cusANs TO BE EDUCATED.
General wheeier's Plan Finding Favor at
Colleges


New York. Nov. 11.-General Joseph
Wheeler Is deeply interested in the ed
ucation of Cuban young men. He be-
lieves that IL young Cubans will come
to this country and be tutored and then
return home they will be of great use
in developing Cuba and introducing a
stable form of government.
General Wheeler has commissioned
Gilbert X. Harroun. treasurer of I'm
ion College, TO ask the American col
leges If each of them would give free
education to two or more Cubans If
the right sort of men could be found
TO secure a college course in this coun-
try.
Mr.. Harroun has written to more than
300 college presidents In tine United
States asking them TO cooperate and
advance General Wheeler's plan. More
than 100 replies are AT hand and with
one accord the colleges agree to take
two or more young men who can pass
the necessary examinations, and who
can come vouched for as to character,
and make them beneficiaries to the ex-
tent of free tuition.
In many cases the colleges agree to
aid the young men beyond free tuition
IN several instances the colleges, recog-
nizing the difficulties under which the
young men in Cuba have labored, have
agreed to receive them without insist
ing upon passing the examinations

Fusion state ticket. with the possible
exception OF superintendent of public
instruction, by average pluralities of
900. Republicans concede it.
The same figures make it certain that
the Republicans have the Legislature
on joint ballot and probably both
houses. The senate stands: Republi-
cans, 20; Fusionists, u, one in doubt
The house: Republicans, 4S; Fusion
lists, 46, six in doubt. Fusionists state
house officials admit the loss of the
Legislature, but the campaign man
ayers have not yet fully conceded it,
The contest in many districts was ex-
ceedingly close, two members winning
by single vote. In Richardson coun-
ty the summoning of n district judge
and a mandamus suit was necessary to
compel precinct judges of election to
sign certificates of house member
who had won by three votes.

these precincts and from several still
missing in Cass and Bellamie counties

Towne carried Duluth by more than
