80MEBODY BLUNDERED.
With u startling headline the last
Issue of the Lincoln Post announces
that cabs huvo not been abolished at
NebniBka because tho "agitation was
waned from without rnthor than from
within tho sacred precincts." It
launches forth in a tirade of consid
erable length declarliiK there will be
no nioro Btreet cars for the " retty
oo-eds." At InBt It closes with a
prayer to. the legislature to Bottle the
" question once TOntll; r -
If the author of tills strange crcut
tme would investigate conditions at
tho university he would discover
irtany tilings that would prove very
enlightening, and It is too bud he has
refrained from doing so For such a
length of time. Cnbs have been
abolished for this year and have not
been extonslvely used at any of the
fonnals glvon so far. A fow alumni

and students who have a great way to
come still lnslBt on going In the fash
ionable vehicle. If they havo the
money and are willing to pay the
price, who hos twj right to stop them?
In order to curb the right guaran
teed each man to the pursuit of life,
liberty and happiness, the Post goes
so "far- as t,o aslc the legislature to
pass a blue law of the real old New
England variety. It Is going to inako
this institution democratic by pre
scribing strict rules of conduct for
nil functions and all occasions. Has
the legislature tho right to say that
cabs shall bo used? Clearly It linB.
not, and the converse Is bo absurd
thnt It Is really surprising any one
should think of It. Tho cab question
belongs Btrlctly to tlieunlverslty. This
year It has seen fit to put the Btrfmp
of disapproval on their use and tho
move has been successful. There is
no need for any legislative Interfer
ence and none Is wanted.
REGISTRAR'S INTERFERENCE.
When E. M. Rutlege, assistant reg
Istrar, dismissed the meeting of tho
freBliman ciass culleTt-for-the-Tiurpoae"
of electing a 'president, ho took a
stand which should recoivo the hearty
support of tho entire university pub
lic. It stands as a declaration of tho
authorities that rotten politics ' will
not he tolerated under any circum
stances. There was no collusion Willi
either faction of the class whatsoever,
and It was the only course that could
safely be pursued at the time.
On bis arrival at tho Temple, .Mr.
Rutlege was confronted by a delicate
situation. The theater was nearly
filled with a wild, disorderly' crowd
that would pay no attention to the
presiding ofllcor. It was nothing
short of a mob. There were many In
the assembly who had no right to bo
there, but It would have been most
dinicult to tell who they were. To
put them out wus an impossibility and
so the meeting was dissolved. '
TIiobo who aro making charges of a
"fr.ame-up" Bhould look to their own
conduct. Every honest mun "Knows
that a satisfactory election could not
have been held. Who wns the cause
of the upper classmen being present,
no one knows, but these men should
have acquired enough self-respect by
thlB time to Btny away from elections
where they do not belong.
THE OPEN MEET.
Compared with tho Charter day
meets of the pas't, the one yesterdny
was a .grand succobs. Factional feel
ing was not to be noticed anywhere,
und the good natured rivalry that ex
isted among the different contestants
made tho events lively and Interest
ing. That the meet wns open to all
students who could qualify as amateur
athletes Is the real cause of its suc
cess. Charter day Is a university day and
should be takoji advantage of In a
way that will foster the greater Ne
braska spirit. This can not be ac
complished by dividing the school into
taoUonB--and-Jiajjp.g them contend
against each other. Such a course has
a strong tendency to create guerilla
warfare and as a result the great pur
poBe of the day is lost sight of. Tho
open meet is n succesB and seems to
have solved a question that has been
puzzling us for some time.
