Six States Have Violent Stor ms.

Since last Friday the states of Ne
braska, South Dakota, Iowa, Wisconsin,
Minnesota and Northern Illinois have
experienced aseries OF the most violent
storms known in years resulting in
the loss of nearly a dozen lives, and
doing damage to property and crops
that will run into the hundreds Of
thousands. In the states of Nebraska
South Dakota and Iowa, tornadoes
the real old-faseioned twister kind.
have laid waste large sections of the
country, converting hundreds OF farm
houses and buildings into kindlinr
wood, tearing up trees like SO many
weeds. At least six tornadoes of great
er or less intensity have been reported
since Friday. In many other sections
violent wind, rain aud hailstorms,
accompanied by terrific tightening
and thunder, have been experienced.

WASHINGTON, June 3.-The diplom-
attic relations with Spain, broken off
April 81, 1898, were formally resumed
at IL o'clock today, when President
Mckinley greeted Due d'Arcos, the
newly accredited minister to the
United States, in the blue parlor OF
White House. simultaneously In
Madrid, if the programme arranged
was carried out, Bellamy Storer, the
United Stated minister to Spain, was
being presented to Cristina, the queen
regent, during the legal minority OF
his Catholic majesty, Alfonso XIII.
It was notable occasion in the
worlds history-the resumption OF
friendly relations between two nations
which had been at war, and in the
brief struggle had changed the map of
the world. ''F
The address and the response were as
follows:
D'ARCOS TO MCKINLEY.
"Mr. President: / have the honor to
place in your excellency's hands the
royal letter, by which her majesty, the
queen regent of Spain, in the name of
her august son, King Alfonso Kill,
accredits me to this government in
the capacity of envoy extraordinary
and minister plenipotentiary. l have
come to renew the relations of friend
ship which have existed from of old
between Spain and the United States,
and which were interrupted by the
war of last year. The treaty of peace
which Spain has signed put an end to
the war; and now, looking only to the
! future, Spain desires that her relations
with this republic may be as friendly
as they were in times past, and from
the days in which this country was
struggling to gain its independence.
1t is my task to contribute to the re-
newal of these relations, to strengthen
them and to draw them closer; and in
the discharge hope to be aided by
| Vic kluUutSS anu CO-OptIdGlOu vi yOuI
excellency and your government"
MCKINLEY TO D'ARCos.
"Mr. Minister: I receive, with the
greatest qualification, the letter by
which her majesty, the queen regent
of Spain, in the name of her august
son, Alfonso Kill, has accredited you
to this government as envoy extraor-
binary and minister plenipotentiary.
You will find, Mr.. Minister, cor
dial welcome IN this country, not only
from those whose friendship you have
acquired during your former residence,
but from all our people, who rejoice,
as do, at the renewal OF the ancient
bonds of amity which, with brief in
terruption, have united our nations
for more than. one hundred years.
That these friendly relations may be
confirmed and strengthened to the adj
vantage of both people is my earnest
wish; and l can assure you that every
member of this government will heart
ly cooperate with you to that desira-
BILE end"

Washington Soldiers Monument
Fund.

We have received from the commit
tee of the above named fund the tol-
lowing letter which explains itself.
The object set forth in the letter is
very commendable one, as it appeals
to us all to do something towards per-
petuating in a suitable way-as tar as.
cold marble can do--the memory OF
Washington's fallen heroes. Even
since the letter was written number
more Of Washington's brave sons have
fallen in battle in the Philippines.
No doubt the movement will meet
with hearty response from all parts
of the state:
OLYMPIA, Wash, June 5, 1899.
To THE EDITOR:
The most precious possession OF a
nation is the life of its citizens.
When these lives are given up that
the country's stability and perpetuity
may become assured, it is fitting that
their memory should be perpetuated
in most enduring manner. A large
number of Washington's brave boys
have been called upon to lay down
their lives in the late war with Spain
and in the Philippines. They have
given all they possess at their coun-
try's call. They must not be forgot
ten. The least the grateful people OF
this state can now do is to rear to
their memory a monument that will
tell in ever enduring eloquence to fu-
ture generations their honored names
and their heroic deeds.
Therefore, it is deemed proper to
erect at the capital of this state a
suitable shaft with appropriate in
scriptions. To promote this object a
meeting of citizens was recently called
at Olympia, which meeting appointed
committee of eleven and directed it
to proceed in it's own way to execute
what is believed to be the wish OF
every patriotic citizen of the state,
That committee, as organized, appears
upon the circulars.
The committee is now ready to pro-
coed with it's work, the first part OF
which will be to secure the necessary
funds to erect the proposed monu-
ment. It is the desire of the com
mittee that the people of the state be
made acquainted with this proposition
to pay tribute to the honored dead
AS is usual with all public enterprises
the press is first called upon to con.
tribute-of its time, its influence and
it's space. The committee has nc
doubt that all this will gladly be given
by the press as its contribution to the
cause.
Fraternally yours,
J. OBJ. ScoBEY,
Committee on Press.
