The right of college students to
vote in college towns is to be tested
in a suit brought by the retail liquor
dealers in Mitchell. Without express
sing any opinions on the merits of
the Mitchell case the Huronite is glad
to see this question taken to the courts
for settlement. In every college town
in this state this college vote is the
source of endless controversy. Stud
ents claim a right to vote in the cleo
tons held in college towns and very
often their votes determine the re.
suit of local issues, and their right
to vote ought TO be clearly determin.
