The hatred for the Spanish race has
reached the school boys of this city,
and to call one a Spaniard is taken as
an insult. Wednesday morning ol this
week as a number of boys, between
the ages of 10 and 13, were returning
from school, two ot the number—one
a fair-haired chap and the other of a
swarthy cast—wore iangling as only
kids can jangle. The climax was
reached in front of Willoughby's photograph gallery hy the" fair-hairedboy
calling the .other a Spaniard. Out
shot the dark hoy's fist catching his
opponent on the proturberance—commonly called tho nose—starjt.in^ y_e
Washington, April 14,-r-The sentiment at the embassies and legations
today was that th&action in congress
made war inevitable and that little or
no further chance remained to escape-
from it,
Cardinal Eampolla's dispatch from
the Vatican to the foreign offlce in
Madrid, stating that a piece settle*
ment was stij-l likely,' is,known hero
to have been made on advices sent
from Washington two days ago, which
in no way reflect today's condition of
af_a__s. The advices were sent by
Archbishoi. Ireland, who at the time
Of the dispatch believed the tendencies
were more pacific, This, however was
before either branch of congress had
acted. Wbat further views the archbishop has communicated, if any. to

is not known, but the fact of this advices to thc Vatican two days ago is
known with circumstantial detail.
There is in diplomatic circles renewed talk of European intervention on
more definite lines than heretofore.
It has not, yet advanced to the point,
however,, of a joint policy or the exchange of notes either among the ambassadors and ministers at Washington or at the canitols of Europe, aud
if anything is done it will probably
be only after a further appeal from the
Spanish government, similar to the appeal which induced the recent action

Apropos of a drst-classgrist mill, the
next best thing is that of good roads
leading to our city. Good roads leading _o any town or city are one of the
best trade-drawers that is known, ItiS
cheaper in the end to build good roads
than it is poor ones. INo tax is as
great as one of bad roads. A bad road
is a heavy tax on those who use it, and
the worse the road the heavier the tax.
Improved roads bring better prices for
farms and farm products. Double
loads- cbeanen transportation. But
there are other benefits to be derived
from good roads aside from economy of
transportation. They heautify the
country, they act as an inducement to
neople to settle here, and they make
life pleasanter for the resident.
Wagon highways are the greatest
arteries of commerce. Ee_ulfcs of im
proved roads—tremendous increase in
the value of farm property, facilitates
business, greater happiness for farmer,
wife, sons and daughters, shortens distance to be traveled. He who shortens
his distance to market gains a great
adyantage.
