We will never part with the Philippines, 1 am sure, and in future years the ilea that anybody should have seri rnly suggested it will be one of the curiosities of history. This is the pinion of a patriotic citizen, expressed at short range, wys the Spokesman-ReTiew. It is spoken on the authority of long and close ttudr, and will carry weight against the utterances of the arti ex pansionists, who hare been speaking at random, with imperfect knowledge of conditions in the islands, and fanciful notions concerning the char acter of the Filipinos. Admiral Dewey has read, of couise, We history of his country, and re calls that every movement made in the iast century to carry the flag west of the Mississippi river has been resisted by we U-meaning but short- sighted politicians. They opposed Jefferson's acquisition of Lousiana. They were against the annexation of Texas. They ridiculed the move ment to bring In the Pacific North west. They did not want California; and Seward's parchase of Alaska was characterized as an act of supreme folly. Thirty years ago the nation would not have cared a copper if Seward's deal for that territory had gone by the board. Today we are wrangling wun Canada over a nar row strip representing an almost in fioitesimal part of the area of Alaska. Why this remarkable change in sen timent? Because the great mind of the nation realizes that every mile of American territory is needed for the fullest development of American re sources. And thus will it be 20 or 30 years hence with the Philippines. From that base we sball.'develop an Orient al commerce which will add immense ly to the wealth of the nation, and the day will come when the sons of the snti-expansionisu of the present day would volunteer to shoulder a riflejfor the defense of one of the smallest of these islands, if its owner should be claimed by another power. dara together, and that full during active campaigns were seldom practicable. No arany ever raised in this country had been as fully and liberally supplied as that which is now in service, or has recently been mustered out. This is no more than its due. The country Is glad to bestow the most generous care upon its valiant defenders. And it is pleased also to have the acknowledg ment from as thorough and dis tinguished a soldier as Law loo. At Minneapolis on Friday the Presbyterian general assembly be came involved in a controversy over the end of the nineteenth century Some said it would end with the vear 1899. and tbey were wrong. It will end at midnight of December SI, 1900. In other words, the year 1900 will be the last year in the present century. The 20lh century will be gin with th year 1901. This ought to be readily comprebetded.

Law ton makes two statements of especial interest. Law ion is a man of deeds. In the war with Spain be directed the operations against the strongly fortified position at Caney, near Santiago. He went through that most trying campaign in full health and in due time was transferred to Manila. In the Calumpit advance be held the right, swinging his men swi'Uy and far into the enemy's country, cutting off their retreat to the east snd threatening their rear. Lawton served in the civil war and is also known as the man who walked the Apaches to death. Comparing the volunteers of today with those of the civil war, he says: "The fight ing qualities of lb men are the same. The American soldier is one with courage, nerve and giit. He has been just the same at all times, as be always will e, a courageous and brave soldier." This compliment j r - i .... irwo a man wuo Knows win be ap preciated. Referiing to the Santiago cam paign wbere he was at the extreme front from Drst to last, Lawton re marks: "We had a deadly climate to contend with; worse in that re spect than anything we had in I be civil war. It is true that for a few days we were short, but that was for lack of transportation, and then we were never without some portion of the ration, and that portion more tban our soldiers had at the best during tte civil war." Every soldier An eiereiM which always elicits wide spread interest is that of commencement day, when the school work is ended, and at the commencement of real earnest life work, the graduates tell ns of their aspirations and hope for the future, while teachers, schoolmates, relative and friends join with them in celebrat ing the momentous occasion which marks the closing of school labors and tb opening of wider responsibilties, Tb stags at tbe Vogt presented an at tractive appearance Saturday night. It bad been decorated with palms and flowers and appropriately draped in oar national colors, tban which nothing could be more fitting for soch an oc ration. To add tbe finishing touches, daring a selection by the Commercial band, eleven "sweet girl graduates" and four of the noblest boys of onr city, took their place t hereon, the class personal being Martha K. Baldwin, Harriet N. Cram, Harry E. Curtis, Nettie M. Fred- den, Grace L Hobeon, Heater Kent, Lena C. M. L'ebe, Ivan E. Oakes, Clyde W. Riddel!, George H. Rocb, Martha A. Schooling, Lena L. Thompson, Ena E. Uren, Martha C. Wbealdon, Grace X. Willerton. Tbe exercises opened with two splen did selection by the band and inter cpersed with the essays were the follow ing mnsical numbers, perhaps the moat classic a a whole yet given in the city : A piano overture by Misses Jalia and Clara Nickelsen ; vocal solo, "Tbe Angels Serenade," with piano and violin ac companiment, by Mirs Myrtle Mlchell; violin and piano duet by Clarence and Mande Gilbert; quartet, "Jaanita" by Messrs. Landers, Kortbnp, Poling and Lnndell. j as i tie exercises progressed, many were beard to remark that never bad they listened to gradcating essay which displayed more deep thought or ad vancea oeuer ideas man those read on this occasion, some thoughts being truly wonderful coming from students of their year. Tex Chronicle only regrets that it pages are not many times tbeir site that it might reproduce tbem, for they were productions of wbicb any city might justly teel proud, and, a a minister was heard to remark yesterday in the pulpit, if tbeir pi erepts are heeded in practical life will make an army of young men and women whose influence will be a power in a community Not alone were the essays good, but their delivery was such as to give every thought its proper weight and foice and prevent that annoyance when but half the words are distinguishable. Tbe subjects were chosen as follows: "Gladstone" by Harry E. Curtis; "Build Thee More Stately Mansions," Nettie M. F redden ; "Englith Poets of the Nineteenth Centnry," Martha A. Schooling ; "Life is What We Make It," Lena L. Thompton ; "The Influence of True Ideals," Martha K. Baldwin; "Creation's Crowning Jewel," Lena C. M. Liebe; "Tbe Advance of Govern ment," Clyde W.
