Show II For sonio tlmo Truth hns boon I keeping In touch with affairs of tho I Agricultural College, and Is fairly well B postotl on tho conditions existing. I Illthorto tills papor has taken but very i Httlo hand In tho controversy of whlc'.i M President Kerr Is thu head and front, ' but now tho tlmo has como whoh Truth thinks tho ponplo should bo Informed In-formed of conditions as they nctunlly oxlst, and In this Issue considerable space Is dovoted to tho. subject. Tho conclusion of tho wholo niattor Is that President Korr should resign, and if ho won't do that ho ought to bo ro moved and a man who would conduct the Institution as an AGRICULTURAL collego appointed In his place. Tho state supports tho collego for tho purpose pur-pose of advancing tho agricultural interests in-terests of tho state goenrally (an exceedingly ex-ceedingly important thing), not to usurp tho functions of tho university. President Korr, moreover, seems to bo too copiously imbued with the idea of his own Importance and wants to run things too much on the pan of tho czar of all tho Ilussias. Truth Is In a position to substantiate all lt.3 statements state-ments on this matter. Tho public can not get tho facts from tho dally papers of Salt Lako City, and with tho Logan papers tlioy don't fare any bettor. The main object of the Salt Lako dallies, it is well known, is to deceive tho people and publish anything and everything but tho facts, but bettor things wore expected fiom the Logan papers. Charlie Greene, red headed, good natural and essontialy cultured Charlio Grcono of Omaha, which is in tho slato of Nebraska, stands a good show of being appointed judge of tho Circuit court of tho Eighth Judicial circuit of tho United States of America, Amer-ica, to 1111 tho vacancy caused by tho death of Judge Thayer. We hope .':o wins. lie is a good man. Ho Is learned in tho law and lias a well balanced mind. His temperament is of such a nature that ho could deal out justice with mercy and not require tho services of a strainer. Ho understands tho constitution consti-tution of tho United States; none better. bet-ter. Ho is a deep thinker and a forcl-blo forcl-blo and logical speaker. Tho president presi-dent can hunt all over tho district and not find a bettor man that Charles J. Greene. Tho Tribune stated editorially tho other day that neither of our two United States senators or tho congressman con-gressman had either attended tho G. A. R. encampment at Ogdon or sent any message. This Is falso and malicious. ma-licious. Senator Smoot, wo know, sent a long, felicitious and patriotic mes-sago mes-sago to tho old soldiers which was read and appreciated. Wo boliovo tho other members of Utah's congressional congres-sional delegation also sent messages of cheer and congratulation. Tho Tribune, of course, followed its usual plan of misrepresenting those who will not bow the knee to it and its owner.'" A venerable chap ho must bo venerable ven-erable named J. G. Lumbard, who lives in Omaha, wants to abolish tho funny columns in tho papers because tlicy do not suit him; because no "lessons" aro derived from tho scintillations scin-tillations of tho minds of tho men who strivo to wrlto good, funny jokes. What a wonderful mess of dyspepsia that man must havo. Ho is ovidontly out of sorts In moro ways than one. Ho should chaugo his namo to Lumbago. Lum-bago. It now develops that tho only man who caught any llsh during the recent trip to Los Angeles was Caller Jones, of tho stock exchange, who claims to lnvo landed two tunas weighing steen pounds apiece. Ills ilrst thought was to havo them mounted, but a short tlmo afterward ho exclaimed: "What's tho use; I can tell them about It just as well." As wo read of tho "wars" between university "sophs," "preps" and others wo cannot refrain from declaring that things are not as they used to bo and wo aro willing to wager that had such affairs happened in our own boyhood days someono would have had tho tar walloped out of him by tho schoolmaster school-master who permitted no such foolishness. foolish-ness. Rojestvensky Is reported as desiring desir-ing a recall, owing to tho fact that he is suffering from a complication ot diseases. It is safe to bet that heart failure is chief among tho complaints. Incidentally wo arise to ask if any one hns recently had a letter from the lato 13rigadler-Genoral, John Q. Cannon? |
