make their purchases, but the indiyi- dual transactions make their own prices, within certain limits. which limits are of course determined by broad market conditions. The New York Metal exchange has been some- what of joke, and it will remain so, if the large producers and the mar keting agencies continue their oppo- sition to speculation in the metal, since they apparently have the power to conduct their own negotiations direct with consumers. who are themselves buyers in large lots.
 It would be an advantage to the small producers of copper ore and the small copper producers if an open market were created and authoritative quotations, based upon speculative influences, were daily recorded. More over, it would tend to prevent unwar- ranted and arbitrary prices, which in the end are injurious to the large mines as we'll as small. The chances are, however, that the concentration of ownership among the mines and smelters will place the copper business more and more in the position which the Steel trust imposes upon it's line of trade.-Denver Mining Record.

College RufHanism.

Middletown Transcript
Thursdays papers tell us Of threat
ened recurrence at Delaware College
OF the class ruffianism, which many
years ago resulted in a deplorable trag-
edy there, and worked infinite harm
for many years TO that institution.
This cultivated brutality upon the part
OF these young gentlemen. who are
spending the hard earned money OF
their parents. and who by reason of
the advantages they enjoy. should be
expected TO exhibit superior rather than
inferior manners is totally without ex-
cuse.
We trust the College authorities will
ruthlessly nip in the bud the whole
silly business of hazing. assaulting and
kidnapping lower classmen, breaking
up banquets, etc.
The attempt to import into this
state the ruffianly practices which have
repeatedly disgraced the U. of p.
should be suppressed instantly and at
any cost. even II need be of a whole
sale dismissal OF the entire offending
class. About a year ago Kuglers res
taurant on Chestnut street, Philadel-
phia, was attacked and sacked by a
mob OF sophomores from the u. of p

THE PRESIDENTS VETO.

a DECISION as to the action to be taken
by the House, with regard to the census
bill vetoed by the President, may not be reached
uutil Tuesday or Wednesday. The delay is due
to a desire to have the largest possible attendance
when the matter is submitted to the House
A canvass of the Congressman is being taken
to learn how much strength can be mustered in
an attempt to pass the bill over the Presidents
veto. The action to be taken will depend upon
this canvass and the temper of the Senate. One
member of the committee said today that New
England would vote by a large majority to sus-
tain the President; that New York would be
divided, and that he expected a majority OF the
Ohio and Pennsylvania members to favor the
overthrow of the vote.
If the two-thirds vote necessary to pass the
bill, despite the Presidents objections, cannot be
mustered, there is a strong probability that the
matter will be allowed to rest until the special
session in March, when new bill will be passed
and put up to President Taft for signature.

People are accustomed to talk of
crimes as a terrible thing and say that
the son has fallen dreadfully when he
has not fallen at all. He was raised
that way. Right here in this county
some fathers and mothers are educat-
ing their children in the requirements
of first class devils. OF course they
do not mean TO do so but they are
none the less. BOYS are let run wild,
are let carouse in the streets until af-
ter midnight and never put to work
1t is as natural for the idle boy 20 go
to the bad as it is for them to live
The influence is that way. Instead OF
the pure God hallowed atmosphere OF
home many boys are let breathe the
unwholesome air Of a crowd Of smok.
ers and listen to the oaths sworn more
often than prayers are offered at home.
Parents are responsible for their boys
and should surround them with at
tractive home influences. Train a boy

there; let him go wild and his as.
sociates will be anything but good.

And consider things more suavely,

And talk # over, words are tanner,
For you may Increase your trouble
And your nose let out bubble.
Don't start out in rage. dear lady.

Acts your hubby has been doing,
Things you hear he's been pursuing,
And of which you've Ions suspected.
Acts that ought TO be detected,
For these things he does may hurt you
And revenge for outraged virtue

Every home has sorrow in Il.
