BLAUVELT
IS COMING

Only one grand opera prima donna
is booked for Pullman this year, and
this is the superb Blauvelt. who ap-
pears here on March 4th. Her London
popularity has become so great that
her manager has contracted with the
Convent Grand Opera Company for her
entire public work during the next
three years: so this will be our last
opportunity for some time to hear
Americas Queen of Song, as she is
affectionately spoken of by thousands
of devotees on both sides of the At
lantic.
Blauvelt. Media, and Sembrich are
the leading opponents in the world to-
day of the "bel canto" of the Ital-
ians. So plant, flexible and respons-
i've is Blauvelt's voice that the most
difficult passages known to the musical
art are performed with an ease and ia
cility that seem absolutely unlabored,
and can be compared only to the free
dom of bird in flight. The most
daring and captivating cadenzas are
given with the same grace and sweet
ness of tone as the simple. old fash
toned ditty, Comm Thro the Rye. /"
However, it is said that Blauvelt is
loved by the concert goer for her won
derful personality even more than
for perfect vocal art. When the grand
opera stage, the comic opera, the
stage for concert, and the burlesoue
field are all calling to one artistic, and
asking her to join their forces, that
artistic must surely be convincing
one. This situation of affairs applies
to Madame Lillian Blauvelt. No one
can withstand the peculiar winsome-
ness of her presence, the sparkling
naivette, delightful spontaniety, and
freshness of power. There is a
frankness and womanliness about her
that never fails to please. Her choice
sprightlness of humor is the best an
tidote to the "blues" that can be
found. Watch for the date.

INDOOR TRACK MEET.

On March 9Th the gymnasium will
be given over to the track men for the
annual indoor meet. The indoor meet
last year was one of the most exciting
events of the year. The class relay
teams were of course the strongest fea-
lures of the meet. If you are not in
training for this event you are going
to miss your best chance for real
sport. All classes should organize
teams and see that they train faith
fully. This is the first step to the
varsity team and if you have any abil-
ity get out and show it. Manager
Lewis and Captain Hahn will have one
of the finest track schedules ever made
for the team this year. 1t will be an
honor to make the team.

The Beard saloon now has but a
single week more to continue in bust
ness, when it will be forced to close
its doors because of the expiration of
a license that the Law Enforcement
council will not renew. This will
leave but one saloon in Pullman, and
the Herald believes that that one
should be put out of business without
further delay. The White Brick sa-
loon has always been the worst offender
with which the forces for law and or
der have had to contend. Backed by
a wealthy corporation. it was in po-
sition to WELD an influence that was
thrown time and again against the
moral advance of the city, and that
was responsible for much continued
strife and agitation. We believe that
the place forfeited its right to do bus
mess when its proprietor pleaded guilty
in the police court to selling liquor to
a minor, and the present council would
be doing no more than a plain duty to
the public if it forthwith revoked the
license and made Pullman the clean
town that the voters have demanded.
And this revelation should come at
once. regardless of what the past his
tory of the saloon has been. The COM
mercial welfare of the town demands
that the policy of anti-saloon be put
into operation at the earliest possible
moment, it being manifestly unfair to
the Law Enforcement majority on the
council to ask it to work under the sa-
loon policy. The return of the un-
earned license money will be a small
matter as compared with meeting the
wishes of big majority of the voters,
for since the expression of the ballot
box on December 3rd, there is no
doubling how Pullman feels on the sa-
loon question.

FARMERS AT
THE COLLEGE

This is the first course of its kind
given at the State College and so far
has been complete success. The ag-
rlcutlural extension work given in
THIS way brings the college and its
scientific work more closely to the
farmers eye. The lessons both in the
lecture room and laboratory are given
In all points vital to the farmer,
dalryman, the stockman and the horti-
culturist. Here the individual can
take up any of these phases of agri-
culture he wishes and get an insight
into its broad field. which will enable
him not only to farm with far greater
intelligence and with greater profit,
but to better understand the manifold
variety of the laws of nature, their
beauty and their magnificent certainty.
The men in this course. whose ages
range from eighteen to sixty years, are
all deeply interested in their work, and
they strongly express their opinion
that too much cannot be said of the
benefits of the Farmers Winter School.
Most of them have been farming in a
hit and miss method, and they are
now anxious to tell others of the great
benefits derived from their short stay
at the State College. In this way
they not only bring the college more
in direct contact with the farmers of
the state by inducing others to take
the short courses, but they also tend to
draw more farmers boys and girls to-
ward the college. AS was expressed
by one of the students of the course,
"the college and its benefits are
brought more closely to the tax paying
population of the state.
Everything possible has been done
toward making this short course a sue
cess. With the able direction of Prof.
Elliott and the work of the other in
structors of the department, Prof.
Johnston of the English, Mr.. Bean of
the Business, and Prof. Martin of the
Department of Mechanical Engineer
ing, have done much to make the
course successful. Special lecturers
are being provided thruout the whole
course. Lectures from practical men
of experience like Joseph Wing, the
well-known writer for the Breeders
Gazette, Mr.. A.A. Kelly, market gar
dener of Spokane, Mr.. Dave Macy, a
bee keeper of Walla Walla, Mr.. H.F.
Rau, poultryman of Spokane, and
others, add very greatly to the interest
taken in the work.
The members of the short course
have also taken advantage of their
hort stay at college by organizing
club. and the regularity of attendance
here. as we'll as in the regular work
of the course, is certainly an example
to many of our college clubs of SINH
lar nature. This club has done much
toward organizing the course and max
ing it a greater success.
This is only the beginning of very
important work Of the college, and it
will be only a matter of a few years
till the short course will be as popular
as it is in many of the eastern col
leges. 1t is certainly most effective
way of making our college and its
work known in every part of the state.
1t remains for every college student,
and all others who realize the import
ance of the Winter School to aid its
progress in every way possible.

CONFERENCE AND ADJOURN-
 MENT.

Washington, May 23.-Tne senate began business today with the idea that no bills should be passed W hich would complicate the situatIon in the house and result in a further delay of the final adjournment
 Before the senate convened and Gf- ter the conference with the other principal leaders in the senate. MT. Aldrich visited the house and informed the leaders that the sena-c was ready to adjourn as soon as disposition should be made of the cOnfer5n nee re ports on the supply bills. He sug- gested that if the house was not ready the senate could adjourn after the morning business until Monday.
 Speaker Cannon was of the opinion that action could be had today on the sundry civil appropriation bill, as well as one or two other appropriation measures, and that if the senate and house were both in session today a number of big measures could be got ten out of the way.
 There was a large number of con- ference reports before the house but it is now well understood that most of them, other than reports on the sup ply bills. will be allowed to go over to the next session. There is a pros pect of getting through on Monday evening though the minority filibuster in the house continues to the end.

contest between the friends of MT. Woolf and those of MT. Bell. The lat ter secured by a narrow margin. All this was settled in a fairly amicable manner
 The following delegates to the terri torial convention were ultimately se- lected: NJ. J. Pettid, w. w. Cunning ham, T. Olea. H. A. Hughes. V. & Clark s. J. Nicholson, Neri Osborn, G. B. Bullard, J. T. Dunlap, Frank De SOuza, W. D. Bell, L. M. Hoghe, W. T. Smith, Joe Bush. N. Sevadra, J. T. Murphy. A. Hunsaker. Clarence Standage, H. s. Chandler, J. s. War ing, M. C. Phelps, George Mcdonald, w.

Coffelt.
 The proceedings were not distin- guished by an outbreak though at one time the convention was perilously near it. That was when the report of the committee on platform was receiv- ed. C. B. Wood the bosom friend of Eugene Brady O'Neill was chairman of the committee. It had originally been the intention of the friends of Mir. O'Neill openly to endorse him for delegate to congress but that time had passed. They were content to secure a plank commenting him as the champion trust buster in the last leg islature, commenting his continuous and present efforts against the corpo- rations and praying that some time in the near distant future they might be crowned with success.
 There was no disposition on the part of the convention to withhold from MT O'Neill such an endorsement but the convention was reminded by Paul Kruger and others that there was an other democrat of whom no mention had been made, one Marcus Aurelius Smith. While bouquets were being distributed in such a prodigal manner why not hand him a posy?
 Chairman Wood explained that the failure to eXtol the virtues of Mir Smith was an error of the heart of the committee and not of its head. MT. Smith had simply been forgotten. It would be with pleasure that the com mittee would endorse the performance of MT. Smith.
 The friends of Mir. Smith were in clined to suspicion; they would take no chances but insisted that the mat ter be referred to the committee for insertion into the platform. That was done and then the platform was so broad an dstrOng that they could all stand on it without undue crowding.
 The first four paragraphs of the platform are devoted to a eulogy of Bryan. The next one contains an expression of regret that the republi- can party has nobody like him. The next holds up Oklahoma as a model
