COLLEGE HIPPODROMING.
Th Show BulnM Carried to Tw
treme by Entvrnlty Stndnit.
There is a sentiment rapidly spread
ing and taklnsr root in the minds of the
alumni of the different un versr '"s of
this country antagonistic to tin -ces-sive
amount of slimv business in hich
the students of American inst tit ions
of learning are permitted to indulge.
The feeling, says the Ilullalo Commer
cial, is crowing that the only legitimate
field for the exercise and e.vhib tioc of
the physical, intellectual and musical
accomplishments of these young men is
to be fonnd in the university athletic
grounds, the university theaters and
society halls. In other words, the
alumni and a large body of thoughtful
people not directly connected with ;1e
various scats of learning are iMtr.'.Li.- to
an agreement that the college youth is
altogether too much inevidenot lutsnie
vf the college yards, either ior his ov, n
good or the legitimate prestige of his
particular alma mater.
Of course, the conditions under which
the rowing matches are held make the
selection on a somewhat retired and
neutral course like that at 2scw London
fit and Droncr: bat the football, like
the baseball matches, should be con
lined to college grounds, with the
avowed intention of reducing the num
ber and improving the character of the
spectators, reducing the expenses and
minimising the publicity and bpeeiacu
lar features of the cempctitions.
Another desirable result of this policy
would be the elimination of meet of the
gambling and very demoralizing sport
ing" elements that inevitable gather
around events I'ike the great football
matches that fill the columns of the
newspapers for several weeks every
autumn. Certainly the students them
selves would undergo less excitement
and cuffer less distraction from their
legitimate college work if the scale on
which their athletic rivalries are tested
were effectively reduced. When these
rivalries become matters of national
concern they naturally tend to become
dangerouslv intense and injurious to
health and morals.
We think this policy of restraint
should also be applied to the practice
that has now become universal among
the colleges of sending out troupes of
young men organized as glee, banjo
and mandolin elubs to give public per
formances for money in the leading
cities during the holiday recess. These
lads travel about the country in special
cars, give ten or fifteen concerts in pub
lic balls and undergo a succession of
'social attentions calculated to im
pair the constitutions of seasoned men,
to say nothing of immature youths who
are supposed to be resting and recuper
ating from the strain of three months
of hard work at their lessons and lec
tures. Essentially their performances
are not to be distinguished from the
professional shows, and when they be
come an annual affair they are as tire
some as they are surely a tax on the
good nature of the local alumni, be
sides being an unwholesome experience
to those who take part in them.
We have heard that the authorities
at Harvard have served notice to the
glee and banjo clubs of that university
that their present tour is to be the last
one. It is to be hoped that the report
is well founded, and that the example
will be followed elsewhere, as it de
serves to be. Let the college youth at
tend their eo'deges and be required to
attvnd more exclusively to their regu
lar college business.
COUNTING OF THE VOTES.
In Kecent Election There II a. Been Lit
tle Fraud In New York.
The counting of votes has been in
the past more fruitful of trickery aiH
falsification than any other part of
.he election process. In l'sOS the car -assers
in certain districts reduced the
natter to iu lowest terms by simply
-eportinsr a unanimous vot- on the:r
ide. and then goiiiy out to fling up their
hati for the rest of the nipht. In th
?ub:quent election competent r.nd ir
corruptible men supervised tfa canvass
so strictly that the percentage uf fraud
was so small, if nny existed, as never to
be heard of. This watching; says a
writer in Century, at the coun' not only
prevented intentipnal lyinir, but save 1
accidental mistakes. In onu case th
board of iiusjiectors confessed they did
not kuow how to count the votes, and
submitted entirely to the guidance of
ii well-informed watcher.
The counting in done in public, and
it, often an interesting sight. Every or
ganization and each, candidate may
h;nd a representative to obf-erve i
though nobody but the inspectors s
permitted to touch the ballots. The
straight tickets art- first counted n tenv
by four men in f ucceaaion, and a tally
is kept by at least two assistants. Each
name in credited with as many votes
as there are ticket for his side. Then
one inspector rends off of thoe tickets
which are '"split," or have poatvrs at
tached, or upon which names have been
rased or new nam' written, and each
candidate In credited with a vote every
time his name tt' -.ears. When this is
finished the most prominent office is
taken up, and the sum of the voteu for
each candidate is ascertained.
