IRON couNTY's PROSPECTS.

Interest is awakened at last. it

Investment is travelling that way. De-

COLLEGE SAvAGES.

Every year the colleges furnish evil
dence of the fact that men are savages
who find pleasure in the most barbaric
pastimes whenever the fear of the rod
or the law is removed. In that reckless
period of adolescence, after the dread
of the one has vanished and before
respect for the other is formed, boys
do very foolish and very shameful
things. When a lot of them get to-
gether and away from home they
seem to vie with each other in acts of
folly and Of savagery.
Hazing, class-fighting and college
outlawry of almost every description
have been practiced for many years in
the larger institutions of learning
Riots at Yale. tortures at Princeton.
murder at Cornell and scores of cases
like these have been reported from
time to time; and even West Point has
not been free from this disgraceful
business.
The other evening a lot of students
in an Indiana college pretended to mi
tiate a young man into the mysteries
of some alleged secret society. They
stripped the victim. covered him with
axle-grease and applied an electric
battery to his person. The shock pros
trated the young man and completely
destroyed his hearing. The chances
are that his collegiate career is over
and that his whole life has been ruined
by the uncivilized conduct of these
human brutes.
Every one of the miscreants should
be caught. logged. dismissed from the
college and compelled to serve a term
in Jail.

WILD IN THEIR PLANS.


The Washington Star says: There
is talk of the opposition to Mr.. Roberts
making their first move against him on
the opening day. One of the plans is
this: When the new members of the
house are being sworn in. objection to
be offered to Mr.. Roberts taking the
oath of Office. Then. If the speaker
overrules the objection, to appeal from
the difference in an endeavor to get a
majority to override the speaker. This,
it is colltended, would effectually pre-
vent Mr.. Roberts taking his seat and
obviate the necessity for two-.hirds
majority. which would be ruled 20 ex-
pel him.

doubt. When the new members of the

POEMS WORTH READING.
The Midnight Race.

Ca. Paterson Wingate in the Spectator)
The night on the world had nestled down.
He had spread his wings on the old gray
town.
And the sun stole round in the heights of
the arc,
But the low red lamps glowed duh in the
dark
As deep in the heart of the stations blare,
the great express stood waiting there
Then forth rung the stroke of the mid
night hour.
With a seven-fold heat and a seven-fold
flame
We pass as the winds of creation once
And who shall hinder the storm and
stress
OF the winged charge of the night ex-
Sallying out in its might sublime.
With the clash of steel in war with
time?
And a thunder loud and music clear,
Crash forth with the leap of our Wild ca
reer-
Through Dunbar we flashed and through
Durham fled.
As forth from the muzzle the whirling
Ger northern flats all blank and void.
We have shivered the air like an aste-
Let the pine tree shake in the frightful
OF the black express that is passing
there,
To ghostly huts in the moaning wood
Let our echoes swell and hurry the blood,
Where forms are huddled. and faces pale.
As we shake from the night on the grind
ing rail
On Darlington's tangled points we hung.
Then, forth from its myriad mesh We
flung,
All hot on grinding the miles TO naught,
In the grip of the wheels. as with time we
fought
For Who should seize on the foremost
place
In this ssorming charge. while to York we
race,
So onward we shatter. by city and town.
Like Il cataract thund ring forever down,
Til oul, murmur dies in the straining ear,
A thin mist had spread, but. as ii broke,
York doomed, and the tongues of the
Minister spoke,
In a tocsin movement at first. but fast
On its track came the stroke of three, as
a blast
Bursts forth on the heels of faint pre-
lude
From the East in tasseled Northern
wood.
So the hours swept on. but no faster than
In our whirling mist. till the white East
Is far behind us. and London before
Spreads its spectral arms like curving
shore.
To meet the swoop of the storming tide.
But we heard meath the gllmmering
Glasswork wide
As the rim edged up of a blood-red SUM-
y message that grew, I'VE had won, we
had won

corning the dowry are being made, and
Petruchio proposes to draw up the le-
gal papers. Baptista says:
''Ay. when the special thing is We'll OBJ

That is her love: for that is all in all"
Much as he desires to see Kate mar

says nothing at the time. We are TO

Last winter the legislature of Utah
memoriaiized congress to create an
other federal court circuit to embrace
the States of Utah, Wyoming, Colorado,
Idaho and Montana Members of the
bar and leading business men of Utah
are taking steps TO impress upon con-
gress the necessity for such action and,
in all probability, other states included
in the proposed district will take sim
liar steps. These are states in which
there is a class of litigation very cure
to find its way into such court, and
the bulk of it is confined to the inter-
mountain states named. There are pub
lie lands and mineral fields from which
an endless amount Of very heavy liti-
gaticn arises, rendering it announcement
and expensive to travel long distances
to find the tribunal sought. The new
circuit should be created by all means.

There are imperialists so greedy and
grasping that they are in favor of hold
ing Cuba against the wishes of the in
habitants and in violation of our ma
tional pledges. If the administration
falls in with this scheme it will lose an
other block of it's Republican support.
1t has only been a few days since the
New York Mail and Express. an admin
istration organ of great influence in the
east, commented upon the Cuban out
look as follows: There can be no
doubt that the government of the Unit
ed States will demonstrate to the world
the sincerity of the resolution declaring,
in effect, that the purpose of the war
with Spain was not to acquire sover-
eighty over Cuba"

Nor grudge them praise when honor

But loathing more intent than speaks dis

Heaves England's heart when scorn is
