THlE STUDENTS TOTE
One of the favorite shafts aimed by
e critics of American colleges at the
adents of today is the accusation o'f
difference to important political and
cial issues. It is reassuring, there-
re, to most of us to see that the
adents of the University of Michi-
.n have a live interest in at least
le, and probably the greatest, of the
sues of the day, prohibition.
It is not half so important which
ay they decide in the matter; their
dgments on many matters are des-
ned to change before they take hold
the reigns of government. That
ey do show the desire to lift theirI
ices for what they believe right is
e main thing. The standing of thel
ree propositions in the referendum
anges every hour, but at the time of
riting those in favor of complete re-I
ntion of existing laws were in the
ad. The Daily does not wish to com-
ent one way or the other until the
loting is finished, especially since
e closeness of the vote as it stands
w would make it more than danger-
is to predict what the final result1
ill be..

Twenty-Five Years
Ago At Michigan
From the files of the U. of M. Daily,
February 15, 1899.
One of the most amazing operations
ever attempted in modern surgery was
undertaken last night by Doctor de
Nancrede when he removed a large
brain tumor 3 inches by 2 and one
half, which had produced an almost
total loss of speech and a paralysis of
the right arm and leg. The patient
immediately regained her speech and
improved in the use, of her hand and
