SOMEBODY'S BLUNDER.


The correspondence between M7.
Bryan and Judge Owen 7. Thompson,
published in the Associated Press
some DAYS .ag2 will1be regarded ~
those who read it as remarkabie
Somebody has made a great blunder-
whether ii is Mr.. Bryan or JUICE
Thompson We do not know.
Many will remRmber thai there was
contest in Illinois prior to and end
ing in the national Democratic cen
yention of 1904 To many its decision
seemed unjust II was charged that
the will of the majority of the Illinois
convention had been overridden by
the arbitrary decisions OF the CHAR
man II was admitted that there had
been irregularities in the action Of
that convention Mr. Bryan made a
minority report against the sea- inS
OF what, was termed the Hopkins dele
CATION. He made bitter fight, but ths
convention decided against him by a
vote of 6I7 TO 299 AS is well known,
he supported the nominees of the con
vention In spite of the ISOLATION
with the committeeman from ILLINOIS,
Now the Illinois convention Is about
10 meet, and it is proposed to repudl
ate the national committeeman from
Illinois. MIR. Bryan had right q
write and ask Mr. Sullivan 10 resirr
his position. but after the bitter ligh
made in the national convention ht
had little reason to think tina Mr.. SUI
liyan would comply with his request
MIR BRYAN had also right 20 write
10 personal or political friend an'
make suggestions a. 70 the course ~
should pursue We do not know tina
MIR Bryan did more than this, aud
he did no more there 4; no cause io
ceusure 80 far as ne IS concerned
But the giving out of the letter lu
publication gives. the matter a di
agreeable appearance If Mr.. Brya
did not authorize It's publicatiu
Judge Thompson made great mi

STATEHOOD BILL
North Dakota Senator Introduces
New Measure, on Two
State Plan. -

Washington, March s.-Senator Nc
Cumber of North Dakota today intro
duced substitute for the statehood
bill, creating one state of Oklahoma
and another Of Indian Territory, the lat
ter under the name of Sequoia, in honor
of the Cherokee scholar of that name,
and entirely eliminating New Mexico
and Arizona. He made an argument
against the consolidation Of the terri
tories into fewer states, contending that
more western states were necessary to
give the agricultural and other trans
Mississippi interests strong representa-
ton in congress.
He predicted in the near future the
west would have mue!l larger popula-
ton than the east, and said that even
if present boundary lines were pre-
served it would still be impossible to
secure as many states as there were
east of the Mississippi, and that there
fore the balance Of power in the senate
must ecessarily be against the west.

Mr.. McCumber declared that the time
would come when the east would find
it's protection in the west. He referred
to the influence of foreign immigration
in eastern communities, and in this con
nection said that at it's last election
Chicago had elected socialist as mayor

ball team testified today before the leg
islative committee investigating the
university, that 500 was spent for cham

lack Of harmony among members Of the
faculty working to disadvantage of stu
dents and colleges; clique existing
among a minority Of the faculty for
retention of power; loose business meth
DDS; domineering and sarcastic attitude
of certain professors toward students;
conditions such as to demand immediate

of students as to lack of instruction in
farm mechanics and machinery; too
much time devoted to fads to the det
i rinlent of the college; determination on
the part of the dean to develop the
short course at the expense of other de
partments.

dent, tho favoring revision if neces
sary, believes that it is inadvisable a.
