STUDENTS ARE F-GovERNED
(New York Independently .

(NeW ork independently Popular government in the form of the initiative, referendum and recall has found a home at the University of Washington. The adoption of pro- vision placing matters of student dis cipline in the hands of the student body has brought to completion the several years task of establishing un- dergraduate rule.
 The students elect yearly president vice. president and a board of control which, like the national congress, is the legislative body.
 These legislators and all other elected officers are subject to a recall election upon the petition of 25 per- cent, of their fellows and may be re- called by a majority vote. The refer endum can be invoked by a 10 per- py 15 percent A majority vote Is re- luired for action. The difficulty with che initiative Is the tendency of the students to vote in favor of any initia- ted measure; however, 1t may be that ,tremely good judgment Is used in re- gard to what is brought before the body.
 The censorship of the official stu dent daily, originally function of the student board, has been transferred to the president of the university. Thus the organ of public opinion is placed beyond the power of any faction in control.
 Judicial authority is in the hands of the student discipline committee. Financial matters are placed in the hands of a salaried student manager and tax of $5 student is levied at the beginning of the school year to furnish necessary funds. The book store and other student enterprises are co operative
 Student government at the Universi- ty of Washington has been eminently successfully, and there have been no abuses arising from this experiment of self control. It has facilitated many improvements in student affairs. The board has now undertaken to abolish cheating in examinations by establish ing the "honor system" Responsibil- ity sobers these undergraduate citizens and they are receiving the best possi-

THE ART OF ILLUMINATION.
(New York Press.)


 "The progress of the lighting has just about kept pace with the progress of civilization"
 This statement made before the con- vention of the Illuminating Engineer ing Society in Washington, grips the imagination. Man has developed great forces to make light since the days of the tallow candle. But even with the coming of gas and electric lights a new sast few years tremendous progress has been made in the study of scien- tific lighting. Not only exterior illumination, for beauty's sake, but the proper use of illumination in industrial plants stores and homes has made wonderful strides.
 Only little while ago the habit was to place as many lights in an office or station or reading room as seemed necessary to vision. Now the problem of indirect lighting. of semi direct lighting, of colored and reflected rays and kindred questoins are solved in scientific fashion.
 There is a curious paradox in the fact, that according to the scientific en- gineers, the two greates, forces in progress of this science during the past years should have been the war, an agent of destruction and suffering,a and the Panama Pacific exposition,a monu ment to peace and progress.

IT'S THE ENvtRoNM ENT.
Seattle Star.j


 Eastern bankers estimate that this country has approximately nine bil- lions in gold money, ordinary money and notes due from foreigners on goods sold, and they are warning against wild imitation of speculation"
 Outside of Wall street, where the gamblers are wild enough. the signs of any wild imitation of speculation" are not visible to the naked eye.
 Most of the larger cities of the coun- try report heavy increases in build ing operations. It is true that many manufactories are on night and day shifts because of war orders. It Is also true that in many vacations wages have been raised and hours of labor reduced. But in none of these things is there any dangerous imitation. Be- cause the return to normal conditions of prosperity is unusually sudden Is no sign of wildness. The average busi- ness man is doing no plunging and the winter promises to reveal a con- siderable army of unemployed.
 But locate anybody in the neigh borhood of that Wall street maelstrom of speculation and he'll be very apt to believe that the whole nation has gone mad over speculation.

BRETON PROMISES
 PROMPT PAYMENT FOR COTTON, SEIZED
Embassy Announces That Government Is Endeavor-
 ing to Hasten Settlements.

Washington, May 2.-The British embassy gave out the following state ment tonight in reference to detention of cotton cargoes in Great Britain:
 "The embassy is informed that the British government is doing all it can to expedite the purchase of cotton cargoes and are in direct communica- tion for this purpose with the Ameri- can cotton representatives in Lon don. Payment will be made without delay in each case to the proper par ties on proof that they are the per sons entitled to the payment, and on their furnishing evidence of contract price. Need for these particulars is now the only obstacle in making pay ment."
 The long detention of cargoes of cotton in British ports and the con- tinued difficulties of the shippers in getting settlement from the British government are two of the matters which are said here to demand new note to Great Britain.

STATE OFFICERS OF ELkS ID HOLD
 OFFICE 2 YEARS
Meeting Here Yesterday De- cides to Make 1916 Conven-
 tion Biggest Ever Held.

That the present staff of state off cers will be continued Tn service an other year and that plans to make the 1916 convention of the Organiza- tion the biggest and best ever held in Arkansas, was the decision reached yesterday at the annual meeting of the state officers of the Elks, held at the Hotel Pines.
 The state officers of the organiza- ton were called to meet here when it was decided, some time ago, not to hold the regular convention of the Elks this year, because of the condi- tions prevalent in all sections of the state. It was decided at that time that the business which ordinarily would come before the state conven- ton could be disposed of by the state officers, and it was to handle such business that yesterdays. meeting was held.
 Those in attendance were N. J. Can't, Jr., of Pine Bluff. the state president, who presided; A. c. Rem mel of Little Rock. first vice presi- dent; T. l.. Hewlett of Hot Springs, secretary, duu M. dlDSOu OL 1NcW. v. port, treasurer. The session was held during the afternoon, the matters con- sidered referred to the good of the organization only and were of no interest to the general public, except the action relative to the virtual re- election of the present staff of officers and the 1916 convention.
 The 1916 convention will be held in Pine Bluff in May of next year and as a result of the discussion during yesterdays session, plans will be formulated to make it an unusually big affair, in every respect. Pre- parations will be started at once, with that end in view.
 The state officers were entertained at luncheon yesterday by the local lodge of Elks. It was decided also that all the visitors will participate today in the entertainment features of the convention of the Travellers. All the visitors remained over for that purpose, except MT. Remmel. who was compelled to return to Lit tie Rock last evening. MT. Remmel will come to Pine Bluff again this morning, however, to participate in the jollification.

 Western Area.

in new massed formation, the Austro- German legions under General vor Mackenzen are drawing closer the iron ring around Przemysl, while the heavy Krupp guns are battering a the fortress which the Russian howit gers shelled only a few months ago
 Along the entire front on the Sar and the Denister, the fighting is pro. cccding with great violence, while opaque mists and heavy rains rendering the terrain difficult, have brought a practical halt to operations of any magnitude in the west.
 Further gains for the Teutonic al- lies in their drive against the Rus sian center seem to have been made according to reports from Vienna and Berlin, although Petrograd military experts believe that Grand Duke Nicholas is slowly concentrating his forces on this front and stemming the momentum of the drive which carried von Mackenzen's allied forces close on the heels of the Russians across western Galacia.
 Strong Russian counter attacks were developed yesterday, according to Vienna, on the east bank of the San at Sineiawa, in the Jaroslau region. The Austrian headquarters claim that these were repulsed with heavy losses to the Russians and that the Austro-Germans are pressing steadily to the east and southeast. IT. the southeast lies Przemysl; far tc the eats Iemburg, there two objec- tives of the Teuton drive.
 Russians Attack: Lose Positions.
 Berlin, regarding this fight, repeats the Vienna statement, declaring that north of Przemysl fierce Russian at. tacks upon the allied forces whicl had crossed the San were repulset and that the Teutons, pursuing the defeated Russians, stormed a number of their positions.
 On the upper Dneister also, the Austrians claim additional successes In one sector alone, to the north ci Sambor, the Russians were driven from their main defensive positions Vienna reports. and $500 more pris oners were taken.
 In the west, the rain-soaked ter rain has made operations of any sort difficult. Paris reports a violent artillery duel on the front between
