YALE MAN PROTESTS,
Results of the Bryan Meeting as
Represented by the Outside Press.
Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 25.
Edit tor of Yale Alumni Weekly:
> writer has always taken a
=ir:—The
»ride in Yale, and since gradua-
som bas never missed a chance of
--wing to influence young men fitting
re to favorably consider the
antages of Yale.
> great respect for Yale has been,
than for any other reason, on
sunt of the Democratic spirit of
fair play I always found there, cater-
ine to no class »r clique, but allowing
every man a fair chance to prove and
profit by his abilities, without preju-
adiee as to family position, religious or
political beliefs. Consequently I
have been much pained and chagrined
to learn through the press of the coun-
try of the very unmanly treatment
ziven by Yale men to Mr. Bryan, the
~_%
nominee of one of the great political
parties, for the highest office in the
sift of the people.
This outrage, while it must be con-
demned by all fair minded people, in
all sections of the country, in my opin-
ion will especially hurt Yale in the
Wrest, as it cannot help being taken as
a direct insult and breach of hospital-
ity by this section of our country, on
which Yale is as much dependent as
any other, for her support. And as an
alumnus, always heretofore proud of
Yale, I take this means of urging that
immediate action be taken by the Uni-
versity to make suitable apologies to
Mr. Bryan and to show to the world
that the unworthy treatment shown
by this gathering does not well repre-
sent the sentiment of Yale, and that
the offenders are believed by their fel-
low students to have sinned as much
against the fair name of Yale, as
against Mr. Bryan.
Respectfully,
F. N. SEWALL, Yale ’86.
THE INDIANS INDIGNANT.
(New York World.)
Muskogee, I. T., Sept. 29.—At a mass
meeting of the Cherokees, Creeks,
Choctaws and Seminoles, held here
yesterday, the following resolution was
unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That we contemplate with .
regret the recent insulting treatment
of William J. Bryan by students of a
college in the land of the boasted
white man’s civilization, and we ad-
monish ali Indians, who think of send-
ing their sons to Yale, that associa-
tion with such students could but
prove hurtful alike to their morals
and their progress towards the oo
standard of civilization.
WE ‘GO TO SCHOOL.”
Lafayette, Ind., Oct. 2.—The Demo-
eratic students of Purdue University,
at a meeting last night, unanimously
adopted this resolution:
“Whereas, The students of Yale Uni-
versity last week grossly insulted the
Hon. William J. Bryan, candidate for
the highest office in the gift of the
freest and best country on. earth;
therefore be it
“Resolved, That we, the Democratic
students of Purdue University, an in-
stitution whose students go to school
and are not sent, condemn the action
of those who took part in that un-
gentlemanly, uneducational and un-
American proceeding as unworthy the
institution whose students they are.’’
