Especial telegram TO The Dlspatch.I
WASHINGTON, December LIZ More than half
of the Democratic members Of the House are
now here, and the fight over the speakership
increases In intensity Of feeling. The friends
of both Randall and Kerr express confidence
10 the strength of their respective candidates.
Each new arrival Is Immediately booked on
one side or the other. Raudall's friends
seem more confident than those of Kerr, and
1t looks, from demonstrations tonight, as IL
Randall Is to be successful.
The first formal declaration By a State
delegation was made tonight. The Penn
sslvana delegation met, aud resolved unani-
mously to support Randall and do anything
proper to further his success. All the men,
bers Of the delegation were present except
three, the absentees being represented by
proxy. Both Randall and Kerr seem to de-
pend upon the action Of southern members.
Both are making large claims upon that sec.
ton. but as none Of the southern delegations
are here entire nothing reliable can be said
Of them.
Senator Gordon says that the South Is not
united upon any candidate, and that no
formal effort will be made, for prudential rea-
sons, to that end. He believes southern
members are pretty nearly eq1ally divided
between Randall and Kerr, but says any
opinion as to how they will finally decide is
mere speculation. Lamar, who is counted
for Randall, and who 1t is supposed will exert
vast influence with southern members, is ex-
peced tomorrow. Randalps friends say
they can count ninety votes sure. That
number would insure his nomination on the
first ballot. TIHoN.

calves Of his legs, while he skipped around
like great Northwestern grasshopper
with the jim jams. "Well you do it ?'

for terrific swoop, and dealing him a

in the bank is not yet known, but its
friends express confidence that the credit
ors will be paid dollar for dollar. The
failure had the effect of bringing many
business men to the verge of ruin, and
had there not been cOmmendable spirit
displayed among them in the way of
granting extension, the probabilities are
the crash would have been extended
widely. So far as we can learn, there is
but one person in this county affected by
the suspension.

Our STATE AYYIvERsARY.- Thurs
day next will be the twenty-fith anniver-
sary of the admission of California to the
United States. For nearly a year after
the adoption Of her State constitution her
representatives waited at the door of the
halls OF Congress, refused admission be-
cause the vote of California would destroy
the equality of representation in :he SEN
ate between the free and slave States.
The debates in Congress during this long
period were characterized by that bitter
ness which afterward took the form Of
rebellion and secession and the attempt
to divide the Federal Union. 1t may be
said with truth that that part Of our his
tory which tended to the acquisition Of
this State was the means of bringing into
prominence the slavery question to such
degree as to ultimately tend to the de-
struction of that cherished institution Of
the South. The famous " Wilmot pro-
viso," which sought to declare that nei-
ther slavery nor involuntary servitude,
except as punishment, should be permit
ted in the newly acquired territory; the
nomination of II " Free Soil |" candidate
for the Presidency in 1913 the admission
of California with free econstitution, and
the repeal Of the Missouri Compromise,
followed by the formation Of the Repub-
lican party, were links in the chain of
events which led to the rebellion and the
destruction of that institution which had
come to be a disturbing element of our
national politics. Those who had attain
ed an age at that time when the affairs Of
the country were engrossng the atten-
tion, can look back through the quarter
of IA century which has interviewed since
our State was invested with sovereignty,
and marking the events which success
lively followed, see for themselves that the
period Of which we have spoken was one
fruitful Of national glory. California was
the thirty-frst State 20 seek admission to
the sisterhood, but younger than she have
come forward, peopled by the pioneers of
civilization, until now the bond reaches
almost across the continent. In our
quarter century of national life, we have
grown to a rank in wealth and population
far surprising some Of those who preccd
ed US into the Union. The day will be
appropriately celebrated in the cities and
should be throughout the State.
