There is trouble in the Notus school

there are only two trustees. one
having died, and they are not of the

CURED to them to employ teacher for
their school and one trustee wants a
Protestant while the other earnestly
desires Catholic. So there is a dead
lock in the NOtus school district. Mr..
Schultz was up to see Supt. Little
Wednesday, backed by a petition for
the appointment of another trustee.
The superintendent will probably make
the appointment in disregard of Cath

Notus will score a signal victory over
papacy. 1t is valuable commentary
on our American institutions that such
grave questions are settled without
bloOdshed.

THE RACES
Termination Of the Spring Mssiing-Q icksilver
Wins Agsin-Lark Defeats Liberty In
Match Race.

The third days meeting of the rae
ing association on Friday last was no
less successful than the first two. The
attendance was very good, and more
enthusiasm was evinced as the racing
progressed.
The first race Friday was a q mile
dash for a purse of 800, and brought
to the starting post Quicksilver, Lind
say, Grace Robinson and Liberty. AT
ter a little dancing at the start, the
horses were sent away well together.
Quicksilver soon went to the front and
won very hsndiIy. Liberty 2, Lindsay 8.
Time 1:lS1@.
The next race was for COW horses a
mile and repeat, for purse of $25, and
brought out three starters-Nellie,
Cora and Eli. The first heat was won
by Nellie, Eli being a good second,
Cora third. Time 2414. Nellie was
favorite for the heat and race.
The second and third heats were won
by Eli, Nellie being second each time.
This was a good race, the horses being
urged from the fall of the flag until
the wire was reached. Time, 2424 in
each heat.
Saturday, the Consolation race for a
purse of 800, 600 yards and repeat was
run. Lindsay and Topas were the only
entries. Lindsay won both heats in
3424.
A special race, % mile, best two in
three for purse of $50 was next run.
The entries were Grace Robinson,
Lindsay and Cora. Grace Robinson
won the two first heat, Lindsay 2, Cora
8. Time, first heat, 3815; second, 382l.
The last race of the meeting was the
match between Lark and Liberty for
a wager of $25 side, and $25 given by
the association. The distance was half
a mile. Much speculation was INDUCED
in as to whether Lark could "stay" the
half, many betting on Liberty, not be-
cause she was the fastest, but because
they thought she was the slayer. The
horses were at their post and a false
start being made they both ran half a
mile before pulling up. Lark had the
runaway hea: Corralled but Liberty's
hackers now had hopes of winning
the race. The horses were again
brought before Starter Reagan who
dispatched them both together, but
Lark, who jumped to the front with
the first leap, remained there until the
wire was reached winning comfortably
in So seconds.

END OF the COLLEGE YEAR.
The Students Make spioudid showiag-ir
strustiUe and Interesting Exercises.


The exercises attending the closing
OF the college year, during the past
week, have been universally brilliant
and creditable alike to the students
and the institution of which Caldwell
is so justly proud. Last Sunday Rev.
j. III. Barton delivered the baecalaur-
cate sermon, which was a mastery dis
course, and fitting introduction to the
splendid exercises which followed.
Monday night the Lowell and Column
bian literary societies rendered the
program published last week, all the
participants acquitted themselves with
great credit. Space will not permit
extended mention of the individual
performances of each and when it is
said that they all did exceedingly well.
the criticism is just The Columbian
society had five members on the pro.
gram, as follows: Bertha Plowhead.
W. 9. Mitchell, Gertie Hart, ida White
and Carl Peterson. The Lowell society
furnished four performers, as follows:
Lille Alchenberger. Bessie Mitchell,
James Boone and Lille PIowhead.
The T. q. Egleston contest occurred on
Tuesday evening in the opera house
and was witnessed bv a large and en-.
thusiastic audience. TIE TRIBUNE
will not venture to pass judgment on
the merits of the different contestants
but submits herewith the official YER
dict of the judges. In our judgment,
the ratings are all too low.

RESTRICT IMMIGRATION.

II all the members OF the United States Sen
ate and House Of Representatives could pay a
visit to-day to Fills Island, In this harbor II Is
likely that bill restricting immigration would
be passed by both houses Of Congress at an
early day. Unprejudiced persons who have
studied the subject thoroughly are agreed that
our present laws permit the shipping to this
country and the landing here OF many aliens
whose coming to the United States works posi-
tive detriment 1t Is true that the laws provide
for the sending back OF passengers who are sure
to become charges upon the public-such as
cripples and sick persons, and men and women
who are wholly without money and In such

sufficiently rigorous, and they do not sift out

ARGENTINA TO THE FORE.

1t is not alone the competition Of the Great
Powers, as we proudly term them, that arouses
Mr.. Chamberlain's intensely practical mind to
devise ways and means for maintaining British
supremacy In the international business world
The United States and Russia and Germany do
cut into British trade or the trade that he thinks
should be British, here and there. But other and
so-called lesser nations are doing so. too. Mt an
alarming rate 1t has become fashionable for .
certain class Of Englishmen and AnglomanIac
Americans to speak with contempt Of the Span
ish republics Of South America as half-savage
communities, unworthy Of consideration among
the real nations Of the world. Yet one Of them
is to-day giving Great Britain, commercially
speaking, more anxiety than almost any other
country.
We refer to Argentina; land whose agri-
culture seems tn be as prosperous as its public
finances are, or have been. disastrous 1t would
be difficult to find another country where greater.

years Take. for example, the one item Of

The managers and agents Of such steamship

consuls abroad should be instructed to use every
legitimate and proper influence to discourage
the shipping to America Of passengers whom
America ought to refuse and to reject rather
than to accept.
Americans are eager in their invitation to peo-
nle in other lands whose coming to the United
States would promote enlightenment and prog
