ADVANCE ON PONCE.
The Invading Army Welcomed by
the People of Porto Rico,


PORT OF PONCE, Porto Rico, July
29.-Without seeing or hearing any
thing Of the enemy, the advance guard
of Gen. Henrys division, which land

here today, taking en- route the cities
of Yauco, Talubo, Sabana, Grande and
Ponulas Attempts by the Spanish to
blow up bridges and otherwise destroy
the railway between Yauco and Ponce
failed, only few fiat cars being burn
ed. Our troops have fired up the loco
motives and are now operating the
read from end to end, carrying sup
plies, messages and men.
At Yauco the Americans were well
coined in an address made by the al
calde, and a public proclamation was
issued dated "Yauco, Porto Rico, Unit
ed States of America, July 49, Maj.
Webb Hayes, of the Sixth Ohio, son of
President Hayes, hauled up the flag on

The people seemed really glad that
the Americans had arrived, but feared
an uprising of the natives in the in
terror, who, it was asserted, would rob,
kill and destroy property, in revenge
for many years of Spanish misrule.
Gen. Henry made a report to this effect
to Gen. Miles and advised that a guard

settled the question of whether the op-

democracy is to be raised from the dead

A prominent Populist, residing in one
of the most prosperous counties OF South
western Minnesota, writes us letter
from which we make the following ex-
tract:
Friend Donnelly:
l believe there is good opening here
for a good Peoples Party paper. This
county ought to support one, and our
business men would patronize quite lib
orally. There is young man here who
has been running job office, he has
quite an assortment Of type, almost all
new, and a good rotary press, is quite
expert in typesetting and would either
help. or sell what he has on reasonable
terms
sincerely hope the fusion crowd will
be knocked out of the state convention
on juno Is, and we be let alone to pad
die our own canoe.
The ground better be looked over first
by any one thinking of coming here TO
start the paper.

Gladstone is dead. A man of marvel
GUS mental activity and industry, but not
a profound thinker upon any subject.
He will not be rated as high by poster
ity as by his own generation. He be-
gan as a Conservative and died as a
Radical. His first speech in parliament
was in defense of the slave trade. He
took the side of the South in our civil
war, because, he said, the negroes would
be more liable to be emancipated if the
southern states constituted a separate
nation! He first prosecuted and impris-
oned the Irish patriots, and then espous-
ed their cause.
He was schoolmaster broadened, but

the wmaking power Of that state. The
supreme court has issued a mandamua
citing him to execute one partiI ular
statute or appear and show cause why
he does not. In characteristic contempt
for the courts this POpulist governor
utters defiance to the mandate and says
his Office is coordinate with the supreme
court, and that the court has no power
to compel him to enforce law IL he
doesn't want to. The court has threat
ened to send him to Jail for contempt
but he replies that If he is sent to the
jail he will pardon himself and the court

Yes Stree! The Northwestern is
right; the Populists have supreme
contempt for such laws as are made in
the interests OF the money power, just
as the honest and upright founders OF
the Republican party had supreme con.
tempt for the laws made by the slave

also gold is stamped and silver was stamped

my opinion the working people Of this coun-
try have but way to political salvation

ling with chimney sweep-win or lose we

From st. Paul Scott Mcdonald suggests
cooperation Of the reform factions by each
filling a part only Of the state ticket and
leaving the balance blank for the other
factions, and says: I'm this way all
parties can preserve their autonomy This
will allow those who hold party so sacred
that they are afraid the party will be disin-
tegrated to do business with others that
are suspicious OF being swallowed up by
some friendly enemy
And so all down the line comes the de-
mand for a firm stand for the principles
sof the Omaha platform, without abatement
and for such cooperation only as means
the triumph of pure POpulism.
