Today was Democratic county conven- ion day an 1 the candidate bicd biinacll uptown bright and early to look the ground over ami stick a pin here nud there as needed. The day was "shot to the core with sunshine," a glorious lore runner of that day In November when the Democratic sun will with its power ful rays burn awuy the lowering clouds of Republicanism and "co-operation." At 12 o'clock, at which time the court room wns crowded, Chairman J. I). Murphy rapped for order. He said that with this convention his connection with the Democratic organization asclmirmun of the committee would cease. He re turned bis thanks lor the honors that had been pi iced in I) is bands lor the past two years. Mr. Murphy called Mnj. I). A. Blackwell to uct as temporary chair man of the convention. K. J. Gaston nnd J. Will Jones were ap pointed temporary secretaries. Mnj Itlnckwcll in taking the chair con gratulated Democracy upon the large convention und urged that the Demo crats go straight forward in the line of Democracy and triumph would surely result. E. D. Carter nominated Judge Cbas. . Moore for permanent chairman and Judge Moore was el ctrd by acclama tion. Joseph U. Dickcrson was chi'Siii mr- mnnent secretary by acclamation. 8. I-. Chapman nml Dr. Uuducr es corted Chairman Moore to the chair amid applause. 1 he chairman made a short, feiicitious address to the conven tion and then declared it ready for business. On motion of J.

Carter offered a resolution, the reading of which was cheered, recogniz ing tbc abilities, character, courage and patriotism of lion, lames U. Merrimon, who is prominently mentioned tor United States Senator. The resolution wns unnuimously adopted. Charles N. unee oltered a resolution providing for a primary in Buncombe whereby Democrntscould giveexpression of their preference for two United States Senators, the primary to be held on t lie day ol election. This provoked a lively discussion, I. M. Gudger, E. D. Carter and others opposing it and Mr. Vance luvoring it. The townships were recalled and Mr Vance's resolution was defeated bv a vote of 05Va to 47Vj. A motion by lohn M. Campbell was carried, to go into nominations and mat speeches be limited to one minute. For Repreamiatlve. Nominations then began for the House of Representatives, and I. M. Gudger nominated Col. I. G. Martin, but Col Martin requested the withdrawal of bis name and it was done. W. M. Nettles nominated Mnj. Chat. M.

Amid the applause Mr. Robertson mounted a bench and moved that Mr. Cnthey's nomination be made unanimous. This was carried. Reiclaler of Deeds. What has been considered the tug of war was the next thing to ionic up nominations for the office of Register ol Deeds. Locke Crnig nominated J. I). Brevard; W. H. Hunter, 1. . Mackey; F. M. lones, 1. W. Howell; lohn Lance. T. W. Sbclton. I). M. Luther withdrew the name of S. J. Luther, who had received n number of votes in the primaries. As the roll call progressed E. D. Carter read oil the vote ol th East ward, which dealt largely in HH.trds, but the smile this provoked was Liliputinn beside that following the dis covery that Mr. Carter had picked up tlic wrong piece of paper and bad voted for the West ward. The Hast ward was of course allowed to change its vote.

Last night it was reported that a man had fallen off the train, but he could not he found, although the train was run back some distance and search was made. A man was icportcd n.issing when the train reached one of the sta tions this side ol Hcudeistnville, but passengers who came 011 to Asheville could not tell whether or not he wns found. nKNOVNCKII THK lvnchimu.

The mer chants nnd business men of Memphis held nn indignation meeting last night for the purpose of denouncing the lynch ing of negroes near Millingtou Inst Friday night.

A fund of $10,000 was raised for the widows aud orphans of the murdered men, and a committee was appointed to solicit further subscriptions. Not Cholera. Washington, Sept. 8. The investiga tion instituted by the marine bospitul service in regard to the Bavarian immi grant Walther, who died at Cumberland Md.. with symptoms which the local physicians took to be tbofc of Asiatic cholera shows that it was not a case of cholera at all.

TALKED AT THE DOCTORS ENCROACHING ON PHARMA CISTS)' PRESERVES. Too Maav rtavHlclau. Are lu The Prescription Business, And Tbe Manufacturers Rust Slop It -Tbe Colleges considered. Great fuitb in the boycott ns a menus of defence is entertained by the members of tbc American Pharmaceutical associa tion and another move in the direction of working reforms by this means was taken at this morning's inciting of the druggists. Tbe first boycott agreed 011 by the session was on the manufacturers and agents who sell patent medicines to druggists who cut prices. This morn ing's blow was at the manufucturers who supply physicians direct with man ufactured medicinal produces. It is claimed by thedruggists that year by year the doctors arc getting more and more into the hubit of filling their own prescriptions and dispensing drugs from their own offices. This is claimed to be a great injury to the business of registered druggists, or as it was naivety expressed in the resolution presented by I'rof. Whitney of Massachusetts, "to the great injury of the science of pharmacy," a defense of science evidently being con sidered more praiseworthy than that of 1 he purely commercial question of the sale of goods. The pharmacists believe that physi cians should not interfere with tbe pre scription business and Mr. Whitney's resolution was to condemn the practice and withdraw patronage of members of the association from the manufacturers engaged in furnishing physicians direct with their manufactured products. This resolution went through with a rush, the druggists iii attendance showing that they cnnsiileie 1 this habit of the doctors as being an alarming encroach ment 011 their owu business. At las', night's sessi n ol the scientific section the druggists considered the rather slim recognition that is given by army and navy of the United States to the profession of pharmacy. Attention was called by Dr. I'ayne of Atl inta in a resolution, to the fact that the army and navy do not properly rec'gnize the science as a profession, but on the other hand were inclined to shove it back to a position more meniul even thnn that of department messengers, day labor ers and carpenters. The pharmacists iii the two branches of the ser vice receive $00 n month and have 110 official rank. I'rof. I'avtie quoted figures showing that mnny department clerks draw twice orthrce times us much, messengers get just the same as the pharmacists nnd some laborers get even more. His resoluti n was to authorize the president of the association to ap point u committee to try to make n re form. This committee is to be com posed of a mi inher from each stale, and its duty was to be, to interest tbe phar macists of their respective states so that they would use their influence with their Congressmen nnd Senators for the pas sage of a law placing the pharmacists on the same rank with assistant surgeon. This went through with a vigor that showed the pharmacists to risen t the existing snub ol th: army nnd navy. Tl.c work of this morning's session was taken up Inrgcly by routine work consisting of the rending nnd adoption of various committee reports. The re port of the sejrctnry of the council showed that 178 applications for mem bership had been favorably acted upon and that of this number about 120 bad perf.ctrd their membership by the pay ment of their annual dues. This is nn unusually large accession of membership and is drawn largely from North Cnro- i'in. On the strength of a report and recom mendation from the transportation com mittee it was agreed tbnt hereafter the convention shall be in session nominally for two weeks, so ns to make the ruiUay tickets good tor a longer term. los. Morrison, third vice president of the association, was made delegate to the meeting of the American Public Health association to be held nt Mon treal this month. At last night's session tbe convention got together on the question of the doubtful thoroughness of some of the colleges of pharmacy. It wos finally agreed that tbe committee's substitute for I'rof. Hallberg's resolution, told of in yesterday's Citizi:n, was the one that filled the bill and this was adopted. This resolution cal)s for a committee from the association together with one represent ative from each college, the object being to try to reach some agreement. At the close of today's session, just be fore noon, final adjournment wns taken and most ot the delegates ate dinner in a hurry mid stalled home on the 2.10 train. TWA1 A PLEASANT TRIP. Pharmacia's Go 10 Hoi Wprlugs 011 a Mprclal Train. Yesterday's trip to Hot Springs wns one of the most enjoyable features of the week's gaieties for the visitingdruggists, and that is saying a good deal in view of the lavish way entertainment has been dealt out by the citizens' committee. The trip was made by a special train of six coaches, leaving here at 1:30 o'clock and returning at 7:110. There was 207 peo ple aboard and on reaching tbe Springs thev were feasted by Manager Boden of the Mountain Park hotel. Many of the pharmacists enjoyed a plunge in tbc hot springs.
