FERGUS FALLS

The sentiment among leading republicans
seems to be almost unanimous for reciprocity
with Cuba. In fact, 1t is difhcultsto find
man, republican democrat, who does not
irdorse the presidents position.
j. T. Johnson-There may be two sides to
the question, but if so. I have been unable
to discover them. ] ann strongly In favor
OF reciprocity.
E. q. Corliss-Of course in favor Of
reciprocity with Cuba 1 was in favor of free
trade with Porto Rico, and this is almost a
parallel case. heartily indorse the prest-
dents position.
c. D. Wright-You can place me in the
reciprocity class every time. ! believe in
the principle and believe We could stand
great deal more of it. Yes, I'm most en-
phatically in favor Of Cuban reciprocity.
C. A. Daley-I'm in favor OF a reduction
in duties 1t seems to me the president Is
taking the right stand. f.
J. W. Todd-I'm a reciprocity cdvocate. BY
all means take off the duties. -..- ~
Several others stated that they were not
sufficiently posted to make definite state
ments, but they believed the presidents po-
sition correct. @--.

LUvERNE
The opinion Of the leading republicans in
this section Is that President Roosevelt is
clearly and unquestionably in the right in his
fight for. Cuban reciprocity. There is scarcely
an exception to this feeling. There Is a
clear and well defined unaninity in opinion
that the United States is bound by every
moral sense of duty to grant Cuba reciprocity,
and that the fact that to SO do may injure a
certain few Of our home industries should
not and must not enter into the consideration
In our discharge of our bounden obligations.
The unanimity Of all republicans In this
section in supporting the president Is unques-
tonable and points clearly to this fact: That
the insurgents in congress are not acting in
accord with the evident wishes of their con
stituents.
Senator II. J. Miller-In my Judgment Presi-
dent Roosevelt is in the right in his fight for
Cuban reciprocity We are in duty bound to
give Cuba all the material aid in our power.
In doing this we are but fulfilling our pledges.
In granting Cuba reciprocity it may be that
some slight injury may be done to some OF
our home industries. Possibly among these
may be the beet sugar industry; but this
should not deter us from doing our duty. The
granting of reciprocity to Cuba Is an excep
! tiona1 case; 1t stands clearly by itself; and,
as such, must be dealt with on broader
plane than the question of reciprocity has ever

We think they ought to win and we purpose
to stand by them to the last 1t would be
serious blunder for the state to go back on

L. NJ. Wilcuts said: Il indorse most en-
phatically the position of Judge Morris. I do
not think the insurgents are the obstruction
lists in reciprocity so much as those who, for
various causes seem determined that the

Senator G. P. Reeves said: without all the
facts before me and intelligent study of the
same I do not feel competent to criticize
either side. From ny meagre knowledge Of
this Cuban question, however, have notion
that the cane sugar trust is vitality interested
in reducing the duty on Cuban sugar. They
have invested extensively In Cuban sugar
plantations and will profit by reciprocity
This appears to be the view Of the insur-
gents This pretty fairly represents senti-
ment here. In general the people Of this
county will indorse the insurgents, trusting
more to the judgment of Senator Nelson and
Congressman Eddy than to their own notions
Of the question" .

coLoRED MINISTERS PROTEST
Do Not Want Separate Entertain ments for G. A. R. Members.

Washington Special to Philadelphia Led
 ger.
 A protest has been made by the patrons of colored churches of this city against any discrimination being made to the prejudice of colored men of the Grand Army of the Republic who may partici- pate in the annual eIfcampment of that organization, to be held here in October It is alleged that the local committee in charge of the preparations for the re- ception and entertainment of the veter- ans proposes to make special arrange ment for the entertainment of the colored men of the rGand Army, thus separating 2 them from the main body of the organ ization. The protest of the clergymen has been presented to the proper author ities as follows
 We. the undersigned pastors of Wash inKton. n. C.. learning through the pub lie press that it Is the intention of the G. A. R. Encampment to specialize the colored veteran at the coming encamp- ment, do earnestly protest against any arrangement that indicates an invidious distinction of treatment between old sol diers simply on account of color. Unless 1t is the policy of the managers to have special subcommittee and special con- sideration for every other branch of our common humanity let there be none for the bstttle-scarred. always loyal black sol dier.

They ad- mire our short skirt and will eventually adopt it; but you see, they don't like to take suggestions from American women. I saw scenes in London that fairly made my heart ache. If you could have seen those poor women struggling along the street, their little hands almost broken with holding up long, heavy skirt! No wonder the poor creatures have drawn faces No they do not think the short skirt improper. They are simply waiting for some leader of fashion to set the pace then they will follow, no doubt. In that respect. 1 am sorry to say. they resemble our women who so slavishly follow the European lead"

auA1NTEsT VILLAGE IN LAND.
A Quaint German Town in Ohio Where English is Never Spoken.

There is one village in the United States where no modern improvement has ever penetrated where not the faint est echo of the rush and overwork cf modern life has ever sounded. where American newspapers are not read nor the English language spoken.
 This is the little German village of Glandorf in Putnam County, O., where 500 frugal and industrious inha bitants have lived for years in contented and idylic simplicity. .-.-.
 in the building of the town, as In ev
 ervthing else about it, the people have reid very closely to the customs of Ger msny, from where its founders came.
 There is but one street. and that ex- tends for over mile. north and south. Quaint, durable and homeike are the houses scattered along either side. in- terspersed here and there by the stores. All the residences have spacious and we'll kept dooryards.
 Rack and away from this principal street-yet so near that the laborers can be seen and heard at their work m the felds-stretch the thrifty farms ot the German country folk. It is not an un- common sight to see women ana g'rls the whole population shows that rugged health so characteristic of the race.
 Among themselves the people converse almost entirely in the German language and indeed there are great many Tn tha community who can speak no other. They are generous and clever, ana the stranger who goes among them always finds a hospitable welcome. and IS nm pressed with their simple kindness. No where can he found a more devoutly re- igious people. They are of the Roman Catholic faith. and are possessed or one of the finest churches in Northwestern Ohio. .,. . .A, means of making Glandorf famous. be- cause of its size and the beauty of its architecture. Although most of the work @ otons for the foundation and the hauling of ofo',r material e was given gratis by tho members of the parish, the cost outside of this was over $5o,OOo.
