MoRGANToWN, July Is, 1898.
To me Editor Of TEE RfGistsr:
SIR:-Two editorials in recent issues
OF the REGISTER in regard to University
matters have come TO my notice, and
which so plainly misrepresent the con-
dition OF affairs here that l feel that
they should not go unchallenged. The
Board of Regents is composed OF repre-
sentative citizens selected from various
portions OF the State, and it seems rath-
or strange, admitting the REGISTERS
position, that the management OF the
University has so far proved a failure
that the REGISTER proposes TO find a
man so eminently qualified that be can
run the University successfully where
it is charged that Board composed OF
thirteen able men has failed. The state
ment in Thursdays paper that "Dr.
Martin, DR.. Scott, DR.. Thompson, DR..
PurintOn, Hon. VIM. l.. Wilson and DR..
Berkeley have successfully been COM
PEELED to resign" is misleading. In the
first place, Hon. VIM. Il. Wilson re-
signed because he was elected TO Con-
gress. Second, Dr. Purinton never was
President of the University, and he re-
signed the Vice Presidency to accept a
position that pays him several times as
much as he received at the University.
Third, DR.. Berkeley never was Presi-
dent Of the University. He was Chair
man Of the Faculty, and elected for one
year at time. The fact that DR.. Mar
tin was offered ten thOEsand year by
DePauw University, when the State
University was not paying him one
fourth as much, does not seem to
bear out your assertion that he was
forced TO resign for lack OF "full
Executive power" am firm believer
in the saying that "two heads are bet
ter than one" 1t is ceatain that seven
teen members of the faculty can bring
more brains and experience to the man
agement of the university than any
one man. The University of Virginia
has been run for siXty-eight years by
its faculty. II has never been found
necessary there to confer extraordinary
sewers on its chairman. In fact Tho
mas jefferson attached great import
ance to the feature of permitting the
faculty TO elect its own chairman.
The same argument that could be
cited for clothing the President OF the
university with supreme power, could
be forcibly used for comforting the some
power on the speaker of the House Of
Delegates; and yet, will any West Vir-
gfnia Democrat dare suggest such q
thing in a Republican government ?
Confer on the faculty the powers which
7ou would confer on the President, and
If sivtv-eipht wears of eXDerience of the
University Of Virginia counts for any,
thing, the people OF this state will be
assured OF an institution Of learning of
which they may we'll feel proud

his release from Birmingham and about
the same time Parrott signed Chicago
contract. This was a very mixed up
state OF affairs, but President Young,
of the National boerd has decided that
the Cincinnati club paid $500 for Par
rott's release in a perfectly regular
manner aud is entitled TO his services.
Parrott made a very good record dur
ing his career as pitcher OF the Birming-
ham club, and WHILE he has not display
ed any ,-enarkable prOwess since he
foun( berth IN the National League

able acquisition for Cincinnation on &C
count OF the present pitcher famine.
There Is said TO be a possibility that the
