A LIVELY TIME
AT TEE WEEKLY ELECTION ON FRIDAY.
It Developed into a Bete-Phi Fal Fight
Simpson Wen but his Election Will
Fe Contested on the Ground
That He Wes Not Regularly
Noninimated.
Contrary to all expectation, the WEEKLY election Friday was not at all a quiet one. Until Friday, Mr. W. B. Graham was the only candidate for the office of editor-in-chief. But on the morning of the election it was reported that Mr. Graham had pledged himself to the Phi Psis. Graham himself would not state whether such was the case or not, and so Mr. Simpson, a Ieta, was put up as a dark horse and was elected by a vote of 65 to 54.
Fight for Collars.
The supporters of Graham maintain that Simpson cannot legally take the office since the constitution of the WEEKLY states explicitly that the nomination, signed by ten shareholders, must be handed to the advisory board at least one week before the election takes place. The Simpson supporters say that Graham cannot accept the office, because his nomination was not signed by ten stockholders, but that ten names were affixed to his nomination by one or two men. They site in favor of making this election legal; the instance that Mr. Frank Swett was elected in a similar manner, and that he held his place on the board and served throughout the whole term.
There was a lively time at the ballot box. Every vote that was in doubt was challenged.
The matter of declaring the election legal or illegal devolved upon the advisory board, and they referred it to the University Council which has thus far taken no action.
It is the general opinion that there will be another election, as there was a few years ago when the list of shares was stolen.
Many of the stockholders declare that if Si mpson is thrown out and Graham is declared elected, they will circulate a petition for another election.
There was quite a lively time at Washburn last week over some collars.
The Sq. his mores sent out a man with instructions to purchase the "loudest and highest collars that could be found in the city of Topeka." They intended to wear them to chapel on Friday morning. The collars were duly procured and secreted, but a Freshman with his proverbal inquisitiveness found out their plans and took their collars. They were distributed among the Freshmen who wore them to chapel on the day that the Sophomores had planned to make a hit. The disappointed ones bore their discomfiture in silence during chapel, but when the exercises were over, trouble began.
In due course of time the Sophomores regained their collars and colors, but not until after one man had had a finger broken and another had been knocked senseless.
The last issue of this journal contained an account of the University Geological Survey, but for some reason nothing was said about a very important part of it, the department of Paleontology. Up to the present time this department has published one volume, Vol IV, and has another which will be ready to go to the printer before the beginning of the next fiscal year. In addition to this it has published many other papers in the University Quarterly and elsewhere and has also contributed quite a little toward volumes I and II, of this survey. The work has always been of the highest quality. Dr. Williston having received many letters of commendation from paleontologists from all over the world.
The Geological Survey.
From George W. Bain, Kentucky's brilliant orator! "I consider 'The Reign of the Demagogue,' by John Temple Graves, the finest oration in the language."
Robt. Irving Fulton, Dean Ohio Wesleyan School of Oratory says: "I would rather have my students take John Temple Graves as a model than any orator I know."
Made in Germany.
The question is frequently asked why some of our students in certain lines of technical work, especially in chemistry, feel obliged to go to Germany to complete their education. Is it not just as practical to complete their course in a school or manufactory in this country or in England as to go to a land where the language and the customs are so foreign to our own? A glance at a few facts that have come out in a recent article by Dr Fisher may aid in answering the question. Throughout Germany, not including Austria, there are about 200 men who devoted their lives to the purely scientific study, while there are more than 4,200 who are occupied with the technical applications of art. This it dustry has been developed in the last 150 years, and in fact only a little more than a hundred years ago chemical technology was first introduced into the University at Göttingen place in all the higher institutions Some idea may be formed of the development of chemical industries when we consider that the great color works on Bayer & Co., at Eiffelterbun in 1884 employed fifteen chemists and 50 workmen while today they employ 10 chemists and 2644 workmen. The science must be first studied as a science, then the student is in a position to apply his knowledge to the numerous industries in which it is a factor. The broader his knowledge the better he will be able to devise economical manufacture re on a large scale, and so utilize the by product that there may be a margin of profit. He will work up raw material, and uses for his products, and devise the best possible machinery to do the work. The Germans with their proverbial industry and patience have met these conditions better than any other people, till today they supply the markets of the world with reliable products, so that "Made in Germany" is almost necessary a trade mark for many classes of chemicals. Is it any wonder that our students are impressed with the phenomena success of the Germans in this particular and that they flock to that land to learn the secret of how it is done?

From Col. L.F. Copeland.

"I beard John Temple Graves in his matchless oration, 'The Reign of the Demagogue,' at the Kentucky State Chataqua, July 7. I have listened to nearly every great speaker of two conti- nents, but never in my life did I listen to any deliverance from the platform so thoroughly pungent in thought, so scholar- lly in dictation, so elegant and classical in composition, so matchless in eloquence as 'The Reign of the Demagogue,' by John Temple Graves. Every Living American should hear it. It is beyond all praise.
"Yours, L. F. COPELAND."
Dr. Chas Fester Smith, Professor of Greek, Wisconsin University, says about John Temple Graves: "No speaker of the nineteenth century, within my observation more nearly resembles the Greek Demosthenes in method of expression and in inspiration of delivery than John Temple Graves, of Georgia."
President J. P. D. John, of De Pauw University, Indiana, says: "John Temple Graves' lectures are expressions of marvellous eloquence and are brimful of fundamental truth. All young men should hear him."
