HISTORY OF SPANS
TROUBLES REC|TED
Minister Prieto Tells How the
Conflict Began
THE VATICAN IS BLAMED
The Entire Difference of Opinion Has
Arisen Over Law Controlling the
Religious Organizations In
Spanish Territory
THE VATICAN IS BLAMED

San Sebastian, Spain, August 2-Garcia
Prieto, the minister of foreign affairs, in
an interview today, in which he recited
the history of the negotiations between
Spain and the vatican, denied that the
holy see had adopted a conciliatory atti-
tude.
Senior Prieto declared that Cardinal
Merry del Val, the papal secretary of
state, had adopted dilatory tactics from
the first, alleging that the speech from
the throne contained points against the
Catholic religion.
I'VE protested our good faith and de-
sire to reach an agreement" said the
minister. when we enforced the decree
Of 1902, against which neither the curia
nor the episcopate protested Cardinal
Merry del Val demanded that the decree
remain a dead letter, although the yati-
can since that date granted numerous
audiences without the sanction of the
Spanish government
Finally the demand OF the vatican for
the withdrawal of the bill permitting
non-Catholic organizations to display the
insignia of public worship was deemed
inadmissible The recall of Marquis de
O5eda, our ambassador at the vatican,
was in full accordance with diplomatic
usage when a power with which another
power Is in relation, refused to admit
the justified pretensions of the latter or
adopts an arbitrary course"
Discussing the chronology of the dis
pute Senior Prieto said that the Spanish
note to the vatican May 20 had insisted
upon a reply to the general demand of
the Spanish government contained in 1t.
The vatican remained silent until June
II. On that date Cardinal Merry del Val,
the papal secretary of state, notified the
Spanish government that the reply of
the vatican had been suspended on ac
count of the declaration of religious
policy made in the Spanish note from
the throne.
A note giving reasons for further delay
was determined upon June 90. Finally,
on July 9, Cardinal Merry del Val
stated that the vatican would reply to
the Spanish note of May rs.
The note provided that the Spanish
government take no steps to enforce its
civic program. To this the Spanish gov
eminent answered with a renewed in
sistence upon a reply to the note of
May 26. Now Cardinal Merry del Val
offers as a reason for declining further
negotiations the general attitude of the
government and the Introduction Of the
bill allowing non-Catholic organizations
to display outwardly the emblems of
public worship, this, too, In spite of the
fact that when the Marquis de Ojeda ex
planned to Cardinal Merry del Val the
purport of the bill and the expressions
In the speech from the throne referring
to 1t, the latter accepted the explanation
and through Marquis de Ojeda expressed
regret for the attitude of the Roman
Catholic press.
Senior Prieto now asserts that Cardinal
Merry del Val alleges that the bill and
the project are divergent, which is con-
trary to the bill of the pontiff.

some months ago. Mr.. LOIimer. a reg
ular republican, ward poll tician,
without recognized qualifications was
elected United States Senator by the
aid of Democratic votes. The eyes
of the nation have been upon the dem
ocrats of that body, to if possible
aScerti ain the motive that caused the
strange action If these representatives
of their party. An Indictment for
bribery against several of the Demo-
crat members of the Legislature in
cOnnec' ion with LOrimerS election has
partly cleared away the mystery.
These traitors were bitterly denounced
at a recent meeting of democrats at
Lincoln. Neb., who demanded the
retirement from politics Of every one
who betrayed the party in that COLI
test. This public rebuke brought a
protest from one of the traitors who
had not been indicted who explained
his vote for a republican after being
elected as democrat upon the ground
of patriotism. An exchange made this
timely comment upon his attempt to
Justify himself:
ANY democra who voted for Lori
mer for patriotic" reasons ought to
be retired tc private life and kept
there long enough t. learn what pa
triotism means. The dt mOcratS who
assembled at Lincoln were right in re-
fusing to draw line between those
who voted for L0rimer for pay and
those who voted for him because they
lacked sense. 1t is almost as danger
GUS to have fool in the legislature as
a knave. A democratic legislature
who could be convinced that he was
performing patriotic duty in voting
for Lorimer could be persuaded t. do
any thing desired by the lobby, pro-
vided the same patriotic arguments
were used He is not fit for any reI-
resentaiive pOsitiOn-it is hardly safe
to allow him to run at large
The LOrimer senatorial election
seems, from developments. to have
been the most corrupt in the history
Of the natior: that majority of the
democrats should have voted for such
mar, under such circumstances, is
in itself conclusive proof Of widespread
corruption. If there were democrats
who did not actually receive money
they could not have been ignorant of
the means being employed.
Turn them out. The party can not
pause to defend those who are guilty
or who, il innocent, have aroused a
suspicion which can never be remov-

In another paper Mr.. butcher urges
the teaching of Ornithology in the reg

He would have each school organize

be to study the life history of birds
and to protect them from harm. He
think that one hour each week would
be ample time to devote to the indoor
study. but that out Of the school the
members of the club should observe
birds ia their homes, and take notes
to be presented at the club meeting.
Boys and girls brought up after this
fashion, with intimate association

grow into such sympathy with birds
that they will love to protect them,

Oyster Bay, L. l., Aug. 22.-Theo-
dore Roosevelt denied emphatically
that he had sent an ultimatum to
President Taft demanding that the
president break with Vice President
Sherman.
Colonel Roosevelt's attention was
called. to report to the effect that
Lloyd c.. Griscom, chairman Of the

temporary chairman of the New York
state Republican convention and in
recommending the vice president in
stead.

Beverly on any mission. He made it
clear that he had no intention Of do

which could call for such a step.

The report which called forth Mr..

"A break between President Taft
and Vice President James S. Sherman

between himself and the president.

Regardless of politics, which is
just as it should be, candidates for
state offices are pledging themselves
to support the movement started id
Bemidji by the Northern Minnesota
Development association, for a just
and equal re.apportionment of the
state.
Secretary w. R. Mackenzie is re-
ceiving pledges in every mail signed
by candidates seeking office, be thew
democratic, republican or other
wise. 1t seems apparent that the
thirtyLone counties will elect no one
who is not pledged to the re.appor-
tionment and good roads movement.
Not alone is this true in northern
Minnesota, but candidates from
southern counties express themselves
to be heartily in favor of this vital
piece of legislation.
