Opinion at Harvard
Cambridge. Mass, Oct 30.-That moth
ing more serious than gossip will re-
suit from the comment in the American
colony in Berlin over the fact that Har-
ward University has sent as this year
exchange professor" a Britisher instead
OF an American is the opinion in local
college circles.
That the exchange is purely academic
and not diplomatic. IS the contention at
Harvard. Prot MueHsteHberg, who is
the closest representative Of Emperor
William in this section, and Jerome d.
Green, President Eliot's secretary. talked
about the dispute to-day. Prot. Muen-
stenberg said that no mistake had been
made In the selection Of Prof. Schofeld.
Germany Sent Is a Russian.
He said il made no difference TO the
German government whether the "ex-
change professor was an American. He
pointed out that in the exchange Of pro-
fess0rs, no account was taken by the two
nations OF the nationality OF the profes-
sors. As an example, he cited thaI the
first professor sent 10 this country under
the exchange professor" plan was Prof.
Osler the noted philosopher and scien-
tist, who was not German born, but who
was Russian.
Jerome d. Greene, President Eliot's sec
retary, said to-day that the question OF
Prot. Schohelds nationality was brought
UP some time ago. but that 1t was con-
sidered favorable rather than otherwise,
because il aCCentuated the fact that his
mission 10 Germany was academic rather
than diplomatic

LEASE OF GRAZING LANDS.
Middle West StOckmen Look for
Government Action.

Government Action.
In travelling over the Middle Western
States-Michigan. Ohio. Indiana, Illinois,
Kentucky. and others Of this group-one
finds an almost universal belief that the
national government must, and will, Sc
cure the enactment of law providing
for the leasing of all the remaining pub
lie lands of the West that are used for
range purposes. says the National Live
Stock Bulletin. Several reasons are ad-
vanced as argument by the live stock
raisers Of the States mentioned; in favor
Of a lease law, rigidly enforced; among
these reasons being: THAT the govern
ment should derive a revenue for the use
Of idle public lands. 2-that a lease law,
properly prepared and enforced, viii tend
20 develop the country more rapidly than
will be possible without such a law; 3
that such a law will effectuaUy end the
wars" between cattle and sheep men,
by giving each a certain defined tract
to be properly fenced: and 4-that there
is no justice in the government giving or
allowing privileges TO a man or a set Of
men In one part Of the country that It
does not or cannot permit in other local
tiles, the basic idea underlying this final
argument being that, as the government
cannot give stock men OF the Middle West
free use Of public lands for pasture, it
should not allow stock men farther west
the free use of tracts of public lands
because under such conditions stock
raisers, east of the Mississippi River,
using high-priced land. paying taxes
maintaining barns, fences. &c, are forced
to compete with Western growers OF
cattle. sheep. &C, who are at no such
expense.
Inasmuch as Congress at its next ses-
sion will carefully consider this question,
and may pass some laws regarding il, the
American National Live Stock Associa-
ton announces that it viii again docket
the subject for discussion at its next an
nual meeting at Denver, in January, 1908.
