tie state just before the late war; as a
clerk in the office of the comptroller, and
i'll 1865 became chief clerk of the treas
ury department, by appointment of the
Hon. Jonathan Worth, then provisional

ter time by acclamation and without OPP

term
Mr.. Balm has perhaps as large a per-
sonal and political acquaintance in the
state as any other man in it, and he
ought to bc proud of such record as he
has always had Tor integrity and faith
ulncss to his state and its people. His
successful administration of the affairs
of the treasury has been that of the
thorough business man. Besides his po-
sition as state treasurer he has been since
February, 1867, the grand secretary of
the grand lodge of Masons of North
Carolina. He is also prominent in the
state and general councils of his church.
the Methodist Episcopal. Since 1883 he
has been secretary of the North Carolina
annual conference, and has twice, in
1856 and 1890, been one of the represen-
tatives at the great meetings of the gen
eral conference. He is also member of
that other powerful benevolent order,

Rev. Henry Wcstall, pastor Of the
Church Of the Good Shepherd, Ter
scy City, n. j., arrived in Asheville yes
terday afternoon. and will spend his
summer vacation with his father, Maj.

pleasant call this morning. He was
for several years pastor of Il
Unitarian church in BloomiI gton,
Ill.,, the home of Adlai Z. Stevenson,
the nominee for vice-president on the
democratic ticket. Mr.. Westallis close
friend of Mr.. Stevenson, and is greatly
pleased at the choice of the convention

pecially as to Mr.. Stevenson, knowing
him as we'll as he does.
"Mr. Stevenson" Mr.. Westall said, "is
an excellent candidate, not only for
availability but socially, morally and
every other way. He is a strong man
even with the republicans Of Blooming
ton, having overthrown the republican
majority in that district on more than
one occasion, turning the district into
the democratic column. There is not a

CisiOn This Morning.

CONGRESSIONAL.
II Looks Like Adjournment is
Close at Hand

WASHINGTON, July LIN the house to-
day Hatch called up the conference re-
port on the agricultural appropriation
bill and demanded the previous question
upon its adoption. The previous qucs-
ton was ordcrcd-ycas, 16S, nays, 46,
and the report was agreed to. This is
the first acncral appropriation bill which
has finally passed the house. The floor
was then accorded to the committee on
labor. Mr.. Tarsney, Of Missouri, called
up and the house passed the senate bill
granting thirty days leave of absence to
employees OF the government printing
Office.
Mr.. Tarney then called up the bill to
enforce the provisions of eight hour law.
Tarsney explained that the proposed leg
islation was to make effective the law of
1865. The bill, he said, extended the
benefits of the eight hour law in plain
terms to lahorcrs in the employ of con-
tractors on government works. 1T made
it unllwtul to allow or permit a laborer
to work more than eight hours, thus pro-
hibiting evasion in the manner i'll which
the act of 1865 had been avaded, and in
imposed proper penalties for its wilful
violation.
The senate has voted to adjourn from
today till Tuesday. Mr.. Mcpherson
withdrew his request for the privilege of
addressing the senate on the silver bill
and he also withdrew any and Ill objec-
tions expressed or implied to the order
of the senate. He should offer no objec-
ton and no dilatory motion and should
do nothing to interfere with carrying
into effect the order of the senate. An
attempt was made to agree upon some
future time when vote shall be taken
on the silver bill, but owing to the
absence of Mr.. Morgan the matter went
over without agreement being reached,
The conferees on the river and harbor
bill have reached a complete agreement.

KNIGHTS OF HONOR
A Pleasant Celebration of the Or.
der'S Anniversary.

Nearly 200 members and friends OF
Swannanoa lodge No. GIG, Knights of
Honor, met in Hilliard hall last evening
to take part in the celebration of the
nineteenth anniversary Of the Knights of
Honor.
The exercises were opened with sing
ing, followed by J. ]. Hill i'll an ad-
dress on the workings of the order
since its organization nineteen years ago
in Louisville, Ky. Mr.. Hills address
was comprehensive and enjoyed by all
present.
An address was also delivered by P.
A. Cummings, referring more particu-
larly to the work done by the Ashevile
lodge. This lodge was organized Octo-
Der 10, 1877, with seventeen charter
members. Since that time there have
been 102 members, at one time, but de-
Quoting for suspensions, Withdrawals by
card, and deaths, the membership now
stands at 81. Since the lodge was Or
ganized there has been paid into the su-
preme lodge, in the way of assessments,
$19,352 25. There has been, including .
claim now under adjustment, paid back
by the supreme lodge for death bene-
i fits, 100000, making balance
in favor OF the lodge of $647,75. The
members who haye died paid into the
widows and orphans fund So ,455 80,
while the family of each of them havere-
ceived $4,000.
The supreme lodge, at its last session
in May, adopted new grade OF assess
ments for all new members who join
after July |, and limiting assessments on
new members to one per month for the
first six months, and to two for the next
eighteen months.
At the close of Mr.. Cummings address
w. Summers gave talk on the order
of the Knights and Ladies of Honor,
an organization similar to the Knights
of Honor, which ladies are allowed to
join.
When the literary part of the program
was disposed Of those present repaired
to the banquet room, where refreshments
in tie shape of ice cream, cake, lemonade,
fruits, nuts, etc, were served.
The evening was delightfully."- spent by
all and the order will long be pleasantly
remembered by everyone who partici-
pated in the evenings entertainment.
A quantity of the refreshments were
not used, and these were sent today to
t he Childrens Home to gladden. the
hearts of the little ones.

HON. H. q, EwART.
He Does Not Like the Force Bill
Plank.

Ex-Congressman II. G. Ewart, who is
in Ashevlle as one of the counsel of
Charles ]. Harris in the habeas corpus
case, said to THE CITIZEN yesterday that
he was not in politics now.
At the district republican convention
recently held in Asheville to send dele
gates to the national republican conven-
ton, it will be remembered that Mr..
Ewart rcasserted his opposition to the
passage of the force bill. Mr.. Ewart
went so far on that occasion as to say
that he did not think the republicans
could win on the force bill issue.
The national platform adopted at
Minneapolis, making the force bill the
leading issue in the campaign this fall, is
not satisfactory to Mr.. Ewart.
"Unless President Harrison construes
the force bill plank to mean genera
election law, and not the Lodge bill, said
Mr.. Ewart, 81 shall not ford many
swollen streams or cross any dangerous
bridges in order to get to the polls to
vote in November"
Mr.. Ewart took occasion to say that
he thought Green B. Raum, commissioner
of pensions, as well as some other prom
inent republicans. was not anxious to
build up a reputable party i'll the south,
and as evidence of the truthiulness of his
position he referred to lurid book writ
ten or compiled by Raum pretending to
give list of the outragcs pcrpctratcd in
the south.
"The greater portion of these out
RACES" said Mr.. Ewart, "are cases OF
lynching for rape, and have no political
significance, but Raum would have the
public believe that they are all political
in their nature"
1t may be said with safety that Mr.
Ewart's republicanism at the present mo
mcnt is not of the enthusiastic type.
