WHY THERE SHOULD BE
A NATIONAL UNIVERSITY


outside of the university classes.
One of the chief features of the in
stitution would be the study of sub
.jects in which the National Govern
ment is already at work. The vast
work of the Agricultural Depart
ment. the many scientific bureaus
under the other departments. the
Capitol, Library, parks, gardens,
and laboratories would be immense
aids to original research and
work.
believe that the university
should have buildings and ample
appropriations for its work. This
phase of the subject, however, is
not taken up by the present bill.
which is really only beginning
for the plan and which differs little
from the other similar measures
introduced during the present ses-
sion.
There have been some objections
raised to national university. l
do not consider them good ones.
The argument that sectarian insti-
tutions and the sects themselves
would oppose non-sectarian in
stitution is not a good one. If it is
true it should not be true.
do not care at this time to dis
cuss the possibility, which of
course suggests itself. that the ma
tional university might well work
with the Carnegie Institution. So
far as / know, there has been no
consideration of this question.

President Washington believed
that America should have a great
national university. 1t was one OF
his cherished plans. 1t was one OF

the United States should follow his
lead in this regard, as it has done
in so many other ways with signal
success"

Commander Of the New Maine.

Philadelphia Bulletin - The suggestion
that Captain Sigsbee shall be the com
nander OF the new Maine will be cor
daily seconded. The Navy Department
has done well 10 perpetuate the title OF
the unfortunate battleship whose wreck
lies in Havana Harbor, and it is only ht-
ting that the officer who kept his head
in the tragedy of February Is, 1898, should
assume command Of the craft whose fight
ing prowess is SO much superior TO that
Ct her namesake.

Cleveland Plain Dealer-There can be
no serious objection to the choice of Mr.
Reid for such a mission He is a repu-

double advantage of being born in Ohio
and of being a good all-around news
paper man of much experience. These
characteristics qualify him for any posi-
ton that comes in his way.

MIR ]. Chauvin, an old resident and mer-

Sanders Garter patronage squabble has

Made Good Indians of Sioux.

Made Good Indians of Sioux.
Away back in 1862, when mere child
/ saw a wholesale hanging of Indians
which made lasting impression on my
memory" said Mr. C. L. Washburn, a
| leading lawyer of Duluth, Mimi, last
night at the Raleigh.
They were all of the Sioux tribe, and
had been participants in one of the most
diabolical butcheries of white people that
ever occurred in our history.
with the savagery of demons they had
tomahawked scores of helpless women and
children. 1t was thought proper to teach
them terrible lesson, and the original
sentence condemned about 200 OF the tribe
to death.
president Lincoln, however, modified
the order so that only thirty eight SUI
fered the extreme penalty. They were
hanged at Mankato. The others were
given terms of imprisonment
Upon the gallows the doomed braves
showed no signs of fear, but went TO their
doom with stoical Indifference, chanting
war songs up to the very moment of their
execution.
What Mississippi Levees Accomplish
Judge R. S. Taylor, of Fort Wayne, Ind,
who is at the Ebbitt is a member of the
Mississippi River Commission, and has
been on that board continuously for TWEEN
ty- one years, or almost from the date of
it's organization.
THE protection of the lands lying along
the Mississippi's banks and subject to its
overflow, by the construction OF levees has
been amply justified by results said
Judge Taylor. During my connection
with this work a tremendous amount OF
good has been accomplished. In that
time the Government has spent about
sl5, 900 900 and States and communities in
the neighborhood of s20.00O,000.
mo other plan of protection save the
levee system is practicable. The fact
that $4,000 square miles of country, en-
bracing the richest alluvial lands OF the
United States, are saved to cultivation by
keeping off the water in times OF food. is
ample justification for this State and ma
tional expenditure. The time will never
come when the Father of Waters Will not
