One of the netable events in Europe,
is the assembling ef the Spanish Amerl-
can congress at Madrid The first ses~
sion was held Friday Every South
American republic, with the exception OF
Bolivia, will be represented. The con-
gress is the outgrawth of a sentiment
that began to develop in Spain soon after
the close of the Spanish American war.
Spain, filed with resentment against the
United States, conceived the idea of cul-
tivating p close commercial alliance with
her former colonies Her proposals to
this end were accepted with an eagerness
upon the part Of the South American
republics that occass0wed no little sur
prise in the United States The proceed
ings of the congress Will be watched with

to the crusade the present French minis

NO DECISION ON SPLIT
Colorado Democratic Contest
Still in Committee.
PLANS OF THE .0LDBUGS
THEY MAY NOMINATE A TICKET
THIS YEAR.

Denver. Colo, June THE Demo
cratic state convention met at the Ia
Dor Grand opera house in this city
today, with the largest attendance of
delegates ever seen at state cOnven-
ton in Colorado. The first question be-
fore The convention was as to which
of the contesting delegations from
Arapahoe county is entitled to seats.
The convention adjourned until to
morrow without settling this point.
When. at 11:15 a. m. State Chairman
Milton Smith called the convention to
order, he announced that the caucus
ing during the early part of the Gay
had resulted ia an agreement Whlcn
would place responsibility Ter any de-
cision directly upon the convention It
self. No temporary roll was presented,
but it was announced That committee
on credentials would be chosen, con-
sisting of one from each county, each
delegation from Arapah0e county haN-
ing a representative, and no further
action would be taken until the com
mittee was ready to report
Colonel 3. F. MONTGOMERY of Teller
county was then presented as temper
arv chairman. Colonel Montgomery
said that William ]. Bryan had already
been named by the people as their
standard bearer, and it only remained
for the members of the Kansas City
convention to ratify the peoples choice.
Mr.. Bryans name was greeted with
loud and prolonged cheering.
At 1920 p, m. the convention TOOK
recess until .. M.
At 4 o'clock the announcement was
made that the credentials committee
had not vet reached an agreement, and
that the convention would stand ad-
journed until 10 o'clock tomorrow morn
ing.
At 1 o'clock this morning the creden-
tails committee was in session at the
Brown Palace hotel, with the prospect
of continuing for some time. A major
ity of the members, it is said, favor
the seating of the Thomas delegation,
and there is little probability o. an
agreement being reached. 1t is likely
that majority and minority reports VIII
be submitted to the convention. and the
contest fought out on the floor on the
convention.

The Soldiers Parole.
(Pearson's Magazine Gondon.]

(PearSOnS Magazine (L0ndon.)
Parole, it must be understood, is a
purely voluntary compact. The captOr IS
not obliged to Oner to parole his prisoner;
the prisoner is not obliged, ana cannot
be compelled, to give his parole. If he
does so he viii probably be released on
pledging his word not to serve during the
existing war II ne refuses ne will re-
main captive until the war is over or
until he can make his escape. The usual
parole pledge extends only TO active serV-
ice against the enemy. A prisoner re-
leased on parole is not breaking his con-
tract If he drills recruits, quells civic
connections, or fights other enemies.
A soldier taken prisoner has no author
ity to pledge himself never TO serve
against a particular enemy, lie can
not throw off thus lightly the duty
he owes his sovereign or country, and If
he makes any pledge IL must be confined
TO a limited time. Moreover, If a prison.
er should make pledge not approved by
his own government he is bound to re-
turn and surrender himself to the enemy
IN the British army a soldier can only
give his parole through a commissioned
officer. Even a nOn-cOmmisstOned officer
or an officer of inferior rank cannot give
parole either for himself or for his men
without permission from his commanding
officer. The United States authorities, by
the way. give greater liberty of parole
than is the case with the British army.
A captured prisoner who has violated
his parole may be punished with death

in that month since such records were

it may appear, the report is eneour-
aging, There was not a single failure
in the month which was calculated to
shake ar did shake commercial credits,
which were stronger at the end of May
than at the beginning.
The large brokerage failure for about
S13, 000, 900 exceeded in amount all fail
ures in any other month except one
since 1898. and with ii came another
for $735.O00 Nearly 60 per cent of the
total defaulted liabilities was due to
five other commercial failures. while
the ten large failures in manufactur-
ing and trading covered less than

BECOMING POPULAR.
Stray Linguistic Gems Coming From
South Africa.
The Rookmanl

There are some stray linguistic
phases to the war which are not with
out interest, and one Of them is to be
observed in the gradual creeping of
Dutch words into popular use People
are getting rather fond Of speaking OF
Commands" and of commander
ing: and the newspapers have evolved
a whole string of jokes over the word
"k0pje Most pleasing to US. how
ever, of all these contributions. is the
word trek" which, to be sure, is not
altogether new to the reading public.
but which has never before been
noDularized. We don't know why it is,
but "trekking" appeals much more to
the imagination than migrating or
marching" or ''meandering." There
is something brisk and Dutch about it.;
and once or twice in the cabied reports
from the seat of war il has been used
with very picturesque effect, as. for in
stance, in the account of an engage
nlent which concluded with the remark
that from the top Of a hin numerous
bodies OF Beers could be seen trekking
aimlessly over the plain This some
how or other gives you an impression
of a lot Of black ants, and to any one
with a proper word-sense 1t is delight
full. If the war keeps on for another
year the whole American people viii
be "outspanning" around ''spruits,
and the land viii be fun of points
and drifts and ''nullahs All of
which pleases us immensely.

A petition for a pardon for Frank
Mcbride, the former cashier of the
postoffice who was convicted of embez-
Element in the federal court, has been
industriously circulated here, and many
signatures have been secured. Mrs.
Mcbride, who lives at Kaysville with
her father, Mr.. Ball, has had charge of
one of these papers, and she has got
many names of prominent men. Sen
ator George w. Mcbride of Oregon,
who is an uncle of the ex-cashier. has
also secured the names of many 1ntiu-
entail politicians.
Mcbride is now in Wardner, Ida.,
where he is in the employ Of mining
company. He viii not have to appear
here within sixty days from the time
the decision in his case was given in
the court of appeals at st. Paul sus-
tanning the judgment of the federal
court here. His father, Judge Mcbride
Of Spokane, some time ago filed in the
court of appeals a motion to have the
time extended to Aug. IA, and it was
granted. Unless Mcbride is pardoned
by that time he must deliver himself
to the United States marshal here to
receive sentence and serve his time in
the penitentiary, about three years.
Mrs. Mcbride. when here some days
ago, said that there would be no doubt
that her husband would be here on
time. She said that he would not run
away and leave the bondsmen, Messrs.
Fisher and Stoker of Bountiful, to lose
by his disappearance. But she hopes
that he will be paFdoned by that time.
It is not known that any effort is be
ing made by attorneys in the case to
have hearing before the supreme
court Of the United States. Judge Nc
Bride, the father has been attending
to the matter of bate, and it is not be-
lieved that he will endeavor to take it
to the supreme court.
