The year 1110 has had its bitter and Its sweet, hut on the whole it has been ii good year to Ashevllle and western North Carolina. It has some sad memories for all of us, and it has borne Joys and blessing to most of us. Our community has enjoyed a reason able degree of prosperity, and is In position to look to its commercial fu ture with more assurance, perhaps than at the close of any past year. The year has been notable for ad vancement made in the interest and study of agricultural subjects, which things must eventually he the de pendence of all our people, both in eountrc :nnl Inun for nn iiaaururl .1,1,1 permanent prosperity. One of the first economies in this direction is the building of good roads, for the farm cannot be conducted on a business basis without them, and the closing year has brought a groat increase in good roads sentiment; in fact, we have about enough sentiment now for roads; what Is needed is work, and a very good beginning has been made in various communities that have not hitherto had good roads. The people are also beginning to think about a practical system of education in the schools, especially for farmers, but accomplishment in that line will be slow, we fear. The Gazette-News has abundant cause to be satislied with the year. Its Held has broadened, it has gone deeper Into the life of its community; it has been well supported by Its friends and has had a reasonable amount of stimulating fighting with ' other people. It has enjoyed an ex cellent business patronage and has steadily increased Its facilities for ser vice. Many have helpc in doing lunik 'or me pillule weiiure, anil In these Is due much of the credit for what publicity work has accomplish! I In many ways. U has been another year in a history of steady growth, and the paper starts the New Year with every reasonable prospect of a year of prosperity, should it continue to merit the favor and patronage of the public. And The Gasette-Newa extends to everybody hearty wishes for a bright, prosperous, happy New Year. AS TO DR. WINSTON. For reasons of propriety which we suppose are obvious, The Gazette News does not at this time herald a personal choice amongst the gentle men who have been or are about" to hi . ,'iiiii lii'mi wiiii me mayoralty race. But apropos of Mr. Coopers suggestion o' Dr. Winston, in a communication to The Gazette- Xews vesterrtav n,- mlnnj remark that his election would con fer honor upon Asheville, rather than upon the doctor; which Is, perhaps, also obvious. And the sessions of a board of aldermen over which the distinguished educator presided would be flavored with much wit and wis dom. Sittings of council would be come a series of symposiums to which lovers of the flavor of Attic salt would flock in great numbers. Incidentally, either Mr. Cooper or the proofreader conferred upon Dr. Winston an honor to which he Is not entitled, but a position which, we have no doubt, he would (ill with judicious dignity that of the presi dency of the colored A. and M. col lege; for it read "Greensboro," where it should have read, "Haleigh." What shall we do to be saved? was the title of one of Robt. Ingersoll's lectures. People of faith and people of no faith flocked to hear it. Thou sands are asking, "What shall I do to tret rid of dandruff?" The answer is, "Kill the germ that causes dandruff; and the only thing- that will do it is Newbro's Herplcide. That is the very latest discovery of the laboratory, and it is the only preparation that claims to, or that will, kill the pestiferous dandruff germ. It also is a delightful hair-dressing, free from oil or grease or sticky substances. Try It and be convinced of its actual merit. Sold by leading druggists.

The New Year is a good time, says Orison-Sweet Marden, in Success Maga zine, "to drop the yesterdays, to for get bitter memories;" and further: Resolve that when you cross the line between the old and the New Vi iiv you will close the door on every thing In the post that pains and can not help you. Free yourself from ev erything that handicaps you, keeps you back and makes you unhappy. Throw away all useless baggage, drop everything that is a drag; that hin ders your progress. Enter the door of the New Year with a clean slate and a free mind. Don't be mortgaged to the past, and never look back. Any day, any hour, is a good day or hour for good resolutions, and a good resolution is a good thing if it is kept for any time at all. Rut it is best to make only such resolu tions as you are reasonably certain you can keep and then start in the firm resolve that nothing shall swerve you from your purpose. Hitchcock nrrvlmhlv I,,.,..,.... , . . ui.vm.mov yii i u.l gentleman's known friendship for the colonel, and since that time he has aspired to the position of privy-coun-sello'. to the White House in political matters. Mr. Crane is believed to have been aware of, If be did not in spire, the act of the republican execu tive committee in North Carolina in calling a meeting out of season to en dorse the candidacy of Mr. Taft for another nomination, at the very time the Washington correspondents were sending out stories telling Mr. Taft is wlllin'. Two Objects of the Meeting. There were two separate and dis tinct objects In that meeting, the llrst, of course, relating to patronage. The. Hutler-Morehead contingent de sired to show to the president an awfully strong, if unseasonable, solici tude for his political welfare, to the end that he might bear their devoted loyalty in mind when the postoffice contests come up from time to time, while the prime movers, here in Washington, hoped to make the presi dent realize that he must look to them, and not to Mr. Hitchcock, for favors in the south, in the next national con vention. It has been remarked here that Senator Crane would hardly lave been a party, even when not directly interested, to a bid for patronage so transparent, but the Massachusetts senator is believed to be readv to tro to almost any length to simulant Mr. Hitchcock with respect to court favor. Again, it is pointed out. Mr. Crane did not himself experience the humil iation which the act of hailing the president as the best friend the south has ever had must have cost those who actually voted for the resolution with published enthusiasm. It must be borne in mind that some of these gentlemen, of flying squadron mem ory, have seldom got just what they wanted, unless that may be said of the author or the resolutions, who seems to have got his. The fact that the meeting had been called was given out here by a close friend of Marion Hutler, but its object was kept a pro found secret for fear somebody else would call a meeting and endorse Mr. Taft, which, for obvious reasons, would have been terrible. W. A. II. HELD OULLSESSION Routine Matters Occupied Attention of City Fathers Last Night Sewer and Water. A two weeks' term of Burke court closed on Saturday with the record of the trial of only three eases. Sonie one has figured that at this rate it would lake a 12-months continuous court to dispose of the civil docket. ".' nil c w hen the N'ews-Herald, speaking lor the people, talks about tb' slowness of our courts, it is threatened with humiliation denun ciation 'in open court' in other words, someone would rise to a 'ques tion of personal privilege.' Well, wi feel able to stand the 'denunciation' in the face of the record," says that contemporary Three cases in two weeks Is not what you could call pre cipitate action, for a fact. FOR REGISTRATION SIMPLICITY. The Raleigh News and Observer thus comments on Senator-elect Mar tin's plan for simplifying the registra tion problem: Betta.tOr-eIect Martin of Buncombe, according to The Asheville Gazette News, would like to eliminate the great confusion which exists on elec tion days by the present system which requires different registration books for city and county elections. Mr. Martin, if he finds a way possible, will introduce a bill to allow the use of only one set of books for both city and county elections: thus avoiding great Inconvenience to the people und oftentimes emlxirrassment. Every voter In a town or city will be glad to reud that Senator Martin will try to devise, a means to. abate this great nuisance. Wake members should co-operate with him for Ral elBh voters are greatly annoyed and troubled, not only by separate books, but by different ward lines, so that a man who votes in the city election Sometimes has no idea where he will vote ill November after having voted In May, and he has to register both times at both places. The petty nui sance should lie abated. We had supposed that the voters of no other town ever were perplexed and annoyed as were those of Ashe vllle by complicated and frequent re quirement's of registration, but It ferns the annoyance Is a general thing. After one has voted for a few years In Ashevllle he can repeat the registration oath backward. "THE ONIiY RFMf )IY IN SIGHT." Commenting upon a recent para graph of The Gazette-News' the Stateavllle Lrndmark soys. Certainly It is clear that the found er did not Intend senators to be elect ed by the popular vote; and we may also believe that the founders did not anticipate that the time would ever come when legislatures could be bought by almost any man who had the money; when the senate would embrace In its membership so larre a representation of the wealth of the country that the government would he used to promote the Interest of the .lasses to the hurt of the masses The conditions having changed, it Is necessary to find a remedy. Whether the election of senator by the people trill lie an effective remedy may be piextidtied. but It is the only remedy la sight and It can be made effective. "No doubt may sections of the Wilmington-Charlotte- Salisbury - Moores-ville-Asheville highway." says the Charlotte Chronicle, "will be of the oiled-road, sand-clay construction. There are many miles that will not need to be Macadamized. The proper grading, the proper curvature of the road bed and the proper drainage by the roadside are the main things." And the proper care, with or without oil. Just a plain dirt road, kept up with the road drng, would not be a bad Idea, to start with. Tomorrow when you begin to write 1911 you will notice there are three figures of the same denomination In the date. It has been 23 years since this occurred In the past and very few of us will live to write 1998, which Is the next one and Is 88 years hence. Western North Carolina Is resolved to raise more corn than ever before. That Is a fact, and no mere pert paragraph. You can liegin to count the months, now, until the dear 10,000 summer girls flock to western North Carolina. Messrs. Green and Lange are re solved to complete the Concrete. At midnight, a new day, a new month, a new year, a new decade. More railroad facilities Is one Ashevllle's resolutions. of ROOSEVELT'S AFRICAN TRIP MAY NOW BE INVESTIGATED Ralncy of Illinois Starts the Move, inent Smithsonian Institute "a Trash Heap"? Washington. Dec. .11. "The Afri can hunting trip ar organized and carried out by the Smithsonian In stitute via Roosevelt," Is the subject of the latest proposed congressional Investigation. Thje sugfestlion was received here yesterday by Represeta tlve Rainey of Illinois, from a citizen of a Georgia town who referred to such an inquiry as "a public service" and to the Smithsonian as a "trash heap institution." Mr. Rainey Is a democrat who recently introduced a resolution to inquire Into the manner in which Mr. Roosevelt obtained his transportation and supplies on his trips about the country while he was president. Mr. Rainey purposes at the earliest opportunity to press this resolution, though it was referred to the rules committee, and promptlv pigeon-holed. The Georgian whose letter came yesterday declares than an extension of such an inquiry to include the way in which the Alrican hunt expedition expense as borne by the Smithsonian Institution "would show waste, ex travagance and squandering of public money." "This railroad traveling expenses come off the owners of the corpora tions, and they get enough to do be sides deadheading a Roosevelt," the latter added. The Smithsonian has never reported the cost of the expe dition to congress, but did submit a fctatement showing that 0663 skins and 2500 shoots of plants were obtained.

BOARD ALDERMEN The board of aldermen hod a rather dull session last night, there being little but routine business considered. Col. V. S. 1. ii.sk was before the board with a complaint as to making a sower connection on Poplar street. CoW Lusk, while he had not been no tified to make this connection, desired to state that the presence of a stream between the strict and his residence would make such a connection impos sible and tie did not wish to be taxed with a sewer assessment. Mrs. Lilly Eeatherstone hai! a similar complaint. The matter was referred to the sewer committee. , Alderman Young, for the water committee, brought up the question of a change of a hydrant in the denot section. Some while ago it became I necessary to cnange the hydrant from the Southern Hallway company's right of way and W. H. Westall con sented for it to be placed on his prop erty, but now another change became necessary sines Mr. Westall desires to build a warehouse on the lot. Mr. Young stated the understanding was that Mr. Westall was to pay for the expense of moving the hydrant but when the bill was presented he re spectfully declined. The board In structed tlw clerk to notify him that he would be held responsible. An extension' of the water main on Center street was granted, also a short extension on North street. The recommendation of the street committee that the city make the final settlement with the Atlantic Hithu lithlc company for work done on Panola street, between Mont ford and Cumberland avenues; on South r rencn mono avenue between Hart lett street and Southside avenue, and the recent work on Merrimon avenue, was adopted. In the matter of free water for the residence of Prof. E. P. Chllds at the Normal and Collegiate institute the Imard decided that his house came under the class of rectories and could not grant therequest. The following building permits were granted: T. F. Frazier, 8 -room residence; es timated cost $3000. V. M. Weaver, addition to the Mountain City Steam laundry: esti mated cost $2,100. RHEUMATISM RELIEVED IN HOURS. DR.

As It now stands most of the con sulfations are held in the Judges room which Is not at all times con venient. it has also been suggested that this room be used for the judge's room, and the present Judges room for the library but It Is not likely that this will be done.
