STRONG WAR TALK IN SPAIN.

Madrid, March 2S.-El Liberal, re-
ferring to dispatches from Washington
attributing to President Mckinley d
decision to propose that Spain should
free Cuba for an indemnity, says:
NThe government may answer what It
pfeS Sses, but the Spanish people as a
whole will not deign to discuss this

The United States will maintain the ADJ
vantage if they can place seven iron
clads in front of the Vizcaya and the
Almirante Oquendo, but when our two
ships actually have to fight this ad-
vantage will disappear before the skill
and courage of our sailors"
The semi-ofTicial Ell Globo says: at
a time when the duration of the war
in Cuba is being brought to a close by
force of arms and when peace is being
restored by means of autonomy the
United States throws down the mask
which hid their ambition. In whose
name are they going to establish in

save that of revolutionary bandits? If
the United States will put light to the
powder they have been heaping up so
long this is an inopportune time to do
So"

our means will not be so scanty that
we cannot show the world how a ma
tion fights in defense of its rights"

Berliner Tageblatt telegraphs that pa
per: Spain will not only refuse to
allow American interference in assist

cline to pay indemnity unless it is

authorities were responsible for the

The latest intelligence from Wash

otic movement throughout Spain. A
large number of persons have an

days pay for services in order to raise
a fund to purchase a warship. A com.

MOSQUITO COMMISSIONER.
Is the Title of n New Omclal with Elk
traordinary Powers, I'm .
Mexico.

The following from the Venezuelan
Herald will be Of interest to Vene-
zuelans: ' F"
"The Mexican Central Railway COM
pany is engaged in a new experiment,
which. if il is all that is claimed for it,
will be of inestima BILE value to the res
idents Of this city. To show how ear
1est they are in the ma tier. they have
created new office-that of mosquito
commissioner, and the portfolio was
awarded TO Capt. George C. Sperry, SUI
perintendent of telegraphs for the
company. .
Experiments in different parts of
the United States, and in New Jersey
in particular, have demonstrated the
fact that the determination of the mos
quito can be successfully accom-
plished."
An exchange, in discussing the mat
ter, says: .s.. .'t
Scientific investigation has disclosed
the fact that a few grains of perman-
ganate of potash will destroy all the
embryo mosquitoes in a very large area
of mosquito swamp. At two cents an
acre all the mosquitoes can be killed off
for space OF 30 days. and as the breed
ing time is but two months, four cents
will assure protection for the entire
year. This places it within the possi-
bility of state, and certainly city,
to entirely rid itself of great nuis-
ance."
April and May are the two months in
which the mosquito breeds. They are
purely local in their habits. and not
migratory, as some suppose, and they
seldom move more than hundred feet
from the place of their. birth. Hence
to eXterminate the breed in certain
locality would rid that locality Of the
pest for that season at least. and the
method of determination is so inexpen.
sive that an entire community may be
rid Of them at very small expense.

A GREAT VICTORY.

The Carson Appeal thinks the Sill,
YER party Won q great victory in the
recent election. With four tickets in
the field and with silver TO couture
with, it succeeded in polling a small
fraction over one.third of the vote Of
the State. Every vote cast for the
other three tickets was a protest
against the further continuance of
the Silver party as a political organi
zation in this State. 1t succeeded in
electing the most Of its ticket be-
cause the opposition vas divided.
Had it been united there wouldn't be
a grease spot left of the Silver party
today. If the Appeal can boast over
the fact that the Silver party polled
a little over one-third OF the vote OF
the State, it would have the heart to
dance on it's party's grave. Yes, it
was great ~ victory, but another
like it and there will be no Silver
party left to make another fight. 1t
is pretty dead now and the incoming
Legislature, if it liz like it's predeces-
sors, will choke the remaining life
out Of it.
