changes were made. The regents then
proceeded to lay down arbitrary rules
for the government of the faculty, and
virtually usurped the authority proper
ly belonging to the president. Petty
iealousies and contentious have kept
the institution in a turmoil and shak-
ell the confidence of its best friends.
1t has been made the puppet OF mar
row school of politics by Populist
governor who either could not appre-
ciate the Importance of a broad and
liberal policy in its management, or
who was and is really worse than in
different to its welfare. Now the
fusion board has summarily removed
the president Of their own selection a
few months ago, on account of his OBJ
iectiOns to certain rules of their adOp-
ton, and particularly to their unwar-
ranted PRONUNCIATION of an order MAX
ing gymnasium attendance compulsory
and allowing for it a most unusual
number of credits. Apparently it is
the intention of the regents that the
president shall be mere figure-head,
and that if he has the temerity to as
sert any Independent views of his own
lie shall be accused of "insubordina-
tionn and removed. It is really most
unfortunate state of affairs and one
keenly regretted by all true friends OF
higher education in the State.

IF the new board of regents of the
State University had Systematically
sought to discredit the chief education
al institution of the State in the minds
of the people of the State who have
sons and daughters whom they would
be glad to educate there under favor
able circumstances, they could hardly
have accomplished more to It's injury
than they have done in the brief time
that they have had the management of
its affairs. Under the broad and liberal
policy which had been inaugurated by
the preceding administration the uni
versity bid fair to take rank in a few
years among the best educational in
situations in the west. It's president
was a man of the broadcast culture and
of national reputation for scientific at
tainments. He had been at the head
of the weather bureau of the national
government and was member of vari-
pus scientific societies in the old world.
but his salary was larger than that of
the Pop governor, aad the latter by a
trick quite in keeping with his charac-
ter succeeded in eyading the new
school law which provides That regents
of the university in Office at the time
of its adoption should serve out the
terms for which they were severally
appointed, and appointed enough men
of his own peculiar stripe to control
the board, before he signed the new
law. President Harrington resigned
immediately and Prof. Edwards, a
member of the faculty, was chosen as
ms successor, and numerous other

THE ISLANDER again ventures to
observe that County Board of Trade,
properly organized and conducted,
could be of great service to the county in
inducing settlement and promoting de-
velopment. Now would be an excel
Lent time to organize such a body for
effective wolk. Tens of thousands of
people throughout the east have their
thoughts turned toward this section
now, and it seems to be generally be-
lieved that the State will gain largely
by immigration during the coming
year. In our judgement there ought
to be some concerted effort among our
people to attract share of this immi-
grafton to the banner little county OF
the Sound. 1t is well to remember
that "The Lord helps those who help
themselves"

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common glass with urine
and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sedi-
ment or settling indicates an unhealthy
condition OF the kidneys. When urine
stains linen it is evidence of kidney troub-
lie. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain
in the back, is also convincing proof that
the kidneys and bladder are out of order.

often expressed, that DR.. Kilmer's Swamp

BrEkER ON his JOURNEY.
He Tells About the Great Northwest and
His Travels


Arthur w. Bikker, Jr.. who left
Wheeling some time ago, bound Tor
the Klondike gold field, writes very
interesting letter to the Register from
Williston. North Dakota, dated the
18th inst. He tells about the difficulty
of travel for one who has not the
means to pay railroad fares and ad-
vises any person, unless sworn
knight of the track, who contem-
plates a journey throgh that section
to remain at home. Towns are from
$50 to 200 miles apart and If a man
were put off train in the wilderness
he must necessarily endure great hard-
ships.
At Grand Fork. North Dakota, Blk
ker was approached by young man
who inquired if he was the person who
was walking from Wheeling 10 Alas
ka, and upon receiving an affirmative
reply the young gentleman asked II
he knew V. W. Berry, eX-foreman or
the book-binding department OF the
Register. The young man was r. {.
Berry, who left Wheeling four or five
years ago, and is now in the employ
of the Plain Dealer, Of Grand Forks.
Berry stated that his parents do not
know of his whereabouts.
Mr. Bikker gives an interesting de-
scription of the grain fields in the
vicinity Of Grand Forks. The har-
vest is considerably delayed on ac-
count of wet and raw weather. He
also writes of the Red and Mouse
rivers, which flow directly north, and
gives a glowing description Of a west
ern sunset. In crossing the prairies
from his observation car he saw many
deer. elk. antelopes and jack rabbits.
Bikker has solved the question OF
cheap travel thus far. going 1000
miles from Wheeling without a cent.
He is now on his way to the State Of
Washington.

This addition to our school speaks
for itself. The children trained in
this class are so wonderfully helped
thaat when they take up higher
studies it is a delight TO see how ripe
their infant minds are for compre-

power of their age.
The grounds are spacious and beau

lected that contributes to their health
and comfort. 22-23-26-30
