81 200 to dedicate it. twas against the
resolution appropriating this sum that
the Democratic senators voted.
We believe those five Democratic
senators through their votes simply de-
clared the sentiments which their fel.
low partisans in the House lacked the
temerity TO advance. When the ques-
tion came up for discussion in the lower
house last week, it was received by the
Democratic members as a laughable
and presumptuous request. If, they
argued, the e.. A. X. men have begged
and saved for SO many years to build
this memorial they are quite capable Of
continuing TO beg and save to obtain
funds to dedicate it.
The opposition, however, realized
their false step, when Speaker Capron,
indignant at the disrespectful insinua-
tons of the mushroom politician from
Glocester, took the floor and in deep,
earnest words pleaded the cause of the
old soldier. His speech was followed
by more Topping thar can be witnessed
in a shoal Of fiat fish in shallow
water. The young graduate from
Brown University explained that he
would give his vote for the appropria-
tion only on condition that he be per-
mitted to vote for all similar rsolu-
tions.
The men Of the Grand Army require
no assistance given in so parsimonious
a manner, and they will not be true to
themselves if they allow the member
from Glocester, and those who follow
him, any opportunity to vote in future
legislatures.
We regret that our senator from this
city should temporarily retire from poll
tics with the memory of the vote
against the old soldier to stand as a
black mark against his otherwise credit
able record. We admire his courage in
declaring his reasons for voting against
the resolution, but we would remind
him that at the May session, 1890,
when his party was in control of the
House of Representatives, they voted
$4,000 to send the militia to
the Pawtucket Cotton Centennial.
Their conscience was not troubled,
neither were they worried by the
question as to whether the appropria-
ton was for private or public matter.
AT that time, however, Boss Carroll,
who was mayor of our neighboring
city, asked for the money. Tuesday it
was only a remnant of brave boys who
faced disease and death for their coun-
Try, requesting the state to spend a
small sum in properly dedicating a me-
mortal to their dead comrades. Therein
les difference which the Democratic |
mind can easily grasp.
Fortunate, indeed, was il for the men
'f Sedgwick Post that they had Re-
publican Legislature to appeal to. For
'unate, indeed. was it that they had men
ike Governor Brown and Speaker Cap
'on to plead their cause. Fortunate.
indeed, will it be for them and the whole
tate If in April next they see to it that
he places of their friends are not taken

ourage and patriotism, and are deaf to
he appeals of the hero veterans.

Commencement Exercises.

The commencement exercises of thu
Columbian class of our high school were
held in the M. E. church Wednesday even
ing Of this week. The church was prettily
decorated with blue and yellow streamers
the class colors, flowers and plants. Tht
work of decoration was in the hands of the
junior class, who also acted as ushers. A
$50 o'clock the program began with marcel
played ON the pipe organ by Miss Heller
Duff. The two selections by the chorus OF
fOrty-twO school girls, trained by Miss Duff,
were very nicely rendered, as were the two
musical numbers by the Quartets. Supt
Simmons introduced Rev. Washington
Gardner, as the speaker of the evening, and
the address delivered by him on the subject
''Does it pay to educate?" was very strong
and forceful appeal for higher and better
education. Speaking of the laboring classes,
he said: "There is no such thing as humble
toll if it is done in the right spirit, and with
the right end in view. 1t is mind, imperial
mind, not wealth, that moves the world to-
day. The mind, next to the soul, is the
gift of God, and should be cultivated. Edu-
cation does not create, but develOpes, the
mind. The demand of the day is for edu-
Gated men. 1t was the educated soldiers
OF the long list of successful generals,
every one was graduate of West Point.
Many young men who are now working for
minimum of wages, might become mas
ter in his profession if he would. There is no
excuse for any person, however poor, not
receiving even the highest education if he
willed. These things only are essential
good, fair mental ability, good health and
the use of his own earnings"
Superintendent Simmons in presenting
the diplomas to the class. reminded them
that they had just begun to climb the noun
tains, their graduation from the high school
was but step; that they should not be con-
tent with what they have achieved, but go
on winning other victories. Rev. Gardner
pronounced the benediction at the close of
the exercises.
The class of 1913 is as follows: Latin

Does it pay? This is the question applied
TO every action and circumstance In life,
even to education, according to the Rev.
Washington Gardner. But we ask, does 1t
pay to have circus visit our city? We do
not wish to raise big discussion. There
are those who will say it does, because a
great many people, farmers especially, only
have one vacation year, and that Is when
the circus comes to town. We would not
deprive this class of the enjoyment ~ OF
putting on their best clothes, coming down
town, standing around for three or four
hours to see parade, then perhaps spend
ing their earnings to go to the circus when
the money Is sOrely needed to keep suffering
and want from the home. Considered fnan-
cially, and that is the rule usually applied,
the circus yesterday left in the city for
groceries, baked goods, meats, hay and grain
about $3.50, and paid the city the magnificent
sum of $25 for license. They took from
the city at least s$5, 000-some say $4,000.
Besides this, the factories were all compelled
to shut down, the employees wanting to "see
the elephant" work there was stopped for
day at season when they are all rushed
with orders, and the actual loss in wages
to the men themselves in the Estey, Wood
ard and Bentley factories alone aggregate
$1,274! Added to this, is the bringing in to
the city of gang of thieves, pickpOckets
and dangerous characters, who make
property and even life unsafe for the time
being.
We do not expect to effect change by
this article. The next circus that comes
along will make the same haul. But we
submit these facts for the consideration of
our readers.
