COLLEGE, MERGER PLAN OFF
Bellevue Trustees Make Formal
Declaration of Independence.
CAMPAIGN LAUNCHED FOR MONEY
With Consolidation Scheme Blocked
Effort VIII Be Made to Secure
@15O,OOO to Insure Perma-
nence of Old school.

n
Trustees OF BELLEVUE college, in session
Friday afternoon at the Young Mems
Christian association building, formally and
finally voted to reject the proposition to
merge with Hastings college as ordered
by the Presbyterian synod at it's last ses-
sion.
By taking this action the trustees have
made a declaration Of independence from
the synod and will endeavor to rehabilitate
the finances OF the school and place it on
a sound financial basis. Plans were made
for an immediate campaign to be launched
at once to raise funds to insure the future
life OF the school,
The following resolutions were adopted
by the trustees after the merger proposi-
tion had been coldly turned down:
Resolved, That the board of trustees
recognizes that Bellevue college is a trust
committed to It for maintenance, protec-
ton and development at Bellevue, and we
hereby express our determination to main
tain the college in its integrity at Belle
vue with all its present functions unim-
paired that we recognize the necessity for
an immediate and aggressive financial cam
paign along the lines suggested by the
executive committee in October and that
We NohS up anu pIOhtCulS II
campaign for the SECURING OF funds to the
amount of s15OoOo at least. $4,000 OF this
amount to be applied to current expenses
and $1C0,0O0 to be invested as endowment,
and we, the trustees, pledge our individual
and collective active support in this en-
deavor, and we invite the friends of Chris
tian education throughout the state of Ne
braska and the east to join In this work,
SO that while the permanence of Bellevue
college is assured, its effectiveness may be
kept up to a standard of assured compe-
tence"
Hastings college has already given out
the impression that 1t, Is weary of the
whole matter and wfil-do nothing to coerce
or dissuade Bellevue from it's position.
The legal action filed by Bellevue to en-
join the merger probably will be dropped
now in view of the formal action of
Bellevue and Hastings attitude.
Those present at the conference were DR..
Edwin Hart jerks, H. f. Maxwell, Robert
Dempster, Judge A. l.. Sutton and Henry
T. Clarke of Omaha, Dr. W. A. Kearns Of
Beatrice. DIR. r. H. Brsden and Mr. Burtch

for long time, where a murderer hav-
ing escaped the consequences of his crime
by the plea Of Insanity, is trying to escape
the consequences OF his plea by means OF

After being in session four days
the Grand Jury was discharged.
The Jury was imposed Of good,
clean, honest and conscientious men
and their quick work is a satisfaction
to the people Of the County. Fol.
lowing its organization, the members
settled down to work and as a result
of their prompt attendance to duty,
they were able to complete their
labors 10 short period of time, and
thereby save the taxpayers much
money.
The report as submitted to the
Court shows that only twenty cases
came before them for investigation,
three Of which were dismissed, one
carried over to the next meeting Of
the Jury and sixteen presentments
found.
The small number Of cases that
came before them speaks we'll for
the excellent conditions that exist 10
our County. In its report the Grand
Jury highly praises the people Of the
county for the sobriety and general
good order that exists here 10 the
County, and further claims that this
is the banner county for sobriety and
good order.
This must indeed make every
citizen Of the County feel proud Of
bis home and proud Of the condition
bat surround them. As expressed
BY the Grand Jury it is only to be
hoped that this will continue and
that Ehen the next Grand Jury
meets, that il will he able to sanction
and uphold the claim Of this jury OF
good citizens to the effect as stated
before that we hold claim to the
title Of the banner County Of the
State for sobriety and general good
order.
Recommendations were made by
the jury that immediate necessary
repairs be made to the G ounty Jail
This is a wise recommendation and
the proper authorities should look
into the condition of Apur Jail and
remedy whatever defects that now
exist. 70 the Grand J9ry in con-
clusion we must say:

Presid ent William Howasd Taft
will open the Seventh Convention
Of the National Rivers and Harbors
Congress on Wednesday,, December
7tb, in the assembly ball Of the New
Willard, Washington. This hall is
capable Of seating 1900 people, and
as it was crowded to the doors last
year when the President delivered
the welcoming address, it seems safe
to predict an even larger attendance
this year.
The Importance Of the coming
Convention Of the National Rivers
and Harbors Congress cannot be
over-estimated. 1t means much fol-
the improvement of the water Ways
Of the United States for, should the
clo,iag session of the ti1st Congress
fail to pass river and harbor bill
the 62nd Congress would have ne
precedent to follow and might refuse
to make appropriations, except al
has been the practice heretofore, a
bill every two or three years The
National Rivers and Harbors Con-
Gress has been fighting these sporadic
appropriations ever since its organi-
cation ten years ago and now that
victory is just in sight, officials Of
the Congress, including Representa-
tive Joseph E. Ransdell, of Ia, who
is President of the Congress, are
urging, with all their power, the
attendance OF the friends OF water
ways upon the forthcoming conyen-
ton to the end that the Federal Con-
gress may realize how vast the senli-
ment is in the United States for 4
yearly river and harbor bill.
