1T is an old saying that the democratic
party is constantly making mistakes.
No better proof of this saying can be
found than the fact that nearly every
democratic state convention this year
has endorsed the Chicago platform and
the candidacy of VIM. j. Bryan in 1900.

The manner in which the South
Haven Sentinel is treating Congressman
Hamilton, is about as childish an eX-
hibition of sore-headedness as one often
sees. Such methods have never availed
the Sentinel, and it is safe to say will
avail it nothing in the future.

Above is the excellent county ticket
placed in nomination by the republicans
at Hartford last week Wednesday, and
is the ticket that will surely be elected
by an increased majority this fall. 1t is
a noteworthy fact that every man whose
name was presented to the convention,
was admirably qualified for the duties of
the office to which he aspired, and any of
them would have made strong candidates.
The county convention was called to
order at 1870, and organized by the
selection of j. S. Cross of Bangor as
temporary chairman, II. +. Squier OF
Decatur temporary secretary, and the
appointment of the following committees;
Permanent organization: *. w. Noyes,
South Haven; l.. II. Titus, Paw Paw;
G.. E. Robinson, Lawrence; G.. P. Welsh,
Geneva j. j. Woodman, Antwerp.
Credentials: A. n. Moulton, Decatur;

South Haven; A. w. Myers, Blooming
dale; L. A. Lampson, Covert.
Resolutions: Geo w. Merriman, Hart
ford; c. w. Young, Paw Paw; a. w.
Hayden, Hamilton.
The convention then adjourned until
afternoon.
On reassembling, full delegations were
reported present from every township
and the temporary organization was
made permanent and perfected by the
appointment of o. 4. Graham of Pine

Havana, Dec. 26.-The American
evacuation commissioners viii tomor-
row issue the following proclamation to
the inhabitants Of the island Of Cuba;
THE undersigned commissioners, on
the part Of the United States, having
been invested with power by the presi-
dent to arrange for and execute the
evacuation of Cuba and adjacent is
lands and also taking over the public
property Of Spain, have entered into
an agreement with the commissioners
on the part Of Spain for the final cere-
monies and regulations to be observed
and carried out on the 1st day of jan
uary, and thereafter, until all Spanish
troops shall have embarked for repat-
riation, ana the same is published for
the guidance of the inhabitants and
others outside Of the Santiago district
The Undersigned desire in this pub
lie manner to impress and enjoin upon
all the people of the island the neces-
sity for strict compliance with the
terms Of the agreement, to the end that
public order and due respect for the
gravity of the occasion may prevail,
and especially to admolish all classes
OF people to exercise self-restraint and
moderation, and refrain from giving
cause of ofense or irritation, and from
the exhibition Of excitement, undue
manifestation of feeling, or from doing
any act calculated to produce irrita-
y-tion or bad feeling.
For nearly four months this commits
sion and other officials Of the United
Statesthave been under the protection
Of the Spanish authority. They have
extended to US the most ScrupuiouS
courtesy and consideration. and not an
unpleasant incident has married our
SojoUrn in their midst, and now that
our positions ale soon to be reversed
and they are to become our guests and
entitled to our protection, we must see
to it that they enjoy the same I'M
munity and consideration. Apart from
the eminent propriety of such a course,
the best interests of all classes. Gu
bans. Spaniards and Americans, will be
thereby subserVed.
Acting under a sense of duty to the
people and our government, we give
notice that any violation of the terms
and provisions OF this agreement will
be resented and offenders brought
promptly to justice. Representing all
classes and interests we shall be gov
erened by the strctest impartiality
with the sole purpose Of promoting the
rehabilitation and paci6cation Of Cuba
The preservation of peace, the security
to persons and property, and the estab-
lishment and maintenance of govern
ment, with just laws impartially ad-
ninistered. are indispensable to the
welfare and happiness of the people
We therefore confidently invoke the aid
and cooperation of the inhabitants il
accomplishing these ends"

Washington, D. c., Dec. 23.-The he
publican majority in the new senate
may be considerably smaller than has
been claimed, if the result in three
states is at all as now seems possible.
A Democratic senator will surely be
sent from West Virginia, unless the
Republicans resort to the most out
rageous methods to defeat the will OF
the people, who have returned DEM
ocratic legislature. There are now eX-
cellent prospects that an Independent,
or, perhaps, even a Democrat can De
elected in Pennsylvania, and support
ers of the cratic Governor Pingree
claim he has a chance to win in Mich1-
gan. The latter would be of small
use to the Republican party, to which
he only nominally belongs, and could
not be depended upon in any emergency
whatever. If he is elected. he will be
an irreconcilable Independent, loyal TO
no party, and inclined to be a chronic
kicker His only utility to the Demo-
cratic senators would be to substract a
vote most of the time from the Repu5-
lican column. He is ostensibly not a
candidate himself, but as his only pos
sible chance to defeat Burrows is to
run himself, and as, he is exceedingly
fond of the center of the stage. there
is small doubt that he will appear IN
the race in person.

DELIVERY OF CUBA.

THE commissioners of the United
States and the commissioners of Spain,
in order to accomplish with due
formalities the official delivery of Cuba
by representatives of the government
of Spain to representatives of the gov
eminent OF the United States in accord
ance with the agreement between both
! nations, we have resolved by common
accord upon the following:
'First-At u o'clock on the 1st day
of January, 1899, the battery of salutes
at Cabanas will discharge twenty
one cannon and Immediately thereafter
the Spanish flag will be lowered from
MORO castle and from all official build
ings where displayed and the flag of
the United States shall be raised in it's
place, saluted with another discharge
of tWenty-one guns from the same bat
terry, these SaluteS to be fired by
| American and Spanish artillerymen
respectively. American and Spanish
ships of war that may be in this port
properly equipped shall also salute
both flags, discharging the proper num-
| Der of guns.
Secondhand and naval forces of
the United States which may have
been designated by their respective
commanders and who shall have enter
ed Havana in advance and shall have
! located themselves at a convenient
place, upon hearing the salutes shall
proceed to occupy the Notifications,
edifices and places in the city which
| the American authorities may desire to
occupy and that at all military places
Spanish officers will await the arrival
of an American force and will deliver
the. place to them, leaving it in their
possession. If on that day and hour
there shall yet be Spanish troops in
Havana, they will remain in their
/ quarters and will form ranks during
the time of the delivery of the city,
saluting all American troops which
may pass there, presenting arms to
sound of march from musicians and
bands. The American troops will re-
turn the salute in identical form.
