_- Popular Liberty of To-Day.

BY M. G. KAIMS, BRESFPERIAN SOCIETY,

[This oration WAS awarded first ptize in the Oratori-
cat Contest-}

oreat blessing of modern crviliza-
tion is freedom of thought.

¢times, when’ a war ended, thousands of
© prisoners were put to death or made
“glaves; ‘later, the conquered were al-
~~ lowed to live as: subjects of the state, but
“without the rights of citizenship. “The

feudal system placed the peasantry on a

“footing little better than that of slavery.
These conditions necessarily restricted the
‘“éxpression of “opinion, for which impris-
““énment, torture, and even death were
Penalties. As the common people gained
‘power these characteristics of barbarism
‘ pradually disappeared; and with their
disappearance slowly arose the doctrine
of equal rights, and ‘the toleration of free
‘speech and free thought. In this: period
wefind the Magna Charta, the: first
_. ‘Stroke, at regal power; the Petition of
~ "Right, re-establishing the right of trial
by jary, and demanding just taxes; and

..? the Habeas Corpus act, compelling justice

io imprisonment. In further tracing the

history of our freedom we find the Dec-

Taration of Independence ; the American
Constitution; the Emancipation Procla-
ration. These aré the diamonds in the
crowa of American’ iberty.
When slaver y was abolished, and for
the first ‘time in histery a million soldiers
disbanded and returned in peace to tbe

“farm and to the factory, to the trades and
to the professions, a new era was inaug- |
_ trated and a warfor wealth began. *

A Query. . -

BY B. A, BOWDITCH, PHI DELTA TRETA FRATERNITY.

. The seventh annual contest of the. M.

A.C. Oratorical Association which was
held October 26, was in every way a
success and by no means inferior to pre-
v1lous meetings,

Now that it is over and each society
has been given a chance to commit itseif
justly, or otherwise, on Article 1 of the
constitution of the association, it may not
be out.of place for one ontside of the
. o¥ganization to attempt to show through
the columns of Tue SPEcuLtiM reasons
why other societies should be admitted to
: membership | in the association. =.

To form an association of four. societies
cut: of the seven represented in the col-
lege, and to absolutely refuse application
for representation made by other soci-
eties, and then to advertise the meeting
as an M. A. ©, QOratorical contest is
surely an injustice and a wrong to the
societies nat represented. If the socie-
ties not represented made no preten-
sion...of -doing literary work,
might be reason for refusing their
application; but by a vote of the Board
of. Agriculture no such society has the
poe of existence in the college.
-vArticle..r of the constitution. as
“amended, reads as follows: This organi-
zation shall consist of the Union Literary,
Eclectic, Olympic, and Hesperian socie-
ties and such other organizations and such
societies as may be admitted by a major-
itv vote of the members. thereof.

..Harly in the term the local oe
er..of Phi Delta.‘ Theta Fraternity
sent application fer membership

to each of the four societies conitrol-
ling the. association. “Two of these so-
eieties took immediate action upon this ap-
plication and voted favorably upon it. To
such societies we have no criticism, for
‘we believe they acted.in accordanée with
the sentiment of the students. .

case the application was laid sindefinitely :
on the table,” and-in the other: the...
matter was never, brought. before “the.
members. An -open-and manly vote with,
a blunt refusal would have’ been. a more
honorable method of action. For this re=;
fusal but three reasons can. be assigned: |
First, from lack of literary training the peti--
toners were incompetent. Second, 1t would
make.the membership toolarge for a suc-
cessful contest. Third, for personal rea-_
sons. the representation was not desired.
As to the first objection, little argu-
ment need be advanced for its refutation.
As said before, no society or organization.
can hold possession of rooms unless they,
hold literary meetings. Phi Delta ‘Theta |
represents'as much and more .than ‘any...
literary society, The objects of. the-fra-:
ternity are broader and the qualifications
for members ship are higher than would: .
be practicable in any open literary s0-,
ciety. The reason for this is obvious, :
since an expulsion from a literary society’ °
is of no consequence to the man or So7.
ciely, whereas, in a fraternity, such action.

means much both to the man and the SO-. -

ciety, consequently such action Is of Tare, 7
occurrence. a

As to the second objection we will call |
attention to the former history of the. or
ganization. oe

The first contest. was. heid in 1888, Q
with three societies in, the organization,. ..
namely: Olympic, Eclectic: and. Union .~
Literary Sosiety, each of. which Had the.
privilege of electing two representatives. a

In 1890 a short time. before the contest,;”
the Hesperian society: made application: -
for membership and were admitted. -Now -
the number of speakers was reduced. to, :
four, one. from each séciety. ” ee

account of increase‘in numbers, can. hhavé:

inerease in numbers creates mure interest:

and would necessarily be an aid in mak-
ing. the contest a greater success: In
connection with this objection it has been
said by some that if the Phi Delta Theta

fraternity was admitted it would also be |

necessary to admit the Delta Tau Delta
fraternity and the Columbian Literary
society. For reasons already given, we
maintain that this would not only. be jus-
tice but -would be a benefit to the organi-
gation In many ways. It would create a
new. interest among the students. It
would previde a.better program by the
‘inereased stimulus in greater competition,

of ducks are found there and: especially

the respect paid to them by the Southern-

in the ranks of science.
Gf nearly every state College and univers-
ity in the country, the name of an M. A.
C. alumnus appears upon the roll of the
faculty or of the Experiment Station staff.
With these facts in view, it would seem
most consistent to believe that although
this i is an Agricultural College, itis train-
ing special agriculturists as well as gen-
eral farmers, and that in the traiming of
Such men a knowledge of the languages

of the scientific world is not only impor

tant but is absolutely essential. “Hitherto
those wishing to pursue special Hnes. of
.- scientific investigation have been required

‘to master these languages elsewhere.
“Bit if this is truly a training school, why
hot have them mastered here? If, in ‘fit-

‘ting for the world of science such men
as C. E. Bessey, L. H. Batley, B. D. Hal-
- stead, and C, M. Weed, the college is

“making a good and legitimate use of its
powers, then it could surely make the
study of German elective, without losing
‘sight of the great object for which it was
7 established. :

HUMOROUS HAPPENINGS, —

Pashby says that the happiest moment of his life |
was when he got that other man’s shoes—on,

Last term board was high in Club Dand low-in
Chib A, so the sub-faculty left Club D and boarded in
Club A. Now board is high in Club A and low in
Club D, The necessary conclusion is that the sub-.
faculty are heavy eaters, though for the life of us we

, can’t see why this should be sa.

Notwithstanding fears to the contrary, the soo. volt
electric. light system seenis to be causing tia treuble,
It was feared by. members of the faculty that 500 volts
wou'd be tag heavy a charge if it should pass ihrough
a pruning hock junto a person, especially if there was

a jack of insulating material.

Club A has conferred the “Order of the Red Apron”
por *’ ‘Artemas” and he is being gradually initiated

"inte the mysteries of the order.

‘Though our electric light system seems to be ¢ota-_
plete we would suggest that a light-be placed: aver the:
dam just to accommodate that senior who takes his
girl out to walk down that way. Had it been there a

_ few nights ago it might have saved the girl the trouble
