for
ers that he did this. The Taft adher-
ents hal the same privilege as the so-
cialists. They did not avail themselves
of the opportunity. That is not the
fault of the men in charge of the vote
but rather of the republicans at large.
Had the republicans chosen to expend
the time and energy required to gath-
er votes for their candidate, no objec-
tion to their ballots would have been
raised by the editors.
But the communication stands. It
does not reflect damage on the ballot
It does not reflect upon the editors or
upon The Michigan Daily. It is rath-
er a reflection upon the writer. Any
publicity which is not backed up by
fact is harmful. To accuse a man, or
office, or journal of neglect of duty is
aserious thing. It requires the truth
to substantiate it. When this is lack-
ing it becomes ;merely the evidence of
some one's desire to air his views.
A Diagnosis.
It is becoming trite to refer to our-
selves as a miniature society. But it
is a useful conception. We might exist
either as an inorganic mass or as a
living, functioning organism. We have
passed the former stage, and have
risen very near to the latter.
One might, by a little exercise of the
imagination, impose upon the univer-
sity community the biological theory
of the state. Without stopping to ex-
plain the analogy in detail, the various
campus organizations may be assigned
in the social body the attributes and
functions of the cells of the physical
body. Fundamentally they are much
to be desired. They constitute the em-
bryo of a larger and more intimate so-
cial life. By virtue of their protoplasm
of social aspirations and habits we
pass from lower to higher stages until
the culmination in a single, live, ra-
tional being. As yet this higher or-
ganism, the final stage, exists only in
the ideal. The ideal is the realized
Michigan Union. The analogy is not
entirely fanciful. The evolution of the
final stage can be definitely pointed to
by those who know the history of the
Michigan Union since its origin.
What, now, shall we do with the
cells of this social body after it, has
assumed its proper form, has acquired
sufficient strength to stand on its own
legs and sufficient maturity to live an
independent, rational life? Some ad-
vise, "Destroy them." But in counsel-
ling thus they fail to discriminate be
tween vital cells and parasitic germs.
The former should be saved, the latter
destroyed.. The destructionists should
first segregate the harmful germs.

As yet no clue as to the identity of the
thief has been found.

Straw Vote a Fair One.
In the issue of the Detroit Free
Press for March 1 there appeared a
comunication signed by a student in
the university. It contained grave
charges against the Michigan Daily.
In it was stated that the recent straw
ballot was conducted in such a manner
as to allow voting by outsiders. It
further stated that the socialists can-
vassed the Chinese laundries for votes.
These facts may or may not be true.
The Michigan Daily did not restrict its
vote to students of the university. Any
person who complied with the condi-
tions of the election was eligible to
vote. That the socialists canvassed
for votes is not the business of The
Michigan Daily. The fact that all of
their ballots complied with the rules
of the vote, made them perfectly le-
gal.
Eugene Debs defeated President
Taft for the third place in the ballot.
It was due to the efforts of his support-
