Portugal has just celebrated the four hundredth anniversary of thediseovery of the Cape route to India by its great navigator, Y'asco da Gama. Since trouble with Spain arose tlie fact has come to public notice that Horatio J. Sprague has been United States consul at Gibraltar for 50 years. Among the novelties to be exhibited tit the Paris exposition in 1900 will be a monster horn, nearly 300 feet in diam eter at the large end, and of proportion ate length. It is not generally known that Ad miral Cervera, the commander of the Spanish fleet at Santiago de Cuba, was formerly a naval attache at Washing ton. He represented the government in that city about 15 years ago. . Since tlie death of Gladstone Senator .Justin Smith Morrill, of Vermont, is the oldest living English-speaking statesman. He was born April 14, ISIO, and his length of service exceeds that of any other American statesman. Among the curious things which re main in the memory of Mrs. Nancy P. Knight, of YVoburn, Mass., who recently celebrated her ninety-third birthday, is the phenomenally cold summer of ISI6. In May there was ha.lf an inch of ice, snow four inches deep occurred in .Tune, and iee formed in July and August. The family of Admiral Sampson lives in Glen Itidge, N. J. The members of it are Mrs. Sampson, two stepdaughters, Olive and Hannah, and two sons, Ralph and Harold. Two daughters are mar ried —Margaret, to Lieut. Boy C. Smith, of the Indiana, and Kate, to Ensign 11. 11. Jackson, commanding the torpedo boat Foo'te. Maria Christina, queen regent of Spain, is very tall, fair, extremely graceful, just 40 years of age, but look ing younger, with the most engaging manners. She knows everything that is going on, reading ail the newspapers, interested not only in Spanish affairs, but in everything of importance pass ing in Europe. A census was taken lately in Algeria, and it was found that the youngest Arab married man was 12 years old, and that there were many boys who were married at 13 and 14, while some at 15 had several wives. There is a youthful Algerian widower of 15, and a divorced husband of the same age. Girls are still mors precocious, and are sometimes married when only 11 years old, though 12 is the more usual age. Frank James, the one-time noted Mis souri bandit, slipped into a St. I.ouis photograph gallery the other day anil faced the camera for the first time in 25 years. In the days of his outlawry a reward of SSOO was offered by detectives for his likeness, but Frank was shy. One day, however, he had a tinttpe taken in a country town. It fell into the hands of officers and caused James some trouble, and until a day or two ago, he never entered a photographer's. It is said that a rolling stone gathers «o moss. As a matter of fact it is the rolling stone that keeps the world on the move. The man who sils down in the spot where he happens to find him self and goes to gathering moss con tributes nothing to the bustle, the ac tivity, the well-directed energy that goes to make the prosperity of a coun try. In vent ions, discoveries, commerce, science, art and literature get no as sistance from the stone that never rolls. It is the rolling stone that discovers, in vents. produces. YYhen the war with Spain began the price of sulphur was s:.'2 a ton, but as the result of Spain's action in declaring this article contraband of war the price has risen to $35 a ton, and predictions are freely made that it w ill be SIOO be fore many more months have passed. Here i,s an opportunity to develop an other of the wonderful resources of the United Statesi. There are sulphur mines in this country; yet we have always de pended upon Sicily for practically our entire supply. The American product should now be given a great chance. "There's millions in it." Six members of the class of '<J7 of the naval academy have met with misfor tunes since this war began, and the names of five of them begin with B. It was known as "the B class," because the names of .so many began with that let ter. Bagley was killed in Cuba; Boyd was hurt on the Gushing and had to come home; Breckinridge was swept overboard from the Gushing and drowned; Bostwick had his chest caved in on the Ericsson, and went to a hos pital; Baldwin was knocked down a hatchway and had his ribs broken, and Merritt went down with the Maine. BRYAN'S BIG BLUFF. The CIM-ap Money Mutri In llonnd to Iverii III. I * Mnme llefore the I'lll>lie. William J. Bryan has been authorized by the governor of Nebraska to raise a regiment of volunteers. Air. Bryan will begin recruiting at once and says that he thinks he will have no difficulty in getting 1,600 healthy, able-bodied young men to serve under him, not as borne guards, but where Spanish bullets are flying. Mr. Bryan was commis sioned at his own request. He states that while he has had no military train ing he feels that it is his duty todo some thing for his country. lie announces that "1 desire to see service, and shall lead the regiment if the rules will per mit one without military service todo so. 1 will claim the right, under the cir cumstances, and of course expect some consideration will be shown me." The personal friends of the new as pirant for military honors unite in re pudiating the report that the deal is merely for political effect. As a rule it. is impossible to state positively what the motives are which actuate a man to pursue a given course. It. may be that Mr. Bryan is governed by a patriotic desire to do his country some service in the field. lie may think that he will he the best recruiting officer there is in Nebraska. On the other hand, it is more than likely that he is going into the war mainly for the purpose of keep ing himself before a public which might forget all about him if he did not do so. Bryan's lectures are a failure. Free silver is not a drawing card at this time. The people will not turn out to hear a man who has nothing but that or the ineome tax or "government by injunc tion" to talk about. If Mr. Bryan wishes to keep on advertising himself, as he certainly does, he sees that he can do so only by identifying himself with the war. That will enable him tore tain his hold on the attention of the public until war is over and he can re turn to business at the old free silver stand. If Mr. Bryan raises a regiment and it is mustered into the service and is sent where there is fighting to be done he may turn out, after a little experience, to be an efficient officer and do some good work. But he can do his country more service—if he chooses —by re maining in civil life and insisting on his followers in congress standing patriot ically by the government than he can by putting on shoulder straps. Sen ator Jones, of Arkansas, and other Bryanites are endeavoring to debase the currency and destroy the credit, of the country. Bryan should demand publicly that they behave themselves. He has not done so. When the rebellion broke out Stephen A. Douglas, who had been President Lincoln's political opponent for years— who had won political victories over him and had met with the greatest of political defeats at his hands —forgot all the differences which had divided them and called on all the democrats who had followed him to give the presi dent their cordial and unfaltering sup port in the field and in congress. He set an example which Mr. Bryan would have done well to imitate, but he has not done so. While he is raising men in Nebraska to fight, the battles of the United States his lieutenants in the senate are deny ing the government the money which is needed to carry on the war and are scheming to get rid of the gold standard and substitute that elieap silver stand ard of which Bryan is so prominent and energetic an advocate. —Chicago Trib une. SENATE OBSTRUCTORS. free Sliver MHIIIHTK Would Force the Government Into nn Awk ward I'osltlon. The war revenue measure still hangs and United States senators continue to spin out the thread of their verbosity liner than the staple of their argument. The bald, disjointed chat goes on about free silver and greenbacks, as if those issues were not as dead as mackerels. And notonly these, but every other con ceivable heresy in taxation is proposed in order to hamper the government in the way of raising money to carry on the war. Instead of proceeding in the most direct and simple manner to ob tain the means which every sane person knows must be had in order to prose cute the war with success, the silver ob structionists in the senate offer every rotten scheme that was proposed in the popoerat platform of last year and which was voted down by the people by a majority that ought not so easily to be forgotten. They seem to think that because there is some stress and that tlie government can be forced itito a difficult position that now >a the time for them to take what advantage may offer and compel the country to accept their discredited theories of finance. They would lix upon the people an in come tax. an inheritance tax and a tax on corporations, and, as Senator Spoon er very cogently said, force the govern ment into buying lawsuits instead of providing it with means to carry on the war. Such is the patriotism of the Bryan ites and silverites in the senate of the United States! As a party trick they forced the coon try into a war and brag about it. And now as a further party trick they un dertake to withhold the means from the government in its effective prosecu tion of the war. ('an anything be more despicable or more deserving of the everlast ing con tempt of the American people?— Chic ago Times-Herald. Clt is now Col.

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JUNE 9, 1898. DEMOCRATIC OPPOSITION. The llollovi IICNM nttcl Hypocritical Nalurc of l lie I'reten»eN «iff Cheap .Money Stu teamen. The general curiosity in regard to the alleged democratic reasons for op posing tlm revenue hill as framed by the republican committeemen has hard ly been satisfied by the speech of Sen ator .(ones, of Arkansas, who repre sented the democratic-silver combina tion. Or, rather, the speech showed that there was absolutely 110 strength or merit in the opposition to the bill. In the first place, Senator .Tones had peculiar estimates of his own with ref erence to the cost of the war. estimates which the republican spokesmen had no dilllculty in puncturing. He further maintained that it was wholly unnec essary that all the expenses of the war should be provided for in the pending bill. Congress, he said, would return in December, and if any emergency re quired Its presence sooner the presi dent could attend to that by proclama tion. Tie evidently found it convenient to ignore the fact that the provision for the issues of short-term certificates and long-term bonds do not direct an imme diate isMie of either, but merely author ize the treasury to issue them as the need arises. Does he imagine that they would be issued anyhow, regardless of the course of the struggle? The senator says he and his party pre fer increased taxation to bonds. The only principle conceivably behind this preference is that the present genera tion should pay the expensesof thecon fiict; but if that be the democratic mo tive, the opposition is palpably insin cere. At best the objection would ap ply only to bonds and not at all to short term certificates to be redeemed out of the revenue yielded by current taxation. Yet the democrats are as vehement in fighting the certificate proposal a's in re sisting bond issues! This alone proves the hollownes*and hypocritical naturo of their pretended statesmanship. It is passing strange that in the re ports of the senator's speech we find no reference to the greenback and the seigniorage amendments, the pet polit ical proposals of the silver combina tion. If this silence signifies that the democrats themselves realize the folly and impossibility of these sham amend ments and do not intend to waste time on them, they are to be congratulated on their discretion. At any rate, it is clear that the bill asi reported by Sen ator Allison, minus the democratic amendments which he disavowed, will encounter no very serious or formidable difficulties. Even Jones was painfully aware of the weakness of his case. —Chi- cago Post. PRAISE OUR PRESIDENT. Honored li.v I'iitriotlc American* niui Admired l»y UlNceriiiiiur Forviffiiem. President MeKinley, by tlie masterly manner in which he has handled the Spanish war problems, has thoroughly engrafted himself in the confidence of all the people, and even those who were most bitter in their denunciation of his course of action six weeks ago are now enthusiastic in his support, lie has not only won every patriotic American over to his methods, but his wise course of action has commanded the respect of the nations abroad, and he is receiving praise from all over the world. The Lon don Spectator, a paper which is not given to indiscriminate and superflu ous praise, speaks of President MeKin ley as follows: "At present It looks very much as if Pres ident McKlnley were going to turn out one of the public men who are remade and il luminated by the force of the mighty issues with whfch they have to deal. All the ac counts from Washington seem to show that the president is facing a very difficult prob lem with Just the quiet dignity and strength which one would desire to see displayed by the head of the state. "If the accounts we have quoted are well founded it would seem that the president has been able to face the situation in the true spirit. If he can, America should be grateful, for.in spite of her vast powei and Spain's weakness, America may yet find the need of the cool head and the steady hand. There seems a tendency among the people of the United States to call for quick successes. If this temper continues and increases it may require all the president's firmness, tact and temper to pursue his own course. The attempt to gain quick successes is sure to lead to a fiasco, but it may require a man of perfect calm and self-possession not to be carried away by the excitement and the demand for Instant action. Our own belief is that Mr. McKlnley will prove equal to the crisis." —lowa State Register. POLITICAL DRIFT. <CTWi 11iam .1. P.ryon's engagement in the role of"The Colonel" is already a great success.

Aii Oflle al Fo recant of the Plan of C am* paign Shown tliut the Intention Into Send Our SOUIIITH to l'orto Kieo a* Well rh to t'ulm and the I'liillpplnen. Washington, .June 2.—For the first time since the beginning of hostilities there appears to be something in the nature of an official statement of the plan of campaign. This is contained in a letter sent yesterday by Secretary Alger to the speaker of the house, transmitting certain statements of Gen. Ludlow, which disclose the pur pose of the war department to send 70,000 men to Cuba, 20,000 to start at once and the remainder just as soon as they can be made ready for departure. Then there was an estimate for estab lishing electrical communication in connection with the army "in Cuba, l'orto Rico and the Philippines," show ing for the first time officially an im plied intention on the part of the gov ernment to land troops in l'orto Itico. All these movements have been an ticipated bv the press, but neverthe less a strong element of doubt existed and therefore an official statement of the government's purposes, made even in this indirect fashion, created a pro found sensation here. The three are togo together—Cuba, l'orto Rico and the Philippines—and be occupied by United States troops. Inasmuch the secretary says the second contingent of troops is togo forward as soon as they can be prepared, a good deal of interest attached to an order made yesterday at the war department pro viding for the organization of the 75,- 000 additional volunteers called for. The order officially established the statement heretofore made that a large proportion of the new men arc to be used to fill up existing regiments of volunteers, which are in most cases de ficient in numbers. It is presumed from this that the volunteer regiments col lected under the first call will be de tained until they are filled up in this fashion, so that the order has some bearing upon the plan of campaign. The war department has received a dispatch from Gen. ISrooke, in com mand of the forces in Chickamanga, setting at rest the reports as to inade quate food and water supply there. ' An additional evidence that tlie ac tual forward movement of the army and navy has begun is given in the ac tion of the foreign naval and military observers. They have been sojourning leisurely in Washington for some time, but within the last week all of them have started for Florida. The British naval and military attaches were the first to leave, and now they have been followed by the German, Austrian, Russian, Swedish. Norwegian and Jap anese observers. The government of Norway and Sweden has no less than six military and naval experts to ob serve various brances of the warfare. TAUGHT HIM A LESSON. Admiral Dewey Is Said to Have Made l'rlnee llenry of I'ruKHla Apologize for a Slight to America. Chicago, June 2.—Charles N. Post, vice president of the Lyon .t Healy Co., who has just returned from a tour of the Orient, met Admiral Dewey in Hong Kong March 25. Air. Post tells of a social passage at arms between Dewey and Prince Henry, brother of Emperor William, commanding the German squadron at Hong 1 Kong. Prince Henry after his arrival at Hong Koqg gave a banquet to the higher offi cers of the other fleets, among whom was Rear Admiral Dewey. At the feast the prince proposed a toast to his own country, then to Oreat Britain, then to all the other great powers except the United States. Just before the dinner was over, the royal host pro posed a toast to this country. When Rear Admiral Dewey saw that appar ently his country was to be slighted he left the banquet. The next day a representative of Prince Henry sent a roundabout apol ogy to the American commander. Dewey sent word back to the prince that he would accept nothing but a written or personal apology. Prince Henry then called upon Dewfey and apologized, saying that in the confu sion of the dinner he, the prince, neg lected to put the American toast on the programme. While Mr. Post was at Hong- Kong-, I'rince Henry gave a ball, but Admiral Dewey, although in vited, did not attend it. A MARINE DISASTER. The Schooner I.ailj Jane lirey Founders and 35 rtummigerii Lone Their Uvea. Seattle, Wash., June 2.—The schoon er Lady Jane Grey foundered 'JO miles west of Cape Flattery on May 22. Only 27 out of 02 passengers were • ved. The survivors were brought here by the steamer Kingston. The Jane Grey sailed from Seattle for Kotzebue Sound May IS with <l2 people on board. Among the passengers was a party of 16 Italians who were outfitted by Prince Luigi, of Italy. The surviving passengers suffered a great deal of privation ami for HO hours their only food was a sack of prunes and a sack of turnips from the ship's stores. Sufficient water was caught by spreading a tarpaulin during a rain storm. The news of the disaster and expected arrival of the rescued from Victoria caused a great crowd to gath er at the dock in this city. Carriages were waiting and when the City of Kingston landed the survivors they were all carried to their rooms or to the residences of friends. The few that were seen could not give a very de tailed account of the disaster which came so suddenly. They were unable to account for the vessel springing a leak and sinking. Horrible Hxperienee of Hold Seekers, Apia, Samoa, via San Francisco, June 2.—The schooner Sophia Sutherland has arrived here from the Solomon islands with the passengers and crew in a hor rible condition. The Sutherland left San Francisco in 1897 with 11 pros pectors and a crew of four to search for gold in the Solomon islands. At Florida island fever broke out and the schooner sailed for Apia for medical aid. Four men were left at Florida island to prospect. All the rest except two were too ill to move, and when the schooner reached Apia the captain was the only one able to work. Scurvy broke out and four men died at sea. SMASHED THEM.

New York, June 2. —A special from Cape Haitien says: The torpedo boat Porter arrived at Mole St. Nicholas Wednesday morning with dispatches for Washington. She left immediately, but before going to sea the following story of the bombardment of Santiago de Cuba was obtained: The American squadron, augmented by the torpedo boat Porter, the auxil iary cruiser St. Paul and the protected cruiser New Orleans, approached the entrance to the harbor of Santiago at 12:80 p. m., Tuesday, the lowa leading. Inside the entrance to the harbor was seen one of the warships of Cervera's fleet, stripped for action. As the American fleet drew near the New Orleans steamed forward ahead of the lowa. Texas and Massachusetts. One of the forts opened fire on her and bhe replied, the other two ships direct ing their fire at the battery on I'unta Gorda, within the harbor and west ward of the position occupied by the Spanish ship. The latter replied to the lire and immediately became a target for all the American ships engaged in the battle. She retired behind a pro tecting headland and was not seen again during the engagement. The lowa, directed by Capt. "Fight ing 15ob'' Evans; the Massachusetts, Capt. Higginson; Texas, ('apt. Philip, and the New Orleans, Capt. Folger, kept up a terrific fire against Morro, Zacopa and Punta (iorda forts for two hours, their projectiles, of enormous size, doing tremendous damage to the defenses of the harbor. The masonry on Zacopa and Morro was battered al most into dust, and the forms of Span ish artillerymen could be plainly seen flying to safety behind the neighbor ing hills. The auxiliary cruiser which joined Schley's fleet just before the battle took place was hit by shells from the forts and it is thought she was serious ly damaged. After seeking the protection of a jut ting headland the Spanish warships continued to fire projectiles over the hills toward the fleet, but the shells fell harmlessly into the sea. That the number of killed and wounded on the Spanish side is enor mous no one doubts, for time and again the American shells hit the batteries squarely, and amid the flying masonry and dismantled guns the forms of men were descried. The damage done to the American licet cannot be learned, but it is not thought any person was killed—if. indeed.an v one was wounded. Cape Haitien. June 2.—A dispatch from Santiago says: The American squadron which bombarded Santiago was composed of 14 vessels, among which were recognized the lowa, Brooklyn, Mssachusetts, Texas and New Orleans, besides a gunboat and auxiliary cruiser believed to be the Columbia. The live vessels which were recognized opened fire on the batteries at Punta Gorda, El Morro and Zacopa and also on the cruiser Cristobal Colon, which had advanced toward the entrance of the harbor and was visible from the sea. The Ameri cans fired huge projectiles and the batteries as well as the Cristobal Co lon kept up a responsive fire. Wednesday morning the American squadron reappeared off Santiago, but contented itself with firing' two shots, which are believed to have been sig nals agreed upon with the insurgents, who, numbering 2,000 or 3,000, are said to have concentrated near Santiago. Key West, June 3.—Advices from Santiago show that after the American ships ceased firing on Tuesday the Spanish batteries roared long- afterthe American vessels were entirely out of range. All the Spanish shells fell from two to three miles from the vessels at which they were aimed. Worse gun nery was never seen. During the en tire fight not an American vessel was struck and not a sailor injured, al though 300 shots were fired by the Spaniards. IN A BLAZE OF SPLENDOR.
