Tho Nobraskan'B heading yesterday
morning, "Base Ball Wins Out Mili

ing." was misleading and likely to
produce the Impression that tho mili
tary department had made some con
cessions to athletic Interests. It Is in
sisted that tho ruling announced vras
merely In pursuance of government or
ders, and not In any way Influenced by
a" tegard for athletic Interests. Tho
Nebraakan apologizes. In the hurry
of the midnight make-up tho headline

more than is Its due. The commandant
has made no concessions, and, so far
as an inquisitive reporter has boon
able to learn, docB not lntond to make
any.
With all dim -respect to tho new
head of thlB department, it may bo re
marked In passing that ho haB very
high Ideals of his work, and insists
upon an attention to it which is a little
aggravating to Uiobc who are interested
in other lines of University activity.
Tho military may be Important, but It
is hardly the whole push, and even its
enthusiasts can scarcely hope to be
forgiven on unreasoning arbitrariness
that yields no explanation for radical
departure from established customs, or
a' hazarding of other University Inter

KENSINGTON" SUITS
Hereafter the word "Kensington"
will stand for the very best in men's
suits. This is the same make of suits t
we sold last season that caused so
much favorable comment because of i
the way the coats kept their shape.
They possess more tailoring art, more
style, than you will find in any other f
make. Many of Lincoln's best citi
zens are wearing them today many t
more are going to wear them the com- 4
ing season. We are selling them at T
$18.00, $20.00, $22.50 and $30.00.
Lincoln's best tailors can't equal
them for fully ten dollars more.

Minnesota Dally: A threatening
quiz, sprung without warning on tho
sophomore medic cIobb, brought about
a small revolt yesterday. Tho class
has felt for some time tnat more was
expected of its membera than lay with
in the possibility of human beingB to
perform. YeBterday in the histology
laboratory tho oBBlstantB passed pa
pers for a quiz Just before time to
leave. Pandemonium at once broke
loose and the class gathered in small
groupB and discuBBed the ways and
means of entering an effective protest,
and then adjourned to the amphithea
tre, whore they drew up their griev
ances in the form of a resolution and
chose a committee to present them to

The American academy, high school
and college were all founded on models
not designed for the special benefit of
the agricultural classes. That all of
thoeo schools have an important work
to perform every one will admit, but
this admission should not obscure the
fact that our bint? school of agriculture
1ms a moBt important field of work
which the olher Bchools can not fill.
In the Bchool cf agriculture the student
receives practical Instruction of great
vnlue and this instruction is imparted
in buck a way ob to awaken In the
student's mind a love of nature and of
truth. The our.g farmer sent out by
the echool is ulready showing to his
neighbors that his education can be
put to immediate practical use. Such
a farmer will naturally become a lead
er In his community. His sound eco

contempt for artificiality will win for
him the confidence of the public. This

Nebraska depends almost entirely on
the character of the men who till the
soil. There are now over ono hundred
thoupand farms In the state. In a com

have reached one hundred and fifty
thousand, and the rural population will
have reached the million mark. When
Uench of these farms 1b dominated by
the IdealB of the school of agriculture,
wo can feel assured that tho welfare of
tho state will rest on the firmest and
most permanent basis of which we
have any knowledge.
