Stanford University is weak in that
it is run by woman who shares
and spreads the prejudices of class.
What it lacks and needs is control by
board of trustees which will hire the
best procurable teachers in every
sphere of learning and give them free
dom of speech and conscience. In no
safer way can any young college be
built up nor old one maintained Broad
students will not seek a college which
is ruled by one person or one idea and
they are learning to avoid that which
is ruled by one sect. Long ago Harvard
had a Latin motto meaning For
Christ and His Church." It's trustees
saw fit to change this declaration to
that embraced in the one word Truth
and that college has done a wider and
nobler work since and grown to be a
University. The old motto was fitted
for a pulpit; the new one for an insti-
tuition of secular learning. AS for
Stanford its real motto is what Mrs.
Stanford Wants Is Right" and while
this would answer very well for a sew
ing society under her patronage it
means the death of the University
which bears her sons name. Better a
serve, than the caprice of a woman or
man who thinks it is the duty of a
University to teach merely what she
or he has learned to believe while in the
pursuit of wealth or in the enjoyment
of society.
! Stanford is materially fitted to do a
vast work on the Pacific Coast In
/, equipment it is the only University
] west of the Rocky Mountains; perhaps
the only one west of the Mississippi.
All that money can do is being done to
make it great center of intellectual
achievement. Yet in the midst of it
stands an old woman, captious, irrita-
BILE, prejudiced and headstrong who
insists that the University shall not
teach what she does not believe to be
true. 1t is spectacle which reminds
one of the rancorous Inquisitor stand
| ing in the halls of medieval learning
at Salamanca and communicating all
who dared to think the thoughts of Gal
ileo. Mrs. Stanford cannot consign her
victims to the dungeon or the rack
but she sends them quickly enough out
of her college, whose only offense is an
honest and very capable difference of
opinion with her as to the meaning of
causes and events. ST will not worship

Women Avoid Their Mission

(From Address by Rev. ". s. Rainsford.
Women were made to be wives and
mothers. We are living too fast, dress
ing too well, luxuriating, and woman has
in many cases apparently forgotten that
her highest vocation in life is to be the
beloved wife OF man and the honored
mother of his children.
What nobler mission is there in life
than that? The childless people are the
really poverty y-stricken people. am
sorry for the woman who grows old with
out having child.
| find from my experience with the poor
and the rich that the results of small
families among the latter class are not
as good as might be expected, and OF
large families with the former class not
as bad as might be expected. see many
advantages in large families.
1t is not a time of home making now
People are giving up homes and going
back into hotel and boarding house life
And on the heels of this movement
there is another evil treading
Hotel life and board house life means
small families, or no families at all, and
/ do not exaggerate when / say there are
no greater facts to face, with one of the
gravest dangers and one Of the least ex.
cusable signs Of the times.

and such trust was in direct oppoSi
ton to the views of our greatest and
wisest citizens. s'All trusts are bad,
said he; there are no good trusts.
Mr.. ]. P. Turner, of Norwood, spoke
last for the affirmative. He said that
the farmers were the prey of combina
tons and they must combine to hold
their own, so as not to be compelled
to sell at any price offered and buy at
fixed prices. He spoke of the great
success of the wheat farmers of the
Northwest affected by combination, and
said their plan could be adopted for all
farm products as was proved by the
control of the tomato market in Balti-
more by the truckers about the city
He favored organization by townships,
counties. States and nation. and the
getting rid of the middleman.
Mr.. w. E. Reinhardt. of Lincoln,
closed the debate for the negative. He
said farmers organization would re-
suit in no gain to the farmer; that by
becoming farmer and merchant COM
bined the farmer would violate an
economic law. Such organizations for
sale of the staple products must neces-
sarily have paid agents and these
merchants, trained in the business and
who worked for commissions. The i'm
mense capital needed could not be
raised by farmers, as bonded ware
houses would need millions of capital
to maintain them.
The judges. State Auditor B. F.
Dixon, State Treasurer B. r. Lacy and
Rev. Geo. F. Smith, of the Methodist
church, retired for consultation. In their
absence the band rendered number
of choice selections. Finally the judges
returned and DR.. Dixon appeared on
the roStrum
In speech full of humor and wit
he announced the successful contestants
for the medals and the winning side
in the debate, laughter and applause
punctuating his remarks. The greatest
feature Of the evening. he said, was the
strength and originality of the declama-
tions, essays and debate, and that Il
had been difcult to decide as to which
had been the best. For defamation
the medal was awarded to Mr.. D.
Witherspoon, in the essay contest to
Mr.. j. e. Colt, and to the affirmative
in the debate, the individual medal for
the best speech in the debate going to
Mr.. w. A. Parker.

short speech by the president, and some

Six years ago Mr. E. V. Denton opened
up business at his present stand, just
above the Marlborough House on Fayette-
VILE street Not content with the beauty
of the place, month ago he secured the
services of Mr.. w. e. Cheirefs, the
noted artist, who did the fine work OIL
the new hotel at Pinehurst, and has had
his saloon and cafe entirely remodeled,
and made into spot of most unusual
beauty and attractiveness. Mr.. Denton
was certainly fortunate in procuring sc
noted an artist, and the artistic interior
which now greets his patrons, shows the
wisdom OF his choice. Many beautifui
paintings and fine pictures decorate the
place. Special compliments have beer
paid to three iourishing orders in this
State. When an Elk enters, by glancing
TO the right, he can have his sight re-
freshed by fine copy of The Elk's Call"
so dear to members of that order. Near
the mirror a Red Man" is welcomed by
the realistic reproduction of an Indian
Head in full war paint. Nor are the
Buffalo" forgotten, as the picture of a
buffalo, Large as Life" testifies The
ever beautiful "Pharaoh's Horses" is an
attractive picture. 1t would seem that all
tastes had been consulted, as is necessary
to please Mr.. Denton's large and ever
increasing patronage.
