A COM M UNlCkTION.
Editor Willmar Tribune:

Editor Willmar Tribune:
From a remark made in the
Willmar Tribune of June 18th, l
see it stated that there exists
trouble between the Town of
East Lake Lillian and the Coun-
ty Commissioners, regarding the
delinquent capitolIand rents, and
such complaint appears as a slur
upon said supervisors.
|, as town clerk of said town,
am always present at the meet
ings of said board and have not
observed any action taken con-
trary to legal rights. Therefore,
| find that the statement as Civ
en- is incorrect.
The delinquent lease fund, from
the State Ca pitol lands situated
in the Town of East Lake Lillian,
which according to the law of
1891 belongs to the said town
and due 1894, could not be re-
taken and used for the, Crow
River ditch project by law of
1896, without the consent OF the
legal voters of the town, at a
regular town meeting.
The supervisors have no au-
thority, as l understand, to give
the peoples rights away, what
ever, on one hand; and Oh the
other, l think it is the supervis-
or's duty to defend that towns
right which they as a board rep
resent.
Let US do unto others as we
will others should do unto us.
Respectfully,
l.. P. OwRE.

sHEEHAN NOT INDICTED.
The Grand Jury Did Not Find the
Charges Substantfuted.

NEW YORK, April 5.-The extraordinary
January Z. handed to Judge Ingraham in
the court Of oyer and terminer today a
small number Of indictments. Judge In
graham then thanked the Jurors and dis
charged them. 1t was thought that there
were six indictments in the lot.
In handing in the indictments, Fore
man Francis H. Leggett said that in his
opinion there was good reason for the con-
tinuance of the work on which they had
been engaged. He thought that other city
departments, which mad not been regularly
considered by them but which in the
course of the Investigations had been men,
toned, should be subjected to a more
searching investigation.
Judge Ingraham thanked the jurors for
the work they had done, and said he would
do all in his power to bring the matter be-
fore another grand jury.
The grand jury found no reason for bring
ing i'll an indictment against John c. Shee-
han, the police commissioner. They con-
sidered the charge made against him that
he had induced an election inspector in the
twenty-fifth election district of the thir-
teenth assembly district to violate the
election law, and found that the evidence
was not sufficient to warrant an indict-
ment. The charge made against Mr.. Shee-
han by Capt. Schmittberger before the
LeNow committee that he had induced the
captain to allow man named Maynard to
open gambling house in the "tenderloin''
precinct also considered, and was
found TO be insufficient.

SENATOR CALL ON CUBA
He Favors the Independence of the People
Backed by the United Sta,es
NiDe-Tcnths of the Cubans Favor An.
nexation to This Countrywide
Island II Rich Market.

Speaking of the mass meeting held in
Jacksonville last night and the resolutions
adopted, Senator Call of Florida today
said:
Il have frequently introduced resolutions
in the Senate requesting the President Of
the United States to open negotiations with
Spain looking to the independence of Cuba
on the basis of an issue of bonds to Spain
by Cuba as compensation, these bonds to
be guaranteed to any reasonable extent
by the United States.
Recently 1 have called the attention of
the State Department to the condition of
affairs in Cuba, and urged action in line
with the resolutions referred to, and / shall
opportunity offers.
"At present the Cubans have not estab-
lished any provisional government that we
could recognize. but the moment they do
organize one that seems to have a reason
able chance of permanence. 1 shall strongly
urge their recognition as belligerents.
People in Favor of Independence.
"Nine-tenths of the people of Cuba are in
favor of independence. and most of them
are in favor of annexation to the United
States.
"Of course, the people oe the United States
do not favor the annexation of any people
until 1t is absolutely evident that they
themselves desire it, but we are all anxious
for their independence. Cuba offers one OF
the finest markets for US in the world. 1t
is one of the richest and, under proper
sanitary laws, will be one of the heaithiest,
countries to be found anywhere, and would
be a perfect garden If under our control.
While Floridians many not be unanimously
in favor of absolute free trade with Cuba,
they all would like much closer commercial
relations with it as an independent gov
ernment under the protection CT the United
States.
Make Excellent Citizens.
1.-The Cubans are courageous, bright and
quick-witted, and make excellent citizens.
In spite of the absence of public schools in
Cuba, the people have managed to keep
themselves very high in the scale of in
telligence and knowledge. They pay an
annual tribute of over s220oo,000 to Spain.
enough to maintain the army that is to be
used to try to crush them. l earnestly
hope for their independence"

VALUABLE TO ROWING MEN.
A Machine to Record the Efficiency Of
different STYLES of Stroke.

Different styles of Stroke.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, April 5.-The new
engineering department at Harvard is .ry-
ing an experiment which, If successful,
will be of practical value in the study of
the best stroke for rowing scientifically.
especially in crew work. The announce
ment of this experiment was made last
night by Prof. Ira n. Hollis, who is the
head Of the department Of engineering.
The device is for registering autographical-
ly the efficiency of the stroke of an oars
man from the moment catches the
water until 1t is pulled through to the fin
ish and brought back In the next stroke.
In one room of the building devoted to
engineering is set up a rowing machine en-
a frictionless support, the object of this
being to record accurately the energy eX-
pended. The machine is almost done. The
members of the varsity crew have sat in
the seat and have made successful tests Of
the efficiency of the machine
The machine is expected to prove valu-
able, not only for correcting individual
faults, but also because it will disclose
with scientific accuracy the most effective
style of stroke. Prof. Hollis is interested
in the scheme purely as a scientific expert
ment, although he has not lost sight of its
value to rowing men. 1t is intended as a
simple lesson of the practicability of
course in engineering.
