EnrCITION TABLOIDS.

The replies which We published yesterday
from a number Of college presidents to The
Tribune's request for their opinion OF President
Buffers project OF a two years course at
Columbia clearly show that HIS suggestion has
not impressed them favorably. They have had
no opportunity for careful consideration of the
wide departure from the long established prac-
tice OF American institutions Of learning which
he proposes, and for that reason presumably
do not take up. or merely dllude to- that part
of his plan which provides for an earlier en-
trance into professional life; but of the propo-
sition 10 grant the degree Of A. p at the end OF
two years they do not hesitate 10 signify in cour-
teous terms their emphatic dsapproval In
their view Of the matter we think a great ma
jority OF men who have earned that degree will
concur. not chiefly we should hope. from any
ignoble feeling o. jealousy. but because they
believe that the educational standard which
A. B. denotes. not with perfect uniformity. OF
course, ought not 10 be lowered
President Butler is confident that the student
would gain rather than lose by the compression
OF the course into two years. inasmuch as more

RHODE ISLAND AND REcIpRocITr


The platform OF the Rhode Island Republican
State Convention, adopted yesterday. is an
other strong indication Of party and popular
sentiment upon the question OF Cuban reci-
prOcity. There is no State IN the Union more
strongly devoted 10 protection than is Rhode
Island, and IL is inconceivable that the domi-
nant party there should commit itself 10 any
policy hostile 10 that system. Yet there was
yesterday no equivocatlon in dealing with the
Presidents policy OF reciprocity with Cuba
We record our unreserved approval Of the
administration OF President Roosevelt" said
the Rhode Island Republicans. unanimously
and with great enthusiasm; and then they
added: Especially do we approve his wise al
''ttude with reference 10 our relations with the
new republic OF Cuba" That covers the
whole ground. II was not necessary to specify
reciprocity. The Presidents attitude COMPRISED
thar ia general and IN detail The Republicans
Of Rhode Island have put themselves Oh record
as especially approving the policy of liberal
reciprocity with Cuba.
Such an utterance Enthusiastically signifies one
thing-namely. that in the opinion of those who
made il reciprocity with Cuba would not i'm
pair nor endanger the protective system. As
more than one New England Representative
and Senator judiciously declared last winter
such reciprocity would not weaken. but would
actually strengthen the protective system. and
tionists that they advocated H. The Rhode ISL
and Republicans are of that mind, and in being
so they honor themselves and their party.

Mr. Vreeland is man OF too much ability and

notion that the corporations which he manages

vreeland is a giant physically and in the
pacity for the management OF street traffic
Why should he waste his time in trying to

When the Schenectady Trades Assembly
passed the resolution yesterday recommending
the expulsion from the local unions OF members
who are also members OF the National Guard
the cause Of organized labor was materially In
iured. because the action was an open decIara-
ton Of war against the men who are organized
for the purpose Of protecting the life and prop
erty Of the citizens Of the State. The fear that
the opposition of the union may deprive them
Of work and their means OF support may cause
some men TO withdraw from the National Guard
but their places will be taken by men who can
not be intimidated. The change will be OF ad-
vantage 10 the Guard. while organized labor will
have earned for itself the condemnation OF all
men who take pride in the citizen soldiery.

WILLIAM MEYERS coLLAPsEs
Breaks Down in Penitentiary and
Cries Bitterly.

Deputy Sheriff NJ. B. Curkendall
returned Monday morning from
Moundsvllle, where he placed William
Meyers, slayer of James ]. Cbildes, In
the ,penitentiary. Mr.. Curkendail
brought back with him the conyicts
valuables, such as ia finger ring and SO
on, which he will give to Mrs. Meyers,
He reports Meyers in bad mental and
physical condition. A noticeable
change came over him as they neared
Moundsville, and, when the brakeman
called out the name of the station, he
trembled fearfully, The moment he
entered the prison he completely col.
lapsed. His nerve left him entirely
and he cried bitterly. The officer left
him in a bad frame of mind. he de-
clared that he had not the slightest
idea at the time that he had killed
Childers.
