Who is or has been by trade or employment for wages mechanic, artisan or laborer, or en- gagged in any menial duty. 6, Who is disqualified as an amateur in any oth- CT branch of sport.
 This Is the strictest definition of an amateur that has yet been framed, and, In spite of the charges of snobbery and exclusiveness, it has succeeded in its purpose, Henley is an organization that is intended to be exclusive. And the banks of the Thames are crowded and packed with spectators who realize that there Is not an oarsnan of the lot who gains a penny profit from his eff fort, nor need to. There are no suspi- cious cases of men who are drawing small stipends in menial duties and yet can spend seemingly unlimited time in training, men against whom nothing can be definitely proved, yet whom ev- cry one suspects of competing for mon ey or its equivalent. The men who compete at Henley are not only gentle men by birth and breeding, but their station in life precludes any idea that they will descend to trickery. Call the difinftion arbitrary, call it what you wilb the fact remains 1t has succeeded while every other rule has failed. It has kept Henley clean, and we wish our Henley equally sans reproche. Let the University Athletic club, the prototype here of the Leander Rowing club, which has already done yoeman's service for intercollegiate football, be sponsor to the undertaking and draft a plan or organization which shall be submitted to all the rowing colleges receive their suggestions, and enlist their support in the way of entries The powers that be at New London would undoubtedly offer every reasona- ble inducement and bear large share | of the expenses in consideration of the benefits such a week would bring to the local tradesmen.
 Let the University Athletic club enter a crew for the grand challenge cup se- lected from the famous names of eX- college oarsnen enrolled on the club lists; let us have entries from the uni versity clubs of the different cities crews from Andover St. Paul, Exeter and half 9 score of other SchoolS-to compete for a special cup fours, pair oars, and single scull entries from ev- cry college anywhere near the water, be it only a duck pond;-in fact let us have one grand, good week of fun and athletic sport and good fellowship, that will do more for the cause of rowing and collegiate athletics than any amount of profound theorizing from great minded men, who know not the difference between links and cin- der-path.

about this article is what it does not contain. Bismarck ignores completely the outcry raised in England In the name of humanity and Christian civili- zation. His failure to mention it means simply that he thinks it not worth mentioning. Rightly or wrong ly, he holds in common with all other Continental statesmen and editors ofin- fluence that this outcry has been raised to further purely political aims. He does not waste words on what he re- gards as mere pretence, but goes di- rectly to the reality behind it. Persons at all skeptical as regards this state ment of the interpretation which the Continent places upon England's ap- peals in humanity's name, need only read the Continental newspapers to be convinced that Bismarck has voiced correctly the feelings of those Conti- mental observers who have studied England's methods in the east for a generation.

Middle-Of-the-ROad POpulIst Banner.


A handsome new banner has been
hung across Kansas avenue and in
gcribed in big letters on it's surface are
the names and faces of Bryan and
Watson.
Where the banner came from no one
seems to know. The people woke up
Thursday morning and it was there.
One end is anchored on the Bank Of
Topeka building and the other on the
Jewell building. 1t is by far the hand
Somest campaign banner in Topeka. It
is painted on a large and elaborate
scale and near the top on scroll are
the words, middle of.the- Road POpu-
lists" 1t was evidently gotten up for
the influence 1t would have on the big
crowd at the Festival, but it excited
very little comment from anyone. 1t
did not, like the other banners, serve
as a directory for a headquarters, but
1t did obscure the Bryan and SeWsll
banner which hung across Kansas ave-
nue. a little farther north.

ners. The Democrats and POpullstS
say the banner was bought by the Re.

was not bought by Bennington, or
Willis, or Abe Steinberger.

resort to such subterfuge is disgusting.

gift secured through Cy Lelsnd.-TO-

"If there Is one man in our broad
land who ought to feel proud tonight,
that man is Senator Lucien Baker,
elected without solicitation on his
part, without the slightest effort, by as
able and intelligent a Legislature as
ever assembled in the United States.
"But week ago he came into my
office. He insisted that 1 should be
with you here tonight and promised
me as a further inducement that /
should have all the hydrGnt aOGter that
I wanted (spplsuse). accepted, and
when l asked him what 1t was neces-
ssry for US to bring over from Topeka
to make this occasion happy one, he
said there would be an abundance of
cOrkS, there would be no ZGck Of any,
thing to drink, and If I could bring
along a feoO corkScreeCS daughter and
applause) that is all that would be
needed"
These remarks were made by the
Governor of the great State of Kansas,
