The law forbids bribery in elections Watch the men who sell their votes. Let all democrats look well to-day. See that all are straight. Dr. Battle after the tenth of this month makes the Battery Park Hotel his permanent residence. " The man who would buy his fellow man would sell him again and is purchas able himself." Ds.. J. S. T. Baibd. Pearson hopes to carry Buncombe by the free use of money. If he does the manhood of the county is disgraced. The democracy of the county nomina ted Jones and Gudger. Will the Aebe ville democracy turn their backs on their farmer friends 7 We are glad to announce the ' re turn after quite a long absence to New York and elsewhere of Mr. J. Evans Brown. Gen. Clingman took conspicuous and useful part in the discussions before the State Agricultural Socie ty in Raleigh. A large crowd was in the city yes terday, but everything was very quiet and orderly. Our stores did a good business, however. - . The showy stocks of goods now exhibited in Asheville attract, dally, large crowds. Asheville never pre sented such lanre stocks before. - Richmond Pearson expressed surprise that Dr. Baird had not learned that a politician had to eat all sorts of dirt and crawl in the slime in order to attain success! . Turner is satisfying every one. His cuisine is superb. " The ten cent lunch house is rapidly growing in popularity, it must soon enlarge its borders. - Sawyer's stock of gentlemen's and boys' clothing is something to as tonish. It is large, elegant and. varied, so that every one can be suited. Prof C. D. Smith, Capt, Kelsey, Mr. Boggs and other visitors to the Raleigh Fair have returned, and some of them have passed on their way home. ; ; Mr. Natt Atkinson Jr's friends are proud of the fine exhibit he mane at K-.tleigh. Northern visi tors say they never sa . anything like it in the display Of apples. - There are few better and smoother running roads in the South than the W. N. C. R. R. from Paint Rock to Salisbury, the section between Asheville and the latter point being especially fine. It runs 'without a jar or a jolt. - . y.-.r ; ?- The very many friends of Mr. TJ. Doubleday are glad to welcome -his return to Asheville. on ' Saturday evening after an absence of several months. - tie relumed from a sum' mer visit to Europe in September, anrl is now from Bergen Point, N..J. Closed. .;' ' - The Bank of Asheville and the First National Bank will be closed to-day. . ,- Why go about with that aching head ? Try Ayers Pills. They will relieve the stomach, restore the digestive orzons to healthy action, remove the "obstructions that depress nerves and brain, and thus cure your headache permanently. Vi7 Th Bargain Cocntbb at Law's. 'i Just started, on it will be tilaced all goods that for any reason will be sold at half price. - A splendid stock of fine Sii verware.

The dry, cool wind baa begun to set the dust in motion. Buncombe's ereat staple, cabbage. came in yesterday in large quantity, and nne quality. - - , Let us have peace to-day, full vot ing, but quiet exercise of the rights of freemen- Dr. "R., H. Reeves returns this morning from a visit to Tennessee, of which his patrons will pleaso take notice. -. - - The fine beef in the different meat markets is creditable to this section. Meat is good now; why not keep it np to the standard all the year round? - "A white frost -covered the ground yesterday morning, the first general one of the season.; The mercury nearly touched the freezing point at sunrise. The day J following was magnificent. ! . ' . "' White men of Ashevilley yoa who cannot be bought, will you endorse the methods of Mr. Pearson, such as you know he has resorted to to buy men to vote and work" for him. by voting for him yourselves? As an indication of the Increased population of Asheville, 501 new votes were registered by Mr. Sum mey preliminary to to-day's election. Probably 5,000 votes will be cast in Buncombe to day. - 7 The boys worked hard on yester day, preparatory . for to day. Let every man keep cool to-day, work as his conscience tells him he should work, and democracy will again come out triumphant. Maj. Wilson informed us a few days ago that he was fully at work with his survey of the French Broad Railroad. The line runs down the right banks of the -river as far as Newport. Parties are watching the bribery business which has been going on the part campaign, and men have already been spotted for Judge Shuford's next court. Let all bribe givers and bribetakers beware. . Until the nomination of Jones and Gudger when have the Democrats of the county insisted on men of their own choice? The farming interests are vitally concerned in this contest and to elect Pearson and Wells is to give those in terests a telling blow. Will Asheville merchants and business men do that? Mr. Pearson's paper the Advance said a few days ago that "Boodle" not brains, would control in this campaign. We only ask if honest men will allow "Boodle" candidates to carrv Buncombe. Can it be pos sible?" A good man heard a crowd at Warm Springs discussing Flopd oodles, and up on hearing it explained what they were, replied with disgust, "Why. I thought sorce of them sore tailed monkeys had got away from the circus, and the folks in Buncombe were trying to catch them." He was not so far wrong in his idea of them or of what they are like, alter all. There are men who have been pocketing Mr. Pearson's money, ten and twenty dollars per week, some one and two dollars Der day, to work and vote for him. How can such, born of decent parentage, raised as honest white men, enter upon, such work. . Great God, have white men in Buncombe come to this ! - - Mr. Pearson's paper urges it read ers to "vote the straight ticket" The Advance professes to be a "democrats ic" paper. Is it going back on its republican friends at this late day ? or does it mean to throw of all pre tense to democracy and urge all to vote tne rr publican ticket. Why does it not say who it wishes people to vote for? Mr. Ellick, the dealer in lurs in this city, was indicted and tried by the recent Inferior . Court for false weights and measurements, and af ter a very exhaustive trial, with all the evidences which could be pro duced, was acquitted. -We are not only glad of this acquittal but from what we learn we think the prosecu tion was totally unjust. Mr. Ellick, bo far as we can ascertain, has : al ways been a straight forward trader, and, . has really been of -much ad vantage to onr people by ; buying turs, &c, wnica could not nave oth erswise been disposed of. 1 .

" A family named Johnson living in Washington county, were all taken down with flux in a very aggravated form.

City. ; - It was remarked by a great many strangers 'who visited Asheville this sum mer how much the beauty and attrac tiveness of the city would be enhanced were-the unsightly fences taken away that the narrowness of the streets would thereby be relieved, and with the plant ing of trees and shrubberry. the lay me of goad side-walks; with .the Electric lights the effect would be picturesque making the resident portion of the city a - lovely park.'

Let there heatamtly consult ation, a home convention on this subject before casting th is vote. Mb. Fox as a Stock Law Man. ' The following certificate pf Mr. Fox's position on the stock -law, given by some of his own near neighbors and friends,! ought to encourage those anti-stock law democrats and republicans in giving him a very hearty support for Senator, that is, all save Mr. Pearson, who, doubtless will find new reasons for not supporting him with . throat-splitting enthusiasm. The certificate says : "Alkxahder's, N.X., Oct. 28. This is to certify that we are neighbors of M. J. J. Fox, republican candidate for the Senate,' and know that he was an un compromising stock-law man at the time it was imposed by the June meeting of the Board of Commissioners and Magis trates of Buncombe county; and have neard him say that he was in favor 01 stock-law for Buncombe if it had to be stolen in the night time.

It is hard to tell which wears the happiest expression, the beautiful cluster ol dolls that fills "Sawyer's show windows, or j.he .children who look on with covetous or wondering eyes. Some of these dolls, are wonders of beauty and taste in dress, and surpass the most extrayagant ideas of the little girls. There are dolls of all sizes and prices; from an arm full down to the tiny toy, from $30 down to ten cents. How much happiness in that show window ! or rather how much happiness can be shed there-. from! . Amussements. The next show on the tapis ia something new in the way of novel ty. The show is the ZeraSemonand Bell's Royal Marionettes from " the Crystal Palace London England.

Both parties to the affair were the children ot John Ross, and the shooting occurred while the children were alone in the house. The boy found a hired man's pistol, and thought it a good thing to play with. While he was hand ling the weapon it exploded, the bullet entering the stomach of the little girl, and producing o wound which resulted in deatn at tne end of twenty-two hours. . The Raleigh News and Observer says: Tne compress went regu larly to work yesterday morn and proved the excellence of its machinery by doing first-class pack ing.

A Catskiil special savs : A remarkable accident, particularlv in regard to its re sults, occurred here to-day. Arthur Storv was delivering a barrel of flour at a house near the east end of the- bridge of the West Shore railroad which spans Catskiil creek. The house " is built near the brink of the rock, which has a nrecinitniin descent of more than one hundred feet. The horse took fright and backed sud denly, and, to the indescribable horror of those who witnessed the accident, dis appeared with its driver over the cliff. After falling about half the distance the wagon was caught by the limbs of a tree, the horse hanging head downward sus pended in the air. The driver who had held on to the wagon, now descended the tree, and the horse, by its struggles, broke the harness, and rolling over sev eral times, brought up against the stump of another tree on a narrow ledge of rock. It was brought down with considerable difficulty when further assistance was obtained. Beyond some rather severe cuts and bruises no injury was suffered by either man or beast. : The Augusta Neics gives an ac count of a wonderful phenomena in Aiken, S. C. A few mornings ago it was discovered that a steady rain was falling on two graves in the Aiken cemetery, and fell all day. This very remarkable phenomenon attracted the attention of everybody in that usually quiet town, and hun dreds of people went to see it. lhere was not a cloud to be seen, and the sun shown out brightly all doy. Only the" two graves side by side received any of the rain. The people are greatly mystified at ths occurence. . . . . - A Sad Picture. The death of Mrs. A. T. Stewart, worth in money or its representatives, fifty millions, inspires no particular regrets. The Washington Star thua pictures her unenviable end: "Alone in her great gloomy marble palace, dwithout the pleasures and cares which come with family ties, shunning general society, interested in little that was taking place in the busy world, all her vast possessions failed to raise her life above the dead level of the commonplace, or to rouse in the minds of thoughtful people any other sentiment than wonder that one human being could own so much and enjoy so little." J ant What Tliey All Say. - Hon. D. D. Haynie, of Salem, Bis., says he uses Dr; Bosanko's cough and Lung Syrup in bis family with the most satisfactory results, in all cases of coughs, colds and croup, and recommends it in particular for the little ones.
