Madrid Talks of Peace

Madrid, July 1O.-The rumors of
peace are universal. They fill the
press and all feel that high politi-
cal circles are inclined to end the
struggle on the morrow of new re-
verses, or after a land victory
which will satisfy military and ma
tional honor. 1t is beginning to be
understood that the loss of the
squadrous means such an increase e
of the difficulties of communicat-
ing with the colonies that the
armies in the West Indies are finally
ieopardized by dearth of provisions
and munitions.
The government is comforting
with the British cable companies
f)r the reopening of communica-
ton with Cuba, including Santiago
and Manila. 1t is thought the
Americans will not object to the
government being placed in a posi-
ton to consult with the governors
of the colonies without loss of time
on the means of defense left them
and on the disposition of the troops
of the loyal inhabitants.

THE AGONY OVER.

Well, the Bowie county agony is
over and we know now, who is to
make the race for county officers,
The conditions over in Bowie cOun-
ty is different from the ones we are
confronted with over in Miller In
Bowie county, the officers when
elected, hold onto their Office as
long as life last should they be so
fortunate as to win at each elec-
tion and some of them have been
known to run independent, even
after the people have voted them
out of Office in primaries. The past
election found every officer ready
and willing to serve again, although
they have been in Office for from
six to eight years, and many OF the
old hold fast while they did not
have opposition were scratched out
rageously bad, thus showing that
the voters were tired of their
greedy disposition, and will take
any opportunity offered to give
them a rest.
This itch for Office and trying to
perpetuate themselves on the peo-
pie as well as their posterity has
weakened the democratic party in
Bowie county, which is now con-
fronted by a citizens ticket which
threatens to give battle in the tall
election. In. Miller county, the
officers are allowed two terms and
they have never been known to
offer for a third term, except in
rare cases and then they were de-
feated. This country does not owe
men offices for life time and then
give the places to their children,
because the father happened to
have a pull in his time. If
there is anything we do detest it is
an officer who never turns his Office
loose until he is strangled off.
There are just as good men out OF
office as there are in and we know
that they are as true to the party
as some of them we have elected
for years, who have turned on
the party and tried to disrupt it by
organizing the negro vote against
the party that had houored them.
We ask the democrats to stand
by the Bowie county ticket as nom
iuated in the primary vote, but see
that the next time these long term
fellows offer that they are defeated.
This must be done to hold the par
ty in line.

Washington, July 1O.-The news
of the bombardmeht came at the
close of a busy Sunday in the war
department. Previous to the re-
ceipt of this dispatch the secretary
of war had heard twice from Gen.
Shafter
In the early morning came a tele-
gram saying that he had ridden
over the American lines and was
gratified at their condition.
A second dispatch reported that
the lines we're impreguable, thus
removing any fear of a successful
sortie by the Spanish troops should
a maneuver of this kind be at
tempted.
Both kilograms, which also en-
phasized the fact that General
Skaters physical condition had
greatly improved, were promptly

sion him considerable qualification
In answer to the question as to
whether or not he believed there
had been a bombardment OF San
tIago, Gen. COrbin said he thought
there had been firing today, as
preliminary to the more serious
business on the morrow.
This being the case, the attempt
to take the city will probably be
made today.

monstrate to the country that Presi-
dent Mckinley not only said what he
meant in his message, but meant what
he said.
That the De Lone letter made
something clear to the President and
the State Department there can be no
doubt, while the terrible accident to
the Maine has forclbly illustrated the
danger of further delay. Another
reason for immediate action should
the ultimatum likely to be submitted
to Spain he accepted, is that if peace
could be at once restored to Cuba,
the starving population may yet save

until March will make it necessary for
the people of the United States to
continue to feed these people who
are anxious to rebuild a country which
has been so devastated and depopula
ted that more than generation must
pass into the grave before the sunshine
of prosperity again brings cheer to
this sorrowing and desolated land.

were found to be present, being the

President Mckinley Will Demand Inde.
pendenoe for Ouua, With Sl00,000,-
600 Indemnity.

Robert p. Porter, whose close
friendship with President Mckinley
is we'll known, says that Mr.. McK,n-
ley will shortly send to the Spanish
government an ult,matum, demanding
that complete freedom and independ.
ence be granted to the insurgent
Cubans. Spain is to be indemnitied
to the extent of $Ioo, 900. Bonds
are to be issued to that amount and.
if necessary, the United States Will
take charge of the Cuban customs
and pay the interest on the bonds.
The Court OF Inquiry appointed to
investigate the Name disaster left

convene on board the Mangrove or

held at Key West. before a report is
made. The officers composing the
board are Captain w. T. Sampson,
of the Iowa Captain French E.
Chadwick, of the New York Lieu

Divers have been at work on the

search has been confined to the Cap

The tremendous consequence OF
refusal to accept this settlement will
be on Spain. The President of the
Republic has in my opinion fully
weighed the consequence to us. He
knows full we'll that mere oeclara-
tion ofwar may cost our government
a hundred, nay hve hundred millions
of dollars, but he also knows that at
his back will be a united people OF
100000 freeman who have chafed

action. That the situation is critical

CANDIDATES.
SUSPENSE
In Washington. Officials Await the
Courts Report.

The excitement during the past
week in Congress and outside, attend
ing the Maine disaster in the harbor
at Havana, has almost equaled that
occasioned by the assassination of Pre-
sidents Lincoln and Garfield. The ex-
citement, however has somewhat sub
sided, and is now passing away. There
is a condition of painful suspense,
and the public now patiently awaits
TO learn only the cause of the disaster.
The course of President Mckinley
and his Cabinet associates, in suspend
ing judgment until the cause of the
destruction of the Name is ascertain.
ed, is generally approved in and out of
Congress.
The prompt refusal of Captain Sigs-
lbee and Consul General Lee, and the
approval of their course by the au-
thorities at Washington, of not allow
ing the Spanish authorities at Havana
TO JON in the exploration and inquiry
into the disaster, is commended on all
sides.
What the authorities here and
throughout the country want, and
what they are waiting for, are the
facts properly vouched for from per-
sons upon whose integrity and intelli-
gence they can safely rely.
1t is we'll understood that the Span
ish Government in Havana and at
Madrid are as anxious, and almost as
deeply interested, as the authorities
at Washington. in solving the mystery
of the tremendous disaster.
The United States officers, who
have charge of the matter, are regard
ed as authority for the American
people. The investigation is in COM
petent hands, and the country is quite
ready to believe the official statement
of the Naval Board now charged with
the purpose OF prosecuting the in
quiry.
