the government, though Yigilant and
ready to act energetically,if necessary,
seems TO think that at present there
is no serious dat ger and the danger Of
Republican movements is still less.
Senior Emilio CASTELAR, has just rem
dered service to the cause of order
by publishing a long letter, in which
he impresses upon all good Spanards
the necessity of sinking party differ
ences and remaining firmly united at
the present critical moment. The
project of presenting him with an ad-
dress of confidence, signed by 100000
of his admiring fellow citizens, has
been indefinitely postponed.
The Madrid correspondent of the
Daily News, telegraphing Sunday,
says:
The efforts of the govern ment to-
ward peace are meeting with Difficult.
ties. Ministerallsts say that the
chief obstacle is President McKinley's
mpressionable character, which is
more influenced, they affirm, by his
personal friends and the jingoes in
congress than by diplomatic ,counsels.
The president sometimes appears in
clined, they say, to negotiate for
peace on reasonable terms, but at
other times he seems determined
upon war of conquest, with a view of
convincing Europe that the United
States is great military power which
must be reckOned with.

BATTERY b. MUSTERED IN.

Salem furnishes Twenty-EIght Young
Men-Wln Leave Tuesday Morning.
Captain II. +. Kendall, Of the Sth
United States c1Yalry and Oregon's
mastering officers, accompanied by his
staff of physicians, reached this city
on the Roseburg Mail this morning
and Immediately proceeded to the
examination of and mastering in Of
Salems quota Of candidates for
Battery b. Salem's quota having
been reduced to twenty eight, no
difficulty whatever was experit iced
in selecting that number Of bright
able bodied young men out OF the
tifty.one that had enrolled at this
point.
1t vas generally understood that
of this battery, Salem was to furnish
about fifty young men, and the an
nouncement given out Sunday that
this place would be called upon to
furnish only % men, naturally caused
considerable disappointment among
those who had enrolled their names
with Lieutenant j. G. Rutenic, the
local recruiting officer. The boys en-
rolled in good faith and, with every
expectation Of going, had adjusted
business affairs so as to permit OF their
leaving.
AZ press hour the examination of
recruits was still Ia progress. Out Of
thirteen examined, three we're re-
jected. One was too tall, aDother
under weight Of 120 pounds. The
third was refused by reason OF an in
jury to the spine.
Those accepted will report at the
armory in the city hall building at
$3.50 O'Clock this evening when final
orders relating to their pre- parati0ns
for leaying will be given. Theaooys s
will leave on the Tuesday morning
overland for Portland where with the
Baker City quota OF Battery B they
will be mustered In.

Prospects Of Peace
The Press Paving the Way for
a National Surrender.
The Spaniards are About to Open Direct
Negotiations.

LONDON, July 25.-NO news has
been received in London as to any
special disorders in Spain. A dispatch
from Madrid says that the cabinet
yesterday discussed the question of
censorship, and decided TO continue
to enforce the regulations. The lead
ing papers threaten TO cease publica.
tion unless the censorship is removed,
but isrdoubtful whetherthey will carry
itinto execution.
The press is preparing all classes
for the loss Of Cuba and Porto Rico,
and for the developments at Manila.
Ell impartial, rejecting widespread
opinion advocates direct negotiations
for peace with the United States, and
admits that American annexation Of
Cuba is preferable to Cuban indepeDd-
cree, If Spain must lose the colony,
"since the lives and financial inter.
ests of SpanIards would be much safer
under America"
Great distress continues among the
working classes at Barcelona and
Malaga and it is said that not a
vessel is TO be seeu either at Cadiz or
Barcelona,
The Madrid correspondent of the
Times says:
Peace prospects haye greatly i'm
proved during the last 48 hours. The
diplomatic work of the Duke Alma
dovar de Rio has been more practical
than was supposed, and it is now
tolerably certain that the govern
ment's efforts are entering a new
phase which may gradually lead to
tangible result.
The precise nature Of the change is
secret, but there is little doubt that
1t tends to direct negotiations bet wee n
Spain and United States, there being
NJ inclination to seek the mediation
of any neutral power. The moment
has arrived when America, having
reached the parttrg Of the ways,
must choose between war with a
specific object and an indefnable war
OF conquest.
The present pause in hostilities is
held to prove that the United States
is reluctant to plunge into wider
sphere of action, and it may be con-
iidently predicted that if direct ne
gotiatioDs are opened without delay,
both countries will find their views
on the main point-that Of the future
of Cuba-far from irreconcilable.
The growing dissensions between
the Cuban insurgents and the Ameri-
cans are noted here with great satis>
faction, and on all sides l hear "If
we must lose Cuba, it is better that
the island be annexed by the
United States, because the trait
ors would be thereby punished
a I'd the enormous Spanish interests in
The island would be protected"
The French embassy at Washing
tou seems the most likely channel for
opening negotiations, and the semi
dcal statement thai America
intends TO retain Porto Rico is
r. arded here as hint to Spain to
hurry up.
There is still much talk about Car
list intrigues and preparations, but |

 SUPERVISOR BRITT-I have not said that would vote to buy this property at present or in the near or distant future l am undecided as to that, but when a respectable number of citizens and tax payers come with a petition respectfully worded asking for anything in the gift of the Board of Supervisors which belong to the general public, as does this 1t IS our duty to give the petitioners a re- spectful hearing.
