1t looks as though the supreme court
of the state of California had jockeyed
a decision in faver of ex-senator Sharon
in that divorce case won against him in
a lower court by Sarah Althea, nee Hill.
The court has decided that an appeal
lies against the decision of the court
below that granted Sarah for divorce,
alimony and attorneys fees, and has
suspended the payment of any of the
money adjudged pending the appeal.
The attorney for Sharon says that this
disposes of the case, because Sarah is
~eternally beaten unless she appeals, and
how can she appeal when the court be-
low gave her the judgement asked for.
This indicates that the Senator hav-
ing got a suspension till the appeal is
heard, proposes to let matters rest. The
senator is in the happy condition of the
Irishman who was invited out to attend
his own hanging. evil you hang me
before [ have an opportunity to pray ?"
asked Pat. "No," said the sheriff,
ayou shall not be hung until you have
prayed" "Then, be jabbers, I'll never
pray."-State Journal.

NOTWITHSTANDING the Kansas law

NOTWITHSTANDING the Kansas law
to the contrary, it appears from the fol
lowing article, written from Sherman
county, Kansas, to the Atwood Demo
GRAFT, that the old trail will be used peace
ably if possible, forcibly if must be.
just what action Kansas will take, and
just what will be the result of throwing
such hordes of Texas cattle upon these
northern ranges remains to be seen. If
perchance they be infected, incalcula-
BILE loss must necessarily result:
SHERMANvILLE.-A week ago Sunday, 1900
head of Texas cattle went through on the old
trail OF their road to the north. There were
about one hundred men and Il wagon load of
firearms besides two forty-fives and a VIM
chester which each man carried. They said if
they could not go through peaceably there was
a way to get through and all hands were pre-
pared for an emergency. a few shots were ex-
changed with some of the old settlers but the
distance was so far no one of either side re-
ceived injury. There is another driye of co.
600 head coming north and are expected to pass
through here in a few days. They are but u
short distance behind the first outfit, which
have by this passed beyond the borders CT the
state. This drive will be followed by many
more before summer is passed unless the au.
thority of the state is vindieated.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND has been
very conservative and cautious in the
matter of appointments and changes
during his first month in office, consid-
ering what he might have done in that
line and what his predecessors have done.
Only 119 civil appointments of all kinds,
including his cabinet officers, were sent
to the senate. More than half the for
eign missions remain unchanged and
nearly all of the Consulships. Less than
three per cent. of the postmasterships
which are recognized as Presidential ap-
pointments were changed. On the whole
he has kept both in spirit and letter his
promises to the people to obey the civil
service law and encourage its wider APP
plication. While hide-bound partisans
are sorely disappointed at his failure to
make a sweeping change in the office
holders, the people who care only for
good government are well satisfied with
their new President as far as he has
gone.-Philadelphia Times.
