WASHINGTON. May l2.-Contrary to

standing what appear to be confirma-
tory newspaper advices relative to the
presence of the Spanish Cape Verde
fleet at Cadiz, the navy department
officials are beginning to entertain
strong doubt of the accuracy Of the re-
port. 1t was not possible during the
course of the day to obtain anything
like an official confirmation OF the re.
port received the previous day, but this
is not to be wondered at in view OF the
success which the Spanish government
has so far met in keeping secret the
movements of its naval ships. Until
news comes from Admiral Sampson OF

cannot be said definitely what pro-
gramme shall be decided Oh as regards

state and revolution impending, he
did not know whether the men at the
head of the government were strong

Spain by heroic sacrifice of her pride.
Unless they did, he said, the disaster
Of Manila would be repeated, for it was
now patent to the world that SPAIN g
military and naval strength was greatly
inadequate to cope with the forces of

Stu Feared the Spanish Fleet May Inter

WASHINGTON, May 12.-The revival
Of guesses as to the whereabouts OF the
Cape Verde squadron has caused re-
newal of anxiety as to the Oregon.
The ship was at Bahia at last accounts
and it is believed to have started day
or two ago up the Brazilian coast to
join Simpsons squadron in the West
Indies. She will have to make a run
of 5000 miles, which will occupy the
Oregon about 10 days only, as she is in
fine fettle and averaged '3 knots an
hour on the long run around from San
Francisco. However, it is believed
that Admiral Sampson is as well
posted as any one in Washington as TO
the conditions existing in the West
Indies and he doubtless will do what
ever is necessary in his judgment to
safeguard the ship in her run up the
coast.

WHO IS THEIR CANDIDATE?

A time has arrived ii the campaign
when the Virginia & Truckee railroad
Combine should take the public sotar
into their confidence as to announce
their candidate for United States Sen
ator. It is far too great a STRAIN upon
the public credul,ty to assume the VIC
ious, abusive and scurrilous fgntthey
have been waging against Senator
Stewart has beneath it only motives
of patriotism. We call upon the Com
bine to produce theft candidate. The
people are entitled tc know. Every
Legislative candidate at this stage OF
the campaign who is not prepared to

United States Senator has something |
M his sleeve which he IS anxlons to
hide from the public. The people
should know.
In OREGON, which is a Silver State a
goldbug was foisted on the people tor
six wears through the same tactics
which have characterized this cam
pa;en. When 1t was too late the
people woke up and kicked them
selves to find out how It happened.
Senator Mitchell, who never cast a

asailed by a hireing press and a horte
OF characte1less villitiers who so be
smirched and befouled his great
character that the people for the time
lost sight of the true manhood and
nobility beneath it. They questioned
his political reCtitude aud honesty
and he was destroyed. When the
mud and fouedness had cleared away
after the campaign was over, and
when it was too late, the people found
that they had been the dupes of scam
dial mongers and libelers.
The same fight is going or IN this
State now against Senator Stewart
We boldly challenged the flth-sling,
ers to prove one in fifty Of the charges
they are making. They could not dc
it. They made the attempt and back
ed down, not to TetTaCt the lies PROVED
against them, but to cease to prove
ANYTHING in order to have the more
to devote to mud-slinging.
We say to the people of Nevada: l
it not evidence conclusive hat tn

they are bringing against him? lie
