dent and every supporter of the Republic
at home must feel greatly pleased at the
result. We all knew Mr.. Dole would make
a most excellent impression. He has done
so, and friends who crowded to see him
have spoken warmly of it. showing at the
same time little surprise that Mr.. Dole was

Therefore, as we have said before, the
problem cannot be solved by the solutions

have a displacement of 1900 tons, may be
launched early in July. and that the Prin-
cesa will mount her guns this year..

Reproducing Senior GOWNS sensational

marks: 1.-THE copied expressions of this

In its issue of Feb. rs the Impartial re-
ports its Havana correspondent as sending
on this subject the following message: The

Ell Nacional, has been cabled from Madrid.
Senior Gown says that it deals with an

rather than the Queen Regent that is rem
dering the situation of the latter more
critical day by day.
One of the most striking features about
the present situation here is the extraordi-
nary ignorance which prevails with regard
to the United States and its resources, even
among the leading politicians and statesmen
here, save perhaps Moret, Sagasta, Silvela
and CASTELAR,. The remainder have abso-
lutely no notion of the conditions that pre-
vail in America, and fOndly imagine that
because the regular army does not exceed
Is 900 men it necessarily follows that Presi-
dent Mckinley would not be able to put
into the field more than 10000 men at the
utmost to fight against Spain. OF the citi-
zen army, of its training and OF its efh-
cheney they know here absolutely nothing,
and have been given to understand by the
various naval and military officers who pre-
tend to have investigated the defenses of
the American seacoast that these are of
the most incomplete, obsolete and made
Quate character
The national characteristic of the Span
lard is an intense conviction of the SUI
periority Of Spain and of the Spaniard over
every other nation in existence 1t is this
pride and arrogance which fills him with
such contempt for foreigners of every kind,
and especially for Americans, that he will
not even take the trouble to learn anything
about these foreign countries, especially
about the United States, the country which
above all others helped the colonies in South
and Central America to rebel against the
mother country and obtain their indie
Possibly if the people at large here, who
are STEPPED in ignorance, knew more about
the United States they might not be so
very eager for conflict and the war fever
might abate. AS the matter stands now
they are so convinced of their own over
whelming superiority, both by sea and by
land, that they cannot understand or toll
crate that Sagasta should delay inf1icting
upon the yankees" the condign punish
merc which the latter are declared to de-
serve.
A factor in the present situation which is
worthy of being noted is the attitude of
the clergy and episcopacy: Instead of using
their spiritual influence in favor of peace
they are doing everything that they can,
both from the pulpit and in pastoral inter
course with their flocks, to foster the war
fever acting, presumably, in Difference to
instructions. from Don Carlos. to whom
they are all devoted, since he has prom
ised if he ever secures possession of the
throne, to restore to the clergy their form
er possessions and powers. They are all
bitterly opposed to the present administra-
ton, not only because its liberal doctrines
are opposed to their principles but likewise
because Sagasta, the prime minister of the
most Catholic country in Europe, is a Free
mason and grand master of the craft in
this kingdom.

Messrs. Wray and HOrd Issue a Card
to Stop Party Discomfort.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
SHELBYVILLE, Ind, March 5.-Messrs.
Hord and Wray publish in to-day's Demo-
crat the following statement in regard to
an alleged combination of candidates to Sc
cure delegates:
I'VE desire to say that no such combina
ton exists. and candidates and their friends
are doing great injustice TO their opponents
Judge Hackney did try to organize a COM
bination of candidates and others to
secure the selection of precinct COM
mitteemen favorable to allowing him
to select delegates from this coun-
ty for himself to the State convention.
Recent events have made it clear to us
that this was never accomplished, and no
candidate now in the field ever consented
to 1T. Allow us to assure each candidate
that the committee recently selected will
give-and the old one, if it had continued,
would have g1ven-every candidate fair
board, fair count, and to have the result
declare as cast and voted. And candidate,
or any one for him, who now attempts to
use the ring or combine candidate charge
to further his nomination should now be
met with sharp rebuke and it should dis
parage his aspirations. Let each man make
a fair, clean and manly contest and win
on his own merits, or not at all
"a. F. WRAY.
TX. NJ. HORD."
This card was brought out probably by
the fact of the want of harmony so evident
in Democratic ranks and the announcement
to-day of the withdrawal of Horace G..
Bates, candidate for nomination for county
commissioner, caused by a demand upon
him from Chairman Campbell for funds for
campaign purposes.

Agninst Defense Fund.

PITTSBURG, March 5.-The vote on the
proposition to establish a defense fund for
the United Mine Workers has been officially
counted and the result announced by Ma
tional Secretary w. c. Pearce. 1t is de-
cidedly against the plan. the vote from all
locals in the different mining States show
ing q majority against the defense fund
scheme of 2102. The plan suggested at the
national convention was to assess each
miner % cents a month to create a fund to
be used in case of trouble. Many strikes
could be won it has always been claimed
if the organization had some ready cash at
it's disposal to keep strikers in line. The
delegates to the convention were certain
that when the question was left to refer
endum vote of the organization it would be
passed almost unanimously.

structiOn of the Maine.

structiOn of the Maine.
LONDON, March 5.-Accordng to the
statement of a man whose cards describe
him as being an electrical engineer, and
whose name cannot be disclosed, but has
been forwarded to Washington, he sold to
Spanish officers in London, several years
ago, a large number Of mines, eight or ten
Of which were placed in Havana harbor.
He says they were made in a-special way,
and had a specially and peculiarly con-
structed cable, which, he contends, he can
positively identify if the smallest piece is
produced. Some of the mines, the man con-
tinues. were fixed so they could be fired
from a fort, and two of them had bulbs, ar
ranged that they would explode on a YES
sci coming in contact with them. But the al
legged electrical engineer adds that he does
not believe the bulbs would be used in
water as shallow that of Havana har-
Dor. He exhibited the plans Of one of these
mines which, he pointed out, was the most
likely TO produce the effect described as
causing the wreck of the Maine. 1t was
numbered ''2," and was constructed to con-
tain 500 pounds of gun cotton. This Is the
story told by the man, who gives one the
impression that he has been sergeant of en-
gineers, or has held some similar position.
He was apparently thoroughly posted on
electrical matters and submarine mines.
The man who made the foregoing statement
is an Engiishman, and he says he is willing
to go to the United States as witness.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, March 5.-The
end of the seventh week of the strike in
this city finds the operatives very much dis
because affairs are not going to
suit them. The funds of all the unions ex-
cept the spinners' have been reduced to al
most nothing, and even the union members
have to depend on outside relief to a large
extent. While the union members have
pulled together pretty well all through the
count of the weavers' fines question. The
weavers have maze the fines question the
primary consideration in the strike SitCa-
ton, and the manufacturers have declared
that they would not listen to any terms of
settlement as long as the weavers stuck to
the fines issue.

there cannot be any doubt that they are
serving a good purpose. in spite of the meas
ure of ridicule to which the members are
good-naturedly subjected by their friends.
A member of one of the Don't Worry Clubs,
when asked why he had iSined, replied that
he did SO as to get rid OF WORRY about his
debts Before he joined he worried exceed
ingly, but now he let his creditors do the
worrying. One result had been that H. had
gained over twelve pounds in weight. Next

club. through means OF which he would en-
deavor to form the habit of paying cash for
everything. In time, he hoped, he would
become a valuable member of society.
These clubs are regarded very seriously by
the members and they seem to be founded
and governed upon the principle that all
men are eager to become better and hap
pier. Some are inherently weak, and they
gain strength by association with others
who are morally tronger. AS the clubs are
rapidly multiplying, there is reason to be-
1eve that the community will be all the
better for the Introduction of the fads.
