Washinuton, April 20. The President has signed th Resolution aud the Ultima tum, and the letter hat been sent to Spain. Spain must comply with tbe demands ol the United Statea in 72 hours, or by mid night Saturday. Troop all over the coun try are moving rapidly towards Cuba. UowCuba Could Be Taken. Niw York, April Hi. A Times dispatch from Washington say: It 1 expected the lorces used in Cuba will consist of cavalry, lnlantry aud light artil lery. Heavy artillery could hardly be used iu the wet season, and, besides, it woud not be necessary. Couaul-Qeneral Lee advises the use of ttiese branches of tbe service In Cuba. He thinks tbe army can successfully conduct operation in the island during tbe wet weather if it baa cavalry and light batteries. Rapid-fire guns and plenty of them will be depended upon very largely O do the fighting. ' General Lee, it ia understood, advised the War department that a tew good regiments would be aulUoieut for the first movements iu Cuba. He relies very strongly upon the eltlciancy of the army under General Guinea and General Garcia, which would naturally be our allies in war. He reports that the revolutionists bave an ellective army of 40,000 troops, which they could increase to 100,000 at almost any time if the arms for them were found. Gomes has kept his army in its present number because it was too difficult to maintain a large army in the country after ita repeated devastation, and because 40,000 men were enough to keep up the war and crush Spain slowly. On the other baud, the Spaniards, bave aot more than 65,000 to 65,000 ellective troops. If the revolutionists are armed and a amall but well disciplined and seasoned army from this country is landed in the island, he thinks the Spanish will have no chance for successful resistance. Our Flag Intuited. London, April 18.-The Malaua corre spondent of tbe Daily Mail, telegraphing at noon Saturday, says: . ; . About 10 o'clock last evening (Friday) a large group of yoang people, who bad al ready met in another part of tbe town for th purpose of organizing a demonstration, arrived In front of tbe American consulate, and began to cheer for Spain. They did not at tbla time otter any ery against tb United States. The chief of police en deavored to disperse liitni, but only suc ceeded In driving tbe erowd from tb front of th consulate. Tb demonstration than paraded along tbe Call tie Larses, tb most frequented ttreet Iu Malaga, and, ac catnpanUd by a very large crowd, reassem bled In th Plaza de la Conttltucion. Tbe civil governor and mayor hastened to th i pot to calm tb people, and wer re ceived with wild cheering, but in the mean time another group potted therotelve op- potite the American consulate. Tbey carried a 8panitb banner, and after otter lnic many patriotic cries, began to throw alone at tbe building. All the window wre amaibed, and a part of tbe furniture of thecontulale senoutly damage!. When th crowd waa at th height of ita frenzy, a ladder wst brought and a man, getting bold of tb American escutcheon, threw it to the ground, amid immense cheering. Tbe escutcheon waa then pa raded at a trophy tbrougb tbe street, and waa ultimately carried to the crowded Plaza de la Constitncion, where ita appear anoe created great enthusiasm.

In li74 Philadelphia was the largest town in tbe American colonies. Esti mates of the population, which are all we bave, differ widely, but it waa prob ably not far from 30,000. A single city now has a larger population than all tbe colonies possessed iu 1774, aud there are iu the United States today 104 cities and towns of over 30,000 inhabitants. Figures alone, however, cannot express tbe difference between those days and our own. Kowa town of 30,000 people is reached by railroads and telegraphs. It is in close touch with all the rest of the world. Business brings strangers to it constantly, who come like shadows and so deport, unnoticed, except by those with whom they are immediately concerned. It was not so in 1774, not even in Philadelphia, which waa as nearly as possible the ceutral point of the colonies as well as the most popu lous city. Thanks to the energy and genius of Franklin, Philadelphia was paved, light ed and ordered in a way almost unknown in any other town of that period. It was well bnilt and thriving. Business was active, and the people were thrifty and prosperous and lived well. Yet, de spite all these good qualities, we must make an effort of the imagination to re alize how quietly and slowly life moved then in comparison to the pace of today. There in Philadelphia was the center of the postal system of the continent, and the recently established mail ooach called the. "Flying Machine," not in jest but in praise, performed the jour ney to New York in the hitherto un equaled time of two days. Another mail at longer intervals crept more slowly to the south. Vessels of the ooast wisfl trafflo or from beyond seas came into port at uncertain times and after long and still more uncertain voyages. The daily found of life was so regular and so quiet that any incident or any novelty drew interest and attention in a way whioh would now be impossible. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge in Scrib-' ner'a.

Sound Money Resolution MeKlnley ndored Frank t. Bnabar for Secretary of State. AtToatA, Or., April 14. Harmony marked tb opening of th Republican Stat Con vention at 10 o'clock thl morning. Tho action of the delegatea from outsid of Mult nomah county at their meeting last night. In deciding tbat nomination! for temporary officer be left open until all delegatea who desired to make nominatione had been beard, prevented a repetition of tb boit terout oeiie that characterized th Con gressional Convention. Chamberlain of Marion, In a pointed sech, presented Mr. Tooze aa Marion county' choic for the temporary Chair manship. Ha laid tbat Mr.Toose bad bad experience aa a presiding officer and that, if elected, h would give satisfaction by bia fair and Impartial rulings. Mr, Tooze waa elected by acclamation. C. E. Cochrane of Union wa elected tem porary Secretary, and Darwin Brittow of Lane astistant :ecretary. At 2:15 P. M. the Committee on Credeo- tialt made tbeir report. Delegate from Clackamas county were: George J. Currin, by Dr. C. B. Smith, proxy; J. A. Talbert, Charlea Holmao, Tbomaa Killin, Euoa Cablll, J. G. Porter, U. O Huntley, J. W. Campbell, A. B. Mar- qoam, by L. L. Porter, proxy ; A. W. Cooke, by J. W. Root, proxy, Jobn Denmaon, by J. C. Bradley, proxy; Charles Toole, by H. Strange, proxy; Cbarlea Holmstrom, Sydney Smytbe, D. Dimick. For a while the discussion took a wide range. Fulton ol Clatsop brought it to a bead by moving that each of the Multno mah delegation be given 20 romutee to pre-' tent it; case, a representative member of each aide to do tba talking. Fulton'a mo tion prevailed by an overwhelming vote, and tbe result canted Chairman Tooze to turn to Fulton and aay: "So, you see, tbe Republican party ia willing that you ahould be beard." Chairman Toots added : "There ahould be no factiona in the party, and after tb aettlement of tbe Multnomah case tbarw will be none." ' "Ob, yea, there will be," came from soma on in the lobby behind tbe Multnomah. Mitchellite. . . - You are a Populist, brother," rtorted th Chair, amid great laughter. The Multnomah case waa presented for the regular Republican by Senator Simon, and for tb Mitchell men by W. T. Hume. Hume spoke first for 15 minute. Senator Simon followed for 20 minutes, and Hum took five minutes to reply to Senator Simon. Both spoke from tbe platform. Campbell, ol Clackamas, put a new phase into the situation by moving to amend tbe pending motion, by providing tbat the con testing delegationa be seated and that each side have 30 votes, the same to be cast In a manner to be decided upon by tbe Multno mah delegationa. He said that be made the motion in the interest of harmony and good feeling. Hi idea was that tbe Con vention should refuse to shoulder the Mult nomah delegation, and that it should send both sides back to fight tbe battle out. Phelps of Morrow, seconded Campbell's amendment in a speech, wbicb waa a plea fur the admission of tbe Mitchellitea. He saiil that he, in company with bia Morrow County associates, had come instructed to tue Congressional for Representative Ellis. He said that tbey were bitterly disappointed at the success of Mr. Moody, but that they would return borne and put their shoulders to the wheel in Mr. Moody's behalf. He as. serted that if one faction from Multnomah were seated, the entire Republican ticket would be defeated in June, and the State would fall into tbe hands of the Populists. Cries of "No," came from all parts ol the ball in response to Mr. Pbelp's prediction of possible Populist success at the poll in June. Moore, of Sherman, protested vigorously against the adoption of Campbell's compro mise motion. He said that two years ago the convention gave both aides in the Mult- uomah County representation in the hope tbat tbey would come together, but now hey are wider apart than ever. "Seat one delegation or the otber," aald Moore, "and let tbe unsuccessful ones fail into line." The vote on the Campbell motion re sulted as follows: Ayes, 00; noes, 133. Thereupon tbe Mitchell delegates from Multnomah vacated tbeir seats and quietly left the ball. There waa not tbe least dem onstration of any sort when they left. The roll of counties waa now called for members of the committee on resolutions, and the following delegatea were chosen i Clackamas J. U. Campbell. Clatsop F. J. Taylor. Columbia W. H. Conyera.
