MUSTER OUT THE STUDENTS.
There Is a Special Demand for Ihe
Scholarly Soldier at Home.

Editor Republican.
When the Spanish-American war was
declared there was no class Of Ameri-
cans more ready To serve their country
than the studepts of colleges and und-
versailles. This WAS right, because they
were a strong, healthy and Intelligent
class. and many were drilled I'm mill
tary tactics. From all parts these brave
boys volunteered their services. !,
But now that the war Is over. should
not the students be the first to be re-
leased? Have they not a more import
ant calling at home than most volun-
teers? A few days out Of college may
change the tenor OF their whole lie,
and Uncle Sam should not retain them
in the dreary camps when they can
serve their country better at college.
This Is especially 80 in this state, and
the writer can give the names of many
volunteers in Torrey's cavalry, Alger
light artillery and Colonel Foote's bat-
TALON who long to contend once again
with science and language In Wyo-
ming's university since they cannot
fight the 'Dons. This seems to many q
subject worthy of consideration and
even work, and I call upon those In au.
thority to Use their influence that our
patriotic students be returned at once
to their college homes.
