WHAT rs EXPECTED BY THE,
PEOPLE

Much interest centers in the meeting
which takes place at Topeka to-day be-
tween the representatives of the carry
ing corporations of the state and the
board of Kansas railway commissioners.
The conference was called at the IN
stance of the railroad men, and if they
enter into the discussion Of the points
involved with the fairness which has
characterized the action of the commits
sioners, we believe that good results
may he secured. The people of Kansas
demand no step which will work
hardship To the railroads. They
have been generous in their gra-
taities to the corporations which have
assisted in the development of the coun-
try and opened up market for the pro-
ducts of the state. They desire that the
roads should reap a fair return on the
capital witch they have invested, but
they object to the extOrtion which has
been practiced in many cases to secure
the payment of big dividends on water.
cd stock, and will not submit longer to
this species of imposition. The i'm
mense Capitalization of wealth among
the railroad magnates of the coun-
try furnishes abundant evidence
of the vast earnings of the railways
under existing regulations, and the ar
guments advanced by the managers that
a reduction of rates would reduce their
receipts below the standard of q Profita.

the results which stand confessed to the
public in the way Of princely salaries
paid TO ornamental officials and the ex
travagant employment of money on the
part of the railroads to Influence ;legis
lation in their behalf
The adjustment OF the relations be
tween the people and the corporations
is grave question, but it is one whose
solution. cannot be much longer defer.
rcd in this state, and it Is fast assuming
the phase OF national issue. The pres
ent temper OF the Kansas people in thiI
regard is one of moderation, and theI
have shown every disposition TO arrive
at an amicable understanding with the
railroads, and avoid, If possible, an antag
onism of interests between which there
exists a mutual dependence. If the
rupture comes it will be precipitated BY
the railroads and the result can be esilI
foretold. 1t is very certain that thu
corporations are the creatures OF thu
state, and that the people
if driven to the ne
ccssity, will find some sDeedy and effec
tual means for their regulation on I
basis which will subserve the ends o
justice and afford redress for the griev.
ances which have been suffered in 81
many instances by the patrons of tn
railroads. We believe that the commls
sioners know what is expected Of then
by the people, and that they will act il
accordance with that knowledge

The result has awakened all the old

Republicans and puts the party in
splendid shape for sweeping victory
next year. 1t shows what the Republi-
cans here. can do when they unite in
an earnest and hearty effort TO win. and
indicates that measure Of harmony
prevails in the ranks of the party which
has not existed for some years.
The canYass was conducted with sd-

were made, the central committe was
fully alive To the lmnortance
Of the issue and forwarded the ends of
success by wise and energetic measures
all along the line.
The NEWS takes especial pleasure in
the result, IS it believes that the ticket
was one of the best ever placed in nom-

day of the convention up to the time OF
the closing of the polls last night labored
diligently for its election. There
is no excuse for electing

WHAT ISHOUJD re DONE.

The shocking tragedy Of last Satur-

who can utilize q clue with the best

1PMY TITLES

We think there was mistake in the
dispatch that Lieut. Gen. Sheridan will
assume the rank of general of the army.
The two titles of general and lieutenant
general are not acquired by regular
promotion like others in the army. They
require special act OF congress in each
case. When Grant was elected presi-
dent his first nomination was that of
Lieutenant General Sherman to the
rank of general. 1t was understood last
winter that upon the retirement of Gen
eral Sherman Lieutenant-Ge General Sheri-
dan would he nominated for general and
Major general Hancock for lieutenant
general by the president. This will
probably be done on the meeting OF
congress. In the meantime while
Sheridan will be commander of the
army, his rank will be that of lieutenant.
