A GREAT MAN IGNoKED.-A number of the
Kansas papers, in denOuncing the appointment
of Crozier, have taken occasion to say that the
appointment of J. X. Hudson would have given
universal satisfaction. Why would itf What
has Hudson ever done, to show his fitness for the
high positiOnf We believe he has a fruit farm
near Wyandotte, and has also made speciality
of raising fine breeds of hogs Many man in
Kansas has raised finer fruit and finer hogs, and
yet does not consider himself qualified for the
Office Of United States Senator. Hudson has
been member of the Legislature several sess-
ions, and has scarcely left his mark to show that
he has been there. Each time great things were
predicted of a Legislature that was so fortunate
as to number }. X. Hudson among its members,
and each time ne served out his fifty days with
cut distinguishing himself above the ordinary
run of Kansas Legislators. Fifty men could be
picked mp in almost any Township in the State,
fully as competent and deserving as J. X. Hud-
son. Kansas is infinitely the gamer in the ap-
pointment that was made. We have nothing
against Huds N, but we don't like to see too
much sugar wasted on an individual who is not
heavy enough to Justify the outlay.

The TRUTH OF HIsToRY.-A majority of th,
papers in the State, that say anything about it
in the effort to make out Judge Crozier to be al
unpopular man, having sympathy with tn.
masses, assert that he was not elected Chief Jus
tice of the Supreme Court by the people, but was
appointed by the Governor, to fill vacancy. II
they are so ignorant of recent Kansas history,
they should not touch it; but if they are not ig-
norant, they should tell the truth. Judge Croz-
ier was not appointed to the bench by the Gov
ernOr. Thomas Ewing, the first Chief Justice,
resigned in the Fall of 1862, to accept a commits
sion in the army, too late to fill the vacancy by
election that year. Gov. Robinson appointed
Nelson Cobb, of Lawrence, Democrat, to the
vacancy, until the next election. In November,
1868, CrOzier was elected by the people, and serv-
ed the remainder Of the term. Judge Kingman
was elected to succeed him, In 1566-Crozer not
being a candidate.
We may mention, in this connection, that Gov.
Robinson, although elected as as Republican,
rarely failed to appoint Democrats to fill vacan-
cies in important offices, during his administra-
ton; and when he did appoint Republicans, he
took such as were about halfway Democrats.

WITNESS FEES IN CRIMINAL CAsEs-It is the

w,rxrss' FEES IN CRIMINAL CAsEs.-It is the
general impression that the County pays all the
costs including witness fees, in criminal cases.
Col. Johnston has just called our attention to a
fact of which we were ignorant, as suppose
mast peopIe are In criminal cases, the County
is authorized to pay only the witnesses ON the
part of the State, and not those for the defence,
except where the defendant is acquitted. If he
is convicted, the County does not pay his witness
fees. The only costs TO be paid for the defend
ant bv the County, is his board-meaning the
Sheriff for the board Of the prisoner while con-
fined in Jail. See Revised Statutes Of 1865, Sec
tion 1928, Article 10, of Chapter o2, on page 572.
Col. Johnston says that the only recourse for
persons summoned as witnesses for the defend
ant in criminal case, is to demand their fees in
mons. We are no lawyer, and do not presume to
dispute the point with the County Attorney; but
we always had pretty strong impression that
when witness was summoned on State case,
he had to go, without any fooling about it. But
witnesses ought to either have a right to demand
their pay in advance, or the County ought to be
responsible for it.
We refer to this matter, because there were
large number of witness fer the defence in the
West case, and other cases, who are anxiously
waiting for the County Board to allow their ac-
counts. Many have sold their accounts to second
parties, and received pay for them. They will
never get them frem the County.
The law also provides that the Prosecuting
Attorney shall not tax the County with costs of
over three witnesses to establish one fact.

for Kansas, proceeds, without giving him an op-

cast ridicule npon him.
