Logan Egigh School.

Last Friday the 1st day of Marcl
was our High Schools Glass day
1, together with many of our citi.
zens during the entire afternoon
and from first to last were highly
entertained.
The class is the largest that ha;
ever been in this school, and be.
lieve, stands on a level with any
graduating class in the State. !
was among the men who suggest
ed the idea of a four full years
course in our high school. This,
not only gives our graduates a
thorough training, but brings them
to any age sufficient to know How
to honor and appreciate their at
tainments; to honor their teachers !;
to honor each other and to honor
the community in which they live.
The literary work displayed by
them all, showed clearly, bright
intellectual ability, not usually
found in every member of a class
so large. 1 will say to you all,
"you done WELL" not one mistake
made by any member of the class.
Prof. Raymond has right to be
proud of such class. Now let me
say to you few words by way of
advice.
You have yet full three months
to study before commencement,
during which time much time will
be spent by way of reviewing; this
reviewing will concentrate all your
high school labors before you;
study well to make it accomplish
its design, be not discouraged in
the least, but push forward to the
end of the term, and your COM
mencement will be PASSED through
with as much ease, and as little
embarrassment as your class day.
Then will you each obtain your de-
gress, in honor to yourselves, your
teacher and your friends. A di-
ploma received from the Logan
High School is an honor to it's
holder; it stands high in the Insti-
tutions of the State, and other
states as well. And for this reason
we should be proud of the Logan
school and it's classes.

That Front Street Bridge.

The Council have taken steps to
have an enabling act passed by the
legislature by virtue of which they
will be enabled to increase the bond
ed debt of the town for three separ-
ate and distinct improvements,
namely to Macadamize Gallagher
Avenue, the purchase of the Kessler
property for the purpose of open
ing to proper width that part of
Orchard Street and to erect a
bridge across the Canal on Front
street.
To the first two of these improve
ments we have no serious objection
if they can be accomplished without
increasing the already heavy tax
levy for-corporation purposes, but
to the third we object.
We are not opposed to bridge
at the point designated, in truth we
think it would be a matter of great
convenience to the public, but at
the same time we do not believe
the citizens of the cooperation
should be burdened with it's con-
struction.
The tax payers of this town con-
tribute largely to the bridge fund
of the county in which, under the
law, they, in their corporate capa-
city, have no share, while on the
other hand the law gives the COM
missioners full power to construct
the bridge, and a petition should be
circulated, at once, asking them to
do so.
The request should be granted
by them not only because it is a
needed public convenience but in
justice to the tax payers of the
corporation.

refusing his signature. The reasons
are those which impelled the Plain
Dealer to oppose its passage. They
had weight with eminent members
of both political parties in the Sen
ate and House, who openly oppos-
ed or silently declined to record
their assent to the bill. They will
commend themselves to all who
study them carefully and are not
swayed by selfish or blindly part
isan considerations. The bill is de-
clared to be in contravention of
the constitution and Republicans
as well as Democrats concede it,
though some of them believed the
plunder could have been secured
without that question being raised
before the courts. Aside from this
the president held that the measure
is Objectionable, unjust and danger
Gus on the other grounds which he
points out. Similar objections were
made to the bill by Senator Ed
monds, the chairman of the senate
judiciary committee committee,
who after its passage the last time
requested that his protest against
it might be recorded.
The truth is the bill would never
have been proposed but for the ex-
istence of large surplus which
offered temptations that many sem
ators and representatives could not
resist. 1t would not have been
pushed with such eagerness but
for the relief it seemed to offer to
the taxpayers of beneficiary states
q relief which Senator Blair point
ed out to be wholly illusory. Ohio,
unfortunately, stands on record as
the most greedy in the scramble
for the prospective, the condition
or the state treasury affording the
excuse. The president did right
in vetoing the bill and that fact
will be apparent in due time, what
ever may be thought or said by the
disappointed now. - Cleveland

HARRIsoN's inaugural seems to
indicate purpose to enforce the
civil service rules, yet no Democrat
need expect that this will extend
his lease of Official life. The Presi-
dent was on his good behavior
yesterday, yet there is little doubt
that within thirty days he will
throw away the traditional AK with
which officials have been decapita-
ted, and furnish each department
with a buzz saw. There is going
to be tremendous official slaugh-
ter, and Democrats will be compell-
ed to furnish the gore.-Columbu

Thomas is a devout member of

THE business Of the G. III. V. & r..
road has wonderfully increased.
1t was stated to a reporter of the
Columbus Post on Tuesday morn
ing by one of the officials of the
line that the freight traffic was
nearly four times as large as their
passenger business. This would
indicate an enormous freight traffic
as their passenger business, which
is always up to the average, and
that is large, has increased this
year.
If this be true why cannot we
have our noon passenger put on
again.
