PRESIDENT Low AND COLUMBIA.
Effect on a College When Its Head
Enters Politics.

New York Letter in Philadelphia Press.
There remains now for President Low TO
consider the wishes OF the trustees of Co
lumbia University. He has felt that 1t
would not be fair to the university were he
TO ask, in case he be elected, for a leave OF
absence for two years. 1t has been his
strong inclination. in the event of his cleo
ton. TO resign the presidency of the uni
versity in good faith and in the expectation
that a permanent successor will be chosen.
Trustees of educational institutions some
times display strange shOrtsightedness
when members Of the faculty have been
designated for high political responsibility
They have looked upon the choice for pO-
litical Office of their president or some one
of their faculty as harmful to the interest
OF the institution. IL has not occurred TO
them at all times that this very choice re-
acts upon the college or the university. and
tends finally to emphasize the Importance
OF learning and of the university In fitting
men to have responsible part in the great
activities OF government and OF life outside
the boundaries of the school. Yet IL there
be a disposition on the part OF the trustees
of Columbia University TO raise objection
TO the temporary retirement OF President
Low. these men will speedily be Informed
that, in all probability. his association with

will probably be of the finest service TO
Columbia University itself reacting In a
most favorable way upon that university.

ties of the university now have In mind,
