that is what they are doing. Mr..
Raymond has been pretty good re-
publican as republicans 60, and has
run the school according to modern

To DAY is Lincoln's birthday. II

has come to such pass that nc
more holidays can be created ne

services may have been on account
of the number that are already In

it about that some of them are better

observance.
THE Legislative committee ap-
pointed to investigate the affairs at
the State University has made a re-
port. 1t is volumnious one and
among other things recommends a
change in the presidency of the I'm
iversity. The committee seems to
find no fault with the ability Of
President Raymond, but on account
of his youth and his lack Of tact
and other unpopular qualities think
it best to have a change. Should
this recommendation be followed, we
hope the affairs at the States Insti-
tuition will go on in harmonious
way. The continual fight against
the President by the student body
and others, together with the many
scandals connected with the institu-
ton, have done much for the degrad-
ing and unpopularizing of the Uni
versity, to say nothing of the poor
work done at a University where
there is a continual wrangle among
the professors. Another recommen-
dation is that there should be no re-
gent resident of Morgantown. This
