THE UNIVERSITY.

Our correspondent, "Pro Bono" who
St-ltes from Morgantown criticising the
1,sa1srER's position regarding the pres
klt trouble at the University, has read
hastily and gained false idea Of the
point which, we believed, we had made
sufficiently clear.
The REGIsTER has no complaint 70
enter against the Board Of Regents, nor
has il advocated comforting supreme
mower" on the President Were the
Regents the direct managers of the in
stitutIon the present trouble would not
have occurred. II would manitestly be-
very expensive and totally impractical
bic, however, TO keep the members Of the
Board Of Regents at the University to
exercise direct and immediate super
vision. They are appointed from differ
:, ent sections Of the State by the Governor.
They have other occupations and meet
only at comparatively long intervals.
TITS plain that these gentlemen, men Of
high standing and ability though they
are. can exercise no direct supervision
over the University.
And yet this Board is its sole
executive head. Aud in the mean
time the institution runs itself without
a head, the President having practically
40 power, no authority to enforce disci-
pnne, beinR in fact scarcely more than
q fgurehsad.
our correspondent says that "two
heads are better than one" True, but
one head ia better than nooe. Since it
il imvossibIe for the Board Of Regents
TO directly maAage the University ex-
ecutlve power should be conferred on

AT AN experience meeting Of drunk
ards at St. Bartholomew's Mission In
New York the other day the following
reasons were given for the drink habit
some had become drunkards because
they had TOO much money, and others be-
cause they did not have enough; some be
cause they had 20 work too hard, and 9TH
ers because tBey did not have anything 70
DO; some because they had gambled and
lost, and others because they had gam
bied aud won: some because they mad DO
children, aud Others because they had
more children than they could sup
port: some because they were kept too
closely tied 70 their mothers aprOn-sJrings

freedom had been allowed 90 them by their
parents; some because they had shrews Of

cause they had no wives 20 keep them
