Kind Words.

T. G. Wilson, formerly a prominent business man of this city and who founded the Tacoma Globe in 1885, is now business manager of the Stikeen River Journal, Fort Wrangel, Alaska.
 Blade, Whatcom, Wash.
 One of the best indications We have seen of the success of the Alaska country came to hand this week in the form of a bright, well-prnted news paper called the Stikeen River Journal, published at Fort Wrangel. It is in the hands of a syndicate and an old Lindsay boy is it's business manager. The aforesaid boy is T. G. Wilson, who used to come to meals at the sound of s'Tug." Mr. Wilson learned how to act in printing office from Mr. Barr and Mir. Cooper in the palmy days of the Post and Watchman. The Journal is not very large paper but it gets lots of advertising and the subscription price is $3 per year in advance for ap- bearing once week. If the hustling business manager can keep that con- bination in eXistance, this Wrangel paper is an assured success We hope so. -Watchman, Lindsay, Canada.

rownsite Trustee.

A fortnight ago we nominated Mr. John l.. Romer for Townsite Trustee. We did it without his knowledge, be- cause we know Mr. Romer is too proud man to be self-seeker. We have known him many years. At our first meeting he was in charge of the Ana cortes townsite, in the state of Wash ihgton, as the land agent of the Ore- gon Improvement Company. He went into forest and in eighteen months had sold s3,00O, GOO of property and es- tablishcd a city of the third class, with a population of over 5000 people; seven ocean docks; a system of water works; electric lights; miles of electric street railway; thirty miles of railway through the Skagit valley to Hamilton; and the terminus of a transcontenental railway with the same rates enjoyed by San Francisco, Portland, Seattle and Ia coma. It was the most successful boom ever inaugurated and carried to con- sumation in the P,lcific north west. We have therefore the best of reasons for recognizing his signal ability as a man of method, practical in all matters relating to land. No man claiming his residence here is more highly respect ed than he, for his administrational Aability and sound judgment, knowledge of men and universal approachableness.
 That we made no mistake in our opinion of him, the following recom- mediation signed by 90 per cent of our representative citizens affords positive proof.
 Mr. r. U. Whitney took the paper around and says he was astonished at the universal willingness of the people he waited upon to testify their appre- citation of Mir. Romer's fitness for the position.
 MT. Romer has expressed himself in his otf-hand way, that he would rather keep the paper and let the position go, if he could do it consistently.

MASSO TALKS
 MOST GLOWINGLY Of the Prospects of Cuba
 Libre. RACE QUESTION B0BS UP At Santiago Between White and Colored Oficers-Negroes Want to Eat at the Same Restaurant With
 the White Officers.
RACE QUESTION B0BS UP

Santiago de Cuba, October 13.-Senor Bar tolomew Masso, accompanied by two mem bers of his staff arrived at Manzanillo to- day from Santa Cruz del Sur, a town in Puerto Principe, about seventy-five miles from Manzanillo where the Cubans now have their headquarters, and where on Oc- tober 2O the Cuban assembly will meet to elect a new prisident and to decide as to the plans for disbanding the army, if disband- ment is considered advisable, and as to other important matters.
 He called at once on Colonel Ray who received him courteously, expressed pleas ure at the opportunity of an interview, and said he hoped Senor Masso would arrange .or disbanding the Cubans under General Rios in the neighborhood of Manzanillo. so that work in the fields could begin. He also earnestly advised the president of the cuban provisional government to disband the Cuban troops at all points How in pos session of the United States forces in order that the men might give the assistance so greatly needed to place the country in a position to recover from the evils of the three years war.
 A question has cropped up that is causing General Wood, who in the absence of Gen eral Lawton, is in command of the mili- tary department of Santiago, not little perplexity. majority of the officers of the immune regiments from the southern states object to eating at the same boards with colored officers, most of whom are from the northern states. The colored men, apparently desirous of bringing the matter to an issue, informally reported that they could not get served at the principal Spanish restaurant under existing Spanish law, whereas the American law compelled a proprietor of any house of public enter tainment to serve all who pay. The res- taurant proprietor involved complained that If he served the colored officers he would lose almost all of his paotronage, southerners General Wood has appealed to the common sense of the colored officers and advises that the restaurant be turned into a club.
 Quentin Bandera, the famous negro gen. eral of the Cuban army, will soon be ap- pointed assistant chief of police of San tiago.
 Colonel Hoods Second immune regiment (white) now at Alto Sengo, is under orders to be ready at eight hours notice to proceed to Hoquin, this province, which the Span- iards are about to evacuate.
 The peculiar condition of the surround ing country calls for the presence of United States troops as soon as the Spanish leave.

out this statement Is the fact that in yes- terday's bloody work not single Virden miner was killed and only one slightly in- jured.
 There was report on the streets early that 100 negroes at Pana had been killed last night and one of the shafts burned. The report came from Springfield ana proved, but a wild rumor on investigation, Pana reporting everything tranquil there.
 The strikers here but lily concealed their happiness at the first news, and there were many regrets and expressions of hatred when the rumor proved false
 Executive Committee Meeting
 meeting of the executive committee of the strikers was held this afternoon. Chair man John Belger asserted that not man among the Thiel agency and Pinkerton de- 5tectives stationed within the stockade had been sworn in as deputy. He followed this statement by declaring that all of them could be held as accessories in a charge of murder. He stated there were twenty men inside the stockade when the train bearing the negroes stopped at the shaft yesterday at noon, and that fifty Pinkerton and Thiel men acting as guards were on the train. He said none of these men are residents or the state, and consequently Sheriff Dav- enport had refused to swear them in.
 The matter was discussed and aafeeision maoe to employ counsel and lay thekAfa tier before the grand jury.
 The excitement of yesterday prior to the arrival of the negro train was equalled to- night when it became known that a spe- cial -tra n consisting of one box car, three apparently empty coaches and a caboose that passed through here at 5:25 this even- ing bore two loads of negroes taken through here to Springfield yesterday. The train went south and by a clever, ruse suc- ceeded in passing through Virden quietly and without interference. big crowd of miners was at the stat on. but the militia held them in check. When the train stopped at the stockade Captain Fenler who was in command shouted: Don't allow any one to d.sembark from that train.'
 The gate was opened and file of sol- diers rushed out on the double quick with bayonets fixed and lined up alongside of the train. General Manager Lukens made a formal request that the employees be al- lowed to land and enter the stockade. Cap tain Pewter declined to grant this. Then MT. Lukens put it in the form of demand but the officer replied that he was under orders from Governor Tanner to prevent ->~~-~---~-------~c~-- ---.---------->--~-~

NEXT IN LOUISVILLE.
Knight Templars Elect Officers and
 Choose Meeting Place.

Plttsburg, October 13.-At the meeting of the grand encampment of the Knight Tenn plars today the officers were elected and Louisville was selected as the place of next meeting of the conclave.
 There was no contest made for any po- sition except grand junior warden. The following was the result of the election of officers:

 The committee appointed to canvass the sentiment of the general conclave as to the next place of meeting then reported by recommending Louisville, and the encamp- ment at once proceeded to vote, which re- suited on the first ballot 75 in favor of Louisville and 6a for Milwaukee. It was decided to hold the next conclave on the fourth Tuesday in August, 1901.
 While the social programme for tomor- row will prevent a continuation of recep- tions and entertainments for those who have not yet gone away, the time of the grand encampment will be taken up with the question of the revision of the consti- tution. The matter of selecting Washing ton, D.. C., as the permanent convention city of the Knights Templar of America Is expected to come up again.

COMMISSIONERS
 IN A TRIANGLE Spain Wants More Time for
 Evacuation. SURRENDER WAR MATERIAL If This Time is Granted-The Ameri- cans Claim That the Question of the Cuban Debt is To-
 tally Irrelevant
SURRENDER WAR MATERIAL

Paris, October 13.-The peace commission CTS held their session today as usual.
 The Temps this evening says:
 "We have received from our Madrid cor respondent a dispatch dated October 12, as- serting that a report was circulated in Madrid on Wednesday that the commits sioners were exclusively occupied with the Cuban question:, and that the commission CTS had agreed excepting regarding the evacuation by the Spanish troops, the sur render of war material and the question of the Cuban debt. The respective govern ments are now examining these questions. Spain is said to be willing to surrender the war material provided the Americans ac- cord an extension of time for the evacua- ton and in spite of the fact that the Amer jeans will assume the administration of the island on December l.
 "An agreement on the debt question Is more difficult, the Americans claiming that ---e qrS stion Is irrelevant, because the United States is not annexing Cuba. The Americans further hold that majority of ,..e Cuban debt was incurred before the civil war of 1895, and that the whole debt since contracted has been devoted entirely to the prevention of Cuban independence, wherefore the ultimate settlement of the deuC should devolve on the future of the Cuban govrnment; that Spain would prefer the annexation of Cuba to the United States. It is further affirmed that, failing in an agreement between the commissions CTS, the matter will be submitted to arbi- tration."
 The Temps adds that the commissions their views on the clauses of the protocol which are being discussed.
