condition Of the people. There is not
single house on the island uninjured.
The damage to property will reach

1t is impossible to say anything
about the condition Of the western
part of the country, as this place is cut
off from it, but from all reports it is
deplorable and the farming population
is in great need
Along the coast, from here to the
Suwanee river, not house is standing
and the survivors are without food,
shelter or clothing. They are con-
stantly coming in with sorrowful sto-
rics Of want and suffering. The town
is doing all that is possible to give EN-.
ployment in the way Of clearing the
streets, etc, but this goes only a little
way in providing relief.
The people here do not expect train

NOT 4 HAPPY FAMILY.

The Republican politician of Kama
wha county is of that peculiar species
which is never quite happy unless
welding his shilalah. 1t goes without
SAYING that the g. o. p. is split wide
omen in that section and even Bill Dave
Goshorn is among the least OF It's trou-
bles. According to the Charleston Ga
zette:
Among the prominent Republican candi-
dates for county offices who refused 10 pay
their assessments 20 the County RepuDh-
can Executive Committee last Saturday
were w. W. Riley and J. 5. Keeney. candi-
dates for Shsr.fi, and J. q. Rathbone, Tor
County Clerk. So their names VIII not APP

porter that q would have been the height

money for the reason that no matter now

had gotten enough JShave been nominated.
Here we have the Republican ring
again. Is there a county in the whole
State of West Virginia wherein the Re-
publican party is not controlled by a
ring? In Ohio county we know the
power of that close and neat little polit-
icaI corporation that has recently been
formed within the inner circles of the
Republican party. and we had sample
of its methods in the late Republican
primary election here. The Republic
can party in Kanawha county seems to
be afflicted with the same kind Of dis
ease. The decent element in the party
and those not in the ring or on the slate
are loudly demanding fair play, and
according to our Charleston contempt
rary quoted above, big effort is being
made to hold mass convention of the
Republican voters of this county at an
early day for the purpose of getting an
expression of the party as TO the ad-
Visibility of appointing new county
executive committee, and also of hold
ing convention or primary election
to put a ticket in the field for county
and district Offices"
Every good citizen from Ohio county
TO Kanawha must desire TO see ring rule
overthrow. 1t is as subversive of the

TO PROTECT AMERICANS.
Positive Instructions Given to Consul-Gen-
eral Lee Cleveland for Vigorous Action

Positive Instructions Given to Consul-Gen-
eral Lee Cleveland for Vigorous Action.
Washington, May 6.-The instruc-
tons given to General Lee, who is 10
supersede the mild Mr.. Williams as
Consul-General at Havana, are OF
positive character. He has been told
to be prompt and vigilant in the pro-
lection of Americans arrested in Cuba.
The President, in talk with the new
Consul-General, expressed his dissatis-
faction with the dilatory course OF
Williams in failing to press the rights
of American citizens placed under ar
rest either to immediate trial or TO
prompt release.
The instructions to General Lee are
that he is not to take possession OF his
Office in Havana as an enemy of Spain,
but thai he must exercise greater vigi-
lance in behalf of Americans than his
predecessor. To this proposition the
Virginian assented most heartily.
The conduct of the Spanish Minister,
Senior Depuy de LONE, has indicated
INdI HIS SDNtIlHeul IcScutS Iuc NhdllSV
from Williams 10 Lee. De Lone has
paid several visits TO Secretary Olney
during the last few days, with the OBJ
ject of ascertaining the character of the
instructions to be given to General Lee.
He was informed in the most polite
diplomatic language, that it was none
of his business.
The evidences accumulate to prove
that President Cleveland contemplates
something in the nature of vigorous ac-
ton concerning Cuba. He is fully cog
infant of the overwhelming sentiment
of the American people in behalf of
the cause of the Cubans.
Consul-General Lee, after his arrival
in Havana, will send to the President
reports of the actual condition of the
struggle going on in the island. On
these reports the President will base
some action in keeping with the mani
fest sentiment of the American people.

Within the past year fully ten thou
sand American horses have found

dealers over there to appeal to the I'M

the usual result-a system OF inspec-
