W.J. BRYAN IS COMING

HE WILL SPEAK IN UNIVERSITY HALL FEB. 18

He Will Oppose Imperialism Under the Auspices of the Good Government Club

At the Good Government Club lecture last night President Mulholland announced that a letter had been received from Wm. J. Bryan whereby he has definitely promised to come to Ann Arbor on Feb 18, and speak to the students on "Imperialism." Permission has also been obtained from President Angell to allow Mr. Bryan to speak in University hall. As a result, the Good Government Club are highly elated as they were for a long while in doubt whether Mr. Bryan could come or not. Ever since he resigned his commission in the army, solicitations have been numerous and urgent and the club deserves much credit for its success.

As the lecture is not to be simply before the club, but in University hall where admission will be charged, somewhat new arrangements have had to be made. Under such circumstances Mr. Bryan always receives one half of the sale of tickets, so single admission tickets for the lecture will be sold at 50 cents. Course tickets, however, for the remaining four lectures may be had for the same price.

It is expected that parties will be made up all over this section of the state to hear Mr. Bryan as he has no other engagements in Michigan. University hall will therefore probably be taxed to its limit on Feb. 20.
