REAL ESTATE DEALERS.
Met Yesterday to Plan for M'ntual
Protection.
A number of centlemen who are on-
gaged in the real estate business held
a meeting yesterday In the Hotel
Berkeley. W. W. West presided and
L. B. Alexander acted as secretary.
The meeting was held with the object
of securing protection for the regular
authorized real estate dealers of the
city. The fact has been brought to the
attention, of the dealers that a number
of men in the city are buying and sell-
fing property and negotiating loans in
violation of the revenue act and are not
paying the taxes for the privilege.
These men do not pose as regular
agents, but, it is said, are -doing a large
amount of business. A motion" was
made by J. B. BoStic to the effect that
all those who were present should re
port the names of those known to be
doing business in the manner complain
ed,! so that the names could -be sub
mitted to the proper authorities.' The
motknjwas seconded by F. Stikeleath
er, but; after some discussion, it was
decided to postpone definite action to
the next meeting.
Those present decided that the pro
ceedings of the meeting should not be
given out for publiition. for the pres
ent. Another meetineT wFl be held
Monday afternoon at 5 o'clock -at the
same place. . -

tne ruaa ap xne mountain to Sherrllrs
and beyond to the Rutherford county
line.
Thils will again open the way through
to the " beautiful couratv mirToundlnic
Esmeralda and Chimney Rock. For
some months this road from Falrview
to Bat Cave has been almost impassa
ble.
The last legislature did away with the
toll gate and did not make it a county
road. Now, largely through Colonel
Turner's efforts, people along the gap
are going to taKe tne matter into tneir
own 'hands and open the way throug'i
this gap to Asheville. It is important to
the farmers who live in the gap and be
low to be able to get to Asheville
fully as important as that the people
of Asheville and its visitors should be
able to visit the Esmeralda- country
for in the matter of watermelons and
potatoes alone AsheviMe is a very im
portant market for them.
The convicts have made the road as
far as Falrview one of the finest in the
County in fact no better dirt road ex
ists anywhere.. It is" now a most
charming carriage d ive, and the Im
provement of the road in Rutherford
county through the wild and pictur
esque portion of the famous gap- will
lure many travelers into the otropty of
cascades, caves, spectacular mountains
and roaring streams.
