NEARLY ONE thousand bodies have been re-
covered from the General Slocum disaster at
New York and it is now believed that more
than twelve hundred persons lost their lives
in that shocking affair. A searching investi-
cation is now in progress to fix the blame for
for it will ever be brought to punishment. It
is certain that the vessel was in an unsafe con-
dition and that none of its life-saving appara-
tus was in working order. Over SIG, 900 has
been subscribed towards the relief fund and
more is being added daily.

The School of Agriculture.

There are over $50 pupils in the
school Of agriculture at ST. Anthony
Park. All these pupils are. taking the
regular three years course: No elect
i've courses are provided. The boy
or girl who enters is required to do the
work specified in each department for
the boys and girls respectively. = :;
Professor Mayne, principal Of the
school, says that if, the pupils were all
lowed to come in and select studies,
and no restrictions as to residence were
imposed, they would have $500 there
next year. Hereafter condition of
admission to the school will be a
previous residence of at least six
months on farm. This is expected
girls from the cities who go out there
without any knowledge of farm life, or
farm work, or without any expectation
Of ever living on a farm, but simply
for the purpose of getting the manual
training. or training in horticulture, or
animal husbandry, or, in the case of
girls, in the departments of domestic
science. --.s-.-..~
Five hundred and sixty pupils, and
only fifteen years old is the record of
this institution. 1t is certainly very
remarkable one and a convincing
proof that the regents of the university
are providing at last what the farm
ers of the, state want in the way of
education for their sons and daugh-
tiers. OF the $50, $50 are girls, and
the proportion of girls is increasing,
They have only been admitted about
three or four years. The students oc-
cupy dormitories and take their meals
together in large dining hall, con-
Quoted on the cooperative plan.
Living at this school is probably
cheaper than almost any other in the
country. Forty-one cents day pays
all the expenses Of heat, light, laundry,
janitor service, and board; $2.87
week for all living expenses is reducing
the cost of living to a minimum The
state owns the buildings used as
dormitories and as dining hall, and
charges no rent for these. The pupils
pay small contingent and entrance
fees, but the school year of six
months represents an outlay for liv-
ing expenses of not over SIS, and $500
would probably cover all expenses Incl
dent to the school. This provides, too,
very comfortable quarters in .well-con-
structed, steam-heated buildings COM
fortably furnished, and good substan-
tial meals.

work for the agricultural interests Of

"A Significant Incident.

Minneapolis honored DR.. Hosmer
last night, and in doing so honored
herself. fs-
The testim onial dinner given Dr.
Hosmer on the occasion Of his retire
ment from the office of librarian, and
his arrival at his SEVENTEEN year, was
such a tribute as might swell the heart
of any man, even as modest a man as
DR.. Hosmer, with pardonable pride.
There were about 200 present of the
kind for whose esteem and good will
a man Of DR.. Hosmer's stamp would
care most; and yet they were of the
men who do things in Minneapolis.
These gentlemen came together not to
applaud great commercial success,
great financial achievement. great in
dustria1 accom- plishnent. There was
absolutely nothing commercial in the
bringing together Of this goodly COM
pany. They came rather to pay their
respects to man who is unknown in
the world of commerce, who has moth
ing to show In the way of business sue
cess or wealth accumulation, but who
is simply a ScnOiar ana gentleman.
And yet the sincerity, heartiness, en-
thusiasm put into this tribute to this
modest citizen has never been excelled,
probably never equaled, on any SINH
lar occasion in the history of the city.
1t was a significant incident, inspir-
ing in the thought that after all, the
representative men of Minneapolis are
not concerned alone about commercial
affairs and business interests, but that
their hearts may be touched and
aroused and made to throb with de-
light and pleasure in contemplation of
the high character and the useful life
of a man whose attachments and ac-
tivities, tho distinguished and widely
recognized, lie entirely within the field
Of intellectual effort, educational
service, and moral influence.
1t is worth something to the city of
Minneapolis in the shaping Of it's ideals
and the moulding of it's character as a
community to have done what it did
last night, in paying this cordial
tribute to a scholar and a gentleman.

The Educational Graft. >

We have graft in public life, we
have graft In private life and now
President Norttrop, of the University
of Minnesota, reminds us that we have
graft in educational life.
Is not the cribbing student graft
err? He gets by deceitful means
something that he is not entitled to.
The political CRATER succeeds by de-
vious methods in getting possession Of
public funds without rendering service
for them, he uses official position to
return for dishonest and illegal serv-
ices.
The CRATER in private life abuses
personal instead of public confidence
and office and dishonesty accumulates
unearned wealth.
In the educational life the object of
endeavor is not wealth, asst is, gem
orally speaking in the outside world,
but mental training and knowledge.
There are certain tests by which it is
determined whether the student is
progressing towards his goal. The
immediate object of educational graft
Is to defeat these tests-to succeed,
that is to say, in making them indicate
the possession of educational attain
ments that are really nonresident.
The educational CRATER, like his
brethren elsewhere, gets something
that he is not entitled to.
It would be hazardous to assert that
Sc, o+,, ~

clined to think that there is. The

The average man refuses to become
indignant at the political, CRATER, re-
garding him rather as a clever fellow.
Public opinion among students does
not strongly condemn the cribber who
is not caught. The great offense Is to
be, detected. Students who would
never think of cribbing, themselves,
regard the cribber with much toler-
ance, and will even find amusement in
listening to his. accounts. Of how he
fooled the prof. with loose sheets,
'panoramas" Or communication with

When the educational graft is

better prospect of stopping CONNER

must be purified at its source LII

and the co-discovcrer with Darwin OF
natural selection is no mean authority
when it comes to induction from a long
array of well -ascertained facts and OBJ

book, we think. DR.. Wallace's argument
suggests, in fact solution of the problem
of future state in saying explicitly: "Of
course there may be, and probably are,
other universes, perhaps of other kinds of
matter and subject to other laws, perhaps
more like our conceptions Of ether, per-
haps wholly nOn-material and what we
can only conceive of as spiritual" It is
worthy Of note that DR.. Wallace does
firmly believe in future state of exist
ence. Current Literature for the rnontf h

A Question That Will 1'Not Come
Off,

F. 1t is plain that the time is approach
ing.in this country when the question
of reciprocity with. Canada must be
taken up and disposed Of. It will not
down. Even the announcement, now
more than a year old, that all sorts of
tariff revision would be deferred un-
til 1905 has had no effect in stopping
the warm discussion of the topic. It
is true that much is said against it,
as we'll rs for, it, but that only goes
to prove that the question is at last ar
irving at national stature and must be
definitely disposed of. The people are
making up their minds. The time
must come when they will have them
made up. We must decide to try to
get reciprocity with Canada Or decide
not to try.
The question bobs up in congress re-
peatedly. The Detroit Board Of Com
MERGE is out in an address demanding
the reconvening of the joint high
commission. Governor Cummins is
boldly proclaiming his belief in it in
Iowa. and is actually making state
campaign Iartlys on it. President
Schurman Of Cornell declares for re-
ciproc1ty with Canada. LATE Young of
Des Moines speaks at Topeka against
it. Country papers all over the north
west are discussing the subject both
pro and con, with a remarkably large
number Of pros. Anti-reciprOcity
members Of the Minnesota delegation
in congress are preparing to defend
themselves.
Almost every important business or.
ganization that has had a national
convention within two years, has de-
clared for reciprocity with Canada.
The National Board Of Trade at it's
recent meeting singled out Canada for
special mention as a country deserving
of reciprocity. The organ of the Pro-
tective Tariff league has stopped fight
ing democrats and begun fighting re-
publican advocates Of reciprocity.
Fully IS per cent. Of the influential
daily press of the country is in favor
Of reciprocity with Canada, and the
remaining rs per cent is devoting
much space to combating it.
Who will say that it is not a live
question, even if it Is a long way from
action?

principles, good business capacity, and
that success can = no q longer be relied
upon from merely laundering along in
the old Wasteful methods Of doing
things in certain ways simply because
his father did. Farming has been
carried on in this country to a great
extent on that plan, but such institu-
lions. of which the Minnesota School
of Agriculture is the finest example we
know Of, are doing much to correct the
unfortunate notion that intelligent,
scientific training and business meth
DDS are not needed on the farm.
