Can you go to a lecture and listen to every word the professor says and realise that he is speaking with some coherence, or must you watch the campus through the window, or think about the dance this week end? The power of concentration is a rare trait to develop and a profitable one. Pride is one of the most valuable traits of character and one of the most expensive. When things are lost or found on the campus, the fact should be advertised In The Daily Nebraskan, and the articles which are found 6hould be turned in to the student activities office in the Administra tion building. The co-operation of the students with the University daily paper can create an efficiency in the lost and found world that will prove beneficial to aJL When we said that the Hughes meeting. Monday night, was a sign of the times, little did we think that those few words would in spire a search in Webster's dictionary and 6uch eloquent flow of sarcasm. What a dreary life this would be if all of us canned dictionaries around with us to aid in a common understanding of common ordinary words! As for a discussion of politics, the Forum column will have all letters that come to the office and that are printable. We would remind the enthusiasts, too, that a debate on the present issue will be held in the near future, and plenty of opportunity for the display of differences will be given at that time. ever nractlcabie. ine emo.-rnu. nartr has created since March 4. 1913 thirty thousand offices outside of the clvR service law at an annual cost of forty-fonr million dollars to the tax payers of the country.. .

FORUM Lincoln, Neb, Oct. 3, 1916. To the Editor of The Daily Nebraskan: The executive council of the Wilson club attacking your editorial, does not seem to care so much about the signs of the times as they do to refer sar castically to those students whose convictions place them in the repub lican party. To hear them talk one must believe that he alone who votes for Wilson is without sin, while he who dares to express an opposite opin ion merely show s the world how fool ish he is. Their objection is not so much that j the editor called it a "sign of the times," but that there are people in the University who cannot possess the same caliber of judgment as them selves and actually dare to organiie against them. If they would accept the Hughes club as a sign of the com ing election and meet the club as men should meet men, it is all right, but to personally pick out one or two men who are good as themselves and delib erately pronounce their convictions as "poppycock" does not seem fair to me. All one needs is a paint brush to throw i mud. JOHN WENSTRAND. Kearney Club Meeting The first meeting of Kearney club will be held next Saturday evening, October 7. in the Y. W. C A. rooms in the Temple. There will be election of officers. All former Kearney stu dents are cordially invited. Lincoln, Neb, Oct. 4, 1916. To the Editor, Daily Nebraskan: The Woodrow Wilson club in their editorial charge that the republicans have no "constructive policy." This is a common campaign argument. The following Quotation from the republi can platform will show whether their assertion is backed up by facts: Rural Credits We favor an. effective system of rural credits as opposed to the In effective law proposed by the present democratic administration. START RIGHT Have your eyes tested by our Registered Optometrist. If you don't need glasses hell gladly tell you so. Repairs promptly made. ALLETT UNL JEWELER EstaV.Hted 1871 1143 O St Rural Free Delivery We favor the extension of the rural tree delivery system and condemn the democratic administration for curtail ing and crippling it Merchant Marine In view of the policies adopted by all the maritime nations to encourage their shipping interests, and in order to enable us to compete with them for the ocean-carrying trade, we favor the payment to ships engaged in the for eign trade a liberal compensation for services actually rendered in carry ing the mails, and such further legis-1 lation as will build up an adequate American merchant marine and give us ships which may be requisitioned by the government in time of national emergency. Railroads .Interstate and intrastate transporta tion have become so Interwoven that the attempt to apply two and often several sets of laws to its regulation has produced conflicts of authority, embarrassment in operation and in convenience and expense to the public The entire transportation system of the country has become essentially na tional We, therefore, favor such ac tion by legislation or if necessary, through an amendment to the consti tution of the United States as will re sult in placing It under complete fed eral control. Economy and a National Budget The Increasing cost of the national government and the need for the greatest economy of its resources In order to meet the growing demands of the people for government service call for the severest condemnation of the wasteful appropriations of this demo cratic administration, of its shameless raids on the treasury, and of Its oppo sition to and rejection of President Taft's oft repeated proposals and ear nest efforts to secure economy and efficiency through the establishment of a simple businesslike budget ystem to which we pledge our support and which we hold to be necessary to ef fect any real reform In the adminis tration of national finances. Conservation We believe !n a careful husbandry of all 19 natural resources of the ra tion a busbandry which means devel opment without waste; use without abuse.
