a Kansas Law.

Our Kansas friends complain of the
disadvantage of having the State,
county and township elections all on
the same day. AS it is, there is SO
much interest taken.in some precincts.
over minor offices, that the most i'm
portant ones are neglected and traded
Off For instance, we have heard Of
candidates for road supervisor trading
on the Presidential and Gubernatorial
ticket. The law changing the time
for township elections was very un-
wise, and should be repealed.-St.
Joseph Herald.
The law in question was passed
with view to reduce the number of
elections. But while it is good
change in this respect, it has the effect
stated by the Herald. and the evils re-
sulting from it are very serious. A
man running for some unimportant
township Office will trade the Prcsi-
dencv to secure votes for himself.

A Slaughter Of $4,000 Bulgarians.

Bulgaria has on several occasions fig

rociiies no less horrible than those
lately committed by the Bashi Baz-

VI was nicknamed "Bnlgaroktones'
because he ordered 1900 Bulgarian
prisoners to have their ewes put out, a
few Only being left with one eye in
order that they might guide their fell
low-prisoners back to their homes.
Even more atrocions was the massacre
of the Gothic settlers in Bulgaria. The
much praised Emperor Claudius ii
gives the following account of this
massacre We have destroyed 800, 600
Goths and sunk 1000 ships. The riv-
ers are coveaed with shields, their
banks with spears and spikes. aud the
fields with bones no road is free from
blood; the huge barricade of wagons
is deserted !: and we have captured so
many women that each.of our conquer
ing soldiers can take two or three for
his share"
