To the robaeco Leaf-chronIcIe.I


We are gratified to resume our
monthly repor's, under such auspi-
cious circumstances. After most
pleasant summer rest, our school re-
opened Sept. with most promising
prospects, the number enrolled being
more than double that of last term.
That which speaks most highly for
the school, is is steadily increasing
local patronage, while ii is becoming
rapidly known abroad for its high
moral tone and thorough, complete
course of study. Superior advan-
tages are offered in art, music and
the languages, all of which depart
ment are full. We are glad to an
nounce Miss Meta Belle Wiser, as Il
member of our faculty, having en-
gagged her as an assistant in music.
We have almost reached our limit in
the boarding department, and think
we are justly proud of the excellent
girls sent us from Virginia, Florida,
Texas, Alabama, Kentucky and Ten
nessee. Our literary society, the
academy muses., has been reorgan-
lied, and its members are now study
ing "The Lights of Two Centuries"
with great interest. We would re-
mind our friends at large, that any
contributions to the library, either
cash or books, will be most accepta-
bic, and sincerely hope they will
generally respond to our call. There
will be library receptions, from
time to time, of which tine publit
shall be duly notified.
The faculty of the academy pro
pose 10 organize a society for the
study OF the 10Th century, and cor
daily invite the teachers of Clarks
vile to join them, especially those o.
the university and the public school
We would be greatly gratified also Il
the editors of the town would lend
us their esteemed presence upon
these occasions. We will meet Sat
urday evening Oct. 4. just here We
would call attention to our reception
days: Friday afternoon, all of sat
urday, begging that our friends have
respect unto them, as we are anX
ious to enjoy their calls, and find ur
selves too much engaged at othe
times. No visiting at the Academy
on the Sabbath day.

CLEVELANDS SPEECH.

The speech made by ex President Cleve.
land at the Thurman banquet was mag.
-'a+11scent demonstration Of what good gov
ernment consists of, and should be read by
every thinking man in the country. There
is not wrong sentence or misplaced word
in the entire speech. In one place he said:
"When, therefore, men in high places of
trust, charged with the responsibility of
making and executing our laws, not only
condemn, but tlippantly deride, cheapness
and economy within the homes OF our peo-
pie, and when the expenses of the govern.
nent are reckless and wasteful, we may be
sure that something is wrong with us, and
that condition exists which calls for Wig.
urous and resentful defense OF Amercanism
by every man worthy to be called an Amer
lean citizen"
Gpon this very issue Cleveland was once
defeated for President. The Republicans
raised the cry OF cheap labor and the people
misunderstood the great question. Never
has the United States government been so
economically administered as when Grover
Cleveland occupied the Executive Mansion.
1t was an era of chopping off the heads Of
SiucCuiC OllCcIS VINO ulu mounting Dut uraW
lucrative salaries for doing nothing. If a
man worked for the government he had to
earn his money. 1t was his careful econo-
my t4at accumulated the millions in the
United States treasury until an emergency
arose that government must either be prof.
ligate or must reduce its revenues. Presi.
dent Cleveland pointed out the danger, and
recommended to Congress that taxes be re.
dnccd to meet this emergency. He was de-
feated, but the emergency was met by Re.
publican Congress, and now the surplus has
been 80 rapidly and thoroughly depleted
that many departments of the government
are actually suffering from want of appro-
priations.
The day is coming when these sound doc.
times of Grover Cleveland will again go be.
fore the people, and the result will show
how nearly unanimous the people are upon
this subject

puted claim is, according to the 1ff6une's
correspondent, "opcn to criticism when ad-

as $4,000 from rich claim agent who de-
rives fat income from the prosecution Of

But Commissioner Raum is retained in
