--a@ " The Kansas Victory.

| -
The recent Republican victory in the
Second Congressional District of Kansas
looms in grander magniticence as fuller
returns come in. The election it will
he remembered was held on Saturday,
March LIST, to fill he vacancy in Con-
gress caused by the death ofthe lament
ed Dudley c. Haskell. AS Mr. Hask,
ell lacked 1898 votes of a majority over
all the votes cast at last falls election,
the Democrats andGreenbackers formed
u union upon free trade platform and
placed Mr.. Riggs, II talented and popu,
lar free trader, upon it as their candi'
date.
The Republicans though the district
was purely an agricultural one, where
it WAS said the farmers were dissatis
fled with protection, nominated Mr..
Funston, u gentleman possessing nc
peculiar qualification for the place, nor
was he specially popular with the peo.
| pie,
The Democrats went into the contest,
certain amongst themselves of success.
Without any assistance whatever from
free trade Republicans, for there were
some in Kansas, they had right to
expect Il majority equal to the minority
1883 votes, by which Mr. Haskell was
elected, Democratic hopes We're high,
and Republican hopes correspondingly
ldespondent.
In fact the latter had given up the
contest, and only awaited the shout OF
victory which they were sure would
greet their ears as soon as the telegraph
carry the news to Washington. The
news at last came, and, AS expected, it
did cause shouting, but the shouts had
not the Democratic ring in them. They
came from Republican throats. Mr..
Funston instead of Mr.. Riggs was cleo
ted, and that by majority of over
1000 votes in the district, showing a
gain in round numbers OF over 5000
Republican votes. This is the first an
swer to the Morrison horizontal free
trade boomerang. A neat arithmetical
calculation for Democratic free traders
to figure over will be this If the Re-
publCans gain 5000 votes III an agri-
cultural district claimed to bcin favor
Of free trade, how much may they be
expected to gain in a manufacturing
district Evidently the independent
voter was around in Kansas and he
voted with the Republicans. There
will be more shooting into the ballot
boxes straight from the vest pocket at
the next election than will be agreea BILE
for The Democratic free traders.

IT WOULD be worth while for the
Wilmington Conference to remain in
session another day, if only Senator
Salisbury could be induced to tell all
he has heard as a member of the Senate
investigating Committee Of the Copiall
County, Mississippi political murders.
No doubt his graphic relation Of what
he saw and heard, if he would tell, all
would empty the plethoric pocket books
of the ministers in raising special
missionary fund to be used in civilizing
the Copiah Democrats, who are said to
be good citizens and members Of

The question of the election of
clerks of district courts in the various
counties is one attracting much atten.
ton. A test case has been made and
will be herd at the session of the Su.
preme Court Of the Territory in Octo.
bez. Pending this, Judge Hudson does
not desire to express an opinion ON the
subject. The organic act of the terri.
tory gave the judges the power to ap-
point their clerks; but section IL, chap.
ter 43, of the laws of 1883, provided
for the election of clerks of district
courts at the general election. It il
doubtful if this can s,,perscde the char
ter under which the territory was or.
gained, and the Fargo Argus learns
from Judge Stack, who was clerk of the
codifying committee in the legislature
of 1877, that an effort was made when
the present code was before the upper
house for consideration to have clerks
of courts elective, and Judge Kidder
appeared before the counsel in recess
and showed that the law organizing the
territory gave the legislature no right
to make the Office an elective one. But
the law of the United States seems SO
ambiguous on this subject that it is
hard to intelligently interpret it, SC
much stress being laid upon the term
zone clerk" If Judge Hudson car
simply appoint one clerk here, and he
draw his salary from the United States
whas is to hinder the election of an.
other clerk of the district court of this
county, And if this be not true, ther
what is to be done in the fourth and
fifth judicial districts, where the cour,
does not have United States juris.
