THE PEOPLE TRIUMPH.

Members Scorn Reed Dictation and Declare
Cuba Free and independents.
Tuesday morning the 10th, Tom.
Reed laid down his gavel and gave
up the fight for Spanish rule in Cuba,
telling his faithful llieutenants, Payne,
Dalzell, Dingley and our Dave Hen
derson that it was all over and would
be impossible to keep the house from
concurring in the senate resolutions
declaring that the people of Cuba
''are, and of right ought to be free
and independent" This with the
Teller amendment disavowing a dis
position to exercise any jurisdiction
or control over the island or its
people is the important feature in
the resolutions and most stinging
rebuke to the blundering and incom-
petence of the administration. And
to Europe this country will say
''hands off," This controversy is
between Spain and the people of
Cuba, with this country in defense of
Its declaration in behalf of the
Monroe Doctrine, which no combina-
tion of European powers must seek
to overthrow. The demand of the age
is that Spanish crime, brutality and
murder shall forever end on this
Western Hemisphere, and the people
of the United States will enforce that
demand.

Trouble With cresco.

Harmony, Mimi, April 1s.-The
farmers telephone line which has
been built and put In operation be-
tween this place and Kendallville.
Iowa, expected to build to Cresco,
Iowa, but finds that the mayor of
that place demands tribute of q
certain sum of money before he will
consent to allow them inside the cor.
poration. Preston, this county, do
mated the company $50. The legal
point raised by the Cresco mayor is
that the farmer company is not in
corporated.-St. Paul Dispatch.
Mayor Roome informs us that no
bonus is exacted for entrance to the
city, but that the farmers shall incor
porate under the state law, SO that
when the line is out of repair, the
wires down, or a pole fallen across the
street, there shall be some one whose
duty it will be to see to the matter
and put it in proper repair. This
done, he and all our people will bid it
welcome. The matter belongs TO the
city council instead of the mayor
who simply can approve or refuse to
approve what the council may do.
But the facts are the Kendallville
people of that telephone line have
never applied to the city council for
the privilege of entering the city with
its line.
