red today by a controversy that has
arisen between DR.. z. a. Birge, pres
ldent OF the institution, and William
Jennings Bryan.
Bryan's charge that DR.. Birge is
fostering the teaching OF atheism and
ridiculing belief IN God and the di-
vinity Of Christ, drew a hot retort
from the university head.
Bryan is crazy" said DIT. Birge.
He is seeking notoriety and I refuse
20 engage in a newspaper argument
with him. No one pays any atten-
ton 70 what Bryan says, anyhow"
In a recent lecture at Monroe,
Bryan is quoted as declaring that
Pres't Birgo is making a joke out of
the religious convictions Of the faith
ers and mothers OF students at the
university.

and science, Bryan declared. under

county contributed $1,144 on the 18th,
on which date Posey county also do
mated 1882. We might add other
counties to this list. but enough has
been said to show that the farmers of
Indiana are contributing literally of
the siuews of war. and it seems that
the money is being found useful.
1t has been intimated that if the
various counties are inclined to ad-
vance the annual dues to SO in 1ndi-
ana next year, to keep pace with
Ohio, there will be no objection. But
little has been said on this subject,
however, and as the annual meeting
of the state executive committee viii,
not be held until next November, the
farmer has no cause to fret over what
the committee may or may not recon-
mend at that time. The matter OF
the amount to be paid per member to
the state officials is one thing, and
! the levying of county dues, entirely
! another affair The raise of dues
throughout the state TO the uniform
sum of SIS per year last fall, against
an average of SO, was accepted with

that with SO per year dues very little
