The Wilson Advance. Entered in the Post Office at Wilson, N. C, as second class mail matter. WILSON, N.C., - Dec. ioth, 1891. Good morning, Mr. Speaker Crisp ! Bill Arp's letter is unusually good this week. ,We are proud of his grand words. We publish the address of the Committee of Ten this week. It is an able, pacific paper, wise and judi cious. We fail to see why Mr. Bell could not sign it ; because it seems to us every good and patriotic man in the State can. heartily subscribe to its principles, the substance of which is summed up in the words : "Let us dwell together m peace, unity and harmony; we be brethren."- A CRISP DAY.

(SPECIAL cor. the advance.) Washington, Dec, 7th, 1891.

My opinion is there will be a break in the Mills column for Crisp, thus electing Crisp and insuring for Mills the Chairmanship of the Ways and Means Committee and the passage of a tariff bill to suit the low tariff apostle from the Lone Star State. This opinion is based on the judge ment of the ablest and shrewdest member of our delegation to whom I always g-o for advice when matters get too mixed up for 'me. And they were, and still are in an awful mud dle. Yesterday the headquarters ol the various candidates suggested the New" York stock exchange. All was bustle and excitement. The position of Speaker of the House is perhaps second in power and importance to the Presidency. The Speaker ..not only controls vast patronage but he has tremendous power in shaping legislation. I can not blame' an ambitious man ior working unceasingly for the honors and responsibilities incident to the place. The figures given above show Judge Crisp to be in the lead. The compromise hinted at above was agitated yesterday by the safest of the party leaders and unless some stubborn fellow thwarts it. the nrn. gramme outlined will be carried out by the caucus now balloting behind closed doors. The North Carolina delegation met on Friday and unanimously en dorsed Crisp for Speaker and Mc Clammy for - postmaster of the House. . The delegation has steadily and firmly supported Crisp. If he is elected, the three more experienced members of the delegation ought to be made chairmen ol the Committees. These three senior members are Messrs. Henderson, Cowles, and Bunn, all good and able men and capable of filling any position within the gift of. the Speaker. The new members, Messrs. Alexa Crawford, Grady, and Williams have all made fine impresions, and I con gratulate the State of North Carolina on having one of the ablest delega tions, as a whole, she has had since the war. In the Senate. Ransom snH V , wA . MHVV are lacile pnnceps in their respective specialties. Our distinguished senior Senator, M. W. Ransom, never introduced a bill nor asked for an ap propriation in vain. Wherever the material prosperity or the political advancement of his State are concern ed, he is always on the alert, and never fails to carry his point. By his courtesy, suavity, and conservative diplomacy, he manages the leaders among his Republican opponents. His high character as a statesman, uauonai reputation as a wise far sighted, political leader, give' the measures he advocates an open sesame with his colleagues on the Democratic side of the Senate cham ber . Our junior Senator, Zebulon B Vance, is in Europe, but will beat home in time to take his seat when the real work of the session begins He is one of the readiest and most effective orators on either side of the Capitol and is almost -as popular here . as he is among his own people. He will be the leader in the tarift debate of the coming winter. Capt. S. B. Alexander is one of the most - distinguished looking men in ine nouse and comes from rarely gilted stock on both sides of his house His mother was a sister of non. wm. A. Graham and his pater nal ancestors were well represented among the signers of the Mecklen burg Declaration of Independence, a document in whose genuineness I have always believed. I do not often risk my reputation as a prophet on a new member of Congress, but I under take to oredict that that if Svdenham B. Alexander remains in Congress six years, he will be second to no man on the floor of the House. In physique and bearing he is the peer of the best. If he will work and study, and -beware of that epidemic which rages in Washington every winter and which is known as "the swell head," there is a brilliant future in store" for him. I am -very glad too, lor his sake, that the great mass of ReDresentative farmers have elimi- nated that heresy called the "Third Party" from his future Democratic creed. I presume he is both a first class farmer and at the same time a first-class Democrat. As such, he can wield a great influence for good for his constituency. Hon. A. H. A. Williams, the other more prominent new member, is a younger brother of Col. Henry G. Williams, of your city, and the nephew and namesake ol the late A H. Arrineton whose record in Con gress is still remembered with pride by many ol your Democratic readers. He has manv relatives in and around your locality and it would be a work ol superrogation lor me to attempt to give an estimate of "Baldy Wil liam's" capabilities. His reputation as a practical business man, as a safe politician of extraordinary executive ability already belongs to the history ot JNorth Carolina. He will stay here as long as he wishes to, and his constituents would act wiselv if thev would begin praying now that he may aesire to remain. The other three new members are well spoken of by those who have met them. The presence of ex-Postmaster General Dickinson in the lobby of the House Saturday night during the eaucus was a subject ol much gossip yesterday, many members asserting that he wras looking after the interests ol Mills as the personal representative of ex-President Cleveland. It was rumored last night that Daniel S. Eamont, Cleveland s lormer private secretary, was in the city, but he could not be found. The new York Times yesterday morning stated that Senator Gorman occupied the Speaker's room on Saturday, and from there assumed control ol the Crisp canvass. Sena tor Gorman said last night that he was not in the Capitol buildine ves- terday ; that he has not visited any of the headquarters or any ol the can didates since the contest began and that he has taken no hand whatever in the fight. A counter attraction to the Speak ership stuggle, though not of such excititing interest, will be the meeting of the national executive committee of the Democratic party, which will take place at the Arlington Hotel at 1 1 o'oclock to-morrow morning. The prime object of the meeting is to designate the time and place of call ing a session ot the lull national Dem ocratic committee, which will deter mine the time and place of holding the convention for the purpose of nominating Democratic candidates for the Presidency and Vice Presidency. Senator Calvin S. Brice, of Ohio, who is chairman of the national com mittee as well as ot the executive committee, arrived at the Arlington last night, and so did Lieut. Gov. elect, Sheehan, of New York, Hon. Arthur Sewall, of Maine, and Hon. Michael Doran, of Minnesota, mem bers of the committee. St. Paul, Minnesota, has a deleeation of influ rial citizens already here to "boom" tnat city. 1 think some city in the Northwest will certainlv be chosen and that the time for the meeting of tne committee to decide that point, will be held earlv in Tanuarv.

I do not see how they can refuse to pay this LU me memory ol the founder ui me uoidsboro and Wilmington Messenger.
