There are many reaons for believing
that Spain is not disposed to hasten
the peace settlement; that, indeed, she
Is ready upon slight pretext to unsettle
the terms Of the protocol, and throw all
peace negotiations over, in the hope Of
delay that will enable her to secure
better terms under a neN- commission,
or by diplomatic correspondence. In
the meanwhile Spain is bettering her
army and her naval conditions. She
has secured money and has entered up
on system Of correcting her army
equipment and refitting her forces
generally. 1t is the opinion of General
Sickles, who better, probably, than any
other American, understands the dips
and spurs Of Spanish character and
political chicane, that the Spanish Cab
met is insincere in its present attitude
toward the Peace Commission, and that
1t would be rather pleased than other
wise to have the negotiations now pend
ing thrown over and new ones inaug-
urated, and possibly would welcome a
new declaration of war as a means Of
wringing better terms from the United
States. If any such motive actuates the
Spanish Ministry, it will awaken to q
bitter mistake presently. A new threat
Of war will not intimidate President
Mckinley nor the people Of this coun-
try 1t will rather result in more severe
terms Of peace being exacted.

There are some Of the Peoples Party
who do not propose to have their prin-
ciples sold out for the price Of vulgar
place, even though the chiefs Of the
party so decree 1t in an infamous bar
gain with the Democracy. We confess
admiration for men who have the cour-
age to stand up for principle and pro-
test, as did the Populists of I.assen
County the other day in County Con-
vention assembled. They resolved:
We are unalterably opposed to any
proposition of fusion, or so-called un-
ion of reform forces, believing that
such movement had its origin through
the desire of machine politicians to
destroy the Peoples Party, and is sup
ported solely by so-called Populists,
who, Democrats at heart, and pie
hunters by instinct, are bribed by the
promise of Office by machine politicians
belonging to the Democrats, to assist
in the destruction of our party.

The Repair Ship Vulcan.

As the naval vessels on duty in the
West Indies were bound to need occa-
sional repairs, and it was deemed mex
pedient, unwise and impracticable to
send every ship back to navy yard
whenever she got out of order, the navy
provided Admiral Sampson
with the repair ship Vulcan a complete
blacksmith and construction vessel of
the most modern description, to keep
with him and attend to the neeps of all
vessels not to be met by the machinists
of those ships. The Vulcan is under
command of Lieut. Commander Harris.
According to a report from her July

Dor she had repaired thirty-six ships
and furnished repair stores to forty

All a Mistake,

For some time pRst Foreman Mum,
OF the O. Ii. shops, has been about mid
way between sick and we'll, and yester-
day at noon he concluded to take rest.
He reported his intentions to Division
Master Mechanic De Young, and at
noon his friends on the streets were
surprised to see him lettering around
in his Sunday garments. Quite q num-
Der questioned him regarding his un-
usual actions, but he gave them no
satisfactory answer. To say that
his movements worried his friends
does not half express it, and one of
them said that possibly he was going
to get married. A hint was all that
was necessary and it ha6 been given.
The report spread fast that Foreman
Mum was going to take unto himself q
bride. and that his purpose up town
was to secure license. The reporter
reached the shops about the same mo-
ment the false report did and can testi-
fly to the rapid rate at which it travelled.
In short time the matter was being
discussed all the way from the master
mechanic 3 Office to the coal shutes.
Presently Mr.. Mum appeared and
congratulations were in order. Mas
ter Car Repairer Borcherding was first
to approach the foreman and offer his
best wishes. He was followed closely
ny hdSScF ncCudulC Do Dung anu
Master Mechanic VIM, who unlOaded
their wellwishes upon Mr.. Mum be-
fore he had time to explain that it was
all mistake. His presence in the
yard was soon detected by the shop
men and in short time he was COM
pletely surrounded by his friends wish
ing him bright and prosperous fu-
ture.
When the smoke cleared away the
reporter found Mr.. Mum in very
weak condition. He explained that it
was all mistake, and all that was
necessary to prove his assertion was
for the reporter to call at the county
clerk IS Office and see if license had
been issued him. 1t was q mystery to
him how the report ever started. He
said he bad not been feeling we'll and
just concluded to take rest, and that
he had not been away from the shops
two hours before the report was being
circulated that he was going to be mar
ried in the evening.

climber. The engine is expected
most any day and its arrival is looked

Mountain. Yesterday AFTERNOON
Master Mechanic VIM, of that road,
was roaming about the interior
of the boiler shop when one

mountain climber had arrived. Mr..
VIM rushed nervously to the door
only to behold q small boy leading q

About one month ago my child,

attack of diarrhoea accompanied by
vomiting. [ gave it such remedies as
are usually given in cases, but as moth
ing gave relief, we sent for a physician
and it was under his care for week.
At this time the child had been sick
for about ten days and was having
about twenty-five operations of the
bowels every twelve hours, and we
were convinced that unless it soon OBJ

War Notes.

1t Is reported now that Commo-
dore Watson will sail for Manila
instead of SPAN. 1t is feared that
trouble Ia brooding in the Philip
pines. The Germans are acting
suspicious and the insurgent gen.
eral, Aguinaldo, is becoming
puffed up by his successes and be-
gins to think he is big enough to
handle the islands without the as
sistance of the United States.
Ignorance, treachery, ambition
and threatened foreign interference
make the situation embarrassing
and the only safety lies in having
sufficient force ut hand to meet
any emergency that may arise.
Hence it Is probable Watson may
go to the aid Of Dewey.
Spain is afraid to sue for peace
and afraid to fight. She is afraid
Of her own subjects both ut home
and abroad.
Gen. Toral did the only manly
thing that was left when he sur
rendered Santiago. lie was beaten
but his men were not all DESTROYED
nor was the city in ruins, but both
death and ruin were inevitable had
he refused to capitulatc. Now.
Spain without the moral courage
to vindicatc her general, threatens
to punish, the valiant commander
for surrcndering the city.
Poor old Gen. Garcia feels as
though he had been sighted in no,
having been invited to help rule
over Santiago, and he threatens I.
retro to the mountains and aban
don the struggle.
