Staff editorials.
For some tlmo It has been the cus
tom among those In charge of Uni
versity anu class dances to endeavor to
make as much money as possible out
of the affair and to run the dance with
tho solo idea of making money. In a
private dance this may be all right,
but when persons are chosen by a class
official to conduct an affair of this sort,
It Is an Injustice to the class to have
the dance run under such circum
stances. The Bystem of making the
class directly responsible for all debts
contracted and of receiving the sur
plus Into Its treasury has been tried
and has so far proved unsuccessful.
No one Ib hold responsible and as a re
Biilt the class Ib loft In debt. It Bhould
be the aim of tho chairman and the
master of ceremonies to conduct the
affair with the greatest possible credit
to tho class. A movement in this di
rection was Btarted at the last social
function of tho University, and It Is to
be hoped that the movement will be
continued.
One of the moBt discouraging mat
ters with which the management of
The Dally has to combat is the taking
of papers by those who are not entitled
to them. Under tho present system it
is necessary to rely wholly upon the
honor of tho students, and student
honor Beems to be a little bit subject
to criticism. It would seem that, after
the lato reduction In subscription
price, every person who really de
sires to read the paper could afford to
pay for It, but there are still some
who prefer to havo someone else pay
for them and It is usually the onos
who are best able to pay who refuse
to do this. Not only are you commit
ting downright theft, but you are plac
ing tho management of the paper In an
embarrassing position with its sub
scribers. It la a gross injustice to
those who pay for tho privilege, they
do not always receive.
Senior Sketches.
The personal sketches of the seniors
will bo written In this method: A
list of the membership will be accessi
ble at the Y. M. C. A. rooms at con
vocation period the remainder of this
week. Each Benior will be required
to evolve tho sketch of one of his
class-mates. Perfect freedom of his
choice given. Please report at onco
and have your name as well as that
of the one upon whom your literary
endeavors are to be lavished, duly
checked. COMMITTEE!.
SENIORS VS. JUNIORS.
Intellectual Contest Between the
Classes Creates Enthusiasm.
Thq rauch-talked-of Senior-Junior
debate will be held In Memorial hall
tonight. Great rivalry exists between
the two classes and their representa
tives have devoted a great deal of
time and energy to the careful prepara
tion of their arguments. The mem
bers of the teams have done their part
and all that Is needed to mrtke the
&ffajr a great success la a large at--feudarico
tonight.
It is hoped that these class debates
:yftl be supported, because they are
;nbt only a great boneflt to the persons
.'participating and to the classes, but
..they will do much for debating In gen-
' oral. For a great many years inter-
claBathletltrxon teats have been sue-
eessfully'carrie.d1ut and there is no
valid reason whyln intellectual con
test should not receive the proper Blip
port. From preflent indications the mem
bers of the Senior and Junior clauses,
especially, as well as BtudentB in gen
eral, will come out and hear a good
debate this evening. The publicity
phase of the trtiBt question will be
discussed. The admission Is but 10
cents to those who nre not holders of
season tickets.
DEBATING SQUADS MEET.
Second Preliminary for the Inter
state Teams.
The second preliminary debate was
held yesterday In Memorial hall from
5 to 6 o'clock. The speakers on the
compulsory arbitration squad were
L. C. Llghtner and O. M. Peters. On
tho trust squad, J. M. Paul, F. M.
Hunter and J. C. McReynolds took
part. The Judges were Professors
Fogg, Taylor and Rosa.
The trust squad met for a two-hour
conference with Professor Fogg Mon
day evening.
ThoBo who won out In the first pre
liminary debate were divided Into
squads and discussed different phases
of i-o same question or different ques
tions entirely. From these squads will
be choBen the men who are to repre
sent Nebraska in the Inter-stato de
bates. This vigorous training In squad
practice Is not only for the benefit of
the debaters themselves, but also to
satlBfy the Instructors that men are
chosen for their appropriate places on
the Intor-state teamB. Those on the
various squads are working Industri
ously and wo shall, without doubt, bo
gratified to see developed from this
material teams that will again swoop
tho fields and bring victory home to
Nebraska.

A i9 means of obtaining material
for track teams has recently been in
stalled at Northwestern university. At
an athletic conference a few days ago
a "draff rule was adoptod. Accord
ing to this rule a personal canvass of
all material within reach will be made
for men to train for the track team.
Anyone who is selected for this squad,
will be excused only under condition
that he be able to furnish good and
valid reasons why It Is impossible for
him to train for the team.
Whether this method can be suc
cessfully carried out or not remains to
bo Been. If so a better track team
will evidently be the result There
will be much more material to pick
from, aa many men who would other
wise have been indifferent will come
out and train.

Profeseor Caldwell's recently pub
lished text on "The Civil Government
of Nebraska" presents a number of
new features In classification and or
ganization of material. The relations
of the citizen to the federal, Inter
state, Btato and local governments are
rendered easy of comparison by tho
convenient and skillful manner In
which they are co-ordinated and clas
sifieda feature that other civil gov
ernments rather neglect. Great pains
have been taken to show the part that
the nation plays In Nebraska, and tho
part Nebraska plays In the nation, the
relation of state to state, tho relation
of tho state and of tho "local units"
(township, county, etc.) to tho indi
vidual, and tho relation of the state
to "local units." One of the most
notable features Is the harmonious ar
rangement of material. The work will
bo used as tho appendix to tho Nebras
ka edition of Peterman's Civil Government

Yesterday's Exercises:
Rev. J. L. Marsh, of All Souls' Uni
tarian church, delivered yesterday
morning's convocation talk from a
paragraph written by Huxley. "A de
sire for truth," "a fanaticism for ver
acity" (which Mr. Marsh defined as a
truthful report of that which Beems to
the student true,) "an ethical principle
which guides conduct" and "an awe
and reverence for that which lies be
low the surface of things," were the
points which Huxley made emphatic
in the quotation which was expounded.
These things, together with a willing
ness to retrace one's path when It
proves a false one, Mr. Marsh regarded
as the assentlals of education. Rev.
Eason of Holy Trinity conducted the
devotional services and MIbs Elche,
Mrs. Hagenow and Mr. Kimball played
a trio for violin, 'cello and piano.

ing, Ib a moBt skillful hunter. The
museum of the University of Kansas
contains a large number of specimens
which ho has brought down with his
rifle In the Rocky Mountain region.
He has secured a collection of moose,
some twelve or fifteen In number,
which Is one of the finest to be found
anywhere and a very rare group of
Rocky Mountain goats. He has also a
single specimen of the American buf
falo for which he has been offered
$6,000 by Harvard University. There

well known battle between General
Custer and the Indians. When this
horse died In 1892 the government
turned this specimen over to Professor
Dyche. It was mounted under his su
pervision, and afterwards Bhown at
the World's Fair In Chicago, along
with the exhibit from the University
of Kansas, of which Professor Dyche
was In charge. No one who 1b inter
ested In popular science should fall to
hear the account of his trip to northern
Greenland. Admission free.
Tho library has made arrangements
for securing all tho decennial publica
tions of the University of Chicago.
These consist of a Berles of twenty
five volumes, which were Issued dur

The legislative committee having in
charge state farm affairs visited at
the agricultural college the middle of
last week, preparatory to making a
trip of Inspection and comparison to
the Iowa agricultural college at Ames,
