Editorial Remarks
The clipping from the Chicago-Tribune,
printed in another column, has
one bright Bide. It makes us feel here
at Nebraska that we aren't ho bad as
wo might be. And yet we aren't so
good as we might be along giaft lines,
by a long way. By a wise choice of re
sponsible men for the various posi
tions of trust during the past fev
years graft in University has been
glowing less and less prevalent, until
now, with one exception, there is prac
tically none to speak of. But the social
graft Is just as strong as ever, and
perhaps stronger. University social
affairs still continue to bo eagerly
sought for, not for tho honor which
the management of such ought to carry
with it and which honor ought to be
well worth striving for, but only for
tho financial returns which these af
fairs usually bring. Now and then there
Is a bright and shining exception to"
tho usual, and a dance will be given
by men who put all they have Into tho
affair and allow their patrons to get
some adoquate returns. But these ex
ceptions occur only often enough to
bring out In greater contrast the de
plorable rule. While the men who ben
efit themselves at tho expense of their
fellow students are in a great measure
to blame, yet tho system which toler
ates these grafters from year to year is
at bottom at fault. Not one single
class of University organizations has a
moral right to glvo any one, two or
three men the opportunity to graft
themselves upon their schoolmates,
and any organization so acting pub
lishes Itself as standing for graft and
smirches tho fairness of Its name by
permitting It to bo used as an excuse
for individual profit. To be chosen
from a number of Uko aspiiants ub
chairman or master of ceremonies of
any University function should be re
ward enough for any truly loyal Ne-brkn.

Single or Double
Breasted Sack Suit
Our illustration slioWs two of our
most fetching styles, for young men.
The fellow standing on the car step Is
wearing our Double Breasted "Varsity"
suit. The young chap cane In hand is
wedring the same style only single
breasted. The third is good enough to
stand so that we may see the back
view of both these styles. You will
notice that the coat has silt in back
and is cut quite some longer than be
fore, while the lapels are broad. Wo
have some thirty other models in sack
suits, but we believe the "Varsity" will
be a great favorite among young men.
The New Spring Suits are selling at
$10.00. $12.50. $15.00.
$I8.00,$20.00,$22.50,
and $25.00.
Each and every line is complete in
liTTelf. No matter what your clothes
needs may be, we are best able to sat
isfy them.

Graft Again.
The Chicago Tribune has the follow
ing to say apropos to the graft evil at
the University of Michigan:
"The Btudents of tho university are
the objects of a widespread graft, ac
cording to a statement made today by
a member of the "anti-graft" faculty
committee. Students themselves, says
Prof. O. W. Patterson, are mulcting
their fellows out of large sums. Prof.
Patterson said:
" 'One member of a certain commit
tee wrote to tho manufacturer of a
commodity which his committee was
to furnish tho class. The letter In
possession of the faculty. Ho aslcs that
the manufacturer glvo his lowest bid
on tho class souvenir. Then ho asked
the company to make another bid, con
siderably higher than the first, and to
present It In formal business style, to
b? shown to the class.
" 'This boy's letter was a frank con
fession of double dealing. He says he
wishes to buy the goods according to
one contract, which is to bo a secrej.
between himself and tho manufacturer,
and to sell them according to tho fic
titious contract. Ho explains that tho
faulty is Investigating student graft,
and, that ho needs tho fake contract
for protection.
" 'The manufacturer wrote that ho
did not do business on that basis. Wo
have discovered since that this boy
made a contract with another firm.
" 'Thus far this boy does not know
tho faculty Is on his trail, for if ho
succeeded In securing two contracts
every one has kept faith. Tho faculty
would have no trouble In convincing
nine men out of ten that dishonest
methods were used to make money
out of the class, .but wo must remain
silent on this particular case, because
vc haven't the extra contract.'
"Pi of. Patterson adds that this is not
the only Instance of fraudulent con
tracts at Michigan. He does not blame
the boys. He says that the Michigan
committee, headed by Prof. A. S
Whitney, has discovered firms which
make a business, In order to secure
trade, of tempting college boys with
dishonest propositions.
"Michigan's 'anti-graff committee
began its work a year ago. This week
It. reorganized the Michlganensium, u
student year book, from which profits
of ?1,000 to $4,000 annually were made
by a coterie of less than half a dozen
seniors. It has purchased the Michi
gan Daily, a student paper, has incor
porated the Inlander, the college mag
azine In order better to supervise its
finances, and has discovered that a
gold mine of graft has existed in tho
Students' Lecture association. ,
"Up to this yeaf, -Prof. Patterson
says, It was usually run by Irrespon
sible students, who kept their accounts
on manlla paper, whicji was tossed into
the waste basket.
"In past years the lecture associa
tion has ended the year as much as
$G00 In debt, and the money has not
always been paid. This "year, under
faculty supervision, the boys have paid
$1,000 more than usual for their talent,
and at the end of tho year had $2,500
piofits. The faculty's Investigations
into former transactions has resulted
in expulsions."
