Tint Nhiikaskan would not presume
to nrtviso thu horuy-linnrictl sons of toil
of Lincoln, hut whim they, in convim
tioii nssuinl)lo,(l attempt to pass rusolu
tions denouncing Lincoln lm incss men
for en. ploying st dents wlm work for
their board, we would rise to remark that
those students who work eight bourn
it day over their lessons and eight bonis
more for their board and lodging, are as
truly laboring men as are the aforemen
tioned h h. onsof toil who discuss affairs
of state from 911. m. to H p. in. on the
shadv corner of Ulevenlh and O streets
A good deal of history has been made
in this nation during the past few weeks,
and if we but knew it we are living in
stirring time . Imoiii a hundred cities
and towns "armies of the commonweal,'
numbering anywhere from 100 to 2,o:,o
men earh. are marching to Wnsbinlnn
Coxey's army, at first a jest, has grown
to assume an aspect no longer mirthful,
but rather grave an serious. What this
movement means and in what it will end
time aloi.e can tell. And while these
armies of the unemployed are marching,
150,000 coal miners, whose earning ag
gregate over $50,000,000 annually, have
quit work, and from present aspects this
strike, involving the greatest number of
men of any in the history of the United
States, will be of long duration and per
haps entail unparalleled sufft ring before
it is finally settled. And so we say,
these are stirring times. If you, oh.
pale young man with thoi ghtful bro
have some ideas of worth and originality
upon these topics, write them up and
boil them down and scud them toTmc
Nkhkaskan.
The .Sunday edition of the morning
paper of this city is one that is unexcel
led for general literary merit by any
similiar publication this side of the
Mississippi, and Tub Nkhraskan is
tempted to ask, bow many of our stud
ents have thought of the reason why? It
takes oily a little notice to discover the
cause of thut merit to be the students of
the University of Nebraska themselves.
There is scarcely a page of the lit :ary
supplement of every Sunday's Journal
that does not contain articU-s of worth
and originality, articles displaying
thought and culture, to which are ap
pended the liunirs of our students, or
which, being unsigned, yet betray the
ear marks of University work. Watch
and see. Tin? Nhiikaskan takes a pride
111 this evident e of the tendency of our
University men and women to push to
the front 111 literary work, and is glad to
mention it as testifying both to the of
ficii nry of the work dune hi those do
partinentb to which this advancement is
mainly due, and to the fact that we have
ta cut ami brains which cv bou d to
manifest themselves, anions; our students.
The University of Nebraska is the
center of the thought and culture of the
state, and the people of Nebraska are
beginning to recognize this fact The
best young men and young women in
Nebraska, young people with brains and 1
ambition are seeking every year in great
er nunibon. those advantage, of learninu
and culture and association which our
University is so abundantly fitted to
give. Thin is as it should he and we
hope that our tudent will mention such
fact uk these to every one they see or
write to, and ask them to tell everv one
else. That is the on'y way to build up
the University.
of drill. Aside from those few whose
eyes are dazzled by the brightness of
shoulder straps either present or coming,
the great majority of the students of
whom three years drill is required, ar-i
and have been for many years, very
much dissatisfied with so long n period
of required drill. It is n suggestive fact
that just as soon as it was learned that
the opinion had hien expressed in the
faculty meeting that the students them
selves did not ask for the change, that a
petition was at once started praying for
this reduction of the years of dri-l, and
we are told that four out of five of the
numbers of the hataliion who are asked
to sign this petition can hardly write
men-names mg enougii aim onen enough
to satisfy their enthusiasm.
The fact is that thr e years of compul
sory drill is very distasteful to the great
majority of thu young men of the Uni
versity, and the onlv nasoii for which
they have submilUd quietly to this re
quirement is one with which the faculty
should lie familiar, the constant endeavor
of our students to con form without grum
bling or signs of dissatisfaction to the
requirements of the ciiriculuiu. And
so, while theie has been for a long time
widespread satisfaction among students
because of what seemed to them an un
reasonable amount of required drill,
they have dieuied it fitting, in view of
the benefits which the University is con
ferring on them, to keep this dissatisfac
tion to themsulves.
Hut now, whun the statement has been
made that there is no general objection
to three years of drill, the members of
the batalliou, in our opinion, will be
perfectly justified in letting the faculty
and regency know exactly where they
stand. And if the students should ex
press themselves with any degree unan
iniity in favor of this proposed change,
the faculty and board of regents will cer
tainly take their wishes into considera
tion. We believe that if the students
themselves once take their stand in re
questing but two eurs of required drill,
that but little reason could longer be
urged in favor of tlu retention of the
present term.
Two years of drill should certainly be
enough to fit students for that visionary
conflict. And if twoyeais are not enough
to satisfy individual students, they could
elect as many years more as would satisfy
their thirst for military glory, without
compelling their fellow students, who
have neither the lime nor tne inclination
to keep on "hufrping" with them

We understand that at a recent meet
ing of the faculty the question of recom
mending th? reduction of the years of
required drill from three to two was
voted down by about twenty to five. It
is said that it was urged at that meeting
that the members of the batalliou them
selves were not objecting to three years
of drill, and that so long as they were
satisfied the proposed change whu un
less. Thk Nkjikaskan is satisfied that the
faculty is very much mistaken if they
believe that the members and prospec
tive members of the batalliou do not
heartily favor the reduction of the year
