Sayre bidted for soon question accommodation, be rec the same it that it to the content is native of make part as well in the P.H. G. College World. We cannot agree with a writer in a recent copy of the Hesperus in regard to the discussion of political subjects in college papers. It seems to us to be ridiculous to argue that these articles tend to aid a student to form his opinions. During our entire experience with the college press we have never been able to see a political article that was hardly worth the reading. The same might be said of three-fourths of our newspapers, edited by men whose business it is to think and write about such subjects. And to argue that college students are able to write political articles, which will broaden his personal views and enable him to better form his political opinions, is absurd. We do not except even the editorial is the last Hesperus, relative to the payment of royalties to ditch companies. But yet the Hesperus seems to think that such articles as this "will launch the youth of to-day into the sea of citizenship." We desire to return thanks to the Butler Collegian for giving the Courier such prominence in its last issue, in which the Courier receives three different notices. The Collegian, as well as a number of other exchanges, seems to be well pleased with Prof. Marsh's article on the marking system. The action taken by the faculty of the University of the Pacific in suppressing the Pharos, is only another example of the narrowness of some of our college faculties. As long as the Pharos saw fit to tickle the members of the faculty by taffying them, the Pharos was a model college paper and an honor to the institution, but when the Pharos men became tired of "guying" their faculty any longer, trouble began. We would advise the students of the University of the Pacific to follow the example set by the students of the University of Missouri, that is, to start a subrosa paper, and give vent to their feelings in regard to the matter. The faculty will soon be willing to welcome the old paper back, as was the case in the example just cited. Where under heavens the faculty of any institution obtain the right of dealing so arbitrarily with a college paper is more than we can see, and any body of students that will submit to it cannot possess any great amount of spirit or pluck. The Pharos was one of our brightest exchanges and we earnestly hope that it may resume publication at an early date. We publish the following communication which we received the first of the week: DEAR SIRS:—The faculty of the University of the Pacific, having denied the students the privilege of expressing their opinions on college topics, the Pacific Pharos Publishing Association, believing that a students' organ should be permitted to express, in a respectful manner, the sentiments of the students, have decided to suspend the publication of the Pharos indefinitely. Regretting the necessity of this action, we remain. Yours truly, Is the best place to purchase TEXT :: BOOKS! J S CREW & CO'S PHAROBS PUBLI HING COMPANY. And Students' Supplies. DISCOUNT BEST.

The first of the series of InterFraternity games was played this afternoon between the Phi Psis and the Betas, resulting in a score of 17 to 18 in favor of Phi Kappa Psi. There was a large number present there being a good attendance of ladies. BETA THEta : I. The first seven innings resulted in a tie. The following is the official score of the game: BETA THEFT 1. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Watson...1 * * * * 3 Morris...1 * * * * 3 Rockingham..2 * * * 1 Lippincott...3 * 3 2 * Caw wood...1 1 2 3 Doran...2 1 1 2 Reed...3 2 1 1 Houk...1 * 1 * Smith...2 * 1 2 Total...1 0 3 4 0 6 PHI KAPPA PSL. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Esterley...* 1 1 1 1 1 1 Campbell...* 3 2 2 1 1 Tucker...* 1 * 3 3 2 Prescott...* * 3 3 2 1 Spencer...2 3 3 1 1 Alton...* * 1 1 3 1 Jenkins...* 1 1 2 3 1 Glinnon...1 2 2 3 4 1 Postofflawte...2 3 3 1 1 1 Total...3 1 4 1 1 1 0 Jep Davis acted as umpire. The game progressed without a jar or trouble, though it was closely contested, and the enthusiasm manifest by the audience was extreme. It was especially interesting at the beginning of the last half of the seventh inning when the score stood 11 to 11. At the close of the game the Betas proposed three cheers for the Phi Psis, which was returned by three for the Betas, after which three cheers were given for the ladies present. In the midst of the present athletic excitement, let us not forget that Commencement is approaching, that visitors and friends will then expect to see the University at its best, that as they are pleased or displeased the University will gain or loose, that in order to please them, good hard work is necessary. Too much delaying, too much putting off, will fill our exercises with weak efforts and poor productions. It is high time that Commencement work be taken in hand. In this connection we wish to urge on all students the desirability of entering into the competitive contests. The field is open to all collegiate students and three prizes are offered. This gives all a fair chance. No one can complain for no favor can possibly be shown. These contests have always been one of the pleas-antest features of Commencement week. They furnish also an excellent opportunity to acquire drill and practice in speaking. Don't let your personal pride keep you from competing for one of the prizes. It is no disgrace to be beaten, possibly in the eyes of other judges you might have been the winner. Remember — "Nothing risked, nothing gained." THF WOLRD. s Crackers Nicer For rTea Partv.
