LBt Thursday, November tlio 7th, 1 took tho local for Independent-!) and arrival here nt 3 j. m. the sanio day. Many of my old friends were at the depot and it was a Kourco oi much gratification to me to mcot them and once more Bliatt bands with them in friendly recognition From whero we are now writing wo can view more fields of green wheat than wo tmw all tho way from "Roseburg to Albany. The dry weather has rendered it unfavorable to sowing saain, but wo have now had two days of rain which makes the farmers jubilant, and they aro now pushing ahead with great industry. This country, in contrast with Douglas, is a great wheat-growing country, and the hop industry in this section is an important one at tho present, and prom ises to be u very exteesiyo one in the future. Last Wednesday evening I attended the republican convention fur tho nomi nation of city officers. All went off har moniously, a good ticket was nominated and presented to the people for their suffrages, which in all probability will bo elected. Tho republican party of this county old Polk won a glorious and triumphant victory at the last June elec tion, nud the party is now united and harmonious, and will go into next year's campaign with full assurances of an other victory, aa the democracy here as well as elsewhere are discontinued, and seem already disposed to yield the con test for supremacy to the fully organized and spirited republican ptrty. We have yisited different localities in the couuty, have conversed with republicans with a view to ascertain their views with refer ence to the nomination, and re-election of iiingcr Hermann to the position he has so long and o failfully filled in the (lost, and I hare come to the conclusion that the republican s of Polk aro almost unanimously favorable to Hermann's re electiou, and that nothing short of some event transpiring to disrupt the party can prevent his nomination and election. Where ever I go, and the question of congressman is a subject of discussion, tho name of Hermann coxes promi nently to the front and gives suie indi cations that he b the choice of the people. Wo were informed that fSOOO was paid to hop pickers hero in one day for their work in hop picking time.

The sultan said to be alarmed to the verge of in anity at the assembling of foreign fleets in Salonica hay, and it is known that he has sent urgent messages to tho valii of stnrbed districts, ordering them to sup press ttie disorders, in audition, spe cial commissioners have been hurriedly dispatched from this city to various parts of Asia Minor armed with power to quell revolutionary outbreaks. No fnrther details have be n received here of the massacre of about S00 Arme nians at Kharpnt or the sacking and burning of eight of the twelve buildings belonging to the Armenian missionaries there. AmSjassador Terrill has tele graphed, asking whether the American mission buildings were set on Ike by the wrilten to Attorney William Odell, a per rioters or were destroyed as the result of fripnd of Manlev. and a law Dart- general conflagration. Tho American and other missionaries at Bitlis have been compelled to return to Van under the escort of Turkish troops, provided upon tho strength of the representations Terrill to the porte. Terrill, although granted leave of absence, refuses to leave his post, being determined to remain here until all Americans are safo and tho authority of the sultan is once more es tablished throughout Asia Minor. At the request of the United States consulate, tho valii of Aleppo has detailed certain Turkish officials of a high rank to pro tect tho Americans in that place, and has held them responsible for the lives of thoso placed under their charge. Further massacres are reported from Sivos, and thero is a repcrt that 4000 Ar menians have been massacred at Guerah Althongh the reports of the latter ruassa cro are not confirmed. Turkish officials admit that the Kurds mado two separate attacks upon the Armenians of that lo cality and thero wbh considerable loss of life, due, according to the Turks, to the rioting of the Armenians, which could not otherwise be suppressed Tho porte, it ia said, has ordered a sie cial Inquiry into the massacre of Chris tiaiiB at- Alexandrotta, Northern Syriu, where 300 Turkish troops urosaid to havo looked on while the killing took place, and abstained from rendering any assist anco in suppressing tho disorder. Tho police have torn down revolution ary placards referring to tho British pro mier's ntterunces at tho Mission-house banquet, in London, November 0. Mak ing arrests continues and it is reported number of members of the young Turks' n.,lH Ixil'n linim Bn.,.ll.. n.ntllail V'U. . t ,I,U UI.DU DCblUUl Sir Philip Currio, the British arabassa . dor, cannot reach Constantinople before Wednesday. Tho British tleot.it is re ported hero, is being still further rein forced. Another conference of representatives of the powers took place yesterday at the official residence of tho Austrian ambassador. Important news is looked fur from Zei toun, where a desperate battle between tho entrenched Armenians and Turkish troops sent to disporse thorn is expected. The work of calling out tho army re serves continues slowly, the main diffi culty being to find proper equipment, ammunition and supplies for the same. About 140 battalions of reserves have been called out. Heard From Her Husband. Sas Antonio, Tex., Nov. 18. Auvices received hero today from Palo Blanco, Beucres county, Tex., state that Mrs. Catarino Garza, the wife of the Mexican levolutionary leader who created such a disturbance on the lower Kio Grande border a few years ago, and who was re ported to have been killed in Colombia. South America, while engaged in a polit ical insurrection, has just received a let ter from her husband. According to the information in this letter Garza is very much alivo and is taking a leading part in the Cuban revolution, whero he has command of a company of insurgents and is known by the namo of '! Mexi cano." Mrs. Garza lives on the ranch of her father near Pulo Blanco. She has claimed all along that her husband was not killed in Columbia, and that she would hear from him soon. The full contents of the letter are not known, but it is said Garza has been promised an important office if the Cubans succeed. She Will Not Arbitrate. New York, Nov. 18. The Brazilian government, the Herald's correspondent at Rio Jnnerio telegraphs, has definitely concluded that no arbitration is admis sible respecting the ownerchip of the island of Trinadade, as proposed by the British government. The government also refuses to consider such suggestions as may arise through the discussion in the British parliament of the question. Serious Engagement. Havana, Nov. IS. A dispatch received today from Santa Clara .ays a serious engagement has been fought atTaguasco, near Santa JEspiritos, Santa Clara, be tween !four columns of Spanish troops and a etrons force of insurgents, com manded by Maximo Gomez. Death of Corea's Queen Milwaukee, Nov. 17. Rudolph Nun- nemacher, now visititing in Corea, writes 10 the Milwaukee Sentinel, giving an ao count of the murder of thequeen in Octo Mf- Ho rays the Japanese were the in stigators oftbe outrage, and that albody troops, n hen they bad gained to the queen's apartments, they found four women, and, being unable to recog nize the queen, who had disguised her self, they killed all four. The bodies, I after having been fslashed and stabbed, rwero tied in blankets, carried to the courtyard, saturated with oil, and burned. It is reported the queen was cremated alive, not haying been dis- patched during the slaughter. The Jap- 1 anese government lias siarteu an inquiry and many arrests have been made. An American general, who has been acting as vice-minister oi war for Corea, is said to have been an eye-witness of the outrage. He was in command of the guard, and made heroic resistance to the assassins. He catne near being killed, sevir.tl bullets passing close to him. Mail he lost ins lite, the writer says, the Japanese government might have found itself in serious complications with the United States. The Next Convention Chicago, Nov. 17. The Chronicle, democratic, says Joseph H. Manley, ex- .- , chairman of the republican committee, and manager of the Reed presidential boom, has written to Chicago to engage 30 rooms for the Reed head quarters at the rebublican national con- vention. The letter, it is claimed, was ner of George S. Wiliette, late United States senatorial candidate. The letter was written, it is said, from New Or leans a week ago. Tho Chronicle siys it was written with the belief, if not the ex plicit understanding upon the part of Munloy, that Chicago w to get the con vention. Attorney Odell does not con firm the story. It is said he is to meet Manley in Philadelphia tomorrow. This Looks Like Pittsburg. PiTTSBuna, Noy. 17.

A special dispatch to a morning paper from Santiago de Cuba, dated the 4th inst., says: A report has reached this city that a big battle was fought on Octobei 27, in the country west of Puerto Principe, be tween a large division of the insutgents' army and the interior and the first di vision of the Spauish army in the field. The insurgents were led by General Go mez and the noted guerilla chief, Rolof. They had token possession of all the large cane plantations in the region and had erected earthworks and mines over the whole country so as to render it al I most impassable. The Spanish were ied by Generals Vis- larco and Gracenilles of General Campos' staff. The division was composed of 3000 men, three field batteries und four troops of cavahy. Since the close of the rainy season the Spanish cavalry has been the cause of great annoyance to the insur gents and has in a great measure put a stop to desultory raiding and plundering. The regulars advanced cautiously and succeeded in driving back the outer works of the insurgents near Dos Gracios Maria and capturing a field battery. On penetrating further into the mountains and tne treacherous cane brakes they found that they had fallen into a trap. They were attacked by foes on every hand without being able to strike back. General Vislarco at once ordered a retreat. The field bat teries ploughed the surrounding forests and plantations with a coustant stream of grape and kept the insurgents., at a safe distance, andtheretreat.was effected in good order, although a large number fell. The in&urgents made another attack on the main body near the plantation of Se'ella Blanca. The Spanish cavalry, however, proved too much for them, and caused them to seek the shelter of the forests The Spanish loss was nearly 300 men, while it is thought that the insurgents lost nearly that amount by the destruct ive cannonadii.g and the fierce attacks of the cavalry. Another dispatch from H-ivana says that the re enforcements from Spain ba e been sighted by incoming vessels, and that tney will be lauded before the week is oyer. General Campos states that with these men garrisoned so as to protect the capital he will throw his whole acclimated army into the field and right the insurgents to a speedy end. NEWS 1TEAIS.
