Hon. Thomas RYAN.

Burlington Patriot.
Wednesday the quiet, unassuming
member from the Third Congress
sionsl District, paid our city brief
visit and received q warm welcome
from many of our business men dur
ing his short stay here. Probably
no new member ever won his way
so rapidly to the fore in a Democrat
ic House of Representatives as this
gentleman, whose good Judgment
and perseverance have won encom1-
ums from his constituents on all
sides. During his short term in
congress not less than twenty-five
new mail routes have been establish
ed by his efforts, and Topeka has
reason to thank him for $4,000 for
government buildings, while the
great Arkansas Valley has received
an appropriation for a survey of the
Arkansas river for purposes of
navigation. We have never had a
member more useful to his consti-
tuents during his first term, and If
meritorious services entitle q man
to anything he will be nominated on
the first ballot at Wichita. This
large congressional district cannot
afford to repeat the lesson of two
years ago by turning out q faithful
member on two years trial unless
they want to completely destroy the
influence OF congressman. Of his
opponent we have nothing to say
except he holds a snug position on
the bench, and should have the good
sense to remain there during the
lperiod he was elected for.

Col. St. John

1t is now definitely announced that
Col. st. John, Of OIathe, will go before
the Republican State convention as q can
didate for Governor. Although strongly
pressed to do so in the outstart, he refus-
ed until the demand OF his friends was
such that he could no longer withhold
his name. Col. st. John was before the
convention two years ago, and his sup
port was so strong and enthusiastic that
he came near being nominated. After the
convention his course was so manly and
generous as to attract general attention.
He pulled OF his coat and went into the
campaign, and being one of the ablest
stumpers In the State. did able and eff
Gent service throughout the State for the
Republican ticket. He has warm friends
in all sections OF the State who will rally
to his support this time, and in his own
section his following will be even more
unanimous than two years ago. There is
no doubt OF the ColonePs ability and
popularity, and his nomination would be
hailed with delight and enthusiasm In ali
quarters Of the State.

A Straight Issue.

There are various indications that
some very respectable citizens of
this county have been induced by
requests from Gov. Geo. T. AnthO-
ny and his friends, to throw their
personal standing and influence
here into the campaign for his sake,
and that they propose to use their
entire influence in carrying Lyon
county for him, both in regard to
sending Anthony delegates to the
State convention, and electing MEN,
bers of the legislature who can be
depended on when the time comes,
to support him for the United States
Senate. If only the governorship
was involved, the matter might net
be so serious but the people of this
county cannot afford to be indif-
ferent to this programme when the
question of the United States Sena-
tOrship is necessarily linked with it.
Ii gentlemen choose, out of person.
al friendship for Gov. Anthony, and
sympathy for his political fortunes,
to throw their personal weight
into the CANVASS to aid him in car
rying this county, they must rea-
sonably expect that the issue thus
raised will be met on its merits, and
that the campaign will be an anti
Anthony one, in which their per-
sonal good qualities and qualifica-
tons for Office will be disregarded,
and the issue decided for or against
Anthony himself. The people of
Lyon county will consider it very
thin proposition that they should
submit to the election of Anthony
delegates and Anthony members OF
the legislature, simply because re-
spectacle and estimabIe gentlemen
consent to let their names be used
in that interest. The only course
for the people to take in such q
canvass is to ignore personal claims,
and vote for or against the Antho-
ny interest, and if gentlemen insist
on representing that interest, they
must not be disappointed at the re-
suit at the polls.

Tom RYAN.

We have watched the campaign
with tolerable care, 80 far, and have
not heard q single good reason urg-
cd why our Congressman, Hon.
Thomas Ryan, should not DO re-
turned for a second term. His op-
ponent is good man, but holds the
position of Judge, which he should
retain. He is q young man, and
there 10 plenty of time for him. We
believe the practice of changing
Congressman every term greatly in
furious to the district, especially
when the incumbent does his duty,
and therefore we think that Mr..
Ryan, in all fairness and justice, is
entitled to the support of this coun-
ty in the coming congressional con-
vention.

The Press and the GOvernOrship.


Tho question of the governor
ship has aroused more interest and
discussion this year than is usual in
q State campaign, and the press has
given a fuller expression of its
views and preferences upon the
subject than is generally the case.
Nearly every paper in the State has
spoken out, and as rule their opin-
ions have been unqualified. The
papers supporting Mr.. Anthony do
not assail the reputation of or fight
John A. Martin, the leading candi-
date against him, for there is no
ground for consistently doing SO.
Martins public record and private
life is invulnerable and his ability
is unquestioned. The papers advo-
eating Mr.. Martins candidacy are
quite enthusiastic over IL. They
are ardent admirers of the man
who came to Kansas tWenty-one
years ago 9 poor printer and rose
by his indefatigable industry and
untiring zeal to the high Journals
tic position he now occupies. Their
admiration naturally goes out for
one who not only made q brave
soldier in defense of his common
country, but who has labored for
years to promote the development
and welfare of his adopted State.
The support John A. Martin is
awarded from the press of Kansas
for Governor Isl as warm, sincere
and unselfish as any candidate ever
received for such position. They
feel that he is worthy of the posi-
ton, that he would make Q strong
and popular Governor, and that If
nominated his name would add,
not take away, votes from the Re-
publican party. 1t is natural that
the press should favor the nomina-
ton of q man for Governor this
fall whose name would arouse some
whose doubtful rec
ord they would not be forced to de-
fend and apologize for-for the
simple reason that they are tired Of
apOlogizing. The press have q
right to insist upon the nomination
of candidates of average populari-
ty at least, If they are known to be
competent and efficient men. The
papers bear the brunt Of the politi-
cal battles-fght them in fact-and
there is no justice in expecting edi-
tors TO compromise their fndepend-
enee and personal feeling every

During the last twenty vears q

During the last twenty years 314
murderers have been sentenced to
the State penitentiary of Illinois.
OF these ninety were to be impris-
oned for life, forty-four for twenty
years and upward, the remainder
for sherter terms. The records
show that one hundred of these have
been deliberately pardoned out of
the penitentiary, 81 have been dis
charged in other ways, 81 have died
or gone to the insane asylum, leav-
ing but 13l still under imprison-
ment. Three years and six months
in penitentiary has been the average
punishment for Illinois murderers.
These facts are suggestive ones.
