elector lor the ninth distr'ct; the nomina
tion of a candidate for judge for the
twelfth judicial district; the nomination
ol two candidates for the slate senate
from the thirty-third senatorial district,
under the new apportionment by the
last legislature.
In view of the multiplicity ol the work
to be done, it was not surprising that a
large crowd filled the court house at the
ringing ol the bell a few minutes before
la-o'clock.
One side of the court room was set
apart for the "brother in black," show,
ing that the average North Carolina re
publican draws the line everywhere ex
cept at the ballot box. The office-holders
were very conspicuous. Postmaster
Cannon (without nnv barb-wire trim
mines) and Deputy United States Clerk
Moore were apparently general superin
tendents and busied themselves during
the assembling of the convention putting
up tickets on poles showing the scats of
the various delegations.
R. O. Patterson of Governor's Island
Swain county, chairman of the congrcs
sional committee, was not present, and
the convention was called to order by
Geo. Tl. amatbers, ol Haywood, a mem
ber of the executive committee. Mr
Smiitlicrs announced Col. V. S. Lusk of
Asheville as temporary chairman.
Lusk Was so Surprised
Lol. Lusk said the honor was n sur
prise, and if he was not like Julius Ct
sar, he would be scared. He was always
ready to forward the interests of tbe re
publican party. In the kindness of prov
idence tbe republican party had leen
spared to make another fight for tbe
right. This year would crown the re
publican party with success, unless all
signs failed. He said the convention had
met not only to nominate a candidate
for congress, but to promulgate another
Mecklenburg declaration of independence
similar to that proclaimed one hundred
years ago. lie denounced the county gov
eminent system. The republicans of
zation reported as follows: CM. Face
of Henderson, permanent chairman; K.
B. Roberts of Buncombe, permanent sec
retary. Mr. Pace weighs about 225 pounds.
He said that there were some things
that he always refused to do, ""and one
of those things are, I never make a speech,
because I can t. There are other things
that I never refuse to do, and ore of
those are to preside over a republican
convention."
On motion the convention adjourned
till 2:30.
Afternoon Session.
The convention re-assembled with Chair
man Pace in the chair.
J. M. Moody, of Haywood, moved
that the convention proceed to nominate
candidate for congress for the ninth
congressional district.
The counties were called, and there
was no stop till Madison county was
reached. When that county was cnlled,
Willie Hunter arose and presented the
name of Jeter C. Pritchard, of Madison.
The nomination speech was full of flow
ers of rhetoric.
Col. V. S. Lusk seconded the nomina
tion of Mr. Pritchard on behalf of Bun
combe county.
C. T. C. Icake, who seconded the nom
ination of Pritchard, said he had been
n republican since 1856, and that he had
been largely responsible for Jeter Pritch
ard's republicanism, and he considered
it the crowning glory of his life.
I. M. Moor v. ol Haywood, scconuca

All A Caucus Held.
Washington, August 3. In the sen
ate this morning there were very few
senators present when the session open
ed; nor did there appear to be any press
ure of business before the body. A reso
lution offered by Mr. Pettigrew calling
on the secretary of war for a report as
to all army officers who have been tried
by court martial during the past ten
years, their rank, offence, verdict render
ed, punishment imposed, was referred to
the committee on military affairs.
In the house filibustering over the
World's fair appropriation was resumed
and no miorum voting on n motion to
take a recess, the house then adjourned
and a democratic caucus was announced
for 2 o'clock.
An agreement has wen reached as to
the World's fair, on this basis: The
house sh.ill vole down the Bingham mo
tion and shall reconsider its action on
the sundry civil bill. The senate $5,000,-
000 World's fair amendment shall be disj
agreed to, and the bill sent back to a
conference with the bouse, insisting that
this item shall be eliminated from the
sundry civil hill. The Durborow World's
fair bill shall be taken up and on Au
gust 6, Saturday, shall be voted on.
The amount carried by the bill, however,
shall, before the vote, be reduced Irom
$5,000,000 to $2,500,000. and made a
direct gift.
All the members of the committee ex
cept Durborow voted fortheagreemcnt.
Durborow voted against it. The com
mittee simply submits the agreement to
the caucus and members are not bound
to vote in favor ol the Durborrw bill.
They simply agree, if the caucus adopts
the proposition, not to filibuster against
it and each man reserves the right to

North Carolina, said Mr. Lusk, were
taxed without representation. He said
that there had not been n fair election in
North Carolina for 15 years. They
wanted to establish what had rJccn
destroyed by the democracy of
North Carolina, a free ballot and
a fair count, and it made
no difference what the people's party or
the prohibition party might no, tli re
publican party would never stop until this
right was restored. 1 he lorcc lull was
false issue in this campaign. The demo
crats of North Carolina had a force bill
ten thossnnd times more tyrannous than
any ever framed by Lodge or any other
member of congress, and thev enforce it
not only at the ballot box but in the jury
box, and it was m the shape ol the
Payne election law, introduced lour
years ago. It was not passed, because
there were some honest democrats then,
but thev hud all gone over to the third
party now. Mr. Lusk divulged the fact
that he was in favor of dropping this
force bill talk, and if the democrats
would irijcal the Payne law as passed,
he would give his word that no force
bill would be attempted. There was
sonic doubt expressed among the demo
crats as to the value of Col. Lusk's guar
antee.
