better attended this year than ever
before. The upper classes which were
few in numbers during the first years
are filing up as the students advance
from lower grades
The commencement exercises are
of high order and speak volumes for
the refinement and culture of Oklaho-
ma. But it is the pride of our colleges
that they not only generally educate,
but as well fit young men and women
for specific duties; in other words, for
bread winning. II is an-easy matter
to pass young people through a college

COMMENCEMENT WEEK.

This is the week OF college com
mencements in Oklahoma colleges.
Forth from the ideal world brayely
comes the young graduate full Of
hope, faith and courage Oklahoma
is proud of her colleges and welcomes
to the active, progressive life, which
Is peculiarly her own, these scholarly
and refined young ladies and gentle
men.
The development in the four col
leges OF Oklahoma has more than
kept pace with the wonderful develop
ment Of the territory.
The normal schools are doing a
great work in fitting young men and
women for work in the common
schools.
There are now nearly one thousand
students enrolled in the Edmond and

A Colorado Summer.

The Santa Fe has issued q new edi
zion for 1902 of its book entitled, "A
Colorado Summer" A big edition has
been printed for Eastern circulation.
Besides a description of Colorado 5
principal resorts, there are chapters
devoted to camping out, fishing and
hunting, also an article on Salt Lake
City-all profusely illustrated.
The summer service of the Santa
Fe to Colorado will be better than
ever this season. In addition to stand

commodious chair cars, the Colorado
trains will be equipped with new day

THE COST THAT
sTAoGERs HUMANITY.

THE COST THAT
STAGGERs HUMANITY.
The British nation showed a small
appreciation of the magnitude of their
undertaking in the Boer war General
Butler boasted he would eat his Christ
mas dinner two years ago in Pretoria.
Instead he came near getting no din
ner At all on the Turgala. Old Dom
Paul Kruger showed a better appre-
citation of the cost CT extinguishing
liberty in his famous remark that it
would be at price that would stag
ger humanity"
The final summary OF the war has
not been made but it will likely read
for England $4,000 men and 81 500 ,OOO,-
OOU The money cost at once wipes
out the savings of a century for Eng
land. Generally they have small
sympathy from the nations for their
money but one can hardly think of the
vacant seats at the tables of Britain
without sigh while the ruined homes
and helpless hopeless condition of the
brave Beers moves the heart of the
coolest.
Two very important and unusual
concessions are made in the Boer
peace terms, The Beers are not to
be taxed with the cost OF the war and
are to receive sl5,OOO,OOO to repair
their farms.
The final accurate accounting of the
cost will be a matter Of very corsid-
/ cradle interest to the world at large
and perhaps when the British have set
tied the bills their sense of loss may
be even more acute than it is at pres
ent. There are few things that touch
the Britons heart more keenly than .
rap at his pocket book.
The Immediate financial losses and
losses in military prestige constitute
only smaller portion of the entire
loss when the internal complications
and commercial and industrial losses
are reckoned with.

LARGEST FOREIGN EMIGRATION.

LARGEST FOREIGN EMIGRATION.
There has been tendency to ignore
the once much discussed question OF
foreign emigration. Many doubted
the ability of the United States to as
simulate and Americanize the vast in
hux OF foreigners that poured into this
country twenty years ago. But so ac-
customed has this country become to
making good American citizens out OF
people of foreign birth that the an
nouncement from the immigration
bureau that their report for the fiscal
year ending June 3Cth. 1902, win show
the largest immigration Of any previ
GUS year. has created scarce a ripple
of excitement.
The grand total promises to run over
100000 while the largest immigration
for any preceding year was 5000
These figures point strongly toward
the ultimate domination of the English
speaking race headed by the Ameri
can nation.

The people of Cuba, according to
an observer who has recently been
among them, can not understand the
attitude Of our congress in refusing to
grant them a modest concession at
this critical period of their national
history" If the people of Cuba Will
consider that our congress refuses to
grant modest concessions for the relief
of tn people OF this country their sur
prise will not be so great. Congress
is legislating neither for the benefit
of the Cubans nor of the people of the
United States. but for the profit Of
protected trusts and monopolies.
