Commencement.

Wednesday night showed as bright
a graduating class to the assembled
throng in the Presbyterian church as
has ever been sent out from the High
school. Seated upon the platform
with the members of the school board
their eyes sparkling with glad salts
faction, their countenances marked
with the intelligence of their years of
school work they became as an
inspiration to the younger classes to
emulate their example and crown
their own school labors with gradua-
ton. After the short program pro-
vided, Gov. A. B. Cummins, the
present brilliant chief executive of the
great commonwealth of Iowa, was
introduced and delivered one of his
characteristic and eloquent addresses,
teeming with brilliancy, smoothness
and solid thoughts. His own
personality is an inspiration to any
class and his ease and grace of man
ner might easily set any boy to wish
ing to emulate his life.
When he had finished, President of
the Board. w. Fl. O'Connell, very
neatly presented their diplomas in a
snicely worded and taking speech, and
the young folks We're really at the
commencement of life's great I'M
avoidable duties.

Memorial Day.

Memorial day will again soon be
here and the Business Mems League,
have taken in hand the services to
relieve those veterans who have
born the burden for years and glad
ly turn over the cares, contented to
spread the garlands over their COM
rades and in the knowledge that
when every veteran who wore the
blue is gone, the custom will remain
as long as the government they
saved, lives, and each returning
spring time will see the people flock
ing to the great silent city of the
dead to deck with floral tributes
every soldiers last bed. From the
custom originating just as the dove
ofpeace sank cooling back into the
heart. of our great union, has grown
a tradition that grows stronger with
each succeeding generation. The
youths pick up the martial strain
and march step by step with the
savers of our country. Sentiment,
the adanantine rock upon which
our greatness rests, grows stronger
until time shall ever hear the bugle
blowing taps, soft and low over
every silent soldiers grave.
Extra is not behind any town on
earth in honorin G her living and her
dead. This year will be one of the
best and every veteran who comes
to this town is requested to be pres
ent. George w. Cosson of Audubon
has been secured TO deliver the ad-
dress and every one will be pleased
with him. We will give the full
program next week.

Good Roads.

Much is being said and written of
good roads. Conventions are being
held. Laws are being put on the
statute book repeating old laws.
Money is being spent. We feel like
saying, work en- as the best solu-
ton of the problem. But there is
something back of it all. II. L.
Wattles, our county surveyor, has
Just returned from the good roads
convention at Des Moinesand is en-
thusiaStic over the possibilities.
From points given by him we have
been able to see some things differ
emily. A glance at our county with
its roads running on section lines
shows the utter impossibility of
ever having the best roads from the
amount it will take to grade the
hills down and then keep them in
shape afterwards as the rains and
snow by drifting make the hills
where deep cuts are made almost it
not wholly mpassable.HEThi diff
Iculty can only be eradicated by
changing the road where necessary
and go around the hill or hills COM
ing out where the grade will be less.
An ample of this may be seen on
the road west of Hamlin. The
county has expended around $4,000
grading and the hills are still al
most impossible. This spring land
was purchased t6Skeep on thesrid ge
and atsIess than twill cost the
countyg in the next three years to
grade them. This might be don ia
many places over the3cqpnty and
money5and horse power saved.

District Judge Declares Much Dis
cussed Measure is Unconstitutional.
Centerville. Ia, May S.-Judge Rob-
erts, In the district court. dcided what
is known as the Temple amendment,
relating to damages to. railway en-
ployes, to be unconstitutional The
provision of the law, which was in
serted about eight years ago, created
a great deal of discussion and much
bitter feeling at the time. The bill
was fathered by M. L. Temple Of
Osceola and provided that where an
employe Of a railroad company re-
ceives aid, in case Of his injuries, from
relief department or organization
supported by railroad company, no
contract he may enter into. shall pre-
vent mis- right of action for damages.
1t Is understood the case will be car
ried to the supreme court, and if sus-
tanned it may throw the question into
politics again.
