The custom of holding public graduating
exercises at the High School in this city has
been omitted this year. Many reasons have
Influenced the committee in taking this
course. The expenses attendant upon such
occasions have always been a drawback to
some who could not well afford it. Again,
the trouble aud extra work involved has
always had a tendency to detract from the
closing weeks of the course. Such occa-
slous are becoming more aud more elaborate
and it seemed to the committee that the bel-
eft derived from them was not worth the
extra woik they always cause. Yesterday
the members OF the gra luating class read
their essay before the members of the COM
nittee, and the ordeal of graduating
usually beset with So many terrors, passed
on very quietly. No visitors were present,

A LEvEL.HEADED DEMOCRAT.

Congressman Foran. of Ohio. repre-
sents a very large labor constituency,
and although Democrat lie is not a
blind follower of a weak leader. ANeek
ago a Cleveland club named in his honor
endorsed Cleveland's message and SO in
formed the president and Mr.. Foran
The latter replied in formal note. in
forming the club that he did mot agree
with the spirit of the resolutions, and
cannot, consistently with my own CON
victions of duty, be guided by them in
any vote may give upon this subject. "
Mr.. Foran does not believe that re-
duction of tariff duties will cure the evils
Of The surplus-as it certainly would not.
He adds: I'VE are certain Of one thing:
All articles placed upon the free list les
sen the revenue just the amount now col
lected On such articles. ! favor placing
upon the free list all articles not produced
in our own country or which can not be
favorably grown OF manufactured in our
own comfy. l also favor the abolish
ment of the tobacco tax, and the tax
upon such spirits as. are used in medical
preparations, and in the arts, if it can be
done without defrauding the govern
ment. In fact I favor the reduction of
the surplus, but l desire to see this ac-
coinplishad. il it can be done. without
touching or disturbing. any American in
dustry." ..... a.. .s
So far asconcerns the revenue ques-
ton Mr.. Foran is not Democrat-at
least he says he does not. believe in the
theories advanced by the president and
the ieadersaof, the party in congress. The
policy which he advocates is that which
the Republicans favor, and which, by
the aid Of a few level headed Democrats
like Air. Foran, they expect to enforce in
the revision Of the tariff this winter. TEsF

Let your board of trade send their ex-

railroad direct to the Rich Hill coal fields.
Our citizens viii give them q right royal

lion tons of coal have been shipped from

parties interested are continually spying
out the land and making quiet purchases
OF large tracts both in Bates and Vernon
counties, in the vicinity of Rich Hill,
shows that we have the. coal supply. and

that Is necessary to have it done is to
