WAKE FOREST COMMENCEMENT.
It was a pleasure to attend Wake
Forest commencement last week.
It was up to the usual high standard
for that institution. On Monday night
Judge Montgomery, of the Supreme
court, delivered a lecture before tbe
law class.
On Tuesday night the alumni ad
dress was delivered Dy E. E. Hilliard.
Wednesday at 10 :30 o'clock Presi
dent E. M. Andrews, of Brown Uni
versity, delivered the literary address.
His audience was a fine one and bis
theme was well chosen "Character in
Higher Education." It was pronounced
by all a very fine discourse. President
Andrews enjoys the reputation of being
one of the most" gifted men of the
anrt his address sustained the
Ul&UlCT) -
reputation.
Woflnoartnv Tiieht. Rev. W. R. L.
Smith, D. D., pastor of the Second Bap
tist church ot Richmond, delivered tbe
baccalaureate sermon before the grad
natinT l-ias. A maemficent audience
' greeted the preacher and the sermon
was ol a high orded, and was regarded
by all as strong and powerful. Dr
Smith's reputation suffered none in
ic effort, for his ssermon was well re
ceived by the vast audience and would
oi itself place him among the great
preachers of bis time. -
Thursday was the students' day

good time.
NOTES.
On Wednesday afternoon, at a mass
meeting in the Pbilomathesian hall,
Prof. J. B. Carlyle, for the family, pre-
eented tbe Philomathesian society with
the portrait of tbe late Miss Eya Belle
Simmons. The presentation speech
was beautiful and touching. Prof. C.
E. Brewer, for the society, accepted the
portrait in a beautiful speech of tender
reference to the subject and the donors.
Miss Simmons was the daughter of
the lateProf. W. G. Simmons, and took
tbe regular course mWakeForest,with a
class of young men, graduating with
high honors a few years ago. She was
the only female member of either of the
literary eocieties,having joined the Phi.
society about the time she finished hea
course at college taking the full degree
ot membership and being' en trusted with
the secret of the mystic word "Sentram"
like the iale members. The scene of

beautiful but sad, Miss Simmons hav
ing died a few weeks ago in her strong
and vigorous young womanhood.
Whereas, the People's party was or
ganized to remove the causes that pro
duce hard times in the midst of plenty
by overthrowing the dominion of the
sold ring and its allied trust and mo-
noplies, and by restoring our govern
ment on the great fundamental princi
pies of good government advocated by
Jefferson, Jackson and Lincoln.
Whereas, to-day rank and file of all
parties, (including a large majoiity of
the voters of the United States) un
equivocally agree with us on the great
fundamental question involved and the
results for which we have constantly
striven, and
Whereas, the only difference between
this great major' ty of patriotic voters
is as to questions of detail and method
now therefore,
Resolved 1st. That we most earn
estly endorse the address recently is
sued by the national chairman of the
People's party, and the open letter of
Hon- W. J. Bryan in the New York
Journal urging an honorable and har
monious co-operation of all who oppose
the domination of gold and monoply,
and who favor the overthrow of the na
tional bank and railroad influence in
controlling legislation.
Resolved 2d. That in the coming
State election, we invite the patriotic
co-operation of any party or faction of
a party, who favors the above general
principles and who will co-operate with
-us to secure the following result, viz :
1. To elect nine free silver and anti-
mnnonnlv congressmen
2. To elect six judges of ability and an(1 une(lual in its bardens
high character, and free from partisan
bias.
3. To elect twelye solictors, fearless
and impartial.
4. To elect an anti-monopoly Legis
lature pledged to the following meas
ures, viz :
A. A legislature opposed' to the de
monetizauon ot silver bv private cn-
tract, and which will enact legislation
to put a stop to the givins: and taking
of gold notes and mortgages.
B. A Legislature opposed to govern
ment by injunction, and which will
enact sufficient legislation including a
license law similar to the Wisconsin
statute, to etreciuaiiy prevent the re
moval to Federal courts all cases which
should he tried in our State courts.
C. A Legislature opposed to the 99

road, and which will use all lawful and
legitimate means to set the same aside
The Democratic party of North-Car
olina, in convention assembled in Kal-
eigh, N. C, on thisday, May 26, 1898,
do hereby approve, endorse and ratify
the last Democratic National and State
platform, and pledge our earnest sup
port to the principles therein expressed
We denounce the Republican party
for tbe passage of the Dingley tariff
bill, which has increased the burdens
nf taxation unon the consumers and
giyen the trusts and monopolists great
er power to rob the people.
Believing that under our present
methods of Federal taxation more
than three-quarters of our Nationa
revenues are paid by people owning
less than one-quarter ot the property
of the country, we protest against such
inequality and injustice, and in order
to remedy to some extent this great
wrong, we favor an income tax, and
favor ail constitutional methods to
sustain it.
We denounce the , Republican party
for the defeat of the Teller resolutions
declaring our National bonds payable
in silver as well as gold, and denounce
it for its determined purpose of more
thoroughly fastening the single gold
standard upon our people, and for its
avowed hostility to the free and un
limited coinage of silver, as well as
gold, at the ratio of 16 to 1, into full
legal tender money.
We denounce the Republican party
for its determination to issue bonds at
this time, and we denounce the Repub
lican war tax bill which lately passed
tbe House of Representatives as unjust
unneces-
sary ana vexatious, ana weaemana inai
the silver seignorage be coined ; that
an income tax be levied, and that the
Secretary of the Treasury be authoriz
ed to issue the necessary amount of
full legal tender greenbacks, or United
States Treasury notes, in order to meet
the expenses of the war with Spain and
to supply the revenue deficit under the
Dingley bill.
While we deplore tbe war with Spam,
we pledge our earnest support to the
Government in all honorable ways to
effect a speedy and successful conclu
sion of hostilities.
We denounce the scandal, extrava
gance, incompetency and corruption of
the present Republican State adminis
tration.
We denounce all enactments of the
last two Legislatures by which cities
and towns in the State have" been turn
ed over to nesrro domination, and we
by Hpn. William J. Bryan in the last
National campaign for the success of
our party and the principles of our
platform.
We call attention to the wise, eco
nomical, honest and honorable admin
istration of the affairs ol our State for
twenty years prior to the present Re
publican administration, and promise
the people a return of wise, honest,
economical and honorable administra
tion under Demacratic success. We
call upon - every believer in honor,
honesty and economy, upon every ad
vocate of white supremacy, upon every
advocate of equal and iust taxation,
upon every advocate of tbe income tax
and opponent of plundering tariff taxa
tion, upon every advocate of the re

Key West, Fla., May 28. It is now
almost certain that Commodore Schley
has the Spanish fleet bottled up in tbe
harbor of Santiago de Cuba. There is
so little doubt about it that the naval
campaign is proceeding upon the as
sumption that Admiral Cervera is in
capable of doing any harm. Within
a few days, the exact conditions of San
tiago de Cuba wiil be known without a
shadow of doubt.
In spite of assertions to the contrary
Commodore Schley was not absolutely
sure of his game when be last commu
nicated with Rear Admiral Sampson
and the commodore will net take act
ive steps to block up the entrance of
Santiago harbor until he is perfectly
certain that Admiral Cervera's ships
are inside. However, he may have
done this already, as Commodore
Schley's last communication, forwarded
Thursday, only reached Rear Admiral
Sampson yesterday.
The commodore stayed three days at
Cientneg03. He signalled to his ships
"I believe the Spanish fleet is in the
Harbor. un this belief a message
was sent to the American admiral.
The details, if Commodore Schley
found out that he was' mistaken are
not yet known. At any rate, acting on
tbe admiral's instructions! the commo
dore then inoyed east; arriving outside
Santiago de Cuba on Wednesday morn
ing, May 25th.
The topography of Cienfuegos and
Santiago de Cuba is almost identical.
Both harbors are about six miles long,
with narrow entrances about 300 yards
wide and protected by highlands. A
whole fleet could he in tbe harbor of
either place and not be visible from the
outside.
After his experience at Cienfuegos,
it is probable that Commodore Schley
was very conservative in deciding
whether or not he had caught Admiral
Cervera. From the tons of his dis
patches it is evident that the commo
dore soon gained much second hand
and external evidence fthich pointed
to Admiral Cervera's presence in the
inner harbor. This evidence was ap
parently strong enough to make tbe
commodore feel certain the object of
bis trip had been accomplished, but in
view of his previous experience, he
woule not risk'a decisive statement un
til further ascertaining the fact for
himself.
Before this dispatch is published it
is likely that Commodore Schley has
sent some vessel into tbe entrance of
the harbor of Santiago de Cuba, or has
obtained from'a reliable source ashore
information as to the exact number
and tbe names of the Spanish warships
sheltered by the hills about that place.
SANTIAGO POOBLY PROTECTED.
Contrary to the generally expected
opinion, the harbor ot Santiago de Cu
ba is poorly protected. Like Havana
and San Juan de Porto Rico, it has
its Morro castle, which is even a better
target than those ol Havanna and San
Juan. The only danger to be feared
is from the mines which .have been
laid in the channel ot Santiago since
war was declared. But, countermining
would probably render these mines
harmless, should it prove desirable for
Commodore Schley's ships to enter the
harbor. Such a step however, is un
likely. It may be noted that since the
commencement ot the naval operations.
tbe moral effects of the mines has
been great. ihis condition promises
to continue and will probably mark the
naval operations to a greater extent
than ever imagined in the past.

MODES OF PATRIOTISM.
The prospects for tbe institution are
fine and tbe mark set for next .year is
300 students.
The Summer School which will open
; notro sinn, promises to m
these resolutions to the chairman
tbe populist executive committee."
Philadelphia Becord.
When a war breaks out so many and
so varied are the forms in which love
of country manifests itself that it is
quite impossible to enumerate them.
All cannot go the front it they would.
Many cannot pass tbe examining sur-.
geon ; many more are above or below
the age of enlistment, while many can
better serve their country in some other
capacity than by carrying a musket.
Collis P. Huntingdon shows what "kind
of stuff his patriotism is made ot by
charging the Government two prices
for transporting troops to Manila In his
ships. Others who cannot go to war
themselves are willing to sacrifice all
of their wives' relations, and still others
show their love of country by securing
commissions for their sons and nephews
in the quartermaster and commissary
departments of the military service.
Tbe abolition ot sutlersbips in tbe
army has deprived many another aspir
ing patriot ot a profitable place.
But by reason of their sex more than
half of the population are debarred of
the privilege of taking up arms for
their countiy. The women of America,
however, are at no loss for effective
means of manifesting the intense pa
triotism which animate? their bosoms.
n every camp of the army, from Chick-
amauga to Tampa, the soldiers are re
ceiving substantial proofs of tbeir love
and tender care. While some are nurs;
ing the sick in hospital, others are
busily engaged in providing for the
comforts of tbeir brethren in tent and
on the march.
In the midst of these practical proofs
of the universal patriotism of Americ
an women in this war it was to be ex
pected that sentiment would take a
flight beyond the ordinary range, and
we learn that right here in Philadelphia
a society of women is in process of
brmation in which each member is
pledged to wear no more Parisian cos
tumes and millinery. The French
have certainly been saying some very
saucy things about us, especially the
yellow journals of Paris, which supply
gossip to the loungers of the boule
vards. This proposed boycott would
serve 'em just about right, provided
that it should hit the right mark. Rut
