There wag a lilicnil sprinkling of the great unwashed in the room, nn interested spectator being cx Congressman Hamilton G. Ewai l. Col, I.usk cautioned the convention against mistakes, declaring that defeat in November could only come from this convention's mistakes. "As the thing stands now," the Colonel asserted," "wc are going to win this fall." lan Rey nolds, sot to voce. "How about Novem ber'" (in motion of Geo. V. Cannon the chair appointed a committee on creden tials, composed of the following dele gates : Avery's Creek, j. I'.. Cochran; Black Mountain, Chris. Glass; Plat Creek, W. C. Ellcr; French Broad, . B. Sams; Pair view, C. L. Jenkins; Leicester, E. West; Limestone, Hin t Drown; Lower Ilominv, G. W. lilalock; Kecms Creek, J. E. Pen lnnd; Sandy Much, 0. -M. Rogers; Swan uauoa, I'. II.

While the committee was out Col. Lusk suggested the reorganization of the county committee. lie said he had held the positioi, of chairman long enough, and Imped to be relieved of that duty. Geo. W. Cannon moved that the dele gates from each township choose one ol their number to serve on the executive committee. The following were se lected : Avery's Creek, I W. Walker; Black Mountain. Jas. Waiker; Henvrrdam. John Masters; East ward, 11. B. Brown; Haw Creek, II. M. Smith: Hazel. as Cowan: West ward, C. I). Wilson; I-hit Creek, I. A. Harris; French Broad, T. C. Gentrv; Fairview, C. L.

Reed; Ivv, L). A. McMahan; LcieeE- ter, W. U. Henderson II. 11. Biown-declined as member Irom Hast ward, and W. W. Rollins was chosen instead. The committee on credentials reported that all precincts were represented with the exception of Biltiiiorc. Uepoit adopted. A committee, composed of W. YY. Rol lins, I. A. Harris and Jos. L. Kav, was appointed on permanent organization. The committee recommended Il.G. Ew wart tor permanent chairman. The rec ommendation ivas adopted, and W, W. Rollins ami I'. H. Folsoin wcreappointed to conduct Mr. Ewart to the chair, lu assuming this distinguished honor Mr. Ewart made a speech in which he re ferred to the republicanism of Henderson county, where, he declared, in some ore cincts there were scaicely enough licmo erats who ectild read and write to act as judges of election. Mr. ICwart made the regulation Republican talk, not even neglecting a profane joke. He predicted that in less than five years America would be manufacturing all the tin she could use; the number of tin manufacto ries in the I'nitcd States today is twentv eight, and constantly increasing. He referred to C rover Cleveland as "a great, big man, physically and mentally," and he had always said so in bis speeches. This admission was greeted bv the Dem ocrats in the room with great cheering. "A great man," Ewart continued, "and an honest one I onlvwishall Democrats were as honest." Then the Republicans cheered. I.wart declared that the Me Ivinley bill had been an incalculable Messing to the country. He assured Democrats that there would lie another C. aJUcil to tiio Democratic nee C's this lall, and that C. would be Calamity. A slight rclcicncc here to his vote against the force bill did not re ceive a whisper ol commendation. 1 he speaker thought it unlair to call the sil ver nueMion a party ijuestion, because there was a great division ot opinion on the question in both parties. He said Capt. M. b. Carter, chairman of the Democratic Congressional committee, had said in an interview, that the people ofthe Ninth district were with Mr. Cleve land on the silver question, If this is true, Ewart said, Capt. Carter ought to take down his Congressional candidate, Mr. Crawford. When Ewart came to the force bill, lie said there never was a deader issue than the Lodge hill. "It is not only dead," he shouted "but it is absolutely putrid. It is not an issue and cannot be an issue. The time will come however, iu my opinion, when the Rcpublicuii party will place upon the statute books some law that will secure absolutely fair elections. 1 opposed the force bill because I believed it would be the worst possible thing for the black man. I have no apohgies to make for my vote. "Negro domination ' Merciful gods ! The idea of any danger ol 175,000 wdiitc meu being dominated bv colored men Shame ! Shame I on anybody w ho would admit that he was afraid of such a thiiiK." Ewart pleaded to the convention ' For God s sake don t nominate any but clean ticket." CjcUlntr Down to Work. At the close ol Ewart s speech, C. 11. Moore was made permanent secretary of the convention. The nomination of two candidates lor representatives was then gone into. K. S. Bull nominated II. C. Hunt of Asheville. T.J. Loltuin nominated W. 11. Henderson of Leicester. W. W. Rob lins nominated V. S. Lusk, ol Asheville. Everybody howled. W. C. Idler nomi nated Dr. I. A.

Worlcy withdrew his name, saying that he hail been a candidate for the nomina tion for sheriff, and had failed, but in tended to run for sheriff of Buncombe just the same, independent. A crowd ot Mr. V orley s friends gather ed round and tried to prevail upon linn to reconsider his determination to run independent, but "Uncle Jack" remained firm, and kept repeating "mean, menu," evidently referring to bis treatment by the convention. The first ballot resulted as follows: West 5 Gudgcr 15 Greenwood 13 Netherton 3 I'aync 15 No choice. Second ballot: Gudgcr 11 2-S Greenwood 0 I'aync 33 (5-8 l'aync's nomination was made unani mous.

The HuirgeMtloii Made lj AiIviHor William Yesterday. Each member of the Advisory commit tee was present in the council room yes terday to attend the meeting of the Joint Board, but none of the Aldermen, except Messrs. Gudgcr and Wadtkll, ap peared and no meeting could be held. Aldermen McDowell, Starncs and Baird were iu Tennessee on committee work in connection w ith the purchase of brick for the city paving. Mayor Blantou read to those present the petition of the l'atton avenue prop erty owners protesting against the pay ing of the avenue with stone. There was no comment on the petition further man judge Greens remark: "Vic rant pave it with stone if they don't want it." Advisor Williams said he would be J glad if the Joint Board would suggest to the Aldermen the idea of passing nn ordinance regulating the width of the tires on the wheels ol the drnjs of the city. On the brick pavement, he said, the narrow tires now used were almost the same as chisels and would soon wear out a brick. He suggested a tire of 3'j or -! inches lor two-horse drays, and 2 inches for one-horse drays. The way to work this change, he suggested, would be to license only such drays as had the regulation tire. Wll.I. NAMIC A TICKHT. The I'rolilbiilonlHts Have Ar ranged for a Convention.
