EDITORIAL COMMENT.
The Missouri rooters, says the Missouri correspondent to the Kansas City Star, roundly hissed the Tiger players after Ames had made the first touchdown Saturday and through the remainder of the game jeered and ridiculed them at every opportunity. The Columbia rooters should learn a thing or two from the lusty lunged Kansans, who realize that, as soon as the students who back a team lay down like whipped curs, the team is bound to give up in disgust. The fanciful dreams of the Missouriians are being rudely disturbed. The extravagant Ames pipe was entirely dissolved by the terrible Iowa Aggies. The Kansas pipe seems doomed to the same cruel finish.
Lest any one should conclude from the perusal the Kansan's story on the athletic situation today that the Jayhawker sky is overcast with gloom so thick that not a single ray of light can get through, let him reflect that there is no one so easily raised to the zenith of hope or plunged to the nadir of despair as the "dopester" on a college paper. The flag on Frazer Hall does not fly at half mast, nor do the members of the team even think of giving up and turning in their suits. Cheer up!
The University Missouriian at least serves the excellent purpose of getting the University of Missouri next to the politicians. It is seldom an issue appears without a nice complimentary column devoted to the "sterling honesty" "unswerving loyalty" of some political "friend of the university" who wants an office. It must be convenient to have such an organ to fill that very pressing need of cultivating the politicians.
The unsettled condition of affairs which is said always to accompany a presidential campaign, is very much in evidence on the hill this week. Some of the students have gone home to vote, the rest wear a preoccupied and distraught air, and even some of the professors have the look of weariness that comes from having sat on the platform at a political meeting the night before.
It would be a stimulant for the student body if some real enthusiasm could be worked up for the contest with Washburn next Saturday. To have any real good cheering it will be necessary to have a compactly seated bunch of rooters. There must be a section on the north side of the field set aside for rooters.
Nebraska sent a man to the Ames-Missouri game to take pointers on the Ames team. The Nebraskan, however, was a genuine football enthusiast and became so excited that he forgot to take any notes. All he remembers is that Missouri got beat, but just how he cannot tell.
The Kansan would like to see the interest in a student organization renewed. Before the University of Kansas can ever have such things as a University Union, or dormitories or cooperative enterprises, it must have an organization of the student body.
Miss Nita Abraham, of Kansas City, Mo., will sing Schubert's "The Erl King," in chapel next Friday. Miss Abraham possesses an unusually good voice. She is studying under Prof. C. E. Hubach.

FINAL PLANS ADOPTED.
New Mining Building To Resemble Law Building.
At the meeting of the Board of Regents Friday the final plans for the new mining engineering building were adopted. The building itself will be in two divisions, separated by a space of seven feet and connected by a narrow passage way. The main part will be 62 by 103 feet. Native limestone will be used in the construction and the building will be about the size and have the general appearance of the law building. Some of the special features of the building will be the large lecture room on the second floor which will have a gradual elevation and the fireproof vault in which to keep valuable maps and manuscripts. The geology and mineralogy library will also be situated on the second floor and students in the department can do their reference work in their own building. The museum will take up almost the entire first floor.
While the main section of the building has two stories and a basement the smaller section. 40x80 feet, has only one story Here will be placed all the technical mining machinery and apparatus.
The building will be 125 feet west of the gymnasium. Space is left for another building between the mining and electrical buildings. The miners can go into their new home next September, the contract calling for its completion July 1, 1909.
"The Beginning of the Game of Diabola," and "The Custom Officer's Revenge," at the Lyric this week are par excellent.
