BATS YOU THOUORT OP IT ? at xl Dollars Will Get It For a Year, and If Yon Lire in Asheville It Will Be Delivered at Your Door Bvery Evening-. FRIDAY. MARCH 31. 1893. Thk Citizen's Impression is that S. Otbo Wilson got off too easily; but cer tainly Solicitor Pou Rave bim a beauti ful dressing down. Thkeb hundred and seventy-five thous and immigrants landed in New York last year, ui mis numDer only J5V were beaded for North Carolina. ws presume tne Gazette intended to add tbe words "From the Asheville Cixizbn" to the list of presidential ap pointments which it this morning copied from The Citizen of yesterday. Democrats everywhere will be de lighted with.! be nomination of Thomas F. Bayard to be Ambassador to Great Britain, and the entire country will be satis6cd that the United States will be worthily represented at the Court of St. James by tbe eminent Delaware states man. I he Citizen aobserves that our State motto continues to be quoted with blinders on that is to say, as though it was not meant to be understood by the common people. It means simply, "To be. rather than to seem to be," and why the United States language is not good enough to express that idea will con tinue to be the wonder of people who cannot think a good sentiment can be bettered by expressing it in a dead tongue. J. A. HARRELL,,proprietor of the cheap- jonn non-union, nttn-class printshop at Weldon, N. C, writes The Citizen say- iK i oar. u mere is "anything- in appear ances, both from President and others, m -1, . . , ... . a win certainly get tne appointment, as public printer of the United States. The Citizen does not imagine for one mo- i mac t-resiaent Cleveland has even thought of appointing Harrell, as the papers state that Harrell called on the President. I hh latest pardon granted bv Gov. Carr apparently illustrates tbe tendency to shorten the terms of criminals whether new evidence is discovered or not. In the present case, that of Lacy Sears, it is stated that he was a good inai, that tbe man be killed was a bad man, and that anyway the killing was done in self defense. What is there new in this to suggest a pardon ? AH those facts, the relative goodness and badness of the killed and the slayer, and whether the killing was provoked, were known at tbe time of the trial, and it was then adjudged that fifteen years' imprisonment was tbe proper punishment. Why, then. should the man not have served the full term ? Col. Martin Will CSet Tberc. Washing-ton Cor. New York Sun. Senator Vance of North Carolina was among the early callers Tuesday morn ing. He had with him Col. Martin of Asheville, N. C, and Mr. Horrell of the State of Washington. "Here are two young gentlemen, Mr. President, " said Senator Vance, "who desire to go to Japan in the capacity of tonsui. i ney are applicants tor tbe same position. They are both deserving young men, and you may take your cnoice. a ne t-resiaent smuea at tne unique way in wnicn tne senator from North Carolina attempted to place the respon- sioutty ot making a selection between tbe rival candidates, and adroitly re ferred tnem to Secretary of State. We are ImproyloK. Prom tbe Washing-ton Post. oo far as annmng in W ashington is concerned, the habit has been tapidly declining for years. There is little in temperance among public officials, and less than ever before among the em ployes ot tne government, it is rare among members oi Congress and among reputable citizen J generally. It is no more prevalent among Southern Con gressmen than it is among the Northern, nor1 among Western Congressmen than tne tasters, nor among visitors from one direction more than another. In ceasing to be a national vice drunkenness bas ceased to be a sectional vice. , lUibor fT-tarsf Editob The Citizen: In tbe interest of Asheville I would like to say that "! think it would be a. mistake to locate many factories even on the outer limits of the city, especially if they are obliged to use soft coal for power. I believe that within five miles of the city on the French Broad river, there is water power, wbicb can be made available for all the factories that are likely to come this way. Asheville has established a reputation as a health resort and it sbould not throw it away. A suberb at the seat of water power, would trade almost exclu sively with Asheville. I think tbe general toneof addresses at the mass-meeting the other evening was not encouraging. From my point of view. Asheville bas a brilliant future, if we continue as we have begun. We have made a good start on tbe three essen tials for a city: Good water, good streets ana. last out not least, good schools. People and money will come in time. a ne general arawoacic now is tbe sur plus of unskilled labor. We must do some thing to train labor, first in tbe public scnoois; second, in industrial schools. and, last, in the factory. To attract skilled labor from other parts ot the countrv, not only good wages must be offered, but good schools for their children. We need a high school nere, dui i am a tram as long as it is garded as a charitable institution sball not have it. Xbe old maxim that "knowledge is power" is iust as true as ever, and this is the kind of power that O. T. i of GoUta baa ben education -Julius Steven) principal boro'sV colored pablic school, appointed saperinteadeat of for Liberia. The Railway commission bias prepared! a general order regulating? tbe; handling of baggage by rail wavs. in accordance with- authority given it by tbe last Lear islature. Shelbv Aurora: Four miles south of Morganton and on the Shelby-Burke road, Bartow Brittain hit with a rock bis older and drunk brother, Julius Brit tain. The rock (or pistol, as claimed by two out of five witnesses) fractured tbe skull. Julius died Friday night. High Point Enterprise: Forsyth claims the bonor of baring a colored man (Frank Mathes) who places his age at 109 years. The Wilkesboro Chronicle has it that there is an ' old colored wo man in Edwards township that was lOS years old last November. Tbe record of her age is tbe old family Bible of her master. Her name is Juda Martin. Henderson ville Times: Mr. W. A. Smith has purchased tbe very desirable property on Main street known as the Mrs. A. L. Williams house and lot. the consideration being $5,SOO. It is Mr. Smith's intention to occupv the property as a residence. XVI rs. Williams purchased, in the trade, the bouse and lot on Washington street belonging to Mr. Smith, it being rated at 92. BOO. is needed here. Extracts From "Oood Roads cDiTOR i he citizen: i know your space is valuable, but hope you can spare enough for a few extracts from the Feb ruarv numDer oi uooa Koaas that our people may see its interesting character, and be prepared to accept and read it. so soon as e can provide it for tbem. Oov Mower says. "The ereat obsta cle to road improvement has lieen the continuance ot the antiquated workine system, wnereoy highways are worked out bv day labor. I know nobodv who now seriously defends this system. The results are just a little better than no improvement at all. Tbe coats is crreat enough. a.- pay for substantial stone raaas. Senator Kirhardson, who has intro duced a road bill in tbe State of New York, savs ot it : l his bill is absolutely in the interest of the State, because the roads for which it provides will be built entirelv outside of the City, and will ive to the farmer a gold dollar s wortb ol good roads for t-n cents, because tbe farming lands pay only ten per cent, of the taxes." f his tully applies to Buncombecount v because the Citv of Asheville pays six sevenths of tne whole county tax. J "Further I find that by careful computation that the proportion of tbe tax. which a bun- area acre larm assessed, at $4U per acre, wouin pay under the bill, would would not exceed fifty cents. This does not equal the amount lost in a sincrle aay in wear ana tear ol borses and wagons in haulinif the farmers, produce rer ice oaa roaas. I . H . fa.tton.

From a Nashrlllr, Teun , Telegram. "The last of them is gone." oucn is tne case. i bis veteran war rior and teacher is the last of that gal axy of soldiers who beaded the Southern armies, whose vanquishment tells the mournfully brilliant history of the "lost cause." Like Lee. the Tohnstons. Braecr Cooper and Beauregard, Kirbv Smith has crossed the river and joined his com rades in their eternal rest. He was the junior of seven full generals of the Con federacy, and the last to receive that merited promotion. Tbe martial genius of Kirbv Smith startled the world at the first Manassas when, witb l.TOO men. bv a darin? and skillful flank movement, he turned the tide of battle, and wrested almost cer tain victorv from the overwhelming leg ions oi uacuowell, who were slowlv and surely crushing the shattered ranks of Ueaureeard and loe lohnston. The last battle of the war was foueht bv Kirbv oraun a men, ana tne southern cross floated tnu tnchan tl v as thedeelinino- inn ciosea tne strupgie. When the contest was over he dnflrH the panoply of war. and took ud the garb of the professor. In this capacity nc provea nimseit as srreat as battle field. Before Prohlblllon From the Sbelby Aurora.
