tempt was made to call them, on ac-
count of SO much red tape and foolish
ness. If the soldiers had been brought
to the city at Z O'Clock Sunday eve
ming when first called, the lync'ling
of the negro would have been averted
and the destruction of the court house
prevented. Omaha and Douglas cOun-

restoration OF the two million dollar

shame and disgrace of the most de-

the disappointment expressed by the
people of the city on account of clos

and forcing the travel onto the only
highway available south of the grounds
they might be induced to. cause the
highway to be reir1stated.

It has frequently been remarked by
people coming from the east that the
'best view of Our city can be- obtained
while passing over the highway in
front of the college, We believe if
the school board would submit the
question of closing up the highway to
our people they would find a very
large majority against closing 1t up.
There IS no question but that the best
viewfof Denison can be obtained from
the college hill, and it is too bad
that travellers are deprived of the op-
portunity of seeing Denison from the
best viewpoint. The claim is made
that The highway where 1t passes from
the school grounds to the public high
way is obstructed SO that accidents
are liable to happen. This objection
could be easily overcome by going to
the expense OF excavating a portion of
the earth at this point Our advice
to the school board is to consult the
people of Denison on this question and
to give due consideration to what they
may think about it.
When we read about the riot in
OAAAnAot WalCii OCCuFISu rOuHudytt duu
Sunday evening, we are forced to
reach the conclusion that the world is
growing worse rather than better. We
complain about the exhibition of law
lessness in the south and in other To-
calities where opportunities for ad-
vancement and christianizing influ-
ences do not approach those like COM
mlnfties such as Omaha, and we are.
inclined to excuse such exhibitions
because of race prejudice and other
excuses, but when the most deprayad
exhibition such as occurred in Omaha
takes place. in the northern part of
the country. we are dumbfounded and
absolutely unable to furnish an ex-
plantation. There is a suspicion that
the city overnment in Omaha is not
enforcing the laws as it should and
that the police force did not take hold
of the situation there on Sunday with
proper energy and thereby allowed the
iaWless element to gain control. 1t
seems very strange that with the gov
eminent troops within three or four
miles Of the city, that vigorous steps
were not taken to have the city no
liced by the army. 1t is said that It 4
required four TO five hours to bring
