"THE tlTUEN'S" CHOICK
The fight for the control of the city
uovcrumentjs now on. Two tickets are
in the field; whether there will be .-i third
does not as yet appear, but lemocrats,
at all events, will choose between the
two already before them
Readers ol The Citizen know that it
is greatlv to our regret that there could
not have been a comp-omise by which
there would have been no division of the
Democrats of Asheville on so plain an
issue as a reform in our municipal affairs;
that is to sav for that is all it means
a richt-about change from the kind of
management we have had during the
past two years. The present set of city
officials, the majority of them. hae not
given us a careful, prudent, conscientious
administration, and thev must step
to one side.
For whom shall they make room ? for
the ticket nominated at the citizens'
meetinir. or for that nominated in the
primary Saturday ?
For The Citizen's part the choice is
soon made. It proposes that reform
shall be undertaken and carried to a sue
ce9sful conclusion by the oiyanized Uem
ocracy as headed by Alderman Starues
for mayor.
THEY ARKMAKINU A RECORD
Democrats will do well to weijjh these
words from the Charlotte Observer on
the political situation here :
"Manv of the best citizens and best
Democrats of the town are in the move
ment, as candidates and supporters of
the ticket, opening delving the party
organization. 1 here is no room to
doubt that the independent movement
means well bv the citv and the Demo
crats in it do not seem to rtalize, as we
read The Citizen, that thev are com
mitting a partv discipline. Nevertheless
however good their present intentions
are thev will find that thev will never he
able to outlive the record thev are now
making. Thev mav succeed in defeatinK
the organization but thev will live to see
the day when its power will be invoked
to defeat some ot them. .o man is big
enough to 'buck' agains. his partv, and
he who in is any decree reyardful of bis
standing in it, present or prospective
will have a care about warring upon its
organization.
In other words, it was the plain duty
of the Democrats who have joined in the
so-called citizens' movement to 6ght
out their cause in the primary. It was
open to them; they could perhaps have
won there, anditwas their duty and privi
lege to undertake, within the party
organization, the reform they wanted
to secure.
THOSE "TF'8."
The south side of Patton avenue be-
tween the Federal buildine and Bailey
street is strewn with earth, brickbats
and sand. It has not been cleaned since
the brick oavement was laid. tl
The above has appeared dailv in the
Asheville Citizen tor more than a week
past. It indicates that the Asbeville
municipal authorities are hard of liear-
inr and blind of seeing. Tub Citizen
however, acts on the principle that
"keeping everlastingly at it brings sue-
cess." Franklin Press.
Not one ot the "tf" items which The
Citizen has from time to time printed
for several days has failed of its mission
The publication ot a complaint once
hardly attracts the necessarv attention
especially where the thine complained of
is ol time honored standing, having; be
come a feature of the landscape possibly
But when the complaining item is re
peated daily its force is soon felt. Per
sons speak of it one to another, and if it
is an individual who is to blame he soon
finds that everybody seems to know
that The Citizen is referring to him
Presently the pressure becomes too fjreat
and the relief comes speedily. In the
case above referred to we believe the
item appeared dailj for about a week
Then the street was cleaned and the
complaint disappeared much to the
relief doubtless of those whose business
it was to see that the work was done.

NEWS IN OUR OWN STATE.
That primarv
seems to be about
in the condit ion ot
the man who fell
through his cellar
buttonhole and dia
located his neck. The
point is now made that
the primary system
was abolished by the
county convention and
that, therefore, this
primary was out of or
der somewhat. I re
member distinctly that
the system was abol
ished, being in the con
vention hall at the
time. The motion to
abolish was made. 1 believe, but will not
be positive, bv K. P. Walker, a member
of the Biltmore delegation. Whether
i his action of the county Pemocrats can
be considered as applying to city affairs.
I can't sav. but it seems wnat is gooo.
for countv would be good for twn. I
called the matter to the attention ot a
nvmber of the executive committee be
fore the primarv was called, but was in
formed that the rule could not affect the
general usage in the city in the least.
Mclennan McDowell, who is on trie
executive committee, protested against
a primarv, but was outvoted.
1 never saw anything to equal Satur
day's primary. There was compara
tively no interest taken in it in ttict.
most of the people on the street acted as
f they had never bothered their head
about a primary. I don't know how to
diagnose the c;ise. hardlv. It may be
that 600 or 80O Democratic voters
staved awav because they thought it titi-
necessarv to bother with voting as there
was only one ticket in the held. Agrtiti.
it mav be that 600 or 800 who staved
away want nothing to do with the pri
mary, but propose to vote the independ
ent ticket next Monday. However that
may be, it seems a pitv that the primary
could not have been recalled before it
was too late before the regular Democ
racy had shown its hand to the inde
pendents. Still, things may come out all
right yet.
I want to vote for the democratic
party nominees, but how am 1 to know
who the nominees are? Two years ago
the Democrats cast over t ,00 votes in
the primarv. Saturday there were some
410 cast. I suppose Mr. Starncs will be
considered the choice, although the
who did not vote mav want some other
cand idate.
If the Hon. II. A. Oudger is elected an
Alderman there will be a little more
trouble for the newspapers, for then
when the aldermanic meetings are re
ported and the name of Alderman
Gudger is printed the initials will have
to be used too, because there will be two
Gudgers m the Board.
Last year Alderman Baird voted the
Prohibition ticket, which he had a perfect
right to do. Saturday he voted straight
Democratic. Will the "Pro's" read the
Doctor out of the partv for switching to
one side a little :
1 he executive committee would no
doubt be surprised to learn the name of
one g'-ntlemnn in particular who did not
go into the primary, aud whose name I
could give.
1 HE publication or such rot as ap
peared in the advertising space taken by
the "Reformers" in Saturday's Citizen
will undoubtedly do infinitely more dam
age to their cause in a minute than they
can repair in a week.
A word that is used as often as "inuni
cipal" is now ought to be pronounced
properly. It was mispronounced a num
ber of times at the "Reformers" meeting
and I was deeply pained to detect Ad
visor Gwyn, the scholar of the Joint
Board, as one ot those wno mispro
nounced it. The most usual form in the
meeting was "municipal." Now, "my
good friend Webster," as Capt. Patton
used to love to say, gives "mujcpal" as
the pronounciation and those who do
not use it this wav will take due notice
thereof.
It was lucky tor Alderman Waddell
that the street overseer stopped the
Merrimon avenue paving just forninst
the south corner of his lot. In this wav
Mr. Waddell gets the good of the paving
without ha ving to pa v anything there
for.
Ir the candidates fur mayor don t
soon come to the rescue in this poetry
contest, I'm going to throw u; th
sponge. I am doing .nil I can to keei
the crowd from thinking the candidates
can't write poetry, ijiit good nature

Starnes is allowed eiuht lints toda

After a. lotiR and varied experience in the umt of Mineral Waters from many tourreH,
both foreign and domestic, I nm fully perauaded that the Harris I,ithit Water posscNtes
errieacy in the treatment of afflctions of the Kidney and bladder unequalled by any other
Water of which have I made trial.
This opinion ( haBtd upon observation of its effect upon m v patients for the past
three years, during which time I have prescribed it freely and almost uniformly with bene
fit in tne medical mat die above mentioned.
When failure 1 o relieve has occurred. I have imputed it to insufficient use of the
Water, tor my experience teachers mc, that from one to two quarts daily should be taken
from two to four weeks, to secure its full remedial effects.
