Another Protest.

As member OF the Board of
University Regents we beg to ex-
press our dissent, in toto, to the
action of minority of the board
in removing Mr. Gault from the
presidency of the State University
This action was taken when only
five members. bare quorum, were
present. Of the nine members of
the board at least FIVE, and we be.
lievc six, would have voted to re-
tain Mr. Gault at the head Of the
institution had they been present
and voting on that proposition.
As it stands now, advantage was
taken Of the absence of four mem.
bers to push through a minority
scheme which the majority would
never have sanctioned. and we
want to go on the record here and
now by stating that we should
have voted with Regents Forney
and Truitt, and against Regent
Martins resolution if we had beer
present, which, unfortunately We
we're not Free Press.

Figures for Farmers.

One of the strongest appeals
made III support OF the silver issue
was that its adoption meant i'm
provement in all farm productions.
The absurdity of the claim has
been demonstrated time and again,
but never so conclusively as by a
stati,,ician who recently investi-
gated in detail the course of silver
and farm products in the Il months
since the adoption of the silver
proposition by the democratic con-
ven,ion at Chicago in 1896, aud
finds that in practically every case
farm products have advanced at
about the same rapid rate as silver
has fallen meantime.
The following table shows that
while silver fell from 6o2 cents
per ounce on July 10, 1896, to 81. 3
cents on March 10, 1898, wheat
advanced from s. 5 cents to 81 OF
pork advanced from SITS per
barrel to $Io.75; wool from II
cents to IA cents, and other arti-
cles of farm production in about

Populists in Nez Perez county
and in Idaho are quick to see the
business of the claim that if fusion
is to be a fair game the democrats
should be willing to exchange
Offices with their allies, giving up
for the coming two years state and
county control to the populist
wing Of the fusion party. Natur-
ally the democrats object, but in
the end they must yield. Half a

CALLS THIS A CRANK MOVEMENT
Proposal to Name Avenue E Dewey
Avenue" Moves a Residenr.

Did you ever hear of anything SO ri-
dieuleus as the latest freak of the resi-
dents of Avenue E in wanting to have
that street named Dewey avegnIe?' said
a G~reenvillite to a News reporter yes
terday. The person quoted then went on
to tell of the latest freak as he called
it. and said that Greenyille was full of
such cranks. why the Who'll section is
full Of Improvement fiends. and yet when
the time for action arrives nothing is ever
done that mounts to anything. An il
lustration of how much in earnest the
Improvement eranks are was shown when
the so-called Citizens Improvements Asso-
citation was organized last winter. This
association lasted about two weeks and
nothing was ever accomplished save
e~Iectfng a number of officers. Why that
association was ever put in existence
many nave tried to find out, but none
have succeeded.
with all Il improvement associa-
tfons, / fail to see that the Greenville Sec
ton of the city is being benefited in any
way by their efforts. Now the idea of
changing the name Of that street to Dew
ey avenue is another Illustration of the
freakish nature of the 'improvers.' but it
is quite safe to say that there are many
residents on that street who will never
agree to have the name changed"
