GoFF's AMBITION.
Why He Declined Place on the Su-
Dreme Bench

1t looks anomalous, and almost be-
yond belief, that anyone fairly well
advanced in years should decline the
position of justice of the United
States supreme court; yet thai is
what it is alleged, Judge Nathan
Golf, OF West Virginia. has twice
done. Judge Golf is a gentlemen Of
great natural ability, but Of still
greater ambition. He is Of restless,
nervous temperament, like most men
of small stature. great vitality and
decided talents. He realizes that if
he should accept the position of JUS
tice of the supreme court it would in
all probability lead eventually to his
resigning himself TO the duties OF the
position, and the giving up of all
other ambition.
This he cannot as yet bring himself
to do. 1t is known that Judge Gnfr
wants to go To the United States
senate, and this he could not do if he
went on the supreme court bench. 1t
is not, probably, that he considers
the position Of senator greater
honor than that of supreme court
justice. but 1t might lead to some
thing else. while the supreme court
position would he virtual burial

An Honest hOOsier.

The Pension Office is wrestling
with a remarkable case, of which
Comrade Clark Graves, a farmer liv-
ing near Monrovia, Morgan county,
Indiana, is the hero. Several weeks
ago Mr.. Clark sent to the Pension
Office draft for $500, that being
the amount of Pension of two years and
a half. He explained that the Pension
had been given him for rheumatism,
and that as he is no longer suffering
from the disorder, he did not feel
that he ought to keep his pension
money. The case was SO astonishing
that an Inspector was sent to inquire
into Mr.. Graves sanity. The inspect
or to-day reports that the comrade
was as sound in mind as he was
healthy in body and that he knew
what he was doing and meant. The
Pension Office will probable keep him
on the rolls, but cut his pension down
from $40 month to SO. What to do
with the $500 is puzzle, and it may
be returned to Mr.. Graves. No pro-
vision seems to have been made to
take back money under such circum-
stances.

If it is question of following Sen
ator German or the Baltimore Sun
it is not likely that many Maryland
Democrats will hesitate in making
choice Senator German has never
faltered in supporting Democratic
principles, while the Sun supported
Mckinley last year and has opposed
the regular Democratic ticket from
the beginning of the present cam
paign. The newspaper that refuses
to support the party ticket, except
when it is allowed to name it, does
not deserve the individual support
of members of the party.

WITHIN A WEEK
New Regent Will be Named Will
be a Huntington Man-The Three
Can1idatea

Within a week there will be new
regent appointed by the governor to
take the place made vacant by Prof.
Atkeson's resignation. Who the
choice of George Wesley is, is not made
public, only we are at liberty to state
that it will be Huntington man.
There are three candidates for the
position. Two of them are gold DEM
ocrats-Taylor VinsOn and Rufus
Switzer, and the third is silver man,
George Neal. 1t will be one of these
three who will receive the appoint
ment. They all want it and their
friends are urging their appointment.
Neal is the only one who was ever a
student here, he having graduated
from the law department. This fact
may prove the deciding factor in max
ing the choice. However, it may not
be considered as it has not been At
kinson's policy to appoint regular par
ty men, when required by law to do
so, but has uniformly, or nearly so
chosen boilers. The criticism aroused
by this course may prevent further
continuance of it.

CONTINUOUS SESSION
Great Opportunity for Hundreds OF
Students Who Could not Come Other

The announcement that hereafter
the West Virginia University is to
be kept open all of the year has met
with the most hearty approval all
over the Stat. There are hundreds
of ambitious and earnest young men
and young women in West Virginia
and neighboring States who find it
almost impossible to attend college
during the winter. They are teach
ers, preachers and others who must
earn their living as they go along.
Hitaerto all these have been kept out
Of the University by the necessities
Of the case-they had to work when
the University was open, and when
they got a vacation the University
was closed.
Heneeforth the University doors
will never be closed. The year will
he divided into four quarters, prob
ably begin as follows: January |,
April |, July and October |.
While no student or instructor
will be expected to work at the Unit
yersity more than nine months out
of twelve, unless he so desires, the
University itself will be in continu-
GUS session throughout the year,
there being no long summer vacation
but instead four short vacations,
one week long, at the expiration of
each period of twelve weeks. Under
this system, student may begin his
work at the beginning of any quar-
ter and may take vacation either
in the summer quarter, or in the au
tumn, winter or spring quarter, and,
indeed he is at liberty to continue
University work during all a quarters
if he is strong enough and desires to
do so. Instructors, also, may arrange
to take their vacation in any quarter
of the year, provided not more than
one-tourth of the instructors elect to
take their vacation at the same time
Arrangements have been made to
secure outside help when needed. In
the summer it is easy to get able in
structors from other institutions at
very reas onable salaries.
The courses will be so arranged
that the work of each quarter will be
complete in itself, and courses for
which there is great demand will be
given more than once in the same
year, so that any student in attend
ance during any quarter that year
may have the opportunity Of taking
them.
During the summer quarter at
least one of the professors of Peda-
gogy will always be on duty to con-
duct classes and lead round tables
for the benefit of teachers, and dis
tinguished educators from other in
situations will be present to give
courses of six weeks and twelve
weeks.
The summer quarter will be divid-
ed into two terms of six weeks each
SO that some short courses may be
given for those who do not desire to
spend the entire summer in school,
There will be, however, regular
twelve weeks courses in the summer
quarter such as are given during the
other quarters.
This four quarter system ought
to draw to the University hundreds
Of new students and widely extend
its sphere of usefulness.
