SENATE REORGANIZATION.
Indications at Present Do Not Point to a
Protraoted Fight.

WASHINGTON, 24.-The indications at
present do not point to protracted fight
in the Senate over a reorganization of the
elective officers. 1t appears not to be a
consuming desire to enter into any pro-
tracted debate that win prolong the pres
ent extra session beyond the time when
the president will have notified the Senate
that ne has no further communications
to make, and certain well known senators
said today they intended to leave the city
regardless OF the fact whether there is re-
organization or not. The Republicans
say they will insist upon strict following
of presidents, and if they have the
strength to stand up for that resolution
it looks as if they would be able to force
the Democrats to hold off until the COM
mencement of the REGULAR session.

The students now there would be enriched
by such course, and many a now small
class would be filled up and the interest in
creased The matter demands more elabo-
ration than l have time to give it here but
suffice 1t to say that some of the odious
rumOrs about the college would be settled
with additional students, and such was my
idea III conversation with a representative
when this conversation was reported in the
Grand Rapids Democrat.
1t scarcely seems necessary that you
should be informed that the actual working
force at the college is now less by five than
last fall. 1t is generally supposed that the
budding spring affords opportunities for
greater observation and instruction than
at any other time of the year, particularly
along the line of agriculture. There are
grounds for belief that valuable Opportuni
ties may be wasted for lack of assistance
this year; or, on the other hand, that valu-
able time was wasted by the plethora of
assistance heretofore. The fact that the
work of the department vacated by me has
been assumed by the English department
shows that the capacity for work in that de-
partment had not been reached. During
the lncumbency of former presidents the
work OF this department was done, am in
formed, by them. Possibly future presi-
dent may be found who can be induced to
do the work again.
was asked if l would be satisfied with
the same work another year. and then and
there resolved to vacate at the end of the
years contract. From the few hours that l
would be allowed to teach, would consider
it an imposition upon the state to accept
pay for such small amount of time that
could be put in. Pay at the rate of from 81
TO 20 per hour is disproportionate to the
time, with none of the elements of risk and
responsibility. While politically | do not
belong to either faction of a party men
toned, yet l would rather be classed with
the anti-snappers than otherwise. AS a
proof that my feelings are shared by others
to some extent would add that the students
in crowded chapel and in the face of
frowning president gave me three cheers
and with will, and they also posted a
notice of approval on the blackboard in the
chapel hall.
President Clute is authority for the state
ment that all the work in every department
was we'll done, hence l conclude failure to
conform to the opinion that the college was
doing all that it should do is the reason of
your disapproval.
l leave with no bitterness, but only trust
that the time will come when the college
will be reinstated into its proper field of
usefulness and command the respect of
every one. 1t is not too much to hope that
there will be gathered into its hall 1000
students, and that the deluge of young men
from the farm to the city will be stayed.
Factory life can never give the Drawn and
BRAIN that does the farm, and the college
that will appeal to the masses of farmers
sons and offer an inviting and instructive
course in agriculture will be held in grateful
esteem. JAMES N. MCBRIDE.
