UNIVERSITY APPROPRIATION.

Since the last session OF the North
Dakota legislature the enrolment of
the State University. which is the
recognized leading educational institu-
ton of the state, has increased over
100 per cent and with this increase
there has come, naturally, great de-
mand for increased space, new build
ings, added equipment, larger and
better paid faculty and so on. The
appropriation made by the legislature
in 1905 fell considerable short of the
amount needed, not only that neces-
sary for improvements, but also that
for contingent expenses.
The Evening Times hopes that the
present legislature, even if it becomes
necessary to curtail the appropria-
tions for some of the other institu-
lions, which are every whit as able to
undergo the hardships incident to at
tanning settled growth, as was the
State University during the twenty
years leading up to its present condi-
ton of promise, will see to it that the
states foremost seat of learning is
given first consideration, and that the
appropriation made shall be as large
as it is possible to make the same.

THE KINGSTON AFFAIR ENDED.

There is no doubt that Sir Alexan-
der Swettenham had the fright" to
order Admiral Davis sailors to with
draw from Kingston. When a mans
house is on fire, and his neighbors
rush into the house to help him save
it, he has the fright" to order them out
of it. The island of Jamaica is owned
by Great Britain, and for all the pur-
poses of the island Sir Alexander
Swettenham, so long as he holds the
post of governor, is Great Britain. He
may do what he pleases with his own.
His fright" to do as he pleases as the
governor of the island runs even
against his own word. Suppose that
he had met Admiral Davis on the ar
rival of our squadron, and had asked
him to land American relief parties
in Kingston for the definite period of
two weeks, and then had changed his
own mind within five minutes after
our sailors and physicians had got on

shore. In that case his right" to
order the men back to their ships
forthwith would be as unquestionable
as his right to say that they might
remain on shore for a fixed time.
There can be neither question nor
doubt as to Sir Alexander Swetten-
HAMS right: for the time being he
held over Kingston all the right that
Great Britain has in kingston; Adj
miral Davis acknowledged that right
by getting his men on board ship and
hosting anchor: so that the sole mat
ter of question or wonder in the case
of the governor Of Jamaica is as to
how he used his fright"
The government of Great Britain
from which Governor Swettenham de-
rives all his powers in Jamaica, has
already made known to our govern
ment in repeated communications that
it disapproved of the governors use
of his right in the case of Admiral
Davis. This is sufficient condemna-
ton of Sir Alexander Swettenham's
behavior toward Admiral Davis for
all our purposes. No government can
go further by the way Of apology,
when it is misrepresented by an agent,
than to disapprove and regret the par
ticular act done. Furthermore, Gov
ernor Swettenham himself agrees with
his government in disappearing and re-
GREETING his own act. This is the only
meaning and significance of his Off

Is the President misinformed regard
ing the ship-subsidy question? There
can be no doubt but that a subsidy
would make greater profit to the
lines, but would it add single ship
or cut off an hour in the transmission

American-built ships to carry Amer,-
can products, and later this matter
of carrying the mails came up. Is
cannon ordinary greed at the bottom

that passengers who are compelled
