Their proposed ' action; came to the notice of J. Leon Williams, Secretary of the'New Bern Chamber of Commerce, and he wrote the com pany a letter in which he urgefi that they defer their decisions upon the location of the plant until New Bern had been , considered. Yesterday he received1' from them the following answer: VIRGINI A BOX AND 1! M liKR - COM PANS Petersburg, Ya., Jan. 8, VUi. J. Leon Williams, K., Secretary Chamber of t'oniineFee, New Bern, N. C. Dear Sir: Your valued favor of the 6th just received and content noted. In re .ply beg to advise that we have been contemplating locating a saw mill operation either at Kinston or at Golds boro and believe we can work out a ynore advantageous proposition at one or other of these places.

Box & Lumber Co. Judging from the above it would seem that both Kinston and Golds boro have offered the company very attractive propositions and it now re mains" for New Bern to make a ;n;re attractive oiler.

"Let the voters of each party in the several States call a conference, a Sttte-wide- Vom'erence, to discuss the pbjn and appoint delegates to a na tional conference. Each party would hold its own conference made up of its Own men. ' "The .national conference, on the other hand, would .-onsist ol 'an eijual number of delegates from the two part ies. - U : "The work of the national conference would be to get toother on 'principles antl policies, and to select a name for the new holding party.

Washington, Jan. 9. That the Northern members of Congress will make a stubborn fight to ge ttheir share of the committee honors alter March 4 and that organiation'to that end is being quietly effected has come to light. - Copies of two letters which luve been sent out to al! Northern Congressmen and C'ongressmen-i lect have reachvd newspaper men. Karh ol them is belligerent and shows plainly that t lie movement to reorganize tin- next House has behind it a measure ol strength. . , ' One uf the hitters was written by Warrrn V. Bail- y, if Jolnistow nu Pa., ho w as 1 leered 1 nieniber ol the Mom.-c in the last election in a district that had never gone Democratic. Mr. Bailey '.vas i-n Washington and admitlec! the authosrhip of the letter, which reads: "Perhaps the most critical point in the organization of the next House will be the naming of committees.- Under the existing plah the Ways and Means Committee acts as cominitteee on ComjftlMeea and is practically self- perptuating, .with its tremendous powers and responsibilities. . "Would it not be better to have a distinct committee' on committees and could wpot pull the teeth out ef the react ionjirfes.? "Lwish you would think this matter over and-when . we come together we will then"- learn one another's more or less matured views." More emphatic than this, perhaps, is the. second letter which the new Con gressmen have received. - The author ship of this communication is note admitted, but the fact that it has been sent out and has, been received by Northern members of the next House has been learned beyond- doubt. The second letter reikis as follows: "Does it seem right to you that the organization of the House should con tinue as it is? It if the evident purpose ot those in control to pertett'ate the existing regime and we are extreme ly, doubtful whether this is althogether for the best. "The disclosures before the Clapp committee would seem to re serious enough to impair the '. usefulness ol some prominent Democratic leaders. The fact has been on our mind that as many as. possible of the new members should get together in Washington in the near future for the purpose ol discussing the situation and formulat- Ihg somfe plan." u n "At;. Mt&nt practically every im portant chairmanship is held bv the Sohth and. if not fill; chairmanship. then it "has bepn the ranking member. We doubt if thi is truly -representa tive. What "do you thjnk" about it?". 4 here wNi distinct note ol insurgency in this.. second detter.-. If not only in vites the new members to get together and hne tip against the present orcniw tion. of the. House but it .suggests that the , -Sottth - ihas gained ' too strong ,a position of leadership in the House and fhata change shoold be made. ' t !'

This evening the fans of New Bern will hold a meeting to decide whether that town wishes to put a team in the" field during the ipproaching season. "It is expected that some definite action will be taken within tne next few days. A conference of reriresen tatives of trie different towns may be galled Jn the -hope of forming. a league. "While the question has not be?n given consideration locally, as yet, it is practically certain that Wilming ton fandom will awaken when it is realised that there is a chance to secure again some of the long-desired professional ball games. This city is one. of the best ball towns in the State. There was considerable disap pointment when Wilmington was over looked in the recent formation of an All-State League. The next best thing apparently is to get together with the neighboring towns. "Thj exciting days of the Eastern Carolina circuit will long be remem bered. It is believed that the en thusiasts here are now ready to rally to the support of.a team. If the de termination to form a league rests with thi city, and the other towns are willing, it is almost a certainty that things "base ' ballicul ' will soon begin to wear a bright aspect.
