President Mckinley wishes to treat
the insurgents with every possible
courtesy and consideration. but his
reasons for declining to recognize the
insurgent government Or any other
alleged government, are much strong
er now than they were previous to the
war. In the eyes of the world this
COVE nment is responsible for the
government of Cuba after it passes
out of control of Spain, and it is go
ing to be military government un-
til such time that the President shall
decide otherwise. In deciding upon
the permanent government for Cuba
the insurgents will not be discriminat-

SCHLEY's VICToRY.-Those who have

Admiral SIMPSONS official report OF
the naval battle resulting in the des-

in the great naval battle are fully

attempt to take credit for himself OF

Schley had no hard feeling was shown
by the following words in his report

Potatoes From Seed in Sixty-eight Days.
The potato market in Anoka opened
last Monday, with six buyers on the
ground, among them being c. II. Rines
& Co., of this place. The potatoes
which are being marketed there are
Early Ohios from seed planted on or
about May 10th, making sixty eight
days between the time of planting and
that of marketing. The price paid
was from 81 to 40 cents per bushel. AS
result of planting their potatoes in
season to secure an early market the
Anoka county farmers are getting good
prices. Mr.. Rines says that it will
be four weeks before potatoes around
Princeton can be marketed and by
that time the price will probably have
fallen to one half of what it is at pres
ent Why can not Mile Lacs county
farmers secure these good prices for
early crops as well as the farmers of
other places? It may be that the soil
in Anoka is lighter and will mature
crops quicker than ours, but certainly
there can be but a few days difference.

Fritz Kunkel's House Burned.

zzE=aar Il TICZ AunkeIS House Burned,
i Tuesday evening, about six o'clock,
people in the village noticed dense
smoke arising from point southwest
OF town and felt sure that some build
ing: was burning. Several mon drove
down the road and saw that Fritz Kun
.kel's house was on fire. A crowd soon
collected and everything on the ground
floor, with the exception of the cook
stove, was saved. There was a hot fire
in the stove and that combined with
the heat and smoke from the burning
building made things too hot for the
boys and they were obliged to abandon
the stove. The fire was caused by a
defective chimney. The premises were
formerly owned by II. r. Mallette, and
then by the Creamery company. Mr..
Kunkel purchased them some time in
the early part Of this'year The value
OF the house was about $500.
The Minneapolis Journal of last Sat-
.urday contained three-column inter-
view with T. II. Galley. of this place,
regarding the conditions existing in
the second division hospital at Chica-
mauga. Lack of water, poor food,
noise, filthiness, stencil and flies are
few of the things which Mr.. Galley SAYS
he found at the hospital. Everyone
will agree with him that there is no
excuse for any of these things existing
at any Of the camps in the United
States at the present time when Of
ficers have nothing to do but look af-
ter the welfare of the men. Mr.. Galley
also says the little extras sent to the
sick boys from home are generally
sidetracked before they reach the ones
for whom they are intended. The
matter has been taken up by the Red
Cross society of Minneapolis, and will
be investigated. Abundant proof of
the outrageous condition of the second
division hospital can be obtained if it
is honestly looked for. It should be
remembered that these charges are
not made against any of the other
hospitals. :.
Last Thursday morning when the
crew of Woodcock C Oakes went to
work in; their brick yard it was found
that during the night some sneak had
entered the premises and destroyed
seven of the belts; they were cut and
slashed into small pieces, rendering
them completely useless. It was nee
essary to suspend work while the dam
age was being repaired. The loss was
more than the cost of the belts, as
work was being rushed on a kiln Of
brick during the fine weather and the
delay was expensive. No one connected
with the yard has even ventured
guess as to who committed the act.
The men employed have always been
paid promptly and no i'll feeling in that
quarter has ever been heard of. Mr..
Woodcock is we'll known to be a pleas
ant, straightforward and honorable
man in every way, who never gave
any one any cause for enmity. The
outrage was undoubtedly perpetrated
through pure deviltry and it is to be
hoped that the perpetrator will be
caught and severely punished. .

Like the people who are prone to
criticise their neighbors, the UNION
thinks it will fail in its duty if it does
not call attention to the large number
of Canada thistles growing in Mile
Laos county. At Estes Siding there
are solid acres of them. which were as
late as last Friday in full bloom, wav-
ing uncut in all their glory. On the
Germany road they may be seen by the
roadside and every year they are
spreading to surrounding fields. This
should be a matter of vital interest to
farmers. real estate men and every
other business man in the county.
Some steps should be taken to cause
the cutting of these weeds which
have already become a menace to the
farming interests of the county.

to Paris for that purpose, but this was
changed upon representations from the
admiral that he could be Of greater
service at Manila than in Paris.
Whether or not General Merritt will
return to the Philippines has not yet
been determined; that will depend en-.

concludes it's labors. Tho choice Of q
route is left to himself, but it is ex.

Big Steel Combine the Natural
Result of the Present Busi-
ness Methods,
And Is Rather an Evolution Than
an Attempt to Bring About
Revolution.
That, at Least, Is the Opinion
Voiced by the Iron Trade
Review.
Express Companies to Be Prose-
cuted Under Federal Anti
Trust Statutes.

CLEVELAND, O., Sept. 2.-The Iron
Trade Review this week, commenting
On the big steel consolidation, says:
It is product Of events in the iron
and steel world rather than an effort to
control events. It is part of the evo-
luton in the iron industry rather than
an attempt to bring about revolution.
If it has an appearance of fixing for,
aggression, it is, only on the theory
that a war status is the surest means
of preserving peace. When the Carne-
gle Steel company became q miner OF
ore at low figure, fluotuating only
within narrow limits, the cry Of mon-
opoly went up. but no move ever made
in the history Of iron and steel manu-.
facture was more plainly the product
of an intensely competitive regime.
The Federal Steel company is one OF
the later results Of the entrance of the
Carnegie Steel company upon the
Mesabe and Gogebio ranges. An i'm
mediate result was that ore contracts
1T Chicago were written with the price
clause based on the mining cost of the

Pittsburg company, and it was only q
step from such an arrangement to the
organic union Of the Illinois company,
and the company from which, because
Of common stockholders, it made its
largest purchases Of ore.
The prominence Of Standard Oil
stockholders in the new deal has been
construed in some quarters as indica.
tive OF close relations between the two
dominant mining and transportation
companies of the Mesaba range. And
it has been only step from this in
ference to the conclusion that the
Standard Oil interest in the Lake Su.
perior consolidated mines and the Bes.
semer Steamship company might facil-
itate an understanding between the
important Pittsburg customer of the
two latter companies and the new oom.
pany. There Ii good reason to doubt
the correctness Of any such surmise.
The indications are that the competi.
ton in ore between the two leading
interests Of the Mesabe range will be
just as intense as it ever has been.
The plans Of the Federal Steel com.
pany allow for the addition of other
interests, whose inclusion would be
mutually advantageous. Should there
be no outcome Of the tentative effort
toward further absorption, it is to be
expected that outside moves will be
made, bringing other steel works and
ore producers into closer relations.
The coming year bids fair to see some
interesting events Of this nature.
