The Watterson Club OF Louisville,
which is composed chiefly of members
who voted for Mckinley, seems very
much exercised over the future welfare
and success of Democratic party. Their
solicitude does not seem to spring from
any change of heart or repentance for
straying away from the party and voting
the Republican ticket, but from an anx-
iOus longing after the "loaves and fishes"
of local Office. These gentleBen should
possess their souls in patience. The
back door of the Democratic party is
open to them, but neither offices or front
seats are at their disposal until they
prove their faith by their works:-Eliza-

says the States floating debt is nearer

being run wide open at both ends upon

that no help can reasonably be expected

remarking that Mr.. Putnam had
manifested very charitable DISPOSE
ton towards Miss Thornton. Miss
Thornton had done little too much
talking, but then things were coming
out all right.
The second surprise party of the ses-
sion was now sprung by Mr.. Foster,
who produced letter OF resignation
from Miss Thornton as principal OF the
Franklin school which had been offer
ed under conditions. The conditions
seemed to have been met with, the re-
signatiOn was accepted.
Mr.. Foster with Judge Blacker's as
sistance then drew up the following
resolution, which it was believed would
free Supt Putnam from certain unjust
imputatiOns cast upon him by people
who were not informed on the facts.
"The board of trustees state IN order
to correct certain erroneous impress
siOns current ia the city.
list Professor Putnam has never
suggested nor urged the question OF
salaries of teachers, nor questioned the
action of the board in these matters,
and especially in regard to the adjust
ment of the salary OF Miss Thornton,
has been entirely free from any sug-
gestion on his part.
"2d.-In regard to the report cur
Miss Thornton and Prof. Putnam we
would state that Prof. Putnam's con-
duct has been exemplary and in the
interest of harmony, and in the dis
cussion of this matter he has exhibited
broad and liberal spirit in every re-
spect."
This was adopted unanimously, and
appeased Mr.. Putnam, who, however
had another grief thal appeared to be
making life burden to him, viz, the
fear that some of the teachers would
not agree to accept place for posi-
BILE seven months. He wished the
| board to remove the restriction. Mr.
Foster said that if that question wa:
| reopened, he would move for a reduc
ton of salary at least hfteeu per cent
Mr.. Pew stated that ii any teachers die
not want to accept, plenty more coulG
be had to take their places. The chal1
assured Mr. Putnam that there was NJ
necessity for his worrying himself ii
the matter as the secretary had bcer
Instructed to prepare letter of nOtli
