FIRST WARD COMMENCEMENT

The long series of graduation exercises
| IN the city was closed last Friday even
ing when fifteen graduates of the FIRST
ward hugh school received their diplomas.
There has been considerable variety in
the nature OF the closing exercIses of this
school during the past few years and
this year they took the form of a semi
pubic meeting of the literary society In
which all of the graduates participated.
1t Is one OF the most deep rooted policies
of the school to emphasize public speak
ing rs part of the high school training
and the graduates last Friday night dis
played gratifying ease and readiness
before an audience which crowded every
part OF the assembly room. The declam
nations and essays were we'll given and
the debate was close aid warmly contest
ed. We understand that but little more
than ordinary preparation was bestowed
on the program and If this is the case it
shows that the instruction in English and
composition given In the school is of the
highest order. The following program
was rendered, musical numbers by pupils
In the school lending pleasing variety
to the exercises.

The protestatione of republicans in
favor OF civil service are hypocrltlcal as
ls well shown by the setting aside of
Cleveland's order by Secretary Gage.
All outside deputies are to be removed
TO make place for those who desire office
at the hands of the present adminIstra-
tlon. Thus the good work done by Presi
dent Cleveland is completely nullified.
civil service reform Is a good thing to
talk about but poor thing to practice
according to republican ethics.

Mckinley, the salary of which Is 5000

who has stamina enough in him 10 refuse

THE Milwaukee Ssntine FL condenses a
great deal of truth into the state ment
that interest in the tariff will cease as
soon as the Offices are taken ont ofpoiitics.
The desire for office is the basis of the
political opinion of many people. With
them the party, which Is JOINT creation
of Individuals, is supreme. They have no
political conviction except as they accept
it from the party whose tool they profess
to be in order to make it 90 instrument
to COMPASS their own selfish ends.

foundations deep. Its work natures in

that the people of that section are be-

The thirst for Office seems TO increase
with the advance of time. Never before
WAS the desire so acute as at present.
Whether this is due to hard times or to
growth of appetite it Is not easy to tell.

strength. as many OF them desiring Bry-
