COLLEGE ROWDIES.
opportunity

With the opening of the college year the usual
reports of hazings and rushes and general ruff
fanism, organized or unorganiZed, begin TO ap-
pear In the newspapers. On Thursday a sopho-
more at Columbia was seriously injured in a
senseless collision between the two lower classes
at that institution South Field That same
night the same Columbia classes created riotous
scenes at Fort Lee. This fall we have heard Of
systematic campaigns of disorder prevailing at
few unprOgressive colleges where night after
night freshmen In their beds were routed out to
play pranks for the amusement of sophOmOres.
Such performances in a ruder day were part
of the traditions Of student life They have
been long abolished in the better American col
leges and students who indulge in them and
institutions which tolerate them, instead of Civ
ing evidence Of manly college spirit, merely re-
cord themselves still afflicted with childish
ness Real up-to-date college men do not do
such things; only overgrown and underbred
boys. The wise college presidents both in large
and small institutions, have effectualy stopped
these practices without sacrifice of the manl-
ness Of their students any interference with
the reasonable overflow of animal spirits
They have simply created a standard of gen.
tlemanliness and civilization which does not
permit selfrespecting young men to initiate the
manners of rOwdies.

Here supervision by government officials
is exercised over every detail of the bus-
ness of the "Saladero" packer or exporter.
There is reason to believe that in the case
of the large factories this supervision has
been effective. for the reason. Of course,
that the proprietors, who pay the inspec-
tors, have had the wisdom to insist upon
its efficiency.
A manager of a large establishment here
said to me: President Roosevelt's insist
ence upon government supervision is anus

had enough of official supervision by this
time. The remedy is so easy, so obvious.
The Chicago packers say that they don't
object to supervision. but they object to
paying for it. Give them gratuitous super
