Tho Journal remarked the other day that Yew Park was very enter prising politically and It Is now com pelled to admit thnt It Is caually "hot stun?' for runaways. Sunday a horse took fright nt tho little car near ICeelcy Institute. It ran as far as tho lire plug at Mr. Skinner's residence, where the buggy wus paralyzed and the man, a gentleman from near Aumsvllle, was dragged about GO yards. Fortunately ho was not seri ously hurt. This morning early the team or II. E. MolTatt took fright In tho samo neighborhood and demoral ized tho family carriage, tho occu pants again escaping Injury. About 10 a. in. Geo. Fendrlch's meat cart took a lively whirl behind his de livery steed, and found Itself piled up In a heap. The returns nre not all In as yet, and It would surprise noDody to learn of soveral more beforo night. It must be tho advent of that man McAtce In the Yow Park store that Is giving his section so much life not political, however. A Special Meeting. At the W. C. T. U. hall next Tuesday, tho meeting will bo devoted to tho dapaitment of purity. Mrs. Savage, tho county su perintendent, will preside. Dy spec ial request, Mrs. E. A.

Senator Jones of Aikimsls, chairman of the Demo - cratic national committee, said today, "I hope the Populist convention will endorse llryan and Sewall, and since I arrived I have received a good deal of encouragement to that hops." Jones will be in conference with the Populist leaders all day. U.N'UBUTAIN l'ltOlJAIHUTIES. Cn. T ....... ..!.. .11 flt. .. 1 I - v iti, uuuim, .miy . m ue ijciipi con Mllnuestobe generally prevalent that a bolt Is among the strong probabili ties in the Populist convention, what ever course Is decided upon by a ma jority. Delegates are constantly ar riving and tho larger tho oiowd be comes, the more evident Is tho Inten sity of tho reeling over the one ques tion nt Issue. This question Is, whether to endorse Bryan and Sewall or to nominate n separate ticket. In a general way the contest Is be tween tho North and South. The Northern men as a class, contend that In the endorsement of llryan lies tho only hope of making tho Influence of tlio party felt, or achieving practical results, while the Southern men, re membering their mnny contests with Democrats of their section, maintain that such a course Is utterly suicidal. MinDLE-OF-TIIIMlOAD I'Ol'l'MSTS. St. Louih, July 20. Tho middle-of-the-road Populists express great con fidence In their strength. Up to noon more than 100 delegates to tho con vention Registered at their headquar ters. Most of them w ore pronounced for a straight ticket and a light against the nomination or endorse ment of Bryan. More than n majority of the statos wero represented. Sonic olnlm two-thirds majority. It was stated at the conference today that Taubcneck had given up tho fight, having been scared by the attl tudo of the leaders on the ground. At hendquarters many expressions wero" heard indicating the disapproval of the endorsement of Uryan. There Is not much said about candldttcs, middle-of-the-road men saying they aio perfecting arrangements to control tho convention first. IIASB OF SUPPLIES. CiucAao, July 20. Tlio baso of sup plies for the Ilepubllcau national campaign will bo established In Chicago today. Slncotho meeting of tho exccutlvccommittee In Cleveland, last week, It Is more than ever certain that tho money question Is going to bo tho issue of the campaign, particu larly In tho west, and as soon as ho gets the matter of tho headquarters settled, Mr. Hanna will go to New York. Tlio campaign along the At lantic coast Is not expected to open so early as It Is in the west. CALIFOKNIA DELEGATES? Kansas City, July 20.

Bryan's Qreat Grandmother. ICokomo. I ml., July 20. The public 'will be surprised to learn that the great grandmother of William J. Bryan, the Democratlo nohilnec for president, is alive.

A lady residing on Winter street, had an experience with a tramp the other day, which has soured her on that class or mendicants. Tho rcllow came around and begged for some thing to cat and got it. "Have you any work that I can do?'' ho asked after satisfying his hunger. "Well, you might cut that wood," said tho lady, pointing to a pllo of four-foot stove-wood. "How much do you 'want for the Job?" "Six bits." "Well, go abend, " sho said. Shortly after that sho had occasion to go down town, and when sho left tho house the tramp was Industriously at work. Upon her return ho had lln Ished. Pointing at tho woodpile, ho said, preudly: Whatdoyou think of that? Ever sco an old man like mo who could cut wood as quick as that? Oh, I'm a lightning strlkor." Tho lady acknowledged that ho was a fast worker, and promptly paid him his money. Shortly after his depart ure sho went to tho woodpile for sticks, and was surprised on remov ing a few of them to llnd that only tho top layer had been cut. The body of tho woodpile consisted of un cut four-foot pieces so arranged as to leave largo spaces between them. It was quite apparent then that consld sldorablo of tho wood had disappeared and that the remaining sticks had boon arranged In that way so ns not to show that tho pile had shrunk. Investigation disclosed tho fact that some of tho wood had boon hidden under a sldevalk, while other largo sticks hud been concealed In various places around tho yard, and somo of tho fuel taken In tho woodshed, Yes terday the lady chanced to see a glunt stick on top of the woodshed roof. She expects to happen on other pieces here and there around tho premises for tho next two months, and would not be much surprised to llnd that the tramp hud wedged some of tho fuel In the chimney top.

S I saw ex-Governor Pcnnoyer nt his mayoralty olllce. Tho doors aro all open, lie has no secretary. The ante-rooms were lull of people seeking employment. I do not envy him the Job. There Is a great deal of street work being done nt Portland a blessing to laboring men. Crops in tho Ctiehalls valley are badly dried up and all Western Wash ington suffers for want of rain, The tlrst Salem man 1 met In Port land was a former business man. Ho said: "I am a Republican, but 1 am for Bryan." The Populist delegates from Ore gon went Ina body to attend their national convention nt St. Louis. They all talked In favor of Bryan, but It Is plain they do not exactly relish him In somo respects. At Portland ox-Governor Pcnnoyer, silver Demo crats, silver Republicans and Popu lists nro in favor of one electoral ticket. Tho Prohibitionists arc also divided on tho silver question. They may keep thclrolcctorlal ticket In tho Held. Tho general sentiment at Port land was In favor ot ono set ot silver electors, nnd that firyan would In no manner make pledges. On tho train going cast to lecture on Oregon In Iowa was Kobort II, Miller of Oswego. Ho has been sent out by the Immigration board of Port laud to lecture In the smaller towns 6f Iowa to Induce farmers tocomoto Oregon. Mr. Miller Is opposed to holding out Inducements to mechanics and laboring men, ns ho thinks thcro aro enough now nnd to spare. Ho has a magic lantern nnd will entertain tho Hawkcycsat churches and school houses vltli stories of our big apples and fine crops. I met John S. (lrnybill at Turkey Illvor, Iowa. Ho had been In Shasta county and other parts of Northoru California for threo months. Ho saw much that ho liked better than the timber region of northeastern Iowa. Ho says If ho can sell out to advantago ho may come to tho coast to live. With II. Wood of Mlllvlllo, ho was looking for a gold prospect that Kred Blcrer or Mlllvllle, la., struck 4 1 years ago. Seventeen years ago a man took $10,000 out or n little pockot. Blcror calculated to go back, but never re turned. Ho Is 80 years old and gave Grayblll a diagram of tho mine. But It was taken as above stated. I met an agent of tho Pacific Meat Co. at Portland. Ho was buying cat tlo In AVashlngton at 2 cts. for steers and 1 for cows. They were cutting up 1C0 sheep, a carload of hogs and 40 cattlo a day. They have an Immense cold storage plant and supply meat to the sawmills, ships, railroads and hotels. Between Pasco and Spokane the Columbia makes a big bend and the region to tho north of tho rail road Is producing thousands of cattlo. Hogs come from the Palauso and Walla Wulla. Travel Is very light, but the North ern Pacific gets its share under tho popular management of A. D. Charl ton at Portland. They maintain the high character of their dining car line, and their tourist sleepers aro ; clean and well managed. Tho Pull- man sleepers were not crowded and tho few people In them looked I like the Dem ocratic freedom, of tho poorer cars, where there is not so much stylo and Highest of all in Leavening Power.

But, alas, for human greed nnd scllshticsst A water ditch seems to breed tho spirit of monopoly-nnd oppression. Tho mnn who controls that power to bless these arid icgloiH seldom uses It, but to crush those dependent on him. The strong arm of tho government alone can cotno. to tho rcscuo of tho people, nnd 1 fear we will bo long waiting. Any second-class monarchy would have done more for tho arid regions than our government has done. In England If tho government falls to propose propor measures of relief to tho pcople.or parliament tails to endorse thoso that aro proposcd,thc question goes to tho country. Tho ministry resigns and tho question Is submitted to the pcoplo; but we havo no referendum or any kind, and wo will never havo the highest blessings ot a popular form or government until tho pcoplo can originate and pass upon Important measures.

Last evening, owing to tho opprcs hIyouoss of tho heat within tho house, A, Blauchot, residing In North Salem, determined to sleep on tho porch. Tho porch has a level surface of about (I feet square with sides sloping. This ho thought would make an excel lent resting plnco Accordingly ho pro pared himself and retired for tho night.

Strategy of the Insurgents Much for Royalists. Too Key West, July 20. Tho Spaniards under General Sunrez Ynclau have sustained n crushing defeat at the hands of tho Insurgents under Antonio Maceo. Not only was Ynclan's column defeated with heavy loss, but IMs cur rently reported In Havnna that the Spanish genoral himself wns captured and Is now held a prisoner by Maceo. The battle Is said to have occurred on July 15, near Mneeo's Btronghold, InPlnaidol Itlo. For tlio last two weeks tho rebels havo been very ag gressive, and small parties havo re peatedly attacked tho ;trocha, cans lug the .Spaniards much annoyance. Ynclau was ordered to drive back these detached .bauds of Cubans, nnd for this purposo took with him 2000 men. Maceo seems to have expected such ft movemontnnd arranged to ambush tho Spaniards. He stationed a largo force In a favorablo spot, and ordered his dotnehed bands to draw Ynclnn Into tho trap, Tho Spaniards followed tho Insurgent skirmishers Incautiously and foil into tho ambush. Thon tho Cubans opened llro from all sldc9, which throw tho Spaniards Into con fusion. Whllo tho Spaniards were thus besot, tho Cubans charged nnd completely routed their foes. Ynclnn miidon desporuto effort to rally his demoralized forces, but was sur rounded by tho Cubans and compolled to surrendor. It lu said In Havana thnt tho Span iards woro pursued almost to tho troclia, and lost moro than 300 killed and wounded. Thoro wero 11 olllcors among tlio killed. Tlio Cubans here also say that Maceo will hold Ynclau as a hostago to save tho lives of prom inent Insurgent olllcors who have been captured by tho Spaniards. Ono of thoso olllcors Is Capote. If this rebel louder Is shot by the Spaniards, it Is thought Ynclau will meet tho samo fato at tlio hands of Maceo. ,- Noted Dead, Rome, July 20.-Cotonol Daniel E. Htingorford, father or Mrs. John W.
