North Ca.roHna. r 11 E IE! Prospects Brighter than Ever Before COUNTY COMMISSIONERS A GREE TO BUILD THREE IRON BRIDGES TO COST $12,000.00 The City May Build Sewer Under Lake. Outside Capitalists Here Enthusiastic Meetings. The three meetings held at the court house on Tuesday all meant the same thing THE LAKE. First there was the mass meeting in. the court room, where a fair sized crowd was present. Some of the property owners present made liberal reduction in the prices pre vlously asked (or their lands, and some earnest 8 beeches were made. Those present were deeply in earnest, and If the balance of the property owners are Inclined to cut their prices somewhat, the lake will undoubtedly be , built this Spring. m . , Then came the meeting of the town ship supervisors, the first meeting un der the new road law. P. P. Patton, the general supervisor, will organize tbe different township boards immedi ately, when they will have the chain gang at their disposal. It is proposed to work the gang in making nils and ap praches for the three new county bridges. ' Then came the most important meet ing"of all. The county: commissioners meeting was called to order at 2.30. Shortly after that time j the room was crowded to suffocation and the corri der outside was full of men. The rer re9entative men of the twn and county were present and not a voice was raised against the petition before the commls slonere.. The petition in effect, was, that the board of commissioners build three bridges at an approximate cost of fl2,0C0. ard allow the chain gang to HARDWARE HMlhi 5M& (Goodls Ruberoid Roofing a high grade composition roofing with lo yfear guareLntee, at less cost tKan tny otKer.

LOAD "IT HE CLARICE Hardware (pomp any Inpitporated. work on making fills and appraches for the iron bridges proposed.: Speeches in favor of the commissioners" taking fav orable action on the petition were made by W. A. Smith, A. Cannon, Sheriff Rhodes, Capt. Toms and many others. Chaa, French Toms and Judge O. V; F. Blyihe, the attorneys of the board, made a hit by advising that honorable body to take. favorable action on. the petition. It is doubtful if a more en thuslastic, or better attended "meeting of representative men was ever held in this county. When the board voted, there was no dissenting voice. , After the action of the commissioners was known, the directors of the Hen dersonvllle Lake, Land and Power Co. held a meeting with T.C. Williams' and F. B. Martin, the representatives of the outside capitalists, in the office of Capt. Toms. As a result of this meet ing it may be definately stated that in all probabilty, the work will be started this Spring, and over a hundred 1 and fifty thousand dollars spent here - this spring and summer. There is only thing which can now prevent it holding the land at unreasonable , values. . No one can now realize what it means to Henderson county, to have this great body of water here. Nearly . three limes the size of Toxaway, with six mountain peaks nearly 6,000 feet high within plain sight of it, a magnificent boulevard of 40 miles around it, street cars all over Henderson vllle, automo bile lines ruunlng clear around the lake, pleasure craft of all kinds on the . lake, with fine fishing and bathing, it means that Henderson ville will be the most widely known, the most beautiful city o the world. It will be the play ground pt, the world . In five years It will treble its taxable valuation. In that time it will have 20,000 permanent residents. Every hotel now built will be kept full and many others will be built. . Millions of dollars will be spent here. Farmers will get three to five times the prices for their pro ducts that they now receive. There is no man so poor but that he will receive direct and Immediate bene fits from the construction of this great enterprise. Other enterprises will fol low and no one can tell the future of the city and county. These are not visions, but are almost the exact words used by Jevel . headed, hard business men at the meeting of the board of county commissioners. They are the words of men who do not dream, but practical successful men of affairs.- If you want the lake and these bene fits, give as low a price on your land as you can, The company Is willing to pay present values, but absolutely refuse to pay prospective values. A rather small crowd met at the court house on Tuesday. Some earnest speeches - were made and a few men present made reductions in the price asked fer their land. - Sheriff Williams said the - map shows the lake would be one of the most if not the most beauti ful body of water in the world, and that for erery dollar we spend on it we will realize one hundred. Stated the com pany, would spend a vast amount of money here, would advertise the town at the Jamestown Exposition exten sively, and in fact all over the world. Believes it would increase tl.e taxable property to value 6f from two to five million dollars. At. present it id less than one million j dollars, add said can we afford to drop the pmj 'ct? W. A. Garland stated the Southern railway would spend $60,000 on eridgts. They will, Mr. Hays was quoted as sayr ing, have to change tbe trestle anyway, and are willing to do all they can to help the big undertaking. It was stated, that if the company took, over the op tions they would start work almost im mediately and the dam would be built and; commence to sell land during the summer. . x - '. ' Messrs. Williams and Martin repre senting the capitalists with whom the local company have been negotiating, anivedln the city Tuesday evening, and the proposition has been submitted to them. They now have tbe matter under- consideration. - In a few words the matter now stands as follows: The couuty commissioners will build certain bridges and give the use of the chalngang. . , The eitv authorities, propably, will attend to the sewer, that is putting it beneath the lake itself. The capitalists will construct the dam, build - tbe boulevard around the lake, spending ' about $150,000 this spring and summer. v V It is said the city s and county's interest will be amply safeguarded in The Hospital. The. excellent financial results from the lecture .given last Monday for the benefit of the Hospital has stirred up a more , general interest in that worthy work. As the matter now stands, the ladles have two good building lots, they have some, ready money in tbe bank, they will, soon' have the working plans for tbe building, will shortly have some lumber and other material on ;the ground, and have the promise of much more material and ' labor, and last, but not least, the hospital will be furnished completely just as soon as it is erected. J They will need about $2,000 to put up the building. It is believed that this city is able. to do that much.'- The ladles have worked hard and made manv sacrifices to get the scheme this far and with the well .known public spirit .of Hendersonville'a .citizenship,, they are confident their efforts will receive the. substantial backing of the .whole com munity.. The Hospital belongs to no denomination,1, but to all. Jts work is, for the relief of pain. tMany vataajbie lives would , be saved, and much need- less suffering saved, were the hospital an .accomplished fact today. Scores , of . . people - who may not afford the expense of going to 'Biltmore, Athevills, Baltl-. more, or other places for treatment, ' could stay at home and receive the tama benefits. ' . .. v v, Its the most worthy enterprise ever : started in this city and must not be-... allowed o fail. It's a good thing to be in favor of the hospital, but what the . ladies need Is "something more, and that ii MONEY. . - - - 1 J- . v S This space reserved lor the Opening Announcement The Red Store is located opposite the Blue 'Ridge Inn, next door to : the Bowling Alley.
