BAND CONCERT.
The last band concert of the
year was given in the gymnasi-
UNI Wednesday afternoon. The
program was composed of selec-
tions from masters like Bach and
Verdi and was rendered in a
faultless way. The band concert
was followed by a piano concert
in the auditorium.
PRESIDENTS RECEPTION.
The annual reception of the
President was a brilliant affair.
The parlors of Stevens Hall were
most beautifully decorated and
were thronged by over five hun
dred guests. In the receiving
line were President and MRS.
Bryan, Chancellor Andrews of
the University of Nebraska,

ism," DR.. Andrews pointed out
the great work the Anti-imperi-
alists had done in indicating the
dangers of our new course. 1t
was of these dangers and prob
lens that he spoke.
The first problem dealt with
was that of consular and diplo-
matte service. The weakness of
the u. S. in this respect in the
past was made plain. Our ma
tion has had many statesmen
but few diplomats. AS a world
power our need of efficient rep
resentation abroad is far greater
today than ever before. The
nation must give more attention
to training her ministers and
consuls. The problem of colon
ial government is one that the
u. S. must solve. We must
avoid the mistakes that other ma
tions have made. The province
of government is to govern
not to interfere unnecessarily
with traditions and customs of
people. Life, liberty and prop
erty must be made secure in our
island possessions but no Ian
guage or religion should be
forced on any people. The U.
S. must have men in her colonial
governments who understand the
needs of an inferior people.
We must have the best of colon
ial governments.
The Monroe Doctrine in it's re-

cent interpretations was next
dealt with. "The Monroe ssDoc-
trine means that any nation of
Europe having control in Amer
lea shall not extend that control,
and those nations havingssno pos
sessions here shall not obtain
possessions. The Monroe Doc
trine should not be abandoned.
But we must not overlook the
fact that almost all the states of
South and Central America are
failures. Europe can give those
peoples better civilization. If
we refuse to allow Europe to do
so we are duty bound to better
conditions ourselves. The u. S.
is duty bound to aid the Spanish
America states in attaining
peace, stable and efficient gov
ernments and a more advanced
civilization. The problems of
the u. S. as a Pacific Ocean
power next occupied the speak
er's attention. The great future
of the Pacific region was brought
out and the necessity of the U.
S. maintaining her position as
the first power of the Pacific was
made clear. Our Pacific coast
will be a world center. 1t is vul-

was one of the most inspiring
ever heard in Pullman. Profess
sor Search held his audience in
closest attention and left an i'm
preston to be remembered. He
was especially powerful in his
application of stories as illustra-
tions.
In the evening the Rev. Mr..
Keener, of Southwick, Idaho,
delivered the annual address to
the Y. M. C. A. and Y. w. c.

crowded audience and was of
great interest.
DOMESTIC ART EXHIBIT.
Monday afternoon the gymna-

admiring the attractive Domes-

feminine apparel that was espec-

cannot be described by a mere

CLASS NIGHT.
On Monday evening the Sen

but merry audience in the college
chapel. The occasion was "Class

opened the show, made an espec-
ial hit with a combination of wit
and wisdom that stormed the
house. Byron Stimmel delivered
an up to date Jacob A. Riis lee

amply illustrated with pictures
of profs. ,convicts and other hard
cases. Some of the illustrations

love affairs of the Juniors were
done nicely and the curtain went
down with everyone wishing for
more.
THE SCHOOLS.
Tuesday evening occurred the
graduating exercises of the Ele

Business and the course in Pi-

received diplomas. The large
gymnasium was tastefully deco

Henderson Times
1t is all very well to talk about a
farmer taking twelve months to con
slider the matter Of marketing his cot
ton, but how many farmers are there
in Texas or in the South who are able
to carry their cotton crop for that
length of time? The suggestion made
by the Times Is timely and wise. But
1t puts It in the wrong way. 1t should
have said that the farmer should first
farm so that his cotton crop should
not be considered the sole food pro

else necessary for him to live and live

capable leadership has SO often baked
all effort toward an efficient organiza-
ton of farmers, that despair has well
rsgh taken the throne of hope in his
heart. Still there is no precious
metal that has not been tried in the
crucible. Repeated failure is some
times the price of successful issue
that is worth the gaining. The one
rock that has been the laundering of
all the farmers organizations has been
that of personal or partisan greed-a
greed that halted not at the wrecking
of the best interests of the people upon
whom all the progress and success Of
the government depends. Forewarned
Is not always forearmed, because this
old human greed and ambition has so
many ways Of ingratiating himself into
all human movements that he steals
upon us unawares in new forms and
by new ways The success of the cap
italistic organizations should be the
guiding star to us. Religion nor poll
tics, nor even race or color has been
allowed to feature in these organiza-
lions. The farmer to succeed must
take this lesson home, and must not
allow this party nor that party to dom
mate the organization. fractional
fights must not find an arena for ex-
ploltation either in our meetings or in
our councils. When the great iron
masters meet they talk of methods to
cheaper the product, to increase the
price or to increase the market for
iron. Farmers have right to use
common-sense business methods and
less dabbllng with the abstFuse prin-
ciples of government, and more atten-
ton to the business that we daily. fol-

with nearly 100000 members of
the Cotton Association and 100000
members of the Farmers Union, all
agreed on the matter Of pricing our
cotton, It appears to me that we are
getting in pretty good shape to have a
voice in fixing prices that will amount
to something. Mr.. Vim told us in
his speech at the Park about two men
paying $4,000 and $1,000 for member
ship in the Board of Trade in order to
help price our cotton, yet, strange to
say, many Of US won't pay rs cents for

The true spirit of cooperation is not
thing that can be taken on and put
off like a garment. It is matter OF
growth and development. The habits
of thought and action that have domi-
mated humanity for scores of centuries
cannot be radically changed in day
nor year nor generation. 1t must
be brought about slowly, SO that the
molecules may have time to rearrange
themselves in accordance with the new
conditions and governing laws. 1t has
taken three generations for co-opera-
ton to reach its present advanced
state in Great Britain. The long years
of struggle were necessary to educate
and prepare the people for the per-
manent success that they are now en-
joying. We Americans can profit by

innumerable millions of wealth to our nation. The law requires that all moneys accruing from the sale of public lands in thir- teen states and three territories, a five percent school fund, shall be set aside for the reclamation of the arid lands in these states and territories. As each project is undertaken an accurate ac- curate account is kept of all ex- penses and when the work is completed each acre irrigated is assessed a pro rata of the total cost and this the settlers must repay in ten annualinstallments, without interest. Already this fund totals $3O,OOO,OO and the irrigation of 1,SOO,OO0 acres is planned. The average value of irrigated land in the United Sta tes is SAY per acre. This acreage will therefore add $S7 7,OOO,OOO to the taxable property of the United States in land values. Ac- cording to the census report of 1900, the average annualincome of irrigated land is $15 an acre; on this basis $2S,OOO,OOO per annum will be added to the na- tion's wealth.-E.
