The bank, at a meeting held last night
decided that a temporary suspension

Capital State Bank of Idaho. at the
request of the directors. and give 1t
as my firm opinion that the bank Is
solvent, and that the assets are suff-
cient to pay the depositors every dol
lar that is due them"
The Capital State bank has capital
stock of 100000, a reserve of $780,
900. and deposits at the time of the
last statement, Dec. 90. of S1,076.-
1885. Before the financial troubles
began, the deposits amounted to about
Sl,25O,O00. For the past two months
reports have been in circulation re-
fiecting on the stability of the insti

itors.

case, is the problem confronting him.
The new executive is an advocate Of
science, and 1t is asserted that to the
present list of courses VIII be added
one or more one of which will proba-
bly, be chemistry. The courses now
given are of the much dinerent type
as will be seen by the following list:
Literae Humanorum classical course),
English Language and literature.
mathematics, modern languages and
oriental languages.
y movement is developing among
the alumni holding masters degrees TO
abolish the entrance requirement or
Greek. There has been sentiment in
favor of this, but 1t has only recently
grown strong enough to state that 1t
viii soon be abolished. The only
strenuous objection is now on the part
of the clergy who belong TO this gov
erning body.
Baltzar jacobson, the first candidate
selected from Utah and the only one
who has returned reports that degree
in England is of SPECIAL value in that
country because OF the social distlnc-
ton IL gives and because the civil SER
vice appointments are awarded almost
exclusively TO the graduates. However.
those who secure the degree merely for
the distinction take what is known as
the Pass Degree" while those who
desire a scholarship standing enter
for the Honor Degree The differ
eIlce is in the amount OF work required.
Those who "go in as the students
term it, for the honor" are required
TO take a six-day examination while the
others may take the examination as
they complete the courses. Students
going In for both degrees must take
the Divinity Moderations," which Is
an examination on two of the books
of the Bible from Greek and tests on
some of the gospels.
The sports in the English colleges,
according to Mr.. jacobson, are su-
perior to the American for exercise and
training. There is a decided objection
to any faint OF professionalism, and
very little spirit to win no matter at
what effort.
Nearly all of the students enter one
of the sports. Every one of the col
leges enters rowing team and has a
rowing club. They play the Association
and Rugby football, which are charac-
teri2ed as better for the training and
exercise. Hockey Is popular as is the
Canadian game of lacrosse.
Mr.. jacobson and Robert Hartley
were both admitted to Exeter one of
the most desirable colleges. The form
er took the modern language course
specializing In the German, while Mr.
Hartley is studying mathematics.

Hopeless. the cage in til. desert
Ages and ages ago
Was strumming it's tune, December and
June
Wherever the winds might blow
Forsaken the desert and painless
The lizard bathed in the sun
And the hawk Ger head and the carrion
dead
And the hops of the sage were one.
But strong the steel of the farmer
And keen the edge OF hts blade
When he took his stock as the steam plow
talked
And the measureless acres were made
Made in the JOY of harves
Golden with folded whea
While the winds that know sing soft and
low
OF the wonderful desert in sleep.

A sURFEIT OFLAws.

YEARLY cries the New Haven
Register: "Oh, the lAwlessness
of law-making! Oh, It's constant,
never-ending increase! When will
our legislative bodies learn that
one good purpose which they serve
is to sift the chaff from the wheat
among the laws, and put the chsff
where it will no longer clog the
wheels of progress? One is some
times constrained tc cry out for
one inf1exible law that will forbid
the enactment of any more law for
at least ten years.
There are too many laws, Fed
eral and State, out the output
goes on undiminished. The legis-
lative acts for each session are
longer than the code, the Federal
laws are 80 numerous no one man
can know what they are, and the
citizen must be a lawyer il order
to know when he is or is not vio-
lating the law. The most igno-
rant member of the legislature
feels it his duty, at least to the
interest of his reputation and
chance of reelection, to introduce
at least a halls dozen bills, and to
get at least one of them enacted
into law. In congress the small
member has not much chance to
get bill passed, but he introduces
bills by the armfui.
Too much law begets lawless-
ness. Foolish laws are not en-
forced, and there is more or less
disrespect for all law. There is no
foretellihg what direction the
legislative mania will take. This
year it may be moral reform, next
year warfare on corporations, and
the year after regulation of per-
sonal rights and religious liberty.
Whatever happens to be the lead
ing topic of conversation at the
time, furnishes the subject of legis.
