PROGRESSIVE EGlSLATION
IN REPUBLICAN WYOMING

Cheyenne, Wyo., Feb. 1.-At the rate
at which county division legislation
is progressing in the legislature it ap
pears probable that it will be dispos
ed of in the next ten days. But be
fore it is disposed of it is probable
that progressive measures, such as
those providing for the initiative and
referendum and recall amendments
to the constitution will have been
forced to the fore, as we'll as the
county option law, which the Anti
Saloon League is pushing.

MYSTERIOUS MALADY


An epidemic in the San Vicente
settlement, Texas, is taking off some
of the best citizens. Since January
- five zig, strong, healthy men have
died, and no one knows what allied
them. They are only ill few days
till death claims them. Tomas
Soils, former Ell Pasonan, who has
relatives still residing there, died this
week. San Vicente is a small settle
ment and there is no physician nearer
than Marathon, which is over 100
miles. The people are in almost desti-
tute circumstances on account of the
drouth and have been unable to raise
anything for the past two years, and
work has been very scarce 1t is
thought that lack of proper food ac-
counts for the most of the sickness
in the place.

formerly practiced in the United

ed a story that His Majesty, while
Prince of Wales, contracted a NOR

OF the British admiral at Malta. Suit
was brought to set at rest for all time
this story involving the king. The

in opening the prosecution, said there
was not the faintest vestige of truth

king was not at Malta in 1890, the year
year in which the alleged morganatic
marriage was cOnsummated, and
was never there after 1888, until af'-
er his marriage with the present
Queen Mary. 1t would also be shown,
he said, that neither the daughter of

cANTEEN GROWS IN FAVOR.

The report comes from Washington
that the army authorities have infor-
nation that the women's Christian
Temperance union will no longer OPP
pose the establishment Of canteens at
military posts. having become con-
WINGED by the experience Of the camps
along the Mexican border-and espe-
cially in Texas-that the absence of
the canteen makes not only for in
temperance. but debauchery generally.
and that it's presence would greatly
tend to sobriety and decency.
The neighborhood Of the san An
tonic maneuver camp is cited as a
striking object lesson in favor of the
restoration OF the army canteen, be-
ing infested with saloons Of the low
est type. where every temptation to
violate the laws of decency and order
Is offered to the soldiers in their hours
Of liberty" The army authorities, Of
course, have no control over these
dives, "where spirits Of the cheapest
and vilest kind constitute by no means
the worst Of the evils" but, owing to
the anti-canteen law, they are preclud-
ed from maintaining as a counter-at-
traction within the camps clean and
orderly resorts where only the best Of
the milder beverages are furnished and
where the profits are devoted TO pro
noting the comfort Of the men by
supplying them with the appurtenances
for amusement and with the means Of
adding some little luxuries to their RAJ
tons.
The news seem too good to be true.

AN IMPORTANT MOVEMENT

The movement for the organization
OF the University of Michigan alumni
into local associations. In connection
with which President Hutchins visited
Marquette, Is one that should work IN
the great advantage of the institution.
IN varied ways. As President Hutchjns
pointed out the university has lost inn
measurably in not having had its 40 =
ooo alumni organized compactly to ad-
vance its interests on every possible
occasion and in every possible way.
There are 10000 alumni i'm Michigan
alone and 1t can readily be seen that
the work OF the associations they will
organize will do much to broaden in
terest In university affairs and to bring
about a wider knowledge OF the uni

versity's call. aud people familiar with
conditions surrounding the support OF
the university can have no diflculty
seeing where IL will be able TO be OF
much use. The primary need of the
university now is. as President Hut
chins pointed out. more income. The
rehabilitation OF the physical plant has
been going on slowly through the past
several years. but there remains much
to be done that should be done very
soon. because the institution is suffer-
ing severely through the lack of prop
err buildings and equipment for some
OF its departments. President Hut
chins particularly regrets the failure
of the legislature TO allow s250OOO for
a new science building. just now badly
needed which the committees refused
to authorize principally because the
financial condition of the state is such
that appropriations were recommended
with an unusually sparing hand

Should, however, II prove TO be--and
result in the repeal OF the anti-canteen
law-the Mexican border army maneu-
vers will have achieved at least one
great good. For the fact has been ir-
refutably demonstrated, TO every un-
prejudlced mind familiar with the con-
ditions, that the army canteen whether

ice, or in national or state soldiers

The public is probably divided on
this dynamite crusade. In such cases
opinion is bound To be formed hastily
and adhered to until the case is settled
one way or the other. Even then some
doubt may remain. There is no ques-
tion that i'm Los Angeles the fight be-
tween capital and organized labor has
been waged strenuously; but IT often
happens that not the participants in
the struggle but the outside sympa-
thizers or ready trouble makers do the
real violent work Neither capital nor
labor can hope to succeed by means Of
lawlessness.
