by which all other universities must abide
The system had been tried In Europe and
had met with success. Starting where other
universities and colleges left on, the Ma
t1onai University would elevate the general
education to the high plan for which 1t
should be created.
The Closing.
The closing address of the evening and
the last one on the negative side, was made
by Thomas Jeremiah O'Neill, 30, of New
York, and was full of arguments. The es-
adjustment of such a university he thought
inexpedient because 1t would be contrary to
the fundamental principles of our institu-
tons; because it would lower the standard
OF education, and because 1t was imprac;ic-
able. He made a good point by comparing
the establishment Of such an institution to
the establishment of a national church for
the country. If such an institution was ee-
tabiished 1t would have power to dictate
the curriculum to every other institution OF
learning in the country. The professors
would not be freemsn any longer but would
nave to teach according to the dictates OF
the national organization. 1t would force
the general government to become an usl-
necessary competitor with American riti-
zens, giving 1t a monopoly in the line OF
educatfons, and of all monopolies a govern
ment monopoly was the worst That WASH
ington did not dream of establishing such n
university as contemplated Is clearly evil

on the alert to warn people Of the influence

A PATRIOTIC PROTEST

The Eagle, editorially but rather in
cidentally, asked the question. a few
days since, in what direction would
the old soldier sentiment take in the
event of war with Spain over the
rights of the mixed race Of native Gu
bans; whether or not would the old
soldiers encourage their sons and the
youth Of their acquaintance to enlist
or otherwise. The query brought out
reply from NJ. Pembleton. an old
soldier living in Ness county, who in
yesterday mornings Eagle said that
he would most certainly DISCOURAGE
enlistments, not only because war is
hell, but because wars are for the rich

M'KINLEY WAS RIGHT.

It is slowly dawning upon the coun-
try that President Mckinley has been
right from the start on this Cuban i'm
broglio, and that at all the points
where congress disagreed with him
that congress was wrong, and that the
impatience of the people was not well
grounded. Had the president, under
the political pressure of congress, or
from suddenly aroused Indignation,
over the destruction Of the Maine,
turned lingo, the damage to the coun-
try might have been irreparable and
the humiliation of his administration
little short of national disgrace. To
start with, the trouble was not our
own. but the quarrel of others, wholly,
up to the point OF sinking the Maine,
and that dastardly act has not been
fastend on Spanish officials by any di-
rect or satisfactory proof. In the name
of humanity we are making the cause
of an alien our own, and had McKin-
ley, by an official recognition of the in
surgent government, or by any overt
act, precipitated actual conflict before
first taking time to convince the world
that we were not only legally warrant |
ed but morally obligated, the mistaken |
haste might have led up to war in |
volving both hemispheres. With Aus |
tria's and Italy's sympathies for Spain |
and Frances financial interests, the |
conflict, even as it stands, may spread |
and become a pseudo-religious war.
The world of monarchial prejudice is
naturally against this pretentious
American republic, and the wisdom of
the presidents precaution is, or
should be, unquestioned. It was his
duty to avert war, if possible with
honor. That he endeavored to save
the patriots Of Cuba and all our in
terests in that island without resort to
war, no one will question. He plead
with Spain and threatened in the
strongest terms, and it was only after
every effort had failed that he trans
mitted his message to congress de-
claring that Spain must withdraw
from Cuba and leave the government
Of that island to its own people, Nc
Kinley was making the record Of a
statesman, and that record will prove
a bright and untarnished one on the
pages of history. The president was

HOLDING OUR OWN.

Yesterday mornings dispatches
showed New York to be London's rival
in the financial world. New York was
less affected than London by the war
news. The foreign trade of the United
States continues to show such great
exports and moderate imports that the
balance in favor of this country,
which has lately drawn in about $780,
100000 Of foreign gold, is still piling up,
and there is no sign that the move
ment is near it's end. From present
indications we shall gain at least
$780, 900, 900 in gold this year by excess
of exports over imports, and half as
much more by the yield Of the mines
in the United States above the quanti-
ty which will be used in the arts. In
other terms, the increase in the stock
Of gold available for use as money will
not be less than $780, 900, unless
some radical change is near. That is
moving the financial center of the
world westward at a rate calculated
to open the eyes of Europeans who
fancy that New York can never be-
come London's successful rival for
first place among money markets.
