The people OF this section are quite anx-
ious that strong man shall be at the
head OF the House Committee on Com.
merce next winter. They don't want the
river and harbor bill TO fail again. Mr.
Willis thinks that he will have the poet
ton again. He didn't show himself to be
very good manager Of a bill on the floor
Of the House. lie says, however, that the
failure of the river and haroor bill last
winter will have the effect OF increased
appropriations Of that kind by this Con.
gress. Owing 10 the failure Of the last
Congress to make appropriations, many
Of the improvements are going 10 RUM
and he thinks that fact will do much
toward turning public sentiment in favor
Of liberal appropriations. lie also says
That the bill failed last winter because Of
disagreement among the members Of the
committee. He thinks that the advocates
Of the continuance Of the levee systems
along the Mississippi river will be obliged
TO bring additional arguments and rea-
sons for its continuance, as there is now
very general dissatisfaction with the
work
