i sioner Jones in Lease.
Bismarck, N. D., May 2S.-Testi-
mony has been taken at Standing
Rock during the past week from the
Indians and others interested with re-
gard to the lease of Indian lands. G..
E. Lennon, of Spearfish, S. D., one of
the men interested in the lease, has
been on the ground part of the time.
The investigation is being made by
DR.. G. B. Grinnell, a personal friend
of President Roosevelt, who was sent
to find put what was the sentiment
Of the Indians on the subject. In the
meantime, w. v. Wade, Of Wade, Nor
ton county, has gone to Washington
to appear before the senate sub-com-
mittee and give testimony regarding
the letter he wrote to Senator Jones,
alleging that Indian Commissioner
Jones was interested in the Lennon
lease. 1t is not probable that Wade
will be able to give any facts to sub
stantiate his charges against Commits
sioner Jones. The nearest approach
to anything definite that has been un-
earthed in this case is that it was
supposed that the Milwaukee road was
interested in this lease, and it was
further supposed that Jones was in
terested in the Milwaukee road, and
the entire charges seem to have pro-
crossed largely through supositions.

member Of this fine company is thor.
oughly familiar with the military drills
of every nation and could fall into the
ranks and fill all the requirements Of a
well drilled and disciplined soldier of

When the company was stationed ut

Since then the company has taken up
the drills of other nations. both ancient
and modern. and has become marvel
ously expert. All the various drills OF
the company r held in the uniforms
Of the soldiers Of the country which the
troops are supposed to represent. and to
make these costumes historically o
rect the company has expended Owe
$1,000. Lieutenant G. .Iosten is the
originator Of the scheme. and be de

manner In which he has disciplined his

Expresses Gratitude for Aid Of the
United States.
Havana, May 2s.-President Palma's
message unpublished here tonight and
will be delivered to the Cuban senate
tomorrow.
The message opens by giving thanks
to- the Almighty for His assistance in
carrying out the work Of obtaining
Cuban independence, and asks divine
aid in the establishment OF a firm and
stable government.
Never did people fight with more
perseverance," says the message, ''and
sacrifice more for liberty than have
the Cubans. No people, therefore,
are more entitled to see their just
efforts crowned with To-
gether with our W heroism is the
attitude of the great people who were
impelled by their own love of liberty
to put themselves on our side in our
tenacious fight for the independence
of the country. Their motive was one
Of generous sentiment pure and dis
interested in origin. Impelled by this
sentiment, the powerful republic of
the north recognizes, through it's il
l%ustrious president, the republic of
Cuba. The promise formally made
has been carried out. In this moment,
when we feel our right as an indie
pendent nation, it is impossible to- sup
press our gratitude to the United
States. To recognize this debt of
gratitude to a great nation is an act
which exalts and which makes us
worthy of the consideration and re-
spect Of the other nations of the
world.
while the question of reciprocity
is still pending" the message goes on,
lit is impossible to state now what
should be adopted to meet
the pending crisis. This crisis is due
to the ruinlous price of sugar caused
by the excessive production of beet
sugar in Europe. An immediate rem
edy would be the reduction of the
tariff on sugar, to obtain
which the executive will at once de-
vote his efforts and will negotiate a
treaty in order to obtain benefits for
the Cuban sugar producers"
President Palma declares it is the
purpose of the government to devote
its attention to education and espec-
tally to primary schools. He says the
of Intervention deserves
great credit for the educational sys-
TEN it established, but that there is
need for still more schools, as the
future of the republic depends upon
