LONDON, Dec. 14-Ths sudden attention
given to Spanish affairs by other European
nations is surprise TO all save those expe-
rienced persons who have long ago ceased to
be surprised by anything which happens in
Spain That country was in a great meas
ure the cause of the Franco German war,
and she may again set all Europe In a tur-
MOL. Her chronic state OF bankruptcy and
insigniicanee as military power have not
deferred her from snubbing Germany, and
the foreign Office Of the latter power hardly
knows whether TO treat the affront with
contempt or Indignation.
1t is probably at the suggestion of Sagasta
and Armijo that Senior CASTELAR, has under
taken his mission to Rome. II that utopian
dreamer is really of the opinion that be can
Dust Signor Crispi from the Italian pre-
miership and detach Italy from the triple
alliance he deserves more credit for his en-
thusiasm than respect for his Judgment He
especially misunderStandt his own country
1t would be only under the strongest provo
cation that any power would invade Spain,
and it would he difficult, to say the least, to
induce Spanish troops to leave their own
territory and what she could gain from such
an alliance, it is difficult TO imagine.
The idea of Latin league appeals to
rrencn interests only, anu neither the
Italian nor Spanish people would consent TO
act under the domination of France, nor
would their generals serve under French
officers. The feelings Of Spain in relation to
the pnpacy are directly Antagonistic to the
accepted policy of Italy, and this circum-
stance alone would prevent any cordial rela-
tions from continuing bet ween the two
powers
The suggestion of Belgium as a member
Of the incongruous union would only meet
the approval Of the French speaking por-
ton of that people, even if the distinct i'm.
preston of German prowess were not present
as a warning influence. Toe French press is
naturally making the most of the diplomatic
fencing between Armijo and Bismarck, and
nothing would please the GaulS better than
to see Germany added to the list of powers
that have lost presti 20 in the peninsula.
The Fascon incident has already had its
fruits in suggesting to European powers that
in these days of rapid Jmmunication there
is no vital necessity for the feudal and costly |
institution of sustaining ambassadors at
foreign courts, and it would be singular if a |
nation so long renowned for its punctiious-
ness as Spain should be- the first to cause the |
abrogatOn of the antiquaJsd system.

Letter from West Randolph.
(From the Argus

Having little spare time your report.
er walked through the village cemetery
the other day and was panied to note the
neglect of some of the graves and of the
lack of attention that seemed TO prevail
in the old part of the cemetery. IL would
be grand idea if the village would
spend a small amount every year in this
small sacred spot of ground, and thus
/ give 1t better appearance, especially to
strangers. The new part of the cemetery
| looks very nicely, and there is no reason
for neglecting the old part. Some very
| fine tablets, monuments and head-stones
were noticed that have recently been
erected, and besides there were some
very ancient stones, the names on which
were almost obliterated, owing to age.
The oldest noticed was inscribed ''In
memory of Ira, son of Capt. Thomas and
Anna Lamson, who was killed by the
fall of tree, Dec. 10, 1904, in his 18th
year" This stone is smooth and was
in its day fan expensive kind, there be-
ing great deal of engraving on it and
the inscription being as plain as ever
mat OF Gideon Martin near by. is anoth-
er ancient stone, it is cut of a different
species from that of the first named and
the Inscription is hardly readable; one
can just make out that he 'died Jan. 10.
lSO6, aged o." On stone of the same
species, and right next to it, was the in
scrlption, "ln memory of Sarah Martin.
consort of Geo. Martin, who died Dec.
8, 1905, aged 90 years, = and by her side
Is the last resting place of "Rachel,
wife OF Gideon Martin, who died April
%, 1888, aged % years and months"
Another stone west of these SAYS, sin
memory of Mr.. David Fenton, who died
Nov. 10, 1909, aged 80 years." and right
south on another slab is inscribed, ssShu-
bel, son of Shubel and Polly Wales, who
died May |, 1913, aged years.
Frank G. Morse has his house ready
for the plasterers.
Alonzo Emery brought ten calves to
the station for shipment last week Mon

colt killed by its getting into a large well
