NO SUMMER QUARTER.
Announcement made by the Acting
President that the Project will be
Abandoned.

There will be no summer quarter
at the University this sgnsn er.
That is the announcement made by
President Reynolds acting President
Of the institution. 1t had been an
nounced some time ago that the
quarter would be held but that only
six weeks would be taught.
At the last session of the legisla-
ture that body did not appropriate
any money for the summer quarter
and acted adversely on it being held
at all This was taken to mea n
that the people OF the state did not
want any summer quarter
1t was proposed that the faculty
should teach for nothing but the
point was raised that it made no
difference about the cost that the
people did not want any SUNNI er
quarter under any circnmstanc es
and the plan was abandoned.
Ia consequence any one who h nd
decided to come here this SUNNI er
may save himself the trouble as
there will be no school

enees with Governor Taylor prior to
the assassination. The witness said
Ripley told him he was in the exec
utive office tho day before the shoot
ing, and complained to Taylor be

said" declared the witness.
Judge w. Fl. Yost, associate counsel

ate chamber and come out with Goe-
bel and see that he is not hurt or In.

Culton and others and send them to
me-"
He said: Goebel is not going to
be hurt Culton and Finley told me
3 1t was a fake and that there was
nothing in it. They condemned VIC

"Why did you send for Culton,
Finley and the other menu
Because | thought they knew the
mountain men,"

time.

for him, said Ripley. Will did not

the witness.
Witness stated that the next day,
when he tried to telephone to Frank
fort, some one was calling Eminence
and that the person at the Frankfort
end of the telephone said that he was
General Collier, and that he wanted
Ripley. Witness did not know that
Ripley went to Frankfort upon the
day before or the day of the shoot
ing, but does not think he did

HoMA DEMOCRACY.
If Governor jenkins report to the
secretary Of the interior is true, and
he speaks by the official records
there is something seriously wrong
in the politics of this territory, and
it demands the highest attention and
closest scrutiny of the territorial
Democracy. The governor says in his
report that there are $40 county Office
holders in the territory, of which 10
are Republicans. 14S Democrats, 81
ropulIsts and 20 Fusonists.
The ratio Of county Democratic Of
nciceholders shows that the party can,
il honest politics prevail in the county
elections, elect its delegate to con
gress without the slightest trouble.
1t shows another thing, and that is,
tnat there has been something rotten
in the party somewhere in previous
elections. It shows further, that on
strictly party vote, taking this
statement as a guide to the strength
of the two parties, that the Democrats
have an excess in county officers OF
3S. and by adding the Populists and
Fusionists an excess of 80. But sup
pose that now there will be no third
party. and conceding to the Repub
lllcans one-half Of the ratio as repre-
sented by the Populists and Fusion
lists county officers, a most libera
concession, the ratio of the rea
strength of the Democrats and Repub
lican politics. as represented by this
table Of the governors will be as ~
to 1873, or 81 in favor Of the Demo
Gratis
OF course this mode of speculation
upon the strength Of the two partle
naturally invite objections, and it ma,
be alleged that, and not without ap
parent reason, that big Republican
majorlties in few of the countie
affect small Democratic majorities Il
many OF the Democratic counties, bu
upon a little reflection this objection
will be found not good, for while tn
Democratic county ticket in thes
counties were elected by large ma

lor congress barely pulled through
This shows conclusively that wher
