And these friends are in all ranks

SULPHUR AND ZINC.
Rates Made by the Grasselli Company
in Purchase of Iron Pyrites.

The Joplin correspondent of the En-
gineering and Mining Journal has the
following regarding the purchase of
iron pyrite ores by the Grasseli
Chemical company, which is interest
ing in view of the controversy be-
tween that company and the Success
Mining company, in which the Gras-
SELF company is asked to make con-
cessions in the zinc contract as an Off
set to the profits derived from the
sulphur in the ore, a controversy that
has been carried to the mines and
mining committee of the senate:
"A market for iron pyrites has been
established The Grasselli Chemical
company has authorized the payment
of 26 cents per unit of sulphur per
long ton Of 22O0 pounds. laid down
al its consuming plant. with a PEN
atty Of deduction of one-half a unit
Of sulphur or 10 cents for every 1 per
cent of metallic zinc contained in the
ore. This applies to high grade ores
containing in excess of As per cent
sulphur, and less than per cent met
allie zinc. Twenty cents unit
with the same deduction for zinc, will
be paid for low grade ores containing
in excess of As per cent sulphur and
with as much as IL per cent zinc Or
this basis, an average high grade ore
will bring the producer about 81 net
for 2O00-pound ton, and he mus
pay the loading charge out of that"

took place yesterday. The market was
resctionary almost throughout the

REPUBLICANS name
COUNTY TICKET
ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING

; At a well attended, harmonious
| and enthusiastic convention held in
| the court house last Saturday, the
Republicans of the county named the
following candidates:
For Representative in the Legisla-
ture, Brownlow jackson; Constitu-
tional convention, A. B. Freeman;
Clerk of Court, C. M. Pace; Sheriff,
Allard Case; Register of Deeds, A. O.
Jones; Tax Collector and Treasurer,
WIZ. Brown; Surveyor, Henry Revis;
Coroner, DIR. T. w. Summer; County
| Commissioners, Sidney ]. Whitaker,
John N. Russell and John Albert
Maxwell.
R. H. Station presided as chairman
of the convention, and w. T. Drake,
W. C. Rector and W. C. Stradley
acted as secretaries.
Some short talks were made by the
chairman and other members of the
convention, all of whom declared that
the war must be speeded up and won
by the allies at the earliest moment
possible. The loyalty of the Repub-
lican party, they declared, has always
been and always will be measured
only by the possibilities. Moreover,
they said a large majority of the peo-
pie of this country believe in the prin-
ciples of the Republican party-prin-
ciples which will endure as long as
our government shall Standard
that after wandering in the wilder
ness for several years they are get
ting mighty anxious to see the party
back in power. The Republican
party is the party of the future, it
was declared, and much work ahead
be done by it.
There was no contest in connection
with any of the nominations that call
ed for a second ballot, except in the
case of tax collector and two county
commissioners. And the balloting in
connection with these nominations
was of a quiet and friendly nature.
There were four candidates for the
position of tax collector, and it took
two ballots to determine the matter,
The candidates voted for on the last
ballot being w. F. Brown, the incum-
oent, and A. E. Hudgins. Mr.. Brown
Won over MI. Hudgins by a very mar
:ow margin, and was declared duly
nominated.

MR.. GOING.

The departure of Gordon F. Gar
1ington, as told of elsewhere in these
columns, takes from Hendersonville a
familiar figure. For nine years his
work on the Hustler has given him
possibly a closer daily contact with
the business elements of the city than
any other person has enjoyed and the
information thus gained has been to
his advantage. Some of it has been
used to good advantage in the Hust-
Ter through which, in many ways, in
advocating community needs, Mr..
Darlington has done his bit, and Gre
ated an influence which is impossible
to ascertain.
Mr.. Darlington is a hustler, with
no Stacking qualities. He is congen-
ial, afable, upright and honorable,
and these qualities, with the expert
ence he has gained, will stand him in
good stead in his bigger line of work,
which is not altogether new. 1t is
for this work that he is best qualified
and his training along these lines
with the Hustler from week to week
and his fondness for this particular
field of labor will spell success and
we expect to see him climb rapidly in
the advertising world. The Hustler
and Hendersonville will greatly miss
him.

BAT CAvE-cHIMNEY ROCK.

The Hustler this week turns the
light of publicity on the Bat Cave
and Chimney Rock sections. AL
though this section which is lavishly
blessed with the grandest of scenery
and a most inviting climate suffered
severely from the ravages of the 1916
flood, it was by no means annihilated
and today the entire section revels in
the rich promises of vast develop
ment.
The Hustler in it's feature article
calls attention to some of the prime
developing factors and while these
are important, there r others. The
building of the fine State highway
through the heart of the whole sec
ton promises great things. Scenery
and climate are both inviting and it
is reasonable to believe that at an
early date the whole Broad River
valley will be studded with, the homes
of numerous. persons attracted by
the charms of the country.
The promises for the future r
bright, but they are easily blighted.
1t all depends on how the people re-
ceive the opportunities, and what
they endeavor to make of them.
Only by the spirit of ~friendliness can
this section be developed into what is
destined for it. The residents must
lend a helping and willing hand to
those who propose to help them bring
the section to a higher stage of de-
velopment. Narrow-minded and I'M
fair and unreasonable tactics will not
serve a good purpose. The spirit of
opposition to those who are con-
tributing materially to the welfare of
the community would result disas-
Welcome the strangers and show
them every reasonable courtesy and
consideration so long as they act
n~onorably in their undertakings. Get
together, stay together, work togeth-
er and boost, for opportunity be-
.ongs to this divinely blessed section
which easily lends itself to almost
unlimited development.

MRS. c. A. HOBBS INJURED
IN AUTO ACCIDENT TUESDAY

Mrs. C. A. Hobbs sustained an ugly
cut on the forehead and suffered a Sc
we're shock on Tuesday night when
the car she occupied collided with
that of Mr.. Moore, of AsheviIle.
Mr.. Hobbs and Mr.. Moore did not
hear the signals and as a result the
two cars ran together in the Flat
Rock section.
The cars were damaged and some
of the occupants were bruised and
badly shocked in addition to the inju-
ries received by Mrs. Hobbs. The in
juries from the windshield were quite
severe and the wound was so large
that several stitches had to be made
in order to close it.
French Broad hustler. [volume] (Hendersonville, N.C.) 1916-1919, 1918-05-16

The Hustler this week gives con-
siderable space and prominence to
the Red Cross work. Henderson
county is asked to contribute the
small amount of $4,000 in the drive
for 100000 600. We need not elab-
crate just here on the good work of
the Red Cross and the Importance Of
doing our part. These things are
amply emphasized elsewhere.
The quota is small for this county
and we should not content ourselves
with meeting the obligation. We
should at least double it.

DEMONSTRATOR
BUSY WITH NEW WORK

county as home demonstration agent.
The duties of Miss Baker will be the
furtherance of various kinds of club
work in which the ladies and young
people are interested. This kind of
work, as fully explained in last
weeks Hustler, is accomplishing re-
markable things in many counties in
North Carolina.
Miss Baker would be pleased to
confer with any interested in her line
of work.
