DEMONSTRATION FOR
Crew OF REPUBLIC
Captain Sealby and His. Men
Arrive al New York.

New York, Jan. ~. Captain Sealby
end his officers and most of the crew
of the wrecked steamer Republic were
given a remarkable demonstration
when they landed at the pier of the
White Star line from the revenue cut
ter Manhattan, which transferred
them from the revenue cutter Seneca.
A great throng Of officers and seamen
of the steamships of the White Star
line in dock, together with three or
four hundred spectators, were on the
pier when Captain Sealby and his
shipwrecked crew stepped down the
gangplank. Officers and seamen alike
made a rush for Captain Sealby and,
lifting him to their shoulders, carried
him the whole length of the pier to
the street, while the crowd yelled it.
self hoarse and stewards on the
steamships blew trumpets. Behind
the captain the crowd carried aloft
the brave Binns, the wireless tele-
graph operator. Captain Sealby was
carried from the street to the offices
of the steamship company on the sec
ond floor of the pier, where only on
his earnest protest would the crowd
cease its demonstration.
Few marine stories In recent years
of marvellous escapes from the sea
equal in dramatic intensity the nara
tive that Captain Sealby told of the
escape of Second Officer Williams and
himself from the Republic.
Captain Sealby praised in unmeas.

MANY IMPORTANT CASES

GirtNear Laporte, 'Jugged"
for Ten Years.

Judge B. F. Wright arrived in the

Several important cases were tried
at the Rapids" among which was
the case of Josepha M. Steal, as adj
ministratrix of the estate of James
M. Steal, against the Red River
Lumber company.
Mr.. Steal was a conductor on a
logging train owned by the defend
ant and was killed Dec. 6, 1907.
After a trial lasting over a week,
the jury brought in a verdict for the
plaintiff in the sum of $4,000.
Another matter which occupied
considerable time of the court were
the cases of Henry Kanz and Peter
Kanz against the J. Neils Lumber
company. The plaintiffs are father
and son, the father suing for the
loss of the services of his son while
the latter was a minor, and the son
for damages sustained on account
of an accident. After hearing the
evidence on the part of the plaintiff,
the case was dismissed.
William Conovers of Laporte was
| given a ten year sentence to the state
prison, he having been adjudged
guilty of indecent assault committed
near Laporte last summer.
E. Zimmerman, a transient, was
given a sentence of one year for
setting fire to Great Northern box

whole industry. If, I can do any
thing further in the matter of aiding
you, I shall be very glad to do so.
Yours respectively,
e. Z. Sandsten,
Horticulturist.
1T will be noticed in the above
letter that Mr.. Sandsten thinks it
important that the farmer should
start right. Recognizing the import
ance of this, the assistance of the
state has been solicited, and it is
hoped that the present legislature
will do something in this import
ant matter.
AS to the value per acre of
tobacco grown, nothing definite can
be said at this writing, as the crop
has not been sold yet. The mana
ger of the American Tobacco Com.
pany of Madison, Wis, intends to
come to Clear Lake in the near
future. He intends to buy the
tobacco, and look, over the condi-
tons there, with the intention of
locating a branch house there and
raising some tobacco under his own
superintendent.
Farmers contemplating growing
tobacco should not obtain seed of a
tobacco variety which is not of a
cigar type, or not used to the north
ern climate. Seed obtained from
another climate is apt to deteriorate
in type, which was even experienced
in seed obtained from Wisconsin.
Mr.. Heibel can furnish some seed
which was grown by himself on his
farm. He is also glad to give any
information desired, so far as he is
able to give through the experience
he has had in this line.
One man can take care of about
ten acres of tobacco. He will need
some help while transplantlng and
harvesting, but he has enough time
to perform work outside of tending
for the tobacco, so that it amounts
to the help he will require.
Considering that the Wisconsin
farmers produce sometimes $500
worth of tobacco from one acre, and
that the tobacco land is worth from
500 to $500 an acre in that state,
this subject is worth the considera-
ton of the Minnesota farmer"
From Mr.. Welch's statement, it is
believed that, with proper procedure
on the part of the farmers of north
central Minnesota, this section
would prove to be a community
where tobacco-raising could be made
paying industry.

upon affairs in the canal zone in a
startling speech in support of his
resolution providing for an investiga-
ton by congress of the Panama canal
purchase. "In their efforts in this
direction" he continued, tthey have
had so far the complete cooperation
and active assistance Of the present
administration and Of the next presi-
dent Of the United States
Condemns Pending Libel Suits.
Referring to the governments libel
suit against the New York World and
the grand jury Investigations now in
progress il this city and in New York
Mr.. Rainey said:
If we are to carry this project
through to a successful conclusion we
must avoid graft. 1t is not the part
of wise craftsmanship to dispose OF
resolutions asking for an investiga-
ton of any phase of the canal ques-
ton with the sweeping and absolutely
unsupported official declaration that
there is nothing to investigate. It is
not the part of sound craftsmanship
and true patriotism to attempt to re-
vive the obsolete common law rem
edies of 200 years ago and to employ
the tremendous agencies of the gov;
eminent in attempting to crush news
papers which have had the courage to
call attention to a questionable trans
action in connection with the canal"
He submitted for the record papers
and documents in support of many of
the allegations contained in the
speech.
Mr.. Rainey was particularly bitter
In his denunciation of Mr.. Cromwell,
general counsel for the new French
Panama Canal company and counsel
and director of the Panama railroad,
which is owned by the United States
government. He charged that through
the manipulation of Mr.. Cromwell the
French Canal company was permitted
to steal from the United States gov
ernment three or four million dol
lars" and that after he chad become
an officer in fact of the United States
he became "a party to; an attempt to
collect from the United States fraud
ulent claim on the part of the canal
company of $2,2O0,000."

He also was unsparing in his at

said, represented "as no other Span

without Obaldia,' he stated,
"Cromwell's career would have been
impossible. Without Cromwell Obal-
dia would have been impossible .
Against President-Elect Taft, now en-
route to the canal zone, Mr.. Rainey
directed the accusation that. on the
occasion Of his last trip to Panama in
May "he did nothing on the isthmus
except to openly push the candidacy
of Obaldia for the presidency
Reference to President Roosevelt's
recent attack on Senator Tillman was
made by Mr.. Rainey in asserting that
Senator Lodge of Massachusetts, was
responsible for the expenditure on
Jan. 1 last of over 100000 for the
purchase of the steamships Shawmut
and fremont for the Panama Railroad
company, which the canal commission
did not want and did not need, but
which were bought because "the con

however, claim part Of Roumelia
