the other charges that were made by Su-

"A sort of moral justification for attacks
upon life and property is supported by
the teaching or practice of the University
OF wisconsin" is absolutely false.
The committeeman say they are sur
prised to find that during the last eighteen
months nearly two hundred books and
articles have been published by the profess
sors and students on various subjects.
The committee states that it cannot for a
moment think of recommending the dis
missal of a teacher even if some of bis
opinions should in some quarters be re-
garded as visionary. They say they
would feel themselves unworthy of the
