HIMSELF MADE DICTATOR

st. Petersburg, May 1s.---Puhlie opin-
ION II greatly excited as ID how the
emperor and the government will meet
the. defiant attitude Of the lower house
lof parliament. Many Constitutional
Democrats are not vet convinced that
the government will seek compromise.
They see indications that the bureaucra-
scy il preparing for desperate fight. The
Rech, their organ, still considers it pos
siblc that an attempt may be made
TO dispense parliament, and also prints
IA ruinor that Count Mite III trying to
bring about coup detat, which would
result III bis being appointed q dictator,
backed BY the council Of the empire.
The schcnle most favored by the bu-
reaucracy is TO allow parliament to
formulate its demands and ventilate its
grievances for two months, and then dis
solve parliament. Notwithstanding this
RS ionary talk. the faY-sighted realize
thar such step, in view Of the great
agitation in the country, would be fatal,
and that the governments only chance
is 10 compromise with parliament. This
certainly is the emperor's present inten-
zion.
SO soon as the reply to the speech
from the throne II adopted by The lower
house Of parliament, the leaders OF the
Constitutional Democrats viii introduce
~ bill providing fer the establishment 'of
civil liberties and demand It's immediate
consideration.
The debate on the replslto the speech
from the throne was resumed when par.
lament met yesterday morning. Some
Of the members are already showing
signs Of impatience az d result Of the
endless stream OF talk. Paragraphs de.
handing the removal of martial and
other exceptional laws and the abolition
Of the council of the empire were passed
without amendment.
Count Heyden, prominent member
Of the Right, took the first occasion to
declare that the Right did not oppose
in principle the substance OF the reply
TO the speech from the throne, although
il regarded some Of the paragraphs as
unfortunate and unnecessarily offensive
to his majesty.

The Walsh Revival Meet;nos.

Last evening the preacher chose for
his text the familiar words found in
John iii: Is. After speaking Of the
great love Of the Father In making such
ample provision for our salvation he
very forcibly pointed out that as VIC
might close the blinds. draw the shades
and shut the sunlight out of our homes
so we might close the avenues of our
spiritual nature and not allow Gods
love to enter our hearts. He urged. all
who had not already done so to accept
the great gift so freely offered.
At the close of the sermon the
evangelist called upon all the young
converts for word of testimony and
a large number responded. 1t was in
deed an inspiration to hear so many
young men and women publicly ac-
knowledge Christ as their Saviour and
express their determination to serve
Him. Both pastor and people are re-
joicing over the results of this special
effort so far and are hoping for still
greater things in the few days which
remain.

BOWDOIN COLLEGE.
Another Letter to Bates Relative to the
Debate Challenge.

brunswick, Nc. Feb. 27.-(SpeciaD.-As
result of the meeting of the rally COM
mittee held today, it has been decided
to hold that event Friday evening, April
Eowdoin and the gatherings have proved
to be among the most pleasing events of
the college year. Tho rally committee
this year consists of Hawkesworth '0i.
chairman: Donerty 07. jerks '0G. Hodg-
don 'O6, Putnam 'OG. Fox Os. Pike 'O7.
Holman '06. Cox 'OS. Weston 'OS.
Up to this date no reply has been re-
ceivcd from Bates College relative to the
debating invitation extended by Eowdoin.
In view of some of the comment made
upon the letter forwarded by, Bowdoin,
President Mitchell of the Bowdoin De-
batting Council today sent the following
letter to the debating manager of Bates:
Manager Bates College Debating Team.
Lewiston. Maine.
Dear Sir:-Although I have as vet re-
ceived from you no official acknowledge
ment Of the receipt of Bowdoin's invita-
ton to Bates for a debate this coming
purporting to come from Eates people, in
timating that Bowdoin has submitte ed
this invitation under conditions impos-
sible for Bates to accept. In behalf of
our council | hasten to say that Bowdoin
suggested definite terms merely as ba
sis for negotiations. in order that no time
might be lost. There is, however, at Bow
doin a disposition to concede to the wish
eS of Bates in almost all details. If Bates
prefers to hold the debate in Lewiston.
there will he no objection from Bow
doin. If Bates prefers to have Bowdoin
submit the list of judges, Bowdoin will
gladly agree. If Bates REQUESTS another
date. BOwdOin will try to make her plans
accordingly. In all other respects, except
one. BOwdoin has stipulated in her sug
gested agreement, the terms under which,
as We understand it. Bates has been az
cuStomed to hold debates. The one con-
ditiOn which Bowdon feels Obliged Ia
llrse is that there be no faculty coaching
for either team; because the faculty and
students of Bowdoin are firmly of tn.
opinion that such contests should be be-
tween the students, and the students
only.
1T can hardly be maintained that our
invitation allows insufficient time for
preparation. The terms Of the agreement
suggested by Bowdoin give fully as much
time as has ever been allowed in the Am.
herst- Bowdon debates; two weeks moro
time than is allowed in the Rowdoin
Clarke debate of this year; and four
weeks more than is ever allowed at Har.
ward. at Yale. and at Princeton. In view
of these facts I feel that it can hardly
be said that Bowdon suggests an TN
reasonably short time for preparation for
this debate.
Il trust this letter will make clear tho
spirit of fairness with which the invita-.
ton is rendered, and the desire of Bow.
dom College TO concede to all the wish
cs of Bates College. For obvious reasons
an carly reply will! be appreciated.
Very truly yours,
III. E. MITCHELL.
