To THE BITTER END.-The retire.
ment Of Gen. Campos and the ap-
pointment Of Gen. Polavieja as Cap.
tain General of the Cuban Islands is
construed by the insurgents to mean
that the home government had deter
mined upon inaugurating a reign OF
blood and terror ia Cuba. A change
in the Spanish cabinet likewise seems
TO confirm this view. Gen. Polavieja
is veteran soldier, has had much ex-
perience in quelling former troubles,
and has earned dreadful reputation
for being man of iron will.

The G. o. P.

Republican politicians tacitly admit
that the immigration convention
lately held at Seattle was quite as
much of party gathering as any
thing else. An Ellenshurg correspond
ent Of the L. J. more than intimates
that it was an adroit excuse, planned
at headquarters, for a meeting Of the
clans to secure harmony, if possible.
Whether the exchange of opinions
has led to any closer feeling or pros
pect of unity of action, seems very
questionable, when the Ellenshurg
correspondent admits that Eastern
Washington is surfeited with candi-
dates, and cites the fact that kittitss
with small vote has no less than
three distinguished gentlemen who
are willing to serve the State. Eu-
gene Wilson wants to be Governor,
Auditor Frost wants a full pull on the
teat he has just had showed to him,
and Senator Helm wants to go to
Congress, to succeed Mr.. Hyde.
There are a dozen other aspirauts for
that position as we'll as for that OF
Secretary OF State. Other candidates
for the executive nomination are Sen
ator Lesh, Col. Cosgrove and Lieut.
Gov. Luce. 1t is understood that
Judge Turner has struck it rich in
mining which has cooled off his ardor
for the executive nomination, but he
may appear in the arena later in a
contest for Senatorial honors, armed
with the "sinews of war" drawn from
the bowels OF the earth.
The effort to place the party on a
war footing is not thought to be mop
perfume. The correspondent notes an
apathy among some of the old leaders.
They seem to be demoralized. New
men and new combines have made
their appearance, and the old-timers
are dismayed at the prospect OF being
turned down. The chairman OF the
Republican State Convention in
formed the pie-maker of the RepubH.
can, the other dry, that the party is
almost wholly disorganized, and that
its success the past few years has been
more the result OF fortuitous circum.
stances than intelligent effort. He
says that the 6. o. p. will wake up
some morning and find only a grease
spot to make its last resting-place, if
more brains is not put in its methods.

Another incendiary fire occurred at
Goldendale last Tuesday night, by
which two buildings were destroyed.
The buildings were the property OF
John Doneen and James Taylor.
Tsylor's building was used rs house
of prostitution, and Doneen's stood
hut few feet distant. Tie
fire originated in Doneen's building,
which had been empty for many
months. All the furniture in Taylor
house was saved, and the building
covered by insurance. Taylor says it
is the work Of his enemies. who have
failed to drive him from town by the
recent arrests, and are after revenge.
Had it not been for the heavy rain
Tuesday, both depots and every grain
warehouse in town would have been
destroyed.

not added very materially to his repu.

are not near. He doubtless knows
how il is himself.

AN exchange says you ought to see
the progressive girl in boomers jerk
her red bandanna out of her pistol
pocket and "shoo" the rooster off the

to zee the rooster break around the
fence corner, making q noise that
sounds very much like "Good.god,
good-god, goodgod."

he manager OF the Gladstone politely
informed him that n check for the same
would be acceptable, whereupon the
travelling salesman promptly rendered
him draft on Messrs. Stovall g. Co. of
Danrllle. Va. The genial manager was
a little suspicious regarding his guest
nnd concluded to wire lMessrs Stoyall

was receivyed. saying that Mr.. Dand-
ridge had not been In their employ for
over two years. Before the message was
received. however. the boarder had quiet
