PERSONAL AND POLITICAL.

The people want Col Jno. 4. Martin
for governor of Kansas. We are not so
clear as to the politicians.
1t would be somewhat remarkable if
the national convention should nomin-
ate Blaine and Lincoln, two members of
President Garfield's cabinet. 1t squints
mighty strongly that way just now.
The Buckeye delegation to Chicago
stands as far as kpown, Blame %; John
Sherman IA. 1t is indeed time to reflect
upon the mutations of politics when
the maternal instinct in Ohio begins to
fail.
Sam Wood will now draw his pay as a
contestant for Judge Peters seat in con-
gress, the very thing THE News always
maintained he started in for when he
concluded to run for congress. His pay
will he more than he could have made
IN any other way. and hence he is ahead.
Senator Edmunds, though he is said
to make a great deal of money as q law
yer, is not counted in Burlington, where
he lives, as worth over 100000. Ed
munds has been in the senate some time
1t is fashionable now for a man to be
worth more than that before he goes tc
the senate.
The Kansas City Times thinks that
the election of Judge Field to the pres
idency would 60 great way toward re-
storing the government to its primitive
simplicity. We believe it must be ad
mltted that a Democratic victory next
fall would put the couutrY hack at Least

THE SANTA FE ROUTE TO MEX.

THE SANTA FE ROUTE TO MEN

The Mexican Central railroad was
completed in March, but the formal
opening will take place on May 3, the
Mexican fourth OF July. Trains are
running oyer the road, but the Mexicans
wished to 'get good ready" and open
the road In grand style on their great
national holiday. An immense crowd
went to see the first train leave the City
of Mexico. and the inhabitants are very
much elated over their prospects. The
treaty between the two republics will be
q material aid in the development of
their commercial intercourse. A great
deal of building is being done in the
City OF Mexico and people of every
class have much confidence in the de-
velopment OF an extensive trade with
the United States del Norte. The great
cities along the line, Chihuahua, Zacate-
cas-, Guarajato, Leon and the rest, already
enjoy street cars, electric lights and tel
ephones and are eagerly looking for
ward to an extensive commerce with this
nation. With populations ranging from
10000 to 10000 people, these cities will
evidently be great commercial centers
under the new dispensation, as they have
been during the era of the burro and the
teamster. The trains on the Mexican
Central run from the depot of the A, T
& s. F. r. r, in FL Paso to the City Of
Mexico without change of cars of any
kind. The run is made in fifty-elght
hours, and the fare is $3.50. The fart

Among the supporters Of the Morri-
son tariff bill there are dIscoverable two
elements. One wants the passage OF
some tariff bill In the house for political
effect, frat IN the Democratic national
convention, and afterward IN the cleo
ton in certain districts. To these PEG
pie 1t is not at all important that the
bill should be one that can pass the SEN
ate, nor do they want it accepted by all
Democrats. AS a club to beat Mr.. Ran
dali, Mr., Payne, or Mr.. Tilden, the bill
would answer all the better If 1t
should be quite moderate in terms, but
it must pass the house. The pres

Kansas City Journal: Senator Ingalls,
hit the nail on the head when he said,
in substance, in the course OF the debate
on the BLAIR educational bill, that peo-
pie were poor because they were
ignorant, not ignorant because they were
poor. All the educational work in the
carly union was accomplished by poor
people IN an undeveloped and struggling
country, and from their labor and toll
came forth the grandest results of his
tory. The senator has proved himself
upon this, as upon other occasions. q re-

with the arrangements was that the Flambeau
Club, instead of being assigned to space in
the open field between the grand stand and the

der the noses of the thousands of people in the

only the stragglers in Camp Beath and the
visitors in the carriage blockade outside had
the full effects of the splendid pyrotechnic dis
play, which certainly must have been seen at
st. Paul, 10 miles away. Brilliant fiery SER
pents, burning balls shot from cannon, which
