THE HOUSE LEADER'S TOSITION.
Washington correspondents of some
of the newspapers state that they are
"told on good authority" that Presi
dent Wilson "does not sympathize with
any movement to oust Congressman'
Claud Kitchin from the leadership ol
the Jiouse branch of the congress. If
there is any such "movement on foot
Congressman Claud. Kitchin has ar
rived immediately under the -limelight.

Evidently "T. R." is thinking up
something to sayw as he has not been
heard from publicly for some time.
Do yon notice how carefully and
persistently Mr. Bryan refrains from
saying anything at all about the
hyphen? --
Hendersonville is enjoying the bene
fits of daily medical examination of
school children. - It's a good thing
even though we were forced to it. ---
for the. national ' defense as recom
mended by Bxesident Wilson, he can
eliminate himself as party leader witn
more grace than the party could "oust
him. . And that is probably what the
second district congressman would do
if the contingency we have just sug -gested
should become unavoidable."
Rut it is smeeested by Senator Un-
...
derwood that Mr. Kitchin's position
not fully understood by the public yet,
and that there may be no necessity of
the elimination of the . Tarheel by any
method as majority leader of the in -coming
House. -
The new rest room for ladies andj
children is one of the greatest luxuries
ever- offered the out-of-town shoppers
by the merchants of Hendersonville.
Use it freely.
The Hendersonville Merchants asso
ciation and the Greater Heidersonvillo
club are getting ready to unite on a
proposition that will make secretarial
matters eclipse anything of the past.
Keep it in mind.
If the people keep on talking and
writing about the needs of a park in
Hendersonville they will be likely to
" stir up a little favorable sentiment. A
central park is one of our greatest
needs.

The county school teachers will dis
cuss the Important matter of a two

that they have very progressive ideas -just
what is needed to better our edu
cational condition.
"
The county commencement was such
a big success last year that the teach
ers have decided to have a bigger
event this year. A great deal of th
preliminary work that was done last
year will not have to be repeated. A
county commencement is abig. thing
and means much for the community,
therefore "the teachers should be en
couraged to the fullest extent in this
worthy undertaking. '
W. J. Bryan is beginning to prove the
correctness of-the forecasts of some
of his critics. He. no longer -butters

president of the United States and tjhe
prediction that he will hot support

think so, openly admit that they would
liot be surprised at such a condition

Chairman William F. McCombs, pt
the Democratic National Committee
has notified the members of a meeting
to be held in Washington on December
7 for the purpose of deciding upon
a time and place for holding the next
national convention. Chicago, Dallas,
Sr. Louis and other cities will ask fo
the convention and a spirited rivalry
is in progress. The question of a can
ddate is happily settled it being gen
erally conceded that the nomination
"will go to President Wilson without a
contest,, with the present vice-Dresi-
dent as his running mate, The cam
paign slogan will probably be "America-.

BUYING AT HOME.
A SEASON OF PROSPERITY.
The calamity howler is out of a
job. From every quarter comes tut
glad tidings that times are getting bet
ter. Business men, professional men,
traveling men, farmers, mechanics
nearly everybody in fact, says so aud
it must be the truth. Industrial, giants
are running overtime and wage-earners,
: who were idle a year ago when
business was almost in a "state of pa
ralysis on account of conditions
brought about by the European wa
are again "on the job" with hope writ
ten in-their ' hearts. The newspapers
say so, the traveling men tell it to their
patrons, the manufacturers are crowd
ed with orders for their wares the
railroads admit lack of equipment to
handle increased freight shipments,
real estate is becoming more active,
building operations have taken on new
life, bank deposits are above normal,
so there . must be something besides
high-sounding platitudes- in the claim
that the country is facing a season ol
unusual prosperity. Even "big busi
ness" joins in the glad acclaim. A
better. day is coming. A case in point
is a circular recently sent broad cast
over the country by the -National Cash
Register ' Company, of Dayton Ohio,
which contains these significant suggestions:
r "Merchants everywhere tell our 800
salesmen that business is booming.
Farmers have had two record crops,
at big prices, with big demands', at
home and abroad.
Stocks of manufactured materials ar.
short, and labor is in great demand.
Exports largely exceed imports.
AS TO MR. BRYAN.
. Don't fail - to read Rev. ; Mr. Ker
shaw's contribution in this issue of the
Democrat : This timely and thought
ful. article contains ' some rich food
which should be properly digested. It
shows conclusively that he has-.-given
the subject careful consideration , and
that he has the ."better interests of thl
community at heart: .That's th
streak we - like to. see" making Itself
conspicuous in every -citizen. Read
the article carefuly, -for it's worth
while. ' :

RECENT ELECTIONS.
' Elections held in a number of
States last week indicate a; tendency
on the part of Colonel RooseveH'-i
progressives to desert their new lovo
and return to the old. This is? es
pecially significant in the returns from
Massachusetts, which show the ejec
tion . of the Republican candidate f oi'
governor, displacing a democrat who
won on a. plurality vote two and four
years ago. -The Republican majority
is very small, but sufficiently large to
change the political complexion of .ths
Bay Statef. Similar gainfe in other
states would indicate a line up nexf
year between the two old parties .with
present prospects favorable to tho
Democrats who are united on their
standard bearer, while the Republi
cans face a bitter pre-conventlon con
test and probable division after their
nominations are , made Mr. Wilson
