The night was not "at all favorable to get ting out a large number of people, a? a heavy rain fell all the evening, but that very fact tended to impress more vividly on tfce persons jinterestekl the im portance of good roads. Aboilt twenty gentlemen who are interested1 in this movement were present, and after some random discussion, the associat o: was formed and a constitution adopied. Dr. C. Lr. Minor, G. F. Weston, A. M. Iield and J. JR. Dubose all spoke; forcibly regarding the need of road improvement and the possibility of accomplishing U. Mr. Duff Merrick spoke in' favor of not confining the work to pleasure drives and patching, but to start . popular movement which should stimulate or force the county l cbmmissiqnrs and board of aldermen of Asheville to do the needed work, . During Mr Merrick's speech a joint of order was made several times, on the ground that he was not talking on the section, of the constitution under discus sion. Finally he gave up and left the meeting, but his influence was largely felt, and the name and purpose of the society was changed to a brbader con struction. Its purpose therefore will jMto improve the roiaulsj.axid - plsasure ortvesv -.. of ' Asheville and j Buncombe .coB..:4CaatKvlslto... and residents mayimsror te, ppotariJtyl use them wtth son deTee- comfort. The fofflowtttg gentlemen pledged themselves as members of the society: B. H. Cosby, J. R. DuBose John A. RoebKnsr, G. P. Wrtton, B. .M. JonesJ, H. p. Chiids, J. A. Burroughs, C. L. Mtaon Frank. Ixmghran Wm. John Bon. W. F. Snyder, A. M. Ffelds EL C. Chambers, A. A. Jones, J. A. Nichols, T. W. Raoul, Charles MoNamee, J. T. Reagan. Although some money will be obtained by the initiation fees and dW or the members, subscriptions wMj eDe asked for from all who are interested. The object, further, is to start a popular sen- tament in this direction. Then wbon the sentiment Is strongs enough, the iawl providing for bo i ding county may be voted on. J. R. Dubose brought up this state law, which seems to have 'been neglected. It is to be effect jha on a pe tition of twenty-five per cent, of the voters of Buncombe county, the county commissioners must call an election to vote on the proposition to bond the coun ty for $100,000 for the Improvement of the roads. This act seems to have never been (taken advantage of and at is hoped by the society to create a senti ment In favor of this act, o 4t may be carried into effect. I. The farmer is especially remem bered by the society, as It provides for free membership for people - outside of Asheville, thus giving them a vote on tfie nmnagement of the wjork done on the roads, without making1 them any (Continued oar fifth pace.)

Mr. Walker spoke of Ms efforts for currency reform as a member of the committee on bank ing and currency, and said that he had worked almost single handed. He severely arraigned his colleagues for j not recognizing Congress main, Linney by placing him on the committee. He said Mr. Linney was practically the only republican m-ember from the south and yet he had been studiously snub bed because he had an opinion of hi owa" about the currency of the country. He would no commit himself as favor. ing the ideta of restricting the currency of the country.

Italy's Demaad for a Naval Base and Sphere of Influence. Belief Strang, htited That Salisbury has Abandon ed Open Door Policy The Approaching Tragedy of tL closing Century in the Ancient Oriental Empire. Laffan cable dispatch to the Gazette. London, March 4. Italy's demand for a naval base and sphere of influence in China is universally interpreted in Europe as another important . move to ward the partition of the empire. It is known that Italy consulted with the British government before making the demand at Pekin. " i Those who are convinced that Salis bury has abandoned the open door poli cy, are strength &rhi in their beliei by this incident, and if they are right, then the doom of China is sealed and its de struction will be not much longer de layed, for the East will be the scene of a most dramatic tragedy during the close of the century.
