Herbert Grant has been ap- pointed Commissioner of Public Works of Rochester, N. J. ’70—The Brooklyn Eagle commenting on the changes in the New York Even- ing Post staff on the retirement of Mr. Godkin and the appointment of Mr. Horace White to the editorship, says: “Mr. White’s right hand associate in the office as a result of the change which has occurred will be Mr. Edward P. Clark of Brooklyn. A Yale man, early the Managing Editor under Samuel Bowles of the Springfield Republican, at a time Editor of the Milwaukee Sen- tinel, and then an editorial writer for the Brooklyn Union, Mr. Clark went to the Post in the middle of the eighties, and has been one of its most industrious, faithful and effective writers, advanc- ing from position to position with the years. He is in entire sympathy with Mr. Horace White in all his ideas, and the two men will continue to be assisted by the able and brilliant crops of edi- tors and correspondents that have dis- tinguished that newspaper. Mr. Clark is a master of a clear style, is one of the most industrious and earnest thinkers on the press and has the great gift of persistence and of interesting reitera- tion of views, which have made the Post, with his pen, so powerful against vested or intended wrongs. He simply de- stroyed the chances of the Blair bill of spoliation in the name of education by a campaign of extraordinary power and duration in which he led the thought of the press of the country and by moral and logical power commanded the opin- ion of the Congress of the United States. The general public does not know, what all newspaper men are likely to know, who are the principal workers on great dailies. Mr. Clark’s place on that roll is deservedly high.” : ‘72—E. H.

Dr. Swisher is the ideal type YALE Ati MIs a ——eeeeees of the nineteenth century college pro- fessor, with a tact and breadth of view which extensive travel and large experi- ence with men and affairs have given him. His speech of introduction was the most appropriate and graceful of the occasion. With a_ warrantable stretch of imagination he alluded to the most Reverend John Carroll as the Pre- late of the Revolution, the life-long friend of Washington, the trusted col- league of Franklin, whose priestly robe but ill concealed the diplomat -and states- man. Dr. Swisher spoke eloquently of the Puritan of New England, the Cath- olic of Maryland, the French Huguenot and the German Lutheran, whose an- tagonisms had been harmonized by the tolerance of Washington, and lauded the farsighted statesmanship of the early Catholic settlement of Maryland, whose colonial assembly was the first political body on this continent to establish com- plete religious toleration.” "78—Rev.

Mr. Meyer supplemented this by offering to be one of fifty citizens who will pay $10 each to any person who kills a burg- lar or highwayman in the act of com- mitting robbery. Alderman Alling is anxious to repudiate any relationship to the dead-highwayman ordinance. He wants one drawn which will offer a re- ward for the capture and conviction of such offenders.” 88 S.—W.

I send to each of you herewith the last annual report of the Yale Alumni Fund Association, which shows that this As- sociation has paid over to the Treasurer of the University for current expenses $80,000 in the last eight years. A gen- erous support of this Association will be a most efficient aid to the Bi-centennial Committee, between the members of which and the Association there is the closest harmony of purpose. The few alumni who possess large wealth can be more confidently depended upon, if the great body of the alumni will contribute in proportion to their means. The op- portunity is now offered to continue to the new administration of Yale the loyal support which was given to the old. We have 86 names’ on this honor list; let us raise the number to 100 at once. The names of contributors only, and not the amount of their contributions, are published.
