SOCIAL LIFE IN COLLEGE.
Minneapolis Journal

NIIHHedpOTIS JUWIIlItI'
There Is, and has been for some time,
q suspicion that social observances
were becoming too strenuous In the
colleges of America. The expense OF
attending college has increased and Is
increasing. and while a portion OF this
is attributable to the rise In the cost
OF living, the fact remains that So
cial life is accountable for a great deal
more of It, The law and public opinion
will doubtless sustain the faculty of
any college in making such Just re-
stricions upon the social life of the stu
dent as will emphasize the main object
of attendance upon college, that Is, the
mastering of the course of study This
is In the interest of the student him
self, and II Is course for which ne
will deeply thank the faculty-later on.

Indiana Has Been Considered Most
Doubtful State in Union All Dur
ing Campaign - Unusually Heavy
Vote Being Cast-GoyernOrship
Fight Is Close as Presidential Con-
test-Liqu0r Question Adds I'm
certainty 10 the Situation.

indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 3.-Al
Hoos,erdom is in ferment of ex-
citement today and the greatest polit-
zeal battle in recent years is on in
earnest.
Chairman Jackson Of the demo-
cratic state committee declares that
victory is already assured and that
Bryan and Marshall have carried the
state by safe majority. Similar op-
timistic expressions were made at Re-
publican headquarters. Both sides
admit that the vote will be close.
All during the campaign, Indiana
has been the most doubtful state of
the union, and this uncertainty is still
lowering over the issue of today's
election. An unusually heavy vote
was cast all over the state this morn
ing.
The governorship fight is quite as
close as the contest between Taft and
Bryan. The liquor question has add
ed to the uncertainty of the situation.
II Is 5heFally admitted that the
republican party has regained some
of its lost ground during the last
week of the campaign, but it may
not be sufficient to overcome the
democratic wave that swept over the
state early IN the struggle.

that Taft will have 10000 plurality

BOTH PARTIES
CLAIM NEW YORK
POSITIVE ASSERTIONS OF
VICTORY BEING MADE.
Politics Is Sole Subject of Discussion
i'm New York City-Chanler Evil
dently Running Ahead of Hughes
Special Police Patroling Streets
and Largest Election Night Crowd
in History Is Expected.

New York, Nov. S.-Claims and
counter-claims marked the early
stages of election day in New York
and as the day advances the asser-
tions of certain victory by both the
democratic and republican party
leaders become more confident in
tone.
Little business is being transacted
in the metropolis today and politics is
the sole topic of discussion. Many
big bets have been made, according
to rumor, with Taft and Chanler rul-
ing as favorites.
Many special police are patroling
the streets and polling places. 1t is
feared that many voters in some of
tho congested districts will be dis
f.aa-Aised, owing to inability of the
election officials to carry on the bal
letting expeditiously under the new
law.
Chanler is apparently running far
ahead of Hughes in this city, and a
big Hughes vote upstate will be nee
essary to save the governor from de-
feat.
Reports received from over the
state early this afternoon indicated
that Taft has small lead over Bry-
an, but the result is still highly doubt
full.
The independence party vote will
likely cut little figure, but the social
lists are casting a heavy vote in some
sections of the city. The socialists
claim that HillQuit, the candidate for
from the ninth district, is
far ahead and that he will certainly
be elected.
The police department is preparing
to handle an unprecedented election
night crowd.
Betting was active this morning. 1t
was intimated that before noon $780,
GOO had been wagered. The odds IA
vor Taft and s to l. Most Of the
money is on the state contest. The
odds slightly favor Hughes re-elec-
ton.
