EARLY PRIMARY THE DECISION
Harmony the keynote of the Bun
cOmbc Executive Committee
Meeting.

Asheville, n. c., April 7.--Harmony
was the keynote at the meeting of
the Democratic county executive COM
mittee today. the session passing off
with no evidence of differences which
are likely to result in a rupture.
There was q difference of opinion as
to the best time for holding the pri-
maries, but June first was selected.
| which was practically a victory for
the advocates of an early primary. 1t
is now more evident that the local
issues which have divided the party
Will be brushed aside, and hat 4
united and harmonious party will so
to the polls in the next election.
The meeting was called to order
shortly afternoon. and Chairman j.
J.. Mackey. who led the fight two
wears ago. rendered his resignation,
Louis III Bourne being chosen to
succeed him. The n of nomi-
mating candidates for the county and
legislative offices was then gone into.
and the committee unanimously de-
cided in avor of a legalized primary.
During the discussion, state senator
Charles A.. Webb. who secured the
passage of the law, briefly explained
it's provisions. pointing out what he
believed to be its advantages over the
convention. The selecting OF Il date
for holding the primary was then
gone into, and Alderman William
Franci moved that the time be fixed
at the last Saturday in August, point
ing out what he considered to be the
advantages of z late primary. AS an
amendment Mr.. Webb moved the date
be fixed ut June 1st, saving in Support
of his amendment that otherwise Il
primary TO nominate COUNTY c2ndi-
dates and another to select delegates
to the congressional and judiciary on
yentiOnS would be necessary. and that
the holding of two primaries would
be undesirable. Air. Bourne then adj
vocated as q substitute for Mr..
Francis motion that a primary be
held TO select delegates to the State,
Congressional and judiciary COnVen-
tons on une 23rd. and another to
nominate candidates for county Of
fees on August nth. On a vote Mir.
WebO'S amendment calling for June

Dressmakers and Cooks.

Y + "
There once was a lady who always was
worried,
by costume and kitchen her days were
kept Hurried:
The cooks that she hired, without notice
were quitting,
And dressrnakers irked with her changes
and fitting
She never knew music, or drama, or
books,
Her life was made up Of dressmakers
and cocks.
Her patience was tried and her temper
was tested,
She never had peace and she never got
rested,
For when d new cook began basting and
skiinming
She had to rush out to get houncing and
trimming:
She babbled Of dishes, Of eyes and Of
hooks
She lired-in a world Of dreasmakers and
cooks.
The cook would mp ana walk out III
Il passion,
And then her last dress would 70 clear
ont Of fashion,
and then fof week she was hunting
and slopping
Until nom fatigue and despair she was
dropping.
She hunted in highways and byways and
hooks,
Wherever there might be dressmakers
and faals
Her visage grew thin, her complexion
grew sallow
And bloodless, and something the color
OF tallow;
Her hair grew a. stringy and lacking
IN lustre
As any old secondhand, bargsin.sale
dpster
She got 80 she cared not 4 whit for her
lonks
Her only concern was dressnakers and
cooks.
.At Lass she Iay down sick at heart ana
defeated.
And with her last breath these remarks
she repeated;
~The world that I've known is bother.
Ell and yexed one
Whatever it is. III be glad in the next
one.
For from what have heard Of the ways
Of the spook
They never have use for dressmakers or

SCAR FACED CHARLEY

There were eight Of lis outside and

TO pull UP. think an four OF us on
top OF the coach made motion for our
guns, but the driver yelled at us:
Stop that, you cussed fools DO you
want to be blown to kingdom Conner"
Scar Face was at that time man of
about thirty, rather picturesquely Mt
tired. and, as he was clean shaven. he
looked more like d faro man than a
highway robber There was d smile
on his face MS he looked up, but some
thing warned you that it was smile
that could come OF mighty sudden If

look into the coach and then stepped
back and said:
Now, gentlemen, let's have no fuss

OF course, the lady Is not included"
None Of rs saw a chance to get in a
shot while we were lining up. and once
on the ground it was too late. He pass

shooters and tossed them into the
bushes. The driver was permitted to
retain his seat. He had no treasure

COnciliates Spain at Confer
ence by Repudiating Settlers
ON MOROCCAN COAST
Cruiser After Surveillance
Of Trade in contraband Arms Like
" to Precipitate Lively
Debate.

Algericas, SPAIN Jan. 10. During the
Iul preceding the opening Of discussion
at the international conference on Mo-
roccan reforms, France has taken effec-
tive means to cement the union Of the
Mediterranean powers This had been
somewhat threatened by SPANS resent
ment Of The French cncroachment upon
the Spanish military posts near Ceuta,
on the Moroccan coast.
One Of the chief Spanish strOngholds
ia at Melilla, near the French Algerian
frontier. Recently band of adyentur-
Gus Frenchncn undertook sort of
Jameson movement, establishing head
quarters at Chica, near Mclilla. Their
position il exceptionally advantageous,
commercially and strategetically, as CHI.
ca commands a vast lagoon penetrating
into northern Morocco.
The French government desclaimed re-
sponsibility for the intrusion, but Spain
continued suspicious Of the design to
establish a French base on the Moroccan
coast. This caused noticeable tension
in Franeo-Spanish relations. France
was evidently determined to avert the
danger Of losing the support Of Spain
at the conference, for it is understood
that the French cruiser Lalande, which
has been lying on AigeclTas and left
here hastily Wednesday to patrol the
coast OF Melilla to Chica, has orders to
undertake the expulsion Of the French
establishment at Chica. on the ground
that the Frenchmcn who landed there
are party Of free hooters, woh have
not the support of the French govern
ment.
This has ELECTED expressions Of the
heartiest approval from the Spanish rep.
resentatiycs and iRsures the continuance
Of Spnin's support of France and the
endurance Of the union of the Mediter-
ranean powers during the conference.
The question Of the surveillance Of
the trade in contraband arms promises
to develop sharp differences Of opinion.
Germany has already stated that she
would not consent to any surveillance
which would permit foreign warships to
detain. board md examine German ships.
The German i,les is that naval patrols
are unnecessary, as the surveillance of
the trade in contraband arms can best
be had BY land patrols.
The open door policy il accepted en-,
thusiastically by an, especially by
France hI Revolt, head Of the French
mission, said
