THE ASHBVTLLE DAILY CITIZEN Tuesilav Evening, October 3, 1893. ASHEVILLEJDAILY CITIZEN TBI Daily Citizkn, Drmocratlc, Is published CTcry Afternoon (except Sunday) at tne fol lowing rate mtrictlr cash: ONI YBU S6.00 Six Months 3.00 Thsbb Months 1.6U Onb Month SO OaiWut is TUESDAY, OCTOBER 3. 1893. The day it is generally known that negotiations have been favorably closed with the United Industrial Com pany for the establishment of their fac tories up the Swannanoa there will be a better feeling in all business circles in Asheville. There will be wot k for more men than for months before, and lewer appeals for help this winter than last if the Company frets to work as speedily as Mr. Maxwell seems to wish to. This prize must be secured. Louisville Home and Farm says: "Some of the finest apples grown in country are produced in New Mexico. Last year we sa jv them put tip there Bach one was selected by hand, wrapped in paper, and packed in clean bushel boxes. In this shape the growers sold them at six cents per pound." By how many thousand dollars would Western North Carolina be benefitted if its choicest apples were treated in this way, instead of bringing them into mar ket wrapped in old bedquiltsand straw ? Refekkinu to Whitelaw Keid in con nection with his nomination to tic French mission and that of Mr. Van Alen to Italy, the New York World says of the former that "he had a claim wholly above any money consideration. He was the leading journalist of his party and bad rendered the Republican cause distinguished service." That dis tinguished service could not have been Mr. Reid's refusal, at the solicitation of Mr. Blaine's campaign managers in 188, to give employment only to trade's union printers. At least 3,000 votes were turned to the Democratic candidate by the refusal and Mr. Blaine was de feated. We extend to certain towns east of the mountains, in North Carolina, assurances of our distinguished consideration. If appears fram a statement made at the citizens' meeting Saturdav that they have over-reached themselves and by their abuse of Asheville accomplished precisely what they did not wish to send the projectors of the United Indus trial Company to this City to see if everything here was as ill-suited to man ufacturing as the eastern men said was. Had the latter contented them selves in doing the fair thing by Asheville it is possible that Mr. Maxwell would not have visited this City at all; but the y did the unfair thing and did it in a spirit that betrayed them. Vc arc obliged to them. A. HLANDKR. A New York weekly publication of un savory repute. Town Topics, prints a letter, said to be from this part of North Carolina, containing the following: "There can be no denial of tbe fact that the Vanderbilt purchases here are misunderstood and mistrusted. There is no inc onsiderable a mount of talk about a 'kingdom' or an 'empire' that the Van- derbuts propose to found on the estate; and, idle as is such talk, you can well understand what an effect it will have, and is having, on the morose but impress sible natives. They are the best hearted but the most lawless people I have ever met; Christianity and moonsluning are ouite compatible in their code ot mora Is. and selling land at exborbitant prices a northerner aad then. )t Iiook or crook driving him away from it, or equally so ... I am forced to admit that in the mountains the feeling against George Vanderbilt is very bitter, and should they take it into their ignorant heads that he has other ultimate designs than the mere building ot a summer home as Fome even no w claim to believe he will get into trouble." We doubt vcrv much if there is a word of truth in this extract. Mr. Vander- bilt's purchases are not misunderstood, though perhaps his intentions some times are, as are those of all of us. But that he will "get into trouble" about them is inconceiveable, and that there is a "bitter feeling" against a man who buys land at "exhorbitant prices" is silly, It the writer ot the letter town topics quotes from is in this neighborhood we invite him to attempt to make his state ment good. Some brilliant novelist in Knoville, too, has been adding to his reputation by concocting a telegram to the Cincin nati Enquirer, saying: "Many of the inhabitants in Western North Carolina are in a state ot agita tion akin to lawlessness. It is occas ioned by the recent and numerous land purchases of Eastern capitalists in and around Asheville "Recently there has been a general rush for Western North Carolina, and many thousand acres of mountain and meadow land have been bought. The reason given for these extensive purchases is that the new owners want the land for the timber on it. The small farmers and hunters who did not want to sell have been forced out bv a process akin to warlike fortifi cation. Tbey either had to peacefully surrender or take the punishment that was needed to get rid ot them. "Foreign capital now controls enough land in Western North Carolina to make it a serious question to the rest of the people in the State, whether the new possessors will not try to form a new state or not." How eventsdocro wd to be sure! From "warlike fortifications" to a state of agitation, to a state of lawlessness and to a new state to be carved out of West ern North Carolina is but a step or two for tbe prodigious strides, this giant of romancers makes. Tbe truth abides neither with tbe Town Topics letter writer, nor with the dweller in Knoxville. Tbey should be suppressed. till Has HI stairt On. Prom the Marion Record. Tbe report that the editor was knocked down this week and his sbirt torn oft" of him is absolutely and un qnalifiedly false. Tbe Hutchinson fabri cation has not a scintilla of truth in it. JUST IN NORTH CAROLINA. Clinton Democrat : Mrs. H. K. Ben nett has a hen 32 years old that has made the annual record of raising three broods of chickens a. year. Greensboro Record : The many friends of Hon. L. Schenck arc glad to see bim on the streets again, the first time in three months. He had a severe illness, but is now on the road to re covery. Rockingham' Rocket: In tbe lowei end of Richmond anil in Robeson coun ties the mosquitoes are said to be so nu merous that they nctually drive the cot ton pickers from tbe fields late in the af ternoons. Brevard Hustler: Judge Arinficld expressed deep regret for having failed to reach his courts in Havwood and Jackson, and hopes during the interval between Macon and the next court, to hold extra sessions in these counties free of charge, provided the Governor will so order, and thereby rid the jails of their lumates. Charlotte News : Iu many portions of the country small pox has broken out and in some ot tnose sections tbe dis ease threaten to become an euidemic. Never, in anv season of the history of this country lias there been so much traveling inside ot its borders, and, there fore, neyer were there such opportuni ties lor spreading; tbe disease. The Knoxville Tribuncsays: It is cur rently reporteil that the control of the famous magnetic iron mine at Cranberry, N. C, has passed into the hands of the Bessemer syndicate, which has recently acquired ownership of all the great iron mines in the Lake Suiierior region. The syndicate is said to b composed of Flagler, Payne and other magnates of standard Oil laiue. Hard Lack. Pros Truth. Mrs. Lakeside This financial panic is awful. Mrs. Wabash Yes; I am really afraid I shall . not be able to afford -a divorce this year. POT I'AI.I.U KGTTLE ULKK, And I lie lot Had Been Black These Mail'' Years. Communication in New York Sun. Coming now to the only real point of attack, Yan Alcu's liberal contribution to the gcueral campaign fund of the Dem ocratic party in tbe late election, the charge that it was made in pursuance of a bargain lor van Alen s appointment has been conclusively disproved by the emphatic statements of Mr. Whitney and himself, and there only lemainsthe politico-moral question whether such a contribution should prevent his appoint ment. On that score the strictures of the Re publican press are but an illustration of the old adage of the pot calling the kettle black. Have they forgotten that Edwards Pierrepont deserted the Democratic party, subscribed $20,000 toward the election of Grant, and was rewarded with the mission to England ? Perhaps they may remember the large amount contributed by "Clerical Error" Stoughtoti, who tor that service, as well as for palliating; Eliza Pinkston's per jury in the Louisiana business in INTO, received the Kussiaii mission. Will Mr. Whitelaw Rcid or Mr. Levi P. Morton conscientiously inform the public the amount of their respective contributions to the campaign fund of their party in the Presidential elections before they received their appointments as minister to I- ranee A Nl'JlllAV COXVKNTION. It Will be Hdd at PUlHburit No yeinber 14-16. From the Christian Statesman. Believing that this is a most opportune time to gather up the results of these many months of earnest discussion, and to attempt to crystalizc them into a clearer and firmer legal basis for Sabbath protection, the friends of the Sabbath join in a full and beartv invitation to all who are interested in the question to come to a National convention to be held in Allegheny City Nnwrnlxi 1, 15 and 16. Ad siiiee the Sabbath is only one 01 the great many moral questions such as marriage and divorce, the school question, the labor question, immigra tion, the drin k traffic and such like, the National Reform Association that seeks to compass all these and similar ques tions and place them all upon a more undeniably lejjal basis, has authorized this convention. The aim is to have it, its far as possi ble, a delegated convention. And the invitation is maile to all Christian asso ciations, colleges, religious neighbor hoods, united congregations, where it is practicable, and single ones where it is not; in short, all who desire to confirm the Sabbath discussion as far as it has gone, and press it to greater attain ments, are cordially invited to takesteps in good season to have a delegation appointed to this convention. Tile jKiacUt On Ivl las. From the Charlotte News. There never was a fight in this part of the political field that seemed to be fur ther out of place and away from true patriotism than the one just now being made in the Senate atrainst Hon. Koue Elias, the newly appointed Collector of internal Kevenue tor this district. Nearly all of the newspapers have had something to say in regard to the mat ter, and, almost without exception, they agree that the 6gbt is unnecessary and wrong. As Viewed From the Cradle.

The lynchine of negroes in the South has prompted the Forum to secure for its October number an explanation of tne attitude ot the Southern whites. Bishop Atticus G. Havcood and Maior Chas. H. Smith ("Bill Arp") unite in protesting tnat the (rightful crimes of negroes need neculiarly swift punish ment. The liisnop. however, thinks these crimes would diminish if tbe ne groes were better educated, while "Bill Arp tninka tne negroes have already not only too much education, but too much liberty. nrs a. 1 1 i 1 SIQN OF DANGER. when pimples, blotches and erup tions appear on the skin, no matter how light.

The Market BKoastsss Uueallon Editor The Citizen: After reading your paper yesterday evening, I con cluded to visit the market and see how it looked after so many hucksters had retired. I think our Board of Aldermen ought to give this matter another serious thought. Our Hoard should say to those hucksters to return, and add that if they were not able to pav rent they could have the stalls rent free to the first of January. I think the Board did wrong at last mcetinir to give all persons the liberty of scl ing; oysters through the city. Persons keeping a restaurant or hotel ought to haye that privilege, but no others. If our Aldermen want to build up a first class market house, they must do everything in their power to sustain the stall renters the first few months. I noticed one thing in the market a few days ago that ought not be permitted persons keeping; vegetables and fish for sale on the same counter. If any of our Hoard when in Raleigh will visit the mar kct house tbey will find that the fish are sold only in the rear of the market house. Observer. CSreat Ezpectallous.
