EVERY AMERICAN is proud of Admiral Dewey
and will stand by his assertion that we have
the finest equipped navy in the world. Every
one of our brave tars will be glad to hear the
bluff sea dog of Manila give so decided an opin-
ion concerning our sea prowess. 1t is pity his
words got garbled or were so written or repor-
ted as to provoke bit of anger in Germany.
Our great admiral no more wants quarrel
with the Fatherland than any other sensible
American. In using the German navy by
way of comparison with our own he meant
no offense that would provoke some sort of re-
taliation. 1t is quite likely the whole thing,
which was never intended to get into print,
will be duly explained and the good work of
getting nearer to Germany will 90 on

FORGED CREDITS
Wouldn't Pass Muster - Committee
Made Startling Discovery.

One of the University committees
who has to do with such matters, has
made the startling discovery that a
young man ambitious TO enter the
freshman class, and burning with an
honest desire TO acquire some know
ledge of the higher branches, present.
ed an elaborate and satisfactory list
of forged credits. The list was sign
ed by the principal of one of the lead
Jug High Schools of the State. IN
fortunately, that principals signature
was familiar to a member of the COM
mittee, whose suspicious were arous-
ed Investigation showed that text
books and studies not pursued in that
particular school were recorded. This
one blunder caused the trouble, and
the ambitious student is not now a
regular attendant at classes.

NOT THE ATHLETIC COMMITTEE
Member of that Body wants it known
they had Nothing to do with Case of
Ben Stuart.

A member of the Athletic Commit
tee, of the University faculty, states,
and desires it stated, that Ben Stuart
of Parkersburg was not disqualified by
the Athletic Committee, and that the
item to that effect in yesterdays NEW
DOMINION was an error.
The committee on Classification and
Grades were responsible for the action
in Mr.. StuarJ's case. His name never
came before the Athletic Committee.
They have not considered the eligibll-
ity of any candidate for the football
team, aud have never decided that
Mr. Stewart was ineligible.
The statement in question was given
to the New DOMINION by one of the
officers of the Athletic Association
and was freely circulated over town.
The Athletic Committee has been
roasted several times for things it has
not done aud the members of it are
somewhat touehy about reports being
circulated about their actions.

Local Railroad men say they look for
Trouble with the b. IL o.

Local railroad men when they will
talk declare that it looks like trouble
between the men and officials. The
meeting of the grievance committees
in Baltimore with she officials has
heen productive of little good so far
and unless the officials give in the
men will be ordered out. They OBJ
ject to many things but the practice
of double heading with one crew and
refusing to pay over time is what has
caused the biggest friction.
One Of the railroaders who makes
Morgantown his headquarters stated
last night that he would not be sur
prised to see every wheel on the road
aside from mail trains stopped next
week.
