DIR. CYRUS NoRrHRoP, presid lent Of
the state university, has never for q
moment swavered II his belief that the
interf ference Of the board Of control in
the affairs Of the state university was 8
decided disadvantage to that institu-
tion. He says "the advent Of the board
Of control at the university did not in
the least affect local business, as it did
in other cities. For this reason the
separation is not demanded by local
trade, but by the whole state, for the
peace and successful administration of
the university in the interests Of the
state" he ought TO know if anyone.

The election of a Mormon with plur-
al wives from Utah to the United
States senate is the result anticipated
by those who strenuously opposed the
admission of Utah as q state! Itseems
as if congress would take heed from
the results in the Mormon state and
avert trouble by refusing to admit Ari-
zona and New Mexico until they had
guarantees of proper conditions for &C
ceptable statehood.

The last legislature gave the public
examiner authority to examine the
books Of railroad companies to ascer-
tain whether they are paying taxes on
the total amount Of their gross ;earn-
ings and under this. authority nearly
100000 increased taxes have been un-
earthed. Any attempt TO repeal this
authority is SO manifestly at the sdicta-
tion of the railroads and in their inter-
est that public sentiment will condemn
it, Watch those who favor such q re-
peal. They are false to- the peoples in.

WE are very glad to see defeated the
foolish measure introduced in the legis-
lature providing for state tax to in
sure farmers against cyclones, tor
nadoes and hailstorms. This was
closely related to bill introduced
abolishing the mutual companies in
suring against these disasters. There
is no more reason for the state going
into the hail insurance business than
into fire insurance on all classes Of pro-
perty.
