ege of dentistry of the State uhlVer-
sty of Iowa, has just returned to the
city from location seeking trip thru
Kansas and the southwest that was
filed with exciting adventure from the
time he struck Winfield. Kas. The
trouble all started over case of mis-
taken identities, aided by the fact that
Roosevelt's travelling companion was
DR.. c. L. Thomas, of Washington, la.
Entering the hotel at Winfield, Thomas
registered for both and wrote WASH

ter they had been shown to their
sentatives of the press of that city, who
expressed great delight lin welcoming
the famous son of the president OF the
United States to the finest state In the
union" Both Roosevelt and Thomas
promptly denied that Roosevelt was
the son of the president and that the

Grinnell. Jan. 3O.-An effort is being
made at the college here to have all OF
the students in the institution pay
flat rate by the semester emitting them
to admission to all of the athletic and
literary events. The plan is more far
reaching In its scope than that ever
proposed at any other Iowa college.
and while there is some opposition to
it's adoption. it is believed that it will
eventually meet the approval Of the
faculty and the student body alike and
finally be adopted and go into effect
next fall AS proposed, the plan con-
templates adding Sc onto the regular
yearly tuition fee to- be paid in two
equal installments. This entities the
student to admission to every event in
the college year from foot ball games
to debates
The plan has been tried with marked
success at Morningside college In Sioux
CITY, where it resulted in putting all
of the student activities on sound
basis, greatly increasing the attend
ance and the interest. 1t has been
proposed at several other institutions
in the state, including the State Uni
versity Of Iowa 1t was turned down
there on account of the fact that the
regents of the institution were opposed
to making the payment compulsory, so
as to increase the tuition. 1t is argued
here that there are many students who
cannot afford TO make the extra pay
ment. and that in compelling them to
do so the college is acting unfairly In
asmuch as the adoption Of the regula-
ton would require all of the co-eds in
the institution to pay their way to all
of the games and literary events, 1t Is
meeting with the approval Of large
number of male students, who would
thereby be relieved from further ex-
penditures in that direction.
The Iowa college base ball managers
will meet in Iowa City on February g.,
to arrange for the playing dates of the
Iowa college teams this spring. Our

new STATE OF LINCOLN.
Propose to Whittle Off the
Sharp Corner of Idaho.

The holding of a convention in
Spokane in March to discuss the plan
of the new state of Lincoln as de-
finitely proposed by F. II. Mason
and C. H. Moore, very prominent
business men, who ask that the
Spokane Chamber of Commerce
issue call to all commercial bodies.
The plan contemplates extending the
south boundary Of Washington
through Idaho, thus constituting the
south boundary of the new state.
Montana would be the east boundary,
British Columbia thenorth boundary,
and the west, instead of being the
Cascade mountains should be an ex-
tension of the east boundary of Cali
fornia, the 120th parallel of latitude.
This would leave Wenatchee and
North Yakima and Ellensburg in the
state of Washington, of which OIym-
pia is the capital.
Possible opposition from Idaho to
the proposed plan will be met by ex-
tending the present Idaho boundary
west to meet the same parallel that
now constitutes the east boundary
of California; thus all that portion
of the present state of Oregon bound
ed on the south by Nevada would be
added to Idaho. Idaho would gain
more territory than she loses and be
more symmetrical. No opposition
is anticipated from south Idaho on
the proposed basis as it would gain
such cities as Baker, La Grande and
Pendleton.
Oregon and Washington would be
the only states to suffer serious loss
of territory and opposition from the |
west part of each of these states
would have to be overcome by the !
promoters of the state of Lincoln.
