SCHOOL AND COLLEGE WORK
Activities Marking the Beginning Of
the School Year.
NOTES ON EDUCATIONAL PROGRESS
RebelliOus FrRts Lose out in Denver
COurt-some school Reforms
Genera Educational
News.

LINCOLN. Sept. 26.-(special)-seven
separate colleges now make up the edu-
cational system at the University OF Ne
braska. The Kotouc bill. which was
passed by the last legislature. effected a
change from six loosely organized colleges
under the direction Of various deans and
associate deans 20 the more concrete or
ganization which will prevail with the
opening Of the state school Monday.
Under the new plan there are no assoc
clate deans excepting in the college of
medicine, which has O branch In Omaha,
where DR.. Harold clifford Is In charge.
There are now eight deans. one for each
Of the seven colleges and a chairman for
the board Of deans.
DR.. Charles Bessey. who formerly was
dean Of the Industrial college, now is
senior dean and chairman Of the board
Of deans. He has no executive duties as
head OF any Of the seven colleges. The
other deans Of the university are; Dean
Davis, college Of arts and sciences; Dean
Richards, college Of engineering; Dean
Burnett, college Of agriculture; Dean sher-
man. graduate college; Dean Fordyce,
teachers college; Dean Hastings, college
Of law, and Prof. Wolcott, acting dean Of
the college of medicine.
The old organization Of the university
had several faults that hindered the proper
advancement OF the institution. Under the
old plan the agricultural courses and. the
engineering classes were combined as the
Industrial college, with a dean and two
associates. This system worked well when
the university was young, but in late years
the school had grown so that the plan was
a handicap to both departments.
BY the old organization the university
had two departments that were not legal.
Under the charter Of the university the
state legislature alone can create new col
leges. The graduate college and the teach
ers' college existed solely by act OF the
Board Of Regents. From a strictly legal
point of view these departments had no
right to grant degrees. Under the new
system the existence of these colleges is
made legal.
with the Inauguration of the new order
of things the University Of Nebraska Is
established on a firm basis for the first
time since it's organization. Ever since II
was opened the school has been in some
way deficient. The charter Of 1853 created
six colleges. This organization remained
until the present time.
AS the university grew 1t was necessary
to add new departments, and the restrlc-
tons Of the charter prevented a perfect
organization. The establishment of new de-
partments placed too much work on certain
deans and made the organization OF the
colleges and unweildy mass.
with the adoption of the new plan thtt
incomplete system gives way to a uniform
grouping Of seven colleges, each Under the
control of a single dean and empowered to
grant degrees by a law Of the state,

The perpetual revolution in Near
aqua has involved the execution of a
couple of American citizens serving
in the ranks of the revolutionists, in
spite of. protests made by our state
department. President Taft gave
the Taft smile vacation so far as
concerns the Nicaraguan minister,
and dispatched the cruiser Vicks-
burg and gunboat Des Moines to
Nicaragua ports to protect Ameri-
can citizens and interests until repa-
ration can be made. A strong navy
is handy to have around occasionally.

WHAT BECOMES OF INDIANS?
Correspondent Explains Results of Open
ing up Reservations.
To THE EDITOR:

To THE EDITOR:
1t is not many years ago that the
Indian question was always before
the people and almost as generally
discussed as are the trusts today.
New legislation and an earnest at
tempt of the government to deal
justly by its wards has removed pub
lie agitation
The results of recent conference
between officers of the Indian de-
partment and the Indians on the
Fort Berthold reservation, in central
North Dakota, will give some light
on what the nation is doing for the
Indians today. The reservation COM
prises 965, 900 acres, the largest part
Of which is good agricultural land
and is owned and occupied by about
100 Indians. A bill was introduced
in congress last May proposing to
open a part of the land to settlement
but was opposed by the Indians
until they could have pow wow.
Two commissioners from the In
dian department held a conference
with the Indians at the agency at
EIbowoods the last of September,
which resulted in an agreement that
about 300, 900 acres of the reserva-
ton should be opened to settlement.
The reason for the parley was to get
better terms than existed under the
allotment rule already in force CIV
ing 100 acres to each adult and 80 to
minor children. The final agree
ment was that in addition to allot-
ments, 800 acres of pasture and 100
acres of agricultural land should be
granted. The Indians get from 800
to 4S0 acres of land for each man,
woman and child, and all the timber
in the big bend of the Missouri river
set off for the common use, and some
of the best Ignite coal mines are re-
served for their use.
The Indian department is also to
establish an agricultural experiment
farm of 800 acres on the reservation,
similar to those now conducted by
Minnesota and Dakota to help the
Indian to learn farming.
The Indians now receive from
$4,000 to $4,000 year from the
land from grazing leases, but after
the new adjustment of their affairs
they should get from $4,000 to $50,
600 year from all sources as the
government pays them five per cent
interest on the proceeds of the sale.
The above, | think. shows what

ervation is opened to settlement.
