JUDGE NOT, THAT We BE NOT JUDGED"


MI r. NJ Sagle and his supporters this matter
that they could have chosen opportune
effective method had they desired naugurate campaign
cripple the institution i'm the welfare of which they profess
such a deep interest
The legislature will considera
ton the appropriations for the maintenance of college
circulation through the press of the
against the administration of the institution than likely
result IN cutting down the appropriations needed for support
ana may BRING about reapporionmen of the derived
from the mill tax to the lasting detrment college
the appropriations affected publication of such
Iumors and nsnuaons prejudice in
the minds of many citizens which years to efface
AS no specific charges have been made yet is
attempt TO answer the geneaes and hearsay evidence with which
Mr. Sagle deals The definite he has cited that
number of men have left the faculty of the W. accept
more responsible positions at higher salaries other institutions
than anything President Bryan excellent udg
men in the selection and his marked ability the development
his sborateS AS neither Professor Thatcher Humphrey
have authorized indicate that they are
leaving because Of dissatisfaction with the administrations not
proper to drag their into the discussion the present
Mr. Sage states his of dposg of Bryan
follows If he thinks of the than he does of
himself shall ask him make personal resign
for the good of the institution If he thinks
he does OF the institution shall insist the proper
man for the head of the college"
This program both and unfair 1t evasve because
the real question thinks more of
the institution than he does himself versa but whether his
resignation as president would benefit njue the college
unfair because it SINNERS down heads you

dence in him by the regents people
the state
There slight egotm in Mr. Slage assum
to dictate what of action necessary president
ana regents who have been constantly the ground and in close
touch with the matters about which Mr. Sage he has
merely heard since his recent return from the east
AS Mr. Slage comparatively this com
mun he is probably familiar with the history college
and does not know that almost from the day President Bryan
arrived Pullman bitter and persistent waged
against him by small of disappointed dsgrunted men,
who have constantly placed the qualification personal spite
above the welfare of the college
As Mr. Sagle having his educated east naturally
has not taken as much investigating the conditions existing
the college here have daughters are
enrolled the student body 1t therefore but
fully appreciate great President BRYAN has
rendered and is rendering the marked improvement the
standard of the work of the institution during years

President Bryan will be prepared promptly and concusivey
flute charges which be brought against his
know that different times he has refused
institutions offering much higher salaries than he receiving
here and that he refused them because he had
his life the task of building Pullman institution
which would afford opportunity the young
this and future generations education which

years he felt justified transferring the burden
