The con- That the straw vote held recently

Prof.F. of results throughout the state was

of Kan- Osborn stated that the calling of the
of Michi- special session was in some measure
90. This due to the result of the straw vote at
tha The Michigan.
r that he "The fact that Debs, the socialist
ate poet- candidate, polled more votes than ei-
ther Taft or La Follette tends to show
N that the Socialists are gaining much
NLY ground, a growth which is in a large
degree due to the feeling among the
common people that they are not hav-
ESTS ing the voice in the government that
they should have," said the governor,
"and the only way to prevent this
J uniorgrowth of socialism is to give to the
people the fullest measure of power in
igi- handling their affairs. One of the
purposes in calling the special session
of the legislature is to put this power
ONIGHT in the hands of the people."

n
Fifth Anniversary celebration is one an
of the most serious problems that the
committees in charge have to face. w
The proposition under serious consid- thl
eration is that a tent be used large ch
enough to contain some 5,000 people. m
If the plan goes through the huge can- ha
vas will most likely be erected in the the
space bounded by the chemistry build-
ing on one side and the gymnasium
and the medical building on the other.
But in case this suggestion should not
work out, University Hall will have
to be relied'on.
Preparations for the celebration are
under way in the hands of the various
faculty committees, and gradually def- S
inite plans are being evolved from
chaos. By way of publicity, 10,000
leaflets are to be printed, giving data
as to the scope, the purpose, and the
general plans of the celebration. Sec-
retary Shaw of the Alumni Associa-
tion will mail bunches of these to the
secretaries of the various classes te
which .are to hold reunions this June, kn
and Secretary Smith will have them is
for general distribution along with co
the bulletins- and other printed matter an
mailed from his office. Besides this, a h
short notice of the celebration was H
published in the 100,000 Summer Ses- n
sion bulletins which were printed last mn
month.
Two of the speakers,Jeremiah Jenks ha
and Bishop Burch, of New York, have th
been engaged, but the choice of the th
third is still unsettled. ly

their case.
The promoters sold some professors
about eleven-thousand dollars' worth
of oil stock which they claimed did not
prove as gilt-edged as it had been rep-
resented. The professorial purchasers
had the sellers thrown into jail on
body execution of judgment. This
was nine months ago. The legal time
having expired they are seeking their
freedom.
During their confinement the ex-
pense of keeping these men at the jail
has been met by the professors.
