The big high school auditorium was
wholly inadequate to the demands
made upon its seating capacity last
night when was held the twenty-sec-
ond annual commencement exercises.
TO see the forty-eight young women
and young men graduated, crowd Of
immense proportions went to the build
ing. Scores went home disappointed
after seeing the impossibility of sccur-
ing seats. Each aisle was lined with
chairs and perhaps two hundred per-
sons. or as many as the space would
accommodate, stood near the entrance.
There were seventeen literary course
graduates and thirty-one from the
commercial department. After they
had taken their seats the platform
contained nearly $50 pupils, the larger
number comprising the chorus of fresh
men, sophomores and juniors. The
spectacle made one appreciate the re-
sponsbiity as we'll as the power of
the public school system.
The decorations were those which
have for several days served for the
training school commencement and
class day exercises. 4 cOmmendable
feature of last nights exercises was
the absence of unnecessary red tape
in announcing the different numbers.
That information was contained i'm the
programmes distributed at the door.
The individual selections played by
Bauer's orchestra and its aCcompani-
ment of the Choruses was not the least
attractive part of the commencement

CUBA AND THE CHURCH.
Sympathy for the Patriots from a Roman
Catholic Source.

From the New York Freeman's Journal.J
Cuba has been q chronic victim of a
foreign occupation, with all the abuses
and miserics that such occupation i'm
plies. This blithing colonial system of
Spain is drawing near it's end. The Gu
bans will soon be free to govern them
selves. 1t will be better for them and
for the church in the island. The
church is Catholic, not Spanish, and it
is time she should be d~isassociated from
the odium of Spanish rule in Cuba.
But, say some, the Cubans cannot
govern themselves. The fact that they
established a government that has
withstood successfully the power Of
Spain for three years is evidence to the
contrary. But ever If in the beginning
they could not govern themselves well,
it is certain that they could not govern
themselves worse than they have been
governed by a greedy set of Spanish Of
ficials. When things are at their worst
any change is for the better.
The same objection was raised against
the Mexicans when, under the leader
ship of a Catholic priest, they revolted
against Spain. And yet there is not in
the world todaya more prosperous coun-
try than Mexico. The Mexicans did not
lose their Catholic religion whey they
threw off the Spanish yoke: nor will the
CubanS.

The End at Hand.

spain, as a country and nation, is UNI
dergoing trials which threaten to wipe
that monarchy from the map of Europe.
| War with one of the most powerful and
resourceful nations on the earth seems
not to suffice the Spaniards and in order
to have the excitement necessary to the
hot blood of the dons, riots and revolu-
tions must be kicked up at home.
Judging from dispatches received
from Madrid, while the statesmen and
queen regent have been talking of ma
tional honor and integrity" the labor
ing people have been starving, and a con
dition of affairs have been brought about
which threatens the existence of the
present dynasty. In fact, ruin and dis
Indignation stare that unfortunate land
in the face. The scene of land grab
bling may possibly be transferred from
China to Spain, and the spectacle of the
great European powers concentrating
for the division of the once great
kingdom may prove an interesting show
for the western continent. Such is the
state of affairs today.
How much better it would have been
for the Spanish, one year ago, to have
listened to the voice of wisdom and con
scented to have sold Cuba and Porto Rico
to the inhabitants who have since hum
bled Castilian pride to the dust? But
Spanish PRIDE has had its way and
now comes the fall. The history of ma
tionS teaches that certain conditions
bring certain inevitable results. Spain
has fulfilled those conditions to the let
ter and the twentieth century will see
the end. Revolution seems certain, and
that once started the rest will follow as
surely as the earth makes its journey
around the sun.
