THE HESPERIAN
boautiful Dolsarto form Ajax is with us.
Could ovon the greediest Olivor Twist ask
for moro ? And yet there is more more
galore. As the chancellor casually remark
ed in chapel the other day: uIf I could
not bo a Weaver I would bo a Quaintance,"
and tho surging throng cheered tulmultous
ly. But Nebraska is not oven reduced to
such a choice glorious though it would be.
It is not a case of how happy we would bo
with either, but how happy wo aro with
both. For Hadley W. Quaintance is with
us. Ho will lond his presence and voice
and persuasive ways and active sympathy to
tho good work of snatching victory from tho
haughty southerners. And when Hadley W.
goes out after any prizo that depends on
linguistic attainments ho generally gathers
it in. Everybody who knows anything at
all knows that. And this time Quaintanco
is not only going after tho prize, ho is up
with it, has passed it, is alroady three fur
longs in advance of it and what ho doesn't
know about Switzerland and popular rights
isn't in tho books or magazines the librar
ian knows that.
Added to these tried and tempered war
riors there is an ornamental pieco of furniture
in tho person of ye humble scribe, whoso
good naturo and porsonal attractions will add
good form and eclat to tho occasion.
In all it will bo an event long to bo re
membered. It is to bo hoped that tho best
of preparations will bo at onco instituted so
that tho distinguished visitors may bo suit
ably received and pamporod and carod for
before being led off to oxecution.
In tho words of our ox-Ohancollor, lot us
wolcomo them with bloody hands to a hos
pitable grave.
