of H. P. Hall. His desk and the one
occupied by the editor of this paper

porter, as we'll as young man of
great personal magnetism. He was
the author of several books, and as
each appeared it showed his rapid de-
velopnent of a fine literary ability.
He also wrote many poems, which
have been given general circulation
on account of their merit. Mr.. Lees
death leaves big vacancy in the

men of the State who we're
fortunate enough to know him, will re-
greet his untimely demise. He leaves

The Hon. j. T. McCleary cast his
vote in favor of the Loud postal bill,
which was so gloriously defeated on
the third reading in the lower house
of Congress a week or more ago. This
bill, if it had become law, prohibited
country newspapers from sending out
sample copies, unless paid for at the
rate of one cent apiece, and it further
compelled them to sort out the mail
for each State, and put it in separate
sacks. With some papers this would

THE CUBAN CRISIS.


The American Spanish trouble, aris-
ing over the Spanish atrocities in Cuba
and the millions of dollars lost to the
United States by reason of the revolu-
ton on the Queen of the Antilles. and
the blowing up of the United States
battleship Maine in Havana harbor, is
in about the same uncertain condition
as it was when The GAZETTE went to
press last week.
True, the report of the Board of In
quiry into the cause of the Maine ex-
plosion is probably now in the hands
of the President, or will be inside of
three days at the most, but there is no
telling what the administration will
do after it has read the report, and
learned what everybody now knows,
viz: that the Maine was blown up
from some external cause, undoubted-
ly the explosion of mine by Spanish
hands. Spain will attempt to gain
time by entering a protest to the re-
port, and it is question whether the
administration will not again display
a certain streak of the lily liver by al
lowing Spain time to enter it's protest.
In the meantime, however, every ef-
fort is being made to strengthen the
Atlantic coast Notifications. The
rounding up of the war vessels at Key
West is going on rapidly, and the Or
egon has been ordered to sail around
the Horn from San Francisco and ioin
its ships on the eastern coast for the
purpose of fighting, if fighting is
called for. Artillery companies are
being moved from inland forts to the
seaboard; the cities on the eastern
coasts are being made invulnerable
against Spanish attack, ammunition,
coal, etc.. is being hurried to points
where needed, large contracts are be-
ing awarded, and every indication
seems to be that the United States
government does not expect to get
out of the dispute without firing a few
guns.
The government has purchased two
Brazilian war vessels, and is negotiat-
ing for one from the Argentine and
another from Chill. Spain has pur-
chased one vessel from Italy and is
negotiating for more.
The United States government con-
tinues to send relief to starving pa
cificos on the Queen of the Antilles,
and although retarded more or less by
the inhuman acts of the Spaniards on
the Island, it has relieved nearly
100000 people since the work com
menced.
A conservative size-up of the whole
affair seems to be that the United
States will, inside of another month,
have to acknowledge Cuban indie
pendence, demand an indemnity from
Spain for the loss of the Maine and
the 256 brave sailors who lost their
lives by the explosion that Spain will
refuse the indemnity, and that active

publican State convention or at Kill
kenny cat fight. There were more Re-
publican machine men present than
there generally is at State conven-
ton, and there were more mac ine
men kicking against the machine than
are generally found in POLITICAL
organization.
The prime object of the meeting
was to turn down the candidacy of
Capt. Samuel R. VanSant of Winona
for governor. Capt. VanSant's candi-
dacy is favored by Gov. Clough, who
some men say is dlstasteful to the Re-
publican party. That candidacy is
also favored by the rank and file of
the people. That candidacy is op-
posed by a Sleepy Eye bunch of
egotism, L. P. Hunt of Mankato, and
a number of other rank machine men
in the State, who have, simply be-
cause VanSant has not responded to
their call and stood by their machine,
come out with the statement that Van
SAINT must not be nominated at the
Republican State convention, or they
will.bolt. They organized the Man
kato meeting for that purpose aud
probably also, for the purpose of max
ing Mankato hotel business lively.
But the Mankato meeting did not
respond to the wishes of these ma
chine men. Capt. VanSant had too
many friends there-friends in the
Second Congressional district, who
we're there solely for the purpose of
seeing that the Winona soldier was
not abused, and that his excellent
chances for leading the Republican
party to victory next fall, were not
injured. Even more, it seems that
this meeting, organized by these ma
chine men, developed two things
first, sympathy for VanSant, the very
man which this meeting was intend
ing to kill, but also that there was a
very strong undercurrent against the
return of j. T. McCleary to congress
after his present term expires. His
speech on the Maine disaster, his six
years tenure, and his being theo-
retical, rather than a practical man,
all cropped out at the meeting, and
showed that with a strong leader, Mr..
McCleary would have to put up big
fight in order to gain fourth triumph
at the congressional convention.
The grevious portion of the whole
meeting is that it promises to split the
Republican party for the coming cam
paign. If split occurs, it will be
the fault Of the very men who have re-
ceived many favors at the hands of
the party, and against whom there
will be a general outburst of indig-
nation on the part of all loyal Re-
pubIicans.

Nature is an memorable accountant.
She will lend strength and energy, but
