Why is it that the more a man is complimented,the less he becomes satisfied with himself.
Bargains in odd Pants at Craines and Urbansky, the Boston Square Dealig clothiers.
THE University of Nebraska will employ a coach for their foot ball team next fall.
THE "Contest Number" of the Argo-Reporter was gotten up in good shape. We extend congratulations.
We hope that the Missouri State University will be successful in securing a good appropriation for their new buildings.
Some little college out in the western part of the state has plagiarized a portion of our yell. Trespassers take notice.
WHEN you see the legend, Your Subscription is Due" inscribed on your Courier, don't imagine that it refers to somebody else. It means you.
A STATE contest is very much like a country fair. The finest pn products are put on exhibition in both. Some are immature,however.
EXCHANGE editors should not clip the same item more than once. This remark is called forth after reading the exchange columns of several of our most valued college journals.
IMITATION is always proof of excellence. Iowa College, University of Wisconsin, University of Minnesota, and Northwestern University are discussing the formation of a foot ball league, now that the Inter-state University league has been formed.—S. U. I. Quill.
GRAVE charges are being made that the markings of the judges on thought and composition were tampered with. We are loath to believe that the charges have any foundation but if they should prove true the guilty parties should be severely dealt with. The contests must be free from such disreputable practices.
GARFIELD University, located at Wichita, has passed into the hands of Mr. Edgar Harding of Boston, who will endow it, and open it in time for the fall term. Mr. Harding is very wealthy, and it is his intention to change it to a college and make it one of the foremost in the land. The main building, which is almost completed, cost $250,000.
"Cook fairly won first place and ought to have had justice. But who ever knew C. of E. to get her just reward in a state contest?" Perhaps our Presbyterian friends can find solace in this passage, which is taken from Challiss' oration. "* * * as long as wrong is triumphant and right is crushed by power as cruel and relentless as the grave; there can be and by all the prayers and tears of down-trodden humanity, there shall be no content."

ANOTHER GOOD FRIEND.
C. E. Edwords, who is doing so much to advertise our University in the able series of articles of the past few months in the Sunday edition of the Kansas City Journal deserves and is receiving the commendations of all friends of K. S. U. Mr. Edwords as one of the associate editors of the Kansas City Journal for the past decade is one of the ablest and best known journalists of the west.
The series of special articles on the different departments of the University he is writing are being widely copied and extensively commented upon, very much to the profit of our institution. Most of them are well illustrated by the artist of the Journal and if Mr. Edwords follows to completion the plan he seems to have mapped out the series will be one of the finest ever written upon any educational institution in the country.
K. S. U. owes a great debt of gratitude to Noble Prentis, Alex Butts, J. A. Graham and other warm friends of the journalistic fraternity and it is happy to add to the list Mr.C.E. Edwords and assure him of its most sincere gratitude for services rendered as one of its distinguished benefactors.
THE LAST BLAST.
The horn is no more. The executive committee of the State Oratorical association very wisely took action on the horn nuisance. After carefully considering the matter it was unanimously decided that the practice should be severely condemned and in all future contests an effort will be made to suppress it. This is a move in the right direction. All the previous contest were bad enough but the last capped the climax. The senseless noise and uproar at times became almost unbearable, and then a blast on a horn signifies nothing. Every college in the association should depend upon their yell. Let us say right here, that never has a K. U. student been guilty of taking a horn to a contest. K. U. has always relied upon 'Rock, Chalk,' and there never has been a time when we have not been heard. The following are the resolutions as adopted: Whereas the use of horns and other instruments in the hands of students of the various institutions represented in the State Oratorical association has become an extreme disgrace and is worthy of the severest censure. Therefore be it.
Resolved, That it is the unanimous verdict of this convention that the various local associations use their best endeavors to prevent such means of cheering by their students at future contests of this association. Second, that these resolutions be spread upon the minutes of the association, and a copy be sent to each local association and be published in the local college journals of the schools represented in this association.

COLLEGE MEN IN POLITICS.
Some one has sarcastically referred to the "young crowd" as a University extension movement. The Leavenworth Times publishes this very sensible editorial in reply: 'It has been suggested that the so-called 'young crowd' in Kansas might properly be called 'The University extension,' meaning of course that the men who are coming to the fore in political life are largely graduates of the University at Lawrence. There is more truth in this than opponents of the young crowd would care to admit, meaning as it does the elevation of 'practical politics' to the plain of respectability, and a general purification of our political system. The old theory that the scholar is unfitted for the affairs of state or the management of political campaigns, is being rapidly exploded, not only in Kansas, but throughout the entire country, and each succeeding year brings forward a large number of cultured men who become prominent in politics. It may have been true, at one time, that men of this class held themselves aloof from political strife because of the corrupt methods employed, but that time has passed and they are now going into the thick of the fight. The result must be apparent to all observing persons. The offices will not only be filled by a better class of men, but campaign will be conducted upon a higher and better principle. The entrance of the college graduates into the field of actual political life is a hopeful sign for our system of government and must be gratifying to every patriotic American. When men of fine attamments and pure principles no longer stand aside and bewail the supremacy of ignorance and corruption, but industriously set about to overthrow existing'methods, it is time for all good citizens to rejoice. That time has arrived and evidence of it becomes every day more and more apparent especially in our state. The scholar has come to stay."—Topeka Lance.
THE College Life passed a very uncalled for criticism on Mr. Challiss. But as Mr. V. C. Cook was Emporia's orator and as Mr. V. C. Cook is editor of the Life such a stab is not to be wondered at. When you are defeated, bear it like a man and don't become soured on the whole world.
The young orator at the Grand last night did not reach the heights of eloquence that marked the Kansas Day banquet, but perhaps they will by the time they are old enough to join the “young crowd”—Topeka Capital. ___
Our Rock Chalk, Jay Hawk, K. U. was heard above the din of a thousand horns and three cow bells.
'HAS oratory a place in a university,' is a question that is undergoing some discussion in the college press. ___
