Individually the present members of
the Council are in no sense responsi-
ble for the actions of the Council of
1910. The present Councilmen have
seen to it that a general statement of
the accounts for the year has been giv-
en publicity. For this and for their
earnestness in endeavoring to
strengthen the Council they are to be
commended. We have believed that the
accounts relative to public funds
should at. all times be open to public
inspection and that the present Coun-
cil as successor to the former Coun-
cils and custodian of their accounts
should see to it that these accounts
are open. This has now been accom-
plished, the recent opening of the rec-
ords coming on the heels of the inves-
tigation of the disposition of the "bu-
gle fund."
We believe that the Council should
proceed still further toward full frank-
ness. We reiterate our belief that, in
general, the meetings of the Council
should be open to the university pub-
lic.
Let The Student Council come out

Our Own Little Daffydill.
Dashing Delbert, the dauntless duke
of the dreary dungeon, darted dankly
down the demonical decline and drag-
ged the defenseless Doctor devant his
dark den. "Dog!" drolled desperate
Delbert. "Dog!, never," hissed the Doc-
tor, "doc-u-ment!"
Whereupon the strain of "Ike"Fisch-
er's orchestra whiled away a pleasant
evening for all present.
Prof. Johnston to Address Engineers.
Professor Clarence Johnston, of the
surveying department, will speak on
"Water Measurements" in room 304
new Engineering building at 8 o'clock
tonight, under the auspices of the En-
gineering society.
Prof. Johnston was formerly the
state engineer of Wyoming and was
sent to Egypt by the government to in-
vestigate irrigation methods.

It is not for us to sit in judgment on
Councils past or present. It is for us
to place the facts as we find them be-
fore our readers. We do not believe
however that the Council which han-
dled the "bugle fund" was guilty of
any intentional misappropriation of
public funds. We recognize that the
Council must have money. We recog-
nize its undoubted right to tax the
classes and the student body for its
support. That such measures should
have been necessary to provide the
Council with funds is unfortunate and
is a matter for which the student body
is in a large measure to blame. The
Council has not been given prompt and
adequate financial support. ''he pres-
ent state of affairs reveals the necessi-
ty for a definite and compulsory sys-
tem of taxation.
We do not believe, however, that the
Council should raise money by special
collection for a special fund and de-
vote a large portion of that money to
its general purposes. Whether it did
or did not do that, it seems clear that
what it did with the funds should be
open to the student body.
