The Primary contest at De Psuw, after the controversy sbont
the lodges was settled, resulted in
the selection of Mr. A.J. Beveridge to represent their University at the
State Contest. Mr. Beveridge wil
be remembered in Bloonrington as
the young "Governor" of Illinois,
who addressed a Blaine meeting
here last fall. From his effort on that occasion we judge our representative has no boy's plays before him, if he is going to bring home the victor's wreath. Mr. Beveritlge's subject is "Capital and L-bor."

f Inn BRinflfT collesre circles. On
last Friday night, March 13th, ! occurred the lltb Primary Oratorical contest, to select an orator to represent Ind. University in the Inter-Collegiate Contest, to be held at Indianapolis next month. At each of the ten primary contents tests heretofore, there were from four to nine contestants. At the first, in 1875, there were four; this year there were only three. But in point of excellence the speeches
presented this ycai take high rank among ail previous efforts. The number of contestants, we suppose has some influence upon the attendance, for a slightly diminished though quite a large audience, greeted the orators on this oonuinn. Trie audience was in the
best of humor, and though composed largely of partisians all aflame with anxiety for the success of their man, yet all were in favor of fair play, and each speaker was accorded respect and close attention, and the best of order. The uproarious noise, called applause, which the

While the deicsion does not accord with the notions of all of us, it is nd doubt as satisfactory as any which coald have been given. It was a fair contest, the judges were capable and conscientious, and Mr. Dunlap won the victory by an almost unanimous vote of the judges. There is no good cause for complaint, arid we believe our Orator should receive the congratulations and hearty support of all rival sf B-
factions, as be has aireaay 01 ms generous opponents. Mr. Dunlap s a good speaker. He has carried this reputation with him during his five years in Colege,and we believe

man behaves in an audience, made the waiting moments very unpleasant by their continuous stamping and clapping. The practice of loud clapping while couples are coming
in, has become so senseless andmily that it is left for the small boys and
those verdant youths who excite the
appetites of the cows on the street
The noise was without point from first to last, and the only "excuse"
for it was the uncontrolled desire of boisterous boys to make a noise. The matter ought to be controlled.

It is understood that Prof. Kirkwood, the referee, would have voted tor Carr. Dr. Fisk marked Mr. Fitch within one-tenth of the first place. The boys have a hard time in choosing judges. All sorts of objections to everybody are con
jured up in their minds, so mag
nified is the notion that their chances are aflvcted by the personnel of the
Board of Judges. Any one fit to
be a judge would try to act fairly
and without bias, and the boys would fare as well if tbey spent less
time and worry in tbe selection.
