Republican Gonpention

The Neosho county Republican con-
vention was held in Erie last We'd
nesday. 1t was large and cnthus-
siastic assemblage Of the leading Re-
publicans of the county and was very
enthusiastic from start to finish. a,
ticket composed Of men selected from
the very best men in the county and
properly distributed over the county,
was nominated,
A word cannot be truthfully said
against the personal integrity or NOS
al worth Of single man on the tick
ct. The ticket was most judiciously
selected. There can be no kick about
classes not be represented The old
soldier, the young soldier, the civilian
the farmer, the mechanic, the teacher
and the towusman each got repre-
sentative or two,
We have never seen a more harmon
ious or satisfactory ticket put up in
Neosuo-Co and have never seen a big
hotly contested convention close with
as little i'll feeling. Certainly the
gentlemen who Jailed to receive the
coveted honors this time were prob
ably somewhat disappointed, but they
all are Republicans. If the Republi~
cans don't elect tins ticket from top
to bottom it will be because they
slaughter it themselves, and never
was there less reason for kick from
a Republican and more good and am
pie reasons for his voting a straight
Republican ticket,

Graduation.

Commencement Day at Goddard Sem
mary has come and gone and the twenty
three young people who have completed
full courses of study at that institution
went out from its doors today each
CARRYING a much charished diploma of
graduation from Its teaching.
Graduation began at ten O'Clock this
morning. First on the program was
music bv Blaisdell's orchestra of five
pieces. Prayer was offered by the Rev.
j. Edward Wright. The orchestra re-
ndered another selection, and then
came the Essay with SALVATION by Miss.
Alma Mabel Claugh of Washington
whose subject was " Legally " Miss
Clough proved that she is not only an
adept in the art of elocution but the sub
iect of her discourse was of very
scholarly order and did full credit to
the third honor of her class which was
awortled to her for high standing in
scholarship. In behalf of the class OF
'99 she gave cordial welcome to the
trustees, alumni and friends she paid
hiyh tribute to the faithful and efficient
work of the faculty and assured them
that their memory would spur them o"
to life of good work and prosper y
and would cngrave on their memories
an eternal love for Goddard, and in>ti
within them Il loyalty to home friends
country and school. She also dwelt al
some length upon that important subJec'
of taking vital interest in the natlol
and of the necessity of every citizen as
sisting by his honest vote in Keeping
our politics clear of corruption and t'
naotect it from the scheming poli'iciol
of today.

ting words the gratitude of the class tC
the trustees of the school for their eff
forts in behalf of the institution they
love so well, and to the teachers for the
benefit they have been to them in theil
school days.
AT the close of her remarks Mr.. Hol.
lister arose and in behalf of the faculty
bade goodbye to the class in words OF
hope and trust for their future. He
spoke of the fact that all Of the young
men but two intended to enter college
and also that three Of the young ladies
are imbued with the same desire. In
conclusion he introduced Arthur W.
Pierce, former principal of the school as
the most fitting person present to del
iyer TO the class the diplomes of gradu-
alton
In few fitting remarks that popular
factor in the prosperity of Goddard
Seminary told the young people of the
meaning of their class motto L" Loyalty"
and of the inspirations that the institu-
ton has inculcated within them for
loyalty to the right and high ideals. In
closing he presented the president of
the class with the diplomas and with
this was severed the last cord that bound
the class of '99 to Goddard Seminary as
Students of that Institution but it is safe
to say that their tenderesl memories
will remain with it forever
The class then Joined in singing the
class hymn which was written by Miss
Georgia Towers.
The Rev. Etlie X. M. Jones pronoun-
ccd the benediction and the exercises
were closed.

Prize Speaking.

Never has there been larger croWd
of people 10 attend the prize speaking
of the senior and junior classes OF God
dard Seminary than was present IN the
Universalist church last evening. Each
speaker was a credit to the institution.
and as Il general rule the audience was
well satisfied with the decision OF the
Judge, although, OF course, there neVei
can be unanimily OF opinion in such a
case.
Principal o. X. Hollister introduced
AS the first number on the program II
piano duet by the Misses Zoe Towers ana
Walston, and the young ladies gave
repeli,ion of their rare talent previously
shown during the Commencement exer-
cises. The Rev. Etfie X. M. Jones or
fered prayer, afteY which the ilrs'
sneaker, Clifford Lester Booth OF fut-
ney was introduced. His selection was
one from Wendell Phillips, entitled;
..Toussaint L'Ouverture." This style
of selection may appear to be an easy
one, but in reality it is one OF the
most difficult. Mr.. Booth has clear
s,yle of delivery that gives assurance ol
his ability as a public speaker.
"lIow the Church was Built at he'
hoes Barr" was the title OF the selec'
tion chosen by Alma Mabel Clough o1
Washington. Miss Clough was one OF
the favorite speakers last year anu 50

"A New Years Outing" was narrate,
by Irwin Lewis Potter of Barre. He ex
hlbited rare talent for impersonatiol
and from start to finish he carried hi
listeners in that horse race between th,
"parson'' and "deacon, and the "boys'
so vlvidly that it seemed as though they
were indeed present at the original
This selection has been recited in Barre
many time by both amateur and profes
slonal but we have yet see the equal of
MIR Potter. 1t is doubtful if any ques-
ton was raised in the audience but that
the judges would certainly award him
the first prize which expectation was
fulfilled at the return of the judges.
Miss Laura Alice Greene of William
stown reciled that touching story of
how The Fiddle Told" in a pleasing y
and graceful manner that made her selec
ton enjoyed by everyone.
That well known story OF .'Laska"
and that terrlable stampede of the steers
on the plains OF Texas was told by Miss
Helen Belle Marsh of Rochester in Il
clear and pleasing manner that was
very impressive.
John Angus afforded much pleasure
to those present by the rendering of Il
vocal solo.
Miss Georgia Laura Towers, of Rich
mond, was another of the favorite
speakers last year and everyone was
pleased 10 see her name again on the
programme. Bobbie Shaftoen was
her selection, and her excellent descrip-
lion OF the funny antics of the mischiev-
ous " Bobbie " and then the transmits
sion to the pathetic scene Of his retor-
nation and his heroism al the flood
awakened much amusement at the first
and at the last brought a spell of sad
ness throughout the church. She did
full justice to the selection and was
awarded the second prize.
George Washington Dickie, of Wash
ington, declaimed the oralion of IS Spar
tacus to the Roman Envoys." His voice
and articulation were most admirable,
and he has the ability to be talented
orator.
The last speaker was Miss Zoe Hor-
tense Towers, of Richmond, and she
evoked much amusement for her hear
ers by telling " How Heironymus Pop
Tended the Baby" Her representations
were Of the highest order, and were
probably enjoyed us much as any num-
Der on the programme. She was
awarded the third prize.
The judges were announced to be
Chas. III. Wells, Mr.. Small and Wade
Reyes. While they withdrew to con-
suit for their decisions delightful piano
solo was rendered by Goddards two
popular and gifted pianists, Miss Mabel
Hopkins and Miss Alice Foster.
All was expectancy in waiting for the
return of the judges, for it would be a
difficult matter to conceive of Il harder
task than to designate the winners, II
majority OF the speakers were SO clos"
together in their standing. The spell
was soon broken however for the judi
yes soon came IN and their chairman
Wade Keyes announced the winners as
follows: First Irwin Potter second
Georgia Towers and third Zoe Towers.
The benediction was pronounced by
the Rev. Effiie X. M. Jones and this
closed the exercises.
