mean Saturday for the purpose of
electing delegates to the Republican
state convention. In the Second dis
trict John w. Canes, of Lowell, who
is candidate for the nomination for
railroad commissioner, was allowed
the privilege of selecting the delegates,
who are as follows: e. j. Gamble, c..
E. Hooker, t. L. Newton, J. L. Scott,
F. M. Miner, E. II. Walker, w. N.
Hamilton, G. G.. Canes, A. Harger, l.
j. Edwards, D. P. Doty. They are said
to favor Scofeld.
The First district delegates made a
muddle of things and held two con-
ventions, the first one selecting re-
ported La Toilette lot of representa-
tives and the other one a Scofeld set
When the first convention met Sheriff
Labuwi, who was not even delegate,
nominated one of his sympathizers,

chairman and succeeded in having him

THE CUBAN SITUATION.

President Mckinley yesterday sent
tho official report of the court of in
qulry to Congress and accompanied it
by message explaining that the Maine
was sent to Havana on friendly visit
ana was conducted to Il buoy by Span.
lsh pilot and blown up by submarine
mine. He also says that he has sent
copy Of the report to her majesty the
queen OF Spain and he believes "that
ole scnsc Of Justice of the Spanish na-
on will dictate Il course of action sug-
gosted by honor aud the friendly rcla-
tons Of the Two countries"
He will follow this up, it is stated,
with another message to Congress to-
day or tomorrow asking an appropriate
tion to feed the Cubans and Il demand
t6at war must cease and also that the
Spanish fotiiia must stop short Of Ilu-
vana. If Spain fails to ucccdc to any
of these propositions the adminislra-
tion is determined to use force. \ Spr-
cial from Washington Yesterday to the
Atlanta Journal says: ".All is anxiety
ana uncertainty today. Anxiety be-
cause all feel that this week is the most
i,ical reached in the Cuban situation:
uncertainty because they do nos know
what will cvcntualc in the next six
days. This will determine whether
there will DC war or peace"
The prevailing sentiment in Congress
is that nothing will be satisfactory
settlement except the absolute indr-
p,ndcncc Of Cuba.
President Mckinley is doing every
thing he can to settle the matter with
out war, all We hope he will Inc sue
cessful. Apart from the horrors Of
war and the loss Of life and property, it
would disturb our business and result
in anything but good to the South.
In the meantime war preparations
continue, and if nothing can be done

TO all outward appearances the
Republican party Is as strong as it
ever was, and likely TO live for half
century. But there are other in
dications that it is on the verge of
final dissolution.
When one picks up the thick-and
thin Republican papers of the day,
he cannot but be struck with the
virulence with which they attack
both the public and private charac-
ter of every one who dares to differ
from ithe bosses who contrel the
party organization.
These organs seem charged with
the mission of destroying not only
the reputation but the business in
terests and investments of every man
who undertakes to think and act in
dependently, or refuses to aid in the
contamination of schemes of public
and private spoilation Matched by
unscrupulous party leaders.

The Ohio State Journal, of Friday,
contained the following, which must
be true as it appears III Hanna
hand organ:
'Hoodooed' is what the Hooking
valley people are thinking.-Great
business depression prevails-Not a
mine working-Great uneasness."
Jacksonville, Ohio, July 22.-Special
That the Hooking Valley Is or has
been 'hoodooed' is an assured fact
with nine-tenths of the inhabitants.
The past few weeks have witnessed
more disasters among the business
enterprises of this city than ever
occurred before in year. A feeling
OF uneasiness prevails among the
mine owners and operators. Busi-
ness men and merchants complain
of almost sudden falling off of trade
during the past week or so. The
miners are dissatisfied and restless to
get to work again. In fact, the en-
tire valley, with the exception of a
| few factories, is as dead as in the
midst of big strike. Everybody is
looser and a cloud of depression
| hangs over the idle and discouraged
community. Right in the midst of
what should be the busiest season of
the year, when the lake trade is at
its height and all the mines working
every day, not wheel is being turned,
and the massive hoppers of the mines,
with their intricate and costly mach
inery, stand idle and rusting in the
sun. Never before in the history OF
the Hooking Valley has the present
situation been duplicated. Nc
trouble, everybody willing and
anxious to work, prices satisfactory
and not mine in operation. The
suspension, which, it is hoped, will
be temporary, has developed during
the past month, and grew so rapidly
that before the astonished people o.
the valley realized it, the good work
and prosperity they were just be-
coming to enjoy seemed to fade away
and leave them little better thar
when they commenced to work
Everything at a standstill. Groups
of idle men upon the streets, who {
few weeks ago were busy in the
mines, that are now as good as clos
ed. Everybody is on the qui viv'
after the sudden and unexpected
business disasters of the past few
weeks, and wondering what will
happen next"
AS long as you persist In placing
such hoodooes as Hanna and Gros
venor in office, you may expect t.
see the red flag of failure hanging
over the remains of prosperity.--Re

ence in the Metropolitan Opera

himself an orator Of rare dramatic
force. For more than an hour he

in the simplest language and with
few gestures, but with wonderful
force and pathos, he told the story
of his immortal exploit in the har.

made no reference to the part borne
by himself, almost the whole of his
thrilling story being devoted to the
eulogy of his gallant companions
and of the magnificent bravery and
the implicit obedience in the face

The Big Convention.

DAYTON O., Aug. 4.-The local
committee here are making the
most ample and complete prepara-
tions for the Democratic State Con-
vention which assemblies here on
the 23rd and oath days of August.
First and foremost the committee
secured excursion rates, covering
the entire period of the convention,
from all the railroads in the State,
making the cost of transportation
nominal.
There will be no increase in the
hotels and restaurant rates, and
preparations have been made to
care for 10000 visitors from abroad.
Dayton is full of attractions, and
the various subcommittee will
see that the visitors have access to
and enjoy all of them.
The great National Soldiers
Home will be in special gala attire
for the occasion, and visitors will
be welcomed to it, and given a COM
plete idea of its patriotic objects
and grand dimensions. This at
traction alone will be worth the
trip.
But there are countless others in
this beautiful and historic Miami
valley all of which will be both ac-
cessible and welcome to visitors.
The beautiful parks in and around
the city will each furnish some
striking entertainment and novel
form of elevating amusement.
There Will balloon ascensions and
games of base ball, between crack
teams, on each day, while the city
itself will be decorated from end tc
end with gay bunting and the Ma
tional colors, while bands on ell the
principal squares will discourse in
spring and appropriate music.
In short nothing will be left un
done to delight and entertain al
who come, and the city itself invit
es the people to come from every
part of the State and partake of it,
hospitality, assuring them that the
most ample preparations have beer
made for the care and comfort of al
many thousands as may come.
