GRADUATES ASKED TO
SAVE GALEsBURG COLLEGE

DIR. Thomas McClelland, president
of Knox college. gave banquet
Tuesday night at Galesburg to the
resident graduates, and 200 were
present. In the addresses il devel-
oped that the meeting had been call
ed to consider the financial needs OF
the college and to enlist the resident
graduates in plan TO meet them.
According to the statements made
by DIR. McClelland, Treasurer y. j.
Perry, and members of the executive
committee. the college is in financial
straits. and a deficit of $4,000 has al
ready accumulated. DR.. McClelland
said:
I'VE have a deficit of $4,000 to $1O.-
900 annually. The problem is to raise
500 900 for the endowment fund and
$50, 900 to meet the deficit now ac-
Tcrued.' =
Treasurer Perry showed that the
decreasing revenue of the college is
due to the reduction of the interest
rate.
ut COSTS" said Mr.. Perry, 1887 900
n year to run the college. The in
come falls $1,000 to $4,000 short of
that
Cyrus VI. Avery, a trustee, said; Il
cannot see how we are going 10 con-
tinue to run the college on $4,000
year when the expenses are 1000.
The board of trustees have bound
themselves personally to contribute
$50. 900 in order to keep the college
ship from scuttling."
Mr.. Avery then revealed that the
plan is to raise 100000 in addi-
ton TO that which the trustees have
agreed to raise. He said the board
had become so ashamed of the deficit
it had agreed to wipe it out.
1t was then proposed that the 1,3OO
graduates of the college scattered
over the country be asked to contri-
butte on an average 500 each and that
the home graduates organize the
movement.
Clark +. Carr made an appeal that
the college be not allowed to go
down. The meeting ordered the APP
pointment of a committee TO organ
ize the local graduates for the work.

CuIIom and the Cabinet,

Senator Cullom was asked the
other day why he did not trot out an
Illinois man for secretary of the
treasury when ii became known that
Mr.. Gage had decided to retire and
that the president was looking for
his successor. "Neither my state nor
myself had a candidate for the
place." said the senator, land if there
had been would have felt doubtful
about presenting the matter at the
White House. / recommended n man
for a cabinet position once, and from
the way it turned out l made up my
mind / would not do il again. 1t was
when General Grant was president.
There was a certain Illinois man who
wanted to be secretary of the treas
ury. / won't mention his name, for
he is living yet, and as he didn't get
the place it wouldn't be fair to tell
it. / told President Grant about the
man and sung his praises as we'll as~I
could, for he was really an able citi-
zen and would no doubt have filled
the office creditably. Grant simply
waited until got through, looked at
me quietly for n minute and then
said: Senator. don't you think this
business of selecting n cabinet is a
great deal like a man picking out a
wife? Don't you think a man ought
TO do the choosing himself% j stud

of the expensive snobbishness of
Washington society out of business.
Surely the president of the United
States, by the power of example and
tactful precept, could and should
make it impossible for the poorest
man to feel that he or his family was
being or would be humiliated if he
were to respond to his country's call
for service which his country needs.
Official salaries are as rule high
enough; indeed as a rule they are too
large. What we need at Washington
is not larger official salaries, but less
official extravaganza.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1902-01-02
Social Extravaganza at the Capital

There comes a cry from the gov
eminent officials at Washington par
ticularly from those of the higher
grade, that their salaries are made
quate to cover the cost of living at
the capital as social ethics there
seem to demand. Cabinet officials,
for instance, find that they are eX-
pected to live in style far beyond
their salaries of $1,000 per year.
This means that in the Washington
of today a self-resPecting man of
modest means cannot accept a call
to serve his country without choos-
ing between financial ruin and those
painful, if in one sense ignoble, suf-
ferings of himself and his family
which come through social sntibs and
Sights. And while sensible people
despise these sights, they do not at
tempt to deny their force and effect.
What is the solution? Are only those
talents that are backed by wealth to
be at the service of the government
Or shall official salaries be raised
Or is there another solution?
Had we a Thomas jefferson in the
White House, another solution would
be found very speedily. In 1901 when
JEFFERSON WIS L
social display and extravaganza at
Washington were rampant. Official
dom had begun to ape the style and
profiigacy of foreign courts, and was
raising a cry, as it is now, for ineTeas-
ed salaries. President Jefferson at
once inaugurated an era of reform in
which he was the leader in person.
All style and fOrmalities at the White
House were done away with and a
simplicity in official business and So
cial intercourse was adopted that has
come down TO us today in the term
"Jeffersonian simplicity Foreign of
fcfals and home officials complained,
but Jefferson by the force of his eX-
ample, made the royalists and the
dudes and JenlSinses Ego away back
and sit down. Jefferson wouldn't
brook any foolishness, and while he
carried his simplicity" to an extreme
that would probably not be necessary
today, it was needed under circum-
stances then existing, and it ''wOn the
day"
The "other solution" may be deli
cate and difficult. But the problem
can be solved, and President Roose-
Welt should solve it. Let him adopt
a "Jeffersonian simplicity" sufficient
for the emergency, and a reform will
be inaugurated that will drive some
