In his letter of acceptance President 3fooseve.lt has made clear his Intentions nnd those nf his party, and there Is no Sxeuso for any one's not knowninc tho. course which tho Republican party has In tile raeos for tho Vanderbilt oup Saturday one automobilist was in stantly killed and another man a millionaire is dying from injuries re ceived. Both victim of too fast and too reekIos driving, or "speed mad ness," as It isjiflw called, says tho Seattle Star. This "speed madnew" is a new form of 'ilemenJtM whlrh motlteal wi- ontlsts litive differentiated, cJassifietl awt applied to people who drive auto mobiles recklessly through crowded streets and highways. It is a form of domentia' with which the public has bome unpleasantly familiar and it is good to have it named. Hut something more than tho tfiere name ought to be contributed by the scientists. "Seientc," once said a sarcastic wit, "consists in giving a known fact a name and pigeon-holing it." If it is not to deserve this definition, sci ence must do more with this well rec ognized form of demontin than morely name it. There is something more in this do meutia than a madness for speed. It affects not only the motorist's reason, but his moral sense. The daily stories of niltomobilists running over and killing or Injuring people nnd then hastening nwny without stopping to inqtiiro its to tho condition of their victims nre not to be accounted for in nny mere infirmity of reason. This blunting of the ordinary feel ings of Immunity must in somo way or other bo connected with tho prac tice of motoring, since the peoplo who own motor curs nro ordinarily persons of some social pretensions nnd ac quainted with the obligations which civilization imposed upon human beings. Out of their automobiles they are snne and have regard for tho lives and limbs of others. That, they should sneak nway after hurting or killing some one indicates unmistakably that driving tin nutomo bllo has a tondency to demoralize In n lnrge proportion of enses. And the proportion is entirely too largo for public safety or comfort. Medical science hns achieved much In evolving tho name of "speed mad ness," bitt the uamo is not broad enough warrantthe school board gr success, and in establishing free'ewing"elnes in the public Behoofs.. The Tclases at present are to be conducted on the tin tioa plan of fifty cents per month for eh child or person.

Fair mindotl men will approve of the decision of tKe Salem saloOn men to keop cloned on Sunday, pending the de eision of the Courts. There are those unreasonable enough to be unwilling to give these SHloon men credit for nny good actions what ever. But why not tnke,thc saloon men nt their word, and give them credit for bolng law-abiding citizens in this in stance. Tho .Statesman says this dgrcement is to last only four weeks. But this is a mistake. There is no time fixed, except that the courts are to decide first. It is to be regretted that the first step In the right direction toward an nmicublo holutiim of the Sunday en forcement effort should be misconstrued nnd belittled. But there will always be those who give the saloon men no credit for nny. thing. To n fair person they are citi zens, with rights, feelings, taxpayers, men of families, and even church mem bers in a free country 0 STUDENTS NOMINATE OFFICERS to cover the whole condition of mental nnd moral derangement. marked out for Itself.

It is hard to conceive of nnything morn inhuman, outrageous and crim inal than tho reported prnctico of tho Xonparoil Cork Works, at Camden, .Vow Jersoy. It Is said that nt those works, in milking life preservers for ships, in onlor to bring the cork goods up to tho required weight, bars of iron wore injected into them. Indictments hnvo been returned against the manufacturers, but, ns nbly. ' v. usual, tho raptyulblo pnrtlos enirnot ho Intuited. Arthur Beddell, u inombor of tho Federal grand jury that returned the indictments ngaliist the cork mtinu fncturers, said: "A sporlnt agent of the government was appointed a short time ago to in vestigate tho cork produooil by the plant, us a result of a complaint from a Now York firm. Ho testified to find ing tho bars pf iron in the cork and submitted n broken block In evidence, it eontnlned nu iron bar four inches long, one inch wide nnd about ono half inch thick." .lames Jonos, u mulatto who worked nt tho plant, said that last mouth he wus told that there was too much com plaint about tho eork being short weight nnd ho wns ordered to put nu iron Imr into enoli piece of eork. He said that altogether he had made 251 blocks of eork with iron In them. The Invostigntiim into tho (louernl tfliMMim disaster proved that tho life preserver! had boon storod so long without examination that the eork hd ruttod to powder, nnd that they rer absolutely worthless in eonso- IHlir.

" At tho flist regular business meeting of tho Studeut Body held in the Chap el yesterday afternoon, nominations wero made for tho different student body ofiiccs, far tho ensuing year. According to the new constitution which was adopted last spring, nil student body elections must be in ac cordance with the Australian ballot system. The nominations are to be mode on the second Wednesday in Oc tober of each school year and tho elec tions nre to be held one week later. This system is used almost exclusively in the larger Kastorn colleges, but the University 'of Oregon is the only oth er institution in this stute which has adopted it.
