iPFREcrAr1Ne THE NEWSPAPER.

The Democrat highly appreciates
expressions of satisfaction from its
readers for the excellent news service
given. Two unusually high compli-
Taents were paid the issue of May z
md the fact that they were from men
fully capable of Judging but who sell
dom throw bouquets makes their sx-
rressions doubly appreciated.
Criticisms and compliments are al
ways welcomed, for by the former we
are able to see our short comings and
by the latter we are assured that our
services are appreciated.
For some time the Democrat has
ranked among the leading weekly
newspapers of the State, if the word OF
cur friends who are capable Of 1udg-
ing is worth anything.
We are becoming more convinced
THAT our services and efforts to up
build the whole Of Henderson county
and give an unexee1led news service,
&c appreciated BY grateful public. It
lis a matter of slow education but we
are conddent Of seeing the day when
| the reading public viii appreciate the
difference in the merits of publica-
tons purporting TO be newspapers.
The sheet that occasionally carries q
morseI OF news on the front page and
plate matter of q foreign nature on its
other pages and spends considerable
portion of its news space in exploit
ing the fact that it carried certain
piece of news first, will sooner or later
find that such a gag won't take
with the reading public
We realize that the readers wanted
the news as well as some views on
current issues of vital interest to the
home people, thereto re we raised our
subaeription price from 81 to $i:5o per
year So as to be able to give what they

The Democrat two weeks ago gave
in Addition to is own views those OF
prominent citizens OF Hendersonville
on chow tp 70 pFoloug the. season
and promised 70 submit plan tendins
toward a successful solution. The
Democrat pointed out that our possi-
biiities are by no means exhausted;
that great future awaits US that wS
have among US type Of citIzenship
that does not contribute to civic pro-
gress but like parasites, sap the lire
blood OF the community; that it is the
clear duty Of these to help promote
the interests OF the community from
which they receive their livelihood;
that in order to accomplish this,
greater unity Of effort and harmony OF
action is necessary, out of which
would grow a cooperation that would
more widely advertise our many adj
vantages to the world.
The organization to which Hender-
sonville and Henderson county must
look primarily for growth and deYel=
opment is the Greater Hendersonyille
club. which has enjoyed fruitful
existence but has. been hampered in
its activities and accomp1ishments b.
reason of insuficient funds with
which to more extensively operate AMI
exploit our advantages Hence arises
the question of how to raise the funds
without working a hardship on any
one.
The Democrat believes that the ques-
ton of an advertising fund should be
submitted to the voters of the city.
AsheyiHe few years ago saw the need
of an advertising fund and the Gem
eral Assembly of North Carolina pass
ed an enabling act, providing for the
mayor and board of aldermen Of Ashe-
vile to annually set apart and appro-
pirate from the funds derived from
general taxes in the city an amount
not less than one-fortieth of one per
cent nor more than one-tenth Of ona
per cent of the assessed valuation of
all real and personal taxable property
in the city. the appropriation of funds
not to. be made unless authorized by
a vote of the majority of the qualified
voters of the city at public election.
This advertising tax yielded Ashe7
Vile $4,000 this year, with only the
minimum amount as. allowed by Law
being appropriated for advertising
purposes.
1t is possible for Hendersonville to
similarly raise 900 annually
through an enabling act and not Inn
pose q burden upon the, people who
would reap manifold benefits there
from, for what helps the community,
directly or indirectly benefits the
average citizen.
The real estate of Hendersonville
in assessed at $1,199. 100; personal
property at ss54,76S; corporations AZ
ss4 900: not including railroads, tele-
graph and telephone, which are as
sessed at $4,000; bank stock at ap-
l.roximately $4,000, making total
OF 81 ,S48, 1863. One-twentieth of one
per cent of this amount would ap-
proximate $1,000, which could not be
spent more probably than in adver-
Using Hendersonyille.
The Democrat believes that this plan
can be worked to great success and
the club could doubtless profit by
looking thoroughly into some proposi-
ton of this nature.

STREET HACK ORDNAaoE.


A valued feaaeF OF the Democrat
suggests that HeAd erscnyii1e needs &
street hack ;ofdinance which would
bind haekn6en and those who engage
hacks 20 keep their eaSga genlenta. This
reader points out various Instances
where people engaged q hack, bit To-
their dfsappo ointment the hackniail
failed 10 fii the engagement, thereby
inconveniencfng the wohld-be passens
ger. ~ a .ssss'sssa 80
Few things could be more disap-
pointing than to have an unnlled en-
gagement of this kind: for some times
failure TO catch certain train
means considerably more than ths
price Of hack.
The hackmen should be equally pro-
tected against those who make en-
gagements which they do not I'll. An
ordinance embracing this situation
would place responsibility and estab-
lish greater confidence between pas
senger and haekman and save the town
a hard knock by some displeased
and disappointed visiting passengers.
therefore we think the suggestion for
an ordinance along this line is timely
and worthy of the consideration of the
city commissioners and all others com
cerned

life by shooting himself through the
head with rifle The tragedy oc-
CURED at his winter home in Santa
Barbara, Cal, and came as surprise
to the general public The deceased
had builded for himself most en-
viable reputation as a manufacturer
of cereals, from which he became
immensely rich. In the estimation Of
labor unionists, Mr.. Post was an UNI
desirable citizen,--an unconqueraDle
foe. Some years ago the cereal king
had trouble with union laborers in his
employ and has since been the oit-
terest enemy with which the unioas
have had to contend, He spent mile
lions of money in abusing them
through the medium of newspapers
and other publications, Mr. Post WAS
a benefactor, in way and left an
impress upon the people of this coun-
try. But his death viii bring little
sorrow to the ranks of union labor,
for he would have DESTROYED the sys-
tenn had the opportunity to strike a
death blow been afforded him. Yet,
the children will continue to insist

sive brain and mammoth enterprises
