A vigorous protest is being made against our govern ment carrying out this contract and sufficient influence should be brought to bear as to bring about an annullment of the contract. Eustis asks for an ecconomica campaign. He may be able to find some one willing to devote their time and pay their own expenses to carry on his campaign,but there will be few of them that are so eager. We notice from exchanges that candidates for county' offices are making their announcements. The Advance is prepared to make, any and all announcements at the regular rate, so ask for what you want that the people may know that you area candidate. There are doubtless striking ex ceptions, but, unless we read the nows from Cuba wrong, the insurg ents as a whole area poor lot,eith er for fighting or working,and the only reason that Spain had not whipped them off the island long ago was that the Spanish officers found it more profitable not to whip them. .The floor of the turrets of one of-the Spanish Cruisers destroyed was found strewn with brandy -bottles. It is reported that rum was issued to all the crew to in flame their courage. The courage on one side was that of alcohol and frenzy on the other that of intelligence and determination. The Demonstration is complete.— Chicago Advance. That 1898 is to be a republican year is admitted on «11 sides, and why' shouldn't it be? Has not the country prospered, under the present Republican government and has not the Republican party in Minnesota this year placed be fore the voters of the state a tick et that cannot be assailed fro in any point? What. more can the voters ask? In prosperity it would be the height of folly to throw over the Republican party and Re publican principles and place the affairs of our state in the hands of a lot of chronic offise-seekers, who are Populists, Fusionists, Demo crats—anything^. to cttrry their point, and whose principles are changed every time they can gain .• a point by doing so. The Repub lican ticket this fall will be sup ported by many heretofore Popu lists because they are tired of be cause they are tired of being led around and used as tools lo feather the nests of someone §lse, and be cause the ticket headed by Mayor Eustis represents those principles which stand for good government and which has made our nation the greatest on the face of the globe.—Pipestone Star. Mr. Eustis is a very able man, clean flnid upright, possessing the confidence of jthe people, and re garded everywhere as a high minded, public-spirited progress ive gentleman, who will be an or nament to the office and a safe custodian of the material interests of Minnesota. The ^balance of the ticket simply couldtf t. be better, and fully indicates the purpose of the party to make this campaign so aggressive that at its close populism and fusion will be heard of no more forever in Minnesota. '—Ortonville Herald-Star. The Herald, of Madrid, has done some pretty tall lying in the past but has evidently discov ered that it did no good. It has rebelled. It declares that it will print no more censored news frpm Cuba, vwhich If Vou Want Money to BuyaFarm? it pronounces false and absurd stuff which is demon strated later to I false. It wants no more responsibility for spread ing stories which "only faster and large the deceptions practiced by Blanco and his officials upon the Spanish people." It declares that i"El Heraldo is the first to make this declaration, and cost what it may, it will not publish any more falsehoods, but will tell the truth, be it confiscated twenty times a day. From now on, whether it be defeat or victory that settles on the Spanish arms, E|1 Heraldo will give the truth or nothing." Washington Letter. (From Our Regular Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, JULY 22,1898 Rush is the word now, and there is to be no let up until Spain drops to her knees and supplicates for peace. The combined army: and navy expeditiyn for the capture and occupation of Porto Rico,und er command of tlen. Miles and Admiral Sampson, has started,and early next week Old Glory will be permanently planted on Porto Ri co soil. How soon San Juan, the principal fortified port of Port Ri eo, will be captured will depend upon circumstances. It will be at tacked simultaneously by the army and navy, but it is the desire of President McKinley that it be tak en with as little loss of life as pos sible on our side, and for a time t*he fighting may be confiued to the heavy gUDS, but if they do not force an early surrender it will be taken by assault. Commodore Watson's fleet has, is is believed, started for Spaiu, to give the Spaniards a little taste of war at home, although that fact has not yet officially announced. The stories of friction between our artjiy and the Cuban insurg ents under Grarpia are doubtless much exaggerated, but there is some trouble over tjiere. Officials in Washington have no fear how ever, that it will become seriouis enough to worry over. There are some hot heads among the Cubans who favor opposing the putting effect of the U. S. military govern ment of Santiago, but they are not numerous enough to make them selves felt. That the insurgents were habitual liars has been known ever since we began fa investigate their statements concerning their own strength as well as the strength of the Spanish in Cuba, and dur ing the Santiago cainpaiii they dis played ah utter disregard for the rules of civilized warfare, by kill ing prisoners and looting the prop erty of noncombatants also their unfitness to be soldiers by refus ing to obey orders. In veiw of these things it is not strange that the insurgents should be kept out of Santiago, which will until fur-, ther notice remain under military gjbyepnment. The insurgents do nojb like our plaps, as they have gone so far as to n^trpe a governor. of Santiago in advance of the sur render, but President McKinley intends to do the rigl)t thing, re gardless of their likes. Jn accordance with an. act of Congr6eg, every company in the CI. S. army will be supplied a cook, just as soon as the proper men can be enlisted and sent to the army. These company cooks will rank as corporals. ^here is much talk in ordinance circles about a plan for the use of dynamite shells in any /cannon with ordinary charges of powdefr, which a Mexican, W S. Ishom, has asked the privilage of demon straing under goverm^nt auspices. He has letters from -Mexican of ficials, and from General P. Clay ton, U. S. Minister to Mexico, who witnessed two tests of the plan, pi&pouncing them sucfeessf ul.'

Owing to the numerous dona tions to the government, to help pay the expenses of the war, that have followed the $100,000 given by Miss Helen Gould, at the open ing of the war, it has been found necessary by the Treasury officials to open up an account under the head of "Donations to the Govern ment." These donations are of various amounts, and are nearly always accompanied by letters bristling with patriotism. One man, an employe of the Treasury, gives $50 a month as long as the war lasts an Enlishman sends a half guinea from London as a practical evidence of his sympathy a number of lodges of the Junior Order of United Mechanics have sent contributions, and a Polish Jew, residing at Plattsmoutb,Neb. sends $50 because he wished to do something to help and was too old to fight. No news received in Washington this week^ave more pleasure to President McKinley than the re ports from the army physicians to the Surgeon General on the pro gress of the yellow fever in Gen. Shafter's army. According to those reports, the fever is well in hand, and is of such a miid nature that few have died, and the gener al condition of the men is good. The Navy Department is accum ulating smokeless powder at the ljate of 8,000 lbs. a day, and in a very short time all our ships will be supplit-d with it. The War Department is also getting a large supply and the greater portion of the ammunition carried by the sol diers who have gone to Porto Rico are prepared with smokeless pow der, the Santiago campaign hav ing fnlly demonstrated its super iority, especially iu the protection of the men who'are on the fight ing line, ^JRDER FOR HEARING ON CLAIMS.
