''sop'' has done it's work. But is there
a newspaper or an individual in the
northwest who believes that if Mr..
Hill reduces the grain rate that it will
ever be raised?
The plain, simple fact is the merger
is long step forward in railroad man.
agement. It permits of rate reduc-
tions which the old competitive policy
that Governor Van SAINT is proclaim
ing would positively prevent. There
is no sop" in the proposed grain rate
reduction. It is instead hard, cold
fact that the unreasonable critics of
Mr.. Hill will have to put in their pipe
and smoke, because, once made, the
cut is here to stay.
Mr.. Hill has stood quietly by
through all the years and worked out
the great plan that the merger COM
pletes. He has reduced freight rates
steadily and without orders from rail-
road commissioners. He has made it
possible for people to travel every year
between St. Paul and Minneapolis and
Puget Sound for close to one cent a
mile, without orders from railroad
commissioners. He has carried a
million people into the west and SET
tied them on lands where they are a
support to the great business interests
of Minneapolis and St. Paul. And for
all this great work he has been stead
lily pictured to the people by narrow,
unreasoning press as one who was de-
liberately seeking for private gain the
downfall of the great states through
which his roads run.
This false reasoning has about run
its course. Not much longer can mar
row interpretations control public SEN
timent. The benefits of a merger are
going to be felt by the people, and Mr..
Hill is going to close his career ap-
preciated and understood. It has been
his purpose always to build up, not to
tear down. If he does not act in ad-
vocacy of such a policy from phil
anthropic motives, he does from mo-
tives of plain common sense.
Let Mr.. Hill be taken at his word
once. He says he proposes to carry
freight cheaper in the northwest than
it is, or can be, carried anywhere else
in the United States. That doesn't
sound much like an advance in rates.
Cannot the critics of the merger see
that no policy could be enforced on the
old system of 5000 miles, that would
bring the result that comes from en-
forcing policy for 10000 miles?
The Commercial West has no desire
to make this question a hobby. 1t
feels so strongly, however, the impor-
lance OF the merger to the best inter-
ests of all that it is impelled to note
the sure change of sentiment that has
already taken shape among the peo-
pie in it's favor.-The Commercial

Country Life.

Americans have developed a craze
for country homes. You see them on
every side, the homes of rich men
and the homes of poor men, but all
unique in design and comfortable for
summer use. Like golf the craze is an
encouraging sight as it shows Ameri-
cans have strong liking for a healthy
out OF door life, despite their tendency
toward centering in large, unhealthy
cities. These same people will be
greatly pleased with golden grain belt
beer for it brings health and freshness
to those who use it regularly. Every
glass contains the strength of bread
and meat in liquid form. Order of

A Peep at Germany.

A trip up through Germany and to
the border land of Bogus Brook last
Sunday convinced us that the farmers
up through that section have passed
through seed time and harvest in
splendid shape. Most of the grain has
been cut and freshly-cut fields dotted
thickly with shocks of grain form a
promising picture of plenty and sue
cess. But Germany farmers are not
for grain alone, and their fields show a
great diversifcation of crops, a thing
that makes farming sure thing. Po-
tato fields are numerous and the dead
tops reveal quite good many acres of
earlies yet undug. With spuds at pres
ent prices any old time will do for dig
ging. But the fields are not all planted
to potatoes, either. Here is patch of
onions, another of cabbage, and here
and there are the autumn-tinted Stub
bic fields and the immense stacks of
grain ready for the thresher. A clover
patch now and then shows dollars and
cents for the farmer, and even sugar
beets are to be seen here and there. A
number of acres of this crop we're
raised up in this section last year and
some of the farmers are trying the crop
again. Big red barns are not uncom-
mon sights and go hand in hand with
the ''little red school house." There
are many old farms in this section, and
then, too, there are some quite new
farms where the farmer has been out
OF the woods but five or six years and
even less. We noticed on what ap-
peared to be new farm right up to
the heavy timber splendid field of
oats, clean and bright looking and
plump and heavy, and near by fine
field of corn, beside which some other
fields of corn in that section looked
very small. A peep at the ground
from which the large heavy stalks had
grown up told the story. The soil
showed that it had been tickled quite a.
little and this tickling business pays
several hundred per cent.

FACTS ABOUT CUBA.

Cuba contained at the time of the break
ing out of the last revolution 100000 farms,
ranches and plantations, valued at 5000, ,OOO,-
900.
No less than FIVE minor revolts occurred
in Cuba between 1878 the date of closing the
ten years war; and 1894 when the last
war began.
From 1927 to 1864 Cuba contributed direct
ly to the Spanish treasury the sum of $780,
900, 600 Since 1867 the island has contrib
uted but little directly to the Madrid treas
ury, but indirectly much of the entire rev
enue OF the island has reached Spain.
From the eastern end of Cuba to Hayti is
"a miles, and to Jamaica 50 miles; from the
northern shore on the western end it is SO
miles to Florida, and from Cape San An
tonic the western extremity OF the island,
to Nucatan Is 1870 miles
Cuba is nearly seven times as long as Long
Island. 1t stretches from a point about even
with New York City on the east to Cincin-
natl on the west, a distance of $50 miles. In
width it is nowhere greater than 100 miles,
while at places it is as narrow as 20 miles.
There are 300 small islands and keys ad
jacent to and belonging to Cuba, and these,
with the main island comprise an area OF
about $4,000 square miles.
Cuba had at the close of the war with
Spain about 1000 miles of railway divided
into a number of small lines. Since the
evacuation of the island by Spain Sir Will
liam Van Van Horne, the builder OF the Can
dian Pacific railway, has been building
new trunk line that, when completed, will
traverse the island from one end to the
other, and, with its various branches, will
comprise more than another thousand miles
Of railway line The main line OF this road
from Santiago to Nipe, in Santa Clara prov
ince, is now nearing completion, and will be
opened to traffic in the early summer, and
the remainder of the system will be pushed
to completion as rapidly as possible. The
older lines of railway are practically all in
the western portion of the island, and sew
eral of them center at Havana, or connect
with Havana

army, which increased rapidly until it had
reached the numbers of $4,000 men, but the
ability of Spain to furnish war materials
and fresh troops was greater than that of
the insurgents, and the rank and file OF the
Cuban army began finally to tire OF the
struggle From 1873 until February, 1878, the
war dragged along in ! desultory way, and
finally ended with the peace OF San Antonio
which guaranteed pardon to all who had
taken part in the conflict, and representa-
tion for Cuba in the Spanish cortes.
1t was during this war, in 1873, that there
occurred the incident of the steamer Nir-
ginius which came so near resulting in war
between Spain and the United States, and
which did result in some pointed CORE
spondence between officials OF the two coun-
tries, and the execution as pirates at San
tiago OF 53 persons.
The incidents of the last revolution that
started in 1894 and led to American inter
vention for the pacihcation and Liberation
of the island are too well known to need
any recounting here. The leaders who
focked to the Cuban standard were men
who had fought for Cuban freedom from
lS6S-7S. Jose Marti started from New York
in February 1895, Gomez, Antonio and Jose
Maceo, Crombet, Cebreco, Borrero, Angel
Guerra and score OF others gathered again
on Cuban soil from different points to again
begin the fight for Cuban freedom. In time
Garcia, Robi, Rivera and others joined

AMERICAS FIGHT FOR CUBA.
the sword But with the scrub
bling Brush as Well.

So fresh in the minds of the American
people are the events of the historic summer
of 1898 that they really need no recalling at
this time when the complete fruition of the
objects of the struggle between the United
States and Spain are now to be realized in
the establishment of that Independent gov
ernment in Cuba which this government
guaranteed when it declared the welding of
the sword for the islands independence to
be a part OF our duty.
The destruction of our good ship Maine;
the declarations and appropriations voted
by congress; the mobizing of armies and
fleets; the victory of Admiral Dewey at Ma
Mia; the dispatch of troops to Santiago; our
naval victory off that harbor; the fall of the
city; the capture OF Porto Rico, and Spain
cry for peace at almost any price, all these
incidents need but mention to recall them
to the minds of the people of this country.
History was never made more rapidly than
it was made during that summer, and it was
history of which the country and the world
may well be proud in after years.
With the sword we drove Spain out of
Cuba, our soldiers and sailors reaped won
