John Francis.

We are glad the Governor has had the
wisdom to appoint so good man as
John Francis to be State Treasurer. He
is the only man in the State who ever
discharged the duties of that office just
as the law directed. He is the only man
who could have brought that Department
out of the chaos in which it was found
two years ago. Hefeduced the business
of the Treasurer's Office to perfect sys-
TEN. His report to. the Legislature shows
perfect knowledge of the wants of the
Office, and pointed out the legislation
which would meet them all. No friend
could ever get favor of John Francis
which would interfere with his duty to
the State, and no foe but could get all
the law gave him. He is among the
best of business men and the embattle-
ment of honesty. His defeat stands
charged to the credit of those who
bolted the Republican convention one
year ago, for with them he would have
been nominated. We congratulate the

The Saline Valley Register (Lincoln
county )calls attention to the following :
1t is a curious fact that when the
wind blows for several consecutive hours
from the north, in this portion of the
country, that the water in our wells is
lowered, and in some cases, almost emp
emptied, and when the wind blows from
the south for few hours they are as
rapidly refilled. We are free to confess
that we are ignorant as to the cause of
this, and would like to have some of our
scientific readers to give us an explana.
ton of the matter.

Among the most important PROPOSE.
tions submitted to the present Congress.
and aside from the appointment of the
committees and the introduction of bills
and resolutions there has been but little
else done-is the one by Mr.. Blaine pro-
viding that "no State shall make any
law respecting the establishment of re-
Iigion and prohibiting free exercises
thereof; and that no money raised by
taxation by the States for the support of
public schools, or derived from any pub
lie fund thereof or any public lands de-
voted thereto, shall ever be under the
control of any religious sect, and that no
money of lands SO devoted shall be di.
vided among religious sects or demon
nations"

After an examination of the court
records the Eureka Herald is satisfied
that the great bulk of taxes are the
result of absurd and useless litigations.
The Atchison Champion endorses the
statement, and says that in response to
the cry of heavy taxation the Legislature
reduces the fees and salaries of county
officers-some of them to unreasonable
fgures-but that the saving thus affected
is a mere bung-hole saving; while the
judicial and other expenditures are the
spigots left wide open. The Champion
says that during the fourteen years since
Kansas was admitted into the Union the
total cost of the offices of Governor, Secre-
tary of State, Auditor, Treasurer and
Superintendent of Public Instruction,
amounts to 1886. 1868; while the ex-
pense of the State judiciary for the
same period amounts to $3.50, $40. 10.
And this large expenditure it says is
small compared with the cost of sustain
ing the courts. One example cited by
the Eureka Herald was case in that
county that grew out of fuss about a
pig, the costs of which so far amounts to
SSl245, and the Supreme Court yet to
hear from. In view of the fact that an
investigation shows that the expensive
jury trials are cases appealed from JUS
tices of the Peace, the Champion makes
the following suggestion:
Here is work for the Legislature, and
if that body could devise some plan to
put a stop to Useless iii sation, to prevent
this carrying up" of unim?,rtaas cases
to the District and Supreme Courts, and
to compel Iuarrcl-,ma people to pay the
expense of their own litigation, noun
famous burden would bs lifted from the
backs of taxpayers. The trouble has
always been, we think, that the lawyers
in the Legislature have framed our laws
with view tn fees and business for
themselves. Have we not one lawyer in
the Legislature nnseiish and honest
enough to go to work and devise some
plan whereby this enormous cost of lit
CATION can be cut off
