Niaht Editors This luue—Jo Barry Dulcie Lytsell Jesse Foley Come Down To Earth JMjECTIONK arc over. For 1 Lie lust, eoii])le ol’ days the poliliuians of the campus have Oeeil r ii k 1 it g themselves very seriously. There ' have been all night sessions of various fac tions at which many meaning less decisions^ lave been reaelrv’ oil; the College^ Side Jim lias been packed with students— largely sophomores — running from table to table with an air of great secrecy and with whis pered conversations. We all like to ascribe great importance to ot*r actions. Campus politics offers that op portunity. There perhaps is not more than two or three individuals of either of the main political parties concern ed in yesterday’s election whoi do not feel personally respon sible for the success of such of their candidates as were elected. Of course, it was some one rise’s fault if the candi dates lost. The fact that campus poli ticians and would-be politi cians have been taking them selves seriously is not in itself part icularly important. I >ul now the election is over. It is 1 ime to gel hack to earlh. The two rivals for the most impor tant position to he filled prob ably have been those least troubled about the progress of, recent events. It is the strife bet w ecu nr'inbers of this house and that house and the com plcfe lack of balance shown in the thinking of students lie fore and too often after elec tions that is unfortunate. For those who backed the losing candidates and this editorial purposely is being written before election return* are coming in—perhaps it will be some consolation to know that the university is not going to t lie dogs under its new of ficers; that, as a matter of fact, the nature of student offices is such that it doesn’t take a man of very, great ability to fill one. And this, please, is not an as persion on the abilities of either of the two candidates concerned yesterday. The Em erald considers both to be well qualified. Our advice, which like most unasked for advice will be spurned, is “forget it.” A Student Editor Tells the World “YOU' can’t- print that. See ing llint article in n stu dent paper 1he public will take it as the official opinion of the college and we can’t allow that.” 'I'his is the argument that keeps many college papers front printing much of any thing besides colorless lecture notices and club activities. Kuch reasoning Inis also brought the axe down on the head of more than one offend ing editor. Kor this reason the hold face statement printed in large type above the editorial col umn of the llavcrford News, of llavcrford, Pa., is worthy of not ice: " ICditorials in the News do not necessarily represent the opinion of it majority of the undergraduates, faculty and alumni. 'I'hey are designed in stead to arouse intelligent dis mission of stteh llavcrford problems as the News believe.-. merit the consideration of those interested in the college. ('ons I motive commitment tons concerning llaverlord problems or the conduct of this news paper, u hot her favoring or op posing 1 he stand taken b\ this | paper, are welcomed by the editor and will he published on this pa'*."

Woven of the fatuities occurred early yesterday morning in a gang fight between the Betas and Wpee’s over the posting of campaign ma terial in front of the Kappa Koffee house local eating establishment.

Right now 1 am in the Argentine, and am glad to say that I can here purchase your beloved Edgeworth Tobacco, of which I’m so very fond. It is indeed a pity that one can’t find this good smoke in every place of the seven seas. While recently in Germany, my home-country, I tried in vain to come upon one of these little blue tins. I'm not saying too much in mentioning that I would outwalk that famous mile, hunting up dear Edge worth. I dare say there is no other tobacco like it, and am convinced that Edgeworth cannot be improved. Let me know when you contemplate ceasing to make Edgeworth so that I may lay in a goodly store*to last till I'm seventy. May Edgeworth never change!

The "Last Spike” will never # ■: be driven ;| s -*■ ' - i—Southern Pacific still building with the WesL> The 60th anniversary of the driving of the Golden Spike, May 10, Southern Pacific’s Golden Jubilee, finds this western railroad still building. Weaponed with crude tools, courage and vision, the early pioneer had hand-carved a way to the new West. With the vision of the pioneer, the West has carried on, and with it, step by step, Southern Pacific has builded. In the last five years Southern Pacific has built more new line than any other railroad in the United States. In fifteen years Southern Pacific Across the desert—direct to Phoenix has built 1481 miles of new line at a cost of 88 million dollars. Of this, 40 million dollars has been spent in Northern California and Oregon. Through the barrier of the mighty Cascades it has created a new north and south railway. It has double-tracked its Overland Route line over the Sierra. A new main line has been built through Arizona. From Wendel, Califor nia, to Lakeview, Oregon, has been broad-gauged. Now Southern Pacific is com pleting a short line transcontinen tal railway through Southern Ore gon and Northern California. The Cascade line of tire Shasta Route ^ 'l Thru the ' mighty Cascades and the Overland Route will be connected. From less than 700 miles in 1869 to 16,520 miles today is but one way of recording Southern Pacific's 60 years of work. Behind this cold fact of miles built is the epic story of the devel opment of the West. A story of progress indelibly written in the traditions of the West.
