The juniors and seniors of the state
university at Boulder have promulgated a
rule prohibiting freshmen from smoking a
cigar or a pipe on the college campus
The sole reason for such foolish action is
to establish sort of caste distinction be-
tween the different grades of students
A freshman from New Mexico very prop
erly saw no reason why he should no;
smoke on the campus the same as senior
or junior. The result was a fight Such
rules among college students partake Of
the nature of hazing and are productive
of spirit of caste wholly un-Americar.
The Enterprise hopes that in all conflicts
which may arise at Boulder the freshmen
will come out victorious. We suspect that
it would be difficult for the university au-
thorities Of the autocratic students to ex-
PLAN how such class prejudice tends to
promote the requirement Of an education.

n,cks' January Weather.

Rev. III R. Hicks. the weather prophet,
says that the first storm period of Janu-
AIRY will be from the 4th TO the 9th. and
that we may look for severe cold over
most parts OF the country from the 9Th to
! lth. He is emphatic about the severity
Of this cold snap, High temperature for
the season is predicted about the 18th
to be followed by storms of such severity
as will cause great Inconvenience and
suffering TO man and beast. Moderate
weather may be expected from the 22nd
TO Oath. but general winter storms will
be experienced on land and sea during the
last four days in January. There are
thousands Of people in the United States
who have the creates, faith in Mr.. Hicks
forecasts.

work. The above we clip from Miehi-
gan exchange. The advice Is good. hu,

A Denver paper recently tried to make
sensation by pretending to find an old
ae, Of congress which would give to New
Mexico sixty miles along the south line Of
Colorado. This relegates La Jun,s to a
territorial jurisdiction. But the story had
no extensive credenee. The facts are
that tho boundaries Of the state were
settled when Colorado came into the
union. No, only the enabling act, but the
constitution Of the state itself defines the
boundaries and makes the thirty-seven;h
parallel the southern boundary. The con-
stltution with these boundaries named
was accepted by the national government,
and that settled the matter.

One of the first things done by the
newly elected legislature should be the
enactment of law whereby in each
county in the state a grand jury shall
have at least one session in each year
Such a body should convene in Denver
every month. and in counties like Larimer
Weld and Boulder, at least twice year
Such legislation will no doubt be atagon-
lied by certain elements but he would be
pretty brave or foolish man who shout
vote against it in either house or senate
