The Ihssfle,

The Scottish thistle-said 20 be one
Of the most ancient badges on record
rext claims our attention. The follow
irg legend accounts for its adoption as
the emblem Of Scotland. On one occa-
sion in ancient times an army Of Danes
landed unobseTved on the Scottish shore.
Finding that the Scots were encamped
at q little distance. they resolved. con-
trary TO their general rule. TO endesvor
TO surprise them by night. siealthily
advancing upon the enemy's camp. they
had nearly effected their purpose, and
victory seemed already within their
grasp, when one Of the barelooted IN
yadcrs trod upon thistle. lie was un-
able to suppress a cry Of pain. The
alarm was given. the Scottish warriors
flew to their arms, and fell upon their
assailsnts, whom they defeated with
great slaughter. In gratitude TO the
plant which had thus guarded the sleep
ing camp. 1t was henceiorth assumed as
the ensign Of Scotland. The device.
with the appropriate motto, " Ncmo me
imppHe ldc,ssit," distinguishes the Or
der Of the Thistle, instituted IN the six
teeuth century. Dunbar's poems are
said 10 contain the earliest mention OF
this flower as the Scottish emblem.
His poem, " The Thrissel and the Rois,
was written in 1903, on the occasion OF
the marriage OF James ". to Margaret
Tudor. Unfortunately, it is impossible
TO determine which is the true Scotch
thistle, but the best opinion seems TO
be that it is either 0HoPOrdHm aeaH-

CoNsTANTIxoPLE, November A.
The War Office continues It's active war
preparations, indicating that the Porte
is not fully satisfied that the Powers
viii peacefully settle the Roumelian
question at the conference which Is about
10 assemble here. The latest enrolled
Iedifs have been modified into a re-
serve corps.
CONsTANTINoPLE, November -
An Trade has been published which
sanctions the Balkan Conference, and
the first formal meeting will be held
tomorrow.
CoNsTANTINoTLE. November A.
Turkey has not yet named her delegates
TO the conference Of Powers on the
Roumelian question because the Am
bRssadors Of the Powers disagree on
the subject of restoring the status quo
ante and the measures TO be adopted
70 restore it. The Porte wishes con-
ference TO open under the auspices Of =
union Of the Powers on the above mat
tiers. Said Pacha. the new Turkish
Foreign Minister, has induced Nelidof,
the Russian Ambassador. to be less
determined TO depOse Prince Alexander,
Of Bulgaria. The Porte is urging Sir
William White, who continues to act
as British Ambassador, to ask England
for fresh instructions respecting its line
Of action at the proposed Balkan con-
ference so as to render a compromise
on the Bulgaro- Roumelisn question pos
sible. The attitude Of England regard
irg the Roumelian difficulty causes
much uneasiness to the Porte. The
Porte believes that Lord Salisbury, the
English Prime Minister, does not want
TO weaken any Of the Balkan States
because as constituted they form bar
Iier sgalnsi Russian schemes. At the
last meeting Of the ambassadors Sir
! William White energetically opposed
the proposition to restore the status
quo ante in the Balkans. The Powers
are certain to disagree on this subject.
Italy has tried and failed to restore &C
cord among the Powers on the matter
The Porte fears that Austria will aban-
don her present policy. which would
greatly increase the difficulties Of the
situation.
LONDON, November 4.-The Press
Association announces on the highest
authority that the Servian troops will
not advance on Bulgaria pending the
decision Of the Balkan Conference.

PORTLAND, OREGON, November 4.
The grand jury Of King county, Wash
ington Territory, has Just been recon-
vened to meetat Salem by order Of the
Court. which fact causes much specu-
lation. 1t is asserted that the jury was
reconvened in anticipation Of serious
trouble should the Chinese refuse to
leave on the date fixed by the so-called
WoIkiDgmen's League. The fact is
that the district attorney and grand
Jury have discovered the identity of GER
tain leaders Of the alleged labor league.
and they will be indicted under those
sections Of the United States Revised
Statutes which provide for the punish
ment Of those who have intimidated for
eigners. They will be prosecuted under

the law. The grand jury have num-
Der Of witnesses who will swear to the
personal intimidation. The treaty is
considered equivalent to law Of the
land, so the district attorney will
hold. and each and every United States
officer in the civil service will so enforce

There is general rejoicing here to-day
over The result IN the two cities and

The result IN Norfolk county IS
great surprise, as the majority some
what exceeded that Of last fail. The
most glaring bnlldozing was practiced
At nearly all tie precincts by the Re
publicAns. Leading Mahoneites were
stationed Of The polls with lists ofvoters,
and as each Republican approached the
precinct he was made te show his ticket
and his name was struck from the list
IS having voted. This outrage was
most offensive az Halls Corner
and Churchland, and totally de-
stree ed tie secret ballot that
the law guarantees 20 every voter.
At ChurchlAnd photograph pictures
were taken Of prominent Mahoneites
operating the bnlldozing scheme. De-
moerats AL over the county are indig-
nAnt at il. Another factor IN the heavy
Republican returns Of the county was
ahe eoret withdrawal Of the Straight
out candidates on the day Of election,
and the transfer Of the entire Straight
out vote to the Mshoneites.
Tie seventh annual meeting Of the
woman,s Missionary Society Of the

Strike Of Galveston knights Of Labor.
lBy telegrs PHI 10 the Dispatch.l

GALVESTON, November A. The
strike is Of greater extent than was at
first known. 1t affects nearly every
industry in the city. Fully 1900
knights Of Labor went out on the
wharves, cotton presses, AID freight
houses. The order to strike came from
two sources--the State Executive Com
mittee Of the Knights Of Labor and the
Trade Assembly Of Galveston.
GALVESTON, November 1.-The
strike started by the Knights Of Labor
yesterday throughout this city on &C.
count Of the refusal Of the Mallory
Steamship Company TO discharge color
ed 'longshoremen continues. No freight
arrived here to-day, and the Missouri Pa
cifc officials have instructed their
country agents to receive no cotton
for shipment to this city. Ten foreign
steamers, partially loaded, are in the
bay. There is z strong feeling against
the boycotters among the business and
railroad-men, and the indications point
to a protracted lockout. The Execu-
tive Committee have detailed two hun
dred Knights Of Labor to aid the police
in keeping peace.
