Our merchants who deal in fireworks, crackers, and other explosives, are pre paring to supply "the boys" with all the material necessary for making i bis racket" on Christmas. Six weeks of almost continuous pleas ant sunny weather has just been enjoyed by Ashevillians and our visitors. We can justly ooasc oi a aeiignxiui cumaie at this season of the year. r Dr. J. M. Spainhour has been ap pointed by Governor Fowle a delegate to represent Caldwell county inj the Inter-State Immigration Convention to meet at Asheville on Dec. 17th. Now is the time to plant your holiday advertisement in The Democrat if you wish to reap a golden harvest. The Democrat is read by more people than any other paper in Western Carolina. Col. H. C. Hunt writes us he will be stationed at Covelo California, instead of Round Valley. His associates on the commission are most agreeable gentle men, and Col. H. says he anticipates a very pleasant stay in that country. The fountain of perpetual youth was one of the dreams of antiquity. It has been well-nigh realized in Ayer's Sarsa- parilla, which purifies the blood, gives vitality to all bodily functions, and thus restores to age much of the vigor and freshness of youth. Governor Fowle has pardoned Adolph Wilson and Woody Wilson, sons of "Big Tom" Wilson, of Yancey county. They were convicted of assault with a deadly weanon and sentenced to six months imprisonment, with $200 fine each. They are pardoned on payment of the fine "Big Tom" is the famous trapper and guide in charge of Col. Murchison's great mountain estate. uOOl DOL CHRISTMAS GOODS TILL Gov. Fowle has appointed Col.

He says he will have : them ready for delivery in a few aayg.j . The Asheville stores are beginning to assume a holiday appearance, and the sightseers are turning out in full force to view the many attractive things set forth by our enterprising merchants. The display this year promises to eclipse all former seasons. Rev. A. C. Roberson celebrated his 77th birthday on the 22d ult., in Sandy Mush township, by taking a pleasant ride through the township with his friend J. M. Capps. It was a pleasant day, and the venerable man enjoyed the occasion very greatly. Tne stockholders of the W. N. C. R. R, held their annual meeting in this city a few days ago. All the directors were re-elected, Col. J. W. Cooper, of Chero kee, taking the vacancy created by the death of Col. W. E. Anderson. This is an excellent selection. "I use Ayer's Cherry Pectoral freely in my practice, and recommend it in cases of whooping cough among chil dren, having found it more certain to cure that troublesome disease than any other medicine I know of," so says Dr. Bartlett, of Concord, Mass. President J. C. Caldwell, of "the N. C. Press Association, has appointed Mr. Robert Haydn, of the Charlotte Chron icle, and Dr. W. C. Murphy, of the Bur gaw Herald, delegates to the Inter-State Immigration Convention, to meet'in this city on the 17th-19th insts. Two excel lent selections. Our esteemed friend D. K. Collins, EsqM of Bryson City, one of the clever est and most successful merchants and citizens of Western Carolina, was mar ried recently to a lady in Georgia.

We certainly congratu late1 both parties; and wish them a long life of happiness. The two show windows in Field's jew elry store have been replaced by one large window, and another story has been added. The work-room will be moved up stairs, thus giving all the lower floor to the display of goods. Mr. Field promises to show a handsome j"stock of goods when his improvements are com- jpleted. Grant's drag store is also un- dergping a change. A large, handsome plate glass window baa taken the place of the smaller ones, and the place is otnerwise Deing improveu. J. Lais, ToiletlSets.

Clingman in which he referred to the report that a large sum of money was to be used by Ewart to buy votes, and the General said that if a white man sold his vote for less than fif teen hundred dollars, he would put him self below the negro slave in old times, etc. As the speech was generally copied by many papers we need not go into de- tail as to it. A reliable gentleman said that after the election Mr. Ewart stated to him that this speech did him more harm than any other, and that it had caused his defeat. In confirmation of this view we may state that Gen. R. B. Vance says that after its publication he referred to it in all his speeches, and that nothing he could say produced such a shout among his auditors. These statements seem to show that our fellow citizens are opposed to the use of1 money for bribery in elections, and we trust that proper efforts will be made throughout the country to put an end to bribery in cur elections. The W. N. C. Conference. The Western North. Carolina Confer ence held its first session in Concord last week, Bishop Jno. C. Keener presid ing.

J. S. GRANT, Ph. G., Pharmacist, 24 S. Main St. AsheviUe C. Looking Backward Over the past eight years of our successful business life in Ashe ville has demonstrated to us the fact that our determination to sell only pure goods, guarantee- ing weights and quality, and askinsr a small profit On every- thiner sold, commends itself to fh pnRft f TOirfthaRfir , , . f . Second, mat desirable CUS- tomers cannot be gamed by the oft - tried practice Of some deal- ers m cutting prices on a few loaHi'ncr nrtinlaa Innnino- tn malro it up on something else. That hard work and close ap plication to business is the price of success. That our business for 1889 shows an increase over the pre- viousyear of 20 per cent., which is very erratityinc:, ana ior which we wish to thank our many friends in Asheville and Western North Carolina.
