Kentucky Democrats.

Hon. w. J. Stone, of Missouri,
acting chairman of the Democratic
National Committee, has written
letter to National Committeeman
Urey Woodson, of Kentucky, express
ing the hope that Kentcky Democrats
will unite on the ticket nominated at
Louisville. Governor Stone says;
at is really clear to me that Ken
lucky Democrats should lay aside
mere personal considerations and
strive to elect the ticket nominated
at Louisville. 1t must be remember
ed that it often happens that the pro-
ceedings of large bodies like the con
vention at Louisville are character
ized by more or less disorder and
seeming unfairness, especially when
personal rivalry becomes intense
But, after all, it rarely happens thai
it becomes matter of supreme i'm
portance whether one candidate oil
another for party honors is success
ful. What the Democracy OF Ken
tucky and of the nation is most IN
terested in is success at the polls. a
loss of Kentucky at this time woulo
be q serious blow to the party and
the nation"

Dispatches from Steubenvllle, ONO,
saw that X p. Schott, who is one of
the many candidates for the Repub-
lican nomination for Congress in the
Sixteenth District to succeed the late
Lorenzo Danford, is out in card in
which he proposes what he calls a
practical solution of the nomination
problem. He says he has been
charged with psrsimouy in the mat
ter. but is, in fact. willing to give a
goodly sum in exchange for the nom.
ination.
He suggests that it be put up for
sale to the highest bidder, and agrees
to start the bidding at $4,000. IL
nominated, he would give nothing
for the election, in order to avoid the
Garfield law, but he would agree 70
give the whole of the salary or the
cflice to the education of young men
in the district, giving $3.50 pfr annum
TO 4 young men in each OF the D
counties in the district.
Mr.. Schott says the nomination Is
Going to the man who offers the most
money, anyhow, and he thinks the
bidding should be done in the open.

Manila, Aug. s The advance OF
General Macarthur from San Fer
nando, resulted in one Of the mosl
important battles in the Philippine
campaign.
General Macarthur, who had 0OC
men in the field. defeated aud drove
back force Of > 200 Fllipinos.
The purpose of the attack WAS TO
adyance tho northern base of opera
tIons frcm Fernando to Angeles
This Was accomplished aud the
American Infantry are tonight At
Angeles, waiting for the artillery,
which has had great difficulty In
moving, owing to the wet ground. A
garrison of GOO has been left az San
Fernando.
The American position at San Fer
nsndo had long been unpleasant.
The rebels almost surrounded the
town aud fred nightly into it, the
Americans not replying, except on
extreme provocaton. 1t was neces-
sary to keep 500 to GOO men on cut
post duty constantly.
Angeles is one of the richest towns
north of Manila and is considered TO
be better base of operations than
San Fernando.
The movement had been planned
for some time, but was delayed by
raids Finally, two days Of sunshine
dried the rice fields sufficiently to
warrant the attempt.
The country orr troops passed over
is coyered with rice fields and bam-
boo thlckets, the hardest possible
ground for marching The mud, in
places, was knee deep. The weather
was extremely hot and our troops suf
fored greatly. But there was no
falteriDg.
The American loss in tho lighting
at O'clock was known to be eight
men killed and 2G wounded The
loss may possibly exceed these fig
ures, rs the line is five miles long
and 1t is impossible at this hour to
hear from every point. The reports
indicate that the Ninth Infantry suf-
fered most. The attack was opened
at o'clock this morning.
The rebels were well protected by
trenches and seemed not to lack am.
munition, but they we're unable to
withstand for any length of time the
hail OF shots the American artillery
and infantry poured in on them aud
retreated, leaving dead and wounded
on the field. A dozen prisoners were
captured by our troops. The Fiji
pinos, il seems, were surprised, ex
pecting the American forcees to move
against Tlco.
The Americans covered five miles
in the first FIVE hours, and st o. clock
mad advance six miles along the rail
way, stretching on each side Of it for
two miles.
Battery NJ, of the Third Artillery,
and a hundred men of the Iowa Reg
iment made feint toward the town
of Mexico, while the main body of
troops, consisting Of the Iowa Regi-
ment, the Seventeenth Regiment and
battalion of the Twenty-second, ,un-
der General Wheaton, on the right
and the Ninth Regiment, Twelfth
Regiment and Bells Regiment, un-
der General Limscum, on the left,
advanced steadily, pouring their fire
into the rebels and receiving heavy
fire in return.
The firing, except at isolated
points, had ceased by 10 o'clock.

A We'll for Irrigation.

Harry Polsley, the well-digger, was
here on Wednesday morning and he
tells us he has finished the big we'll on
Douglas S. Cones place in Antelope
Valley, and 1t is now in good working
order. Under his supervision a force
from five to nine men have been.
working upon the we'll for thirty-seven
days.
The we'll is just twenty feet square,
and thirty-two feet deep. The walls
are protected from caving by a frame
of eight-inch lumber, the tagging being
two inches thick, and in all there are
more than 5000 feet Of lumber used.
The cost Of the we'll to MIR. Cone will
come close to $1,000, but this will all
be returned in the first year.
When Mr.. Polsley left the we'll on
Wednesday morning there were eleven
feet Of water in it, and a continual
stream that would fill a ditch two feet
wide and one foot deep did not de-
creased the flow into it. During the
construction Of the work a ten-inch
pump was kept in operation all the
time to keep it free Of water, and 1t is
this pump which is o used on the
well. The object of sinking it vas to
secure more water for the alfalfa fields
which Mr.. Cone has set out, and the
success Of his first attempt will likely
induce him to sink other wells.
There can be nc denial Of the fact
that the lands in this country In gen.
eral would be vastly benefited If. they
had waiter to be used for irrigation and
Mr.. Cone, who is fortunate in the pos
session of some Of the most productive
lands in the State, has seen the nee
essity Of more than the big supply Of
water nature has placed upon his lands
to conduct a successful modern farm.

also that the duties under the American

NO OFFICIAL NEWS.
Neither Gen. Otis Nor Admiral Dewey
Rcnnrfcd hy Gable Yesferday.

WASHINGTON. April 90.--Not line of
official news from Manila was received to-
day by either the War or Navy Depart
ment. Since the opening OF the campaign
against the insurgents scarcely a day has
passed without dispatches from General
Otis and the absence of advices to-day Is
taken by the war officials to mean that
pending further negotiations on the part
of the Filipinos for peace, the situation is
precisely as General Otis reported il yester-
day. IL is known that supplies are being
pushed forward from Manila to the troops
at the front i'm order that they may be pre-
pared for an advance movement should such
action become necessary. There has been
no suspension of hostilities. but it is re-
garded as likely that General Otis, while
not losing any of the advantage he has
gained. will afford the Filpinos reasonable
time 70 consider the situation and terms
he presented them to the ENJOYS Of General
Luna.
1t is expected confidently by officials of
the War Department that the way to peace
now being paved. further negotiations will
be opened by the insurgents. 1t is believed
TO be probable that the next important
news received from Manila will be that the
Fflipinos have made additional overtures
towards conclusion OF hostilities.
The War Department has been notified
of the arrival at San Francisco from Manila
Of the transports Grant and Sherman. The
officials are greatly gratified at the rapid
run oe the Sherman. She made the trip of
more than 1000 miles in twenty-six days.
