CLA88 POLITIC8.
Politics Is receiving moro attontion
from tho BtudontB of the university
this fall than usual, and iB creating a
keener InteroBt among thorn as to tho
outcomo of tho elections in tho varl
oub clasBOB tnan has boon manifested
In rocont first BomoatorB. This condi
tion argued well for tho election of
candidates of high ihtogrity and Btrong
oxocutlvo ability. It shows that the stu
dents aro considering tho fitness of
each candidate for holding office and
for giving a good administration to
his claBB, thoy will make the success
of tho undeserving more' difficult of
attainment.
When there is apathy In a campaign
tho BtudontB are nearly always neglect-,
lng their duty. Except in cases where'
all tho candidates are" equally highly
qualified for an oloctivo office tho list
less attitude of tho voters Is making
it possible for unfit mon 'to got offflco.
Unless the studentB have Investigated
tho qualifications of tho various mon
they will have to tako the word ot
tholr classmates regarding the candi
dates and aro llablo to bomrislnformed.
It 1b well for studontaSlo learn the
Jagta about all office seekers before
voting for thorn. Tney should look up

Director Balr slipped into town Into
last night from his. ranch in Kansas,
and, whllo ho talked little in regard to
football, took occasion to deny tho usu
al summer rumor that ho would re
sign at tho ond of this year. This
tlmo, however, he was moro emphatic.
Asked if Willie Heston, now of Detroit,
practicing law, would assist Yost this
fall, ho said!
"LaBt year tho athletic board of con
trol agreed to try and havo some of tho
football alumni back this fall. Wheth
er it will be Heston or others will be
decided at the first meeting. It is not
a question of money, for tho benefits
to bo dorived moro than overbalance
that. There are no changes to bo
inado in tho eight-game schedule ar
ranged last winter."
Princeton.
Tho first whiBtlo In tho football sea
son nt Prlncoton was blown today,
when a squaud of sixty-two candidates
lined up for a sprint across the
field under the eyes of Head Coach
Steve McClave and Jack Munn. Five
elevens were formed and a drill on
tho forward pass and elementary for
mations was hold. Trainer Flood al
lowed the men only a short period and
then withdrew thorn to the training
quarters.

promising, although tho coaches de

At tho close of tho regular convoca
tion Thursday morning, Professor J.
Lawrence Laughlin. head professor of
economics of the University of Chi
cago, was introduced to those whoBe
schedule of classes permitted them to
remain. Having Just arrived from the
train, ho had no formal talk prepared
and simply spoke Informally.
Ho declared that as he came ovor
tho prairies this morning he was
greatly impressed with the future
possibilities of this country. An era
of progress will come after this tem
porary panic has disappeared, such as
has never been known since the be
ginning of tho world. There are tre
mendous possibilities in this country,
but it Is of vital importance that great
questions of moment shall not become
the plaything of politics.

in tho football flold. For a week at a

throughout tho season about ono hun

CHANGE8 MADE IN LAW COLLEGE.
'More Rooms to Be Used This Ye"ar
The 8chool.
Many changes have occurred in tho
college of law Bince the last semester.
Tho Office of Doan Costlgan has been
moved across the hall to Room 30G
formerly used by the juniors. The li
brary has been remodeled and now
covora the whole north wing. New
tables and book shelves have been se
cured and they give plenty of room for
study.
Tho seniors occupy room 304 In tho
monumental illustration of the evil
of permitting such a delicate and im
portant problem to become the play
thing of politics. The last panic
made tho politicians think that they
must do something to help the public
in the way of banking laws. The Aid
rich bill as first framed up attempted
to place certain specified bonda on
the list of those which might be re
ceived by the government as security
for the Issuance of bank notes. Who
can decide what is a safe bond and
what Is not? Tho Houae of Repre
sentatives is much nearer the people
than the senate and an attempt was
made to really study the question and
arrive at a Just and safe bill. So far
as even good politics Is concerned,
tho Aldrich bill was not even good
politics. The present bill was re
ported by the conference committee
of the two branches of Congress and
even then could bo forced through
Congress only by withholding all dis
trict appropriations until the bill was
WE ARE WIDE AWAKE
to the fact that College Students now-a-days
demand something different in their clothing
from what is ordinarily worn by the business
man. They want ' 'stunty, ' ' ' 'snappy' ' clothes
that have a style and "go" in them that is
all their own.
We Want You to be Wide Awake
to the fact that Speier & Simons is the best
place to get College Clothes that have alt"
these new kinks and we will not charge you
double price for them either. i ,
We call your particular attention to our
hand-tailored College Suits that sell for $15,
they are beauties. We have others that sell
for $18, $20 and $22.50 the very best.
Put on a pair of REGAL SHOES--We

the connection each candidate has
-with his fellow students and find out
.whether he Is being supported by a
certain crowd because ho has prom
ised honors to its members. Perhaps
he' is well fitted to hold tho office him
self, but that the men whom ho would
appoint to positions are not the onos
who would do honor to the class. No

; And, with them taking a keen Inter
est in politics, presidential offices of
the four classes ot the university give
good r promise of being filled by men
who will have good administrations.

The college of law occupies all of
the floor except two rooms used by
the French and political economy de
partments. Several new bookB have" been added
to the law library and the students

RE8ERVED SEAT CHARGE.
The impression has become general
that the price ot reserved seats at the
football games will cost from fifty to'
eoventy-flvo cents apiece in addition
to a general admission student ticket
This will not be tho case. Manager
Eager said yesterday that for no game
would the, price of a reserved seat tb a
Nebraska student bo more than twon
. ty-five cents. No extra charge will be
made to any one for places In tho
grandstand. The pnly seats that will
be reserved are some lnrthe boxes
now being constructed in front of the
bleachers.
REPUBLICAN . CLUB OFFICER8.
M. E. Cornelius Is President For This
Year.
. A meeting of the young .republicans
of the university was held In the Tem
ple, Wednesday evening for the pur
pose of organizing a university re
publican club to take part in the pres
enjtcampaign. M. C. Cornelius was
elflftfd president with Frank Burke,,
ArEbuton, and Don Russel, as vice
presidents. C. H. Saylor was named
secretary and It. A. Van Orsdel, treast
urer. It is the Intention of the club
to have a rally on the coming Saturday,
night. Ed. P. Brown and MarUn Din
nery will speak at this rally. Edward
Gilllsple, a former university student
made a. short address at the, meeting
Wednesday,. eving." -I . '
passed. Nine hundred and ninety-
nine out of every 1,000 bankers sup
pose that the compromise bill did
what it was popularly supposed 6 do.
Law Too General.
This, however, la not true. Aa a
matter of fact, the law is so general
that the secretary of the treasury
could receive any railroad bond of
any kind for the issuance of bank,
notes, although no machinery of any
kind Is provided by the bill for .the
purpose of knowing the nature and
value of the security. There can be
uo possible doubt that the gates are
today wle open, and that you can
issue a note on any kind of security
held by a national bank, provided the
Secretary of the Treasury gives his
sanction.
It may be said that this is tho debt
that we owe to our 'democratic foTm
of government Professor Laughlin.
however, declared that ho had hopes
that the universities of the country,
whore truth is respected, will take a
rart in making such things -as the
Aldrich-Vreeland ' hill impossible.
Never beforo was there more heed
for educated economists, as nine-tenths
of the political questions of today are
economio questions. It is to be hoped
that the university students 'will mv
phaslze the iniquity of 'having such,
questions, as these settled by poliUcal
Intrigues. ' , " VV-
