vest's demands are reasonable and in accord
ance with the general demands and expecta-
tons OF the people. expect to see substan-
tlal relief granted to Cuba by the present
congress.
o. w. shaw--Great parties move like great
armies, deliberate and sure. The country is
pledged for the relief of Cuba, having accept
ed the assurances given by both Presidents
Mckinley and Roosevelt regarding this There
Is no doubt in my mind that some compromise
position will be honorably found and the Gu
bans will be relieved. The question of meth
cd Is Of less Importance to me.
C. L. West-While think the general SEN
timent here is in sympathy with President
Roosevelt on the Cuban reciprocity matter,
there is no disposition, to precipitate fight.
Our congressman will concede all that is nee
essary in order to 90 justice to Cuba and at
the same time keep in touch with the presi-
dent. Is%sy 50 SO.
S. sweningsen-our Minnesota congressman,
including both senator's, are agreed in their
position on the Cuban tariff question and
they will keep together. They know what
they are about. should hate to see any Sc
rious conflict, but they will hang to their
present position and await consequences.
h. e. Shepherd-There is merit on both
sides of the Cuban tariff problem. The presi-
dent speaks in unmistakable terms of what
L
matter adjusted amicably without prejudice
to either the congressman on the one side or
the president on the other
G.. seebach-I admire President Roosevelt
for the stand he has taken on the antfmerger,
antitrust question, and no one doubts that on
the Cuban matter lhe is sincere and honest.
I have a good deal Of confidence in the wis
dom of our congressman to get at the right
of the matter. -. 49,
H. O.. Basford-This Cuban matter will
come out all right. The Republican party
will fix it up satisfactorily among themselves
without any serious break It is merely diff
ference of opinion as to methods.
+. p. McBride-Our congressman are away
from the people and do not realize how deeply
the masses feel on this Cuban relief ques-
ton. Sound them and you will find the COM
mon people In full accord with President
Roosevelt In his present position with refer
ence to Cuban reciprocity.

G. H. Wyman-I think the presidents stand
is with the people and commend the action
taken by him. Cuban interests should be
looked after by the United States, and what
ever discrepancies creep in with Cuba reci-
procity can be attended to later on
Henry Lee, Member of Last Legislature
If reciprocity Is of any use anywhere it is
certainly good in Cuba. take my stand
with our president on this matter.
w. y. Annon-I think the keynote of the
situation was expressed in McKin1eys speech
at Buffalo. I am always with the Minnesota
delegation in congress, but can't take the
same views as the insurgents in this matter.
Mayor N. H. Hanson-I heartily agree with
the president. Think he has taken the right
stand. #,.~
c. I. Cook-The stand taken by the presi-
dent is right. We have made promises to
Cuba which we ought to fulfil.
Thomas Sharkey, Alderman-The United
States should have absolute free trade with
Cuba.
r. w. Akin, Banker-Make no different
tariff rate to Cuba than we would to any
other country. The same with Porto Rico,
Hawaiian islands, etc.
T. J. Albeit think we should be very
liberal with Cuba in the matter Of reciprocity.
First, because we are under obligations to
them, and In the second place, because of
their sugar industry. =
: G. H. Goodrich, ex-Mayor-Am in favor of
a reduction in tariff in this instance. The
reduction on sugar favors Cuba, and also
consumers in the United States think the
presidents position is exactly right.

president in this as we'll as any other ques-
ton. p * = ~

COUNSELMAN
IN THE TOLLS

Chicago, Aug. 19.-John Carney, a
saloon keeper at Harvey, I'LL, Informed
the police last night that Bartholin
and Counselman had a long confer
ence in his saloon on the night of Au-
gust H. Carney is positive it was
Bartholin who met Counselman.
Edward w. Counselman, the init
mate friend of William J. Bartholin
who was held for possible knowledge
of the Bartholin-Mitchell crimes, was
taken before Justice Quin yesterday
and held for ten days in bonds Of $1G,
900, charged with being accessory
after the fact in the murders OF Minnie
Mitchell and Mrs. Anne Bartholin
Counselman admitted he had met Bar
tholin and that Bartholin said he was
in trouble over Minnie Mitchell
1t is the purpose Of the police to pu1
Counselman through the sweating or
deal, and they say they expect valu
able results. Counselman's wife
begged him repeatedly to tell the pc
lice all he knew, but so far Counsel
man has been obdurate. A note from
Bartholin to Counselman asking fol-
money and saying that the writer was
in trouble, is held by the police. II
was this note which Counselman haC
tried to secure from his wife by chok
ing her, that led to his arrest.
