the presidency of De Paw was more

Cambridge City, Ind. May 2S.-Thir-
ty-five years ago, the alumni associa-
ton of Cambridge City High school
was organized, at which time two
young men constituted the class of
graduates. Since then three hundred
and sixty-four have passed from the
protecting environment of school life
to take their places in the work-a-day
world. The class this year is COM
posed of twelve young ladies and
young men. On Tuesday evening a
reception was given IN their honor,
which served as a reunion of old time
friends as we'll. The X. of p. hall, in
which the meeting was held, had been
made a place Of beauty with boughs
from the forest, and flowers from the
garden. An old fashioned fire place
in the corner of one room was a no.
ticeable feature. The mantle was a
bank of white peonies, on which APP

POISON IN THE FEED.
Another Attempt Made to Kill
Animals Near Foun-
tain City.
FIEND IN THE VICINITY.

Fountain City, Ind. May 2S.-When
Jacob Showalter went to his barn
Tuesday morning and prepared to
feed his horses, he found the feed had
been covered with paris green. 1t is
believed a direct attempt was made TO
poison Mr.. Showalter's horses.
There seems to be some fiend incar-
nate who has selected the horses of
this vicinity as his particular prey.
1t was only a short time ago that a
barn was entered and an attempt
made TO cut off a horses leg. IgnOr-
ance of anatomy alone prevented the
success of the deed. The horse was
injured permanently, however.

RECIPROCITY WITH CUBA.

The Cuban reciprocity treaty has amply vim
dicated itself in the four full years in which il
has been in operation. II viii be remembered
that it was long and bitterly opposed by ele-
ments here which contended that il would fail
20 benefit the United States. and would only re-
suit in transferring 20 per cent Of the duties
levied by the Dingley law on Cuban sugars and
tobacco from The United States Treasury into
the pockets Of the Cuban factors and planters.
IL was argued that though might 90 on buy
ing increasing quantities of Cuban sugar and
tobacco, forfeiting fifth Of the customs duties
OF them, the Cubans would not be tempted 10
avail themselves Of the special concessions in
duties American foodstuffs and manufact-
ures, bur would continue 10 buy what they
wanted in manufactured goods from Great
Britain, France and Germany. The Tribune
never believed that the bargain struck with
Cuba would prove from point of view a
barren and one-sded one. We asserted as posi-
lively as could our conviction that trade
between the two countries would materially in
crease under reciprocity and that the United
States would reap fully as much benefit from
the convention as would Cuba.
II is pleasant to note how completely our e1-
pectations have been fulfilled Returns of trade
for the calendar year 1907, published BY the
bureau Of statistics of the Department Of Com
rnerce and Labor, show that since 1909 our i'm
ports from Cuba have increased 61Ia per cent
and our exports TO Cuba have increased 1231L

ket for Cuba's chief products-sugar and to-
bacco-had been long established. The de-
mand here for sugar and tobacco is enormous.
while Cuba's capacity to consume foods ana
manufactures from abroad is relatively small
We have had also to compete with the manu-
facturers of European countries, to which the
Cubans had formerly looked largely for their
supplies. Yet we have been gaining on these
countries for while the islands newborn pros

power, we have not only held our share OF this
increase. but have made further progress at the
expense of European shippers. Our share OF

leader of the Assembly, who is doing his ut
most to secure the adoption of the bills III
question It will not be upon those Republican
Senators and Assemblymen who are doing
their duty in advocating the legislation to
which the governing party stands pledged.
But it will fall upon those self-created bosses
who have cynically given the order, in the
words of their organ to "let well enough
alone" and upon those members of the Legis-
lature who are so subservient as to do their
bidding In Mercer and Camden and other
counties it may profitably be remembered that
there were bosses in Essex and Hudson and other
counties a few years ago who are not bosses
any longer. and throughout the state it may
well be borne in mind that a few years ago
there were members of the Legislature who de-
fed the popular will and broke party pledges
and who are longer members II at the
dicfation of the bosses and bosslets the solemn
pledges of the party are repudiated, there
should, and we hope and believe there Will, be
a state housekeeping which will revolutionize
the leadership and organization Of the Repub-
lcan party in New Jersey.

ISSUES ~ NEW JERSEY.

The overwhelming defeat of the local option
bill in the New Jersey Legislature was not
surprising and was not unreasonable. u will
be regretted by many sincere temperance peo-
pie and will be resented by few of those
extremists whose intemperate utterances doubt
less increased the majority against the bill
such as the Jersey City preacher who has been
conducting what The Newark Evening News"
terms a campaign of impertinence, intemper
ance and misrepresentation" 1t is not fitting
nor profitable TO tell legislators that they
Will be politically killed and damned as
enemies Of the human race if they do not
vote for something for which they are not
pledge4 to vote and which there is proof
that majority of their constituents want.
Local option was not issue in the last cam
paign. There was no promise Of ii in the Re-
publican platform, or in the Governors inau-
guraI message. There is breach of faith
in declining TO enact it The temperance issue
in the last campaign confined TO the Ell
forcement of the existing Bishops law To
that the party pledged itself in its platform and
the Governor repeated the pledge and the
voters OF the state expressed at tho polls their
satisfaction Herewith. That pledge is being
kept. The Legislature will not repeal the
Bishops law" and the Governor Will enforce
it and is enforcing it. Upon that point the
record of the Republican party in New Jersey
is clear and impregnable.
There Were. however other issues and other
pledges. One issue to which the party pledged
itself IN the most direct and binding manner
the enactment of q comprehensive and sat
iSfactory Civil Service law. Another pri
mary election reform The party committed
itself 10 these things in its platform and the
Governor did so in his public utterances both
before and after election. The people accepted
the pledges in good faith and largely because
of them elected a Republican Governor and
overwhelming Republican majority in the
Legislature. Now the people expect to see
those pledges faithfully fulfilled. They have
long been accustomed TO broken Democratic
pledges, but they regard the Republican party
4 party of its word. They look TO it now to
keep its word in the enactment of Civil Ser
vice, primary REFORM public utilities and other
urgently needed laws. If il does not do so they
will want TO know the reason why, and it will
have 10 be an uncommonly big and strong
reason TO prevent them from visiting condem-
nation upon the men responsible for Ii breach
of faith.
Nor will there be much hesitation or uncer-
tainty IN placing the responsibility. 1t will
not be upon the Governor, because he is the
executive and not the legislative part of the
state government. and because he has stood
and is standing Loyalty, manfuy and aggres-
siyeIy for an honest fulfilment of the party's
promises. 1t will not be upon the Republican
