The returns from the late state cleo
ton on the three constitutional amend
ments submitted to the people are
coming in SLOW but sure" The Tai
lahassee correspondent of the SSavan-
nah News, who has inside knowledge
on this subject, says that up until
noon of last Saturday complete returns
were in from only ten counties and
the amendments had been defeated in
all of them by ratio of eight to one.
AS the correspondent observes, 1T
seems impossible To carry a constitr-
tional amendment in Florida and if
we are to. make needed changes in
our organic law I'VE must find some
other way to make them. II these
amendments are in fact lost it will
nightly stimulate the movement for
a constitutional convention. A sum-
mary decision to vote against a pro-
posed amendment because somebody
said it involved more taxation, and
without giving any examination or real
thought to the merits of the PROPOSE
ton is not the way to make a wise
organic law.

IS NOTED EDUCATOR
PRESIDENT ELIOT HEAD OF HAIR.
WARD FOR 40 YEARS.
Dean Of University Chiefs Tenders
Resignation to Take Effect Next
Spring-ls Father Of Elective
System in Schools.

Boston.-President Charles W. Eliot
for years head of Harvard university
has rendered his resignation. Presi
dent Eliot will be rs years old next
March, and desires to be free from
the cares of Office the remainder of
his life.
Although because of his age the res
ignation of President Eliot has been
looked forward to as a probability fer
the last two or three years, the news
that he will retire in the near future
will doubtless cause surprise to thou
sands of Harvard graduates through
out the country. He is the dean of
American university presidents, and
the general public, like Harvard men,
has grown to look upon him as an
educational institution not to be
changed suddenly. No university head,
indeed, probably is better known, to
the public than President Eliot, and
his long administration of university
affairs, in it's essential respects,
seems in keeping with Harvard's spir-
it and history.
President Eliot is in his seventy
fifth year, having been born in Bos-
for college at the Boston Latin school
and in 1853 was graduated from Har-
ward. From 1854 to 1858 he was tu-
tor in mathematics and student in
chemistry at the university; in 1858
he became assistant professor of
mathematics and chemistry in the uni
versity's Lawrence Scientific school
and remained in that capacity five
years. Then he went to Europe and
studied chemistry and Investigated
educational methods for two years.
Returning to the United States in
1865, he became professor Of analytic
al chemistry in the Massachusetts In
stitute of Technology, where he re-
NAMED four years. Again he went
abroad, to France, where he studied
year and in 1869 he returned to
take up the presidency of Harvard.
At the time he became the head of
this old and wealthy seat of learning
and culture President Eliot was IS

Charles w. Eliot.

years old and had achieved a repu-
tation as an authority on chemistry.
These two facts hardly qualified him
for the administration OF a great in
stitution of learning, according to New
England traditions. Since their es-
tablishment the principal colleges of
the east had been governed by clergy
men past middle life. It was some
thing Of a shock to New England to
have young man and scientist be-
come the head of Harvard. The idea
of young men and non-clergymen as
presidents has since become popular,
and this Is largely due to the sue
cess of President Eliot's administra-
ton.
The name of President Eliot will
forever be associated with the de-
velopment of the elective system in
American universities. He, possibly
more than anybody else, brought
about this system, which was for a
long time looked upon with suspicion
and distrust and has not yet found
universal acceptance, though to a de-
gree its principles have been accepted
by nearly every one of our larger in
situations of learning. The system
differs fundamentally from the old
rigid curriculum of prescribed studies
in allowing a student to choose the
greater part of the studies he must
take to earn a degree. According to
President Eliot's views on the system
it promotes concentration and indt
viduality, equipping each student to
make the largest contribution to the
betterment of the race and combining
practical with theoretical culture.
1t has been said of President Eliot
that he is ''first, last and only a uni
versity administrator" instead of being
first a great teacher or author or
scholar and secondly a great admins
traitor. He has the faculty, highly de-
veloped, of co-ordinating the work of
many men toward harmonious and
effective end, and he has vigorous
and impressive personality that has
enabled him to carry out his ideas
without exciting opposition. His kind
illness of spirit and desire to put stu
dents on their honor as much as pos
sible have made him popular with
undergraduates to an extraordinary
degree.
One of his great achievements as
an administrator has been the steady
lettering of the Harvard professional
school, The Lawrence Scientific
school, the medical school and the
dental school have been greatly i'm
proved and, the law schools high
standard has been raised.

Republicans and democrats alike
cannot help being disguised with the
lying their hide-bound party organs
have done during the past campaign.
A paper whose proprietor either holds
q federal job or is looking for one,
cannot be depended upon to tell the
unbiased truth about politics and even
sometimes about other things. Why
should your report about daily affairs
be colored to suit the selfish interests
or desires of the man who happens
to have his money invested in news
paper machinery? You have right to
have pure news as we'll as pure food.
And also, why not pure advertising?
The paper goes into the home and is
read by your children. You are try
ing to keep their minds clean and
would raise a row If you found an I'M
moral or impure book In the house.
Why not guard what they read in daily
papers as carefully? The Lincoln
State Journal columns are the best evi.
dence of its cleanness. A whole lot Of
advertising is found in other dailies
that is kept out of the Lincoln
Journal. When you take The Journal
you pay only for your own paper as
1t has no deadbeats; no bad bills.
Everybody pays In advance and every
paper Is stopped when the time is out.

waste being eliminated and you get

MANY ARGUMENTS OVER
THE RULE ON HURDLING
knotty Point in Football Not Clear to
Spectators-Definitio Accord
ing to COMMITTEES.

One feature of the football rules
which is discussed great deal and over
which there has been many an argu,
ment between football captains and
the officials, is the one in regard to
what does and what does not consti-
tute hurdling. This question is one
about which the spectators also dis
agree. and many different opinions in
regard to it may be heard at almost
every game where there is any
semblance of jump by a player run
ming with the ball.
There are very few games, especial
ly among smaller college teams, that
the referee is not many times asked
the question, How is that for hurd-
Eng?" if a player jumps over an OPP
ponent who is PROSTATE on the ground,
no matter what method he may take
in doing so.
The rules committee has threshed
this question out pretty thoroughly,
and has instructed the prominent of.
ficials as to just the proper ruling in
such cases, but there are many play
sers who have not yet learned how the
rules about hurdling should be inter-
preted. 1t is also hard to convince
the average spectator that one player
can jump over another in any manner
and still not be guilty of hurdling
This is not particularly strange, as
there is very little difference in the
meaning of the words hurdling and
jumping, when taken in their general
sense
The definition of hurdling and the
different ways it may be done is CIV
en- in rule 8, section Is, which is as
follows:
"Hurdling as used in the rules ap-
plies only to the man carrying the
ball.
"Hurdling in the open is jumping
over, or attempting to jump over, an
opponent who is still on his feet.
''Hurdling in the line is jumping
over, or attempting to jump over, a
player on the line of scrimmage with
the feet or knees foremost, within the
distance of five yards on either side
of the point where the ball Is put in
play"
The penalty for hurdling is the loss
of Is yards from the spot where the
foul occurred, the point to be gained
and the number of the down to remain
unchanged.
