Lynching, like Slavery, has never recognized racial or geographic limits; as the fate of the Mayor of Omaha forcibly reminds us. Hundreds of white men in this country have been victims of lawlessness and mob violence; it was the lynching of a Montana labor leader that called forth President Wilson's utterance of July 26th. It cannot be confined to the South: excluding New England there is not a single section of the Union which has not been the scene of at least one lynching in the past 22 years.

...reprinting from the Atlantic Monthly the last published words of Frederic Schenck, untimely rapt away,--words, which, by a strange fate, discuss another's guessing at the problem Schenck himself was so soon to solve, the editors have paid a graceful tribute to the memory of a brilliant...

Such is the unhappy lot of those who room in the Yard dormitories. The Ensign School is apparently blissfully ignorant and wholly immune in regard to the Parietal Regulations, but one hesitates to think of the student's fate who should as successfully arouse the Yard some-time before dawn. If this nocturnal performance is necessary to the health and happiness of the ensigns, why cannot a more auspicious site be chosen for it? There are a dozen places in or near the Yard that could be selected with better consideration for the comfort of others. The war being over...
