Not Much Doing in the

The quadrennial trouble about "a suit
able place for the inaugural ball. and
the fact that the only one really suited
for this purpose-the Pension OHce-can
only be had by virtue of special en-
actment of Congress, emphasizes once
again the necessity for the erection in
Washington of building that viii ans
wer every requirement OF the largest
gathering likely 10 be held here.
This includes, of course, the cere-
monies and festivities incident 10 the
Inauguration Of the President; the great
conventions Of bodies of national i'm
porfdnce that look with steadily in
Creasing favor upon the national capi-
tai as the most appropriate city for
assemblages of this sort, and celeb-a-
tions of either local or national charac-
ter that attain TO any degree of mag

position which has recently advanced
and which already has found much ia
vor I'm the minds of people who have
given Thought 10 the subject. is also
taken into consideration in this connec-
ton.

AsHEvILLy, N. c.. June 1.-The Demo-
cratic primary for the Bnncombe county
convention, which was held Saturday.
has resulted In somewhat OF a mix-up
in regard to the method OF counting the
votes on the legsat tive ticket. The Dues
ton at issue is whether votes for the
candidates from the city OF Asheville
should be counted Independently OF the
votes for the candidates for the Legisla-
ture from the county, or whether the
votes Of all candidates should be grouped.
The result of Saturdays voting indicates
that J. D Murphy. representing the city
OF Ashevile, and j. Frazier Glenn, repre-
senting the county. will undoubtedly be
nominated on the first ballot at the Bun
conbe county convention, which will be
held Saturday next

bent, has been renominated for the office
OF sheriff and Captain A. B. Fortune
for register OF deed. j. Kelly Chambers

nominated for the State Senate by m
