dependent nominations might have the
effect of compelling all nominations for
office to be of a partisan character. The
Wisconsin law provides for nominations
independent of any political party and
does not apply to the nomination of
town and village officers. Candidates
for office may have their names placed
on the official ballot by petition. The
title of the act led many cities to make

impression that under the primary law
all nominations must be of a partisan
character.

some candidate had a majority of the

the wish of the majority.
II am quite confident that this

DR.. HARPER.

President Harper is dead, Chicago
University has lost the head that made
It a great educational institution, and
the world is poorer by profound
scholar 1t is impossible to over esti-
mate Dr. Harper's work for his univer-
eity. His object was to erect great
school in the middle west. He did it.
Most of the faults to be found with
Chicago University are the result of
rapid growth When it has lived as
long as Yale and Harvard have lived
these faults will have been amended
and the school rank with the highest.
The real or imagined faint of Mr..
Rockefeller's money will have been
blown away in the winds of the CEN
& turtles. The real founder Of Chicago
University was Harper and the future
will give the credit to the man who
conceived and executed. 1t is Harper's
best monument.
But nothing Harper has done is
greater than his fashion of dying, as a
Twentieth century hero should die. He
refused to sit down and wait for his
death sentence to be slowly carried
out. There was no repining. He
worked up to the limit of his strength
while life lasted unafraid of the end,
but regretful that his failing forces
limited his capacity to do. Perhaps he
shortened his term, but he accomplish
ed all that was possible bef2re the
night came down wherein no man NAV
work. President Harper was a great
man in more than one way. He was
greatest in his simple acceptance of the
common fate and his haste to do while
the power to Go was granted him.
1t was the sane, philosophical way.
It is all in the days work. Death is
as certain as shutdown. The purposeful
man always finds his day too snort. Let
us all learn of Harper 10 M AXE the
most of it, and, like him, accept the
