time that that paper understood
that Henderson had repudiated it's
obligations to the Association, for
the currant year.
The Western Carolina Democrat,
published at Hendersonville, hast
ems to explain that it was only the
Greater Hendersonville Club that
withdrew from the Association,
that Henderson will continue to
give it's support and will pay it's
obligations. But at the same time
the Democrat proceeded to make
some unpleasant remarks CONCERN
ing the Courier calling it journal
of misinformation,' and speaking Of
the article in question as a nasty
EDITORIAL and ending it's article
with this
The Democrat would also warn
Editor Tcmpkins of the Jackson
county journal to be sure of the
ground on which he stands when
he insinuatingly asks:
so Henderson has withdrawn
from the Greater Western North
Carolina association? Upon what
meat doth this. our Caesar feed that
he has grown so great?' Did Hend-
erson become too big for the asso-
citation or is the association too bic
for Henderson,
Whad 1aya mean-be sure of our
ground? Dees the Democrat in
end to leave the impression that
ii the Journal does not at all time
agree with the opinions of the
Democrat and the Greater Hender-
sonville Club that it will also be
placed in the in the Annias Club
with the Courier? That it will be
called Nasty Malicious or
"Ignorant"?
Really, now, Brother Hollowell
don't you think that it would have
been much better if Henderson had
explained it's position before it was
called upon for an explanation?

We have had 100 applications for
the sale Of Ships said the witness. He
said that many of these applications
were from people not in the ship busi-
ness. though many had come from ship
brokers' and from other steamship
lines. One came from C. w. Morse, for

Mr. Sickel insisted that the vessels
controlled by his company in American
waters were not for sale, except a
small percentage.
Don't Need the Money.

Mr. Sickel. Every advice from the
other side is that the company can get

Mr. McAdoo late last November or
