Senator Simmons is very much encouraged with the outlook in ii,e Senate and hopes that when the bill is passed by that body, much of the unjust discrimination against our State will have been . eliminated. Mr. Simmons Is one el' the most effective workers in the Semite. *-.THE_ ASHEVII T E GAZETTE-mafch h Hep's That When River and Harbor Bill Passes Senate it Will b) More Favorable in Its Provisions For North Carolina. (Special to News and ObaeryerO Washington, D- C, March ID.—The < 'crnniiitee on Agriculture ga ■ hearing to the Appalachia 111 to day. Representatives Brownlow, of Tennessee; Rhea, of Virginia; Kluttz, and Moody, representing the North Carolina delegation and others wire present- Representatives Kluttz anil Moody, State Geologist Holmes and other gentlemen addressed the committee. A splendid impression was made on the committee. The atter was referred to the min'iiiee ,.n appropriations to port to the full committee at the next tnoetins. Mr. Kluttz said tonight that, there :a itlbt of a favorable report from the committee and he believes the report will be unanimous. The bill has already been reported favorably to the Senate. The North Carolina colony here is very much elated over the speech of Mr. Small in the House today. Pie spoke, with forcible power and had the closest, attention of the House. His remarks of the Inland waterway project and his proval of the dangers and horrows of Hattcras we're Interesting and Impressive. * Senator Sirmmons and family are comfortably located at The Portland. Mrs. ! Simmons has Improved since coming to Washington. The North Carolina on is very much dl appointed with the River and I l.-.i I 0) I lill as It will pass the House, it Is fell that mi North Carolina amendments Will lie adopted in the House, al- though Messrs. Bellamy and Small will offer them. Mr. Small today vigorously attacked the bill, pointing oui the unjust, discriminations against North Carolina. Every since the House Committee re ported the bill Senator Simmons has been quietly working with the of the Senate Committee on Commerce, I to which the River ami Harbor Pill will go for better treatmenl for our North Caiolinc rivis and habors. Hi has held daily conferences with m< that committee and has impressed upon them tie injustice to our State in the ti ■ .FOR FOeiJESERV 1 Unanimous Report Expected from Committee. Much Work Has Been done byi Movement's Friends. Dr. Ambler and Mr. Nichols Attend Committee Hearing. in. C. P. Amlbler returned yesterday afternoon from Washington where he' attended a hearing of the Appalachian National Forest Reserve bill before the.' '-ouihiittee of agriculture of the house. The arguments for the forest reserve ; before this committee of agriculture were made by Professor. Gifford Pinchot, Professor J. A. Holmes of Chapel . Hill, Professor McGee of Washington and Congressman Browmo'v of Tennep- j see. Mr. Seymore of Knowitle model a few remarks on the question of title and of the possibility of securing such | I lands as might be desired, while Dr. I Ambler, upon request, gave a short his- | ■ tory of the movement advocated by the \ I Park association, of 'which he is sect- ' tary, and answered numerous questions asked by the committeemen. J I Each member of the committee seem- [ ed to take a great interest in, the bill, and from the 'indications, those who 1 tave the matter in charge in Washing- on, believe that this committee will make a unanimous report in its favor. A 'majority report is already practically assured. When it is remembered that the agricultural committee of the senate has already made a favorable report to that body and that the president has also presented a special message to congress endorsing the move- 'ment, it appears that the whole ,pro- 'jeet is in the best possible shape with a likelihood of succeeding at the present session of congress. Dr. Ambler says he was much astonished at the amount of work Professor Pimchot and Professor Holmes, assisted by our senators and congressmen, have done in Washington regarding this matter during the past fe>w months. Professor Holmes presented before the committee a relief map of the iwhole southern range of mountains. The map was nine feet long by four feet wide. It had In miniature every peak, valley and river of the whole section, being colored in shades corresponding to the cleaied acreas, forest lands, burped sections, cultivated ground, etc., and placed the 'matter before the committee in a very convincing manner. The geological survey also presented numerous maps showing the different varieties of timber, together with many photographs showing the influence upon the mountain lands by the present methods of deforestation. There has already been a bill prepared which this .committee now has under consideration for presentation to the house and in this bill will appear points which will answer questions iwhlch have recently appeared in the press regarding the legal status of land ow-ners ■who would not desire to sell to the g-overnment. ' J. A. Nichols was also present at the bearing of the agricultural committee. He will not return to Asheville for several days. The outlook for the iforest reservation Is brighter today than it has ever been before and those who are promoting this (movement now feel that there is a good chance of success at the present session of 'congress. The pending bill will soon be ready for publication. The Asheville Citizen MONDAY, MARCH 24, 1901. APPROPRIATION OF TEN MILLIONS FOR THE PARK (Special io The Citizen.) Washington, D.

This is one of two notebooks assembled by the Appalachian National Park Association that includes documents and news clipping about the organization. The Appalachian National Park Association was formed in 1899 for the purpose of promoting the idea of a national park in the eastern U.S. Although housed in Asheville, North Carolina, the organization was a multi-state effort, attracting representatives from seven southern states. One of the highlights of the group’s activities was a convention held in 1902 to which 1,500 people attended. The association lobbied Congress for the creation of a park, but with limited success. The association disbanded in 1905.
