The Rhodes Scholarships.

1t appears that the appointment by
Sovernor Orman of two Yale under
graduates to represent Colorado at OK.
ford University, under he terms of
the Cecil Rhodes scholarship bequest,
was premature. Undoubtedly the
governor acted in good faith. but he
also acted without authority, and not
in accordance with the plans Cecil
Rhodes desired to have carried out
The young men named by Governor
Orman are worthy of the honor. but
will probably have to be disappointed.
The commissioners of the Rhodes
bequest have decided that the presi-
dents of the colleges In state shall
nominate the bene6ciaries under the
will. The Colorado college presi-
dents will undoubtedly name men who
who represent local systems of educa.
tion This was the intention OF Mr..
Rhodes, and IT is rs il should be.
without in any way understanding
the education or qualifications of the
Yale men, the people of this state
would greatly prefer that the Colo.
RADIO men at Oxford be graduates of
srates universities. Graduates of our
colleges are as thoroughly trained in
most ways rs are Yale men, and they
are certainly better entitled to repre-
sent the state at oxford. Colorado

Pool Grinstead. editor of the Wathena

part in the new anti-maehine move
ment. He has been there before and
has enjoyed all the anti-machine bust
ness that he has any use for Some
body else can have what is coming to

In an editorial in his paper on the re-

machine, Grinstead gives his view of
the matter. Some of the things he says
are true and others are not strictly so.
Among other things he says:

Native beef is out of the question

OF the bad ones also. but you can over
come these just as you can overcome
the naughty traits of q child.
IF people would learn to know horses
they would become more noble hearted.
for a fine natured horse is a splendid
creature and a wonderful model to fol-

up I wouldn't give a cent for horse
or a human being without grit If a
man loves horses he is sure to be broad
minded and liberal of heart. I would
tell the girls that such a man is all
right AS for me. I haven't any use for
the man who doesn't care for them.

interesting for having an outside inter-
