A Neglected National Duty.

One of the lessons taught by the death
OF Lincoln the American people have new
er been able to put into their national
| textbook. Abraham Lincoln had he
chosen, might have been protected by
| guards and surrounded by secret service
men. Such precautions would have been
| perfectly proper, for Lincoln was the
commander n-chief in a great war and
Washington was never in the course of
that war much more than 100 miles from
the firing line The city contained many
Confederate sympathizers" besides the
desperate element that is always to be
found in the rear of an army. Lincoln,
relying on the manliness of Americans
and their adherence OF assassins. took
his way about Washington as if he were
the humblest, not the foremost, citizen
of the United States. Arguments were
in vain and even the inadequate degree
of vigilance which was exercised in his
behalf was exercised by stealth.
Immediately after Lincoln's death the
American people resolved that law
should be passed giving the federal
courts jurisdiction of the crime of kill
ing, or attempting TO kill the president
of the United States. After great
deal Of discussion of ways and means
to this end. the agitation died out and
nothing was done. Sixteen years later,
when Garfield was murdered. the Amer
lean people again resolved that "some-
thing ought to be DONE but nothing was
done. In 1901, the killing of Mckinley
revived the movement to throw special
protection around the life OF the presi-
dent of the United States. Two argu-
ments at once came into collision in Con-
gress. One was that nasmuch as the
murder OF a president, il it occurred in
a state which had abolished the capital
punishment, would be followed by the
imposition of no severer penalty than a
term of imprisonment. the statutes of
the United States should be given cog
nizance of the crime and the penalty be |
made uniform throughout the union.
The opposition argument was that the |
president is simply citizen who ''hap-
pens" to occupy the highest executive
office in the land. that he when within
a state has no claim TO any higher de.
gree OF protection than the state extends
TO its ordinary inhabitants. This view.

the University.
The students at Beloit college and Lou

arrangement with local papers. The
classes in industrial journalism at the
Kansas Agricultural college contribute
material to The Kansas Industrialist,

diana university actual publication is in

Wherever money has been available or
an agreement with local papers has been
possible the teachers of journalism have
made publication of student copy part
OF their laboratory requirements, and
the opinion has been freely expressed
that the Pulitzer school would find the
same requirements advisable.
The advantages of such procedure seem
obvious. Even the cub reporter ought

THE LATE URBAN A. WOODBURY..

Urban A. Woodbury., who died at Bur,

Vermont's most distinguished citizens be.
cause of his participation in civil and
military life. As a soldier of the Civil
war he displayed the patriotism that
made Vermont famous as the producer
of fighters in the cause of the upholding
OF the union OF states; and at the close
of that struggle he returned to Vermont
and entered vigorously in the business
life of his home city of Burlington and
into the official life as well, meeting with
marked success in the former and being
rewarded by his fellow citizens in the
latter TO the extent that he became lieu
tenant governor and then governor. In
the last named Office he gave a business
like service and retired to private life
with the good wishes Of the people Of
Vermont Ever since then he has main
tanned himself in high place in the re-
gard Of those people because Of his de-
termined stand on matters Of public pol.
lev, a stand taken on honest conviction
that he had chosen his ground according
to the right Through all his life he
was loyal 10 the state. doing all that
he could by word and act for the adj
yancement Of her interests. Vermont
has lost a most loyal citizen.

unfair to offer unjust criticism

it is most OppOTtune for someone to
condemn the practice of various club
or lodge members attending late sa-
loon meetings after lodge. Some
years ago joined a good order, but
dropped out because so many of it's
members insisted on drinking the va
TiOus spiTituous intOxicants in bar
rooms adjacent to the lodge hall. The
influence of such members was bad
and so dreaded their constant urg-
ing to have another drink that sim

have told me since that they have

quit various lodges entirely as I did
or stayed away half Of the time.
Many a wife breads to see her hUs-
band go to lodge because she knows
what will happen after lodge. A few
old tOpers in a lodge will do more
harm to the order than anything else,
for they cause good men>to stay at
home, drive out members and cause
new candidates to hesitate about
joining. No man can compromise
with booze and be a permanent sue
cess. No association of men can ex-
pect to enlarge its sphere of helpful
ness and goodness while continually
catering to saloons and its votaries.

fellow member and attendance will

HOW FISH LIVE IN WATER
Will you please explain to me why a
fish does not drown in wafer the same
as a human being,-Wm. Henderson,
It seems that nature decided that
fishes should live in water and human
being should live on land, and there
fore fishes are provided with giIls
and human being are provided with
lungs through which to breathe. Now
the great difference between giIls and
lungs is that giIls can breathe the
oxygen found in water and they can
not breathe the oxygen which is
found in air. Without oxygen neither
man nor beast nor fish can live. So
the fish with his giIls formed by ma
tuTe to take from water the life-giV-
ing gas, oxygen, can live under wa
ter. Creatures who breathe through
lungs, human beings and the lower
animals, can live only on land where
their lungs get plenty Of the oxygen
which is one of the many gases that
make up air.
