defeat? If these questions are met
in an honest, manly fashion, I be
lieve it will be productive of the best
kind of Democratic harmony.
"My days of political activity
are past, (Cries of no, no),
and I shall not hereafter assume
to participate in party counsels. I
am absolutely content with retire
ment ; but I still have one burning,
anxious political aspiration. I want
to see before I die the restoration to
perfect health and supremacy of that
Democracy whose mission it is to
bless the people a Democracy true
to itself, untempted by clamor, un
moved by the gusts of popular pas
sion and uncorrupted by offers of
strange alliance the Democracy of
patriotism, the Democracy of safety,
the Democracy that deserves and
wins success."

FROM ASHEVILLE TO FRISCO.
Asheville, N. C, June 20. The
Asheville & Rutherfordton railway
will be built, and active work on the
proposed line will begin at once. The
road will be built by George T.
Canis of New York. The contract
was signed today. A corps of en
gineers and workingmen are in read
iness to commence operations. Work
on the proposed line will begin at
the Rutherfordton end. The eontract
gives Mr. Canis about four years in
which to complete the road. The
line, however, will be completed in
perhaps just half this time. The lo
cation of the line has not been de
termined. The road will run via
Fairview and will enter Asheville
frem the southern part of the city.
' 'The building of this road means,' '
said one of the parties directly inter
ested in the movement, "that San
Francisco and all principal points on
the Pacific coast, as well as to prin
cipal cities on the Atlantic, may be
reached from Asheville over, this
line without change of cars."
