"OLD POLK" ALL RIQHT.
iKDKl'EXDENCn, NOV. 15tl. 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.

The Sultan Alarmed.
Constantinople, Nov. IS. 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

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.

tive if the convention shall not be held

Spaniards Enter a Trap.
Boston, Nov. 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,

lost nearly that amount by the destruct
ive cannonadii.g and the fierce attacks of
the cavalry.
