PREPARING LETTER
NEW CHANCELLOR WILL ISSUE
A PUBLIC ADDRESS.
Want to Secure for the University of
Mississippi Its Proper Position In
the Educational Work Of the Com
monweaIth.
Daily News Special.

Daily News Special.
jackson, June 27.-Prof. A. A. Kin.
cannon will assume charge of the
CHARACTERISTIC of the University OF
Mississippi on July IL, and immediate
" after taking charge he will issue
an address to the educational interests
of the State outlining his policy OF
government.
Plans are now being carefully form
ulated whereby the new chancellor
hopes to secure for the University its
proper standing and influence in the
educational life of the State, and
which, above all other things, will
bring it into closer contact with the
public schools and secure larger
annual enrolment.
To this end Chancellor Kincannon
will ont only urge the active support
and assistance of school teachers, but
also that of former students of the
University. The board of trustees has
clothed him with larger power than
chancellors of the University have
heretofore possessed and with his well
known reputation for executive ability,
the new head of the University ought
to be able to secure an enrolment of
between 500 and 600 students for the
next sessions.
The friends of the new chancellor
will read with much interest the fol-
lowing resolution which has been for
warted to him by subcommittee of
the I. /. & G. trustees appointed at
the recent Jackson meeting to prepare
an expression on the subject.
Resolved, That as trustees of the
Industrial Institute and College we
keenly feel the loss which this insti-
tuition has incurred in the resignation
of it's president, Hon. A. A. Kincan-
non.
Resolved, That as trustees and citi-
zens we greatly appreciate the splen-
did services that he has rendered the
State and the college, a service which
has now been crystalized into the his
tory of our State. He was called to
its head at critical period in the
life of the college and his rare ex-
ecutive ability, his unselfish devotion
to it's cause, his splendid scholarly
attachments have made the college a
glory to our State and pride to all
our people.
Resolved, That we tender him the
assurance of our continued friendship
and our cordial desire to aid him in
the field of his new labors, and the
heartfelt hope that he will make our
University the grand school that he
has left us in Columbus.
Resolved, That copy of these
