to make the state fremen's tourna-
ment, which is to be held here June
II, II, 13 and ii specially attractive
event, not only for the visiting fire
men, but other features are to be pro-
vided which will attract visitors from
all over the state.
Dickinson has never entertained any
public gathering for any important
purpose and the business men have
taken up the project with true western
energy and enthusiasm. They have
already raised purse of over $4,000
and expect to raise $1,000 more, tosbe
expended for purposes of various kinds,
and which will include inducements
designed to attract the attention of ana
benefit a number of important state
interests. -
The sum of $500 will be given as
prizes to the contesting firemen. In
addition it is intended to have a fine
exhibit of live stock, of which growing
interest Dickinson is the center and
shipping point for a large region.
;Stockmen, who for number of years
have been introd oducing and breeding,
at heavy expense, better grades of an
imais, have taken up the matter of an
exhibit this year, and the citizens Of
Diclt nson, Joining with them, expect
that this year will work the beginning
of a series sof stock and agricultural
exhibits that will result in an annual
live stock show being held there which

In the last few days the treasurer
has received about $4,000 in taxes
from the county treasurer-about $3,-
500 of which will go into the general
fund, the balance being divided among
the other funds. We have $4,000 in
outstanding bonds coming due in May
and the sinking fund will pay them.
This will leave the city with no bonded
debt and outstanding warrants on the
general fund amounting with interest
to only about $4,000.

CONDITIONS I'M CUBA.

LETTER FROM A BISMARCK BOY,
NOW IN CUBA, TELLS OF CON-
DITIONS IN THE ISLAND.
Mrs. w. B. Watson has letter from
her son Jud, who has been in Cuba for
some time, part of which is as fol-
lows:
Last Sunday I went to Mantanzas,
taking advantage of the cheap excur-
sion rate. The town is one of the
prettiest in all Cuba, and has one of the
finest harbors of the island. 1t is the
center of an important sugar district,
and is the point of expectation for the
sugar, and for importation of planters
supplies, etc. The city is kept in a
magnificent condition by the city au-
thorities, asphalt pavements, etc.,
making one of the neatest and clean
est cities you might find in the tropics.
All this due to the American admins
tration. The carnival season was at
it's height, and I spent most OF my time
there in watching the carriages of
maskers as they drove around the
plaza and throwing empty egg-shells
at the pretty girls. Talk of pretty
girls, well, they have lots OF them in
Cuba. The carnival in Havana was
fiat" being nothing more than few
''nigger dances" and not worth the
mentioning. There is one good thing
about the Cubans, they all believe in
good time and not too much work
Particularly, no work.
The country along the railroad for
the most part was wild and unbroken,
with here and there an occasional
sugar-feld. Not much idea of sugar
plantation can be gathered from the
train, as the great plantations lay
back in the valleys few miles from
the railroad, and have their own mar
row-guage' roads connecting with the
main lines. Such as seen seemed to
be in flourishing condition. I am
told this is considered to be good
year for cane. -
A great many tourists are now pass
ing through Havana, and many Am
erican faces are seen upon the streets.
In another month or so, the fever sea-
son will be on, and the town will settle
down to its normal condition Moth
ing is known here as to the probable
time for the end OF the American oc-
cupation, but if the American govern
ment listens to the wishes of the res
idents of Cuba who have little prop
erty, there will be no hurry. Only
those wAo have nothing, and who wish
to get their fingers in the treasury,
are bowling for independence. Prop
erty owners and those who have any
thing to lose do not want Cuba turned
over, for. they realize it would be moth
ing but .grab." : II. a-#rz2

TO HELP MoRANs OUT.

An effort is being made by the
Chamber of Commerce to help the
Moran Bros. secure the government
contract to build a battleship at this
port. To secure such a contract it
would mean the distribution of $780,
600 a month in the shape Of wage
labor to persons living in Seattle.
The Moran Bros. scaled their orig
inal bid down $116,000, but this
still leaves them within 100000 OF
securing the government contract,
which they are compelled to do IN
order to get the work. They do not
feel able to scale the original price
down another 100000, and viii
throw up the contract before they
will do so. The Chamber of Com
merce, ever alert to the best interests
of Seattle, has interposed and asks
those citizens of Seattle who are in
terested in Seattle, to come forward
and raise the necessary 100000 by
popular subscription, and thus bring
this gigantic amount of work to Sc
attic, which means the expenditure
Of $3,600,000. The citizens Of this
city have often contributed to less
deserving industries, and they
should not hesitate in rushing to the
rescue Of this ship building company
within their gates and subscribe the
necessary 100000, thereby bring
ing to the city millions Of dollars
worth of labor.

DE WET is CAPTURED.

The capture of Gen. DeWet, in
South Africa, who has been giving
the English soldiers such a chase
since the departure of President Dom
Paul, is considered the turning point
in the South African war. 1t will
be remembered that the turning
point in the Philippine war was,
when it was reported on reliable au-
thority that Aguinaldo had been kill
ed and was no longer at the head Of
the insurgent army. The same can
be applied to the Boer army, as it
will 60 to pieces now that its most
fearless and clever leader has been
entrapped by English strategy and
persistency. There is no doubt but
that if Gen. DeWet had had sufi-
cient number Of men and supplies,
he would have eventually so harrass-
ed and worried the English army
that it would have declared for peace
in spite of the protests Of the Secre-
tary Of Colonies in London. Just
what England will do with the South
African republics is question that
! she herself is unable to decide at
! present. Whether it will be advis-
able to reduce them to colonies or to
give them a neutrality-suspicious. gov
ernment is a question that is perplex-
ing the minds of the leading states
men of the English government. II
is very apparent that unless the
South African republics are made in
dependent governments, to some ex-
tent at least, that they will be eter-
nally in a state of warfare, an ele-
phant on England's hands, and tC
continue them as subiugated colonies
it will require a standing army
greater than kept by any other ma
ton in the world.
The Seattle Republican., 1901-01-04
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

Within the last week, the Middle
of-the-Road Pops of the Uniteo
States have held a conference at st.
Louis, Mo-, to discuss whether or not
the Populist party, as party, should
go to pieces or be absorbed into the
Democratic party under the leader
ship Of VIM. Jennings Bryan or some
other famous champion yet to rise.
1t will be remembered that the Pop
ulist party first assumed national
shape in 1892, when it met in Oma
ha, framed and issued its famous
Omaha platform" and nominated
candidates for the presidency and
vice presidency. The Omaha plat
form, as it was issued, was widely
discussed by the parties then and
since then. The teachings of that
famous platform, if followed out,
would have made angels out Of men
instead of politicians. 1t was a use
less document so far as any govern
ment is concerned, for it is hardly
possible that this or any other gov
ernment will ever reach the state Of
perfection that it recommended. 1t
made radicals out of men, and from
a political standpoint its adherents
became the most rabid political rad
icals that the country has ever seen.
The wonder of the whole matter is
that it lasted as long as it did. 1t
went to pieces in 1896, was absorbed
for the time in the Democratic party,
it gathered itself together in 1899
and broke away to some extent from
its 1895 affiliations, and again IN
1900 put forth candidates for the
presidency and vice presidency, but
as divisions surung up within the
party ranks its candidates received
but feeble support at the polls. Its
recent conference discussed and re-
discussed the points of vital issue to
the party and finally decided to con-
tinue as Middle-of-the-Roaders, and
fight on for the rights of the famous
Omaha platform.

NEW TELEPHONE SYSTEM.

Another twenty-five-year franchise
for the construction and operation Of
new telephone system in this city
has been granted by the City Coun-
ell and approved by the Mayor. The
cry for a second telephone system
among Seattleites has been heard
loud and long, as they believed a
second telephone system would bring
about such sharp competition be-
tween the companies the patrons
of telephones would get them at rea-
sonable rates, which, they believed,
they were not getting at present.
Within the past year differences
arose between the Sunset Telephone
Company and its patrons, and, as a
result, over three thousand were or
dered out and equally as many more
stood ready to follow suit had the
trouble not been amicably settled by
all parties concerned. 1t was then
thought that the Automatic Tele-
phone system, which has been grant
ed twenty-fve-year franchise by the
City Council, would soon be ready to
begin operations and thereby cause
the Sunset Telephone system to re-
duce its exorbitant rates and also
raise the salaries Of its operators,
who were receiving the poorest kind
of compensation for the best kind Of
work, but somehow or other the Au-
tomato system did not materialize,
and those holding the franchise not
taking advantage of the opportunity
given them by the city, allowed it to
lapse and become non est. 1t is
hoped that those holding the new
franchise will at once string their
lines in the city and be ready to give
good service before the present year
expires. 1t would be better for the
city to have but one telephone sys-
tenn, providing such system would
give adequate service, charge rea-
sonable rates for its machines, and
pay liberal wages to its operators,
but, where such system will do
neither Of these, then duplicate, if
not triplicate, telephone systems
should be put in operation.

IGNATIUs DONNELLY DEAD.

The world, perhaps, was startled
last Tuesday morning at the an
nouncement by the Associated Press
of the death of Ignatius Donnelly
at his home in Minneapolis, MINI.
Aside from Mr.. Donnelly's political
off-color, he can be truly said to have
been one Of the great literary
scholars Of the nineteenth century.
That he should have passed away
at the close of the century to which
he had added so much from a literary
standpoint was rather striking. Mr.
Donnelly was in his 10th year, and
though he had reached a ripe old
age, until a short time before his
death, it was generally considered
that he would live many years more
and furnish the literary world with
many more valuable contributions
for its edifcation and general bene-
fit. He has written more books
that is, readable books-than any
other writer of recent years. He
was quite figure in national polit-
ical circles, as he has more than once
been a candidate for the presidency
Of the United States, nominated by
one Of the lesser parties Of this coun-
try. Politically speaking, Mr.. Don
nelly was a fanatic, but in every 9th
er respect he was an able and fear
less American that not only believed
in right, but was ready to stand for
right at all times and on all Occa-
sions.

The Post-Intelligencer is to b

The Post-Intelligencer is to be
congratulated on its interesting
statistical number concerning Seat
tie and the State Of Washington in
general. No paper in the State or
in the Northwest, for that matter,
seems to put forth the same amount
of energy, push and money to prop
erly advertise the Northwest as does
the Post-Intelligencer. 1t not only
has done this in this particular in
stance, but it has repeatedly done so
in the past, and as a result no paper
in the Northwest is so widely known
throughout the North, East, South
and West as is the P.-I. Last Sun
days issue did not fall below the
standard of its previous issues Of the
same kind, and persons interested in
the up-building of Seattle will show
their appreciation to the medium
which is struggling to advertise the
city by sending large numbers of
copies Of last Sundays P-I. to their
friends throughout the East As a
reference, even for those persons iv-
ing in Seattle, nothing that can be
found in print can one-half COM
pete with the data that the P.-I
furnished in last Sundays issue,
which it is pleased to term its annual
review of Seattle and its surround
ings
