We must now call for the application Of
the laws to all college students. as they are
applied to all other people Besides the tragedy
OF the Cornell University. there has this week
been Q big racket at Tufts College and lesser
rackets at two other colleges Why should
not the police arrest the Tufts sophomores
who sacked the rooms and smashed the furni-
ture OF the freshmen. just as they would arrest
any other gang Of marauders who entered
house and sacked it7 Why should the guilty
students OF Tufts be permitted to go at large
when other men perpetratine deeds like theirs
would DO cent to the penitentiary for years2
There can be no discrimination in favor OF any
class Of evildoers.
Some OF the students at Dartmouth. also.
have recently rendered themselves liable to
punishment for their unlawful deeds.
College fun Ia one thing college rowdyism or
violence 10 different thing. Horseplay may
be tolerated among students; but fslonious
conduct cannot be.
The civil and Grimm al codes Of the State m st
be enforced In colleges as they are elsewhere.
Students must be made to understand that
they have no rights other than those which
belong to all citizens. The laws are not barred
out by q college gate.

The Hon. julius STERLING MORTON is In
q false position as Secretary Of Agriculture
because he seems to be no friend OF paternal
agriculture. and the Department OF Agricul-
ture exists for no other purpose, with the
exception Of spending some Of the Govern
ments money in salaries. In letter to
Congressman JOE SHELLEY Of Pennsylvania
In regard TO certain misrepresentation OF
the Secretary's opinions about the Russian
thistle, which the statesmen OF the blizzard
belt want Congress to appropriate million
dollars to exterminate. Mr. MORTON says:
~ do not think II Is the business Government
TO destroy weeds for the people any more than It s to
raise wheat for ths to cultivate corn by sppropFia
tions from the public funds"
This Is as true as truth. The Government
has no more right to pull up weeds for the
benefit OF a citizen. than to pay for his shoes
or to paint his cart. 1t cannot he repeated
too often that the business OF the Govern
ment Is to mind it's own business. 1t is not
doing so In conducting a department for
tho supposed benefit OF farmers. Let the
farmers take care OF themselves. as shoe
makers and conductors and lawyers do. The
farmers do take care Of themselves. and the
supposed help given to them by the Govern
ment Is vain and illusory.
Mr.. MORTON has tried to pare down some
OF the Kumbugs in his department. but
total amputation is the only remedy. His
own principles are inconsistent with his re-
naming in an office from which the hand Of
the Government is constantly thrusting
forth knife to cut down the citizens weeds
or powder to kill his potato bugs. Come
out Of the humbug. Mr.. MORTON. Ask
Congress to abolish your job.

PARIS. June 2S.-The moderate republican

dent Casimir-Perier a favorable reception
and say that they are convinced that the
majority of the French nation and the real

election a reply to anarchist challenges.
The Gaulois urges that the ''soyful event"
should be celebrated by the proclamation of
po::ticsl amnesty and the repeal Of the
exile laws.
La Justice also demands amnesty for Do
litical offenders.
The radical organs regard the election Of
NJ Casimir-Perter as. victory Of the con-
servauves over the advanced sections.
The Rappel says that after the horrible
crime the majority was bound to choose a
president Of resistance.
