A law recently put into effect in Nor
way compels the young lady before
she marries to present a certificate to
the authorities showing that she can
COG, sew, knit and embroider. This
ought to insure the getting OF good
housekeeper when fellow marries in
that country, but it is an unfair ar
ransement in that nothing is required
in the man.

A great change Is taking place in the
method of constructing grain elevators,
the bins intended to hold the grain be-
ing built In circular form outside the
power house and constructed wholly
of cement. So absolutely tireproof are
these structures that the companies
building and owning them do not pre-
tend to carry any insurance on them or
their contents.

Here is another Minnesota item well
worth mention: AT the late state fair
there were on exhibition in the fruit
department 2.3G4 plates of apples, 5lo
plates of plums and 454 plates of
grapes. representing over POO varieties
of apples and 100 of plums, and all
this in a state far north. outside the
supposed fruit belt and in season
when fruit production has been very
light.
The Wealthy apple, fall fruit in the
latitude of Iowa, when grown in
northern Minnesota becomes a very
good winter apple with just little
care. illustrating the truth that the
farther north an apple is grown the
better the quality and the longer it
will keep.

There never has been a serious disturb

the chief burden of expense and neon

Fred Burton, a travelling man Of st.
Cloud, passed through the city yester-
day. stopping at the Clarendon hotel
while here. He stated that he had passed
through the territory Of the present
Indian trouble at Brown lake, several
times and that all throughout the win
ter the Reds were complaining of the
timber being cut. The Indians have. time
and time again. registered objections to
the way the dead and down law was OBJ
served, claiming that green timber was
crf. AS to the truth of the statements
made by the Indians Mr.. Burton had
little to say. his information having been
picked UP en- route on his trips through
the state He himself saw no evidences
of the cutting Of green timber. His
statements are in line with what is
known locally Two or three times dur
ing the past winter Indians called on the
chief executive OF the state and told
him their trouble. The last time was only
five or six weeks ago and the governor
was then asked to present the full par
ticulars Of the difficulties before the de-
partment of the interior which he prom
ised to do, and did.
Alexander McDougal, the Duluth Pan
American commissioner, was registered
at the Merchants last night He said
that the mining exhibit for the exposi-
ton at Buffalo would be shipped from
Duluth Saturday 1t would have been
shipped sooner If it had not been for the
ice blockade in the lower lakes. Ass0-
ciated Press reports are to the effect
that the ice has now broken up. Mr..
McDougall says that the mining exhibit
will be one of the most interesting from
this state and that it will be an eye-open,
er, in some respects, to the Eastern
states.
The hotels of ST. Paul expect to be able
to accommodate all visitors to the city
during the time of the Woodmens con-
vcntion. The proprietors of the leading
hosteiries were seen anent the matter
last night and they were confident that
everything will come off without a hitch.
All of the hotels, however. will make
special preparations for the different con-
ventions to be held here.

BRIGHT FOR CUBA.

The latest report from Havana as to
the attitude of the special commission
which has recently visited Washington
is decidedly hopeful. That body evident
ly has learned much during its trip. 1t
certainly has learned enough to under
stand and, doubtless, to have conveyed
the understanding to the convention,
that the American people will not stand
any further humbug as to the require
ments of the Plat amendment.
There has been a good deal of charity
and forbearance shown by this govern
ment toward the hotheaded and
altogether foolish attitude taken by the
majority of that constitutional conven-
ton. People and officials alike have
shown a disposition to pass over the
foolish insults which have come from
individual Cuban politicians. These are
alone the persons, together with the writ
ers in the Havana press, to whom any
one can look for the expression Of cuban
sentiment. The Cuban people, no matter
how gratefully and kindly they may look
upon this nation, have no other means
of conveying their sentiments; and hence
the American people have held them TO
the full responsibility for the sentiments
which have found expression through
the Havana press, through the constitu-
tional convention and through Individual
members OF that convention.
1t is gratifying that the prevailing sit
people would be glad to see a strong
and responsible government grow up in
Cuba, we'll administered and sufficient for
the protection of the country against
The Cuban convention has shown dis
position to discard the aid of the United
States in protecting the island from for
eign aggression. That would not mat
ter. were 1t not for the fact that the
maintenance Of the national autonomy
of Cuba will be necessary in the future
to our own protection. Backed by the
friendship and good will of this coun-
try, with acceptable treaties, political
and commercial, in existence between
this nation and the young republic. with
the finances Of the country allowed to
develop through restored industry to a
point adequate to the maintenance of the
republic, and with the wiser and more
conservative of the leaders of public
opinion in control Of the new government,
there can be no reason whatever why
Cuba should not take her place among
the nations, if not as great, as least
as prosperous, peaceful and well pro-
tected people.
Let the Cubans decide what they may
in the future about annexation. They
will never with the consent Of the Unit d
States be launched into national exist
ence without at least fair guarantees
that their nationhood will cont nue.. and
that they cannot be made the medium
of bringing harm to the people who lib
Grated them from Spain.

POLITICS OF THE STATE,
-. 80 z .


The optimism displayed by Frank M.
Eddy, representative from the Seventh
district or Minnesota, is not shared by
the people who make up the southern
part Of his district as composed by the
reapportionment. Mr. Eddy appreciates
the fact that he will have two promi-
Hent members Of his party to contend
with In running for the nomination next
year, but does not allow this to dampen
his ardor in the least He processes
falth In the operation Of the primary
election law in its relation to his own
case, and says that he considers his new
district an ideal one.
The new Seventh district is composed
OF seven counties of the old Seventh and
seven from the old Second. Those coun-
ties which were formerly in the Seventh
are the ones. according to the argument
OF Republicans who reside in the SOUTH
ern part OF the new district, where Eddy
round his former strength. Capt. c. c.
w nitney believes that facts will sustain
TINS position These counties having
oeen cut off, 1t Is argued that Eddy g
bulk of strength has left him and that
he will have now the seven counties of
ms old district, which have always been
MS weakest, and seven of the old Sec
ond, where he Is a stranger, to depend
on Tor denomination. Some plausible
arguments are advanced to show that
his defeat in the primary election is a
strong probability
Speaker Bowling, who resides in the
new Seventh district and who was born
and reared in that portion in which
Eddy, it is held, will be the weakest. is
the avowed candidate Of his people. HIS
friends declare that Mr.. Eddy cannot
possibly hope to win down in Dowling's
country and that the speaker will divide
the other seven counties more than
evenly with Eddy, reserving the larger
portion for himself. Capt Whitney
maintains that Dowling's claim on the
Republican nomination is almost irresist-
ible
But there is another man to be taken
into consideration. State Senator Ed
Young, who lives between Bowling and
Eddy, at Appleton. Swift county, has a
very strong desire to get to congress,
and thus far must be reckoned with as a
candidate. If Young remains in the race
and the field is entered by Bowling,
Eddy and himself, the situation will re
more complex of course than if the fight
lay simply between Bowling and Eddy,
but friends of the speaker still MAIN
tain that he would have g "cinch" on
the nomination and that Young would

The ST. Paul baseball team is bringing
lover Of the national game. It's per-
formances since It's first appearance On
the diamond have been-welI, they have
been decidedly weak. stating the case
mildly.
The proprietorship and management of
the St Paul team know better, no doubt,
than any number of persons can tell them
how to improve that team. 1t needs i'm
provement When the process of i'm
provement is inaugurated 1t will doubtless
suggest itself as desirable that there
should be at least one assistant pitcher.
Mr.. McGill is a familiar character to the
ST. Paul baseball fan. His good qualities,
as well as his other ones, are fairly
known here. No one ever believed,
until the management of the team
showed their possession Of such faith,
that he was of such splendid attainments
in his profession that he could go on in
definitely winning victories for the team
