A Chinaman illegally in this country
has been discovered by the customs off
GERS at Key West. The law requires
that he be deported to country from
whence he came. But as he came from
Cuba, and the Chinaman don't want to
go back as he is; afraid of being shot as a
spy, and as it will take fleet of war
vessels to make a landing there, itseems
little of a puzzle. Besides that Cuba
may be United States before they can
get him back anyhow.

WHEAT, SKY HIGH.

Wheat had wings this week and touch
/ ed prices that nobody ever dreamed
could be possible under any ordinary
circumstances again. Any man year
ago prophesying dollar and halt wheat
in Pembina county would have been
considered out of his mind, and yet ac-
tual sales were made on Monday of a
car load ''to arrive" from Pembina at
$l.76 in Minneapolis being s1.6l here,
On car was sold on Saturday at S1.32, one
at $l.40 and two cars at $l.44. Wheat
was SIT at Duluth on Monday, since
then it has declined somewhat. George
LaDoux OF Neche, and Geo. Barron of
Macarthur sold this week at big prices.
AS to the future of wheat it is pure
guess work and he who prophesies now
has no more foundation to work on than
he who prophesied year ago. The
price of Contract" wheat such as trades
are made in on the board, is % cents or
more above inferior grades and is quite
equal to the highest grade. This differ
ence if nothing else, shows how much
Of the present price is dependent upon
speculation. The winter wheat crops
have passed the winter we'll and the pros
poets are good for a large crop in the
United States, and by the last Of June it
will begin to come into the grain mark
cts in large quantities. Confidence in
future high price is evidently felt on the
boards Of trade and it would have been
possible to contract wheat this week in
the county for September delivery at 85
cents, and the Pembina county farmer
will not kick at that figure. Atleast as
long as he can buy calico for cents a
yard and other manufactured products
IN proportion: Though We don't believe
will be maintained. Either the prices 81
cereals win so down o. the prices Of
ufactured articles will 90 up.

LATEST WAR NEWS.

Up to Wednesday the war news has
been comparatively uneventful. Prepa-
ration of the land forces for future work
has been the chief business of the war
department. Everywhere the numbers
of men seeking to enlist far out-number
the quota called. North Dakota militia
are in camp at Fargo and are being mus
tered in as volunteers in the U. S. army.
There is no telling when they will be
ordered to the front Later news from
Dewey confirms the first report and
adds that he not only destroyed the
Spanish fleet but captured Cavite, the
place where the Spaniards had their ma
val depot and strongest batteries. SO
far Dewey has made no attempt to take
the city of Manila for several reasons,
though it is at his mercy. He has too
few men to properly guard the city if he
took it, as the Spanish have quite an
army quartered there. The insurgents
are back of the city and ready to take
possession when Dewey assists, but it is
thought that Dewey does not care to
give them possession fearing that they
will sack the city and commit other de-
predations on life and property. The
government is fitting out ship load of
supplies at San Francisco for Dewey
whicn will be despatched at once.
Whether troops will also be sent is as
yet not certain, but it is very probable
that they will follow in brief time.
The two questions of the week are un-
answered at this writing Wednesday.
Where is the Spanish fleet that left Cape
de Verde about ten days ago and what
is Sampson going to do? It is qnite set
tied in the minds of the newspapers and
reporters that Sampson and his fleet has
gone to meet the Spanish fleet if lie can
find them off Puerto Rico, and il he
fails to find them to taSe Puerto Rico at
once.
THURSDAY AFTERNOON
And evening dispatches say that Ad-
miral Sampson with nine ships is bonn
harding San Juan, which is the principal
seaport and capital of Porto Rico.
Wednesday some Of our blockading
squadron bombarded Cardenas which is
about eighty or ninety miles east of
Havana. There was a sharp, short fight
with the shore batteries, and indications
are that some of our men were killed.
ss An English vessel brings news to Hong
Kong that the Concord had a. terrific
battle with Spanish gun boat which
was assisted by shore batteries. After
fighting the Concord sunk
the Spaniard. The Concord is next to
tthe smallest Of the vessels with Dewey,
lis about !. 200 tons and has six guns.

One of the best things we have heard
of Senator Hansbrough is his recommen-
dation of Lieut.. Creel of Devils Lake as
captain of one of the cavalry companies
to be raised in this state. The two men
have been for years the bitterest of per-
sonal and political enemies, but Creel
has all of the qualifications for cavalry
officer and it was magnanimous in Hans
brough to recognize the fact.

FUTURE POSSIBILITIES.

The London Spectator says the Amer
leans will emerge from this war with
much broader views than before That
having taken our place among nations
as power, that we will almost neces-
sarily have to keep that place, and as
result we will build and keep up strong
er navy than ever before and one that
will give us at least the third place
among nations.
/ As we said last week, whether by our
own will or against it, we are forced to
recognize the fact that we have neigh
bors, some of whom are likely at times,
to be troublesome. A hundred years
ago the United States was almost isolat-
ed by the broad expanse of waters on
either side. Thirty days was the brief
est time for communication with Eu-
rope. To-day man can almost go
around the earth in that period, willis
communication is Instantaneous. A
hundred years ago the foreign COM
merce of any nation was small. Each
nation lived largely in itself or only trad
! ed with nearby neighbors. Now most
nations live by their foreign trade. One
nation exchanging its products, agricul-
tural, mineral or manufactured, with the
other.
The explorations and colonizations OF
| yet II, :o1o IL, &C. IL,
have added greatly to this foreign COM
merce and nations have come to look to
these new lands largely for markets for
their manufactures and for supplies of
food and raw material. The conquests
of the old times were for power. the con-
quests of to-day are for commerce. The
United States in the beginning was al
most purely an agrie ultural land, but
now our miners, our manufacturers and
merchants are seeking markets all over
the world. Success i'll the present war
and good diplomatic work at settling of
the terms of peace may result in many
commercial benefits. The United
States seeks no foreign colonies, but
does seek trade, and this war may put
us in a position in both the East and
West Indies to- be ,l, more even terms
with some of our European competitors.
Our commerce needs the power and
prestige of a navy, our navy needs coal
piles at convenient points and it will be
strange if this war does not result in
snppiying these needs 1T least to some
extent.

From the fact she fought alone tits prob
able that she was on scouting duty out
side of Manila Bay away from the squad
ron.
The advices from the Philippines
show things to be in bad state as the
insurgents are taking advantage of the
state of things to revenge themselves on
the Standards. Owing to the small
number of men at his command, Dewey
is powerless to prevent
A telegram from London says, that
our American ambassador Hays has
positive information that the Spanish
fleet is at Cadiz. This, if true, indicates
that Spain has practically given up Cuba
and Porto Rico. They may send their
fleet after Dewey but it is long distance
to go and they would find it difficult to
get coal on the way.

The study of geography during the
last sixty days has been pretty general.
Three months ago the average citizen
couldn't have properly located as many
as two of dozen places which are now
matters of every day knowledge; though
it does make ones blood run cold even
yet to hear someone wondering why the
president don't send Sampson at once to
the assistance OF Dewey, or wondering
what will happen when the Spanish flo
tilla from Cape de Verde arrives at Ma
nilla this week: It is a curious fact how
ever to think that the masts Of the ships
in Dewey's squadron at Manila point in
almost exactly opposite direction to the
lraasts in Simpsons fleet-and yet both
point perpendicularly.

Lieut.. Andrews. Rowan, of the 10Th u.
S. Infantry, who has just returned from
a perilous trip to the insurgent camp in
Cuba, was formerly stationed at Fort
Pembina and is remembered by many of
our citizens. Mr.. Rowan was in great
danger Of being caught by the Spaniards
and in all probability would have suffer-
ed the same fate as did Major Andre, Of
the British army, during the revolution
who came ashore near New York on a
similar errand to Benedict Arnold.
Lieut.. Rowan was sent probably for two
purposes, one purpose being to give
Gomez information so that he could act
in conjunction with our troops and the
other to find out by inspection of what
sort and size the insurgent army is COM
posed. Lieut.. Rowan speaks Spanish
fluently and is an expert map maker.
