CONSTITUTION Recognizing the necessity of a college paper which shall be devoted to the best interests of all the students of the University of Kansas, and which shall represent all parties, we do hereby organize ourselves into a stock company for the purpose of publishing such journal, and do adopt for our government the following Constitution and By-Laws: ARTICLE I. SECTION 1. The name of this organization shall be the "COURIER COMPANY," and its motto shall be "Non nobis solum." ARTICLE II. Sec. 2. The name of the journal published by this company shall be "The Weekly University Cochier." Sec. 3. This paper shall be published weekly, and its departments shall be as follows: Editorial, with one editor; Local, with two editors; Personal, with three editors; Views, with one editor; Exchange, with one editor, and advertisements with two business managers. SECTION 1. The capital of this company shall consist of eighty shares of $2.50 each. Sec 3. One vote may be cast for each share of stock, and there shall be no voting by proxy. Sec. 2. No shares shall be held by persons not active members of the University of Kansas, nor shall any person hold more than two shares. Sec 4. The total number of shores held by persons belonging to college secret societies shall not exceed forty, and but forty shares may be held by non-secret society students. Sec. 5. The two secret societies having the largest amount of stock shall make their number of shares equal upon demand of either, notice of which shall be given to the company. Sec. 6. Stockholders joining college secret societies shall sell their stock, otherwise it shall revert without compensation to the company, and they shall forfeit any position they may hold. Sec. 7. Students who leave the University for a longer period than six months shall sell their stock to active students, otherwise it shall revert to the company at par value. SEG. 8. All sales and transfers of stock must be reported to the company, and be recorded by the secretary, in order to be valid. Sec. 9, No secret society shall have more than two editors. ARTICLE III. SECTION 1. The officers of this company shall be a president, a secretary and treasurer, and a journal staff. Sec. 2. The president shall preside at all meetings of the company, shall decide points of order, shall call special meetings at the request of the holders of celven shares, or whenever a vacancy in office occurs, and shall perform all other customary duties of chairman. SEC. 3. It shall be the duty or the secretary to record all proceedings of the company; to call the roll; to read the minutes; to read all the reports of officers; to receive notice of all transfer of stock, and to record them and all reversions in a book, provided no transfers shall be recorded which violates any section of this constitution; to give the business managers notice of all reversions; to receive notice of equalization from the secret societies; to decide the validity of all sales, transfers and reversions, and act as treasurer, and to perform such other duties as the office may require. SEC. 4. The journal staff shall consist of eight editors and two business managers. SEC. 5. Each editor shall have supervision over the department to which he is elected, and shall carefully prepare articles for the same. SEC. 7.

The votes of one-half the shares sold shall constitute a quorum. 3. The journal staff shall meet on the day of election, and choose one of the business managers to be managing editor. 4. The managing editor shall assign departments and space, and shall supervise copy. Should a person attend Kansas University and then go to an eastern college, or if after having been to an eastern college one should identify himself with Kansas University, he would notice the difference in class spirit. 5. The net profits shall be paid to the business managers. 6. Roberts' Rules of Order shall be authority on all points of order not herein specified. An ideal class in the Kansas University organizes in the S. P. year, has a dance in the Freshman, lies dormant in the Sophomore and squabbles for office in the Junior and Senior years. In most eastern colleges they have their cane rushes, their class base ball and foot ball clubs, their numerous class parties and all things which tend to make one loyal to his class. We are told that this spirit once existed to a certain extent in this University. What is the reason it can not be revived? Some one has hinted that at the next meeting of '87 the question of wearing mortar boards will come up. Fortune favor you, '87, and may each class follow in its turn, the example set by you. So let each one wake up, stir around and see if we can't get some life into our school. Let us get out of this stupor we have fallen into during the last three or four years Revised Sept. 19, 1885. E. L. ACKLEY, 3084 F. T. OAKLEY, One thing the University lacks, is a slogan, and surely we western fellows, with our cow-boy lungs, ought to be able to get up something in this line. This, together with the songs suggested in the late issue of the Courier, would tend to bring the students together more, and instead of a howling mob we would have a happy and jolly crowd at all gatherings of the students. When we celebrated the $50,-000 appropriation last spring we sung such old worn out things as "John Brown's Body," "Marching Through Georgia," "Roll, Jordan, Roll," and others that have been buried and resurrected a half dozen times. See advertisement of J. L. Berkey Secretary. Can we not get up something new, something original? Let one one think up a good slogan, compose an easy song or two to some popular air, and the next time we come together we can adopt them as property of the K. S. U. We have had lots of exercise this summer, and ought to be able to make some noise. Who'll speak first? EDITOR VIEWS:—A short editorial in the University Review, on account of its unfairness, calls for some open expression of the censure it will doubtless receive from those who read it with any care. K. S. U. is a coeducational institution, and has a faculty of twenty-four professors and assistants. Out of this state of things show a spirit of favoritism? Is it strange, since one-half the students are young women, that it seems proper to have one woman among the instructors, and would it not be well to remember before calling too loudly for justice, that women were not allowed to compete for the other positions? Finally, is this not a most discourteous welcome to the lady chosen to fill the place, and is not such discourtesy entirely new in University history? RAILROAD TIME TABLES.
