Republic to Stay.

Lisbon, August 13.-The latest in
vasion and attempted revolution in
Portugal-the fourth since King
Manuel a deposed, and the most
costly and best organized-has failed
because it's leaders didn't understand
their own c~ountrymen.
The Royalists, knowing, as ev-
erybody does, that the ~peasantry
in the north are not Republicans,
came to the conclusion that they
must be stanch Royalists. In addi-
ton, Capt. Paiva Conciero believed
that he had only to be seen and the
army would follow him. In both
cases they were mistaken.
The peasants in the north are
quite ignorant, and scarcely under
stand the difference between the
Monarchy and Republic. If the To-
cal squires had asked them to fight
for the Monarchy they might have
done SO, but the local squires, with
a few exceptions, are far too eau
tous.
After several months of careful
preparation, the Royalists believed
that they had the best possible
chances OF success. On the same day
almost at the same hour, several viii
lagos In the north rose against the
Republican authorities, and hoisted,
or tried to hoist, the monarchial flag
and from several places across the
Spanish frontier there came groups
Of Royalists armed with rifles, ma
chine guns, and artillery.
simultaneously at FATE, Cabereira
di Busto, Calorico di Busto, and Vim
has Azoia the %peasantry revolted,
while the Royalists entered the coun-
try by way Of Valance, Montalegre
and elsewhere. The result was pitt
full. The rising of the %peasantry was
quickly suppressed everywhere. The
Royalist invaders were defeated at
Valenca and at Chaves after a few
hours fighting, and again fled to
Spain, leaving behind their guns and
ammunition.
The wonderful prestige of Capt.
Conc1ero proved a delusion. The Re-
publican troops were neither to be
cajoled nor frightened. The jumped
into the fray as II 1t was a real plea
sure. The past months history
seems to demonstrate that the mon
archy cannot be re-established.
