Denver Tribune, IL


John James Ingalls,, of Atchison, was
Yesterday re elected Senator from Kansas
for the term Of six years. From the first
the campaign has been very bitter one
and, at one time, it locked as If the anti
Ingalls, men would win the victory. Every
device that malice and falsehood could util
ize against him was brought into play, and
charges of the most fisgrGnt nature Were
NJ ade with a freedom. menG2ciiy and reck
lessness scarcely parsIeiled in the history ot
poIItic'. Ingalls, triumph is well-esrned
one. Defeat would have been political
death for him, and We congratulate him or
escaying such a Premature fate. lie is q
gentleman Of culture and education, he.
s=rved the people of Kansas we'll, and viii
continue to represent their Interests in :
thoroughly practical way. His opponents
changed front on the electing ballot, and
concentrated all their strength on Chief
Justice Horton. who received seventy-uine
votes to Iugalls' eighty-siI. Eighty-fiv
were necessary for an election.
Mr.. ingalls, has been resident of Kan.
sas for tweuty-one years, having emigrated
there in 1858, during the territorial days
He WAS born at Middletown, Massachusetts
in 1888, and graduated at Williams Col
lege in the class of 30 His frs, public
trust was as a member OF the Wyandotte
Constitutional Convention in 1859. From
that time forward he combined law and
politics He was made Secretary OF the
Territorial Council in 1S60, Secretary OF
the Senate in the following year, and in
1862 he was member Of the State Senate
from Atchison county. During the came
wear he was defeated as the antiLane candi-
date for Lieut. Gov. and two years later he
was again defeated for the same Office. For
three years he was editor Of the Atchison
champion" and, after retiring from
journalism, he resumed the practice OF law.
He was frat elected to the United States
Senate in 1873, TO succeed $. G. Pomeroy,
and an exciting episode which took place
in that contest hss served TO keep ingalls,
and Pomeroy on terms OF political enmity
ever since.
Mr.. Ingalls, ia brilliant speaker-in-
deed, he may almost be called an orator
and has done some good party work. He
is a man of keen perceptions, OF laborious
habits, and useful either upon the floor OF
in the committee-room.

We do not want Uncle Sam ito strap
himself 30 that he cannot pay current
bills, but We do not see the necessity of $780,.
000. 900 or 30 in his pants pockets at a
time. When We haye had that amouu,
about our clothes We have often been
tempted to take square meal, when ar
oyster stew and sandwitch would have an
s~ered as well. Millions tied up handy in
little bags make millions anxious to invent
methods to get away with them. "Lead u.
not into temptation," is a mighty good
prayer for a nation as well as i,s individual
members.

Pecuntary Embarras.menss Of Arch.
bishop Purcell.
rChIcaoo Tribune

Further examination into the eptaugled
finances of Archbishop and Bishop Purcell
at Cincinnati, reveals a most unfortunate
and deplorab!e prospect for the creditors,
mainly persons whose hard savings from
meagre wages were deposited with the two
prelatrs. Claims 10 the amount of over 81, :
600 600 have already been presented, and
the liabilities of the Archbishop will ag.re
gate not less than 81 ,250,000. The proper
ty in the hands Of the Trustees TO meet
these demands has a market valGe Of not
more than 100000, and other means will
have to be forthcoming with which to liqui-
date all claims. While there is no hint Of
any reflection upon the integrity of the
venerable Catholic dignitary, there is man
ifested among the creditors considerable
impatience at the delay to which they are
subjected, and threats of suits are begin
ming to be heard.

One OF the Credfsable Events Of Cur
rent Politics.

The reelection of Senator ingalls,, in
Kansas, is one of the creditable events OF
current politics. As We said three months
sgo, the only argument" against him was
the desire of Mr.. S. c. Pomeroy to ''get
even" with him for his part in the exposure
of six years ago. We have all along re.
garded Mr.. Pomeroy's interference in the
matter as a sublime piece of cheek, and we
are glad to be able to record its fitting re-
buke in the election of Mr.. Iugalls. Mr..
Pomeroy will find out before long that the
politics Of Kansas can be very successfully
run" without him. He will have to take
q .ck seat

and will make brilliant Senator. The
enginery of abuse, calumny and villi6cs-

strangely uninfuential sheet, the Kansas

damaging effect to the opposition, whose
mouth-piece it was. The sheet can now

FELONIOUs As WELL As POLITE.
CAL.

Referring to the fact that large num-
Der Of the bulldozers and ballot-box suffers
in the Southern States are being brought to
justice, the Chicago Tribune says:
They call them political" prisoners down
in New Orleans when steamboat-losds OF
persons arrive who have been arrested fol
violating the election laws. From the fact
that these parties have been held in $500 bail
for future appearance, and considering tina,
parties in Florida guilty OF the same kind o
crime have been sentenced 10 from one to
three years imprisonment, il would seem &c
the non Democrats mind that there Is some
thing felonious as well as political" IN thess
violations OF law.
