Jusrro PLEASE OUR NEIeHBoR

Those were COURAGEOUS machine
methods" VIII the Herald please
explain which committee was the more
adepts-Columbia Journal.
The young man who edits the Journal
seems to think that the proper caPer is
to find fault with the Herald. We
hope as be grows older he will grow
wiser.
The question he asks above is captious,
but we will answer it just as II he had
meant il in good faith.
The methods employed by both the
committees were outrageous. in some
particulars. 1t was outrageous that
the chairman Of the old committee did
not give public notice sooner than he
did of his purpose TO call the committee
together. And it was outrageous in
the old committee TO take from the dis
trict committeeman the right TO appoint
the judges aud clerks Of the election,
and give it into the hands Of one man,
and that man a bitter partisan. That
was what the Herald condem led at the
time, and we have no reason or DISPOSE
ton to change our views.
1t was not outrageous, neither was IL
wrong. in the old committee to receive
and canvass the returns of the primary
election for Senator. and to declare the
result. The call for the primary was
clear enough as to the appointment OF
this canyassing committee, but not
clear as to their full duties. The au-
thority to declare the result was not
vested in either committee. And II 10
Just as reasonable to suppose that the
old committee intended to retain it. as
to suppose to the contrary. And the
call being silent, the old committee had
as much right, and if anything a little
better right, to canvass the returns and
declare the result of an election they
themselves had called than the new com
mittee could have. We take no stock
at all in the argument that the old COM
mittee died the momer the polls closed
Saturday. So much for the old COM
mittee.
The new committee, il assuming au-
thority to declare the result OF the
primary in the Senator's race, violated
no law of propriets; but their failure 10
declare the result as it was; their re-
fusal to recognize Judge Erwin as the
nominee of Maury county to the Hohen-
valid convention; and their appointment
of a committee hostile to his nomination,
to 90 uninstructed but openly committed
to his defeat, was the most outrageous,
arrogant, brazen attempt to override
the expressed will of the people that
we have ever seen or heard or read OF.
We have seen and heard of some very
unfair and partisan committee actions
before the people had spoken. we
have seen and heard of some very high
handed and outrageous methods en-
ployed in delegated conventions to de-
feat the majority or override the minorl-
ty. But this is the first time We have
ever known or heard of a case, where
man was clearly elected at regularly
called primary, and committee
"puffed up with little brief authority,
arrogated to themselves the right and
power and privilege to set asi1e the
peoples verdict.

dressed to the Powers Of Europe by

MEMPHIS BRIDGE.
Fears That Changes Ia Mississippi
May Leave It High and Dry.

May Leave It High and Dry.
Memphis, Tenn. Sept 17.-Fears
are expressed that the big steel
bridge across the Mississippi River
here will be left high and dry by a
change in the course of the river.
President Winchell, of the Frisco
Railroad. the company owning the
bridge. has been telegraphed to come
to Memphis and look over the ground
in person ana see what is to be done
to save the practical loss of this S3, 600,
900 structure.
If the river changes, as some thinx
it may possible do, it would leave
Memphis a mile or two from the
river and would leave the bridge high
and dry and perfectly useless for
getting across the Father OF Waters.
as another bridge would have to be
constructed across the main channel.
There would be nothing but bayou
under the bridge.

One noticeable feature of the contest
thus far is the fact that only a COM
paratively few of the contestants are
really working as If they meant to do
business. OF the thirty contestants who
have reported points thus far in the
contest, fifteen Of them have apparent
ly relinquished all idea of attempting
to get higher in the list than they are
at present. For this lassitude they
may later be sorry for there are new
entries almost every day, and some Of
them will get to work before very long
and those who are now down near the
bottom will have the modification Of
finding themselves too far below the
limit of scholarships to obtain one.
1t is only fair to say to those who
have started and then stood still that
the infusion of new blood like this into
the contest will make their small scores
look ridiculous.
One young man haunted The Tribune
Office several days before the contest
began in apparent fear that he would
not get his outfit in time to begin work
on the. first day. The outfits were sent
out in order to reach the contestants
on the Saturday evening before the
opening day. \ By coincidence this
young mans outfit failed to reach him,
and he came to The Tribune office in
great perturbation on Monday after
noon to inquire why. He was given one
then, and departed apparently anxious
to make up for lost time. He has not
been seen since nor has he given the
slightest indication of his great desire
to win a scholarship. His is not an iso-

have subsidized mysteriously.
The young men however, who really
mean to make a success of this UNDER
taking and have consistently kept at
work are now showing splendid results.
Day after day, almost without fail,
they contribute a few points to their
score. They seem to have grasped the
idea that every little helps and that 1t
does not pay to relax single effort II
they mean to attain their desires.
In the previous two contests a large
part of the winners did not enter until
the contest was we'll started. In the
first one one of the contestants did not
enter until within two weeks of the
close ana tnen HnisHeu III iouil p'aee'
Another started fifteen days before the
close and wound up in seventh posi-.
tion.
If a contestant should begin today
with one yearly subscriber, counting
70 points. he would be in twenty-second
place with two yearly subscribers
counting "a points, he would go to four
teenth; with three yearly subscribers,
to eleventh; with four, as points, eight
place; five yearly subscribers 6o
points. seventh, 1t will thus be seen
that there is nothing in the contest,
so far as 1t has progressed, to dlscour-
age others from coming In.

r OR the past two years, or since
r. The Tribune inaugurated the idea
of Educational Contests in the
history of American newspapers. it
has been it's custom to give from time
to time q brief history Of each of the
educational institutions in which It's
scholarships have been offered. These
articles have been written with the
idea of bringing to the attention of
its contestants the character, history
and educational systems of each Of the
universities. colleges. preparatory
schools. conservatories and other edu-
cational institutions in which it Is pro-
posed to Introduce scholars through it's
Educational Contests.
This year there is a very large
number Of institutions of learning on
the list of The Tribune's Educational
Contest. In some of them number
of scholarships have been arranged for,
in others but one. From time to time
each of them will be depicted at some
length in our columns, and their spe-
cial characteristics. described for the
benefit of the. contestants who expect
to have a selection of the special re-
wards at the end of the contest. These
articles may help them to form an idea
as to what institutions they may de-
sire to go, or for which they may be
fitted to enter within as short a time
as possible.

integral calculus, each subject being
treated strictly from IL technical stand
point. Equally necessary for the pur-
poses of the engineer is an aCnuain-
tance with the theory and practice OF
draughting. Consequently, work in
this line is carried on parallel with
that in mathematics. Courses are Civ
en- in mechanical, perspective and free
hand drawing, together with mapping
and lettering. These are followed by
work in descriptive geometry. shades
and shadows, stereotomy machine
drawing. typographical drawing, struc-
tural plans and higher mapping and
plotting, Courses in pure science,
upon the principles of which depend
most engineering operations, are given
as follows: Two years in physics or in
chemistry, with one year in the alter
nate subject, one year each in metal
lurgy, mineralogy and geology, and
one-half year in botany, the work be-
ing given by lectures and recitations,
supplemented by a great deal of labor
atory practice. A course in shopwork
extending through one year insures
the familiarity with tools necessary
for the practical engineer. The spe-

Under the head of geodotic engineer
ing is treated the whole theory and
practice of surveying, beginning with
the elementary principles, including
the use and adjustment of field and
Office Instruments; the various methods
of land, Typographical, photographic,
mine, road, railroad, and city survey
ing; the computation of earthwork, the
economic theory of railroad location,
barometric and spirit levelling, and
ending with the higher astronomical
and geodetic operations. The field
work comprises extensive practice in
all of these lines.
Structural Engineering embraces the
study and practical application of the
principles of mechanics upon which
are based the design of bridges build

constructions.
Hydraulic and sanitary engineering
includes the discussion of systems of
irrigation, drainage and water supply;
the pressure of water against dams,
the design of reservoirs; the flow

been recently constructed. The athletic
exercises in the gymnasium and in the
field are under the direction of the very
competent and efficient professor of
athletics and director of the gym
naSium.
The Libraries.
The General Library contains about
$1,000 volumes and 10000 phamphlets
and is open to students daily except
Sundays. A reading room, abundantly
supplied with current literature, is
connected with it. In April. 1887, the
great historical library of Leopold Won
Ranke was purchased by Mrs. Dr.
John M. Reid and presented to Syra-
cuse University. The College of Medi
cine has valuable professional lib

The College of Law has the William c.
Ruger Law Library, the gift of Hon.
Lewis Marshall of New York; and it
has also the free use of the magnitl-
cent Court Of Appeals Library, To-
Gated on Clinton street.
The university museums contain ma
terial for illustrating the subjects of
geology, zoology, botany, chemistry
and archaeology.

sicians before being assigned to gym
nasum work or permitted to engage
in exciting games. College athletics
are encouraged. History and expe-
rience Justify this. Those who con-
denim them have never seen them, as
a rule. and know about them only from
exaggerated and sensational newspa-
per reports. Athletics at Syracuse are
wholesome and meet with encourage
ment.
Expenses.
Living expenses are very moderate.
Students obtain board in clubs at $2.25
and upward per week. Many Of them
belong to the college fraternities and
board at very reasonable rates at the
chapter houses. Students who need to
increase their income while in college
can frequently find employment Of va
rious kinds in the city. 1t is seldom
that deserving and capable students
cannot find the means Of earning mon
ey in occupations not inconsistent with
their college duties. A young man who
wishes to provide an income for HIM
self sufficient to pay his expenses while
studying at Syracuse University should

ulty and become amenable. like other
citizens, to the laws and ordinances Of
the city. Last year, however, Win

furnished dormitory, facing the cam
pus, was erected and is now occupied.
The Tribune's Scholarships.
The Tribune, through it's Education
al Contest. offers to two young men
scholarships in Syracuse University.
Each of these scholarships is valued
at $4S2 and will be awarded in accord
ance with the rules of The Tribune's
Educational Contest. In each case
the student will be entitled to select
any four-year course in the Liberal
Arts College, or, if he prefers, can take
an Engineering Course. If course
in the Liberal Arts college is selected,
his tuition ($75 per year, and incidental
expenses 1888 per year, will be paid for
four wears, amounting to $432. The
Engineering courses are more expen-
sive, the tuition alone costing 500 per
year. and if one of these courses Is
preferred The Tribune will pay the
tuition for four years and incidental
charges for one year. amounting 10
s433. making the value of the two
scholarships offered practically equal.

SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY.
It's History in Brief.

Syracuse University, founded in 1870,
Is, in it's academic department, a con-
tinuation Of Genesee College, which
fiourished at Lima. N. Y, from 1S49
to 1S71 and in it's medical department,
of the Geneva Medical College 1885,
1879, which was in part successor to
the Fairfield Medical College QS12-
1sss)
The faculty of the College of Liberal
Arts was inaugurated Aug. 81, 1871, and
the college opened in the Myers block
Sept. /, with Al students in attendance.
The College of Medicine opened the
following year, and in 1873 the College
of Fine Arts was organized. The latter
was an experiment in American educa-
tion. It's decided success has justified
the wisdom Of the departure. The
College of Law opened in 1895 and the
College of Applied Science was author
ized by the trustees on Jan. 90, 1901.
The University.
The university is situated on the
heights in the southeastern part of the
city of Syracuse, overlooking Onon-
daga Lake and Valley. 1t has never
had an epidemic or fatal accident. The
location for healthfulness and beauty
of scenery is unsurpassed.
The College Of Liberal Arts is espe-
cially strong. having in its faculty rep
resentatives Of forty different colleges
and universities of this country and
Europe. The courses have all been
reorganized and expanded to meet the
demands of the most progressive edu-
cational thought of the day. The
elective privileges are liberal, but are

student into consistent and logical
