Editorial Remarks
WHAT IT MEANS.
Last Friday, In commenting edi
torially on tho small rowd that saw
the football team off for the Colorado
Knmc, the Daily Nebraakan somewhat
t kepthally asked tho following ques
tions: "If the team is defeated', how large
n crowd will meet it on its return?
How much larger a crowd will meet it
if it wins glorious victory, and adds
to the fame of Nebraska?"
Yesterday we had our answer. Never
It is the character that is large enough
to rise above defeat that will win in
the end. It is the determination which
is but made stronger by adversity, that
is most durable.
Yesterday's revelation has shown
conclusively that the team has the
backing of the student body in ad
versity as well as in prosperity. With
knowledge of this no team can be de
feated except by actual force. The Ne
hraskan believes the Corn hunkers know
the spirit that backs them up. Then, is
a piedlction out of place? Minnesota
and Iowa and Illinois are as good as
defeated.
FRESHMAN PROTESTS.
Does Not Agree With Letter in
Saturday's Nebraskan.
The following effusion, Inspired ap
parently by a communication in Satur
day's Nebraskan. seems to overlook
the provision under which we publish
letters or communications. We can
assume no responsibility whatever for
letters or communications, or the senti
ments expressed in them. Opinions ex
pressed in our editorial columns we
expect and desire to stand for, but wo
are no more responsible for the con
tents of Saturday's "communication"
than we are for the contents of the
one we gladly publish below:
With the kind permission of the
editor, and indulgence of the many
patrons of this worthy organ, issued
in the interest of the student body, the
wtiter wishes, in the interest of the
Fieshman class, to thank very beaitily
the "Junior and other peaceably in
dined upper classmen who will not
s-tand for the despotism of the Sopho
mores." Also to express their appro
bation of the fact that, "no Sopho
mores are to bo admitted to the meet
ing, and the Freshmen will be afforded
a fair opportunity to organize "
The inombeis of the Freshman las
are rejoicing over the fact that "eei
one has begun to marvel and wonder
over the Freshman class," for public
interest is the hand-maid of honesty

has any team at Nebraska, victorious
or defeated, been accorded so grand
an ovation as that which greeted
the defeated, disheartened Cornhuskers
on their return from Colorado. Not
een the magnificent celebration that
followed the famous victory over
.Minnesota two years ago equaled
in 'genuine enthusiasm and real college
spirit yesterday's remarkable demon
stration. No one can question, who
haw It, tho existence ot" a real college
spirit at Nebraska.
As to the defeat, then, we are willing
"o acknowledge it. The exchange has
' tleen more than equal. Colorado has
won a iloubtfu victory Nebraska has
experienced such a revival of college
spirit and determination as could never
have resulted from any victory. Vic
tories almost beyond belief had al
ready been ours, yet college spirit had
seemed to be a thing of the past. It
took a defeat technical to be sure, hut
a defeat nevertheless to bring out the
latent enthusiasm of the Cornhuskers.
and success. And in this instance with
out the expenditure of energy, which
has been reserved for a more useful
purpose.
Those who are solicitous ver the
"severe critk'isnrofthe university pub
lic because of our snail-like pose (pace)
"will remember tho race of the hare
and tho snail." Who won? Remember
the unplanned campaign a box full of
caps on (Ire and a sore bunch 'of
Fresh ies.
If the anonymous author of tho "May
Organize" article had been a careful
thinker, he would not have used the
expression, "were it not for the numer
ous strange faces on the campus no
one, etc," meaning that no one would
know that a Freshman class existed if
it was not for the n.ew faces. He would
not have said this, had lie thought, for
many of the new faces are those ol
men who,- long ago, have "shaken the
high school dust from their feet and
havo been in other university band
wagons, "but are here taking post
graduate work. Some have succeeded
in landing Jn the upper classes and all
of these having fought the good fight,
thereby earning that dignity which aU
ways replaces that feeling which seems
to be destined to last-en itself upon
those who brave the Freshman squalls,
nnd ford the turbulent river, but which
wears off with the haughty mien of the
Sophomoie, might feel disposed to give
vent to their anger and avenge theni
manselvos upon an unworthy upper
c lasrsman, it lie would come out of his
thell. Don's accuse them all of "drag
ging" their feet!
The Freshman class feels that the
aiticle extant in The Daily Nebraskan
of October 8 Is unworthy the signature
of a Junior, and if it would' not savour
oi unfairness it might be possible,
from the contents, to assume that the
slanderous paragraphs were the scum
ol an effervesing brain of one of our
ti lends with "bulldog tenacity whose
tecord of achievements stands un
tarnished in tho history of our institu
tion." What Junior would boast of a Spoil's
"untarnished achievements" at the ex
I ense of the honor of his own class?
What philanthropy!
What Junior would be so inconsist
ent as to speak of overriding past tra
ditions." while committing the sin in
slinging such beautiful mud at the
Freshmen, and spreading the wing of
protection over their "burned cap"
friends? Why such boasts as "you'll
bo a sorry looking bunch when the
Sophs get through with you," if you
haven't the moral courage to step into
the arena and meet us faco to face?
Come out ajidsaii under your own
flag! Don't depend on the Juniors!
"Where is your energy?" Don't rest
on your laurels and pat yourself on
the back as '-record-breakers" and then
go "moping" around with Junior capes
on! The Freshmen might think your
are "greenhorns."
