S. W. HAMILTON
S. W. Hamilton died at his home
in , Hendersonville at 6 o'clock
Thursday morning, November 3,
aged 66. He had. been in feeble
health for a number of years.
The death of Mr. Hamilton will
be felt as a. great loss to this com
munity. He was a man who had
the respect and high esteem of all
who knew him. He was a veteran
of the Civil War. In more recent
years he served as a county com
missioner and a justice of the
peace and rendered very efficient
services in those capacities. He
was a life-long member of the Bap
tist church. In politics he was a
staunch republican but had' count
less friends among men of all par
ties and opinions. For many years
he was a leader at many of the old
time singings, and will be sadly
missed at those gatherings.
There survive him his wife two
brothers, four sisters, one son, three
daughters and several grandchild
children, all of whom have the
sympathy of the community in
their loss.

Vice-President Sherman
Makes a Strong Speech
Don't forget the grand rally, the closing rally of
the campaign, Monday, November 7, at the auditor
ium. Come everybody, and bring your folks, and
have a good time.
Speakers of state-wide reputation will add to
the pleasure of the occasion. Among those who are
expected may. be mentioned Hon. I. M. Meekins,
Judge Ewart, Hon. Thomas Settle and Congressman
Grant.
Letter from
M. N. Conner
Editor Times:
Will you allow me space in your
paper for a few remarks from this
county of Rutherford. I am a true
republican from old Henderson
county and exDect to remain one as
long as 1 live for we have had pros
perity ever since William McKinley
was elected president of the United
States and prosperity back in Gar
field's administration. The fair
minded democrats are coming into
the republican camp every day;
they are getting on Grant's and the
republican band wagon every day.
Grant is going to snow Gudger under
so 4eep on the 8th of November
that Mr. Gudger will be like William
T. Crawford who, in Old Fort, said
that he would not run for office any
more if a man like Grant could beat
him to congress. Yes, Mr. Craw
ford is sorry he can't stand as high
as Congressman Grant can in North
Carolina in the Tenth congressional
district; and Hon. J. M. Gudger will
be as sorry and worse defeated than
Hon. W. T. Crawford was last elec
tion. The Henrietta democrats say they
dotft think but what Grant will be
elected back .to congress again.
Some of the democrats think it will
be very close between them in
Rutherford. I believe Grant will
win in this county and I believe
further the republican ticket will be
elected in Rutherford, and Cleveland
is going to be very close.
The fair minded democrats are
getting on the republican band
wagon every day in North Carolina.
The farmers are in the best condi
tion they have ever been in since
president McKinley 's first election;
and if the farmers wish to stay on
top and get big"prices for their farm
products, vote for Hon. J. G. Grant
and the republican - ticket, and the
American people will have protec
tion to the farmers and wage earn
ers in Western North Carolina.
And if the voters want the rich
man on top, vote the democratic
ticket-and let them produce soup
houses again and bring labor down
again in Western North Carolina'as
they did in Cleveland's administra-r
tion. , ' ..
Hon. J. G. Grant will; carry Ifen
derson county at the least account
700 maiority and it is thought the
republicans will carry McDowell in
tne approacmng eiecuon.
If Mr. Gudger had not denied
what Congressman Grant did "for
North Carolina, he could have run
Grant pretty close; but he can't fool
the ? voters all the time; he fooled
them at the beginning of the cam
psign but tkey'soon found out he
was telling falsehoods and trying to
deceive" the people of the Tenth
district, ; tftsioci&ts cs wcH ' ei r-
publicans, for the purpose of getting
back to congress.
I am a well wisher to all of the
republicans of Henderson county.
I have been been in South Carolina
for awhile and as I can't vote this
election I hope to hear on the 6th
of November of every republican in
Henderson county being elected.
I wish I could vote for them all
from Grant to constable.
Yours truly,
M N. Conner.
Henrietta, Rutherford county.
The difference between the dem
ocrats and republicans is Just this:
The democrats want to do nothing
and still have some money to buy
things cheap, while the republicans
want to keep busy and have things
to sell at a good price. One is a
silly dream and the other is a sen
sible reality. Greensboro News.

The Outlook
' The American Bible society's
report figures up a total of 2,826,-
831 volumes, including entire Bibles
New Testaments, and smaller por
tions of scripture, as issued during
the year just ended, an advance up
on the issues of the preceding year
of 673,803 volumes. One reason
for this great output, of which a
very large portion have been sold,
is that its field is the world. Be
sides, the central press in New York
are presses in Turkey, Syria, Siam
China, and Japan, co-operating in
the supply for readers in nearly
seventy languages and dialects.
Another reason is the number of
agents canvassing the world field,
eight hundred in all, three-fourths
of them in foreign lands. The third
reason is the fact that the business
is not carried on as a self-sustaining
business. The expenditure, of last
year was offset by a return of less
than one-third of it from sales, the
balance being made good by bene
volent gifts to the society's treasury
Asheville. Oct. 28.-Vice-Presi-dent
James Schoolcraft Sherman
was here tonight and made -a fine
speech. A sudden change of weath
er brought unexpected snow and
biting winds; but in spite of these
disadvantages, a large, representa
tive and appreciative audience
gathered in the opera house where
numbers of persons who could not
find seats stood in crowded ranks,
and, thanks to the genial warmth
of the Vice-President's address,
were able to forget the chill discom
fort of the arctic temperature of the
building.
In presenting Mr. Sherman, Mr.
Britt said that it now looked as if
the south will come again into its
own in national prominence, but
that this will come only when the
republican party makes great gains
in the south. The south now has
the honor of entertaining a person
who for years has stood in the house
as an exponent of protection and
who is giving the south a small
part of his time, asking southern
people to vote for the republican
policies.
When Mr. Sherman arose he was
greeted with tremendous applause.
He held his audience's attention
throughout.
In beginning Mr. Sherman thank
ed his hearers for the cordial wel
come he received both here and all
over North Carolina.
'T have come here to preach the
gospel of republicanism," he said,
"and I love to talk about that gospel
for it's true. I come here, not as
Vice-President, but as one who be
lieves in the doctrine of republican
ism. I do not attribute to demo
crats any lack of patriotism for their
views; they have as great a desire
to make and do things for public
good as we have, but they have" the
fatality of not being able to discern
what a given state of facts will do
under a given condition. They be
lieve their policies are as good as
ours, but have not had opportunity
to put them into practice except
once, and then the country was
thrown into a panic."
Speaking of republicans carrying
out pledges, he said: "Every time
we have said we are going to do a
thing we did it. Our policies have
worked out all right. Does any
democrat want to repeal the act of
Autumn
The Autumn-and the keen-and frosty

1875 establishing the resumption of
specie payment; of the.gold stand
ard? I do not believe you nuw want
the party to do away with protec
tive tariff. In 192 the democrats
got to business and the country
quit business. No one wants to re
turn to conditions like those under
Cleveland. Then, for heuven's sake,
why don't you vote that way?
. "I heard Champ Clark, in the
house of representatives, - say that
he had voted for the Wilson-Gorman
bill and that he was sorry he
did it The democrats oppose our
policies, but after the matter has
been settled, they admit that they
were wrong. Ihey are as patriotic
as we are, and they want prosperity
as much as we do; but their, judg
ment is bad; they cannot properly
estimate in advance the effect of
the application of certain principles
to given conditions. They lack
foresight; they remind me of the
poem about the lightning bug:
"The lightning fcug is brilliant,
But he hasn't any mind,
He goes through his existence
With his headlight on tehind."
Mr. Sherman spoke of the large
amount of valuable legislation al
ready enacted by congress during
this administration in fulfilment of
the pledges of the republican plat
form, and he said that the other
pledges in that platform would be
carried out before the close of the
administration if the next house is
republican. In order that the ad
ministration may complete, the
work of carrying into effect all of its
promises, it is necessary that the
President shall have the backing of
a majority of the house; and Mr.
Sherman strongly urged his hearers
to do all in their power to return
John Grant to congress.
A man can get a swelled head
just by thinking how he hasn't one.
