relations between the United States
and Spain were ended. His cablegram
said that he had been given the pass
ports before he had had an opportuni-
" to present the altimatum transmit
ted to him for submission TO the Span
ish government, the delivery of the
ultimatum to Minister Polo having
been accepted By the Spanish govern
ment as formal announcement on our
part
Judge Day at once hurried to the
White House, where he found Presi-
dent Mckinley about to enter a car
riage to take Mrs Mckinley to the
railroad station. where he intended TO
see her of on a short trip TO New
York. The news that diplomatic re-
lations between the United States and
Spain were formally at an end. was
SO important that the president bade
= hasty good-by TO his wife on
the White House portico and repaired
Immediately to the upstairs part of the
house. where he and Judge Day held a
conference, the result of which was the
dispatch of Secretary Porter to the cap
itoI to communicate the news to the
senate committee on foreign relations,
and also to leading members Of the
house 1t Is presumed that this was
done in order to facilitate any action
deemed necessary by congress
By hasty summons Senator Davis,
of Minnesota, chairman of the senate
committee on foreign relations; Sena-
tor Lodge Of Massachusetts, member
of the committee; Senator Allison, of
Iowa, leader in that body. and others
were brought TO the White House,
where they joined Assistant Secretary
Day and the president shortly after
ten o'clock in conference, whose pur-
pose is to map out the immediate pol
icy Of the United States
The conference broke up shortly af-
ter half-past ten o'clock, Judge Day,
accompanied by Senator Lodge, going
over to the state department The as
sistant secretary would say nothing re-
garding the conference further than
to authorize the statement that q
public announcement would be made
later in the day. Chairman
Davis of the senate foreign relations
committee was not explicit, simply re-
marking: We've taken the trick"
Asked specifically regarding the hand
ing of his passports to Minister Wood
ford, he said that that was all right;
that the delivery of the .ultimatum to
the Spanish legation here had served

nicely when be says that Royce's pro-
position had several tails to it. Royce
had an opportunity in '95 and '96 to
chow Just what, he would do had he
the power, as he then had a contract
with the county TO do job work. For
instance he agreed to print 81 envel-
opes for $2 90 for 800, but charged
in many instances so %. There is
one tail MIR. KiDzie. There 10 q large
amount of job work that is not men
toned in the contract. Royce printed
a list Of the teachers in the county.
and charged twenty dollars for the
same. The HERALD the year previous
charged twelve dollars for a course OF
study Of about the same size. Teach
ers' examination questions cost under
Royce eleven dollars, under Brainerd
six dollaiz For printing the official
bsllot of SO in the Dispatch Royce
charged $l54 50, Brainerd got S35 90
for the same work The commission
ers called Brainerd in and asked him
TO measure up Royce's work, but he
declined. Mr.. Murray did not want
to pay tho bill but was induced to do
80 by Mr. Crltbg who said because
Brainerd worked low it WAS no reason
why Royce should do 80"
For printing the official ballots in
1885, Royce charged this county 1888 30
more than was charged in Shuwnee
county, although the latter casts over

Royce is peculiar bird. When
things 60 his way he fawns and fiat
ters, but should official or private in-
dividual cross his path, be struts and
roars, and calls the offending parties
anything but pleasant names. OF
course with the over charges mention
ed above and a 5000 increased pest
Office appropriation, and with his
method of charging for work not con-
lracted for, be can make q seemingly
low offer for work, but just which
would be the cheaper plan for the
county will have to be determined by
the future. We make this assertion
however: If the Herald had had the
printing in '95 and $50 Phillips county
would have saved about $500, for the
work would have been done for that
much less tan was paid the Dispatch
for tho same work.
We have a lot more Of the same as
above if Mr.. Royce wants to keep up
the fight.
