A FnAsciAL 0PEaArios.-A lev days
since. a quantity of State scrip waa sold
at anc,ion. at Topeka. This scrip WAS
to psy for work on the
State Capitol building; but as the con-
tractors were entitled to their pay 10 cash.
it w.s necessary to sell the State paper
at auction, ct . discount. to raise the
money. Tbsadeus II. Walker was the
purchaser, at 92t cents on the dollar.
This Walker is one of those public cur
ses, land monopolist. He owns thou
sands Of acres of land in various parts Of
the State. and never pays taxes on it
when they are due. In looking over the
papers. during the season of Delinquent
Tax Lists, wherever Walker owns land.
there his name figures extensively in the
Delinquent Lists. Thus. besides with
holding't.1es th.t ere necessary to dsfrsy
the expenses of the State. an additional
expense is entsiled for advertising and
selling the lands. Perhaps the lack OF
money that necessitsted the sale by the
State of its own scrip. Was caused by
such delinquencies as those of Thsddeus
H. Walker; and he took advantage of q
necessity Of his own creating. to specu-
late of of the State. II Walker is the
coming man. Is has been proclaimed.
perhaps it would be q good thing If he
would come at tax-psying time. as well
as when there is an opening for 9 shave

KANSAS PorITIcrASs We find in the
Fort Scott Monitor the statement that
tn. Leagners q. she Neutral Lands have
arrived at the conclusion that the Hon.
Sidney Clarke. whose speeches down in
that region as reported and sworn to BY
them he denies having uttered. is not
quite the sort CT man they thought be
wa. The Monitor says that many of
those who have sworn by him have come
to the conclusion that after sll he is q
dem sgogue, unworthy OF their confidence.
We do not know whether the statements
Of the Monitor are correct, bnt we wonder
that Mr.. Clarke permits such aft isvits
as have been published in disproof Of
his denial to 60 unnoticed. He surely
mnst know that people will be forced to
believe such mass Of testimony against
his unsupported assertion. and he cannot
do the people of Kansas the injustice to
suppose that they will put confidence in
him if. after hearing his denial, they are
forced to believe it completely disproved.
We have no part in any Of the quarrels
which divide Kansas politicians. and are
neither for nor against any man, bot try to
consult the interests OF the people. and
are therefore free to say thst unless Mr..
Clarke can sa,isfsctorily meet those state.
