Subscriptions for Band Concerts.
Editor, Democrat:
An impression has been created to
the effect that the HendersonVille
Brass Band has been soliciting sub
scriptions for musical concerts on
Main street. We wish to correct this
for the reason that the local hand has
in no wise solicited subscriptions, but
so far as we can understand the sub
scriptions are were given for Dur
ham band.
The local band has been holding re-
hearsals for some time and is open to
engagements but so far we have felt
delicacy in soliciting private sub
scriptions, feeling that this matter
would be taken care of otherwise pro-
vided our services we're desired.
Respectfully,
THE HENDERSONVILI1 BAND,
BY E. j. Anders, Business Mgr.

Farm Demonstration Perkins makes
the simple statement in the Democrat
& that it is a question of whether farmers
want to SOW grass or buy grass. Very
simple isn't it? But, Mr.. Farmer, you
should chew it well before attempting
j to swallow with skepticism a simple
but important statement like this.
Hendersonyille is enjoying to the
fullest the light comedy tented on Main
street and the overflow attendance is
sufficient proof that the public doesn't
care for. anything serious like chau~
tauqna.t which was frosted out COM
pletely to the financial loss of about
twenty liberal pursed citizens.
The big enclosure on King street and
Third avenue promises to supply va
riety of amusement for the fun seekers
and in this way the tourists will be
provided with that which they mostly
seek in the way of entertainment
Things are getting lively in Henderson
vile along amusement lines.
The new revenue laws of Henderson,
Vile provide for many itinerant taxes
for the projections OF permanent busl-
ness in the city. Inn-keepers are
thinking the matter over seriously.
They contend that the boarding house
that pays both special and advalorem
taxes and tries to run through the
whole year is entitled to more consid-
Grafton than those who move from
year to year as the shifting sands
and who do not strive to build up
business for coming years. This is
question with merit.
