The current APPROPRIATIONS Tor the several
buildings are not sufficient to comply with
the demands that are made to place them
in proper condition. Each year the number
of buildings is increased, but the amount
estimated for their proper care has not
been allowed. The wear and tear that our
buildings are subjected to is such as to
demand pI ompt attention to neutralize, and
when repairs are denied by want of money
the cost of restoration becomes grea,er.
Therefore, 1 hope that the estimates SUBJ

i have received from Prof. c. N. Little

1t contains an address to the class of 80

President Jordan's address to the class

Is an impressive and original sermon,
delivered In the simple words of

1t Is a great opportunity a man has
when he addresses q class of college
graduates. Their hearts are soft with
youth; they are leaving the tried and
conquered and starting out into the I'M
tried and defiant world. They know
they know a great deal. but they are not
sure they can make 1t impressive and
apparent. Therefore, they are willing
to take advice from a man, especially
from q college president who has
the advantage of them by a few years
research. The men who listened to that
hortatiOn will never forget it-nor will
one who has read It,
1t Is pity that talk Of the kind ap-
pears to be addressed only to the men in
a class Of which more than q third are
women. To be sure the grammarians
explain that man means woman, too,
but when the farewell is spoken to men
and all the examples are Of heros and
begins when a man." ETC., 1t is hard for
the omnipresent feminine to believe
that 1t means her too. How would the
men like to be told that woman was
a generic term and meant man, too;
that "be a woman" means "be a man.

The Daily Palo Alto contains a picture
Of the varsity track team and one of
the baseball nine. They look brawny,
brainy, six-foOters. The track team
especially looks as though II would
sweep down everything human that got
in the way. They look more muscular
than the Yale crew that has gone over

The Democracy of North Carolina is in very
bad shape. It only elected one Congressman,
and but 40 out of the 40 members of the Legis-
lature. The State Government passes entirely
into the hands Of the Republicans and Popu-
lists. The Legislature will have to elect a
Senator to succeed Jeter c. Pritchard, Repub-
lican, and the Republicans hope that he will
succeed himself. The Democrats say that they
are now organizing for great fight two years
hence, which will decide their fate.

Probable Extra Session.

. statement to the effect that Maj. Mckinley
will endeavor to see collected great National
party that will give prosperity to the country.
He expects and hopes that men of all shades
of former political belief will be united to this
end" said Mr.. Hanna. 81 have talked with
some of the most influential of the old Demo-
cratic leaders, and / am glad to say they are in
accord with Maj McKinley's hopes.
"The first movement he will make will be to
obtain sufficient revenue to conduct the Gov
eminent. Further issue of bonds would be al
together too dangerous. Business prosperity
and stability demand that as soon SIS possible
the Government should be on paying basis.
"T0 this end an extra session of Congress
will be necessary, and President Mckinley will
undoubtedly call one soon after his Inaugural
ton.
Legislation will be required to secure the
desired revenue. and Maj Mckinley will do
everything in his power to secure it, as we'll as
the legal establishment of policy which will
tend to put everybody at work. In all this he
hopes and expects that he will be backed by
patriotic men. regardless Of party lines"
