Yesterday was gala day at Columbia

was reelected two years ago on that issue
The Republicans had passed two funding
bills while they were in power, but now
Mr.. Maynard denOunces the funding bill
passed by the last Legislature as 'siniqui-
tous." The Republican party, however, is
prepared to denounee everything done by
the Democratic party. If we were to
adopt the ten Commandments as our plat
form they would object to it, especially to
the oneswhich says Thou shalt not steal.-
