Hon. w. l. Wilson Looming Up.

Especial Dispatch To tho Baltimore Sun.l
WASHINGTON, May Gratifying
reports are being received here from
the Northwest, where Congressman
Wilson, of West Virginia, is engaged
in effective missionary work for the
Democratic party. Among thoughtful
politicians Nc. Wilson is regarded rs
a most promising dark horse in tho
race for the speakership of the next
House. Mr.. Crisp, OF Georgia, is
conceded to be better qualified for
the position than most of the other
laspirants, and he is supposed to have
the lead in the race ut present. He
is uuquestionably handicapped by his
colleague, Mr.. Blouut, who has an
nounced himself as q candidate in
order TO divide the Georgia deleea-
ton in the interest of Mr.. Mills. If
AIr. Mills should be successful he
stands pledged, so it is said, to givo
the craftsmanship of almost every im-
portant committee to Southern men.
1t is feared such a course would ere
ate dissatisfaction and give rise to
the cry of sectionalism, which was
used so effectively in the Western
States in the last Cleveland Harrison
campaign. 1t is unfortunate that
such state of affairs is possible, but
those who are familiar with the cir
cumstanees know what the Demo-
cratic candidates had to contend
againat in 1888, because of blind aud
unreasonable prejudice. Couserva-
...a -, tl,s,G
are anxious to see the Democratic
party succeed in the next national
contest, regardless of the personal
ambitions of certain gentlemen who
have seen long and faithful service
in the House of Representatives con-
cede that there are but two Southern
men who stand the least chance OF
securing the nominntion-Messrs.
Crisp and Mills. The former has
stronger following in the East and
West than in the South, because of
his general qualifications to preside
over the House and fathom the depths
of parliamentary law. Mr., Mills is
seeking the gayel as a reward for his
stubborn and persistent fight in be-
half of tariff reform. He has strong
sentimental following, who believe he
has fairly earned the honor. In adj
dition he has the support OF Messrs.
Blount, Mcmillan and the two BrecS-
inridges, all of whom are simply
named in the list of candidates in or
der to serve notice that they expect
TO go upon the ways and means com
mittee, or at the head of important
committees.
In the meantime Mr.. Wilson is the
second choice OF large number of
gentlemen who are friendly to both
Messrs. Crisp and Mills. His ability
to gill the position acceptably is not
questioned, and he may prove the
happy medium between the two lead
ers. His speeches in Montana and
Oregon are apt to help him among the
Western contingent should itbecome
apparent early in the fight that neith-
er Springer nor Bynum are 'in IL. -
While the forces of the other candi-
dates appear TO be wayering in the
breezes of criticism and examination
the West Virginian seems to be grow
ing all the time.

How TO SucGEED.-If your scat is
too hard to sit upon, stand up. If
rock rises up before you, roll II away
or climb over it. Ifyou want money
earn it. If you wish for confidence,
prove yourself worthy OF it. II takes
longer to skin an elephant than n
mouse, but the skin is worth some-
thing. Do not be contented with
doing what another has done-snr-
pass it. Deserve success and it will
come. The boy was not born man.
The sun does not rise like rocket,
or go down like a bullet fred from
gun; slowly but surely it makes its
round, and never tires. tis as easy
TO be leader az wheel horse. II
the job be long the pay will he more !;
if the task be hard, the more compc-
tent you must be to do it.

LIttIe sister.

Little sister, robea in white,
There with folded hands she lies,
Breathless silence on her lips,
Eudless slumser ON her eyes.
Leaving Garth with no regrets
Glingipg TO her heavenward feet,
All that she has known OF life
Was to grow more fair and sweet.
Yesterday she was our own,
Ours to comfort, love and teach.
Now she seems woudrous star
Shining far beyond our reach.
Lay the scattered toys aside,
Fold the little clothes away,
Smooth the empty trundlc bed
No more needed day by day.
Angels shall attend her now,
With immortal food and rest;
Leading her with tenderest care
Through the garden of the blessed.
