Lind Puzzles Them.

Lind's motives They Isay he offered
Gated by the lamented death of Cush-
man K Davis, to Judge Collins for an
evil purpose. 1t is the right and duty OF
the governor to make an appointment.
If he rendered the togas to Judge Col
Inns it was a magnanimous surrender of
his political preference and from an
honest desire to suggest to the
Republican legislaturet the best
man in their ranks for
the place-the most suitable one TO take
the place so long and honorably filled
by Senator Davis This is the only rea-
sonable construction that can be put
upon the motives of magnanimous John
Lind. But when an evil mind governs
nothing good can be seen. Even our
esteemed friend of the Winona Republic
an is thrown into a state Of diZty sus-
picion. Having been scabbily treated in
his scabby affiliation he refuses to be-
lieve there is honesy anywhere in the
realm Of politics We would gladly lead
him out of this delusion that he might
once more see how much good can come
out of Nazareth-the birthplace of true
patriotism and craftsmanship. Gov.
Lind has established his disinterested-
ness in the discharge of official duty. He
is too grand a character to be driven into
imitation of the malicious spirit that ac-
tuates his political opponents

Attitude of Cuhans.

Chatield Democrat.
It was asserted some time ago by an
obserVant American that the Cubans have
no idea of the duty of submitting to the
rule of the majority and consequently
are incapable of maintaining a demo-
cratic form of government. A large ma
jority OF the delegates to the constitu-
tional convention are said to be utterly
hostile to Americans, and it is reported
that Gen Maxine Gomez and Senior
Juan Guattebo have declared that the
only practical way to drive the Americans
from Cuba is to fight
The highest idea a good many Gu
bans seem to have of government is a
rule by "fght'-by a party which OBJ
by force and violence. They are just
like the other Latins of Central and
South America who oehange the admin :
istration of their government and e!e-
waite their rulers by the wager Of battle.
Perhaps it would be just as we'll for the
future of Cuba, as well as for our OWE
future welfare that this element should
attempt to get rid of the Americans by
fight This would prove the neces-
sity of our remaining in Cuba and estab-
fishing the stable and forderly govern
ment which they seem incapable OF or
ganizing. The Cubans; should be made
tend to establish a just and stable gov
eminent on the Island. In that gov
eminent we propose to give them all
the independence they are capable of
maintaining. We propose, however, for
our own peace, for the duty we owe our
own foreign nations, and lastly, for the
good of the Cubans themselves, that
the United States shall retain the SOW
ereignty of the island and absolutely
control the relations of Cuba with for
eign nations This is the only way we
can protect Cuba and avoid constant
wars of her making. We can not toler-
ate anarchy in the island. Our rela-
tons with Cuba have become such that
our safety demands absolute supremacy
over her. $50

prove an important arrest was made in
Allegheny today. ]. C. Clarke and his

just concluded discussion of plans for
the introduction Of the practical study of

Through the teachers the state expert
ment station will send out bulletins to
the various schools bearing on the par

UNEQUAL CONTEST.
Bull Moose SkOwssFfgIIf to u Moving
Passenger Train


BRANDON, Man, Dec. 25-The Pa
cjfic expI ess was half an hour late in
reaching the city last evening. The
delay was occasioned~ by one of the most
extraordinary causes ever known in
Manitoba.
The train was travelling along at
low rate of speed and had just reached
the Brandon mile board, when the en-
gineer saw a giant bull moose standing
on the track. He footed the whistle and
slowed up his train, but the king of the
forest refused to move. He was not
to be bluffed by and red eyed animal
with no more horns than a locomotive.
He was bent on fight, and tossing his
antlers high in the air in the most defiant
manner, rushed toward the engine. The
engineer saw him coming and opened up
the trottle and went at him. -
It was only a fight of a minute. The
bulls horns became wedgedi in the pilot,
and he beloved ard kicked, but to no
avail. The train pulled up and the
mangled remains were cleared away.
Conductor Fahey brought a hind GUAR
ter of the carcass into the city and his
friends are today enjoying venison.
