The Real Purpose of Pope's
Fat Frying
While not denying- that their party
Is levying on Federal and other offi
cials in Western North Carolina for
campaign boodle, the Republican pa
pers are beginning to resent the oft
repeated charge that it is "to pay th
poll tax of negroes."
, Accepting this statement as true in
every particular, one finds himself in
quiring: "For what purpose tnen. Is
the fat-frying of Pope and his like?"
Perhaps in the following we ma
find the solution to the problem:

man casting a vote
under the pre?nt
election law w ith
his poll tax paid.
County Record
(Dem.) of April

The Democratic
dailies over the
State seem to think
that the boodle be

Pope and others by
the sand bag pro

purpose of paying
negroes' poll tax so
that they can vote

The Model Young Man
From the rules prescribed in Cecil

to a scholarship we obtain his idea of
the model young man:
1. Literary and scholastic attain

the weak ; 30

two scholarships of an annual value of
41500 each, tenable for three years at
Oxford University, England.
A Little Leaven
A subscriber writing to the Citizen to
thank It for Its efforts to secure for the
country people good roads, better
schools, and proper mall facilities,
says:
"I know of nothing that wiU be a
greater Thelp to us in every way than
good mail facilities. As the city has all
possible conveniences in the way of
mail delivery and other methods of
communication, it seems to me it's
about time some thing was bein? done
by the statesmen we send to Washing
ton, for the remote and out-of-the-way
country sections. Without the aid of
good roads we cannot have gool mail
facilities, without good mall facilities
the cause of education cannot be ex
peoted to prosper as it otherwise would.
When will our people recognise these
things and demand good roads of their
legislators and good mails of their Con
gressmen? Once we get these, no power
on earth can keep out good schools and
good churches."
Well said, truly, and well within the
facts. A few men In a community with
such sentiments as these are worth
much to the people among whom they
live. They are the leaven that will fin
ally leaven the whole lump and make
Western North Carolina what the God
of Nature intended It should be at
once the richest, the most beautiful,
and most prosperous section of the
South.
The proposed Summer Art School
ought to attract a large number of
students and teachers to Asheville
during the months of June, July and
August. Mr. Worrall, the director, has
designed It especially for those who
are taking a vacation frota the school
room, and tt will give them an
opportunity to spend the heated
- term In the mountains at small
cost and In a most profitable way.
For a studio he has selected one
of the most beautiful spots In all this
country, and he has so planned his
school as to make it a delightful ar
tists' outing. It ought to be especially
attractive to art teachers in Southern
schools, who desire, while takinghetr
vacation, to also pursue their Jftrt
studies and associate with those engag
ed in the same sort of work.
The Shelby Aurora is certainly wast
ing no love on Mr. Crum packer and his
resolution to investigate Southern elec
tion methods. It calls him an "abomin
able political toad," a "venomous hu
man snake." and charges that he
"would pollute and poison the industri
al stream that Is now flowing so full
and free." Further It declares that toe
"would chain the wheels of progress to
his black Juggernaut and drag a happy
Industrious and prosperous people into
the turmoil and strife, that could bring
help to none and hart to all.' This lan
guage ought to be lurid enough to sat
isfy even Mr. Moody, who claims that
he never did like a Force bill, nohow.

Mark's Interest Explained
In accounting for the strenuous ef
forts of Senator Banna to obtain
leniency for his friend, Efetes G. Rath
bone, under a 10-year sentence for
complicity In the Cuban, postofflce
frauds, interested parties have dug up
the suppressed report of a special Ohio
State Senate committee appointed to
investigate the alleged bribery of Ohio
legislators to secure Hanna's election
to the United States Senate. In which
Major Rath bone was said to have taken
a promient part. Excerpts from the
committee's report are as follows:
L That on or about Jan. 9, 1898, an
attempt was made to bribe John C.
Otis, a member of the House of Rep
resentatives of the presnt General As
sembly of the State of Ohio, to vote for
Marcus A. Hanna for United States
Senator.
2. That Henry H. Boyce was the
principal offender in the commission
of that crime.
3. That Major E. O. Rath bone and
Major Charles Dick were agents of
Marcus A. Hanna, and procured, aided
and abetted Henry II. Boyce to commit
that crime.
4. That H. H. Hollenbeck aided
said Henry H. Boyce in committing
that crirae.
The report was adopted by the Ohio
State Senate, and notice of the action
served upon the United States Senate
at Washington. There action upon the
case was stifled by the committee on
privileges and elections, on the ground
that nobody came forward from Obio
to prosecute the matter.
Co-education just now seems to be
getting some rather hard knocks in the
Northwestern University at Chicago.
Only a week ago Its president told the
trustees co-education was a failure,
and backed his statement with proof.
Now comes Prof. Clark, one of its fac
ulty, and in course of a lecture to a
class, makes much the same charge
and adds: "I declare to you, young
people, there is altogether too much of
this yum-yum business in the halls.
The students of the Northwetern Uni
versity are altogether too sentimental.
They must stop this foolishness at
once.
The dispatches then go on to add this
interesting fact: "The young women
are especially angry. The young men
content themselves by smiling."

The Governor Says "No"
Charleston. S. C. April 8. After an
extended conference with President
Wagener and a committee of business
men of the city. Governor McSweenev
announced at midnight last night that
Inewould not allow the Jeffrles-Fiti-ylmreons

time the matter had been brought to

was jvery pointed, he could not take
ay other course. He added that he
would call out the militia if necessary
to prevent the contest. The effort to
secure the mill Is now ended, as Mr.

"GOOD AFTERNOON, MAY." WHO IS SPEAKINO?
SOLUTION TO SATURDA

5 General Federation 2
S of Women's Clubs 2
Club women who are expecting to at
tend the sixth biennial meeting of the
General Federation of Woman's-Clubs,
held In Los Angeles the first week in
May, are particularly interested in the
fact that the railroads east of
Chicago have unanimously determined
to give a round trip rate from any given
point for a one-way fare; the round
trip rat-- between Chicago and Los An
geles 1, a each transcontinental line has
been fixed at $50. Therefore the exact
amount of railroad fare can at this
early date easily be estimated.
The time limit on these round-trip
tickets two months will give visitors
an opportunity for some sight-seeing'
after the biennial meetings Are -ver,
and one delightful excursion during bi
ennial week Is already arranged.
This will be given May 7, complimen
tary to all officers," delegates and the
program committee. This outing, re
quiring only the greater part of one
day, will nevertheless afford a unique
opportunity for a comprehensive
glimpse of this southern country and a
view of the Pacific.
The objective points will be Long
Beach and the deep-sea harbor at San
Pedro. The trip will be made over the
San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake
railroad, in special coaches, and an in
teresting expanse of country skirted
by rolling green hills, with rugged
mountains disappearing at the north
ward as the approach to the sea is made

Fertile lands, acres of fruit and vege
table ranches, carefully cultivated by
the Chinese, whose quaint cabins show
picturesquely here and there, country
home, villages, groves and game pre
serves are seen en route.
The first stop will be "rhade at a
charming hamlet, where, shaded by
rows of stately eucalyptus trees and
graceful peppers.stands a model institu
tion which provides a home for Indi
gent old men. Acres of well-kept or
ange groves surround the institution,
and here the eastern visitors will be
hospitably entertained.
At Long Beach, which Is a flourishing
seacoast town and summer resort, the
blue Pacific Is seen In all its grandeur,
and from there to San Pedor, a distance
of eight miles, the Journey is made
along shore, where the billowy white
breakers roll in only a few hundred
feet from the rails.
At Leng Beach there will be a bar-
Decue, and a Spanish dinner will be
served in the great dancin
naviii,
The steam yacht Elliot has been nlac
ed at the disposal of the guests and
private and public conveyances will
also be at hand for driving about the
city and over the hard beach, which
stretches for 20 miles along a curving
shore line, and in its beauty and as a
hard road-bed Is often compared to the
famous Fernandino beach of Florida.
After luncheon the visitors will con
tinue their journey. Stopping at Ter
minal island, Another charming sea
coast resort, and from there visit San
Pedro and the great breakwater.
There are many other points of inter
est the traveler may take within a day
or a half day's journey from Los Ange
les. A trip to Echo mountain and Alpine
tavern may be made by train or elec
tric cars through the beautiful resi
dence city of Pasadena as far as its
picturesque suburb of Altadena, where
the mountain electric railway begins,
which leads up by easy grade 2200 feet
above sea level. Here at Rubio canyon,
where wonderful natural scenery is
found, the traveler reaches the great
cable Incline which has no counterpart
in the world. At the head of this can
yon, which is spanned by bridges and
is Intensely wooded with mountain ma
hogany, lilac, bay, live oak, fern. and
trailing vines, is the foot of the great
incline which is 3000 feet in length and
makes a direct ascent of 1300 feet. The
grade la actually from 4S to 62 per cent.
Cars are attached to an endless cable
and ascend and descend automatically,
passing each other like white heaven
ascending chariots, as they noiselessly
glide upwards.
From Echo mountain one gazes en
raptured upon the mesa 3000 feet below,
lying like a velvety green cushion at
the base Of the Sierra Madre mount- j
alns. Beyond are park-like ranches,.!
vineyaras, orange groves, spires and
roof tops of village and city, winding
gorges, the gray ribbon of the Arroyo
Seco: and far beyond shows the river
sheen of the Pacific. A few hundred
feet above Echo mountain is the great
observatory with its famous telescope;
here also is the wonderful searchlight
which was brought from the world's
fair, -Chicago, which each evening
weeps all heaven and earth within its
reach with effulgent rays. Higher still
lies Alpine tavern and Mt. Lowe.
Within a half day's Journey from
Los Angeles, or even less, two particu

Pointers for Greensboro
From the Charlotte Observer
The Asheville Cltisen, remarking
iipon the choice of Greensboro as the
place for the Democratic Statte conven
tion, observes that "with, its selection
as the convention city a great respon
sibility devolves upon Greensboro in
the matter ttf providing accommoda
tions and entertaining the delegates
and visitors. Therein, largely, will be
demonstrated the wisdom or folly of
the committee in making the change."
And we -e occasion to enlarge upon
this idea rtith the observation that at
no poi. t will Greensboro bo more tax
ed than : . Its telegraphic facilities.
We do.not k iff 'how: it la at present,
but until rather recently the telegraph
office and the chickens there went out
of business about the same hour in the
evening. We have no purpose to in
terfere with the habits of poultry, but
the telegraph people will have to get
out of that if the convention holds a
night session, as it generally does. The
morning papers will, as usual, want
the last word up to the press hour.
Chinese Exclusion Act
Washlngton, April 8. The House
yesterday passed the Chinese exclu
sion bill after incorporating in it sev
eral amendments which increased the
drastic character of the measure. The
principal ones exclude all Chinese e-f
mixed blood and prohibit the employ
ment of Chinese Bailors oft American,
ships. As passed, the bill practically
1 re-enacts all the existing - exclusion
tiffs and incorporates with" them the
existing treaty regulations.. It extends
these exclusion laws to the Philippines
and other possessions of the - United
States and forbids Chinese laborers in
our colonial possessions coming- into
this country. The Philippine commis
sion is directed to adopt proper meas
ures for the enforcement of the pro
visions of the bill in the Philippines. ,
In the Senate Mr. Sommons of North
j Carolina explained briefly why hfe
should support the Chinese exclusion
bill, although he frankly said he would
do so with some reluctance.
