WEDNESDAY, MARCH 24, 1900. Tho prosont yohr at tho UnlverHlty of Nobraska has boon characterized by tho Inauguration of more Inter-class affairs than have been dovolopod dur ing all tho past yeara of Nebraska's existence. This means that thoro will bo a.grcat IncroaHo in clasB spirit and enthusiasm It It Is not dverdonc. Thero Is almost as much danger, howovor, from overdoing a tiling of this kind as from no having enough of such events. Tho soulor class of tho University of Minnesota havo takon It Into their own hands to declaro that a certain professor in tho school Is not com petent to as a teacher and havo signed a resolution In which they declare that they will no longer rocognizo him as such. It may bo that : ho professor is not worthy of his position but it is certainly n mattor to be acted upon by the caroful doclsion of tho authorities Instead of by the snap judgment of tho students. Nebraska has had oc calon in tho past to know that such action as that taken by tho students at Minnesota may bo about as unjust as anything woll could bo. appropriate than boforo n university audienco for thoro is no class of people thnt arc so liberal in their patronage of tho thoatro as college studonts. In Lincoln especially the student patron age of tho theatres Is bo largo that it cvan havo nn Important influonco In determining tho class or plays that aro produced if It only desires to do so. Thero can bo no greater good ac complished by studonts of tho Univer sity of Nebraska than In making their influonco felt in Lincoln in bringing about a moro healthy condition of tho stage. On JLUp whole Lincoln is in much bettor condition in this roBpect than moBt other cIIIob but ovory now und then a thing appoars at tho local playhouses that can only bo distasteful to. a porson who Is nt all cultured. Tho only purpose of tho theatro is to please Us patrons. Immoral things nro not put on tho Btago to pleaBe the manager but becauso it Is bolleved thnt the audienco- demand and appre ciate such things. As soon as it is realized that such things are not wanted a moro wholesome stnte of affairs will at onco appear. If studonts of the unlvorsity would simply stay away altogether from plays that are not of a high standard their ubsonce would bo seriously felt und would havo a powerful Influence for tho good. Hero Is a slmplot and easy way for tho students to accomp lish a great reform, and It is to be hoped that In tho future Lincoln the atre managors will know that as soon aB they permit anything Indecent to go on their stngo thoy have by that act destroyed tholr university patronuge. CH get his voto in is tho dead, uninter ested one who can bo put down as clinging vorminously to his class, rath er than ns being a member of it. Best of all, tho polls aro under non partisan and ofllclal .charge. ' This elim inates not only ballot skull-duggory, but Iho covort accusations of It, which customarily follow class camppalgns and which, ovon when fabrications, do as much harm In a class us tho real. thing." University Bulletin A NEW PLAN. At Wisconsin they are trying a new plan that may prove to bo a solution of tho difficulties that are not mot simply at Wisconsin, but at Nobraska and ovory other college.

It is woll that tho question as to tho feasibility of the plan of cadet oncanipxnent which is to bo tried this spring is being thoroughly thrashed out beforehand. It, does not on the face of it seem possible that members of tho battalion can stay in camp from four in tho afternoon until nine In the morning and then bo in shape to come down to tho unlvorsity and, attend classes. Anyone who has ever spent any time In a cadet camp knows that ones physical condition is hardly such that it Is possible to qpond part of each day where tho conventions of lire aro observod., The difficulties of such a plan should be faced squarely and considered before an attempt is made to carry out such an unusual innovation. A DESIRABLE MOVEMENT, , At convocation yesterday morning Mr. Wright Lorlmor gave an oxpres sfon to a thought that Is worthy of,, careful consideration. In Bpoaklng of the degraded condition of tho Amer ican stage ho deqlared tjiat ho had confidence. In the American people and that.ho wAS'conyinced ;ihat they would not continue, t,ovtplerato on tho stage tiio fifth and rot .that has been per mitted to exist thoro.

The plan as de scribed In the Dally Cardinal is as follows: "The old scheme of election In class mooting has been inadequate for ton years. Back in 1892, whon thoro wore a couplo of hundred In a class, ft was posslblo to get thorn all togethor, un dor stross of oloctlon excitement; they could, hlBo, In a class whore everyone know evoryono else, pick a represen tative man. The election was always intelligent, even when it was factional. Today, with classes of five to eight hundred, it Is a moral impossibility to got moro than a fraction of them to gether .at the most conveniently chosen time and place. Within that fraction about half aro strangers to tho candi dates who are sprung on tljem in a burst of oratory; and the Innocent half votes, with its eyes shut, according to a pledge, given an insinuating hench man beforehand, or to the advice of the man in the next seat "Under the now.iScheme, the candi dates' aro put bof6re you a week ahead.
