HE HAS A STRONG PULL.

The press dispatches state that Pres
ident William H. F. Faunce of Brown
is held by many in university circles
to be the favorite for the position at
Chicago made vacant by the death of
President Harper. These dispatches
go on to state just why President
Faunce is such an available man. Is
it learning? or wisdom? Not quite. The
dispatch reads thus
Next to DR.. Harper, President
Faunce has secured more money
from Mr.. Rockefeller than any
other educator. He has a wide rep
utation as an organizer.
Any man who can get money from
john certainly shows wonderful execu-
tive ability. But should this art make
him great college president?

A FRIENDLY HINT IN TIME.

A clause in the new liquor license
ordinance provides that no female"
shall be allowed in a saloon. A viola
ton of tbs ordinance night be con-
sidered ground for revoking a license
just as much as the violation of the
anti-gambling law, the laws against
selling liquor to minors and probated
drunkards, or the Sunday closing law.
Yet it is notorious fact that women
and girls visit the closed boxes of
many saloons in this city every night
These closed boxes are also maintained
in violation of city ordinance passed
several years ago. 1t is the duty of
the chief of police, who is the saloon
and license inspector under the law,
to warn saloon keepers of the risk
they are running in admitting women
and girlsc to their places of business
through back doors or family en-
frances" This hint from The Even
ing Statesman should be taken as a
friendly warning of what may happen
to some saloon proprietors if they con-
tinue to sci liquor to females

SIDE ISSUES IN COLLEGE.

Professor John J. Stevenson Of the
New York university has recently writ
ten for the Popular Science monthly
an exceedingly biting comment upon
the spirit of athletics in colleges in
which he makes the suggestion that
there should be a encouragement of
the classes dividing those who want
to get through" with the attendant
joys of glee clubs, football and banjo
clubs from those who desire merely to
learn He considers it unfair that the
mere students should be required to
hang about the college halls waiting
for the athletes to catch up, instead of
going anead with their course and get
ting out in the world and their profess
sion sooner If this division were
made he assumes that parents would
send their children to one or the other
classifications and thus simplify the
faculty's task.
Professor Stevenson, unless he is
merely writing a satire for mis- own
amusement, has fallen among those
the athletic crowd that they are the
whole college and that the whole stu
dent body is taking a hand in athletics
to the detriment of their class stand
ing 1t is the old story of the man who
was sent out to get some frogs. He
said it would be easy. He knew a
place where he could get a million.
and was rallied on the discrepancy be-
tween promise and performance, he
could only say that he was deceived
by the croaking of this frog.
The frog made so much noise that
there seemed to be a million Of them. 1t
is very much so with the athletic crowd
in the college. There is such a row
made over the preparations for a foot
ball game, and so much advertising
DONE and so much disturbance of nor
NAL conditions in the newspaper office,
that one would believe that the whole
community was stirred as it would be
b va close election or the report of
the sinking of a number of Spanish
ships by Dewey. But it is not so.
There are men even in Walla Walla
who never saw a football game, and
VINO would not know one if they saw
it in a shop window. There are many
students who never tried for the team,
and who have not the least yearning
to wear a letter"

THE WAR ON ROOSEVELT.

1t is a great game that is being
days.
Our Washington correspondent de-
scribes the moves from day to day.
The object on one side is to break
down the presidents prestige, destroy
the confidence of the people in him. and
defeat the measures and policies for
which he stands. On the other side is
the president with his trusted friends,
making a fight for clean politics and a
square deal.
The opposition to the president may
succeed in a measure and for a time,
but just as sure as the president
stands by his ideals, he will win in the
long run. He is not the first president
who has had to combat the spoils prin-
ciple in politics and contend with sell
fish ambitions on the part of public
men. But no president has ever had
to contend before with such powerful
forces and interests outside of polit-
1cal circles. The antagonism which is
being aroused against the president is
not merely the contention on the part
of the politicians for what they assume
to be their rights and privileges in the
matter of patronage. 1t is not merely
an issue as to the admission or the ex-
clusion of three or four territories from
the ranks of statehood, nor simply a
matter of duties on sugar or tobacco
from the Philippine islands. These
issues are pushed to the front as bar
ricades behind which a still fiercer and
a more bitter opposition pours it's fire
upon the administration. This opposi-
ton is that of the special interests
which control the senate and which
seek to paralyze' such efforts of the
president to curtail their power and in
fuence as he is making through his
measures for rate regulation, trust
prosecution and insurance supervision,
Honest differences of opinion with re-
gard to statehood and the Philippine
tariff, and claims of right to distribute
political favors and other matters of
comparatively minor Importance are
being made use of in an effort to
arouse antagonism between congress
and the president in the hope and ex-
pectation that the presidents policies
with respect to other and larger ques-
tions of vital import may be defeated
1t is great game, but, happily, the
cards cannot be concealed The public
through the press, is witness. And
this fact and the confidence of the
president in the people and in their ad-
herence to principles of justice and
right fortify him against the assaults
