Mrs. VIM. Torrey, Mrs. Jennie Castle.
and Misses Vida Shaw and Meta Leg
Ter favoring the packed house with se-
lections.
The class address. by Judge Ed. H.
Madison. of Dodge City, gave excellent
satisfaction. It was full of deep
thoughts. replete with earnest comment
and contained much of suggestion that
if followed by the young graduates will
help to make them good. useful and
true members of society. The selec-
ton of Judge Madison to deliver the
address to the class was happy one.
The few words of advice given by
President of the Board Bunting should
be needed, by the citizens generally. as
well as by the students. Following are
the names of the
CLASS OF 1900:

WHEN WILL THEY HAVE
ENOUGH

The Carnegie company made $21 ,OOO,-
900 last year, and yet Mr. Carnegie Is
not satisfied. He wishes to get posses
sion of Mr.. Frlck's interest for less
than Its value. The Standard OIL COM
pany has Just declared quarterly div
idend of $2O,000,000, or at the rate Of
10000, 900 for the year, and yet Its d.
rectors are not satisfied. They wish
congress to pay subsidies to the ocean
going vessels In whose earnings they
have a share. II there are any other
American corporations whose profits
were 500, 900 900 last year or promise to
be $SO,00O,O 900 this year 1t may be taken
for granted that the men at the head
Of them are no more satisfied than the
Carnegles and the Rockefellers and no
more scrupulous as to the methods Of
their possessions. Ther, seems to be
no limit to the rapaclty corporations
which have been built up at the ex-
pense Of the public by excessive tariff
protection, by Illegal railroad discrlm-
nations or official favorltism. The men
who rule those corporations may not
want the earth" but they certainly
want the United States and the abun-
dance thereof. They and their allies
on land and sea are working at the en-
tire subiugation Of the government, so
that they may add more millions to
their present annual revenues of $780,
10000 In the case OF the Carnegie
company and the $50, 100000 in the case
of the Standard OIL They try to put
their creatures In all official places
which touch their interest at any point.
They demand subsidies for their ships.
They insist that the money of the gov
ernment be deposited in banks In
which they are interested, so they may
be able to control the stock markets
and lend to the taxpayers the money
which the latter have contributed to
defray governmental expenses. Their
demands are usually complied with.
There are three things that are never
satisfied; yea, four things say not 1t
is enough" That may have been the
case In the old Hebrew days Today
there are the Standard Oil company
the Carnegie company the sugar trust,
the International Navigation company,
the National City bank, and other CO.
lossal corporations which overshsdow
the government itself and are never
satisfied. When will they have enough?
