 The Mccoy gang did every thing in their power te get Mr. Thos. M.

Bell, and will not only vote for him but will do Ieverything Tn his power to see that he is honestly elected. Like all other good men, he knew that the Democi acy declared by plur- ality vote for MT. Edgar Brewster as the nominee tor Sheriff, and when the Mccoy proxy com mittee took it from hlm, like loyal Democrat, he turned his back on Nc Coy. Now, for this, "Bucki Blooms" Commercial has attempted to vilify and islander him. This, the Democracy of the county will resent, by casting their votes for D. c. Bell.

NO PEACE TALK At WASHINGTON.
Diplomats Think Spain Is Heading That
Way, but Think 1t n Failure.

Washington, June 3.-lf the queen re-
gent of Spain has instructed Senior
Castillo TO ask the powers 10 intervene
for peace that movement has not yet
taken any form In Washington, either
at the state department or at any Of
the foreign embassies. Among diplo-
matte officials It is thought TO be quite
possible thst Spain is feeling her way
toward securing peace. but it is not be-
lieved this will meet any active as
sistance from the great powers. As ore
leading diplomatic official said. Spain
finds herself In the samH condition of
Isolation that France was IN 1901. At
that time u. Thiers, afterwards presi-
dent. went from capital to capital seek
ing 10 secure the cooperation of Europe
with France. but his mission was a
failure
The mission of Castillo is said to be
like that Of Theirs, and the diplomatic
officials believe 1t will meet with the
same fate. II Is known that Spain has
counted most on arousing the active
interest Of France, but it has been un-
successful. The French authorities
here have not heard of any negotiations
for many weeks past. Indicating that
the authorities at Paris have not taken
up the propositions of SenGr Castillo for
Intervention in behalf of peace.

news of the first Importance, but that
they did not look for it Immediately.
The firmness with which they have in
sisted that Schley could have had no
general engagement with the Spanish
forces at Santiago appeared to be based
on a full knowledge of the plans under
which the commodore is acting, and the
greatest concession that they would
make towards admitting that fight
had taken place there Tuesday was to
say that Schley had possibly detected
some earthworks going up and had
razed them with his shells. They were
confident that he had made no attempt
to enter the harbor. 1t is believed now,

and in command off Santiago with an
augmented force interesting events may

These are expected, tCo, n"tWith-
standing the fact that no troops have
yet started from Tampa, rs was estab-

ment yesterday afternoon. The insur-
gents are known 10 be in force in the

Captain DOrst the war department not
only has been in communication with
them. but has supplied them fully with
good weapons and an abundance of
ammunition. The headquarters Of the
| best of the Cuban generals, Garcia, are
distant from Santiago only seventy-five
miles. so that II is possible Sampson
feais strong enough with their support
to begin the assault by sea upon the
Spanish fleet and forts without await

troops from Tampa. The trend of the
news that came To Washington from

there is some ground for the expecta-
