The most contemplate thing about
this paragraph is that while it implies
a great deal it wisely refrains from
making definite statements. The in
elimination is clearly that the state
universe ty. to which the article In-
directly devotes itself, is hostile to
Jesus Christ" There is more than a

signify that every man who cries Lord,

sity branches of the Y. NJ. c. A. and Y.
W.C.A, are larger than those in any other
colleges Of the state. Every summer at
least six missionaries have gone out
from among the students to the western
part of the state. Several university
graduates have devoted their lives and
talents to foreign missions among the
decollete savages Of Zulu and the wild
Arabs of the Sahara. All throughout
the school year twelve o'clock prayer
meetings are held in vacant class rooms
Of the university which are largely
attended. Last year credit was given
for Bible study and regular lecture
&C urse on Bible topics was conducted in
the chapel. And all this is from choice.
from conviction and belief. The

ematics. A man may play on the foot
ball team even if he is not Methodist
and he may win his oratorical honors
without the preparation Of conversion
and baptism. He can even graduate
without becoming congregationalist.
Speaking of the comparative moral
uprightness and honesty of purpose in
secular and denominational schools
recalls the peculiar policy practiced by
the Wesleyan university" some three
years ago in excusing students from re-
citation to attend revival meetings.
This was kept up for a period of several
weeks. The question is. lis that honest
education? Students go to the Wes-
leyan university to cover just so much
ground in various branches of study.
The Wesleyan university gives the word
to its patrons TO see that every
industrious student masters Just so
much of the curriculum. But honor and
religious zeal are things that have too
seldom walked together in this world,
and sectarian colleges do not seem to
bring them much closer together.
The same issue of the Congregational
Ne,cs remarks apopos of Chancellor
McLea n that most of the college presi-
dents are graduates of ''our denomi-
ational schools" Naturally, unless they
are beardless youths, for state insti-
tutions were practically unknown in
this country fifty years ago. State
education is the method of the future
as sectarian education was the method
Of the past.

The July number of Nebraska Con-
gregdtiondi Neics, a Lincoln publication
which purports TO represent the en-
lightened views of a cultured Christian
community, makes some erroneous
statements regarding state education
which should be corrected. The article
referred TO is headed Points and Point
ers" and begins with the sweeping asser-
tions that The denominational schools
Of the state must be relied upon to pre-
serve the true idea OF liberal edaca-
tion, statement TO which a great
many objections may be offered. The
next startling assertion reads Where
then shall Nebraska's boys and girls
obtain preparation for the classical
course? Clearly in the academies" and
proceeds TO argue that the high schools
of the state do not and can not prepare
students TO enter the university since
the first preparatory year is removed
The appeal is stirring. and its object so
obvious that the whereabouts of its
author can be definitely located as about
twenty miles west OF Lincoln. But
facts are mightier ever than eloquence
and they are .hese. Eighteen high
schools in the state admit students to
the freshman year of the university,
and fifty four TO the second preparatory
year. The university ca talogue pub
lished in July shows that 4l9 students
were prepared in accredited high
schools. III at other high schools, All
at other public schools, 81 at private
schools and only 277 at other academies
and universities.

The marriage of Miss Rose Higgins to

emnizcd at the brides home in Rose
vile ILL.,, Wednesday Sept 4th. Both
Miss Higgins and Mr.. Sheldon were for
several years students at the state uni
versity. Miss Higgins graduated in "a
and Mr.. Sheldon in 80. Uutil their
graduation their names always figured
prominently in all university enterprises.
Miss Higgins was one OF the most popu-
lar and vivacious young ladies OF her
class and Mr.. Sheldon was perhaps the
most liked and likeabie all around COL
lege man that the university ever sent
out. He was an authority on all points
in college politics and he was a mighty
influence for fairness, justice and out
right manly conduct. No man in the
university ever did more than he to
make the honorable thirg the usual
thing. Both Miss Higgins and Mr..
Sheldon were well known in the city
and The COURIER is by no means alone
in wishing for them every happiness.

THE ARIZONA KICKER.
An Editors Programme That Has Never

ABOUT LIBEL SUITS. Wheeler, cdi-
tor of Tho Western Star Of Pine Hill, made
US u call the other day, and he was so wor-
ried over SIS, 900 libel suit that he
couldn't sit still for two consecutive min
utes. Indeed he was so scared that his Oh

ngo Editor Jones of The Lost River Gazette
was sued for libel, with damages laid at
$40, 900, and he went homo and hung him

later Editor Jackson of tine Valley City
News was sued for SIS, 200, and he mount
ed his mule at midnight and fled away
into New Mexico, leaving $1,000 outfit
to fall into the hands of his enemies.
When we began the publication of THE
KICKER, we laid down a programme re-
garding libel suits. There were and are
yet in this locality about 30 different peo-
pie who are oversensitive about their
worthless regulations. There are also half
n dozen shyster lawyers ready to begin a
libel suit at moments notice II there Is

prepared ourselves. There has been only
one single week In the last three years in
which some one has not sued us for libel.
That was the week Colonel Williams In
tended to sue, but was shot and badly
wounded by u COW puncher and forgot all
about us for IL few days.
The gross sum called for by the numer-
Gus suits foots up something over SO, 000,-
900, but not one single suit has ever come
to trial. nor have we ever paid out q cent
in costs or settlement. When the genial
sheriff opens our sanctum door and throws

There is no hurry about Ii.
Sometimes we wait an hour and some
times half a day. Sooner or later, how
ever, wc strap on our guns and sake q

he expects call from US and fondly hopes
to get the drop. In this he Is disappointed.
We have invariably had the iaok 10 hold

or In a saloon. There Is never anything
like an interview. We ask him how long
he thinks 1t will take to withdraw his
suit, and he seldom puts the time at over
Ave minutes.
There are occasions when we cannot
find the plaintiff in the case. Then we
make call on his lawyer. The lawyer is

map Of Arizona and secure full particu-

though the same shyster may take a new
one the next week. Ninety-n'ne out Of
every hundred libel suits are o mistake.
The plaintiff labors under the impression
that he has character to be damaged,
and lawyer strengthens that impression.
The fact 10, be has nothing to lose, and
two minutes after being stood up he real

and Chicago the editor of newspaper
who Is sued for libel sits still and lets the
caso go into court and pays hundreds OF
dollars to a lawyer to defend 1t and II
beaten draws his check for the amount.
II we were to adopt that style here, It
would need three courts to try our suits
and 81, 600, 900 year to check against.

HE HOLDS ONE BILL OF, SOC
During the Thick OF the Flight He
Also Boosted His Son Along.
Who Was a Candidate for =,
County Commissioners. ~ n.

Corvallis, Dec. PA curious law
suit has been commenced here In which
John c. Popham is the plaintiff and
the late Corvallis for the -county-seat
campaign committee is the defendant
Mr.. Popham sues for an alleged indebt-
edness of about $50 which he claims is
the balance due him from the commit
tee for services rendered during the
late Ravalli county seat contest. The
committee does not deny that Popham
was In its employ during the campaign
nor does II deny that the balance for
which the plaintiff sues represents the
unpaid portion of the sum for which
Popham's services were engaged.
The defense reveals the fact that Mr..
Popham is certainly a thrifty man, 1t
being asserted that he was, during the
campaign, in the employ OF the Ana
conda capital committee and that he
was also boosting for his son, who ovas
a candidate for county commissioner.
The Corvallis committee alleges that
Mr. Popham could not do the town
justice with so many irons in the fire.
and that, IL he had devoted his entire
energies to the county seat contest as
was understood when he was retained
Corvallis would undoubtedly have won
the county seat battle. On these and
other minor accounts the committee
considers that Mr. Popham was ex-
ceedingly fortunate to get any of the
Corvallis money and he ought to be
willing to charge the $50 to profit and
loss
