Members of a Kentucky Faction Fail to Heed Warning of the
 Enemy

MIDDLESBORO, Ky, July 23.-The White -Howard-Ba feud in Clay County, Kentucky, which was thought to be at an end. has been renewed. Word has been received here that John Baker and Charles Clarke, leaders of the Baker faction, have been shot from ambush and their dead bodies riddled with bull lets.
 the county seat, where the members of the White-H Howard faction live. They had been repeatedly warned by their enc mics not to come, but regardless of the warning they entered the town.
 They started to return to their country home, but were warned by friends not to go back by the county road but to make a detour through the woods, as danger was scented. They insisted that they were able to protect themselves, as both were heavily armed, but they had travelled less than a mile when they were unhorsed by volley of bullets, both be- ing instantly killed.

 PARIS, July 2S.-Americas diff culties with the insurgents in Cuba and the Philippines are causing some amusement here The Debats last night and the Matin this morning had articles on the situation. The Gaulois also says that the Cubans and Ameri- cans are Tot far from being at logger heads. The Debats says that in the Philippines Admiral Dewey refrains from bOmbarding Manila until the American troops arrive so as not to leave the place to the tender mercieS of the insurgents. AS Aguinaldo re- plies to this by coquetting with the Germans, Spain appreciates the situa- tion by authorizing Augusti to treat with the rebels and so bring the in surrection as quickly as possible to an end" In the meantime Aguinaldo tries to form the semblance of a Govern ment, and is certain that if the United States do no satisfy the aspirations of the Philippines they will have to fight the insurgents just as the Spaniards have to.
 The Debats says it is in Cuba that the deceptions have been the greatest, and that it is there the awakening has been most rude. Far from the Cubans being a sort of colonists rebelling against the oppression of the Spanish King George it is found they are people who find rebellion easier than working. The Matin finds that the dissensions with the Cubans supplies a comic quality lacking hitherto. The Americans, 1t says, have discovered the Cubans are not worth a drop of their blood.
 The extraordinary thing it adds, dryly, is that they make this dis covery just at the moment when the Cubans, having helped pull the chest nuts out of the fire, are timidly urging their right to eat some of them.
 They are to be pitied," says the Matin. Americans thought they were fighting in a Humanitarian cause, that they were averaging oppression and were to give Cuba her independence, while in spite of themselves they find they are simple cOnquerors."
 As to the Gaulois, it attributes the dissension to the Americans dislike of the people of the colonies, and con- cludes that Spain and the United States will sign peace and will unite in dis paraging Aguinaldo and the Tagals and MaximO Gomez and the Cubans.

NO ADVANCES YET

 Not Been Interviewed.

 MADRID, July 23-To-night a para graph is published in all the. papers stating that Premier Sagasta has given no interviews to any correspondents. This is to deny any possible interview which may have been manufactured out of a few words the President of the Council spoke with a representa- tive of American journalism, which he fears may be construed into an inter- view which he has not given.
 The Government understands the country and has stemmed the tide of Carlism by it's active measures. There are absolutely no advances toward peace French and English newspapers are wildly at sea and shipwrecked ut terly in their prognostications.

Would Annul the Contract.

NEW YORK, July 23-George Os- good Lord to-day brought suit in the Supreme Court against the Compania Trans-Atlantica Espanola, J. M. Ca ballos, agent, who, in behalf of the Spanish line, made the bid for trans porting 25,OOO defeated Dons from San tiago to Spain at $55 for officers and $20 for enlisted men. The suit is to annul the contract the quartermas- ters department made with the en- erny's steamships company. The ground for the suit is that the contract is against public policy and gives aid and comfort to the enemy of the United States. Technically, MT.

IL we are in earnest, we must have
harmony among ourselves. If there
should be those who would divide us,
let them be summarily and EN-
phatically rebuked by the people,
who have none but high and patriotic
motives.
After the bold declaration of the
administration in favor of the gold
standard, no sincere bi-metaihist can
ever again, by his vote or influence,
give aid or encouragement to the
Republican party. The issue is
Joined; we cannot avoid it if we
would. Either the friends of bimetal-
lism or the advocates of the gold
standard, trusts, and monopolies
must succeed. Who is not for us is
against us. We are asking no man
to abandon his party or change his
politics. We ask no one to yield any
principle, but in this great contest
we do appeal to all good men to
stand solidly together for liberty
and humanity, and strike down for
ever this conspiracy of gold and

RISING FAME.
Are These Talented Young North
CarOlinians.
biblical RecOrder.)

The story of the Van Noppen boys
may some day be told with pride in
North Carolina; how by selling books
one educated the other; and then by
the same method the other helped
his elder brother to 90 to Holland in
pursuit of his life vision. And the
day even now appears dawning.
For we have the announcement of
Vondel's Lucifer, in sumptuous
edition, translated into English by
Mr.. Leonard Charles Van Noppen.
The young man graduated at Uni
versity. achieving great distinction
especially in Bellies Lettres; and set
out for Holland with the ambition of
giving something of the works of
the masters of his fatherland to the
English speaking world. 1t is APP
parent that he was happy in choos-
ing Vondel first, not only by reason
of his power as poet, but also be-
cause there is such a striking SIM
ilarity between some of his work and
that of Milton that there are those
who say that Milton owes great
debt to Vondel. That Mr.. Won Noppen
has done his work excellently is at
tested by letters from the foremost
scholars and men of literary fame
in Holland. We cannot begin to ex-
press how greatly it gratities us to
see North Corolinian rising in the
field of letters.

The country has reason to be proud
of the Daughters of the Revolution
These patriotic women are striving
to keep alive the great principles
which melted the forefathers of our
country to strike for liberty and to
keep alive the lessons which they
sought to inculcate, and bv their pa
triotism are determined that the mem
ory of the men who made America
free shall not be placed among the
things of the forgotten past. 1t is
much that the Daughters of the Rev
olution can do to perpetuate their
memory and all hail to them.
In the great hurry and hustle of
life Of this day men have little time
to turn aside from their associations
to engage in such matters This
being the case. it is good for the
country, and good for posteritv. that
the women of the land have taken
hold and are perpetuating the mem
orv of those who. in the early strug-
gle of the country for freedom. left
an heritage of patriotism to those
who should come after them.

baltimore Sun.)

New YORK, Feb. 22-United States
! Senator. William Lindsay. of Ken
tucky, sounded political slogan to-
night at the twelfth annual dinner
of the New York Southern Society.
held at the Hotel Savoy.
In the South he sees the salvation
OF the United States, and in the fol-
lowing words he conveyed tha: idea
to POO men who had been listening
to the praises of Washington:
Calling on the people of the whole
country to assist in re-ordaining the
constitution as our fathers made it,
and in re-establishing. in spirit and
in fact, the government created bv
that constitution. the South will
leave behind it sectionalism and sell
fishness, with all their baleful intlu-
ences, and lead the movement through
which genuine love of country and
the true spirit of devotion to the
principles of our American system of
government shall be made again to
animate the hearts and control the
consciences of the American people.
Circumstances have fitted the
South for this patriotic work. 1t has
but to manifest its readiness to meet
the issue in order to secure a follow
ing from the liberty-loving people of
the country strong enough and ear
nest enough to insure success.
MUST RISE ABOVE PETTY POLITICS.
"Are the people of the South will
ling to forego temporary and doubt
full political advantages in the inter
they prepared to rise above the plane
of everyday politics to the end that
the fires of liberty may be rekindled
and the perpetuity of our model con-
stitution and government assured be-
yond all possibility of future peril?
These questions must be answered
while the time for action is still ripe.
with the ability to accomplish so
much againt the most adverse cir
cumstances there is no reason why
the South shall consent that the
forces in national politics which con-
troll the administration of public af-
tairs shall find their permanent rest
ing place without her borders. Ii
the time has ever been when propri-
ETY. requires that measures of gov
ernment should originate with the
North that time has passed away
and passed forever.
The field of national politics is
to-day open. The conditions demand
that Southern craftsmanship shall
make itself felt, not merely in the af-
fairs of the South, but IN all that af-
fects the common interests of our
common country.
