THE big fellows are talking too
much about prosperity. 1t makes
some of the little fellows uneasy
aud they begin to talk about hay
ing their pay advanced. The tele-
graphers and iiremen, on the line
OF the ID. & r. g., are among
those who feel they ought to have
a share in the prosperity that so
much is said about and have asked
for raise in wages.

A CAREFUL reading OF the
speeches made in congress- ON the
financial bill shows them to be be.
hind the times. The issue pre-.
sented is whether the government
or the banks shall issue and con.
troll the currency of the country.
This issue the democrats dodge
and coniine themselves largely to
the discussion of silver coinage
and gold standard, double stand

HE war in South Africa, if con-
tlnued for any length of time, will
cause n heavy drain on this
country for gold. Euglnnd's chief
supply of the precious metal has
been coming from the Transvaal

cut off and the large expense at
tending the war England will de-
mand gold from the United States,

The State Board of Agriculture,
at its annual meeting held this
month determined upon several
matters looking to tho growth Of
the Agricultural College. Chief
among these advances was the
vote to abandon the Preparatory
Department after June, 1900.
Not only is there question As to
whether the statute clearly pro-
vides for the maintenance of such
u department, but it is evidently
against the moral intent of tho law
for state institution to duplicate
work that is already done in every
part OF the state.
The purpose Of the Board to
give more attention IN the future
to the needs nnd advantages Of tho
stock.raiscr IN Colorado. was put
in n concrete form by voting II,
