| Hatchet hurls a bomb into the camp
/ By charges brought against the conduct
Of the recent elections.
Whether the members OF the Athletic
Association viii call Cor a new election
remains 10 De seen. but Il Is pretty Ger
tain that the Athletic Council will in
Vestigate the charges at once.
r, Percy Gates, editor-in-chief Of the

'iation, which gives the article added
interest as an official import
The Hatchet's Comment.
The editorial in part follows.
1t is unfortunate that 50 much criti-
cism should have been aroused at the
manner Ia which the recent Athletic
Association election was conducted.
We have received numerous complaints
from members Of the association to the
effect that the remarkable system Of
distributing ballots and receiving votes
ADOPTED by those ia charge made IL
practically impossible for them 10 eX-
erclse the right OF suffrage for which
they had paid.
Whatever foundation there may be
for certain wild charges Of corruption,
II would certainly seem regretsble that
the only place where ballots could be
cast should have been placed in a de-
partment OF the university. where there
are scarcely half a dozen members OF
the association 10 students with class
and dinner engagements the time con-
Eumed IN voting under this system must
have been no small item We have
heard Of some who expended half an
hour in a vain effort to find some che
from whom they might get an official
ballot That the number thus hinder
ed was large would seem 20 be shown
by the fact that scarcely half of the
membership Of the association voted
Election One-Sided.
These remarks in no way reflect
upon the gentlemen elected. The vote
was so overwhelmingly IN their favor
that even had all the other members of
the association voted against them -hs
result would probably not have been
But it does seem that something is /
wrong with the system which
permits such occurrences The mem
bsrs Of the association pay for ths
right OF suffrage They are entitled 10
exercise u without hindTance."

In the Jaws of q Lion.

A lion comes at its enemy at full speed. gallOping low, and dashes a man standing upright to the ground by the full impact of its body. Major In verarity states thnt the claws and teeth entering the flesh do not hurt as much as you would think" but that the squeeze given by the jaws on the bone is really painful When knocked over he was still keenly conscious and felt none of the dreamy sensations ex. perienced by Livingstone.
 Major Swaine. struck down by a lioness going full gallop was uncon- scious for some minutes and did not know what had happened till he found himself standing up after the accident. T felt no pain" he writes, not. l be- lieve. owing to any special interposi- tion of Providence. but simply that the shock and loss of blood made me in- capable of feeling it. There was no pain for few days till 1t was brought on by the swelling of my arm on the twelve days ride to the coast."-Lon. don Spectator.

A KENTUCKY SAMPLE

Lebanon, Ky, Aprl 25- No lie ense went into effect in this city in May last, and the city and it's citizens have received almost in numerable benefits as result of the policy. Business is better; even the hard times of the last two months have not beer Suffi- cient to check the growth of prosperity. People are sober; druckenness is rare; money that used to flow into the nine saloons of the city now goes to the gro. cries, the dry goods stores and the meat markets. The reduction of crime and disorder is perhaps the most marked result of no-li- cense. During the whole month of February it cost just fifteen cents to feed the police court prisoners of the whole city. 1t used to cost from $50 to $50 per month.
 All this, of course, is a common experience with no license towns, but in the Lebanon the matter is of importance, because in the columns of Colonel Watterson' s Courier Journal of Louisville, and in liquor paper and leaflets, con- ditions here have been grossly misrepresented, and Lebanon has been held up before the peo- pie as an illustration of the Jaw ful results" of the no-license policy. These representations have been made over the sigma ture of one c. A. Johnson, who is known in this city to be tool of the whiskey crowd. Probable instigator of them is President Wathen of the Kentucky trust who lives here and has done ev erything possible to make the no license policy odious. Johnson is
 
 completely diScredited here-re cognized as a low, common liar, - and Wathen is now under indict. ment in the district court.
