Fine weather. The wind blows

frost has so far appeared and that
left it's tracks only in low places.
DR.. Nick Wiger left Tuesday on

meet T. H.. Daniels at St. Paul and
from there the two would go to the
coast together. Mr.. Daniels was

E. S. Minor, who was defeated
for denomination as representative
TO Congress from the 9th district on
the Republican ticket by Gustav
Kuestermann, may run for the posi-
ton as candidate on the National
Republican ticket, as he received
three votes on that ticket-the high
est number for the office.
CDR. Till'' of Somerset annonnc-
ed some time ago that he was about
to go to his old home in Austria for
a three months rest, but the Still
water Messenger says he is still do
ing business at the old stand, and
on one day last week one hundred
inva1ids were at his place all anx-
ious for the help this strange man
is supposed to give.
1t appears that the primary cleo
ton law does not shut out indie
pendent candidates and G. A. Ul-
vim of Hartland takes advantage of
this fact by announcing himself an
independent candidate for the office
of County Treasurer. We under
stand that Mr.. Ulvin is strongly en-
dorsed by his neighbors as gen
tleman of sterling integrity, and
should he be-. fortunate enough
to win out would prove competent
official.
Cuba, geographically, and by
right of eminent domain, belongs to
the United States. 1t has been the
question of a century how the is
land could legitimately, definitely
and permanently be attached to the
Great Republic. When Spain re-
linquished her sovereignty from the
necessity of compulsion as the re-
suit of the war in 1898, this govern
ment should have retained it, but
the Democrats in Congress forced a
resolution to the effect that Cuba
should be independents foolish
scheme, suggested by jealousy OF
the Mckinley administration. 1t
was foregone conclusion that in
dependence would be a failure and
the inevitable would occur-as it
has. The American flag waves over
Cuba. 1t may never be hauled
down. Democratic papers say we
don't want Cuba's brats. But we
want Cuba. 1t. will be improved.
