ADMISSION TO THE BAR.

Ou;te d number of young men are IN

REL D oM is THE SOUL OF EDUCATIONAL
PROGRESS.

1t is a very happy idea for college
presidents to open the yearly exercises
by an address to the student body that
will not only stimulate them but will
be helpful as well to all who read. The
extract from the address of President
Alderman printed last week was
gem, and breathed the true spirit that
should pervade al our higher education
al institutions.
The address of President Schurman,
of Cornell University, was a striking
and strong presentation of the necessity
or freedom of thought in our great in
the Brown University discussion has rev
suited in calling attention to the wor-
ship Of money by college presidents and
the dangers attendant upon it. We
rake room for an extract from President
Schurman's address:
Cornell recognizes that the majority
may be wrong and that the minority may
be right. Therefore, absolute freedom
is the soul of the institution. Brlce
called our major;ty-rule system fatalism
of the multitude We believe here that
one man, with Gods truth is a majori
ty, and every teacher is expected to do
what Socrates did, although he outraged
Athenians and suffered martyrdom for
ito communicate to otf IS his own be
lief and convictions or elsG answer to n
charge of sacrilege. | believe the insti
tuition should cease to exist thousand
times sooner than that a single professor
should be coerced.
IF ut any time it is said that COZ
lege ought to treat what the aveEA5
man believes or what the faculty sfg40
is so, it contravenes the principle on
which the university is founded, for
students come here for the very pur-
pose of having their ignorance purged
away.
"A teacher is the representative of no
one; he ministers in the Temple of
Scholarship, and to hold other views than
he states would be sacrilege or worse
than sacrilege.
Money is needed to run university,
and, to be sure, our Board of Trustees
have trouble in making both ends meet;
yet if money is TO be the goal of in
struction by the suppression Of truth
by setting limit on teacher, better a
housand times that the institution
should 90 out of existence. The end
of a university is truth and the propaga
ton of truth; money is buth the means
to this end.
Was Copernicus wrong and the men
who opposed him right! Was Darwin
wrong on his theories of evolution, and
the multitude who opposed and bounded
him right?
I'VE need more heresies in science
The advance Of civilization will mean
the stamping out of these heresies or the
establishing Of their truth. Freedom
absolute, unrestricted freedom--is the
soul of the university

Henri Watterson and Willie Breckenridge held convention in Louisville, Kentucky, last We'd nesday and denounced the silver men and the silver cause in most drastic terms. John G. Carlisle, the traitor, was chairman of the convention. John G. told how in the dim and distant future G.. Cleveland's administration would be recognized at its true value and that his name would go down the ages with rush that would take an ordinary presidents breath away. Senator Lindsay made a ludicrous play on the name of Jones, so the telegraph informs us. The ludicrous play reads:
 We are to d that the tariff on wools W II not be reduced because Jones says it will not. We are told that the tax on white pine lumber will not be advanced because Jones says it won't, and he knows
 London Punch IS the only jOurn- al in the world that will appreciate the humor in Lindsay's remarks. MT. Watterson's remarks were really humorous. He said:
 "In Gods name, I ask, shall the great historic democratic party, with it's glor- ious achievements and noble possibili- ties, be scuttled and sunk by such men and in actual sight of an open sea and safe harbor? It is with the rank and file of the party to say, To the rank and file, therefore, we turn with eager but with confident hope We ask them, in sober truth, as friends and brothers, to look about them, to stop and think and, seeing whether we are being hurried by passion and error, to help us reverse the engines before it is too late 7"
 Now, privately, Henri, do you believe those horrid free silverites really intend to use the engines to scuttle the old democratic ship of state? or, was this simply little bull of yours.
