THE SCHOOL BOARD.
Met Saturday Afternoon at the Of
flee of the President.

A called meeting of the school board
was held at O'Clock Saturday after
noon at DR.. Races Office with all MEM
bers present.
The object was to select al architect
to supervise the erection of the new
school buildings. A wide divergence
of opinion, however, developed when
the subject was brought up.
At the last meeting the architects
had been invited to be present at the
next and submit plans, when a deci-
sion had been promised as to how the
contracts for the buildings would be
let and an architect be selected.
No architects had been notified to
attend Saturdays meeting and as soon
as it was called to order A. G. Foster
asked DR.. Race to explain the neces-
time.
DR.. Race said he was anxious to
avoid the confusion and trouble of
deciding between competitive plans.
W. r. Martin said he did not think
it would be acting in good faith toward
the architects, who had been invited
to submit PEN: to proceed to an
election.
A. G. Foster moved to adjourn but
there was no second.
County Judge Harper moved that
Architect Kneezell be elected, but
there was no second to his motion.
E. @. Pew then moved that the board
proceed to the election of an archite ct
by secret ballot His motion received
no second.
After prolonged discussion Mr..
Martin moved that the external COM
mittee draw up q contract, with the
architects name blank and submit it to
the board at q special meeting for
ratification: alter which an architect
would be elected subject to his accept
ance of the contract.
Mr.. Shelton seconded Mr.. Martin 8
motion. which after further discussion
was adorted.
The date of the next meeting was
fixed for Wednesday afternoon at s
O'Clock, and then the board adjourned.

trade; by intoxicating public morality,
and, in short, Ivy taking every rational
step to aid the Cuban people to attain
to that plane of self-conscious respect
and self-relant unity which fits an en-
lightened community for self-govern-
ment within it's own sphere, while en-
abling 1t to fulfill all outward obliga-
TONS
'This nation has assumed before the
world a grave responsibility for the
future good government of Cuba. We
have accepted a trust the fulfillment
of which calls for the sternest integrity
Of purpose and the exercise Of the high
est wisdom The new Cuba yet to
arise from the ashes of the past must
needs be bound to US by ties of singu-
lar intimacy and strength If its endur-
ing welfare is to be assured. Whether
those ties shall be organic or conven-
tional the destinies of Cuba are in some
righful form and manner irrevocabiy
linked with our own, but how and how
far is for the future to determine in the
ripeness of events Whatever be the
outcome we must see to II that free
Cuba be a reality not name; per-
feet entity not hasty experiment
bearing within itself the clements Of
failure
Our mission. to accomplish which
we took up the wages of battle. is not
to be fulfilled by turning adrift any
loosely framed commonwealth to face
the vicissitudes which too often attend
weather. states whose natural wealth
and abundant resources are offset by
the incongruities of their political or
ganization and the recurring occasions
for internal rivalries to sap their
strength and dissipate their energies.
The greatest blessing which can come
to Cuba Is the restoration or her agri-
cultural prosperity, which will give en-
ployment to idle men and re-establish
the pursuits of peace. This is her CHER
and immediate need.
ION the 10Th of August last an order
was made for the taking of the census
in the island, to be completed on the
S0th Of November. BY the treaty OF
peace the Spanish people on the island
have until April II. 1900, to elect wheth-
err they will remain citizens of Spain or
become citizens of Cuba. Until then 1t
cannot be definitely ascertained VINO
shall be entitled to participate in the
formation of the government or CUBA
By that time the results of the census
will have been tabulated and we snail
proceed to provide for elections Whicn
will commit the municipal governments
of the island to the officers elected by
the people. The experience thus ac-
uured will prove of great value In the
formation of a representative conven-
ton of the people to draft consutu-
ton and establish general system Oh
independent government for the island.
In the meantime and so long as we ex-
ercise control over the island the prod
ucts of Cuba should have a market In
the United States on as good terms anc
with as favorable rates OF duty as are
given to the West India islands under
treaties Of reciprocity which shall be
made"
Reference is then made to the reliet
work done in the island. the payments
to the Cuban army, Cuban revenues
and resumption of diplomatic relations
with Spain.

Refers to the Resolution Passed by Con-
gress April 10. 1897.


The president then takes up the i'm
portant question OF our connection with
Cuba. and says:
"The withdrawal of the authority of
Spain from the island of Cuba was ef-
fected by the LIST of January. so that
the full re-establishment of peace found
the relinquished territory held by us in
trust for the inhabitants. maintaining
under the direction of the executive
such government and control therein as
should conserve public order. restore
the productive conditions of peace so
long disturbed by the instability and
disorder which prevailed for the great
er part OF the preceding three decades,
and build up that tranquil development
of the domestic state whereby alone
can be realized the high purpose as pro-
claimed in the joint resolution adopted
by the congress on the 10th of April
1893 by which the United States dis
claimed any disposition or intention to
exercise sovereignty. Jurisdiction or
control over Cuba. except for the paci-
fication thereof. and asserted its deter
minatlon when that was accomplished
to leave the government and control OF
the island to its people.
'sThe pledge contained In this resolu-
ton is OF the highest honorable obliea-
ton and must be sacredly kept. I be-
Iieve that substantial progress has
been made In this direction. All the
Cuba have aimed to At II for regener-
ated existence by enforcing the su-
premacy OF the law and justice; by

THE GRAND TRUNK STRIKE.

The situation at the Grand Trunk yards
in this city remains unchanged and SO
far as observable there Is no disposition
to yield on the part of the road or the
striking trackmen. OF course the storm
center is in Montreal and concerning
matters there the Star says:
1.-The war between the Grand Trunk
management and the striking trackmen
promises to be long and interesting one.
Since Tuesday he management has put
into execution its threat Of dismissal, and
all the strikers who refused to accept the
company's terms and return to work yes
terday, have been notified that their ser
vices are no longer required by the COM
pany. AS very few of the men obeyed
the order of the company, the dismissal
has had revolutionizing effect. The
management are filling the places of the
strikers as fast as they can. 1t is said
tn 1T the task is quite an easy one, and
the hope is expressed that before the end
of the present week sufficient men will
have been engaged to carry on the work
of looking after the tracks in as efficient
a manner as formerly.
THE strikers themselves are not dis
couraged over the recent trend of events.
They are evidently relying upon the CO.
operation of kindred railway oTganiza-
tions, but, as yet, there are no indications
that these organizations contemplate as
sisting the men. The engineers are APP
plying for an increase in pay, and 1t is
probable that should they bs turned un-
der as the trackmen were a strike of 81
gantic proportions will take place in
which the trackmen and engineers will
stand shoulder to shoulder. The end of
the present week may witness some in-
teresting developments on either side.
''Mr. Harris returned from trip to
Messina today. He reports the men as
being unanimous in their decision to op
pose the demands of the company.

MEMORIAL DAY AT THE NOUN
TAINS.

The Maine Central railroad with its 40.
oustomed generosity has arranged for the
first excursion to the White Mountains to
take place Memorial Day, tickets being
sold at the low rate of $l.5O to Fabyans
or any intermediate stations.
The spring season is considered by
many to be the most delightful time at
which to visit the White Mountains, as
the air is much clearer than in the warm
summer months, SO that the outlines OF
the mountains are sharply defined. and
the young foliage in its light greens and
yellows makes pleasant contrast to the
dark storm SCARED mountain SIDE This
Is also the best time of the year for
brook trout fishing. and doubtless
many will take in the excursion for this
purpose.

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGs. manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in TIE form most refreshing to the
taste and : cceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and levers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please
