The Southern Railway and the
b anking interests have confidence
in the future of the South. Said
President Fairfax Harrison of the
Southern in an address before the
Lynchburg Chamber of Commerce. -
am glad to be assured that these
bankers have realized that the
South is the coming part of the
United States, and so are confident
that they can safely venture their
reputation in distributing the secur-
tiles of Southern Railway Company
under present day conditions. I am
glad, too, to believe that have their
personal confidence and that they
will listen to my recommendations.
They have already supplied fifteen
million dollars of absolutely new
money on such recommendation
since the first of January last, and
they ara ready to supply more for
further improvement of the South
ern Railway plant. All of this is to
be spent for the South, most of it in
the South, in such ways that event
ually it will seep into the accounts
OF many Southern merchants lust
as the proceeds of a large crop
eventually reach the merchants.
Every one whom I now address has
an interest in the disbursement of
this money and in what will result
IN the way of personal convenience
and facility for doing business from
Its expenditure. 1t is as if new
crop worth fifteen million dollars

The Home Coming spirit is mani
Testing itself all over Western North
Carolina The movement in Jack
son county to have a home coming

tinct part of the general movement
in this section. We all want the
folks who have left this section to
come home. We are going to have
a regular reunion of the Jackson
County family Begin now to prepare
to.come home this fall. You will be
surprised to see the wonderful pro-

There is a decided rumor to the
effect that one Of our citizens will
erect a tourist hotel at an early
date. This is one of the improve
ments that has been expected for
some time and is the natural conse-
quence of the growth of the town
and the great increase in the number
of tourists that come to this section.
Nowhere in all western North Caro-
lima is there a better locatian at the
present time for q tourist hotel than
at Sylvia. The climatic conditions,
the excellent water, the purity of
the air, the natural grandure and
beauty of the scenery, together
with the splendid highways that
are being constructed combine to
make Sylvia within short time one
of the most popular resorts in all
Appalachia.

There are a few folks who in
order to force the railroads to dive
them what they term their rights,
will put both the railroads and the
public to a great inconvenience.
There was an incident of this kind
at Willets the other day. A trestle
between Willetts and Addie had
been burned and it was necessary
or the passengers to transfer be-
tween these two points. There ) ere
only a limited number of vehicles
in which the people could travel
and there were given to the women.
childre l, and old men, the rest of
the folks walked, except one gentle
man, who had ticket to New York
and protested that he had a right to
ride all the way. So we remained
at Addie until the vehicles went to
Willetts and returned to Addie for
him. This necessitated the holding
of the train for about an hour for
one man. So in order to satisfy a
selfish whim of his own he was
willing to and did inconvenience a
whole train load Of people. 1t is
true that he had the law on his
side but everybody with one ex-
ceptiOn took the circumstances into
consideration and were willing to
make the best of the matter and
walk up the mountain. 1t is probable
