. Bryan's going about the country
lecturing reminded him of cheap
circus horse rider operating under the
crack of whip"
Governor Blease stated that Sena-
tor Ti1lman had ruined himself with
the people of South Carolina in lust
the same manner, when he went
about lecturing instead Of remaining
in Washington and attending to the
business of the senate.
It was learned by the correspondent
that Governor BIease has had three
offers to go into Chautauqua lecture
work, but has declined them for the
reasons cited in his condemnation OF
Mr.. Bryan.
hiE train Sunday he met Mr.. Bryan
and the two shook hands. The gov
ernor. is on his way to eileen Springs,
&C. gor brief rest.
While in Hendersonville he was the
guest of Senator McLaurin at his sum-
mer home on Main street.

message worth while to those to whom
it is worth presenting"
Then began the great lecture which
for an hour held the vast audience
enthralled Col. Bryan did not resort
to rhetorical flights but in masterful
way told his hearers that the world
was getting better and that progress
was noticeable in all of the countries
throughout the world both education.
ally and morally. He told Of his trav-
els and the optic evidence of the truth
of his assertions which had been given
him wherever he went. From a state
of almost absolute ignorance many
nations were fast becoming enlight-
ened and schools and churches were
s1ringing up in the most unexpected
places. He recounted how reforms
which made conditions better and re-
formers who were doing the reform
ing were increasing in number where
ever he had visited which included
nearly all of the civilized and some of
the uncivilized world. The lecturer
told how in Japan 80 per cent of the
Japanese can read and write and that
in the highest school sand universities
q lecturer speaking English did not
need an interpreter, for the English
was one of the important studies and
that the vast majority could UNDER
stand what was said in that language.
Col Bryan divided his lecture into
three divisions: Educational progress,
moral progress and the science of gov
eminent. He elaborated on school
conditions and showed that there was
never a time in the history of the
world when the desire for knowledge
was so great as at the present time
and that the opportunities for gaining
IT were keeping pace with the desire.
He pleaded for temperance and re-
counted how organizations for the
betterment and uplifting of the mem
bers were spreading and pointed out
that there were men societies In all
the churches which were doing q
wonderous work for the moral pro-
gress Of the people in every cline and
how apparent the far reaching effect
had already become He paid glow
ing tribute to the work being done
throughout the world by the Y NJ G.

"There are far more people in Hen

sSis s1 time last year" is the statement
w w. a gentleman here who is in a po-
- D;tion to know. That the amount Of
oGvertising done by the city of Hen
Sorsonville during the past winter
months is reaping a direct benefit is
an assured fact.
The railroad officials give eneourag-
INC news of the rapidly filing up OF
the the community with people coming by
rail Hundreds are making the trip
N automobiles. The report was cir
culated some time ago that the pass
over the mountains near the Green
Tille county line was dangerous and
many people were afraid to make the
rim in their machines. This report
has been corrected and now machines
can be seen coming over the noun
tains daily with the greatest ease.
Hendersonville will have the larg-
est season in the history Of the city
this year and the visitors will remain
longer than ever before.

character multiplies as the years pass

"But it would be presumptious on

tary of State, who will now address

His remarks were warmly applaud
ed and the appearance of Col. Bryan
was the occasion of a great outburst
of enthusiasm which shook the audito-
rum and which continued until the
great Commoner had begun his lee
ture. He prefaced his remarks with
the suggestion that it might appear
strange to the audience and to the
people at large that occupying the
high Office which he does. he should
appear upon the lecture platform
In this connection he made the state
ment which follows which he signed
for the press in general:
