The condition of the roads and

The condition of the roads and
of the town streets at the present
time is a very striking object les-
son in the necessity for good roads.
Farmers and residents at dis
lance find il practically impossi-
BILE to come to town. People do
ing business at the coal camps or
residents there DESTROYS of coming
here have TO either cruelty overtax
their horses, very materially reduce
their loud and their speed, or put
on extra teams. In town, ladies
and many children are kept at
home for several days because of
the filthy state not only of the
roadways but of sidewalks outside
the business streets and of eros
sings in the very heart of town.
All this is a material injury to all
kinds of business. There are so
many times in the year when these
conditions exist that in the aggre-
gate large sums are lost to busl-
moss men. 1t would be economy
to make good roads, both in and
outside the towns roads properly
drained and with surface that
would shed water instead of slowly
absorbing it,

YESTERDAY IN WASHINGTON.

Washington, April 6.-Wednesday was
prolific OF reports OF mediation on the
part OF the European powers, but a
summary of all the news on this point
Is that the powers OF Europe cannot
agree, and that their interference would
be unacceptable to the government Of
the United States. Accompanying the
diplomatic comment was an undercur-
rent OF suggestion that developments
in Cuba were not unlocked for, and that
the pressure OF the powers and the pope
on Spain might yet bring about an
srmistice in which both Spanish troops
and insurgents would participate.
Viewed from the official standpoint the
time for that has gone. and there is little
likelihood that the insurgents could be
induced to lay down their arms even for
q time
At the capitol tremendous effort was
made yesterday to have congress sup
port the outlined policy Of the president.
"A general belief was expressed when the
house adjourned that majority of the
committee on foreign affairs was ready
to support Mr.. McKinley's plan and that
a resolution in line with the recommen-
dations OF the president would be re-
ported from the committee.
The Kaleidoscope OF international
events appears TO be moving so rapidly
at Madrid as to make possible q new
and possibly remarkable change in the
aspect of affairs. The message is ready.

intervention by the United States to
prevent hostilities and provide succor

known, without stating that interven-
tion should be immediate. 1t makes an
argument against recognition OF inde-
pendence at this time, and leaves 1t
clear that in the opinion OF the admin
istration 1t is the duty OF this govern
ment to supervise the affairs OF the ISL

The sentiment among the Republl-
can members OF the house Is strongly
in favor OF both Intervention and the
recognition of Cuban independence, and
that the Maine affair will be brought
prominently forward in the resolutions.
Some of the extremists want the whole
action OF the United States predicated
upon the blowing up of the Maine

make to SPANS refusal to accede TO

MEDIATION.
France and Austria Especially Active
In Promoting Ends of Peace.


Washington, April 6.--It is known at
the embassies and legations that France
and Austria are most active in endeavor-
ing to bring about a common basis for
concerted action. 1t is understood also
that the exchange has proceeded suf-
ficiently to acquaint the powers with the
fact that any steps they may take to-
ward mediation will be acceptable to
Spain. There Is not the same assurance
that it will be acceptable TO the United
states. and indeed it is the prevailing
feeling at the foreign establishments
that the tendency i'm the United States
Is against sny mediation from foreign
sources. This is regarded as making the
action OF the powers much more difil-
cult.
Mediation BIZ the powers must be
based on the Willingness OF both parties
to accept 1t. a distinction is made in
this case from that OF the concert of the
powers when they intervened TO stop the
Turko-Grccian war, and when Russia.
Germany and France combined to COM
pei Japan to relinqush the Tung
peninsula as part OF her war indemnity
from China. In both of those cases the
European powers carried their action
TO the point of a positive demand backed
Up with show OF force. 1t is said among
diplomatic officials that this attitude
was due TO the character OF the COM
batants, Greece, Turkey, China and
Japan. IL Is said. not having attained
that status before the world that the
United States and Spain occupy. For
that reason IL Is pointed out the action
OF the powers In the present crisis would
be purely OF a friendly character care
fully designed to avoid wounding the
feelings OF either party.
A dispatch from London saying that
Great Britain had finally declined to
enter the concert OF the powers places
n new and mos; important condition on
the European movement and one which
may defeat II. 1t has been known that
Great Britain was holding out most
strongly against any tender OF media
tion on the ground that II would look
like outside pressure TO force the hand
Of the United States. The attitude of
Great Britain has been that the war In
Cuba should cease i'm the interest OF hu-
manity at large.
Sir Julian Pauncefote had conference
with the French ambassador, Mr.. Cam
bon, whose government has been most
Instrumental In securing a concert OF
the powers. Certain circumstances left
no room for doubt that the two ambas-
sadors were comforting concerning the
course Of their governments on the Gu
ban trouble.
Archbishop Ireland went TO the ONCE
OF Assistant Secretary Day. He was
admitted at once. evidently by appoint
ment. The archbishop remained about

parture the assistant secretary started

troll OF Cuban affairs, to sweep aside this
entire system and to declare that IL Is
a failure before II has even been tried?
Plain justice dictates that a system OF
home rule. brought forth after the deep
est solicitude and consideration ana
based upon what the Cubans themselves
have long desired, and on what the
United States government deems most
fitting as q settlement. should not be
lightly dismissed on representations OF
the press, or even on the representations
of men of sober Judgment.
"As to the reconcentrados. can only
say that the DEGREES OF concentration
have been revoked. and urgent steps
are being taken for the relief of these
poor creatures. While there is no doubt
of the misery OF their condition, yet
the government Is making the most he
roic efforts to alleviate this condition.
As to the insurgents. they have borne
arms against Spain for three years, en-
falling terrible loss OF life and money;
and yet, believing these men to be mis-
guided. the government has sought to
regain their confidence. The insurgents
are invited to join the Spanish soldiers
In laying down their arms, so that a
period of calm may be given during
which Just and wise councils may pre-
vail for the permanent betterment OF
Cuba. Whether this will succeed / do
not know.
You ask me as to the latest phases
OF negotiation. OF this cannot speak
owing to the restrictions OF my position.
! can only say that despite the animosi-
ties aroused / believe that calm counsel
will yet prevail and that the United
States and Spain will be able TO solve
this problem on a basis just and honor
able to all concerned, and without re-
course to arms. i fully recognize the
earnestness, patriotism and intense
vigor OF the American people, but /
feel that II is not improper for me to
suggest thatsct such a profoundly SOL
emn moment earnestness and strength
should be tempered with calm Judgment
and disposition TO look at both sides OF
the question and not alone at one side"

Washington, April 6.-The Spanish
minister. Mr.. Bernabe. consented yes
terday to talk on the present condition
OF affairs. He spoke freely and at times
with intense eagerness. The Interview
is authoritative throughout.
II am still hopeful of peace" said he.
THAT may seem optimistic at a moment
when such passions are aroused. such
naval and military preparations are
going on. and when the current of public
sentiment seems to, be that war is in
evitable. 1 cannot say that base my
view that peace will prevail upon any
direct Official information. On the con-
trary II Is my individual Judgment. based
solely upon the conviction that in these
enlightened days two self-respecting
nations. made up Of men and women Of
high aspirations and noble instincts,
cannot, and Will not resort to the last
brutal expedient of war. 1t would be
too wanton. too criminal. too offensive
to all the dictates OF civilization and
christianity for such an awful conse-
quencs to be brought about
