The reason why Mr.. Hearst las de

party is because Of the fact that he.
above all the men now active in Jour

President Butler, of Columbia Uni

Should Have Endowment.

New York, Oct. 1.-Two conspicuous
features in the annual report of Presi-
dent Nicholas Murray Butler, of Co.
lumbia university, deal with the large
financial needs of the university and
athletics. President Butler finds the
institution needs 100000 for col
lege hall, university hall and the law
school, although nearly 100000 have
been donated to the university In the
last three years.
DR.. Butler speaks favorably Of the
system Of control Of athletics in vogue
at Columbia and continues: From
a theoretical point of view much may
be said for the endowment of athletic
sports and the abolition Of gate re-
ceipts as has often been proposed"

Silas G. Swallow, was the principal
speaker at meeting of local prohibi-
tionists here at the Salvation army
auditorium. In his address DR.. Swal-
low said he had found 1t difficult in
former campaigns to get matter into

this year the publishers sought articles
on the subject of prohibition. He said,
In speaking Of the dedication of the
saloon in New York by Bishop Potter,
that he did not censure the bishop for
such an act; that the bishop was logi-
cal in consecrating the offspring of the
political parties of which he has been
supporter for years. II he would
say anything to the bishop 1t would
be that he should pray to be delivered

Associate Justice Brewer Declares
the Work of the Lawyer and

st. Louis, Sept. 29.-The first uni

held under the auspices Of the Ameri-
can Bar association, convened in Fes-
tval hall at the conclusion Of the
American Bar association convention.
Eminent lawyers and jurists from all
over the world were in attendance.
The congress was called to order by
F. w. Lehman, Of st. Louis, chair
man Of the exposition committee on
congresses. President D. R. Francis
welcomed the congress to the exposi-
ton and introduced the president Of
the congress, Hon. David ]. Brewer,
associate justice of the supreme court
Of the United States. President Brew
er was greeted with an ovation of ap-
plause. He spoke briefly, saying in
part: II affirm that the work Of the
lawyer and jurist, invisible as 1t may
be to the physical eye, is of far-reach-
ing value to humanity, for of what
avail would be all the achievements Of
science If life, liberty and property
were not made sacred by the just ad-
ministration of law? The fabric Of our
civilization is indeed a thing Of
beauty, but 1t is made strong and en-
during only by the golden thread Of
equal, exact and universal justice. All
the material splendor Of this EXPOSE
ton will soon pass away, but the work
done in the various congresses here
gathered will make an enduring i'm
preston upon our advancing social
life. Let us not be turned away from
our high purpose by any glitter Of gold,
or temptations of luxurious life, but
ever remember that justice in the one
thing beneath the eternal blue"
Former Secretary of State John W.
