City school took place last Monday,
and many who are interested in
school matters attended. The affair
was splendidly arranged one, the
essays were excellent, the hall was
magni6cently decorated, and the
music was fine. After the presenta-
ton of the diplomas to the gradu-

evening dance was given which
was the most pleasant and social
affair that has been given in Silver

Japan is making too great show
of that chip on her shoulder. Ever
since she whipped lot Of half-fed,
understood, poorly equipped, badly
managed, undisciplined and unoffi-
cered coolies, she has been making
a display Of cordwood that is in bad
taste. The shoulder on which she
wears the chip has been hitched
thitherward on one or two occasions
before, but never SO polntedly or
aggressively as in the matter of our
annexation treaty with Hawaii.
Japan rushed in where some of the
first-class powers fear to tread, and
discloses an anxiety to keep the
chip to the front that is almost
laughable.
1t will be painful, we presume,
for Japan to see Hawaii declared a
free territory, where the slavery Of
contract labor may exist no more,
and to which she will not be per-
mitted to send her starving people
or criminal class. At the same time
her protests would be received with
more patience if there were not be-
hind it a threat What Japan needs
is a good spanking, and it gives US
all pleasure to know that Uncle
Sam is able to give her what she
needs. IS. F. Post.

THE State Democratic COnven-
ton at Columbus, Ohio, is the larg-
est held there since the war, and il
was a free silver convention in all
of it's details. Two Of the pianks in
the party platform read as follows:
We are opposed to the policy and
practice Of surrendering to the hold
ers Of obligations of the United
States the option reserved by law
to the Government of redeeming
such obligations in either silver coin
or gold coin.
We are opposed to the issuing OF
interest bearing bonds of the United
States in time of peace, and con-
denim the trafficking with banking
syndicates, WHICH in exchange for
bonds at an enormous profit to
themselves supply the Federal
Treasury with gold to maintain the
policy of gold recommendation.
The Ohio Democracy need not
fear to go before the people of their
State with thatkind of timber. One
of the greatest crimes committed by
the last Administration--for there
were many crimes committed then
and one that is being repeated by
the present Administration, is that
the United States surrendered to
the bondholder the option of re-
demption in either gold or silver.
Let the Buckeye Democracy go be-
fore the people of Ohio and win on
that platform, and in 1900 William
j Bryan will be elected on a plat
form containing similar planks. -

FIGEL, the man who it was
thought killed merchant Hoffman
some weeks ago, in San Francisco,
has been arrested and charged with
that crime He was not allowed to
furnish bonds, so now languishes in
Jail. While he may be innocent,
circumstances point to his guilt.
His crime is not as great as that OF
Durrant, but his case will be watch
ed closely from now until he is
convicted or acquitted. San Fran
cisco is in the front rank of cities
noted for mysterious murder cases.
