WINCHELL'S MISTAKE.

Several months ago The GAZETTE
stated that if the officers of the Min
nesota Gold Mining & Refining Co.
found more than trace gold in the
quartz at their mine north of Delhi
Prof. Winchell and his staff would be
proved prevaricators and must, &C.
cording to sense of honor, resign
their positions in the State University.
They are being paid by the State to
encourage mining and not prevent the
development of any mineral resources
in the State. The GAZETTE has seen
sufficient during the past few weeks
to warrant the statement that Prof.
Winchell and staff should resign. It
has seen more than trace gold taken
from the mine and reduced to an ex-
cellent quality of bullion. We have
seen it taken out in paying quantities,
at least from 10 to Is per cent on the
investment, and as the work progress
es the quality and quantity grows
better.

CUBAN'S LIBERTY,

"There can be no settlement of the
war but absolute liberty" is the Ian
guage used by T. Estrada Palma,
Cuban delegate to the United States,
in speaking of the attempt of Spain
to quell the insurrection by granting
autonomy or home rule. The fact of
the matter is that Spain has made SO
many promises to Cubans in the past,
promises which have been repeatedly
broken and which have ended in
drenching the fertile soil of the fair
est of the Antilles in Cuban and Span
ish blood, that no reliance can be
placed on the promises or pledges of
the Queens government at Madrid.
Palma's answer is one that will meet
with responsive chord in the heart
of every true American or liberty low
ing soul. It has the right ring and
indicates that Cubans are sure of ulti-
mate triumph and that bankrupt
Spain is in despair over the probable
loss of the last of her American DOS.
sessions which she has so cruelty
treated, plundered and wrecked.
The Cubans have won in every bat
tie so far. In the battle of Lechura q
severe and bitter defeat was admins
tered to the Spaniards and had it no,
been for the latter taking to the coast
and receiving the protection of &
Spanish man-of-mar the army would
have been thoroughly routed. Now
the rainy season has set in. The Span.
iards are obliged to cease active mill
tary operations ON account of malaria
and yellow fever. On the other hand
the acclimated Cubans will continue
on the offensive and we will be sur
prised if we do not hear of many Gu.
ban victories before next fall. Good
luck and victory for the Cubans.

A FUNNY MISTAKE.

The terrific cracking, boiling and
believing like sounds closely resemb-
ling thunder, preceded by brilliant
flashes or scintillations across the
armament and resembling lightning,
all during the early hours of last
Thursday morning, were not thunder
and Lightning as the whole South
western Minnesota populace presumes
and as one or two ambitious cor
respondents have wired into their pa
pers. The sharp, electric flashes,
painting the whole sky, first white,
then red, and then murky black, were
but the ebullitions of Joy that ema-
mated from the thousands Of human
beings, residents of the south side of
Renville county, gathered at Morton,
to participate in that wonderful hu-
man pageant of endurance or as to
who, or how many, could keep up the
county seat removal jubilee and fes-
tival the longest. The terrific crack
ing, bolting and believing SO closely
resembling thunder, and which i'm
mediately followed these flames of
human sacrifice were but the groans
of those Oliviaites who, uniting in one
chorus of sorrow, used this mode of
swearing vengeance on Morton and
Mother Beaver. The drops that fell,
and came thicker and thicker, and
faster and faster, we're but the tears
of our Olivia band of mourners, inter-
mingled with the effervescent cham
pagne shooting through space and

In the background of the now and
then brilliantly illuminated firmanent

ure of the Hon. George Beaver Sacred
Heart Welsh. Like Colossus of
Rhodes his phantom appeared in the

pinnacle of the Morton school house

The GAZETTE has been told that
Prof. N. V. Winchell has himself ad-
mitted during the past three weeks
that he did not investigate the matter
as close as he should have done when
here with John Goodnow last fall.
We regret that a person receiving a
salary from the State should censure
and attempt to tear down in an official
bulletin, such as was issued by Prof.
Winchell, an industry or resources of
the State before making satisfactory
Investigation. 1t certainly shows
poor judgment and calls for retire
ment from the chair he occupies.
His language was bitter and severe
and was unworthy of the source from
whence it came unless full and care

been made.
