THE FORUM
To the Editor of the Daily Nebraskan:
In an account of the meeting of the
University Howell Club, we learn that
there are twenty-flve "Wilson Repub-.
licans" in that organization. The ex
istence of a Wilson Republican is as
plausible as that of a white Black
bird. President Wilson represents the
highest form' of Democracy. The leg
islation carried out by the present
Congress is in strict conformity with
Democratic principles. It has been
opposed at every turn by the majority
of Republicans. The attitude and
policies of President Wilson have been
under the fire of Republican criticism
since the beginning of the administra
tion. Even the Mexican policy (both
at the times of interfering nnd stay
ing out) came in for scathing rebukes
from the Republicans in Congress and
the Republican papers. The Repub
lican party declares for principles
that are directly contrary to those of
President Wilson.
Whoever repudiates the Democratic
party repudiates its President. Who
ever endorses the President, endorses
the party and principles for which he
stands. A Republican endorsement of
President Wilson is as inconsistent

THE BUSINESS OF BEING A
STUDENT.
(From the American Educational Re
view.)
Being an undergraduate student in
the twentieth century university or
college of the United States is quite
as much an undertaking, in its way,
. as that involved in the career-making
. resDonsibillties . of the great actual
business world.

herence to a prescribed diet, the hard

hours of early retiring, the relentless
espionage of faculty scholarship re

he makes it his business.

perhaps, to every activity outside the
