that annexation is merely a choice of
evils.

A contemporary, speaking of the effort
to divert the agricultural college fund
from the Georgia university, recalls the
fact that similar fund was not long
ago taken from Yale to found the Storrs
agricultural college in Connecticut The
cases are not parallel. Yale is very rich,
and could well afford to get along with
out the agricultural college fund, while
TO deprive the Georgia university of it
would seriously hurt that institution. If
the Georgia college were to receive such
endowments as come to Yale from time
to time, it would not be subject to politi-
cal influences as it is now.

1t is hardly conceivable that President
Mckinley would lend himself to the 'gold
statue project. 1t may be all right for
an actress to pose for a silver statue, and
1t would be all right for a circus man or
a museum freak, to submit to being mold
ed in other metal for exhibition purposes.
But the President of the United States is
not freak, or ought not to be. 1t might
please Maj. McKinley's vanity to see him
self represented in a million-dollar image
of gold, but there can be no doubt that his
good sense will prompt him to order the
projectors of the scheme to stop it at once.

Will We Have an Extra Session.

Rumors are current that even at
this late date the Governor may
conclude to call All extra session of
the legislature. For some time it
has been evident to the onlooker
in politics that the Chief Executive
of the Commonwealth of Idaho
was between the devil and the
deep sea i'll regard to this PROPOSE
ton OF recalling in special session
the late lamented fourth legisla.
ture. Since the fee bill decision
the laws of the state have been
marching with deadly precision
against the carving knife welded
bv the supreme court. Indeed as
the Governor sits in his office in
the capital and views the remains
of the work OF the late legislative
session he is reminded of Waiter
sons story Of party marching
through the slaughter house to an
open grave.
On the other hand to call an
extra session will entail an addi-
tional expense not at all likely to
attract voters to the party of econ
omy and reform And then with
the extra session once opened nc
power can tell what mischief would
result from the motley gang now
openly at war aud broken III fac.
tons over the division OF the .poils
Uneasy lies the head that wear.

There is no better indication OF
happy New Year than that from
eastern factories where wages are
advanced from ten TO seventeen
percent to take effect January /.
With the single exception Of the
cotton industry every other large
interest has advanced wages during
the year. The depression in the
cotton industry has been due to
the excessive importations rushed
into the country just prior to the
passage of the new tariff bill. 1t
is estimated that over a year S sup
plies were sent i'll on that flood.
When this supply is exhausted
and our own mills begin to manu-
facture our own product wages
here will advance to keep pace
with other industries.

ing to Great Britain the Island CT Pan
tellaria, situated sixty miles southwest
ly and about half way between
island and the African coast. in
exchange for the Island of Perrin. of
the Arabian coast, in the Strait of Bah
Ell Mandeb and at the entrance of the
Red Sea. The Island Perrin is a bare
rock about FIVE miles long, on which
turtle shells are taken. and used as a
coal depot, whereas the Island of Pan
tellaria has an area Of ffty-eight square
miles, a population of about 1000, pro-
duces fine fruits and has a convenient
port, Oppidolo, at its northwest point.
Situated almost in the middle of the
main thoroughfare of the Mediter-
ranean, Pantellaria, now an Italian
convict depot, could be converted into
another of the strongly fortified stations
of the British. Under the circum-
stances the Echo de Paris expresses the
hope that the powers will interfere and
refuse TO permit the transfer of the
island referred to.
