STUDENTS CLING TO CONSERVATION
ADHERE TO THAT WING OF REPUBLICAN PARTY.
Figures Compiled by Prof. C. A Dykstra Show Surprising Facts About Students' Politics.
Standpat, conservative Republicanism seems to be the political attitude of the students of the University of Kansas, if figures compiled by Professor C. A. Dykstra from the statements of members of his classes in American government may be taken as representative of the political beliefs of the student body as a whole.
Fifty students submitted papers stating their choice of political parties, and giving three fundamental reasons for their choice.
Of these, thirty-five were Republicans, ten Democrats, and four preferred the Socialist party Among the Republicans, thirty three accepted this party because their fathers belonged to it. A high protective tariff was favored by twenty-five, and a considerable number favored the acquisition of more territory.
Six of the ten democrates had inherited their political tendencies. All agreed in demanding tariff reform, limiting monopolies, and anti-imperialism. A number favored states rights.
The accepted views of socialism were all endorsed by the Socialist members of the class.
There were no Prohibitionists.
There were no Prometheusists. "I have found by many similar tests," said Professor Dykstra "that heredity plays by far the most important part in determining a man's political beliefs. If it appears strange than conservation is prevalent at Kansas University situated in a progressively inclined state, we must remember that universities foster a conservative spirit, and that even during the revolutionary war, the majority of students at Harvard University were Torces."
MAKE SUCCESSFUL RUN
Foundry Proven a Success by Monday's Work.
The first successful run of metal from the cupola furnace was made Monday afternoon. With the installation of the cupola the practical work of the engineers is increased. In the course of shop work, they made the patterns, in another, castings are made from these patterns, and in yet another, the castings are machined and finished.
To begin the process of making a "melt," about 500 pounds of coke are placed in the cupola, the pig iron is put in on top of that then about fifty pounds more of coke, and a fire started at the bottom. When the coke on top begins to glow, the operator knows that the iron has been heated through, then the blower is turned on and the whole heated to a high temperature. When hot enough, the metal is drawn off and poured into the moulds.
