This was evident to the casual observer. Our men worked hard, but against great odds as was shown during the debate. Prof. Hodgman desires to say that In printing his reply to a criticism of tho Lincoln Evening News upon his vhnpol rending lttt Friday morning, that jviper lias inserted two negatives in tho next to the last paragraph where neither sense nor regard to the tn th will permit them to remain. In America," nnd Vrof. Norton as do nounclng tho f. H. government us "boorish." it is apparent from news paper reportH of tholr speeches to the students at Harvard, that either the gentlemen have been mlseoustrued, or that they lack tho ordinary Instincts of tho American citizen. If mioh speeches, as are attributed to these men, aro the product of much learning and culture, then surely "a litUc learn ing is a good tiling." One feels like asking tho learned professors to please transfer their allegiance to some coun try xvheru there aro gentlemen and where the statesmen and oflliinls are not all "boors." Possibly Spain would suit their aesthetic taste. No man can become too great to bo above owing allegiance to his country. The utter ctherialncss of political and sot lal theories is apparent at tills time. Harvard will surely nut benefit in the iuI:hIm of patriotic men on account of thl stand by her president, and the ,vo tug man imbibing such sentiments is far worse off than if he were In to tal Ignorance of the subject. Such sen timents seem sacrcllgtons to niitl null ty and are like the scolYcry of the. atheist. dear cut logic nnd team work of Ne braska, Our boyn wish this to he said of MIh sourl. From the point of xlexv of cour tesy and hospitality, both students and faculty did everything In their power to inako our Iniys feel at home. Ne braska's baseball boys who were there at the same time, backed the debaters to the tlnlsh.

We can not convolve of two words being inserted byaecident in such convenient places. Such conduct is unworthy of any paper above the grade of the "yel low" journals nnd should be most heartily condemned. The paper wns wrong from the first nnd should have admitted it as gracefully ns possible. We could then have credited it with ho.iesty. Tomorow is field day.

We clip the following from the Kan sas University Weekly: The fielding of the whole Nebraska team was throughout the game posi tively brilliant. In the thirteen long innings only two errors are charged against them. The work o. their out field was the fastest ever seen here considering the heavy condition of the field. The fielders covered nil kinds of ground and threw as hard aim as true as if the balls had lieen shot out of Commodore Dewey's rifle guns. Prob ably the star play of the whole game wns Bliss' running entt'h of Kills long drive to left center in the tenth inning. The hit looked good for three bases and with Sample on first would have won the game. The men in the infield too presented a stone wnll front. Noth ing got by Kindlcr at second who ac cepted eleven chances and what didn't come into his territory Wells and Cau gill gobbled. Bliss led the isitors at the bat with two home runs and a sin-gl". President Elliott and Prof, Norton of Harvard have won for themselves n good deal of unenVialnble newspaper notoriety, on nccount of their attitude on the war question. President Elliott is quoted as sin- mr that, "thore nre no real crentlemen MISSOURI-NKHRASKA OKHATK. Tho first of tho Missouri-Nebraska debates" wns held i iT t licchaJHl'of""t lie State University of Missouri nt Colum bia. May 4. The question which was discussed was the annexation of Ha waii, the Missouri boys ftixoring an novation and tho Nebraska boys op posing It. Missouri based her arguments en tirely upon the commercial and strat egic value of the Islands and urged an nexation solely from that point of view. In that phase of the argument they quoted freely from l.oriu Thurs ton's pamphlet favoring annexation. Nebraska contested each and every point in regard to the strategic and commercial necessity, and further ar gued that, admitting the aluc of the islands as such, it still is incumbent upon the affirmative to prove that we should now thrown aside the present policy of independence for the islands, under which they do have some Im portance, and substitute for that an nexation. Upon this argument as a founda tion Nebraska established a series of fundamental propositions: (1) That annexation is not a nation al necessity. i) That a dangerous precedent will oe established. CI) That such a plan is impractica ble and unconstitutional. ( I) That there is no provision in our political system for the control of such possessions. O) That the inhabitants of Hawaii arc undesirable. (0) That the Hawaiians are unwil ling to be annexed. (7) That all commercial and strat egic advantages are already secured by treaty. (S) That Hawaii is economically de pendent on U. S. (J) That n.ir material problems de mand solution. The University of Missouri can Ik? justly accused of inuxcusiioie negli gence, in regard to the selection of judges for the debate. According .o arrangement Chancellor Macl.can was to have chosen one judge from Missou ri, and Chancellor .Ic.sm.' of Missouri, in turn, was to have chosen one judge from Nebraska. Then botli together were to hae chosen the third judge outside of both states. Chancellor Mac Lean did his duty promptly, but. Chan cellor .Jesse did absolutely nothing, nor did the dehatinir association of Missouri notify us of the fact, till our representatives arrived in Columbia. It was then too late to obtain consti tutional judges and two had to ,,e chosen from Columbia, which is a town of nlioiit four thousand inhabi tants and run by the students. Another point in which the Missouri people took advantage of our repre sentatives was in the statement and interpretation of the question. In their correspondence thex agreed sp-cifically to the interpretation that tin- U. S. should annex Hawnii. When how oxer the six debaters were called in-lore me judges for the statement and Interpretation of the question, the Missouri boys held to the original statement, that it would be beneficial to tho U. S. to annex Hawaii, and re fused to change, Nebraska, before Missouri bulires and away from home, were either com pelled to refuse to debate, or accept the odds ami do their best to win un der the adverse circumstances. They chose the latter and from sturt to fin ish the Nebraska boys put up a lino of argument from their point of view of the statement of the (iiicstion, which the Missourians acknowledged they could not answer.
