interest Of peace, towards urging upon
Spain the futility of further prosecuting
the war, and inducing her to sue for
peace on the basis of the relinquish-
ment of Cuba, the promise of war in
demnity and the occupation of Manila
by Admiral Dewey until the war in
demnity is paid. 1t was stated by one
of the most influential members of the
diplomatic corps. an ambassador. that
such step by Spain was the logical re-
suit of the crushing Spanish defeat,
and that Spain herself should be the
first to recognize il as measure for
her own self protection and self preser-
walton. He did not know whether the
men at the head of the government
were strong enough and brave enough
to save Spain by a heroic sacrifice of
her pride but unless they did, he said,
the disaster of Manila would be re-
peated, for it was now patent to the
world that Spain's military and naval
strength was grotesquely inadequate

The vigorous character of the celebration
attending the flag raising at Turkey Run
colliery yesterday afternoon stirred up the
whole town and hundreds of people swarmed
in the direction of the colliery. The chorus
of breaker whistles with the accompanying
explosions of dynamite led many people
who had not heard of the intended flag
raising to believe tn something terrible had
happened in that vicinity. The Shenandoah
City cOliery employees supplemented the
thirteen shots at West Shenandoah with
thirteen more and also dipped their large
dag three times. A patriotic engiaeer on
the p. & R. railroad kept his whistle blow,
ing for long run while passing the scene Of
celebration.

B0STONS ELECTION.


Boston, Dec. 14-Returns from the
city election were very slow in coming
in, owing chiefly to the number of can
didates for alderman and school COM
mittee. From figures at hand at 10
o'clock this forenoon il was assured
that the Democrats elect the street
commissioner. both members of the
board of apportionment. a majority
OF the board OF aldermen and most OF
their school committee candidates.
This is taken by many politicians as
proof that Boston. except when abnor-
NAL conditions prevail. is a Democratic
city in municipal affairs. IL has given
"A majority for the Republican candi-
date for governor three years in sue
cession. The Democrats will have
gained aldermen out of the twelve
members of the board. all that it was
possible for them TO elect. The Demo-
Gratis owe their success i'm electing their
school committee ticket to the fact that
the element which has usually been
pretty we'll united against their can
didates were this year divided The
vigorous onslaught made by the cam
paigners OF the Public School associa-
ton upon the Republican nominees
merely resulted in the election of Dem
ocrats as the Democratic managers
had freely predicted and hoped before
election. The city went for license by
a good majority, but in many suburban
wards the yes" vote was greatly re-
duced, as the result of vigorous work
on the part of the opponents of the Ii
cpnS,s system.
