uient. containing number OF ficti-
tious names with heavy black lines to
guide Democratic voters and with no

IS COMING HERE
ANNUAL MEETINGS OF TWO
g. a. g" ~ n,
LARGE ASSOCIATIONS TO BE
+ ,xst
HELD THERE.

Two Of the largest conventions to
be held in the United States will very
likely come to Richmond this year.
Business Manager Dabney returned
this morning from New York city
reports that the annual meetings Of
the Retail Druggist Syndicate and
OF the American Electric Street Rail-
way Association win almost certainly
come TO Richmond in 1911.
The Druggist Syndicate had prao-
ucally decided to go to Chicago this
year for Its annual meeting. but after
hearing the glowing accounts Of Rich
mond as a convention city. have taken
the matter under advisement and is
likely to change from Chicago to
Richmond.
IL this Is not done the convention
for next Year will certainly come to
Richmond, said Mr.. Dabney.
At the meeting Of the general COM
mittee of the Electric Railway Asso-
citation a special committee was APP
pointed to visit several cities and re-
port back to the general committee It's
recommendations. One OF the condi-
lions of this meeting is that 100, 900
square feet OF floor space must be-
furnished for display Of exhibits.
Much more space than ia wanted
can be furnished in the exposition
buildings at the fair grounds and It
liz Mr. Dabney's opinion when the
special committee gets to Richmond
and looks over the buildings that they
win recommend coming here.
= Mr.. Dabney said the Metropolitan
press gave Richmond splendid notices
reporting the meetings held there.
