TRIANGLE COLLEGE Reunion
PROVES HAPPY OCCASION

Harvard. Yale, and Princeton alumni
Of Wilmington turned out yesterday at
the Country Club in celebration of the
most iubilaut field day and dinner the
Triangle has witnessed in this city.
The afternoon was enjoyed at field
sports, including competitive golf, trap
shooting, base ball. and tennis, in which
the "old boys were not by any means
owtdonc by the youngsters. The silver
cup, awarded each year TO the college
gaining the most points in tho athletic
game was rudely wrostled by Harvard
from the over-confdent Princeton teams
But Princeton was a cheerful loser, and
the Tigers" say they guess they can
get along without tho cup until next
year.
Eugene =. DUPONT was the star per
former in two events, making a score Of
22X25 at tho traps, and covering first
base with an eye ghich was the envy
of every player of the great American
game A spotter from the "Phillies' was
heard TO remark that he was going to
offer "Gene" a place on the Quaker City
team.
David Marvel presided at the dinner.
whore the first tribute was extended by
I
tion of the cup, which was slipped a fond
eau revoir' by the Tigers and then sip
ped and passed on by each man to
Alexis I. DUPONT who received it for the
Crimsons.
As the evening slipped away. so did
the restraint and cares of the most care
worn alumni. The Crimson victors had
10 concede the singing honors 10 the
Tigers, with the "Bull Dogs" close
second. But the Crimson regained its
supremacy through little ditiv sung

the demon alcohol if you will help. and
YOU, and YOU"
Fair Harvard "Boola." and "Old
Nassau" together with ten many field
songs and "Uncle sammy, he has the
/ Infantry" helped to make the fourth
annual dinner of the associated clubs
the best attended and most enjoyed

and enthusiastically closed with the

Germany is now beginning to realize
that entirely fresh armies from the

Speculation in Supplies Abroad.

From the Bohemian hop-raising districts comes
an account of last seasons experience that DEM
onstrates how widespread and all-inclusve is the
impulse to speculate in the necessity Of the world
A bumper yield OF hops was harvested, and Of
good quality, the early sales being at fair price
But the limitations placed on mailing by the gov
eminent cut down the quantity OF hops needed
for beer and soon the price sagged to point
considerably below cost of production. But the
hop growers had no alternative save to sell, as
they needed the money represented by their crops,
so the yield soon changed hands. In the mean
time the forehanded German brewers learning
that Bohemian hops were on the market at as
tonishing low prices. and realizing the advan-
tage Of having them in storage when the war is
over and beer flows again as once It did, set out to
take advantage Of the opportunity, As soon as buy
ing became general prices began to soar, and finally
reached point high above any previous expert
ence. The profit, however, went to the middle
man, although as yet no talk is heard Of hanging
him. The Bohemian farmers will 60 on raising
hops, the German brewers will not enjoy the har-
vest they looked ahead to and the canny Austrian
spectators will smilingly cut melon" and be
ready for the next time. Even governmental price
fixing doesn't always head off the persistent
gamblers. .. 49,. &rI.

Public Interest in Civic Affairs.

Do Americans exhibit the deep interest in
civic affairs that should be taken in so important
a matter as that of the government Maybe the
answer to this question can be found in the
vote cast at the city election in Lincoln on Tues
day Questions Of utmost importance to the peo-
pie OF the city were submitted for decision by the
voters; full city commission, mayor and mem
bers OF the school board were to be chosen, men,
bers Of commission to formulate charter for
the city and the question Of extending the fran
chise Of the street railway company also being
on the ballot Nothing OF greater moment could
be submitted to the voters OF a community at an
ordinary election Yet only few over 1000 took
the trouble to vote instead OF the expected $4,000,
In other words less than onethird of the eligible
electors Of the city cared enough about the form
of government under which they are to live or
the character and policies Of the men who are to
administer it to express choice at the polls 1t
is true, perhaps, that the high character of the
men who were SGT before the people on a nom
partisan ballot was such as left little room for
the exercise of selectve discrimination between
them, but, admitting this, these men who offered
themselves to the service Of the community at least
deserve the compliment of vote rather than
the negative endorsement OF indifference. If the
great privilege OF the franchise is thus neglected
in center OF intellectual activity like Lincoln,
what may be expected in cities where more time
and thought is given to the sordid pursuits Of

Torpedoing Hospital Ships

If It is the German desire to destroy whatever
shreds Of sympathy for the cause OF autocracy
may still lnger in odd corners of civilization the
deliberate sinking Of hospital ships should serve
In Hague treaty signed by Germany the
safety OF such chips Is guaranteed To mark a sa-
cred character which until now has always been
respected they are conspicuously painted and we'll

awful precautions have not safeguarded British
hospital ships from submarine attack, but have
made il easier, more certain and more deadly
In their purposed and avowed torpedoing OF
vessels bearing helpless and suffering men the
Germans have sunk one which bore not only 234
British wounded, but l67 of their own men, Ac-
customed to the ruthlcssness OF their officers
these Germans became panic-strcken, evidently
fearing that they might be abandoned. This made
rescue difficult, but the valor with which British
seamen have ever worked to save life did not fail
All but fifteen OF the Germans were saved: OF the
British wounded and the crew nineteen persisted
The murder Of hostages the deportation OF
French and Belgian workmen and even girls of
tender years to work as slaves, the nameless of
ferses against humanity and dccency in occupied
lands had well defined German Kultur. But it
has won fresh laurels now; hereafter hospital

Western Nebraska is setting a pace for the
older settled parts of the state by organizing
early to get its good roads campaign under mo-
tion A gathering Of representative men assem-
bled at Gering and took definite steps for the
constructive work to be pushed under the fed
eral aid and state participation law. Highways to
be improved were endorsed, the amounts to be
raised by the several counties were specified and
everything preliminary to the actual work was
practically settled upon. The energy thus dis
played Is characteristic Of that section but it has
also spirit that is commendable. Nothing of
local jealousy appeared in the conference nor any
attempt to secure advantage for one section over
another. 1t was realized that the program must
be continuing one and to be successful must
have well defined beginning, II this example is
generally followed in Nebraska it will not be many
years until the state has highway system that
will be worthy Of the name and the farmers, who
are the chief users of the roads, will be getting
the benefit of the money they annually expcnd on
construction and repair.

Victory for Free Speech

The decision OF the supreme court that the
house of representatives did not have the right
to punish United States Attorney Marshall OF
New York for alleged contempt is sound sense,
And that it is sound law as we'll is something to
be thankful for. Indeed, the decision is a great
victory for free speech that goes far beyond the
issue in question. The house, as most people
felt, not only committed an act Of folly in sending
a prejudiced smelling committee to investigate
Mr.; Marshall, but It went further in its folly in
trying to intimidate the Woodworking prosecutor
when, outraged by the clumsy attack on his COM
potency and by the violation of all proprieties OF
procedure, he told the committee exactly what
he thought of it.
As a matter of fact, the country rose to Mr..
Marshalrs support, and the house was really in
contempt OF public opinion The committee
which looked into the Marshall case did not
hesitate to colate even the malicious grievances
OF the usual ritfrat that are apt to be involved i'll
the nets OF federal justice and in doing so made
spectacle OF itself that will not long be forgot
ten. The supreme court, however, went further
than the mere issue of Mr.. Marshas alleged in
subordination for in unfolding the right of citi-
gems, whether in office or ont to criticize freely
those representing them in congress or in legis-
atures, as it might be, the court is true to Ameri
can ideas and ideals. II would Strike at the
whole system OF representative government, as
the court pointed out. It congress could hale any
body before it for criticism Of Its acts or debates
or the individual action Of It's members, who are
answerable not only to their constituents, but to
that greater constituency too the public at large,
the country as q whole
Congressman and legislators would like to for
get all this, and when held up for some folly
would like to choke off criticism, just as those
who are before the public as propagandists be-
licve that they, too are above the indictment OF
those who do not agree with them. Fortunately,
the supreme court thinks otherwise and has not
set up the congress as privileged and sacrosanct
body. The Marshall decision should prove to be
a very efectual warning at time when freedom
OF speech from tribune anG rostrum avid in print
was never more important to the welfare OF the
country and the citizen.

Railroad Help for the Allies.

allies will be to curtail train service here and
send the surplus rolling stock and other mate.

will strike home as common sense proposal
Americans realize that they must go on war
basis very soon and in nothing will their material
interests or comforts suffer so little as in the mat.
ter OF giving up Injuries of railroad travel. Cut.
ting off duplicate trains and putting the entire
passenger service on basis Of cooperation rather
than OF competition will not inconvenience the
business OF the country and will provide an i'm
mediately available source of supply for the rail-
roads of France, whose equipment is wearing out.
The proposal is seriously made by man who
stands high as an authority in transportation cir
eles and as such will be given its due weight in
the final disposition Of the problem. A more
practical contribution to the cause scarcely could
be made.
