RALEIGH, Jan. 23.-In regard to the
endorsement of some favorite son of
North Carolina for a Cabinet position,

There seems to be too many great men
IN the State for any particular gentle

Notwithstanding Mr.. Gienn's fine

There is a good deal of talk here
about the controversy between the

Weekly in regard to the contested
election case OF Williams and Settle
in the Fifth Congressional district,
and the opinion prevails in certain
quarters unless Williams puts muz-
Zle on his friend Webster there will be

State quite seriously.
The resolution requesting our SEN

A SENSATIONAL ATTACK.
The Re dsFillG RGViGW rs. Congressman
Williams and Editor Webster.
WILLIAMS CALLED A DBMAGQGUE

ana webster accused of Being Guilty
OF Base inSratiiude TO the Demo
cratic Parry-Ehe Review Gives a
History Gf Yci,st-r's Political Life
his Combines With Republicans
The two Reidsrille papers, the Re
view and Webster's Weekly. have
been at odds for some time over the
matter OF Tom Settles election to
Congress. The last issue of the Re
view contains a sensational attack
upon both Congressman A. III. A.
Williams, and Editor J. r. Webster
The attack appears under flaming
headlines. in which Williams and
Webster are characterized as ssMod-
crn Prototypes Of Judas Iscariot and
Benedict Arnold"
A letter is published in the outset
from Congressman Williams to J. B.
Smith, chairman of the Peoples party
Congressional committee il which he
unqualiffedly endorses the Ocala plat
form and expresses his approval Of the
st. Louis platform in the main. The
proposition to pay Federal soldiers
the difference between gold and green
backs. and the wOman's suffrage prop
0sition, Mr.. Williams stated he could
never approve"
In answer TO Il question about eau
cuses, Mr.. Williams replied: Il have
never attended and will never attend
| one which can bind me to forsake my
| principles, or support any man or
measure that will bring harm TO Ey
constituents"
| The Review condemns Mr.. Williams
| for writing such a letter after having
accepted Il nomination at the hands Of
| a Democratic convention. 1t says the
| letter is denagogical.
The Review next accuses Mr.. Web
Ster Of base ingratitude to the Demo-
cratic party. 1t says that in 1886
| Webster was elected to the legislature
by combination with the Republi-
| cans, Webster agreeing to support for
| solicitor Tom Settle who was running
against Z. b. Glenn. and TO vote with
| the Republicans in the legislature on
the county government question. That
in thai legislature Webster was elect
ed over Overman, the Democratic
| caucus nominee, by another combine
with the Republicans. One of the
considerations of the compact was
that Mr.. Webster was to vote for the
repeal of the county government sys
TEN. This combination was effected
through the Influence of Judge Thorn
as Settle, and his son, Thomas Settle
Jr However, continues the Review
Mr.. Webster did not deliver the goods
but voted twice against the repeal OF
the county government system.
The Review further charges that in
1883, Mr.. Webster was again supported
by the Republicans for the House
Tom Settle, Jr., making scvera
speeches for him, and was only mar
rowly defeated. He sulked because OF
defeat and Immediately began t

RAILWAY LEGISLATION.
n Fight Precipftated on a Bill Favor
able to Railroads,

Correspondence of the Sentinel)
RALEIGH, n. O., Jan. 21.-The first
fight upon legislation in favor of rail-
roads cropped out in the Senate today.
1t developed IN connection with the
bill to allow railroads to run fast linn
it trains through this state without
being required to stop at all stations
along the line. The bill also provided
for local accommodations in addition
| t was introduced by Senator Day. of
Halifax, in contemplation of a fast
through train to be put on by the
Sedb0ard Air Line from Jersey City
to New Orleans. The object of the
bill. as explained by its patrons, is to
avoid the possibility of persons buying
tickets at small stations and suing
the railroad if the train does not stop.
The bill was opposed and fought by
Senator Brown, of Columbus county.
1t however passed a second reading.
and would have passed a third reading
but for Browns objection, width pla-
ced it upon the calendar.
Among the important bills which
passed the Senate were the following:
To provide adequate wafer supplies
for public institutions of the State: to
prohibit detectives from carrying con-
cealed weapons in the State.
In the House bills were intro
duced to reduce the marriage license
lax: to amend the Constitution so a.
to entirely abolish the homestead ex-
emption.
The contested election case from
Warren county, in which the seat of
Wright (Rep.) is claimed by Long
Dem. J. came UP in the House as spe-
cial order today, but was postponed
until next Wednesday.
Mr.. Watson, Of Forsyth, created
laughter in the House when lie
said he favored leaving out of the dis
cussion the arragning of one class
against another There were last fall
number Of people who thus wanted
TO array the classes against each 9TH
er, but these people are now at home
cracking hickory nuts. This was a
sharp cut at the Populists.

ter, or against work and labor done.

WILD TURKEYS BAGGED.
Snow and Ice Afford Good SIeighing
at Bellows Creek.

Correspondence of the ntinel
Bellows CREEK, Jan. 2O.-We are
showed under down here and farm
work of all kinds has stopped. To-
bacco is too dry to handle and of
course there is nothing else we can do,
so we have been spending most of the
time hunting and sleighing, which is
very fine sport indeed. Nearly every
boy in the neighborhood has sleigh
and the girls have enjoyed some very
pleasant rides. Occasionally one up
sets but the snow is soft and horses
gentle and no one has been hurt.
Messrs. Crawford. Marshall and Mat
Ham each killed very fine wild tur-
key few days ago.
The farmers say this cold weather
is just what we need. The land will
produce better after being frozen deep
and the insects will not be so plenti-
full next spring.
This has been nice weather for
gatheri1 G ice and many houses have
been filed.
There must be something wrong
with the mails somewhere. Some of
the subscribers of THE SENTINEL say
| they don't get their paper in five or
| six days after it is printed, and some
times they don't get it all. We don't
| know where the fault lies but we are
| sure there is negligence somewhere.
Our neighbor, Mr.. Henry Fulton. is
very sick. WICK.

CLEvELAND's CABINET.

The President-elect is cautious
man and at the same time bold
one He is the most trusted man ia
the nation and the only man who
could have been elected without b ,th
New York and Indiana. He owes
his n )Rination to no combinations
aud there is little doubt but his c;tt,i
net will be a collection of able and
trustworthy men.
There is, however, Geography of
Politics which seem to require that
different sections of the nation shall
be ''recognized" in the selection of a
Presidents councillors. The South
is on this argument entitled TO some
thing, and she will get it. The first
certainty is the selection of Senator
Carlisle of Kentucky for the Treasury
portfolio. We rejoice at this because
for years Mr.. Carlisle has been con-
sidered next to Allen g. Thurman,
the most able man in the Democratic
party.
Illinois has been clamorous, but as
she has the Vice Presidency and the
Chief Justiceship, she cannot with
good grace cry for any more More
over, as she got the Vice Presidency
through the movement initiated by
this State in the nomination of Stew
enson, a return of the favor on the
part of that great Western State
might result in securing a North
Carolinian for the Cabinet
We believe that this State would
be much more likely to secure this
favor were it not for the strong
movement in Virginia which asks the
post OF Attorney General for r. Ran
dolph Tucker, President of the Amer
lean Bar Association We'll, nobody
can object to Tucker, but if Virginia
should fail to get him into the Cabi-
net, what more graceful thing could
she do than to lend her assistance to
her immediate Southern neighbor?
IF Virginia succeeds, North Caro-
lima will not. But it frequently hap
pens that those who are early in the
race are not the ultimate winners.
Meanwhile we say to the Democracy
that North Carolina has men like
Elk Gov. Jarvis, Tx Gov. Holt and
Julian s. Carr who are worthy Of
being called into the friendly circle
of the Presidents councillors
