Sr. l.oiis, July IS Chairman Taub- enect, of the committee, who lias had nothing to say or publication since the Chicago convention, haa at last biokcn liia silence and submitted to an inter view with a representative of the Aeao ciatcd Press. "Are you in favor ot the opulista in dorsing the democratic ticket nominated at Chicago?" he was asked. "So; under no consideration will I i vote to nominate Hryan and .So wall at I the populist convention on July Ci',' he replied. "That would mean the btir render and destruction of the peoples party organization." "Have you any idea what tho popu lists will do toward combining nil the ele ments opposed to the gold standard in ' the coming campaign?" 1 1wltav Hio rvrtnlpia tMflr nlivi.nltiin ' will favor the idea of nominating a can didate for president and viee-prefeident, and then combine the votes of the two parties on one set of electors. This can ciples or onr organization, and will also .1. . . i . . .i- . t i i uime iue elements opposeu to uie go:u i standard." "Ho you believe that if the peoples party national convention should indorse ! Mr. 1'ryan the entire vote of that partv would go to I'm an at the Kills next No vember." "No; if the peoples' party national convention should indorse l'ryan and Sewall, the leaders could not deliver more than lV per cent of the populist vote throughout the country. Members of the peoples' party possess a strong in dividuality and will not follow their lead ers if they attempt to lead them against their will. The stay-at-home vote in the peoples' party would'be large enough to defeat Bryan in many of the Western ' ataten." "Do you think if the peoples' should nominate a candidal for pa'ty preSl-J ucui iuu ukc jJiisiucuk auu tutru com- bine on electors, that the entire vote could be polled for sucb electors?" "Yes: I believe that the full populia t strength could-be polled at tho Novem ber election for the electors. This, in my opinion, is the only possible way to defeat McKinley at the polls next No vember. Since the Chicago convention. . - Lav. commnu.cated with populists I throughout the Unital State, and 1 know the democratic ticket nominated at Chicago w ill not be indorsed by our con vention." A Crushing Defeat. Kk- West, July 1 The Spaniards nnder General" MJirez Ynclan have sus tained a crushing defeat at the hands of the insurgents nnder Antonio Maceo. Not only was Ynclan's column defeated with heavy less, bnt it is currently re ported in Havana that the Spanish general himself was captured and t held a prisoner by Maceo. The battle is said to have occurcd on 1?',a.!ar iLaceo.a &". ; PinardelKio. For the last to weeks tje great state of ew ork, has, in al the rebels have been very aggressive, lowing his name to come beforo the and small parties have repeatedly at-; country, aja candidate for the presi- tacked the trocha, causing the Spaniards much annovance. Ycclan was ordered to drive back these detached bsnds oi Cubans, and for this purpose took with hitu 2003 men. Maceo seems to have expected snch a 1 I movement, anil arranrnl tn nmlwiih ihn bnt wai surrounded bv the Cubans and compelled to surrender. It is said in Havana that the pan- iards were pursued almost to the trocha, i and lost more than 000 killed aud the Spaniards. One of those officers is j Capo'.c. If this rebel leader ii shot by the .-paniards, it is thought Yn.-lan will meet Ihc same fate at the hands of Ma - ceo. " ; liat .Maceo ants. j . NtH Youk, July :k The World pub-j lithe? the following correspondence from j ithe headquarters of Maceo, Toinas del ' '''an "'ose 1'hiar del Bio, June 2 : i ue want oi a lew caitrnjges ana a few cannons," said General Antonia Maceo, "is all that makes our govern ment use nature's rocks instead of brick and mortar for a White House." Aeked how many and what arms and ammunition he needs to guarautee to win the war in, say two months, he (10;said. "I could do it with 20,000 Remington rifles, email caliber, I-jOOOO cartridges, 10 cannons and 100,000 rounds of .'artillery ammunition. I might do it with much less. I would invariably attack the Spaniards and attack them after ma neuvering th'eir columns into cul de sacs and I would take 'an important town. The supplies captured there would assist in the capture of the next one, and so on until I would be able to storm Havana with its fully equipped army of I 100,000 men and 50 pieces of artillery. "In addition to our 00,000 men armed, welhave fully 20,000 more men armed with onlv machetes and ruvolvnrH. Hum He estimates the Cubans have seven cartridges to tach soldier.

The latter being one of the greatest attractions, to those that are fortunate enough to bo able to go to tho seaside. We wish them a pleasant and profitable outing. I The county court made quite an ap j propriation during its session last week I for the Hohcinia wagon road. This wo 1 think is a step in tho right direction, as the road, when completed, will be the means of bringing returns more direct into Douglas couuty, There is at pres- '. etit a large number of men at work on j the road, and more will go out this week, : and the work will be pushed along as fast as passible and we are in hopes to be able to report its completion in the near future. Tbilb. THE AFTERA1ATH. The nomination of William McKinley j anj jjsmgnt pronouncement for pro- , fl,, lila r..r,lltiin innriin. tion at St. Louis, grand as it was, was by no means the only 'good achieved by that assemblage: and it is of the man ner rather than of the matter, of which at this time I desire to speak. While we would not retract one ijta of imjKjrt nnce from the nomination of such men as McKinley and Hobart ; yet some of i the points made, u In ! ac,, Licit culminated then forward will be of far reaching importance, not only to the republican party, as a party of progress and reform, but to the whole country; growing into supreme factors in "that consummation devoutly to be wished," purity in politics. Men die, but prin ciples are eternal. I refer cbietly to the might given to the expressed wishes of the masa of the common ieoplc, the bone and smew of the country, the pro ducers and laborers, and the dethrone ment of "boss rule." The yoice of the peoj le ""generally is right, but if a niis- now take is mad;, they are ready and anx ! ious to "correct it. For example . it lias coe t0 a pretty pass, when such an ; honored man as Governor Morton of dency, to stoop so Ion as to place his political interests, in the hands of such an arrogant trade politician as I'latt, who, sseing his opjortunity. demands patronage and spoils for self-aggrandiie meat. Look at I'.-s Buckler of .an Francisco, a blind, illiterate, infamous, pothouse politician, who in a few years from insiuntticauce and joverty'rose in power to command the iolitk-s and pa tronage of that great city, and to wealth. Aud the boss rule of Tammany, tho most iniquitous political organustiou cn the face of the earth, attempting by the vilest mean, to set at naught then ill of the intelligent and industrious people of the sreat state i New York. But it was turned down. The inigbty tide of the will of the people, this jear. was too pronounced, loo voluminous, too i snift, for the bosses or a combination of j them, with their trick of "auy one to beat McKinley," and the reb'iko is ! stinging and severe, but deserved. And I proper rested for the wishes of the peo- i pie it will add to the prestige and sue- cess of tho party in the future. And ; here let me ask, may not tho manner of i conducting primaries, with the view of . the selection of such candidates for g? n- tfraj ofliccs, as the pvaple may desire by any expression of their prefeiencc, lie worthy of consideration '.' But to return to our subject. Theuua- nimity with uhich the present uomiuce of the republican party was selected, is without parallel in our 'modern ilitics. And the assertion that a man may be too great and too prominent to reach the presidency, will, with the election of William McKinley, prove to be a back number. Another worthy and notable feature of the convention's work is found in the plain, straightforward man ner in which tho grand principles of tho paify are stated. No ambiguous terms, capable of misinterpretation or distor tion. No straddle, compromise or bar gain ,t honest facts, stated in plain, str-. . language. And the masterly maj..ir in which Senator Thurston of Nebraska, the speaker of the notification committee, nhe man that beat tho now leader of silver democrats delivered his message, and the nominee's judicious and wholesome reply, are all on (he same line; and the great army of read ers will read as they run, and their run ning will not stop until they have de posited their ballots for .McKinley and Hobart, protection and sound monoy, the pledge, of the republic's honor and perpetuity.

The Judge and Commissioner Wilson, a majority of the court, decided to appropriate money I to aid m the construction of said road as it shail be completed, and the Judge was authorized to draw warrauts for $000, when the read is completed to the 14-mile post of the survey.
