LAW CLASS OF 1905
TURNS MORMON DOWN
Spirited Contest for the Election Of Of
fcers in Legal Department of
Columbian University.

Israel Emmerson Wiley. a Mormon.
will not be president OF the senior law
class OF Columbian University. and
there is rejoicing in the, camps e le
Gentiles. Willey's defeat may pr
be regarded as a latter-day miracle a
the boot on the other leg. and the tale
Of how the follower of the prophet was
downed will be told in hushed tones
among the champions. and be handed
down from father TO son.
To have. or not 10 have. a Mormon
as president OF the law class OF 1904
was the question presented to the stu
dents over two weeks ago. East night S
election OF J. A Scott. OF Missouri. was
the answer.
With grim determination the boys"
girded for the strife. Unabashed by the
cry OF Mormon" the followers Of the
Utah man stuck close to their candi-
date. while Raley's followers, not TO be
outdOne, chung as close TO him as broth
ers. And so the situation might have
remained for the rest of the year had
not the need for a class executive been
realized by both sides.
Three ballots were cast without a de-
Gliding vote. In the first, Wiley and
Raley, the candidate of the fraternity
element, each received Is votes, and

In the next two ballots Willey's vote
creased. not sufficiently. however. to
give him the coveted majority. a dead
lock was declared. and a motion intro
duced for a new nomination OF candi-
dates.
The former candidates withdrew their
names. and on compromise. Mr.. Scott
received the election.
Mr.. Scott Is not fraternity man,
hence the result of the election IS yir-
tually regarded as victory for the nom
fraternal element IN the class.

"horse" is found, and the word be-
comes "horsage." The change tends to
confusion, but none the less 'horsage"
and average" are identical since in
the old time French an "aver" was

dictionaries, and in one of Burns pO-
ems, "A Dream" he alludes to horse

performed was estimated according to
