Had MrMerlBSly OtMftprared la Corroborate Bjr Ai Editorial la Ilia Owk Paper. The report, that Mr. Wilson, of the Wilson Advance, had disap peared, is now vouched for by an nanouncement in his own paper. The whole affair is a mystery. The Standard learns that there was probably some matters not herein mentioned that influenced Mr. Wil son to take this step; but we took him to be stronger than that His own paper sajs this: The readers of The Advance will regret to know that Mr. Clande F Wilson, who has ben editor of this paper has left Wilson. The cirs enmstances of his departure are shrouded in mystery. He left Wil son Suiiday morning, October 30tb, on the 3 o'clock train, without tell . ing any one that he was going, and went to Weldon. He has not since been heard from acd there was at first much fear that he bad come to an untimely end. But it 13 now bes ieyed that he departed deliberately for some cause that is not yet fully explained. He owed some debts, but his creditors were not pressing him and he had friends who would , have gladly assisted him in any fi nancial stress. A few weeks ago he received a note, said to be from Gideon's Band, threatening his life. Some think that this so frightened him that he became temporarily crazed, and while in this condition, he took the train and went away to escape tne tnreareneu aeain. we hazard no gues at the cause of his sudden and unexplained departure, hoping that the reason advanced that he was suffering from tempo rary insanity may turnout to be the correct one. it is the obit theory urged that-i consistent with the confidence that has been placed in him by the people of Wilson. His family have been greatly distressed as he left them no word and his mother has almost been crushed un der the blow. It is the most inex plicable affair ever known in this part f North Carolina, for Mr. Wilson is a young man of unques tioned talent and capacity. He had a fine opening here and no young man in the State ever enjoyed more advantages to win a successful and useful career. It is sad tbat a career that promised eo much is endd so mysteriously and disastrously, and that his reputation rests under a cloud. WUIIama la Cadoabtedlr Eleeted-XIla Bajorltr ! Raleigh, Nov. 1 1.

CONCORD NC. THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 17 WUAT WILL, II E IMKNK? Perhaps the greatest objection many Southern people had with Mr. Cleveland's former administration was his lack of appreciation for party service his not "chopping off heads. That's about what beat the gentle man in 1888.. Such 'will hardly be repeated. The Standard expects to see a clean sweep to begin about the 5th of next March a sweep all along the line. Democrats expect this, and they have a right to expect such. Possibly there are thousands in this county, who expect to see some sweeping done. If Adlai Stevenson has a say so, it will be done. The Counties. Halifax county, that gaye 1,700 majority against Cleveland in 18S0, this year gives him 2,000 majority. Halifax is oi e of the heavy negro counties.

Maguire in the third and Cannon in the sixth district. The Republi cans elect Hilbern in the fourth. Loud in the fifth and Powers in the seventh.

Re turns from all over the State are coming in very slowly. The unoffi cial returns from 55 countie3 show steady Democratic gains over the vote of 1888. Cleveland's majority in the State, it is conceled by Re pnblicans, will be not les3 than 5,000 and probably more. This county (Marion) is solidly Democratic by from 1,000 to 1,100.
