 We want to answer Enola's writer m regard to cotton and Harding He wants to know what we based our hopes upon in the last election We based them on the shape that things were in before the election. We have come to the conclusion that the Enola writer didn't keep very well posted on the nations affairs or he would have known what to have based his hopes upon. My friend, what did you base your hopes upon in 1912, when only two years later cotton was only $ and cents? And. brother, do you actually think that Wilson was the cause of last years high priced cot know it was because
 He kept us out of war,
 He kept us out of peace,
 He kept us out of sugar,
 And all things to eat. Look back into your history eff you have one, and if you haven't we will loan you one) and see under whose administration cotton was the highest and lowest Though we don't expect anything else, the shape things are left in. but that it vii take the nations wiest men several years to get things strengthened out. And we vii also ask you not to dodge the question or quibble with your answer. We are sure things will look brighter when Harding takes his seat.

MAJORITY TO RULE
 ATHLETIC COUNCIL
ALL WRITE REGULATION
Tentative Rules Being Submitted Col leges for Changes-Socond
 Meeting to Follow.

The majority rule will be strictly
 observed in the formation of the new
 intercollegiate athletic conference in
 Arkansas. in accordance with the ac-
 ton taken at the preliminary meeting
 Tuesday at Little Rock. Delegates $ attending that gathering voted upon
 part of the constitution and by
 laws. but did not have time to com-
 plcte them II. l.. McAlister of the
 state Normal. secretary of the body,
 was instructed to proceed with com
 pletion of regulations and submit
 them to member colleges for changes or approval. Before the meeting ad-
 lourned, President E. w. Torreyson of the Normal was instructed to call the second meeting to perfect the or ganization.
 Mir. MeAlister is mailing out to member colleges copies of a proposed constitution and by laws. The copies are accompanied by request for sug- gested changes and for a statement of conditions under which the college will take membership When re- sponses have been had from all, the changes will be submitted to majority vote when the second meeting is held. Another letter sent out is a statement that a college will accept member ship without revision of the confer ence's laws.
 An equal fairness will be shown on the question of summer baseball, which will be submitted to majority vote and the decision accepted with out question The attitude of the new association on this important point will be up for action at the second meeting officials of the State Nor nal said that regardless of the stand the majority may take. it will be ac- ecpted by the Normal, although that school is strongly iE favor of a liberal rule on eligibility.
 The chief point in the government of the new conference will be it's ab- solute separation from high schools, as compared with the dual governing board of the Arkansas Athletic As sociation. An example of the dual SVttNitt NaN @A1@ IT eL the ldll meeting of the association when the State Normal submitted a resolution which if adopted would have allowed collegi- ate athletes 10 participate in summer baseball without loss of eligibility. It did not affect high school athletics in the least However, the resolution went to vote by high school and col lege reples scHtaei,es and was defeated.
 Preliminary details of the organiza- tion require much attention and some time must e'ap-e before the second meeting called. Formulation of the constitution and ay laws will be lasteHed as much as possible SO that members may know what to expect during the baseball season. The lelegatcs at Iit..e Rock decided to go ahead with thc conference if only five colleges joined A' present it seems probably that jt will have a charter of seven, the two hold outs .eing lIeudrN and HendersonBrown.

UNIVERSITY FORUM
COMPARES CREEDS

Christianity, offering the hope OF
immortality. has been of far greater
benefit to mankind than Confucian-
ism, was the opinion of a majority at
an open forum meeting yesterday of
the Agora Society of George Washing
ton University.
The Rev. DIR. William A. Haggerty.
pastor of Wesley Chapel Methodist
Episcopal Church. defined two funda =
mental tendencies of Christianity as
the individualistic tending to divide
men, and the social movement. work
ing for the unity and brotherhood OF
men.
The speaker asserted the average
man inStinctivcly feels himself es-
tranSed from God. Therefore. he said.
Christianity acted as the redeemins
influence. guiding him back to the
Deity.
ConfuCianism was not a religion and
did not recognize intercommunication
between man and God. was the state
ment of Y. c. Yang. of the Chinese
Legation. VIII o spoke on civilization S
benefits from the teachings of Con-
fucius.
If one lives right. everything will
turn out all right" was the way the
speaker summed up the principles OF
Confucfanism. Confucianism attaches
more importance to practical living
than to a real religious interpreta-
ton of truth, Yang said.

President McKinley's S Faith
Eulogized by DR.. Herbert
F. Randolph at Foundry
M. E. Church.

The deep religious faith of William
Mckinley was eulogized by the Rev.
Herbert F. Randolph. d. D., in his
sermon at Foundry NJ. e. Church last
night.
Mckinley was declared by the
sveaker to be one of the strongest
arguments in favor of the Christian
religion"
r'William Mckinley" said DIR. Ran
dolph, was one of the few purely
American Presidents. He was born
on an American farm, and through
his life runs the strain of whole
hearted Americanism. His faith went
with him into the White House.
Lincoln fell as a victim of the in
furiated spirit of the civil war; Gar
field was the sacrifice to disappoint-
ment of personal desires, but Nc
Kinley was killed by the incarnated
lunacy of anarchy. The civilized ma
tions of the world were astounded
beyond utterance when Mckinley was
known to have been killed"
DR.. Randolph called attention to
the rigid honesty with which McKin-
ley pursued his duties as a lawyer,
politician. Congressman. super states
man and President.
Mckinley was the product of good
old Scotch ancestors" DIR. Randolph
said. "Genealogists have discovered
that in the long ago an ancestor of
Mckinley was the first king of Ire
land, many years before St Patrick
came to Christianize the island.
NO man has exemplified greater
devotion to IN other and wife than Nc
Einley. The story of the relationship
between this great man and his wife

in McKinley's glorious book of life.

words when he was assassinated. lie

death. Let no man hurt him. he
whispered.

gentleness of character"

Would Americanize
Foreign Born With Books

A movement to create better citizen
ship among the 1900 ooD foreign born
in the United States who depend upon
the foreign press for enlightment by
bringing good books into the distant
hamlet and the back streets of crowd
ed cities has been entered upon by the
American Library Association.
If the proper books do not exist in
sufficient numbers the association will
seek TO bring the publisher and trans
lator together in order that existing
needs may be met. The association is
working on the theory that the wave
of unrest is due in large measure to
lack of a proper understanding on the
part of the foreign born and that a
solution of the problem will be found
in hooks which breathe the spirit of
American ideals and traditions.
To carry out its plans the association
will need 5000. 900. The money will be
raised through the individual efforts
of the 1900 Librarians who constitute
the association membership.
