senate,s Shame peepened

The United States Senate has
sunk one degree lower in the estima-
ton OF the American people. For
once again a nauseated nation sees in
that sanctuary of special privilege, in
the majority of special committee,
the open. shameless union Of the "old
guards" OF both nominal parties sac
rifcing personal decency, political
principle, party and public needs to
save the official place of the benelici-
airy of the foulest corruption In the
history of American politics.
So far as the verdict in the Lorim-
err case is concerned. all such com
mittees and all such reports and lat
er the votes of such senators as the
shameless forty-six who voted for the
earlier whitewash amount only TO self
branding by confessed servants Of
special privilege. The real verdict
has been reached and registered by
jury OF 90,000,000. For when The
odore Roosevelt addressed the fellow
club members OF William Lorimer,
after refusing to sit at the same table
with that corruptionist, he spoke the
universal and justified sentiment Of
every honest and well informed Amer
lean citizen in these words:
mo one can read the records Of
this investigation without being con.
WINGED that the Illinois legislature
was guilty OF the foulest corruption
and treason to the institutions Of
the United States"
The trainers OF this disgraceful re.
port are not moral monstrosities,
even though they do call upon this
nations senate to degrade itself to
the plane OF dlshonor OF the creature
OF the beef trust and lumber trust.
These men, like the thirty.five Re
publicans and eleven Democrats who
voted TO save Lorlmer last year. are
simply living proofs Of the almost In.
resistible pressure which special pri-
village brings to bear upon public men
who In their individual capacities live
decent. honorable lives.
No ordinary political exigency
could cause men who are not Grimm
ais to declare In substance that a
beneficiary OF confessed bribery is
mot disqualified for the United States
senate unless he has qualified for the
penitentiary."
Special privilege and only special
privilege, swinging its lash upon the
backs OF It's senatorial servants. could
so eliminate party feelings. tradition.
al dignity. and elementary decency
and unite It's servants In both parties
N shameless shielding OF the exposed
corruptionist, utterly dlsgraced and
repudiated by his own state.
There Is no politics in this Lori.

y" CONFERENCE
WAS SUCCESSFUL
State Executive Committee
Met With McDilla at Far.
60 This Week

Fargo. n. D.. March 2.-George w.
McDill of Chicago, international COM
mittee field secretary for the north
west. held a conference with State
Secretary A. l.. Miller and tho Y. NJ.
c. A. state committee here thi week.
The conference was concerning a
plan Of Mr.. McDill. John r. Mott and
a. G. Elliott of the student depart
ment OF the International committee
for whom MIR. McDill is now making
an investigation to the wisdom of
conducting student work under the
direction of the state work of North
and South Dakota. Wisconsin and
Minnesota. AS a business proposition
1t seems wise to the international
committee that these four states be
covered by n student secretary.
MIR. McDill pointed out in the con-
ference last evening hat there were
a few less number of colleges in these
four states than in either Iowa or
Illinois. abou the same number Of
total membership and about the same
grade of efficiency and that it might
prove business economy to organize
these four states into one. Already
the Wisconsin state committee has
agreed to this and there is every in
dication h a Minnesota will follow
suit. j. &. Childs. formerly student
secretary of the University of Wiscon-
sin. has entered h field under this
program and is now working in Wis
cnnsin. Although Wisconsin and
Minnesota have state committees.
neither nave student secretaries.
The plan advocated by Mr.. McDill
is that there shall he an INTERPRETATION
between h student secretary and the
already existing state committees and
he international committee. The sup
nOff fO ha rocnivad fV0n, Tho .%oto
committees assigned to and vouched
for ny the international committee.
After considerable discussion the mat
ter was left to be taken up at the Y.
NJ. c. A. state convention which con-
venes at Grand Forks March Is and
Is.
1t seemed to be the unanimous
opinion of the representatives Of the
North Dakota association that the
-FOUR states We're too large Il field to
be covered by n secretary; too much
time would be absorbed in travel
which would also entail great expense.
Although the state committee has not
been able so far to fully raise its
budget there is great indication that
this will be accomplished this year;
While the work was never in better
condition and is equal to that of many
OF the larger and better organized
states. 1t is hardly probable that the
program will go through as far as
North Dakota is concerned.
Those present at the conference
were F. H. Squires. DIR. c. N. Call

representing President Creegan. State
Secretary A. L. Miller, and the Asso.

Darlington, N. D., March 2.-Car-
rington contributed the second largest
average attendance that the short
course" on the North Dakota agricul-
tural college extension bureau has en-
joyed in the state this winter. Despite
the fact that the week was full of
counter attractions, Prof. Randlett
and assistants were favored with an
average audience of over forty at each
of the afternoon and evening sessions.
It would be folly to compare the
good that can be obtained from in
stitutes with that from the short
course. Both are excellent institutions
and Darlington will want both in the
future. They can we'll work together,
