ANNEXATION NEWS.

The prospects of annexation are
better today than they have ever been.
President Dole's visit has been receiv-
ed with enthusiasm in every part of
the United States that he has visited.
At Washington he has been shown a
great deal of official social attention,
and his presence has had most ben
eficial effect.
The latest received telegram states
that the fifty-eight Senators who are
for the treaty are now pledged ire
vocably, and that there can be no
doubt of securing the two required,
out of the eight doubtful Senators.
Other advices say they have been Sc
cured, and the newspaper accounts
claim sixty-one for the treaty. The
work of those who have been against
the treaty has been very insidious,
and the manner in which the beet ST.
gar industry has been handled by the
trust has had distinct influence, but
in spite of all that has been done, the
strength of the cause has been shown
and the friends of the treaty can now
count beet sugar men on their side.
The delay in coming to vote upon
the treaty has been for its advantage.
Many of those who are opposed to II,
or are doubtful, are becoming more
and more convinced Of it's necessity.
The opposition would like snap vote
but those in charge of Hawaiian in
terests are far too keen to be caught
in any such trap. The more the truth
is known of Hawaii the more the sue
cess of the treaty is assured.
1t is quite probable that Senator
Morrill, will refrain from voting. II
that is the case there will be only tif'
ty-nine votes required.
1t is understood that if the treaty
is defeated it will remain on the cal
endar 1t is safe to say
that in case of defeat in the Senate
Islands, will be passed. Moreover
there is good news in the fact thai
Speaker Reeds opposition will not eN
tend to preventing a vote in the Louse
The statement that the Cuban ques
ton and Hawaiian annexation woulo
be made a rider to the diplomatic ant
consular bill is without foundation.
The fact is that the present posi-
ton of affairs is really narrowed dowT
to question of four or five doubtful
Senator'S Those who are in favor o
the treaty think that success in this
direction is undoubted, but there arr
strong influences at work on the 9th
er side. There is no definite date up
on which to predict when a vote will
be taken, but from the latest advice
it will not be before the middle o
February.
The more one views the situation
the better it looks. Several of our OLE
Kamaainas have received letters say
ing that in mail or two they will b.
greeted as American citizens.

Stoves are a necessity, and
the best of them will wear
out. About the only thing
you can do is to buy the kind
that will last the longest time
and give the best satisfaction
during the time it stands. In
this country the wood is high
in price and of hard variety,
which makes a very hot fire,
which is hard ON the stove.

Nagel Defeats Pfederle for
- Alderman.

The city election in New Ulm this
year was devoid of interest. All cleo,
tloneering methods were eliminated and
the vote was comparatively small, only
656 in all. In the First ward the total
number of votes polled was 227, in the
Second ward 201 and in the Third 22S.
For mayor, Chas. Weschcke was OF
course reelected, there being no we'll
defined opposition. In the First ward
he received 49, votes, in the Second 155
and IN the Third 1876. This gave him a
total vote of 512, as against scattering
vote of SO, divided chiefly between Capt.
Burg and W. G. Alvin.
The contest over the clerkslllp was the
only thing that gave interest to the cam
paign. Keller made very creditable
showing, but Strasser failed signally.
The vote by wards was as follows:

Horatio S. Rubens, the New York
counsel Of the Cuban jnnta, made an
important statement Wednesday. He
said:
have it from . Spanish authority
high in financial circles that the whole
course now proposed by the president is
in pursuance of an understanding be-
tween Washington and Madrid the
object of which is to secure peace in
Cuba Cuban acceptance Of Spanish
autonomy, without the shedding of a
drop Of American blood or the expendi-
tnre Of another dollar Of American mon
ey.s See how perfectly the proposals,
with this light upon them, are adapted
to work out to that end the intrinsic
evidence alone is almost sufficient to
prove the accuracy Of my information,
which runs thus:
It has been agreed between Spain and
the United States that this govern
ment, while declaring for Intervention,
shall refuse to recognize the indepen-
dence of Cuba. It is mutually hoped
by the two governments that the Cubans
will then become convinced that the OBJ
ject for which they have been fighting
all these years independence cannot
be obtained, and that they will accept,
perforce, first, an armistlce, and eventu-
ally, autonomy under the Spanish flag.

The Message.

The Message.
The president message was given to
congress Monday noon, and, as far as
Americans in Havana were concerned, it
might just as we'll have been published
sooner.
It is not a strong document. Its tenor
from beginning to end indicates that it
was prepared especially to satisfy the
''peace at any price" people, and Of
course they are loud in it's praise.
Those who believe that matters have
dragged along to an extent that reflects
upon the honor of the United States are
not only disappointed, but thoroughly
disguised. The president doesn't ask
that congress take decisive action, but
merely asks the legislative body to au-
thorize him to take measures to secure
termination of hostilities in Cuba
and to secure the establishment of q
stable government there, and to use the
military and naval forces of the United
States as may be necessary for those
purposes.
The president says this is the only
hope of relief from q condition which
can no longer be endured. The remedy
lies in the enforced pacifcatlon of the
island. The issue is now with congress-
and he awaits its action, standing pre-
pared to carry out every obligation i'm
posed on him by the constitution.
1t isn't at all likely that congress will
give the president any such discretionary
power.
The majority of members have lost
confidence in him of late.
They don't believe his conduct in the
future would be any less vacillating OF
less determined than it has been during
the past three weeks.
For this reason they are apt to con-
clude that the adjustment Of the Spanish
difficulty will be safer for the national
honor if left in their own hands.
The message only asks for armed in
tervention and extends but slight hope
to the insurgents.
Congress unquestio nably favors armed
intervention, Cuban recognition and re-
venge for the Maine, all at one and the
same time.
In the concluding lines ofthe message
SPANS decree for q suspension Of hos
ilities is submitted to congress for just
and careful attention, with the obserya-
ton that if the measure attains sue
cessful result, then our aspirations as q
peace loving people will be realized.
# it fails, il will only be another JUS
LITIGATION for our contemp plated action.

The opinion of grain men through
out the Kansas corn belt has be en-
secured as to the late corn, and all
agree that not more than half a crop
need be expected. Continued dry
and hot weather has DESTROYED
thousands of acres. The corn blades
have rolled up under the scorching
heat, and the crop in many localities
will not make good forage.

which has rot yet matured, is down
