NEW YORK, Oct. 1S.-A special dis

Rodriguez is now encamped north of

supposed plan being to attack the west

Spanish General, Gonzalez Munoz, can
engage Maceo at Cacara Cara
CaliXto Garcia and Avelina Rosa, with

acing Puerto Principe City, moving
west from Cascorro by irregular march
es toward Ciego de Avila-
The "Herald's" correspondent at
Ciego de Avila reports that a party of
400 insurgents crossed the central
trocha near Jagua on the morning Of
the Sth under a sharp fire from the
Spanish forts. The rebels moved rap
idly westward. 1t is believed that
Rabfs rear column Is following up the
invasion in Santa Clara simultaneously
with Mayia Rodriguez entry into Ma
tanzaS Province.
The party crossing at Jagua did not
lose a man. They made no response
to the Spanish fire, treating it with
contempt.
A fllibustering expedition composed
of twenty-five men, arms and ammuni-
ton is reported to have disembarked
on the night of October 14th on the
coast near Punta del Indice between
Havana and Jarcuco. The leader was
unknown. 1t is understood that the
party came from the Bahamas.
Major Valencia met and conducted
the expeditionists to General Aguirre' S
rebel headquarters in the interior.

WASTE NO VOTES ON sIDE-sHOws.

The Importance of electing the COM
ing winter a Republican United States
Senator cannot be overestimated. That
Governor Mckinley Is to be chosen
President Is certain. He must therefore
have the support of a Republican Con-
gress. The selection Of a Populist- DEM
ocratic Senator from California might
be the knot to tie his hand, while the
selection Of a Republican Senator may
be the one thing that will give the new
Congress to the Republican party.
There have been made In this county
nominations upon a ticket claiming to
be Republican that is a bolt from the
party, and every effort Of which toward
success will have the effect of drawing
strength from the regular Republican
nominees, thus imperiling the Senator
ship. Not one of the men on this side
show ticket has the remotest chance of
election. Every one of them knows
this to be true. His candidacy. there
fore' means blow at principles he pre-
sumes to represent. Electors have then
before them perfectly clear PROPOSE
tion--it is the election Of Republican or
the Democratic Populistic candidates
for the Legislature. There is no middle
hope for those who assume to stand
against both the parties.
Every vote cast for the so-calIed In
dependent Republican nominees will be
vote against the Republican party
and vote for the organization that
was born OF hatred to the Republicans.
and that has grown to the proportions
it has reached on announcement of the
party. 1t has carried its animosity
toward Republicans so far that it has
coaiesced with the Democracy, each
bnrying temporarily the issues between
them, and uniting to down the very
party to which these independents pro-
fess attachment.
These side-show people have gone off
on single question, namely, free COIN
age of silver, their claim being that the
State organization having declared that
in its opinion free coinage ought to be
achieved at 16 to 1, therefore the action
Of the National Convention, the su-
preme tribunal of the party, and alone
commissioned to fix its policy, should
be opposed in a national election. This
is a narrow and Illogical view. The
National Convention did not declare
against silver. The Republican party
has never pronounced against it. 1t
always has been a bimetallic party.
The National Convention, composed of
delegates from all the States and Ter
ritories judged, and wisely, that a dif-
ferent method must be employed to at
tain the same end declared for by the
California Convention That Is all there
is in the situation.

Comment of Paper That is Support
ing BRYAN.

tfrom the Sacramento County Ledgerl
To the Republicans who. like tho
ecltor OF this journal, feel called upon
to support the head of the Democratic
ticket for the reason that the men
thereon represent the true principles,
according TO our views on the financial
question, we want to say few words
IN relation to Grove l.. Johnson. We
do not believe 1t Will be inconsistent in
US TO ask you TO stay by him and give
him not only your vote, but also to ask
you 10 work for him. We sincerely
and honestly believe you can trust this
great question with him. He is man
whom you all know, or most Of you
know him. You know just as well as wa
do there has never been a demonstra.
ton here in the interest of the whita
metal that he was not a party to it.
He was its friend In the last Congress,
and we are sure he will be just as good
friend in the next Congress. We
have no doubt in the least but WHAT
Mr. de Vries intends to carry out his
promises to the letter; on the other
hand. he is young man inexperienced
in legislative work, and cannot, no
matter how deSirous he may be- ac-
ccmpliSh as much for silver as Mr..
JC hnSon, who has had the experience
and advantage of one term In Congress.
besides he has had the advantage Of
being on the right side of the silver
question all his life, consequently he
is better posted upon the needs and de.
mands of the white metal Take tho
proposition purely in a business way,
my Republican friends, is 1t not best
to trust any and all classes of business
Ia the hands of man of experiences
than novice? Yes, we believe so, and
think you will concur. Therefore it is
g. plain proposition that Grove L. john
son is the best man for you to put your
trust in and support him with your

The Esteemed State Librarians Death
Yesterday

w. Dana Perkins, pioneer and State
Librarian, died at his home at 1109 .
street, at 11:45 O'Clock yesterday morn
ing, after a long and severe illness.
Deceased was one of the most widely
known men in the State, having arrived
here in 1850. He was born in Jefferson,
New Hampshire, February IL, 1881,
and was therefore nearly 81 years Of
age. He came to California in 1880.
and engaged in mining at American
Bar, in Placer County, which he finally
discontinued to take charge of the hotel
at Pine Grove.
The deceased was twice elected to the
the office of Tax Collector for Placer
County, and gave universal satisfaction.
He was next chosen Sergeant-at-Arms
of the Assembly, which position he held
through two sessions of the Legislature.
After this Mr.. Perkins acted for sew
eral years as travelling land adjuster
for the Central Pacific Railroad Com
pany, which position he held up to the
time of his election as State Librarian,
seven years ago. Four years later he
was reappointed, having at the time
of his death a year and half to serve.
On the Sth day of December, 1895, Mr..
while in San Francisco on business con-
nected with the State Library, and while
his relatives and friends hoped for his
ultimate recovery, they hoped in vain,
and yesterday his long life of usefulness
terminated.
Dana Perkins has been an active
worker in the Democratic party since
the admission of the State, and ever oc-
cupied a prominent place in its councils.
He was a general favorite with all who
knew him, and his friends We're legion.
His generosity and hospitality had be-
come a by-word, and thousands will
mourn when it is known by them that
Dana Perkins is dead.
The deceased left a widow and two
sons, NJ. Dana Perkins, present Assis-
tant Librarian, and William Perkins,
tant State Librarian, and William Per-
dns, who resides in Los Angeles.
The family home was in Rocklin,
Placer County, prior to Mr.. Perkins be-
coming State Librarian.
The funeral will take place at 2 o'clock
TO- morrow
