SKTTI K ADVISKS PRITCHAilIV AVritrm I'ritcharil a' letter Advising Him to Ieave the Simmons Mat ter Alone Asheville, N. C, Nov. 14, 1900. Hon. J. C. Pritchard, Marshall, N.C. My Dear Seuator Havirg, like yourself, the interest of the Republi can party at heart, National and Slate, I trust that you vill not mis construe the motives prompting me to address you this letter. The results of the November elec tion speak for themselves to the in telligent mind. I understand from various sources, official and unoffi cial, that it is the policy of a num ber of gentlemen composing the Re publican organization of this Siate, through you as Senator, to protest, against seating Mr. Simmons when he presents his credentials as Mr. J.iutler's successor. I am opposed to that palicy and hope that you will not give ear to it. I see no guod in it to the Republican party or to the State. Oq what grounds will you object to his being sworn in ar:d ask the reference of his cre dentials to the Committee on Privileges- and-. Election? The case of Ikberts from Utah is not applicable. You cannot establish anything against Mr. Simmons, personally, that v.-o'uld justify the Senate in re fusing him -idmission. You would therefore have to base your case on po!i-.ica!.'and legal or politicodegal i.-.-u''s, to-wit: North Carolina had not the time of the election of the mri ;-bers of the legislature which e .;.. d Mr. Simmons United States 8 iiutor a republican form of gov- t.'in.-nt 'u:.;?or. guaranteed by the Consti d therefore said legislature, L had co jower to elect a Suopose von succeed in c-iiniing a majority of the Senate thai, the eontention is sustained by thy law and the facts, what then ? Mr. Ay cock would immedia'ely ap point Mr. Simmons' to fill the vacan cy, and your tight . would just have begun. You would, in the language of my lamented friends Gen. J. M. i.eatjti, only nave entered the res tibuk; of attack." Could you con t ai e thr.t fight on the ground that Avcoek. the Governor, himseirelect c i urid'er.the same law, had no-pow- r i appoint a Senator to fill a va- jL (. y '.y Again, should you succeed, if the United States or State Su-i-. v1.'):" Court should, upon a contest gr.. wii g out of any act of the pres ng;v,ai ure, sustain such a de-e-.K.ti of the Senate,' "where, oh, .'ere" The returns of 'the Nov i i o'T ( I c tion, as compared with -- - - 'S'.' of the August elfection, show .- "it gains bv the Republican par- . The August election and the '-ve:nber election -were held under -an:e law. If we had no repub .' .:, form of government in August 'eh ad none in November. Our 'aws were the same in each election. !: t he credentials of the members of t he . legislature can be investigated a-id'set. aside by the United States 'Senate upon the allegation thgt 'here, exists no republican form of government at the time they were elected to the legislature, and there foie declines to admit the man this legislature has elected to represent t he State, have jrou not gotten the State aud the Republican party in a very. awkward -position ? How can you assault the credentials of Mr. Simmons and not assault the cre dentials of every Congressman from the State, including those of Moody and Blackburn, Republican members from the Eighth and Ninth dis tricts? If the election of either is under the condition of non-existence of a. republican form of government, the same is true with reference to ail our National Representatives. You cannot maintain that Moody aud Blackburn were elected under a republican form of government, and that Simmons, Kluttz, Kitchin. Sioall, et al. were elected under a non-tepubheau form of government. I am not Mr. Simmons' champion. I suppose I had as much to do with the opposition to his confirmation as collector of internal revenue as .:v!jy living man in the State. My opposition was political; and as I then in a contest for a seat in Cci gi -ess with Mr. Williams, and Sen at ; Ransom was taking sides .v.iii Williams, I made the fight in ' if of the Republican party and to .':'ve Senator Ransom something to attend to at home.' K this issue is made, how will it ht done? Clearly on the ground of th; piesent improperly called "Sim iiioqs election law." the constitu tional amendment and the condi tions and cirsumstanees attending the election, is the answer. You cannqt invoke the Wilmington riot that occurred under a Republican and Populist election law. The business interests of the State, as represented by the mer-.-y-iants, manufacturers, bankers, railroad men and all laborers will come to us if we only give them an availubie opportunity to do so. Why. then, not "let the dead past bury its dead"? Act in the living piesent, heart within and God o'er hoad.

A box tive feet long, two feet deep and three feet wide, weighing per haps o00 pounds, standing in a cor ner of Senator Pritchard's commit tee1 room in the Senate annex, other wise called the Maltby building, is destined to play a prominent part in the Seuate this winter. It con tains poll-books kept by the Repub lican committee of North Carolina at the last election. The evidence contaiued in these books will be used to impeach the validity of the elec tion of Mr. Simmons to the United States Senate. It is certain that such a contest will be inaugurated when the new Senate is sworn in March 4th, at the extra session of the Senate. The Senate is always called in extra session at the com mencement of a new administration. There is uo probability of an extra session of the House. The grounds upon which Mr, Sim mons' election will be contested are that the negroes were not allowed to vote in the August election, that many Republican votes cast - were not couuStd and, that as. fraud viti ates, everything, the Legislature then elected was not a legal body. The poll books kept , at the late election will be used in comparing the vote of August with the vote in November. These poll books were kept by Republican watchers As men 'passed into the polling booths, t hey we.'e handed, it is said, Repub lican 'tickets.. As they came out they stated to other Republican watch. ms that they had voted the Re pu'ol:ci'n ticket. The name of each vo" er-was noteu in the book and vl.nTi the returns were made, unless the li jiiibt-r of Republican ballots c-orre o onding with the number of Republican ballots alleged to' have been cast as counted bythe watc'.ers, the Republicans alleged that fraud is conclusively shown. This is an liiustratioti: sav the watchers re turn fifty Republican votes as cast, but the election officers return only thirty Republican ballots; then they sav that twenty votes cast for the Republican candidates were return ed as cast for the Democratic candi dates. These poll-books also show that "iiiiiy more votes were cast in the late election known as the Aug ust t-h-etion, and they will be put in evidei.'ce to prove that in the August election, .held under the State law, Republicans were afraid to vote, while -in the late election, held under Federal law, the people voted. Mr. Hyams, secretiry of the North- Carolina Republican Commit tee, said to your correspondent to day that the sentiment among Re publicans in North Carolina and with many gold Democrats was that .Vi r. Simmons' ejection should be contested,- and he had no doubt that the matter would be called to the attention of the Senate when Mr. Simmons' credentials were present ed to that bod v. Thunksg i vilify Proclamation, Governor Russell has issued his proclamation, setting apart Thurs day, November 29th, as Thanksgiv ing Day, as follows: Whereas, The President of the United States of America, has by his proclamation, set apart Thurs day, the 2lth day of the present mouth as a day of Thanksgiving to Almighty God for the manifold blessings that have been vouchsafed to the year 1900, and Whereas, It has long been the custom in this commonwealth to set apart one day in the year as a day of Thanksgiving aod rejoicing, and Whereas, It is befitting and proper that men should at all times testify gratitude to God for the blessings which he bestows upon them, and it being especially beneficial to the moral and religious health of the people of the community to set aside particular days from time to time, upon which they should especially mark their gratitude to God for past favors, now, therefore, I, Daniel L. Russell, Governor of the State of North Carolina, do set apart, and appoint Thursday; the 2Hth day of November, instant, as a day of Thanksgiving and rejoicing, and do hereby request the people of this State, so far as it may be with in their power to do so, to assemble iii their respective places of worship and make solemn thanksgiving to God fur all the blessings of his good providence and it is suggested that the interest in these thanksgivings may be increased and thenjoy&ent of them greatly heightened, by the bestowal of largess of the world's good things upon the orphans of the State and upon others in circum stances of distress. .

The mystery of the disappearance of young Amos Shailcross is still un solved The boy, whose age is 13, disappeared from his-luxurious home October 11th, last. Since then his mother, who is a widow, his five brothers and sisters and wide circle of acquaintances of the Shailcross family have been endeavoring to learn where the lad may be. Because of the fact that when his father, who . was Lewis W. Shail cross, a member of the firm of Mor ris, Tasker & Co., iron founders, left something akin to half a million dollars when he died a short time ago, the theory that young Amos may have been abducted to be held for ransom, as was Charley Ross, almost a generation ago, nas oeen advanced. - .

Yesterday afternoon, while Mr. Jule Price and his brother were cut ting saw logs on one of the ridges near Hibriten, Mr. Price was caught under a 60 foot log that started to roll down the hill and very seriously, if not fatally injured. When the log started to roll. Mr. Price tried to stop it with a hand spike, but fell and was caught by the!og, it rolling on his body to the hips and remain ed on him for live hours before enough help could be summoned to remove it, His right leg aud thigh are badly crushed and paralized. Dr. Wilson attended him last night and made a partial examination, but could not ascertain the full extent of his injuries. He and Dr. Houck are with him today. Suicide In Cabarrus. Concord Times, Mr. Doc J. Bost, of No. 6 ship, was found dead in his his home yesterday morning G o'clock. He did not arise town bed at about at his usual time and when breakfast was ready .his mother called him. Re ceiving no response, she entered his room and found his body lying on the bed. He had dressed himself before doing the deed. He shot himself twice with a pistol, one time in the side and the other in the neck. He was dead when found. The reports of the pistol were heard by his moth er, but it was muffled, and sounded like a door being slammed. Mr. Bost was 25 years old and un married. He was the son of Mr. Levi L. Bost. He had been in ill health for some time, and this is the only reason that can be given for the rash deed. Blind Prejudice and Spite. Sampson Democrat. It is said that quite a number of Populists in this couotv voted the straight Republican ticket luesday, swallowing it from McKinley down. It may as well be admitted that the Populist party has gone over, bag and baggage, into the Republican party in. this State', That is where Democrats predicted it would wind up some years ago, and the proph ecy was stoutly disputed by the then enemies of the two old parties. It is quite a summersault, and one that can not be well explained, for a Southern white man to voluntarily desert the Democratic party aud go over to the Republican party that has been since its organization the enemy of the South, its institutions, and its people. Surely this foolish action is prompted by blind preju dice and spite. The best that can be done is to excuse it on that jground. A Black Fiend's Awful Crime. Denver, Col., Dispatch, isth. A pair of overalls and a shirt stain ed with blood were found in the bug gy of the three colored men, Preston Porter and his two sons, who are de tained in the city prison here on ac count of suspicion that John Porter, one of the boys; was the murderer of Louise Frost. They had their baggage shipped to Lawrence, Kan., but it was returned to Denver unop ened. After withstanding the pres sure ot the sweat-box at the city jail for four days, John Porter who is Jo years old, to-night broke down and confessed every detail of the killing of the 11-year-old girl. Ihe little girl was the daughter of a ranchman living four miles from Limon. attended the school in town. On Wednesday last while on her way home she was waylaid, assaulted and murdered, her body showing no less that fourteen knife wounds. The police department sent two men to Limon tonight to verify some of Porter's statements. They wish to be absolutely sure of his guilt before turning him over to the authorities at Limon, owing to a strong belief that he will be lynched on his arriv al at that place. Which is Civilized? Wilmington. Star. The Chinese Boxers have been de nounced as savages for their barba rous treatment of the missionaries and other "foreign devils" who fell into their hands during the recent uprising, and they were very prop erly denounced, for in their savage ferosity they acted more like demons than human beings; but with the exception of the refinement of cruel ly some of the so called Christian powers are rivalling the Boxers in brutality and savagery.' Ihe pub lished accounts of the promiscuous slaughter of men, women and chil dren, combatants and non combat ants, bv the Russians and by the Germans are almost too horrible for belief and would not be believed if they were not well substantiated by Europeans who have been witnesses to what they tell. Think of thous ands of human beings, men, women and children, shot down like wild game or driven by the thousands into the rivers to drown and form floating rafts or islands of decaying flesh and bones, as told in the press dispatch published in the Star yes terday. And yet Russia is a "Christian" nation, where nearly every daily act is begun and ended with a prayer, with an invocation for the blessing of Godv Other nations have indulg ed in excesses of savagery, but none approaches Russia, which looms up in barbarity above them all. To the credit of our nation, we cannot be charged with brutal murder of the innocents, although we are ' not free from the charge of plundering. When order is restored in that land of the yellow man, these"Chris tian" nations which have been set ting the heathen such an example of brotherly love and forbearance will be sending missionaries to enlighten the heathen, and bring them into the Christian fold, and what will the heathen think when he remem bers the record of blood and ven geance, of fire and slaughter soin of these Christian nations have made in that heathen land?

He called the attention of the Presi dent to the fact that figures on the population of the United States, the total of which has been announced, are in such shape that they will be at the disposabof Congress when it meets for any action it may desire to take in the direction of a . reap portionment bill. The reapportionment following the count of the twelfth census will become operative by law in IW.l. There will be a considerable increase in the ratio and the total number of representatives under the new ap portionment. Starting with a ratio of 1 to every 30,000 inhabitants, there were 05 Representatives iu the First Congress. This ratio, un der the Tenth census, reached 151, 911, givinga House of Repiesenta tives with 325 members. The Elev enth census, in 1890, gave a popula tion of 02,022.250, or an increase of 12,500,000. With this the ratio was increased to 173,901 people to each Representative and at this ratio the House numbered 356, an increase of 31 members. The ratio under the new census probably will reach 200. 000. With au increase of 13,225,404, shown by the present census, and letting majority fractions of the ap portionment count for an addition al number, as has been the custom, this would make an increase of 18 members iu the next House. Re apportionment on this ba.-.is would leave but four States that -would lose Representatives. Ihey are Maine and Virginia in the East, and ansas and Arkansas, in the West. They would lose one member each. Any ratio smaller than 20(1,000 which would save their full repre sentation would, 'it is thought, make an unwieldy addition to the mem be ship of the House.
