We. f.halknae. tie hntcrwise. the official organ of the Courl House Ring and the claim specu lators of tie county, to point out a single instance in which tee have made a mis-statement of 5 fads, or have mis-quoted the m records of the county. Hot SprlDgS Coming tO the Front In all this mountain country there is no quarter of it that sur passes in attractiveness,picturesque ness and scenic beauty the county of Madison. And in those respects there is no locality that exceeds tnat stretch of the French Broad valley where dio little city of Hot Springs gladdens the eye with its t.isteful homes, attracts attention by its half dozen church sp:res and awakens admiration by its other spacious structures of rood' ru architecture and charming sur roundings. To the traveller passing through or to the visitor in the town, the the Mountain Park Hotel looms fliBt on the sight with its half mile of glass enclosed ver.indahs, its pleasing colors, splendid under tho recent touches of the painters, its ample grounds adorned tastefully with holly, bal-am, ivy and other greenery, and surrounded by its matchlers stretches of golf links. When nature scoi.ped out the French Broad Valley, prepara'ory to sending its pellucid waters on their journey of song, down to the sea, she must have said, when reaching the point whero now smiles this charming little city, "Here I'll do my level best to make a lovely spot to which men and women will journev from the ends of the earth." And this was done. The celebrated resort, the Moun tain Park hotel, under its new ex perienced and superb management, the Mess's. Cobb, proprietors and Mr. fcuttle. lor several years with the house as chief clerk, is delight fully inviting in it? additional im provements and its comfortable and elegant new furnishing-. Be sid) the marked thoughtfulness, noticeable on every hand for the comfort, health and convenience of the guests, there pervades the whole establishment an air of cor dial, genial hospitality that seems to remove this superb hostelry out of the realm of commonplace com mercialism and make it a really congenial temporary home for the p'rr.sure seeker as well as the inva lid hunting rest aud restoration to h-altri, , The rare medical virtues of the ol.the hot springs have lng .ben lecognixed by physicians of th hi-Jic standing, and wonder- fui cur.'t have been effected here. For rheumatism, gout and stomach itnmbles these sPnugs are acknow. hedged to be among the finest in the world. There are no hot spring cast of ths-Missisippi river tha equal these in temperature or compare with them in fine curative result. ' , " Throughout the county cf Madi son there are numberless points of rare picturesque beauty that be m-'Pt admirably adapted to the estkblishnieat of places ot enter tainment for vis tors or (ourjsts. It was onfe the case that the main thoroughfare fro in Tennessee and Kentucky was up , and nlong the French, Broad Valley. There .1 now a need of a highway, a public roail, across the county, that would at one accomodate this t de of travel aud slso poen up some of the most desirable sectious of the county aud" make easy communica tion by dirt road from one aids of the county to the other. If this should be done, it is not improba ble that there would follow a stage line from Asbeville to Hot Springs alniig which would roll und tumble the eld-fashioned stage coaches, making a novelty iu the way of (ravel id these days ot rapid railway trains and predictions of riving ma chines and derigable balloons. This recurrence to first principles would be refreshing and a zest and additional charm would ba given to this stretch of travel through one of the most attractive sections ot the mountains. QUESTIONS UNANSWERED. Wdl the Enterprise, the official organ of the Court House Ring and tho claim speculators of the coun ty, '(commonly known as Little Ananias) please answer the follow ing questions, . all of which have been asked seveial times before but have never been answered? First.- Why do not tho GIANT I commissioners require thecounly officers to make their itemized and verified annual reports as required by sections 728 of the Code and section 9!i of chapter 7 of the public laws of 1901? Second; Why do not the GIANT Commissioners require the Sheriff to hie a verified state nient of the Money on hand on the first- Monday in every month as rcouired by Chapter 7, Section OR' of the Acts of 1901? Caught In Another One. Editor Huron": I seo in this week's issuu of tho Enterprise, that it charges the Record with lying, m reference to my selling tho ink-rest I had in that paper. I want to stale that tho Recoid rnaclu no false statement ab ,ut the matter, and hasniaiuno statement that I did not authorfze to be maup and I am responsible for what was said in reference to the. sale being made. I am unable to see what interest the Enttrprise and the Court House Ring 1ms inpryig mlo my private busir.es. If they would only attend lo their own private affairs as I do mine, I haye no doubt but thev would be more highly respoc ted than they are. J. J. Reduon. OUR HOT SPRINGS LETTER. Hot Springs, Jr.n. 21. The Dorland Institute, one of the orna ments of the town, continues to grow in popularity and usefulness. It was founded in 1894, primarily as a girls' school and is under the supervision of the Presbyterian church. The faculty and maoage ment are women of attainments experience and scholarship which eminently fit them for tho positions which they so satisfactorily fill. There are now GO girls in the hand some dornvtory and the school in all numbers about 150 pupils. A niong these are the pupils in the boy's dep rtment whose dormitory is two miles out. They numbe 35. The buildings and grounds in the aggregate cost about $180 JO. A more detailed account of this ad mirable school and its operations and 'growth will be given later in this correspondence, i It gratifying to be ablo to note the tact that the brilge across the i rench Broad at this point is soon to be put in poei.ion. The con tractors, the Brackett Bridge Co., of Cincinnati, state that the iron work for the bridge has been com pleted and the delay in i s ship ment is caused by the shortage of cars at present. At an early day it is said, work willbejin on this bad ly needed structure. The contract requires its comp'etion by Juno 1. The absence of this bridge has been keenly lent by largo numbers . of citixcns in the northern quarter of the county, and its completion will be-gladly bailed.

(I'runi our regular correspondent.) Washington, Jan. 20. The niOiit adroit leadership in both the Senate and the House has alone prevented the developemcnt of ser ious factional disturbances in re publican ranks during the week just passed and it is only a question of tune when they will break out in violent form on the floors of those bodies. It is difficult for one nol actually on tho scene to appreciate lo what an extent the House of Representatives has ceased to be a dehboiative body. For a time the republican members lelt them selves repaid for their loss of pow er by the example of perfect dis cipline which they set to the coun try, but now that they are in to great a majority as to believe them selves relieved from the danger of demociatio aggressions, they are longing for the birthright which they bartered. Smarting with a sense of their loss of influence, the representa tives are humiliated by the arro gance of ceriain Senators who to day openly say that the attitude of the House toward any ot the impor tant questions which Congress must answer is of no importance as the Senate can & will rectify the errots ot tho "impulsive and irrespon sible" lower body. Senator Cullum is to-day preparing a speech in sup port of his contention .that the House has no right to be heard in the matter of reciprocal treatiis which are, the Senator alleges, a matter for the Senate and Presi dent alone to consider. In view of the very important subject of reel procitv with Cuba which must soon be determined, the position of the senior Senator from Illinois and a large number of his colleagues ' is particularly exasperating. There is no mistaking ' the in tent o' the Dinglcy bill which says that such treaties must be approved by Congress", but Senators Cul lum. Lodge. 8pooner, Frye, Hanna and others bold to the opinion thai, according to the Constitution, the tbe Praideut and the Senate "aloce constitute the treat y-makiog power". Senator Lodge modifies his opinion somewhat, however, by saying that he believes that it would be conrtesy to onsult the House because any reciprocal treaty affects the question of rais ing revenue. The Philippine tariff bill will le reported to the Senate today or to morrow and it : is predicted that the debate on its provisions will last for a month, ; Senator Lodge professes to believe that it will be eventually passed as reported, but there are members of his own par. tv who greatly differ from him and who say that it will have to be re ferred back to the committee. Prominent among these is Senator Mitchell of Oregon, After the bill sets through the Senate It will have to pass the House 'and if the Senate persists in i'.s determination to exclude that body from a voice in the Cuban reciprocity affair there is every possibility that Mr. Payne, chairman of. the Ways and Afeans Committee, and bis col leagues will treat the matter with little consideration, as they believe that Senator Lodge, in his capaci ty of champion cf the- administra tion, will thus be brought to terms and will be forced to oppose the Senate fore;gn relations 'Committee in order to relieve Secretary Root from his present embarrassing po- sition. . The Isthmian CanaJ.while by no means a partizan question, is capable of causing trouble that miy develope along partizan lines. Senator Morgan, who is as firmly committed to the Nicaraguau route as ever, called at the White House recently and came away seriously dis- satisfied with the re sult of his interview with tbe Presi dent. He is also much disturbed at Senator Hanna's apparent disaf fecfion in favor of the Parien route. This route would require the construction of a tunnel ' five miles long, through a solid granite " mountain and the Senator from Alabama considers it lacking in feasibility and its agitation merely an attempt to delay canal legisla tion. . The Senate Committee on Com merce has authorized a favorable report on the Hanna-Frye ship subsidy bill by a strict party vote, every democrat on the committee voting against it. Senator . Fry makes the most extrava gant claims for tbe bill and in the- mnin nisjcolleagues are obliged to take his word in the matter as there -is probably no other man in the Senate who can tell just bow tho' bill will wot k when put in practice. It now seems probable that tbe bid will pais the Senate nnder prea- sure of the party lash but it is very douotful it it can ret through the House. Eyery democrat in the House will vote against it and there are said to be a number ot republi cans who regard a vote for the bill as political suioide. 'The anarchy bills are going to make trouble in the House", said a democratic member from New Ysrk. when I asked him why Con gress was doing nothing in a mat ter on which all tbe. members seem- -J I- -t ... .... iv vo iu uku vt vuc raiaa. mere is little difference in tbe uiinda of toe members as to the necessity oi passing a biil to pie rent aaajchists coming into the country but thrre i great Jealousy in the Couimiltees iu regard to the matter. ;. Ganeral Shalt uo, chairman of the Committee ' on Immigration, does not consider hat the Judiciary Committee has tbe right to pass on any measure which deals with Imuigrton. Tbe members of the Judiciary com mittee themselves are Jealous ot Chairman Ray became they think he desires to arrogate to himself too large a share of the glory that will pertain to the authorship of the bill that finally passes.
