The Univer sity Athletic Association regard ing itself as the nivalis by which such a need could be supplied, at a stated meeting elected a board of editors (chief and five subs.) and a business manager. With this apology only, the first issue of the first volume of the Tar Hkki. makes its appear ance. This new venture is necessarily entered upon by the present board with no little trepidation, never theless with a determination, to make a success which can only be done through the indulgence and assistance of our faculty and fellow-students. Therefore we in vite honest criticism and .tuy aid in the advancement of this new project will be thoroughly appre ciated. , THE LEGISLATIVE COM MITTEE VISIT THE UNIVERSITY. The following members of the legislature composing the visita tion committee arrived at the Uni versity on a special train Friday morning, February rdj Messrs. Battlc.chainnan ;Check Aycokc, James, Pou, of the sen ate; .and Messrs. Holt (chairman) Fuse, Parker, Starncs, Walker, Ward, of the house. After breakfasting, the regular chapel exercises were attended, then visits were made to the read ing room, libraries and various lecture rooms where classes were assembled. The numerous labor atories were insjccted as well as some of the students' rooms. In the afternoon meetings of both the societies were held and the gentlemen who were not alumni were made honorary members. Just after prayers the boys called repeatedly for speeches from our visitors, a majority of whom re sponded most felicitously and gave words of encouragement for the fi hire outlook of the univer sity, from a legislative appropri ation standpoint All saw the need of a sufficient appropriation t. fully equip, this the most use ful t' important of all the State prvrt'e.-, and give to! a univer sity of 'vhose iwst brilliant record and whose future prospects are such as would make any State in the union proud to be the posses sor of such an heritage to Ijaiid to posterity, a sufficient appropria tion to put the university on a financial basis equal to its rapid exclusion and growth. When some of the committee expressed their deep regret at not having had an opportunity of receiving an cduantiou, in their youth, we could not but feel that it was a duty that was owed to future gen erations, and which has been due to those that have passed away, that the supreme law making jxnver in the .State, ought to make tuition at the university free to North Carolinians as is done at the University of Virginia to Vir ginians and the only way to do this is to appropriate a sufficient amount to keep the university up, until resources from outside States and the technical courses shall make Itself sustaining, and, too, we couid not but think what a shame and loss it was to North Carolina, that it had failed, to open the doors of the university, in the past to such sterling man hood as represented the legislature on the committee. The body of the students were well pleased with our friends, if they are fair sample of our legislators th? year. North Carolina is in go hands. They know the needs of the University.
