One unexpected effect Of the Erickson

1t is not too much to say that the

ceeded beyond the expectations of its
founders and promoters 1t has stimu-
lated scores Of students, both in and
out Of the league, to endeavor to ex-

1t has surprised it's friends by produc-
ing higher grade of work in the semi
final and final contests than anyone
supposed the high schools were capable
ola grade of work. Professor McDer-
mott declares, equal to the best the
university could do not many years
ago. The following appreciation 10
taken from the Minnesota Daily:
Since the organization of the High
School Debating league, the staIllard
of university debate has risen wonder
fully. The number of students who en-
ter debating contests has increased
greatly, and many are as well prepared
now in their freshman year as they
were in the senior year before the High
School league was in vogue. Now many
debaters who come forward as fresh
men have. already had three or four
years training in the high school. The
interest in the contests is as great as
that in football. Even many schools
which are not in the league have de-
veloped fine material and have sent
strong debaters to college. The in
crease in the membership of literary

The Senate's Trespass Report.

1t seems that Bowling, P. E., did not
have the exclusive franchise to "vin-
dictate the AUDITOR Office The SEN
ate had a committee of investigation
and that committee made a report. The
senate committee went a little farther
than Dowling's in its work, however,
and sought to vindicate the facts rather
than any individual. This report says:
Undoubtedly the result of the ex-
animation made by the public examiner
has been highly beneficial to the state.
having brought about the adoption of
better methods and more careful rules
management of the great public lands
and mineral interests. " g.
And further the report adds: 4
The reforms inaugurated since said
examination and probably as result
thereof, with reference to the conserva-
ton of those interests by the enforce
ment of more careful methods, are much
to be commended. ....,. ,s -s.
The committees say that owing to
the fact that there was no cordiality
between the examiners and auditor s
Offices collateral facts in the possession
of the auditor were not brought out,
but that if they had been no doubt the
examiner report would have been
modified. 1t is difficult to see where it
would have been essentially modified.
1t was but transcript Of the auditor s
returns in regard to public lands.
Often there was no comment except to
quote the law showing what the auditor
should have done alongside the report
which showed what he had done. IT.
as the senate committee says, the exam,
iner's report has been highly beneficial
to the state, then it is just as well that
it was not modified. If it had not
struck clear note, the reforms which
have proved boon to the state would
never have been brought about. The
changes Of method in the land depart
ment are nothing but nearer approach
to- that enforcement Of the law which
the examiner insisted upon. s$
The only other change Of method is
the adoption by the legislature Of the
recommendation Of Governor johnson
that the state auditor be taken off the
timber board and the attorney general
put on. The attorney general has also
been given more help and the state will
look to his office not only to enforce
the law for the future but to recover
wherever possible from those who have
robbed the state in the past. s3S
