Report of the Faculty Referees in the Matter of Disputed Shares in the University Oratorical Association.
LAWRENCE, KANS., Feb. 1, 1889. The taking of evidence having closed, the referees met, and after due deliberation render the following decision:
Without action of the referees, the following shares having been originally admitted as undisputed by both parties hereto, stand in status quo as far as these proceedings are concerned. and the title to them as vested in the parties whose names appear therewith:
No. 1, Charles Johnson; No. 2, J.
C. Fox; No. 3, F. E. Reed; No. 4, Jos.
Shellabarger; No. 6, Edgar Martin-
dale; No. 9, R. D. Brown; No. 10, V.
L. Kellogg; No. 11, Frank Craig; No.
12, C. E. Street; No. 13, Will Snow.
No. 15, H. F. M. Bear; No. 16, H. F.
Roberts; No. 17 F. W. Butler; No.
19, J. M. Challiss; No. 20, Mark Otis;
No. 21, L. D. DeCamp; No. 24, H.
W. Montgomery; No. 25, W. E.
Swank.
II. The evidence submitted seems to the referees to show that shares in the Oratorical Association have not been generally regarded in the light of property, valuable in and for itself, but in the light of certificates to be held as conditions precedent to voting at meetings of the Association.
The referees further deem that consciously or unconsciously, article 1, section 3, of the constitution of the Association has been generally taken by the Association to mean stud-nts actually in attendance at the University at the time of an election or other meeting of the Asociation in which a ballot might take place. The referees deem this view to be corroborated by section 5, of the bylaws, which prohibits voting by p oxy; thus showing that it was contemplated that the holder of a share must be on the ground or forfeit his vote.
The referees have found no evidence to the contrary of this, except that derived from shares now in dispute; nor do they think the claim that objection was not earlier made to this construction of the constitution owing to the impossibility of influencing the action of the controlling party, sufficient to outweight this lack of evidence.
The referees therefore decide that in all cases of shares of stock nominally held by non-resident owners but transferred or re-issued by the proper officers to new share-holders, the new share-holders shall be recognized as having the right to vote.
III. In accordance with this decision the referees decide that the title to the following shares is in the persons whose names appear therewith;
IV. In the case of share No. 7 the evidence as to the transfer from Bennett to Gilmore was so conflicting that the referees accepted the hitherto indisputed record of transfers, and under the ruling of section 2 of this
report declare the title to be in J. A.
Mushrush.
No. 5, D. E. Esterly; No. 23, E. S.
Smith.
V. In the case of share No. 8 the referees are of the opinion that the evidence makes it clear that Neal used reasonable promptness and care to secure the transfer of this share through V. L. Kellogg to such person as he preferred; but that the failure to press the transfer and the subsequent neglect of the share must place it under the ruling of section 2 of this report. They herefore decide that share No. 8 stands as appears by the books of the Association, in W. A. White.
VI. In the case of share No. 14 the referees decide that the title is in L. P. Hill.
VII. In the case of share Fo. 18 the referees decide that the title is in Denton Hogeboom.
VIII. In the case of share No. 22 it appears to the referees that the ownership of that share was in F. G. Crowell till the time of his graduation, June, 1888; that he took all reasonable care to have the share properly and seasonably transferred; and that the title of share 22 is now in Bert Smith.
IX. In the election which is now to be held, therefore, the following persons are authorized to vote:
No. 1, Charles Johnson; No. 2, J. C. Fox; No. 3,F. E. Reed; No. 4, Jos Shellbarger; No. 5, D. E. Esterley No. 6, Edgar Martindale; No. 7, J. A Mushrush; No. 8, W. A. White; No. 9, R.D.Brown; No. 10, V. L.Kellogg; No. 11, Frank Craig; No. 12,C.E Street; No. 13, Will Snow; No. 14 L.P.Hill; No. 15, H.F.M. Bear Vo. 16, H.F.Roberts; No. 17,F.W Butler; No. 18, Denton Hogeboom; No. 19, J.M.Challis; No. 20, Mark Otis; No. 21, L.D. DeCamp; No. 22 Bert Smith; No. 23, E.S. Smith; No. 24, Hi. Montgomery; No. 25, W.E Swank. ARTHUR R. MARSH,
It will be seen by section 5 of the above report that the awarding of share No. 8 to Mr. White was probably through a mistake as it reads as if Mr. Brewster's name was intended. The intention of the committee will be determined.
We can do more good to the paper and to the University than a staff composed of "frats" only, for the weight of a society does not hamper us and restrict our freedom of expression. Since each one of us is an individual whose manner of thinking is not methodized by any fraternity, clique or clan, each one can give expression only to original thought. That originality is a source of vigor and a means of improvement more
JUDGING from some remarks recently dropped, one would suppose that a "barb" can not be associate editor on a Phi Psi paper unless he submit himself to the dictation of the fraternity. We acknowledge that every one has a right to private opinion. But since we have been severely criticised for assenting to serve and allow the Phi Psis to "domineer" over us, it is necessary to define our position.
The diversity of our tastes give a range to the COURIER wider than her range could be if defined by any single class of students.
effectual than any other is not easily denied.
We are told that the "frats" have no sympathy for the "barbs;" that they will reject every production that bears evidence of coming from a "barb;" that they recognize no merit or capacity in any one who is not identified with themselves, and that they elect us merely for the purpose of rushing us or those whom we may influence, and that they may have a popular paper.
Very well, how shall we overcome the animosity which the aristocratic and orthodox "frat" may exhibit towards the "harb?" Can we do so by refusing to work for the interest of K. S. U?. By manifesting a malice toward them when they offer to compromise and allow the whole University to be represented?
If they will reject "barb" productions, why do they ssk to represent the "barbs?" Can you answer yourself satisfia ctorily? How can they recognize merit in a "barb" if he persistently refuses to show it?
And what a novel method of "rushing!" Grant a "barb" a privilege in hopes that he will bind himself to secure those things which they extend to him voluntarily!
We admit that the supporters of the Courier are working nobly to secure a popular paper. Of course this is wrong (? ) and our esteem ed contemporaries do no such base deeds.(?) Excellency may be a specialty, and peculiar to publications which are not popular, but our rivals do not produce the essential instance.
