TOLLS REPEAL BILL DRAWN
TO DISCRIMINATE IN FAVOR OF
AMERICAN SHIPS.
Substitute Was Prepared by Simmons
for Democrats and Norris
for Republicans.

Washington. June S-The admins
tration has consented to an important
amendment IN the free tolls repeal
bill The president, when the bill first
came TO the senate from the house,
insisted that there should be no amend

however, that a change would have

has been made, because IT had become
apparent that the amendment would
have been voted over the opposition
OF the administration forces and tho
defeat would have put the presidents
supporters at tactical disadvantage
at the beginning of the votes on the
bill and its amendments.
The amendment was forced by Sen.

WAS THE sun F

The Rutherfordton Sun of last weel,
editorially asked: us the Sun unfair

Suns statement, one would be obliged
to answer, mo-"
The Sun states that MI. Gudger
mildly charged unfair treatment
The Sun gives some documentary evil
dence, showing that it copied from the
Asheville Citizen, and upon Mr.. Gud-
gers written request corrected what
the latter charged as being absolutely
a mistake" by giving his statement in
fulI and appending the following: "The
Sun does not wish to do MI. Gudger
a n injustice and gladly gives space to
the above"
The Sun of last week concluded
with the following:
'Now, could the Sun have done more
or less? 1t is a democratic publica-
ton and has never for a moment de-
Waited from the good old beaten track.
But it is asnewspaper, and claims all a
newspapers rights"
It appears to US that the Sun has
done all it can do not to make a farce
Of itself, but it is in the position Of
all other publications; that is, public
officials are inclined more or less to
charge unfair treatment against news
papers when they give what they con-
slider news, which is unfavorable at
times to the person in question. IT
you praise them, everything is lovely,

hellishments they do not take very

WESTERN CAROLINA FAIR.

q
The proposed purchase of ample
grounds and sale of preferred stock ii
the amount Of $25,0 by the Western
North Carolina Fair association a
Asheville should oncer not only thai
city but the whole of Western Carroll
ia. 1t is a big undertaking but when
accomplished will fill q long felt need
in various ways.
1t will provide something new for
the metropolis of the mountains in the
way of amusement grounds. 1t will
ultimately mean the greater develop
ment OF the agricultural, horticulture
I'll, and stock raising interests of the
greater portion of Western Carolina.
The Democrat can see no reason
why the western North Carolina fair
cannot do for the Western part of the
State what the State fair does for the
enire State.
The sale of stock would place the
fair association on a good working
E
basis and Gamble it to offer better
amusements more attractive pre-
NUNS and thereby induce the people
to make exhibits and attend in larger
numbers.
For reasons peculiar to themselves
the people of Western North Carolina
have not taken the interest in this in
stitution that they should have, for
wider and increased interest would
inevitably tend to the greater devel-
opment of the principal interests of
this mountain section.
Here's hoping that the association
will be able to consummate it's in
teresting and c~ommendable plans.

WHOLE-TIME SECRETARY.

The board of governors of the Great
er Hendersonville club has under con-
SHERATON the employment of a sec
rotary to succeed Mr.. T. R. Barrows,
resigned.
The Democrat believes that it would
be to the interest of the club to employ
a man to devote his whole time to the
business of the club. A full-time Sec
rotary would cost a little more but
would have no private affairs to con-
sumo the better portion of his time,
while the part-time man would get
small pay and would naturally give
private. matters first place. A man
should be paid $76 to 500 per month
for his services and if he could not
produce results and give satisfaction
he should be relieved of further SER
vice.
The fair association will need a Sec
rotary and the Democrat can see no
reason why the club secretary could
not give his attention to these duties,
provided he be paid for his time.
Under date of August % the Demo
craft expressed itself on this subject
and since occasion justifes further ev
r,esslon, we reproduce the following
editorial appearing in the Democrat on
tfat dates
In the absence of a acting secre-
tary the Greater Hendersonville club
is experiencing the most critical period
in its short but useful history. There
are varying opinions as to what course
the club should take az the members
hold different views as to what should

about being born. This writer has no
hesitancy whatever in making this
statement, nor does he think any
other honest thinking person will diff
fer with him.
Easter and spring follow winter and
if people want to make it into an
Easter festival of a religious kind, then
why not, for weeping endureth for
the night, but joy cometh in the morn
ing"
Later on, Mr.. Editor, we may have
scme rather caustic remarks to make
in reference to what may be called
peoples idosyncrasies on religious
subjects, but if so, it will all be with
federation, for
my brother, why should we fall ou.,
Why not forgive US all our doubts,
And we all our convictions?
No matter what our dreams may be;
At last when we awaken,
It may be plain to both you and ma,
We both were much mistaken
With kindness.
