EDITORIAL.
Thk gloo and banjo clubs' concert this
year was bettor than last. The audience
was not largo, but veiy appreciative. Tlio
success of those organizations is assured, we
believe, and next year they will bo the most
popular in the University. Everyone who
can sing should try to get on the glee club
next fall, and, when ho is on, practice con
tinually until Nebraska has the best club in
the west. This can and will be done if wo
sot our minds to do so. Tho object is a
worthy one and deserves tho support of the
University,
All subscriptions due the Hespkria.n
should be paid at once. Anyone owing
the paper can obiain a receipt by paying any
of the editors or by leaving the money at
tho co-op.
With this issue wo lay down our pen after
what has been a pleasant, although in many
respects trying, year's work. Wo have not
been able to publish as large a paper as our
predecessors, but the wonder is that we
have been able to do so at all. Thk IJks
pkrian is now in much better condition
financially than when Mr. Abbott took the
management, and with hearty co-operation
from tho students; we feel certain that the
excellent management of next year will give
tho University a much better paper than
ever before. Whatever faults may bo found
with the present management, do not forget
that it alone is responsible for them. Do
not make our successor sutler for our mis
takes. Finally we would thank our assist
ants for their hearty aid and co-operation;
and our constituency for its forebcaring
charity through the trials of the past year.
Thk IIkspkrian shall ever have our kindest
wishes, and wo bespeak for it a long and
successful career.
The base-ball teamreports a most profit
able trip to Iowa. Thgamo with Grinnell
was played in tho presence of several
hundred students from all over the state, it
being tho time of the annual state field day.
Many friends were made for the University
by tho gentlemanly conduct and excellent
playing of tho boys, and they deserve our
hearty co-operation in aiding them to get
rid of the unfortunate deficit which has been
caused by tho refusal of Ames to keep their
