Do they sell'when other parties desire to erect new ate handsome buildings' And again, while on the subject ol High street property, do our citizens remember that the ripper bill, which it was desired to saddle on the tf, contained a clause giving that board the power to real estate? Another matter.

The two republican papers of this city in opposing the Court and Ross street bridge have said that certain parties hare options on Court and Ross street property and are counting on a bridge at this point to "make thousands of dollars." We challenge either of the above papers to name the property or properties covered by an option or options and the party or parties who hold the same. You have made insinuating assertions; now produce the facts. In this connection we will help you out. "We will say that there is an The supreme court of our state yester- option on a piece of Court street prop- day rendered a decision which will cause erty, but we ask the Republican and the considerable of a stir among saloon keepers; a decision which wiJi do away with election returns being bulletined in saloons, as a means of drawing and hold inf? the thirsty. There has been a state law against keeping open a saloon on election day; this law has not been obeyed in this city heretofore; under Mayor Bosch things may be fferent.

But under this law the saloons opened up again when the polls closed at ii p. m. and the rush in the evening to hear election news and talk politics more than compensated the closed doors for twelve hours. The supreme court saya a whole day is twenty-four hours, and that the saloon keeper must keep his place closed during the whole of the twenty-four hours of election day. This decision of the court is the first decision on this section of statute and Its enforcement means a loss of thousands of dollars annually to liquor dealers and sai loon keepers, la this city the boys will have to hear the election returns in hall, and drink lemonade or eat pop- OXE of the east approaches to the suspension bridge needs being replaced with a new crossing more than it needs sprinkling.

IT is quite amusing to hear a paper talk abuut "can't afford" it and at the same time advocate a million dollar expenditure for sewerage, council is called upon to select a new constable we implore that body in the name of decency to secure a man wno will not daily disgrace the ofl ana the citv. THB pupil in our public schools who, in a composition on "the industries of Ha iiton," spoke of Greenwood cemetery as one of the most prominent, hit closer at the truth than he was probably aware of. CofNciuiAS REits is perfectly right in objecting to a switch across Sycamore street. Council will have little regard for tne welfare of the city if it permits a switch on this street, which now is barely wide enough for two vehicles to pass. EXGISEEU DII-LOS has submitted estimates for improvements in Hamilton, aggregating $171,000.

This does not include sewerage. If we understand correctly, these improvements are urgent; then it Is out of the question lo think about going deeper into debt for sewerage. STOP ISSISUATI3Q ASD PliODUCE SOJfE HARD FACTS. Up to date we have heard no argument, worthy the name, in favor of tearing down the suspension bridge and leaving the two parts of the city separated for a possible period of a year. The statement that people can go around via the Black street bridge or the lower covered bridge is too flimsy for consideration by any out who hat lived In Hamilton oyer ten months.

There ii no objection to a fine, yes, bridge at High and Main streets. In fact everybody wants to ice such a structure, but It that there are certain par who own High street property wno want to tee the butlneti of city confined toHlgb ttreet. We would like to aik, do tbeie part let Improve their Do erect bulldSngi that art an ornn- Sews to come out and give the full history of this said option; the holder of it and his purpose; we ask you to give these facts to the public and then sa that there is a desire to make thousands at the expense of the taxpayers of But' ler Come, be frank and manly on this question. It is one of great inportance to our city. The DEMOCRAT is interestec in the welfare of Hamilton; there cannot be too many bridges connecting the two parts of our city and above alt thlogs it would be a public outrage to tear down the suspension bridge until another bridge is constructed in the center of the city.

ALUHKI Of Our High School Have Their Annual Banquet. A FINE FARCE COMEDY, Banquet: HIIC! Toasts-New i'fflcers Elected la Pleas- Hiit ami Eveut. Another year has come and gone with all its joys and sorrows, its successes and disappointments, and in its cycle brought to many last evening a joyous eignth annual banquet of the Hamilton High School Alumni association. Toe banquet was held in Music hall, which was prettily decorated for the occasion with a glorious display of the stars and stripes acd potted plants. It was the most successful banquet ever given by the association.

Friends met friends again and recalled the pleasant and now memorable days of school life. Many an interesting incident was recalled, came to make the present better anc brighter; many a friendship was rekindled and the days of long ago brought vividly to mind. Thus the evening was made one full of pure, beneficial long to be remembered by all whose honor it is to be a member of the association, for truly it is an honor to be a graduate of the Hamilton high school. BUSINESS SESSION. The association was called to order by the president, Mrs.

George T. Earhart, at 9 o'clock, aod after the reading of the minutes of the last meeting by Secretary Robt. Kennedy and their approval, Treasurer Clayton A. Leiter made a partial report, showing the finances of the association to be in an excellent condition. The annual election of officers resulted in the selection of Robt N.

Shotts, president; Miss Frank E. Thompson, vice-president; Robert Kennedy, secretary; Clayton A. Leiter, treasurer. THE PROGRAM. The program of the evening- opened with an excellently rendered violin solo by Fred Bender, with piano accompaniment by Miss Matie Millikin.

On behalf of the association the president, Mrs. George T. Earhart, welcomed the class of STANFORD DEAD. Teleurajih to the WASHINGTON, D. June 21 has been received here from San Francisco stating that Senator Leland Stanford of California, died early this morning.

The response was made by Robt. Shank, of '1)3. His effort was a good one and was fully appreciated by the association.

Miss Bertha Bubenbeim, with piano accompaniment by Mrs. E. A. Belden, rendered a soprano solo in a touching manner, showing thereby much ability. "Mrs.

Pendletou's Fotir in Hand." At this point something entirely new was introduced as a part of the program It was in the way of a short five-act comedietta, with finale, arranged by Miss Lillian Estelle Weiler for tbe occasion. Much credit is due those who participated in this novelty for the ability shown by them. Eacb character was excellently sustained and the solicited much applause. It "was entitled "Mrs. Pendleton's Four-in-Hand' 1 and was adapted from a by Gertrude Franklin Atherton.

The cast of characters was as follows: CAST. Jeesica Pead'eton, a fascinating Miss Anna VauDerveer Kdltli Decker, her conndaule Miss Lillian Estelle Weiler Marie, a French maid Lillian Matthias Johu Severance, clubman aud Dr. Dan Millibin floii Clarence Treut, a politician with diplomatic aspirations "Warren Ciarc! Norton Boawell, a young author David W. Brant Edward I ednam, one of the jeunes.e dove Dr. Este Shetlia Clerk at.

the St. Christopher club W. W. Andrew In five short acts and a finale was to! the story of a fascinating widow's inter esting and amusing flirtation with fou gentlemen admirers, who all propose her, are accepted and finally rejected a easily as accepted, all discovering their discomfort that they have bee: cleverly duped. Miss VanDerveer ai the Widow Pen dleton, made a decided hit.

The blac dress suited her immensely and acted the part with the assurance ani grace and force of a professional. He: acting elicited much applause and favor able comment. Miss Weiler, as Miss Decker, never appeared to better advantage before a Hamilton audience. She carried her part with charming ease and natural ness and showed much talent. Siiss Matthias, the French maid, per formed her part and did the courtesies devolving on her duties with becoming grace and ease.

Dr. Dan Millikin, Chicken en Kifiu'b peus Potato bouletten, Cucumber sulud, Salted almonds, Finger relK Mixed pickles, Mtirroo gliices, Neapolitan Ice cream, Strawberries, Fancy cake, Cafe, Wafers, Cheeoe. Alter the serving of the supper, Toastmaster H. H. Haines made a short introductory address, full of imereit, and showing that he had the success of the association at heart.

His words were highly appreciated and eminently fitting to the occasion. As a toastmaster, Mr, Haines was a flattering success; tbe association in which he is very popular, was glad to cooperate with him, he making the banquet a success, THE TOASTS. The first toast was "Progress," re sponded to by "Wm. E. Crawford.

"New occasions teach new duties; Time makes ancient good uncouth; They must upward still and onward, Who would keep abreast of Truth." This is an age of progress as is ev: denced by almost everything about us and to keep abreast of the times must upward and onward, thus keepin our age an age of advancement an of progress. Tats progress must no necessarily be rapid, but it must be sure We must toil on faithfully, fearlessly earnestly and well. "The heights, by great men reache and kept, Were not attained by sudden flight, But they, while their companions slep Were toiling upward in the night." MISS KICHTES. Miss Bessie Rlchter had for her sub ject, "A Woman of the Nineteenth Cen tury." Miss Richter told how woman i this progressive age had been instru mental in the production of much goot how she had advanced and in her a( vance nad carried the world with her. The woman of the nineteenth centur; is the same good, noble, pure, devoted sincere and self-sacrificing woman former centuries, only she is more ad vanced and is possessed of more demon strttive energy and action.

AN EXAMPLE OP COOKERY. Sam D. Fitton, jr a specimen, as said himself," of the excellency of our )oks, bad for the subject of his toast: "We may live without poetry, music am art; We may live without conscience, and live without heart; We may live without friends; we may live without books; But civilized man, cannot live without cooks." Mr. Fitton treated his subject in an and unique manner referring jleasantly to the young lady graduates and their supposed ability to cook. His effort was highly pleasing.

"THE LATEST." "The Latest," and the last regulary assigned toast, was responded to by Miss Thompson, She spoke interest- agly of "the World's Fair, To this she referred in a very pleasing manner; her toast was full of good thoughts and was delivered in a happy Dr. Present and Past. Alston Ellis, president of the as a clubman anc banker, was at home; his make-up was excellent and his acting easy and effective. Warren Gard, as a politician, carriec out the idea with an earnestness that won him praise. David W.

Brant, ai a young author, put that careless air into execution that was extremely appropriate to the part. Dr. Este Saeehan, as a young man fond of tennis and yachting and given up to summer nutations, acted his part .0 perfection. Will Andrews made a model clerk hie hotel. He handled the tender letters lllce a veteran.

The cast was perfectly balanced and Is not too much to say that "Mrs. Pendleton's Four-tn-Hand" was the best amateur production ever given In our city. To praise one Is to praise all. Each part was as "near perfection as and conscientious rehearsing make it- Miss Weiler, one of our brilliant young adiei, la to be complimented for her ery clever dramatization of the story. The and At tbe concluilon of the comedietta, Caterer Chat.

Stroble toon arranged tables and affairs were given Into he bands of the tommastftr, lalnei, of Green Springs. Caterer Hlroble served tbe following mtnu fn au excellent nunner: THE MIXU. Tom Mo 1 with tern, Kofi ftlifll rrr.t't, ihvrbet. state university at Fort Collins, Colo, and former superintendent of our schools, wasjpresent and was called upon by the toastmaster for a few words He spoke briefly upon the public schools and the great benefits derived from them in the way of education, which is the bulwark of American institutions and American liberty. His remark concerning the high school were pointed and very truthful.

Every one was glad to welcome our former superintended jjack to his old home and all enjoyed his presence. Supt. C. C. Miller was also called upon and in a happy manner, in a forcible ant eloquent three-minute talk, held the at tention of the association and gave voice to a number of thoughts that each one cuuld carry home.

After the rendition of the program the tables were cleared away and those who so desired were given an opportunity to "trip the light fantastic toe" to music furnished by Samuel Hess, violinist, s.nc Rocco Bovo, harpist. The occasion is acknowledged by all to be one of the most enjoyable banquets ever held by the Alumni association. There was no conventionality, no formality to mar anyone's pleasure; but all mingled together, a sort of Bohemian crowd, sons and daughters of one Alma prjde, her High school. Much of this pleasant feature of the evening was due to the reception committee, Daugherty, consisting of Miss Llssa Mrs. Adam Slater and Miss Ada Fye, and to the hustling committee on arrangements- Warren Card, Mrs.

John W. Egbert, Miss Amanda Galloway, Miss Ida B. Hunter, Ben Strauss and S. D.
