ROWING.
Cornell NAY Send Her Oarsmen to Henley for
Several Years.

GoFneii may benu tter OnFnmen TO hentey tof
Several Years.
ITHACA, Oct. 1.-THE Cornell Athletic Coun-
Gil held a long and important session tonight.
Tho meeting was secret, as usual. and the fol-
lowing resolution was given out to the press
representatives:
The Athletic Council extends an invitation to ali
alumni OF Cornell University to attend q meeting for
the general discussion OF the athletic interests OF the
university to be held on Friday. Oct. 22, at 4 O'Clock
p. NJ. in Boardman Hall.
The question as to what the Cornell navy will
do next year relative to races is considered 30
momcntous a question that the council did not
feel like'adopting a course of action without first
receiving the views OF tho alumni. The ques-
whether in case Cornell cannot get q race with
Yale. she should send n crew to Henley. There
Is also TO be decided how to arrange for the an
nual race with Columbia and Pennsylvania in
case Harvard and Yale invite Cornell to row
with them.
The general sentiment seems to be adverse to
rowing two races again next year. II is quite
possible that at the alumni meeting the ques.
ton will be voted on as 10 whether Cornell
shall not.take a manly stand and ask Yale and
Harvard to admit the Columbia and Pennsyl.
vania crews, and in case of a refusal. to send a
crew to Henley for several years. 1t was also
voted that the President Of the council be en-
powered to call a meeting OF the students TO dis
cuss the situation some time during the present
term.

An Historical Contrast.

The movement for the annexation
OF Hawaii to the United States is
remarkable for its contrast to tho
projected annexation OF San Domin-
go in 1870 The national antipathy
to the acquisition Of extra-continen
til possessions, which then defeated
the utmost efforts of President
Grant. has been wonderfully re-
versed. In 1869 President Grant
concluded treaty by which San
Domingo was to become an Anne
rican territory. He urged it on the
ground that it was in the interest
Of the Monroe doctrine, would COM
mand the eastern entrance to the
Gulf of Mexico, would lead to the
abolition of slavery in Cuba, Porto
Rico, and ultimately Brazil, would
benefit American commerce and
prove lucrative in other ways. But
the Senate would have none OF it,
although special Commission, sent
to investigate the matter, reported
favourably. After a year and half
of fruitless endeavour the President
finally abandoned the scheme, de-
claring that the intelligence of the
people would vindicate his course.
Nor Was he more successful in his
endeavour to get Congress to buy
the island of st. Thomas in 1870.
He concluded a bargain with Den
mark for the sale of the islands for
$500, 600, but the Senate defeated
it. The ease with which the Hawaiian
Islands, 1000 miles west Of San Fran.
cisco, are to pass into American
possessions, so soon after islands
adjacent to the Atlantic coast were
sturbbornly refused, seems to have
indicated President Grant most
completely. 1t is politicians
scheme: there is no popular demand
for it, but there is money in it for
somebody. A large part of the
thoughtful mind OF the country
contemplates this abandonment of
traditional policy with profound
apprehension. j. M. W.

Topics OF The DAY.

1t is interesting TO watch the num-
erour tax cases, which are being pre-
sen ed twice week in the District
Court. In several instances the tax
collector demands from the "delin-
quept" taxpayer one dollar fora dog,
" hich has served as an entree at
some luau months ago, and the tax
office upon ascertaining the fact has
to pay three dollars costs, which are
punctually collected by the Judge.

ought TO have his tax collector APP

to see the pupils wrestling with the
following financial problem: The
tax man says that "a, owes 81 taxes
for a dog-which he hasn't got

this fact. How many dogs and how
much costs will it take at this rate

THE CoURIER's reflections upon Pro-
lessor Wolfe's personal character are alb
s1lutely inexcusable except on the ground
OF violent preiu lice. Fortunately for the
profes Or, he is too we'll known in Lin
coin to need any defense. No one who is
at all acquainted with him. either citi-
zen or student, can deny him the re.
spect due to a man who is thoroughly
honorable and upright, who does not
hesitate 10 act the right he believes in
even to the disregard Of his personal

even though he may at one time have
been a Nebraska "ploughboy alto
gether a gentleman. l do not say
however that Professor Wolfe possesses
the suaye ius nceriiy OF manner which
is 8, evidently THE CoURIER's ideal OF
yentlemanliness nor has it ever occurred
t, me to search out his family tradlt-
ions" for a patent to that culture which
is his as an educated man ard student.
THE CoURIER's assertion that The
student demon stration was that OF
"noisy minority Of Professor Woifes
confid .nts" censursd by "the large and
respec able part OF the student body 10
simply a misstatsment OF the facts
which needs no denial except outside
university Giro es. Professor Wolfe not
only exerted no Influence to encourage
the demonstration but dill endeavor t.
quiet it as may be readily proven. And
az TO the students engaged bsiRg in the
minority-THE COURIER most certainly
cannot refer TO numerical relations.
The filings at the character OF the

absurd, rather the more SO coming from
a graduate zen. But very likely there
are some o. US who haven't the requisite
three generations pedigree OF THE

upon for our own credentials. 1t may
even chance that some OF US are children

hope it's not quite all Of that-mat'ers
not. What does mat er is the implication
that these qualities spring from Professor
Wolfe's influence or characterize his
students. This is certainly untrue. His
own character is tn, opposite OF all these
and as is his character SO is his intiu-
ence. 1 have been in his classes ard
