Several counties in the State have q
different times elected women to Office
and in each the question of eligibility wa
discussed until now it is generally under
stood the state over. But as the proeen
is the first appearance Of the issue In Da
Wis county, and some have raised th<
doubt, we quote from an opinion Of thu
Supreme court settling the matter. W.
wrote q friend in Topeka, familiar with
the question, to find it for US, and be

authority supporting the right OF women
to hold Office, in this State, see Wright
vs.. NOEL, 18th Kansas COL; and Attorney
Generals Report 1880, page 116
Brushing away unconstitutional bubbles,
there can be no question as to the Legality
of choosing a woman for the Office OF Reg
lister of Deeds. Once elect her, and she
will be permitted to qualify and enter
upon the duties of the Office, without
doubt I have known women In my time,
who would make good governors.
Frsternally yours,
The following is the opinion Of the Su-
preme court:
"In this state woman is eligible to the
Office of county superintendent OF public
instruction. There is not, only no ex-
press, constitutional disqualification OF
females, and no affirmative statement OF
qualifications which would exclude them,
but there is nothing in the language Of
the section creating the Office, nor in the
duties imposed by law upon the officer,
which would imply the necessary or in
tended exclusion of either sex.
"As the people, with respect to certain
Offices, have seen fit by express constitu-
tional provisions to restrict their freedom
of choice, it is fair inference that, where
the constitution is silent, they intended
no restriction"
"The question, whether woman can
legally hold public Office, is not like the
question whether an unnaturalized alien
may vote or hold Office. The inclinations,
interests, and duties of aliens are pre-
with the nation of which they
are citizens, and antagonistic everywhere
else. But the men and women of our own
nation are alike citizens. There is no an
tagonism. And whether females shall
vote or hold Office, is merely question of
internal public policy, and not matter
affecting the life and integrity of the ma
ion"
Referring to this opinion, the Attorney
General in October 1879, wrote as follows:
Il have no doubt that, upon tho au-
;hority, the court would hold that
woman can hold the Office of County
Treasurer"

Judge Pratt's Retirement.
: Norton Courier.

:" Norton Courier.
4 meeting of the members of the bar Of
Notion county was called to meet at the
court house on Wednesday, October IA
1885, at 10 o'clock A. NJ, with a view OF
considering the propriety of passing reso.
lutions expressive of the sense of the ba,
on the retirement of Judge w. H. Pratt
from the bench. The meeting being duly
called to order, Hon. L. b. Thompson
vas called to the chair and Hugh Nc
Credie was appointed secretary. On mo.
ton, q committee consisting of Hon J. r
Hamilton, William Wilson and G. L.
Emery was appointed to draft, consider
and report series of resolutions for the
consideration Of the meeting. This COM
mittee retired, and on returning submit
ted the following resolutions:
WHEREAS, Hon. w. 81. Pratt, Judge of
this, the 18th judicial district of the state
OF Kansas, has now completed the last
term of court he will hold in this county
before his retirement from the bench, we
believe it right and proper fer us, as men,
bers OF the bar of this court to place upon
record our estimate of him as man and
our appreciation Of him as district Judge.
1t Is becoming, We think, for those who
came In close professional contact with
hum, to testify to the manner of his dis
charge of the many weighty and respon.
sibls duties incumbent on the Office he is
now soon to leave, to once again take his
stand at the trial table.
Therefore, Resolved, That the men,
befs of the bar of Norton county can not
but regret the retirement of w. II. Pratt
from the district judgeship of this dis
trlct, even though We see in the near fu-
ture the elevation of one of the members
OF this bar to the same high Office. In
Judge w. ii. Pratt we have had a staunch.
determined upholder of the law, without
respect to person or party. He was learn
ed, fearless, painstaking, impartial and
prompt Justice has ever by him been
meted out with an even hand. The weak
ever found shield against the oppres-
Gons OF the strong, and right ever had a
warm defender. In his retirement after
% faithful service. he carries with him
our hearty good wishes and warm friend
smp, and we earnestly express the hone
that the Great Judge of all NAV snare
bum to long life of good health. happi-
ness and prosperity among us.
Resolved, That committee OF three
be appointed to present these resolutions
duly attested at the next term of the dis
trict court, to the judge thereof. and pray
the court to order their entry on the rec.
ords OF the court, and the same to be nub.

VOTE TIE TICKET STRAIGHT.

To arms, ye brave Republicans,
For battle be prepared:
Along the line, from right to left,
The signal gun is heard
In line OF battle forward march,
And let the guide be right;
For flag and country strike my lads,
And strike with all your might.
Remember what you're fighting for,
And ever keep in view,
The union, saved by heroes brave,
The gallant boys in blue.
Unbroken keep your lines preserved,
No wavring let appear,
And raise the shout of long ago,
The ringing union cheer.
Remember those you meet to-day,
You've often met before;
The principles are just the same
For which We fought in yore;
Let duty" as the battle cry,
Ring out along the line,
And when November's contests DER,
The vict'ry will be thine.
Ihe good old banner raise alOft,
And greet it with cheer;
Be steadfast now as in the past,
Your line Of duty clear;
Do not be caught in ambuscade,
By foes who Turk in wait;
But boldly march up to the polls,
And vote the ticket straight.
Protect your TANKS with skirmishers,
Put brave men in the van;
And when the day of battle comes,
Determine to a man,
That each his duty will perform,
To country, flag and state,
And thus resolved, advance your lines,
And vote the ticket straight.

Arsbella was school girl
So was Sally Ann,
Hasty pudding can't be thicker
Than two school girls can.
These were thick as school girls can be,
Deathless love they swere;
Vowed that naught should ever part thel
One-forever more.
They grew up as school girls viii do,
Went to parties, too;
And as oft before has happened,
Suitors came to WOO.
And as fate or luck would have it,
One misguided man,
Favored blue-eyed Arabella
More than Sally Ann.
And il made no earthly difference,
That the laws are such
That he could not wed two women,
Though they wished it much.
So GOODNESS rose between them,
And the cause-a man
Cold was Arsbella-very-
Coldsr-Sally Ann.
Now they call each other "cresture,"
What is still more sad,
Bella, though she won the treasure,
Wishes Sally had.

calhoun's Love of 'Possum.

"Somehow or other all these great
men had their peculiarities about what
they wanted to eat. There was Mr..
Calhoun, who always had his 'possum
and sweet potatoes when he could get
them. He used to say to me: Now,
Steve, you get me nice fat 'possum,
cook it the day after it is killed, parboil
it, then put it in hot oven with boiled
yam potatoes laid around it in the
oven and then let it slowly brown. If
you can get coon, Steve, you make
plenty of coon gravy, very brown, and
pour it over the 'possum, and don't
fail to have the 'possum well favored
with pepper, salt and sage. Well, sir,
you just ought to see Mr.. Calhoun sit
down to dish of 'possum with coon
gravy. He wasn't a big man, but he
was mighty thin, and there was plenty
of room about his vest. He would
make that 'possum very sick before he
got through with it. He used to say
that it reminded him of old South Car
DINA to eat 'possum, and that's the
reason he liked it so well. Many time
he's told me about going out 'possum
hunting at night with colored boys and
dogs and an AK, freeing the 'possum,
cutting the tree down and roasting the
'possum before log fire.-Bdltimore

the redskins to roast teller at the

they ever kotch him. He fit aroun' fur
nigh onto five years, an killed about
two dozen NV 'em, an, NV course, tibet
didn't make IN love Jeemes any better.
Finally, one day, they slipped up on

made bigger hullabuloo over Darby

goin' to be called on to furnish the

Jeems up to the post an hitched him
