The Public Lard Bill now under consideration by the Legislature is the most important measure has had under consideration, involv- ing as it does the administration of over ten million acres of land and the eventful sale of large portion of this vast area. The gradual sale of this land under proper provisions and the development of the same by pri- Vate individuals should greatly in crease the prosperity of this state and the wise investment of the funds received from sales and leases should, under proper handling, gradually re- tire the debt of the state and by creating funds for the various state institutions and for the State School Fund materially lower the rate of taxation in this state.
 This is essentially a business meas ure and the lands should be handled

On the other hand there have been inserted in the substitute bill, pro- visions designed to guard against what appeared to be defects in the original senate bill, so as to give the state the power to guard against the disposition of such lands as 1t may be advisable to hold for the time be- ing, such as timber lands, etc.

Shake Up in the German Navy

Berlin, Sept. 25.-Emperor
William has given the German
navy the greatest shake-up in its
history as a result of the submar-
inc policy which for a time threat
ened to cause break between
the Berlin and Washington gov
ernments.
More than dozen officers who
have been performing duties at
the Admiralty in positions subor-
dinate to the Admiralty have been
assigned to duties at other points.
1t is understood that Germany
will not abandon it's submarine
campaign against American ship
ping but forewarnings will be
given and passenger ships will be
spared.
1t has been known that changes
were pending and that officials
opposed to Chancellor Won Beth

titude toward the United States
would be retired.

freshmen in the university and

school began, Mayor PATTERSON

the cause of the freshmen. When

mayor was on hand to stop it and
in one fight two sophomores were
arrested and held in the city hold
over half the night. Then it was
that the first threats of hazing

Wilson is Against Extra Session
Of Senate.

Washington, Sept. 25.-Offi-
Gals in President Wilson's conf
dence said today that the Presi-
dent has practically decided
against calling an extra session Of
the Senate to meet in October to
revise it's rules. The President
takes the view, it was explained.
that an extra session would mean
a discussion of international rela-
tions of the United States, some
thing which he is very anxious to
avoid.
A message from Senator Kern,
received today, explained that
while the Senator favored an ex.
ira session, he would not urge it
if it was felt that it would embar-
rass the administration. 1t is ex-
pected that an official announce
ment that no extra session will he
held will be made next week.

Senator Stone Would Train Stu

Washington Sept. Ex-senator
Stone Of Missouri says the Euro
pean war has Shown. that it is
essential that America have IA
large number of Young men
trained in military science and in
the handling of men and war
ships. He believes that either the
cadets at West Point and Annapo-
lis should be greatly increased,
perhaps doubled, or provision
should be made for the military
training of young men at institu-
tons of leraning in the various
states, at Government expense.
There should be an under
standing that any time the cOun-
try needs these trained men who
have had their education at Gov
eminent expense they would be
available" he declared.
Senator Stone favOrs an en-
larged navy and says more atten-
ton should be given to the Nation
al Guard by the Federal Govern
ment and States. He favOrs some
increase in the regular army, but
would oppose large standing
army.
He believes the country should
have a large store of modern ar
tillery and ammunition.
