Over two hundred students are now
enrolled for the new academic year at
Colby University, the highest number
ever known in the history of the college.
The freshman class has already sixty in
the regular couse, thirty-six young men
and twenty-four young ladies, and seven
in special studies, making sixty-seven in
all. Four students have been dismissed
to other colleges and three received,
two into the Sophomore class and one
into the Junior. The catalogue will ac-
cordingly show twenty-five more last
students this year than were present
year. Prof. Bayley has been engaged all
summer in the work of the geological
survey in Michigan. Prof. Rogers has
been in attendance upon several scienti-
fic societies, returning with Prof. Nor
lev of Adelbert College, Ohio, to conduct
various experiments to ascertain the ex-
act amount of the expansion of metals.
This is done by means of an ingenious
apparatus constructed by Prof. Rogers
in the Shannon Laboratory. The
method was suggested by Prof Morley.

continue these experiments with the
metals steel and bronze this year, and
eventually with all the useful metals,
thus making an important addition to
science.

 New Orleans is in hard luck A democratic primary election follow ed by S3,OOO,O0O fire are truly dire misfortunes.
 An address issued by the national association of democratic clubs de- votes considerable space to the fede- ral election bill, but forgets to say a word about free coinage.
 The platform of the democratic leaders in congress: We believe in free trade, and the free coinage of silver, but it is impolitic to commit ourselves on the latter until after the presidential election.
 David Backwards Hill is not making as much progress towards the nomination as he recently ap- peared to be doing. Dodging, skulk- ing and Tammany Hall is proving too bitter a dose for even democrats to swallow.

Parkhurst answer ed, offering to produce the evidence to convict; another grand jury may return a similar answer.

 The following item concerning a Yavapai county mining enterprise is taken from the Phenix Gazette: "Six big teams loaded with six inch iron piping for the Rich Hill Placer Mining company, of Yavapai county. There will be twelve car loads of this piping when it all arrives from New York. This company, it is un- derstood, will construct a big dam in the creek below Geuung's spring, near Stanton, to catch water with which to sluice the rich gravel beds below. The spring itself furnishes four miner inches of water all the year round, and a very large body can be held by means of dam be- low; this is fed by the live stream running into it continually, will fur nish water sufficient to do a large amount of sluicing every year, and as the placer grounds below are very rich, thousands of dollars of gold will be taken out. No doubt many such enterprises as this will be started in the west during the coming year as the low price of sill yer will force mining men to hunt for gold.n

 There is considerable adverse criticism upon the rulings of Col. Herring as to the taxing of mining claims. If these critics would halt long enough to reason, they would understand that Col. Herring did not make the law. The fault---if there is any--is with the law mak- CTS not with the officers sworn to execute the laws. Col. Herring is a l fair minded man and would not in any manner seek to cripple any in- dastry Tombstone Pr,spector. The following echoes from the term of court recently held in Mo have county are taken from the Miner of that county: Judge Wells is winning golden opinions for his fairness and impartial rulings as . judge of this circuit.

Previous to the election Tn Rhode Island, the democrats gave out that
 the result of the election would be a good indication of the result of the election in November. It was generally understood that extra ef- forts would be made to carry the state for their party. They sent their best speakers there to canvass the state, such men as Ex-Governor Campbell, Grover Cleveland and others of equal prominence. They were jubilant over the prospect, and boldly proclaimed that the state was sure to give a democratic ma iority. The election returns show clearly the reason that they were
 so confident of success. It shows th-t the vote boiled was about To- oo0 in excess of any previous cleo
 tions. These 10000 extra voters were c5lonized in the state for the pur- nose of roting the democratic ticket and carrying the state for that marty Their work was done so quietly. an they thought it would be raualiy rnective, that they had no laaat of he result, hence their confidence. In the face of all these
 influences however, the republican 1.sf.ry was greater than ever before

HOW rmE TRADE WAS LOST.

The vulture editorial writer of our contemporary recently attempted to show that protection was respon- sible for the decline of American shipping interests. The Los Angeles Times in recent issue demonstrates very clearly what knocked the Amer ican ships If the Pacific. Here Is what it says:
 "There is one point in connection with the closing of Boring sea and the renewal of the modus vivendi that has not been sufficiently em- phasized by the American newspa- pers, and that is that, under the old order of things, commeree worth hundreds of thousands of dollars annually was lost to the Pacific Coast.
 "A few years ago nearly all the schooners engaged in taking seals were built either in San Francisco or on Puget Sound; were fitted out on the American side; were manned by Americans and returned regularly with their catch to some Pacific Coast port, where the skins were dis posed of. The commerce that was thus built up in connection with this industry amounted to nearly half q million dollars yearly. It was under the Cleveland administration, when Bayard was secretary of state, that this trade was lost to us. Mir. Bay ard, who was particularly aggressive toward some of the weaker South American powers, backed down com pletely in the face of the British bluff when the threat was made to release all seized British sealsrs by the force of the British navy, if nec- essary. The result was that, while ! Ameiican sealers were seized and confiscated, vessels and cargoes and all, tine British schooners were merely warned, as a matter of form, and were never molested although they went right on to tho breeding grounds and slaughtered the seals ' male and lomaie iudlscriminateiy.
 The next year all the -eaiers were built and fitted out aJ NictoTis, 0n British soil. Fh"-- s' ..,..a tbave
 -te3 t~s1i httI t1ct' with .elr catches and this com 'e..ssce was lost entirely to the snited 1 States. lt has been MT. Blaine's policy, in dealing with the Boring sea question, to change all this so a: to put American citizens on foot ing with the British. Mir. Sails bury's bluff did not affect anything and when "poachers" are allowed 1T Bering sea again it is safe to sa, that under republican administra tion the United States will get tho benefit of this commerce."

Our contemporary says that ''Cleveland has wonderful control of his mouth. It never goes of ex- cept at the right time, and invaria- bly makes a center shot," Cleve- land will be gratifed to read this opinion of him, as he has acquired the reputation even among his own party papers of ''never opening his mouth but he gets his foot in it." By the advice of his friends, he has of late kept his mouth closed, and it is said that he carries his right arm in sling, by the advice of his friends also to prevent him from writing any letter.

Bulletin No. of the Agricultural Experiment Station of the Univer- sity of Arizona refers to investiga- tions being made to determine the value of Canaigre. This plant is also known as '.sour dock"
 Canaigre bears some resemblance to rhubarb or pie-plant. 1t is found in southern Texas, New Mexico and Arizona, scattered along the river and creek bottoms, occasionally covering patches of several acres. It is also sometimes found on high land when the soil is moist.
 The roots of the Canaigre contain twice as much tannin as oak or hem lock bark, and the object of the in- vestigations is to learn if the plant can be cultivated and included in the staple crops of this region.
 The Bulletin states that the Ex- pertinent Station is studying the plant to determine the following points:
 I. Will it respond to cultivation and yield enough per acre to make it profitable to grow, fl 1t can be placed on the market in large quan- titiasi
 II. Is irrigation advisable, or necessary, and if so. how much, and whenl III. Will application of water in irrigation affect the quantity and quality of the tannin in the plantf
 ". What soils are best adapted to its growths
 Cainaigre has been planted in several places in the Territory and on a variety of soils, and careful chemical and botanical study is be | ing made to learn soil requirements of habi, and growth.
 Seeking all valuable information, ! the Bulletin asks assistance on the { following points from the public: l. The geographical limits ofthe natural growth of the plant. 2. Estimate of the amount that may be gathered frc:.i plants grow i Ing wild
 a. Roots from places in the Terri tory where the plant grows m abundance with description of soil and surroundings, to aid in deter mining what arethe soil requirements Members of the Station stall will visit as many localities where the plant grows as time will permit, buI correspondence is sought with any one who can supply information ir regard to the plant.
 The bulletins of the Station ars sent free to any applicant. Addresl communication to Agricultura Experiment Station, Tucson, Ari' 1 zona.
