STUNNING THE LIGHT

Last week the board of regents OF
the State College of Washington pub
lished an announcement that any
person or persons wishing to present
charges against the administration Of
the institution would be given an OPP
portunity to file written, specific
charges at the meeting of the board
which was held here last Wednesday,
and that hearing thereon would be
granted and the same considered.
The only reply to that announce
ment was the following letter:
Pullman, Wash,
Feb 10, 1913.
Honorable r. c. McCroskey,
President of the Board of Re-
gents of the State College Of
Washington
My Dear Mr.. McCroskey:
Since my conference with you on
the first day of February of this
year regarding college affairs, the.
have TRANSFERRED conditions which
lead me to believe that for the best
interests of all, it will be unwise for
me to present any charges at the
meeting of your board today. Some
Oh the items l have tabulated are
based upon confidential and unso-
nelted information. Such informa-
ton, to be effective, must be sub
stantiated by the men who made it.
and l, in my unofficial position,
could not possibly comply with the
conditions made in the call for the
meeting, as published in the news
papers.
Thanking you for your courtesies
and favors, l remain,
Sincerely yours,
FRANK NJ. SLAGLE.
Mr.. Slagles letter indicates that
aiter having made bitter attack on
the administration of the college
through the public press, he is now
stunning the light and is either UNI
aDie or unwilling to reduce his gen
efalties and insinuations to the
form Of specific charges. This is the
only construction which can be
paced upon his letter. But two con-
uiuons were required in the invita-
ion OF the regents, namely, that the
oharges should be filed in writing
and should be specific. Mr. Slagle
says that he could not possibly com
ply with these conditions. AS there
% no question of his ability to write,
follows that the condition which
prevented him from accepting the in

says that some of the items which
