At the beginning OF the season,

but there are some subjects IN civil

able to cover and he will return again
next year. He will probably receive
his degree this year in that work. how

ONE UNIVERSITY, ONE A. AND M.

Governor Colquitt harps on the fact
that the University now has right
to establish, in connection with its
other departments, an A. and M. Col
lege. He cites as reason, that the
Constitution provides for it. He then
goes on to show that the A. and NJ.
College is a branch of the University
and quotes the same section of the
Constitution which provides for an A.
and NJ. College in connection with the
University He states that the A. and
NJ. College was located in Brazos
County, ratified by the Legislature and
its location engrafted in the Constitu-
ton. We agree with his interpreta-
ton of the law and the Constitution on
this last point, but here we call halt.
We deny the right of the University
to establish another A. and NJ. College
at Austin or anywhere eles. The con-
stitutional provision for an A. and NJ.
College in connection with the Univer-
sity was complied with when the pres
ent A. and NJ. College was established
at College Station, it's location ratified
by the Legislature and engrafted into
the Constitution as branch OF the
University. This fulfilled the law as
to an A. and NJ. College. and the
University now has no more right to
establish one at Austin, than it has
to establish one at Dallas, Amarillo or
anywhere else in the State. The foun-
ders of the school evidently did not
intend but one A. and NJ. College; it
has been established, is doing a great
work and should not be disturbed. Let
the States aid be concentrated on the
University, where it is and for all it
needs, so that it may continue to
develop. until it shall be the pride OF
all Texas. Also let the States aid be
concentrated on the A. and NJ. Col
lege where it is, and for all it's needs,
SO that it, too, may continue to de-
velop and be the school of the masses,
where the sons of Texas may receive
that training and education in agricul-
ture and the mechanical arts and sci
ences, thus preparing them for impor-
tant positions in the industrial world.

HEAVY ENROLMENT EX-
PECTEO At A. AND NJ.

Requests for catalogues from the A.
and NJ. College have been heavier dur
ing the past month than at any time
in the history of the school. This in
dicates that the enrolment of Fresh
men when the College opens its thirty
eighth session, September "a, 1913,
will be far in excess of the average at
tendance of new men.
Registrar Friley has received 4OS APP
plications for catalogues during May
and the early days of June. Interest
among prospective students in the
east and north has been much heavier
than is the case generally.
ut is a safe assertion that the ma
jority of the young men who write us
for catalogues will apply for appoint
ment as Students" said Registrar
Friley today. The action of the fac
ulty in stopping hazing of the Fresh
men has resulted in the determination
of many parents to send their boys
here according to the letters we have
been receiving of late. Another thing
that is attracting favorable attention
is the completion of the 100000 mess
hall and the new main building which
will cost more than 100000 when
completed. Both of these building will
be ready for occupancy by the open
ing of the school in September"
An enrolment of more than 1000 is
expected by President Miner for the
next scholastic term. Practically all
of the students who were cadets here
during the past term will return.

SENATE SHOWS BUT NARROW
MARGIN.

The Democrats have a majority of
six in the Senate, on which the Phila-
delphia Record thus speculates; IF
the two Louisiana Senators should
vote against the tariff bill on account
of sugar, and Senator Newlands
should vote against it on account Of
wool or citrus fruits-for Nevada is
only a pocket borough Of California
and all the Republicans and the one
Progressive should vote against it,
there would be a tie, which would af-
ford the Vice President the oppor-
tunity and the duty of giving the cast
ing vote for the tariff measure of his
party. But Senator Miles Poindexter
of Washington is a Progressive and
may vote for the bill. 1t is not likely
to be defeated"

BONDING THE PEOPLE.
What the Proposed Constitutional

What the Proposed Constitutional
Amendment Implies.
To the POST
The people understand that Austin
Is the center at which lobbyists gather
and get in their work. Will the people
of Texas vote to amend the Constitu.
ton so as to give these lobbyists full
power to pool their issues, roll their
logs, and load the peole down with
bonds?
! Before a single bond for any city in
Texas can be issued the people have
a right to vote on it. Before a single
school district in the State or in any
county, even for good roads, the people
must at the ballot box first say how
large a burden is to be incurred. In
the face Of these facts and in defiance
of the rights of the people, we now
find sly movement on foot, led by
the president and professors of the
University and other real estate own
ers of Austin, to take away from the
people their right to say how many
bonds shall be issued or how much
burden they (the people, must incur.
Here is another fact equally signif-
cant and equally suspicious: Some Of
the very men who have pretended to
favor the rule Of the people, and news
papers that have advocated the refer
endum strongly in all other matters,
