THE G. W. N. C. CONTROVERSY.

Brother Wilson of the WaynesvlIie
Courier is a pretty good sort of a fe'
low after all. We iknew 1t was N
him, but we began to despair of in
ducing him to show the proper and
fair spirit in the controversy about
utilization with the Greater Western
North Carolina association.
The Courier has cooled off and is
low willing to drop the matter with
outhaving gained anything by prema-
ture criticism, so we wish to thank
Brother Wilson for his determination
to do what is right, which we gather
by reading between the lines Of last
weeks editorial reproduced below.
Since the Courier absolves the pres
ent editor of the Democrat from the
incident of which he spoke and shows
a willingness to do the right thing, we
will set him right in his last unintend-
ed error about the Democrat having
done a few rude things. The French
Broad Hustler and the Democrat were
two different papers. The Democrat
is three years old. The papers were
consolidated, but if memory serves US
right, neither published the article IN.
question. 1t was the Daily Herald.
which has since suspended publica
ton. :
Mueherblige, Brother Wilson, for
closing the incident. All of US will
leap far more through friendlipess
nd cooperation on the part of all of
Western Carolina than we can hope
to gain through Jealous knocking.
Let's hereafter boost instead of
knock. This highly favored section is
Zig enough for all of us to keep of
each others toes.

lows:

FARM DEMONSTRATION PUBECIT1

Realizing that he can convey tQsthe
farmers of Henderson ceuntH much
valuable information through the
press, Farm Demonstration Ernest L.
Perkins has agreed to furnish the
democrat with original articles on
most timely farm and fruit growing
topics. Last week the Democrat pub
lished an article on deep blowing and
this week it carries a most timely
article on fruit spraying.
1t is highly important that the
farmers carefully study these contri-
buttons and then if further information
is desired it can be had by applying to
MI. Perkins in person.
These articles do not mean that he
will not continue his demonstration
work just as thorough as before but
that in addition he will tell the farm
ers something which they should know
as the seasons go by.

THE TAX.

Hendersonville is to be congratulate
ed on having a wide awake organiza-
ton like the Greater Hendersonville
club. 1t only needs more recruits
and then the accomplishments would
be much greater.
The club acted wisely in adopting
the Industrial tax plan for supporting
the club in part.
It is just as necessary that the peo-
pie of HendersonvilIe help support
TINS commercial organization, which Is
for the benefit of the public, as it is to
telp support the county and city gov
eminent, hence the necessity for levy
i0g a small, un~burdensome tax to do
fer the people what they should vol
UNFAIRLY do for themselves,-build a
greater, better and more popular
Hendersonville.
Once the people are thoroughly en-.
lightened on this subject there can be
nc reasonable objection whatever.
i. We look for this Industrial tax to
work wonders.

MORE OF DUB NEEDS.

81 have a curiosity to know
What you are going to- agitats
Fext. You started the county cons
mencement movement now under
way, you were responsible for the
corn show, you worked hard to
keep the farm demonstrator and
we finally raised the funds, you
preached better health until we got
a health officer, you agitated an
industrial tax and it looks like we
will get it, and I'm wondering what
you want next"
Thus congratulated an admirer of
the Democrat this week. 1t does seem
that we should feel highly satisfied,
hut a progressive paper, and We
have no use for the knocking
kind even though they knock by therr
silence on important measures, is the
only kind that should be published in
Hendersonville, therefore we have
L1enty of other things in mind that we
greatly need.
We do feel that our efforts have not
been in vain for we have some a%pprecia-
tive readers who congratulate us from
cay to day on u efforts in behalf o.
the community, but we shall strive to
their confidence by pushing
ahead.
Here are some of the things we
need:
A county fair, a county farm life
school, municipal building and park,
girls canning club work, rest room for
country people coming to town, water
troughs in the city for the farmers
stock, safety gates at the depot during
the summer, better spirit of co-opera-
ton among the farmers, more paved
streets and sidewalks, ladies' civic
cub, merchants association, etc., etc.
ere is plenty to work. for and when
he people will cooperate with us we
will keep up the good work.

FARM DEMONSTRATORS.

While the Shelby Highlander is in
error about the county commissioners
OF Henderson making an %appropria-
tioh for the farm demonstration work
It registered our sentiment in an edi-
torial last week.
Our county commissioners are not
to be condemned in the least. They
should be pitied rather than censured
for the blunder they no doubt consider
a wise step. We trust that at an early
date they will see their mistake ami
come across with an appropriation of
$500 and 500 for girls club canning
work in the county which would also
be conducted by the government.
The Highlander says:
Henderson county tried the plan Of
a~bolishing the farm demonstration.
But so great was the protest of
Henderson citizens that the commits
n have rescinded their action
and re-instated the demonstration
This is in line with progress and Hen
derson county places herself once
more in the honor-roll of counties.
1.-THE Highlander is requested nearly
every day by some farmer friend to
condemn u Cleveland commissioners
Tor abolishing the Office of demonstra-
tor.
We do not wish to condemn the
commissioners. They doubtless acted
from a sense of duty to the public
from a sanse of economy-but they
are mistaken, we sincerely believe.
The friends of agricultural pro.
gress rightly argue that as the county
spends thousands upon thousands for
the education of the young, it is but
justice to the bread producers of our
country that they be given the ad-
vantage of expert advice from a public
demonstration.
In fact, we believe that a demon.
who fills his Office properly
is worth his weight in gold to a county
like old Cleveland.
We believe that our commissioner
men, who desire the best
good for their county-will heed the
demands Of the farming class and viii
restore the Office of demonstrator in
Cleveland" !

CITY ROADs.


The people in Hendersonville town.
ship are determined to have better
roads. So far as they have tastedthey
ike the improvements already made
They want more. Sentiment for hef4
ter roads within the city limits Is
growing by leaps and bounds as the
mud becomes deeper and travel more
| difficult. Some people want this done
and others want that. What will they
decide upon for an agreement2
This is a question that should have
mature consideration. There are
those who believe that the city should
have a portion of the $4,000 township
road bond issue while others say suck
would be illegal. The city pays about
g. per cent of the bonds, the outlying
portion of the township the remainder
There is a movement on foot to
have the road trustees appropriate =
few thousand dollars for improving the
main highways leading into the CITY
The roads have heen graded and sand
ed from the borders of the township to
tho city limits but then trouble begins.
The city is not financially able to issue
many more bonds and it is not in a DO
s;tion to build streets extensively witn>
out bonds, hence the movement for the
Improvement of its thoroughfares
With sand.
There is another movement on foot
looking to the issuance of bonds by
the city and the township, the AUDITING
property owners to pay half the cost
of improving the leading streets to
The city limits, where connection
would be made with the county roads.
This. improvement would call for
something more expensive, permanent
and lasting in the shape of a concrete
base.
Which plan should be adopted?
If the tax payers want something
as a temporary repair at practically
no additional cost, the sand-clay
streets should be made. If they wish
something OF lasting good but much
more expensive, then the concrete
base is the road to build.
Both plans sound feasible. The out
depends on the financial ability
and bond-issuing inclination of the
Don't rush. Consider both plans
VI ell before taking the final step
But. pray let us have the streets I'M
proved by some plan.

remarks of the Courier. After a care
FIJI consideration of this article We
fail to find therein any controverss
of the propositions advanced by this
paper. Only one portion of the articI:
| demands notice and it follows: Blu:
it does know that when The Courier
says (if it refers to an incident sup
losed to have taken place about four
ago. that the HendersonYiIle
Democrat itself featured the fact THAI
fccr hundred houses were empty in
Asheville in mid-seaSon and refused to
correct the lie, etc., that The Courier
tells an u~ntenable, unqualified, unwar-
ranted, uncalled-for and i~ndefensib1e
falsehood.' In this charge our con-
temporary is in part technically cor
rect. The statement referred to ap-
feared in the French Broad Hustler
which has since changed it's name to
the Western North Carolina Demo
srat and still remains under the same
ownership as at that time. The edi-
torial management has changed since
that time, however, and the present
editor of the Western Carolina Dem
ccrat had nothing to do with the Incl.
dent in question. To have been abb
sclutely correct The Courier should
have said the French Broad Hustler
instead of the HendersonvilIe Demo-
Graf, but the two are one and the
same thing. At this point we drop
the. discussion as a closed incident"

Again, why a board of directors OF
the States Prison? The handling OF
convicts appears to be in the hands of
the Governor and his council. The
Legislature should either give the di-
rectors of the States Prison absolute
charge of that institution. or abolish
the board of directors. 1t is apparent
that if the present board of directors
should be given a free hand it could.
and would, save the State around
$500, 900 a year. The board thinks SO.
and it ought to be "on the inside" It
is to be hoped that the Legislature
will give this board a free hand in
controlling conyicts, and other mat.
