Entered at the postoffice at Lincoln. Nebraska, as second class
mail matter under the Act of Congress of March 3, 1879.
"All signs, posters, and announcements will be confined to the
bulletin boards, and must be approved by the registrar. No signs,
posters or announcements of any sort will be permitted on the fences
in or surrounding the campus, on doors of buildings, on the benches or
on any other University property except the bulletin boards," accord
ing to the forty-sixth annual general catalog of the University, and
still, there are posters of all kinds all over the campus, and on the
fence outside of the campus.
"No private advertising announcements can be placed upon any
of the University bulletin boards,- and there is a private advertise
ment over the walk leading from the corner of Twelfth and R streets
to U hall, at the present moment.
"Nor is it pennissable to give out handbills or cards of any kind
at the gates of the campus" and if anyone were on or near the
campus yesterday, he would have 6een, if he did not receive "cards
of any kind."
There are University rules, just as binding as any other rule. They
should be enforced as well as other rules are enforced.
Everyone knows that the campus is far from beautiful in its
natural state of preservation, and a blazing red and white 6ign may be
a success from the advertising point of view, but it is a failure from
the aesthetic point of view.
There is a place for all advertisements and notices and if they
were put where they belong, people would form the practice of looking
in the right place for their information.
Again, the classes in journalism have had the opportunity to hear
a prominent newspaper man talk about his profession. Henry J. Allen
of WJchita. Kas., one of the most. prominent editors of the west,
addressed the journalism enthusiasts last evening, and one more brick
was laid in the foundation of the realization of the need of a Uni
versity school of journalism.
Journalism id a science and the theory improves the practice.
If Nebraska is to keep her young men and women who aspire to the
journalistic field, in Nebraska, more adequate provision for a thor
ough training in the newspaper and magazine work should be given.
And not only would she keep Nebraska men and women, but the
young people from the states west and north of Nebraska would be
drawn by the opportunity nearer home, instead of going to Missouri
or Wisconsin for their training.
Didn't you wish you were about eight years old last night, and
could play Hallowe'en pranks on all of "the gang?"

A WORD TO UNIVERSITY VOTERS
Within a short time you will be
called upon to do your duty as a citi
zen of the state and nation. The most
important consideration before the
voters of Nebraska at the coming
election is the proposed amendment to
the constitution, which if passed will
prohibit the manufacture and sale of
alcoholic liquors within the state.
This movement is at the bottom of all
movements for better government, for
preparedness and all other issues of
the present day. It is of prime import
ance in safeguarding the public health,
the most important asset any govern
Bitflt ha. It U believed that the high
intelligence of voters who attend the
University will demand that they
stand unanimous against the traffic
that demands for its continuance, a
large number of the boys and young
men of the state, e&th year. There
is no argument in favor of continuing
this traffic except from those, whose
Decuniarr interests will suffer if the
amendment passes.
This traffic is undermining the pub
lic health. It is causing a useless ex
penditure for the care of its victims
and consequently a useless burden on
the taxpayers. It is ruining many
happy homes, and putting thousands
of children at work, when they should
be in school. It has proven beneficial
to neighboring states and promises to
do the same for Nebraska. Do you
favor the continuanc f I a traffic of
which nothing good can be said and
which is to blame for so much evil?
It is believed that not a man in the
express your opinion in a way that
twill be felt.
If you intend to vote by mail, and
live in a Nebraska town where regis
tration is required, it is necessary that
you have a "Certincate oi negisira-
tion" from your home town. This
can be procured for you by another.
If you need this certificate and haven't
procured it yet, make it a point to do
so at once, so that you will not be
embarrassed on election day by the
lack of it
Remember, above all, that the cast
ing of your vote Is not a privilege but
duty to your state and nation. Do
your duty on November 7, next Tuesday.

FRANK A PETERSON
Class '05, Law '10
Democratic Candidate for
COUNTY ATTORNEY
Five hundred students of the Uni
versity of Nebraska will probably vote
in Lincoln on November 7. Many of
the candidates for public office, espe
cially in Lancaster county, are former
students of the University of Nebras
ka. Both from the standpoint of citi
zenship and of interest and loyalty to
the University of Nebraska, the stu
dents are probably anxious to learn
all they can about the progress of
former Nebraska graduates in public
life.
Mr. Frank A. Peterson, A. B., '05,
LL. B., '10, is the democratic nominee
for county attorney of Lancaster coun
ty. In the University of Nebraska,
Mr. Peterson was a member of Phi
Alpha Tau, Phi Delta Phi, Palladian
Literary society, German club and
Latin club, and was active in the work
of each society. He also interested
himself in University debate and was
a member of the University debating
team aeainst Iowa in 1905. In schol
arship he also distinguished himself.
having won both Phi Beta Kappa and
Theta Kappa No honors. Since com
pleting his college course Mr. Peter
son has practiced law with the law
firm of Mockett & Peterson In this
city.
Mr. Peterson is waging a very ac
tive and vigorous campaign npon the
proposition that the county attorney's
office should be administered as a pub
lic trust and not as a private law of
fice with the county merely as one of
its clients.
