would strive thus publicly to magnify
the work of any one department at the
expense of another. And for any one
to Gull deliberately. isolate and twist
facts to make 1t appear that there IL
but one department at Wilberforce that
is worth while and to try to convey
that it is not a part of Wilberforce.
but a distinct school, is, to speak mild
ly, an unmitigated attempt to SANDER
the whole institution. no matter what
the motive. 1t becomes an attack that
cannot be overlooked.
WilberfOrce has done much recently
to honor the scholarly editor of the
Crisis. and 1t has always stanchly
upheld the cause and the association
his magazine represents. Not three
months ago it invited him to be 0ns
of the speakers during its commences
ment. and it readily acquiesced in his
selection rs one Of the lecturers in the
summer school (fOr the second time) In
the department he eulogizes at 4176
for five lectures. Wilberforce univer-
sity is indeed courteously e, repaid for
this by the grateful editor.
One thing we state at the outset The
"New Wilberforce' has been n verify
for some years. It.is Wilberforce uni
versity-the whole institution. with all
its departments and not simply one Of
them. No part can. be greater than
the whole. The determination Of enc
mics, internal and external. to try
to swallow up, to ignore, to misrepre-
sent the very department that IL the
genesis Of the whole. giving birth to
all the others and fostering their
growth, the part that stands for higher
education-this determination all au-
thorities here are agreed must not only
be condemned. but put down.
The department the article in the
which calls forth such ELUSIVE praise
was placed here by the state Of Ohio
in 1887. because it wished to help Will
berforce university. and this was the
only way 1t could do so. and because It
was just and right for 1t to be Of serv-
ice to US as we did not receive a share
Of the agricultural land grant under
the Morrill, net. which properly belong
ed to US. but which share went to Ohio
State university. 1t was never In
tended to be an independent depart
ment. and 1t is not one now. The au-
thorities. one and all. recognize that
Wilberforce university with all IT. de-
partments is unit and not congiom-
erate-a unit with but one head. and
that one the president Of the, uni-
versity.

Simply One Institution.
Wilberforce.-The indignation Of Will
berforce university and large body of
alumni and undergraduates at the ar
ticle under the caption THE New Will
berforce' found In the Crisis for Au-
gust compels a reply. though we well
know that unsigned articles anywhere
usually merit only silent contempt I'M
less the editor gives tangible hold by
becoming sponsor for them, says Presi-
dent William S. Scarborough of Viii
berforce university.
In such an article we are accustom-
ed to seek at once the motives inspir-
ing it, In this case we are wondering
whether it was inspired by malicious
desire to strike the college department
in particular. to belittle what it has
done and injure its standing and work
for higher education, or by piqued
spirit which sees an opportunity for
retaliation, or by spirit which thus
repays personal favors through ques-
tionable eulogiums. or was 1t real,
unadulterated ignorance stepped in
egotism? We must leave it for read
ers and those generally acquainted
with the situation to judge.
One thing is true. hswever. No one

PRESBYTERIANS CLASH
ON CAPITAL PUNISHMENT
Bible Cited by Advocates Of
Death Penalty-NO Union
Seminary Report.

CHICAGO, May 25.--Trouble was threat
ened ut to-day's session of the Presby-
terrain General Assembly when recon-
mendations ~ the special committee on
prison reform were presented Tor
adoption When the recommendation pro-
yiding IN part for the abolition of capital
punishment and the Substitution OF life
impr sonment came up for consideration
the supporters of capital punishment
called upon the assembly not to permit
the impression to reach the public that the
church would dlscountenance the Biblical
punishment for murder" Opponents OF
the death penalty made passionate pleas
for the termination OF a system "st once
barbarous cruel and unchristian."
Half "A score OF commissioners strove
simultaneously for recognition, while the
debate was repeatedly interrupted by the
interjection of points of order and calls
for rising votes. The entire question
probably will come up for discussion to-
morrow.
There was much surprise because of the
ease and despatch OF the approval of the
request of the special committee on Union
Theological Seminary OF New York that
its report be permitted to 20 over until
the next assembly. II had been expected
that resolution TO discharge the com
mittee because OF the alleged hopeless
ness OF it's task would he introduced and
that a heated debate would follow.
The report of the committee on educa-
tional policy urged the unity OF Chrisian
education and the unification OF the three
