"I believe the third party will sweep every State in the South in 1892. The old bosses down there have tried to bulldoze and force the people to take their democratic medicine, but without result. Within! the last six months I ould have had any office within the gift ot the democratic party, but I would not sell my principles for pottage." Mr. Polk utjtered these words with feeling, and declared eternal warfare on both the old parties.

Prospects are bright for the building of a1 railroad from Erwin,Tenn.,to New port; Tenn., a distance of fifty-five miles. Chhiof Engineer Bowie has the follow ing ;to say in regard to the matter: "burveys are nearly completed for the railroad from Erwin, Tenn., via Embree ville to Newport, Tenn., fifty-five miles, connecting the Charleston, Cincinnati andj Chicago railroad and the Western Notth Carolina -railroad'. The route is don the Nolachucky valley, along the Unaka mountains, paralleling the iron belt! of Eas4 Tennessee. The work will be moderately heavy with light grades and curves.- There will be two bridges of 400 feet and 600 feet. Nearly all of the right of way haj been obtained and abour$150,000 in town and county bonds secured.! The principal buisiness of the road will be in iron, timber and agricul tural produce. Con tracts for construc tion will be let about November 1. A. S. Johnson is president." j j This latter road is or much importance to Asheville, as Erwin is on the proposed road from Asheville to Bristol, to be voted on in Asheville, Beems Creek, Flat Creek and Ivy townships, this county, on the 17th of October. At' this point also rtill cross the Three C's, or Charles-, ton, Cincinnati and Chicago road. The section just norjh of us, between Ashe ville and Bristol, will soon be a net-work of important roads; and the road from Asheville to Bristol must be built. It would cross and connect with five or six lines, or more, j I i ; . is the added novelty of having the pro prietor go around and perfonally urge aruests to eat more. Then, too, those taking the mountain railroad from Ashe ville to Spartaub- rg would enjoy the fun of 'riding down hill' on a railroad." j And in coming to Asheville from any direction, North, South, East or West, they would enjoy the grandest see nery in the States; would see one of the most attractive, progressive cities in the South, and meet with & reception not surpassed for hospitality anywhere, and enjoy hotel accommodations rarely equalled.
