WASHINGTON LETTER
From our regular Correspondent

From our regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, June 20.-The wal
news is rapidly approaching the
fighting zone. 1t is now known that
Gen. Skaters army has arrived at its
point Of debarkation and that nearly
all of the men have been landed III
Cuba, and are getting ready to open
the fighting campaign on land, and it
is believed that the first expedition to
the Philippines has arrived at Manila.
according to the programm it is
due there today. Unless the Spaniards
put up a much stronger resistance
than is expected Gen. Shafter is
likely TO be in possession ofSsntiago,
before the close of the present week.
1t is probable that if our troops have
arrived at Manila, they will with the
assistance of Dewey's feet go ahead
and take that city without waiting
for the arrival of the rest of the
troops-Gen. Merritt will leave San
Francisco at once with the third and
last expedition, for the present. 1t is
understood in Washington that as
soon as our troops are in possession
of Manila, President Mckinley will
issue a proclamation announcing the
military occupation Of the Philippine
Islands and declaring them to be I'M
der control of the U. 5. Members Of
the Cabinet take no stock in the
European reports connectingGermany
with a scheme to obtain possession of
the Philippines, either through pur-
chase or by force, and it is an open
secret that the Germans would have
to fight if they tried to interfere in
any way over there, further than may
be permitted by Admiral Dewey for
the protection of the interests of
German citizens.
The report that Spanish feet had
sailed from Cadiz for Cuba is treated
lightly by the administration, because
it is not thought that Spain would be
apt to do anything that would please
us so much as would the sending of

Miss Daisy Holmes, a young lady
who resides with her brother-in-law,
NJ. VIII Moreland, near town, went
o 1t in the fields one evening last
week t. drive up the cows when two
young colored fellows, who were
passing along the road, took after her
and chased her to within a short dis
lance Of the house trying to strike
hor with stones as she ran. Uu-
fortunately none Of the men were
about the house at the time and the
young girl was too badly frightened
to 90 to- distant field to inform
them of the outrage or the seoundrels
might have been caught and dealt
with according to the mwritten law
Of the South in sach cases. She was
able to give partial description Of
them and they may yet be caught.

now eligible to high seats i'll the

ed all who would not support popu-
lis,ie doctrines are now extending the
hand across the bloody chasm and
are willing to receive recruits without
examination as to their present creed
or their previous condition. From
all of which we learn that it is bad
policy to be too rash or to drive
friends beyond your call.

The fight for the annexation otHawaii
is egarded as having been virtually
won when the joint resolution was
adopted by a more than two-thlrds
vote of the House, although the
minority in the Senate is known TO
intend to put up their best fight in
the contest which opened to-day in
that body. But the opposition fights
under difficulties that make it practi-
caly impossible for them 10 win.
Secretary Gage has changed his opin-
ion about the willingness of those who
have $500 or less to invest to absorb
the entire s2OO,OOO,OOO in bonds to
be issued under authority of the war
revenue act. 1t is now practically
certain that the big bidders, some OF
whom offered a premium OF one per
cent; will not get any Of the bonds,
as The act under which they are issued
gives the small investors the first
chance to buy all they want at par,
and its seems certain that they will
want them all.
Secretary Alger characterized as san
infamous lie" the report that clash
between himselfand Gen. Mileshad re-
suited in taking command of the army
from Miles. Gen. Miles is in Wash
ington, holding constant confer noes
with President Mckinley and Secre-
tary Alger concerning the Porto
Rico expedition, which he will com;
mand in person, and which will be
started as soon as the government
gets the ships necessary TO transport
the army.
The Cabinet has been discussing
tho possible need Of more troops,
and knowing ones are predicting
another call for volunteers in II few
days. The idea of this additional
call Is to get men enlisted and in
camp so as to have them in proper
condition should it be found necessary
to postpone the general invasion OF
Cuba until fall-sOme assert that the
Invasion has already been definitely
postponed until that time.

This distribution was at the rate
of SO cents per capita of school pop
ulation. Woodstock, being a "sepa-
rate" district, does not receive any Of
this fund. Last year this fund was
43ss.36, or S2l2.34 legs than this
year. This difference is accounted for
by increased valuation of personality,
which last year had sunk apparently
to minimum.
The State Funds previously dis
tributed amounted to Sl0,67l.3S, or
$l.i324 per capita of school popula.
ton, as against $40, 9s2.S2 last year.
But last year the Board of Supervis-
ors gave the schools $529.2S from the

Funds are used for pay Of teachers,
and this year aggregate sl5,212.OS;

donated by the Board of Supervisors

At a meeting of the Board of Su-
peryisors held on Saturday June Is,
1898.
1t has pleased Almighty God in
his inscrutable wisdom to remove from
our midst since the last meeting OF
the Board of Supervisors the expert
enced Chairman of our Board, Abra-
ham CARRIER. His first term as SUI
pervisor being July LIST, 1881, and he
was elected Chairman of the Board
in June 1897, and continued in this
honorable official position until the
day of his lamented death. Mr.. Gar
Der was a man of superior intellect,
broad and comprehensive. His bust
ness ability was exceptionally fine, rs
is shown by his wonderful achieve
ments. lie deservedly held the es.
TEEN of the people wherever known.
4 man of such endowments was a
SPLENDID gift to the world, his county
and large influential family connec-
tions. His departure is deeply
lamcnted, and we have sustained 4
personal bereavement, the county
lost successful and highly esteemed
citizen, and the Board, a man Of good
business taste, experience and one who
throughly knew the wants of his
people: Therefore belt
Resolved l. That we, the members
of the Board ofSuperyisors Of Shen-
andoah County, in meeting assem-
bled do hereby deplore the great
loss we have sustained in the death
of our Official head, one who was al
ways ready to promote the mutual
prosperity of the County, and by his
great insight had learned to know all
of the interests of the County.
Resolved ,, That the State, and
and County of Shenandoah have
suffered an irreparable loss. A loss
that cannot in all respects be restored.
Resolved 3, That we tender to his
family and household, our warmest
sympathy and coincidence in the deep
bereavement they have sustained.
Resolved 1, That n copy Of this
preamble and these resolutions be
spread upon the minutes ofour Board
as A slight token of our appreciation
of the worth of so faithful an official
as Abraham CARRIER, that the county
papers be requested to publish the
same and a copy be sent to the be-
reaved family. Teste:

TIE CONVENTIONS.

We publish in this issue the pro-
ceedings of one of the County Demo
cratic Conventions. Under the orlgi-
nal call primaries will be held next
Saturday night to elect delegates to
District meetings which will select
another set of delegates TO the Char
lottesyille Convention. There is no
difference between the factions as to
the delegates, as both sets will favor
the nomination of Hon. Jas. Hay.
The object seems to be to get con
troll of the party machinery OF the
county. Party principles received no
attention in the Convention on Tues
dav, and even the usual resolution
reafirming their devotion to the CHI
cago platform was omitted In fact
if could not have been introduced
without friction, as theconvention was
composed of Bryan and Palmer
supporters, of the advocates OF the
freecoinage ofsilver at IL to l, and OF
gold standard men.
The bone of contention which was
the cause of the defeat of the demo-
cratic party and about which men
waxed furious two years ag', was
simply ignored as it has been almost
everywhere 1t was permitted to
sleep and was not disturbed by even
the slightest reference. Silver men
and gold men worked harmoniously
in their effort to obtain the control OF
the machinery of the county demo-
cracy. Whether they have succeeded
is question, the solution OF which
will appear hereafter. Much was SAID
about harmony, but to split a party
rarely brings about greater harmony.
No reference was made to the
obnoxious doctrines of the republican
party, which usually receive the at
tention of the democratic conventions.
1t was indeed in itself harmonious
BODY, for all resolutions were carried
unanimously and no divisions were
called for. In county as close as
Shenandoah, the experiment is a
dangerous one. The county is usual
" democratic. In Presidential elections
the democrats generally have ma
iorities over 500, but two years ago,
ON account of the Objectionable fea-
lures in the Chicago platform, some
democrats voted for Mckinley, some
for Palmer, and many refused to at
tend the polls, and as consequence
the county for the flrst time gave
majority for republican for presi-
dent.
A split in the party, without
doubt, means the supremacy Of the
republicans, 80 far as this county is
concerned. Whether the respective
factions love their party sufficiently
to induce them to heal the present
differences for the sake of party
supremacy, or whether they will
stick to 'the rule or ruin" policy, the
future will determine.

WAR ITEMS.


incton of an attempt made by Mar
lano Saliva, young member OF the
Havana volunteers, to assasSlnate
Captain. G eneral Ramon Blanco. The
general was shot in the hip, but is
still able to confer at the palace with
his officers.
Salva's brother had been shot on a.
charge of conspiracy and it is sup
posed that this led to the attempted
assassination. The young volunteer
waited on the steps of the palace in
Havana and shot General Blanco as
the latter appeared on the steps,
emerging from doorway. The would
be assassin was sent to prison IN
Moro Castle, Havana, and will
doubtless be put to death.
According to Washington advices
almost a state of revolution prevails
in the Cuban capital. The volunteers
parade the street, shouting SHOWN
with Blancol" and loudly demanding
thu recall Of Weyler.
Advice received at Porto Antonio,
Jamaica, late yesterday afternoon
announce the arrival of General
Skaters army off Santiago de Cuba.
Up to the time the advices were
sent no attsmpt had been made to
land the troops.
Eight of the best equipped rogl'
ments at Camp Alger, Va, including
the Sixth Massachusetts, will this
week be placed on the auxiliary
cruisers Yale and Harvard, now at
Newport News, and taken to Santiago
to reinforce General Skater. The
two cruisers will also c,rry large
quantities Of ammunition and of
fresh meat rations.
1t is regarded as probable that
Col. VIM. Jennings Bryan and the
Nebraska regiment under his COM
mand will be assigned to the army
corps commanded by Major-General
Fitzhugh Lee.
The PHILIPPINE insurgents have
formed a provisional government,
under the presidency Of Aguinaldo.
Notice has been given Admiral
Dewey that the insurgents want the

ony.
A steamer which has arrived at
Hong Kong from Manila brings word
that the insurgents hold 1000 Span
iards and 1000 natives as prisoners.
A special dispatch from Madrid
says that the Spanish cabinet has
agents circulating in all parts ofSpain
feeling the popular pulse regarding
peace. In Catalonia, the most in
dustrious part ofSpain, the sentiment
is said to be overwhelming in favor
of it.
The Navy Department has receiv-
ell information that Admiral Camara
squadron has left Carthagena to re-
turn to Cadiz, and it is believed in
Washington that its ultimate destina-
ton is the Canary Islands. 1t is not
thought likely that it will cross the
Atlantic
General Shafer, General Garcia
and Admiral Sampson conferred at
Accrraderos, Cuba, and decided upon
the landing places Of the American
troops.
Some sharpshooters, with machine
guns and mountain artillery, have al
ready landed to aid Garcia.
The troops of General Skater
were not molested by Spanish vessels
on their way to Santiago. Their
health is good.
The sending of reinforcements to
