SPAIN SQUARING HERS ELF.
The Government Tells the People IA Q
Note That the Spanish Army Has
Not Been Conquered.

MADRID, Aug. 13-The question of
the acceptance of the protocol having
been finally settled and its signature
explicitly and definitely authorized,
the government is now considering
the domestic situation for the best
means of allaying the excitement and
propagating the idea that Spain's sur
render is not so complete as indicated
by the bold terms of the protocol. AS
the first step in this direction a semi
official note has been issued.
1t is as follows:
The government is of opinion that
the most critical period of the peace
negotiations has now arrived, as it de-
ponds upon the arrangement of de-
tails as to whether the peace will be
more or less advantageous. Spain
wishes to preserve her sovereignty over
the whole of the Philippines, to which
she proposes to accord all political and
administrative reforms consistent
with the maintenance of her sover-
eighty.
In regard to the evacuation of
Cuba and Porto Rico, it will be asked
that the army be allowed to depart
honorably and that assurance be given
guaranteeing that Spanish and for
eign interests will not suffer The
army which has not been conquered
will return to Spain with its guns,
arms and munitions.
In regard to the Cuban debt, as the
United States refuses to assume it,
| Spain will endeavor to arrange with
the Cuban treasury to pay it when the
island is able.
The question of a treaty of com
merce will lead to considerable discus
sion and the matter will be submitted
to a commission of diplomatists under
the presidency of Senior Castillo.
The Liberal thinks the only bright
feature of the peace treaty is the i'm
mediate suspension of hostilities. sc
that our unhappy soldiers will M
longer have to die without knowing
wherefore"
Continuing, the Liberal congratu
lates the country upon the fact tina
the war is ended, though Spanish rule
in America is completely terminated
1--WE reserve the right to criticise the
protocol when freedom is restored Il
the pre- S."
In conclusion the Liberal says
"Those who pretend that the events o
the last three years were simply acct
dents which do not affect Spanish his
tory are deceiving themselves"

NEW CONFEDERACY FORMING
Delegates From Salvador, Honduras and
Nicaragua Meet to Organize United
States of Central America.

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, July 26.-The
delegates to the convention to form a
constitution for the states of Salvador,
Honduras and Nicaragua continue
their sessions here almost daily. The
work, however, is progressing slowly.
The delegates have discussed the first
Ii of the articles in the printed form
of a constitution which they have as a
guide and have decided on the fol low
ing principal features:
First-The organization to be con-
federacy instead of a central union of
the three states.
Second-The name of the confedera-
ton is to be THE United States of
Central America"
Third-There is to be a federal dis.
trict composed of the civil depart
ments of Chinendega, in Nicaragua;
Cholutra, in Honduras, and La Union,
in Salvador, all bordering on the Gulf
of Fonseca.
Fourth-The organizing capital is to
NC AllsbtDdISl. OLi 1oAciAlN's IL viz
department of Cholutra, Honduras.
The permanent capital is to be deter
mined by the first congress, and will
be located at either Amapala. Cholutra
or Chinendega.
Fifth-There is to be one president,
instead of a triple-headed tribune, as
at first proposed
In a recent session delegates from
Salvador protested against what they
termed "a spirit of antagonism to Sal
vadOr'' in some speeches made by GER
tain delegates from Nicaragua.
1t is thought probable that either
President Bonilla, of Honduras, or
President Zelaya, of Nicaragua, will
be chosen as the first president of the
proposed confederacy.

ANTI-skL00N
hally Addressed by Rev. .. E. Hager-
Plans and Objects Of the League Full.
ly Discussed.

The temperance rally in beh III of the
antl-saloon league at the opera house
last evening filled the building to near
ITS utmost capacity. Prot. Curtis r..
Waters presided, Rev. G. A. Cline lead in
prayer, Rev. A. G.. Shephrd read the
scriptures and the choirs Of the Presby-
terrain and NJ. f. churches furnished the
singing.
Rev. Z. f.. Hager, the state lecturer of
the "ntl-saloon league, addressed the
meeting, explaining the objects OF the
league, which were to educate the peo-
pie TO the necessity OF driving out the
open saloon. Prohibition would not
have been "a failure in this state had the
people not left the law to be executed by
falthless officers. AS it was it decreased
the liquor traffic by GG per cent. Like
Elijah OF old who had his victorious sea-
sons and his defeats, so reform move
'nents now had their ups and downs.
But there was great announcements
these days. In half OF the South pro
hlbltlon had absolute sway. In the
north the great Catholic church WAS
taking advanced ground on tins ques-
ton and would accomplish much to
bring about a reform in thus line. The
anti saloon league %antagonizes all unjust
Legislation on this subject, antagonizes
the spirit OF lawlessness every where, the
spirit OF apathy prevailing on the ques-
ton, antagonizes the saloon itself aud
which fear TO take a position against it.
In 2o1 cities in this country there ia q
saloon for about every % meI who pa
t~ronize them.
The anti saloon league does not an
tagonize the church, for in it is the hope
OF all reform, nor does it h%ntagonize po-
lltical parties on matters OF politics, nor
individuals, but gets its non-partisan
supporters from all parties. Voters, not
the saloon keepers, are responsible for
the license saloon, and yet would dis.
dain to take the saloon keeper as an as
s~ociate. Saloon keeping is anarchy. /,
is bad for any place, but worse for a
place with a state educational ,n.titu.
ton. The purpose Of the league is tc
organize and drive the legalized saloon
out OF every city in the state at the
spring elections. The speaker made q
strong plea for driving the saloon out Of
Madison and closed by taking up "A mon
ey subscription to help carry on the
work throughout the state. He an
nounces that strong temperance speakers
would be put II the field and that w
might expect to have Mrs. Lake of st
Louis SO popular at Chautauqua time il
our city to speak within Il month.
