SpeakerShip Fight.

Dan Quin's Washington letter to the
Memphis Commercial, dated December
81, says:
The conclusion is becoming very gen
eral here that, after all, Cleveland was
not injured by, nor even in, the speaker
ship contest. Cleveland-like all pos
tive men-men in the van, has his op-
posers. 1t was these who first talked of
his aid to Mills and forced him to an
nounce himself in the matter. And it is
the same contingent who despite his plain
assertion of neutrality, persisted in still
declaring him as party in the fray, and
have talked since of the vast injury to
his prospects in the outcome When this
sort Of talk is run to it's sources it is
found to come from a very few. With
the large army of working, practical pol
iticians here Mr.. Cleveland is still, as he
has been, the sole candited for the nomi-
nation. They expect no one else-ad-
nit of no one else.

Of the presidential nomination next year.

further that the governor told him he had
won a personal victory in the nomination
and election of Flower as against Cleve-
land, and the governor says that the New
York delegation will be solid for him in
the next nominating convention. The
governor made any secret to his friends
of the fact that friendly feeling does not
exist between Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Cleveland,
to whom the governor refers as a states
man of the past. Governor Hill says he
has kept his seat in Albany simply to
keep out Lieutenant Governor Jones, who
was bolter and traitor to his party,
and that he would rather be kept out of
his seat in the United States senate for
party reasons than let Jones be governor
for thirty days. After long and frank

says that he will have the South almost

The cOstuming was handsome and ap-

Mr.. Il. +. White, as Santa Claus, was

Prof. w. T. Buchanan as Jack Frost
The singing was very fine the First
Baptist Sunday school being particularly
fortunate in having a number of good
voices.
The children looked pretty in stage
dress and the general effect particularly
in the fairy scenes, was picture anima-
ted and beautiful.
The hall was crowded with an inter

performance was much enjoyed.
During the short recess between the
first and second parts collection was
taken up for the Thomasyille Orphanage
and a good sum realized.
Altogether the Baptist Sunday school
