1t is imperative that Attorney Gen.

question as affected by the Organic
Acts prohibition of holdings of land
of over 1000 acres should be tested to

liable. if affirmed in the last resort, to
nullify teetotally the will of Congress
regarding public lands in Hawaii. Mr..
Beckley's resolution to ask for repudia-
ton of all the Hawaiian land trans
actions, between the passage Of the an
nexation resolution and the coming
into effect of the Organic Act, would
seem TO be, however, a day behind the

They Made No Mistake

When a farmer board of regents
gave the state University shakin G
up by dismisslng the then president
and otherwise changing the faculty,
the Moscow Mirror doubted the
wisdom of the move, but that the
regents made no mistake, is evil
denced by the following from this
same Mirror OF last week:
The past year has been an suspicious
one for the University of Idaho. Har-
monious action on the part of President
Mclean, the faculty and the board Of
regents has placed the institution on a
new foundation and with President
McLean's ability as an educator and ex-
ecutive demonstrated, the future of the
University never appeared brighter
With the new buildings completed and
added facilities for the accommodation
of students next year the increase in
attendance will undoubtedly be large.
