In any other sum- that Mr. Griths has been libeled
by this newspaper The Tribune has called attention to
ofhcial acts of Mr. Grffths and others holding public
office, and often in spirit of criticism because we be-

iency, not of truth or fact. They
whom he may injure will naturally ar
que that man whom they pay should
take no part against them. If he does
he should be discharged. If he is not
then the institution employing him
should be penalized. The final result
will be that the state university will
simply add to the number and infu-
ence of its enemies; its appropriations
will be reduced and it may be dismem-
bered and scattered over the state. At
present it can barely avoid this fate by
modest demands, and making as few
enemies as possible.
The university heads may say there
is no politics in seeking an improve
ment in the administration of the state
or of any municipality. But the car
rylng out, amendment or institution
of these plans are politics; and in pol
itics nothing is more frequent and eff
fective than building fire at the rear
of opponents. If the state university
permits its faculty to enter public con-
troversies the natural result will be
for those opposed to bounce a brick
off the bean of that institution.
Prof. Lewis should go way back and
sit down, tend to his knitting leaving
political changes to those whom they
concern. If he has time to spend on
leagues of various kinds it is evident
his teaching duties are too light and
the regents should add enough work
to keep him out of mischief.

the American public has lost all in

in progress. 1t is now difficult to at
tract any attention to the dregs of this

out, day by day. Apparently the peo-

general and retributive memory of an
Illogical and impotent proceeding.
1t is weary work watching the sur

German government now actually
hopes to set UP its submarine war

OF merchant ships, and obtaining our
warrant for carrying out the plan.
Merchant ships are to lose, under the
threatened change of base on the part
OF our government, the privilege of

HENRY WATTERSON ON
WATCHFUL WAITING,
- (Wallace Miner.)

When Republicans criticise the pol
icy or lack of policy of the Wilson ad.
ministration toward Mexico they are
accused of introducing partisan poll,
tics into matter in which there is nc
oltics and in which the administra.
ton should have the support of all
loyal citizens. If the structures thus
placed upon Republicans are true
what have the defenders of the ad-
ministration to say of the following
from Henry Watterson? No one dare
question the democracy of the great
Kentucky editor, for he was expound-
ing democratic doctrine when many
of the present day oracles of the
democratic faith were wearing swad-
ding cloths. In recent signed edi-
torial in his paper, the Louisville

time-serving policy of the administra-

Intervention is only question OF

volcanic land.
Truth to say, the Mexicans are as
incapable of self-government as the
tribes on our far western reservations
In no sense do they constitute a ma

more or less antagonistic agglomera-

negro, mongrel and whatnot-the
very best of them, embracing scarcely
a tenth of the population, fit for little
else than brgandage.
MIR. Wilson came in under a most
mistaken conceit He pursued this
with the obstinacy characteristic of the
self-confident theorist. He backed
and filled; he would and he wouldn't;
he marched up the hill and then he
marched down again. All the while
the havoc and footing went forward

meshes of old Wiskerando's whiskers
