The Topeka Capital has made &
thorough study of Judge Crozier's decis-
ion, and is of the opinion that the cues
tion raised in the Beller case must be
met, discussed and understood by the
people, and definitely decided by the
courts or referred back to the voters.
The fact that il was Crozier's decision
will have no weight. Virtually, the
same question was raised in the legIsla-
ture when the late law was passed The
point raised is that so much of the law
as empowers a county attorney TO bring
witnesses before him and examine them
under oath touching their knowledge of
suspected violations of the law is uncon-
stitutional, and therefore void The
power of the county attorney as provId-
ed by this new law. against which Gro
zIer has raised his protest, has a close
affinity to that of the grand jury, and is
based upon the same principle. Wit
nesses are similarly examined, and if the
testimony is of sufficient weight, a war
rant for arrest is issued and the trial
proceeds. If we understand the law
much In the same way as q case that
originates with the grand jury. The
county attorney does not pass upon the
guilt of the individual on trial, and
hence the opinion of Judge Crozier that
the witness is eliminating himself is a
little "preYious" and weak, as the wit
ness may be protected against the legal
effect of his admission.

The Atchisou Patriot of Wednesday
publishes one of the handsomest mar
risge notices We ever read. 1t concerns
two young people who hsVe grown up
In Kansas, and of whom the citizens of
the state may we'll be proud. The notice
Is so trite and true that we take great
pleasure in reproducing it herewith:
This morning, at the cathedral in
Leavenworth, MIR. Frank T. Lynch, edi-
tor of the LeavenWOrth Standard, was
united in marriage with Miss Birdie
Blair, daughter of Gen G. w. Blair, of
that city. The suspicious event was
witnessed by a very large number of Cit
liens, who afterwards enjoyed the hospi.
taIIties at Gen Blair's residence. Bril-.
liant, genial, WhOle-souled Franks
thorough newspaper man.. 9 sparkling
orator, loved by all who know him-all
he needed was the sweeter, softer infiu-
ences of home life; to temper the aspira-
tons of that other life one must neces-
sarily fight with the outside world.
Birdie Blair first opened her eyes to the
sunlight in the Sunf1ower state. The
daughter of one of its eminent lawyers
and statesmen, as well as oldest citizens,
and reared with the tenderest care, those
eyes grew brighter and brighter with
each succeeding day. She is IN the
truest sense of the world 6 Kansas lady,
loving Its beautiful prairies, its genial
climate, its bright sunshine. emily less
than she loves the gallant gentleman to
whom she has entrusted her happiness
for life. It is no wonder that on an Oc-
casion OF this kind old friends from all
parts of the state should 2ather-that
nnF nuun aonRfnT and his arria h1a Iadu
should visit Leavenworth-laden with
elegant presents. to bid the young couple
God speed in the journey they have
started upon. If five could add kindly
word, If we could extend q thousand
kindly wishes, fer the happiness and
prosperity of Mr.. and Mrs. Lynch, 1t
would take columns to hold them. We
can only say, may no shadow ever fall
over your household.

States. The policemen are few, but
they must either do their work very
quietly and efectuallyior have little Of
it to perform. Upon Louis

ton the city was thronged with good
natured citizens Of Louisiana and the
country generally. The writer was never
in q larger croWd-70 O00-and yet there
was not 9 single drunken man, nor the
slightest disturbance that occurred under
our observation during the entire day.
The people Of the south and the ex-
position have treated Kansas handsome
ly, and We have felt that we owed them
something. If the above words, written
in q kindly spirit toward the sunny
south" are not satisfactory, We think we
can yet honor pretty large draft upon
good will and sayings for that country,
and the people of New Orleans can put il
down that our state car

corn, wheat and -four in the world,
but also appreciate worth and meri

Atchison Champion: Those papers
which seem anxious to believe and to
parade to the world their cheerful con-
VictIon that Kansas Is a state full of liars
and drunkards. make great cutlery over
the sales of liquor made by druggists.
These sales, as far as we have noted,
number IN q county from 200 to 800 9
month. Compared to the business done
by . single Wide-open saloon, these sales
appear small. There have been plenty
of saloons IL Kansas which sold over
1850 driaks in q day. To pay the run
ming expenses of eighty saloons, the
number once possessed by Atchison,
would require the sale of 5000 drinks q
day, or 10000 drinks q month. The
grog and growl newspapers also take it
for granted that all the sales made are
fraudulent There is no reason for jump
ing at this conclusion. nor for suppOsing
that the greater part of the sales made
are not legitimate. The object of the
law Is to close the open saloons, and it is
doing it, even though an occasional liar
gets few illegal drinks at q drug store.

THE POSTAL SYSTEM.

New York Sun: The statement drawn
up by Mr.. Hazen for Postmaster Gen.
eral Villas, on the past and prospective
results of the reduction from three cents
to two ia the rate of domestic letter
postage, is very encouraging. This re-
duction, 1t will be remembered, took ef-
feet on the 1st of October, 1888. 1t was
expected that the loss during the first
year would be heavy, but it tell half a
million short of the estimates. The
truth is that the deficit is being made up
with unexpected rapidity in two ways.
First, many more letters go through the
malls in consequence of the reduction
secondly, the twe-cent letter Is making
lnroads on the province of the postal
card.
The increase ia the number of letters
on a reduction of the rate OF postage had
become so well known through previous
experience as to be almost a calculable
element. The postal card, however,
had been introduced since the
last previous reduction; hence it
was impossible to say how 1t would be
affected by the new experiment. 1t be-
came evident last year that 2-cent pos
tage was checking the use Of the postal
cards, but this year the indications IN
that direction are surprising. The sta
tistics of the postof1ces department show
that during last month about four mill
ion fewer postal cards were sold than
during the corresponding month of the
previous year, whereas thirteen million
more postage stamps were sold. AT this
rate of change, the results for a year, In
this particular, must be very important.
Leaving out of the account the relative
cost of manufacturing the postage stamp
and the postal card, the government gains
heavily by selling monthly millions of
? cent stamps in place of 1-cent.
This experience must inspire conf
dence in looking forward to the opera
tion of the still more recent postal i'm
proYement which congress provided for
at the last session. On the LIST of July,
under the act of March 3, 1885, the unit
VI III Will NC H.
creased from half an ounce to one ounce.
The sole object of this change was the
convenience of the public. which is
ignored in the present absurd restriction
of letters to a weight only half as great as
the one allowed in Great Britain for Z
single rate. But while a slight
temporary reduction in income was
thought probable by many of the friends
of this reform, it now seems quite rea-
sonable, in view of the experience just
spoken of, to believe that the revenue of
the department will, on the contrary, be
increased. Mr.. Hazen is convinced of
this. ut will not be likely" he says, ito
materially increase the average weight
of the letters sent through the malls, and
1t will undoubtedly induce the sending
under seal at letter rates OF large class
of valuable matter now sent in wrapped
parcels at the cheaper rates charged on
fourth-class matter"
In short, considerations analogous to
those that give the two cent letter advan.
tages over the postal card, will often
make the ounce.weight sealed parcel
more desirable than the fourth-class
packages

The New York Herald has just DIS
covered that New York city and all
other American seaport towns are un-
protected and that any foreign man-of-
war could soon destroy and ruin any sea
port of the United States. The Herald
thinks that 100000. 900 should be ex.
pended in strengthening forts and man
ufacturIng guns. Before the people of
the west furnish so much money to
strengthen coast defenses they would
like TO know what kind OF a war the
Herald is going to have the United
States indulge in.
