Report of the Attorney General.

On the 5th of October Gov. Martin sent q
letter to Attorney General Bradford, asking
him to ascertain the real facts touching the
enforcement of laws in Kansas, and
especially the enforcement of the prohibi.
tory law.
On the 23d of October, the attorney gen.
eral replied to the inquiry which has been
printed, making eight pages of a large size
pamphlet.
The summing up of the attorney general
is as follows:
In conclusion, allow me to say: Kansas
has population of about one and one
quarter millions of people: it has eighty
tive organized counties; in sixty-two of
these counties, only 525 convictions have
been had for the violation of the various
criminal laws of the state since January LIST,
1885. That two hundred and thirty of that
number are convictions for the violation of
the prohibitory law. Fifty-two of the
eighty five counties in the state report that
they have no saloons Eight of the other
counties report that the law is partially en-
forced. Two counties say the law is not
enforced, and We may infer that very little
has been done to enforce it. To the last
two counties I will add the counties of
Atchison, Ford and Lsavenworth, where
the law is openly and VIGOROUSLY violated,
making report from sixty three counties
in the state. About seventy-nine per cent.
o. all the cases brought for the violation of
the prohibitory law result in the convic-
ton of the defendants, which shows q very
healthy condition Of public sentiment upon
that question.
Yours very respectfully,
8. B. Bradford, Attorney General.

Clocks of the White House.

There are number of handsome and
historical clocks in the white house.
The clock in Colonel Lamont's room
has in it cathedral gong that has such
a charming sound that persons frequent
ly wait to hear it strike. It is a modern
affair, but has many admirers. There is
a clock in Miss Cleveland's room that
has been going without the interruption
of an hour for over twenty-five years,
In the presidents bedroom there is an
other beautiful clock. In the blue par
lor the famous clock, once the property
of Napoleon Bona parte, and by him pre-
sented to General Lafayette, who in turn
presented it to President George Wash
ington, still keeps perfect time. It is of
alabaster and French gilt bronze. Itruns
for thirty days at one winding. In the
red room President Lincoln's clock OF
ebony and gold still strikes the quarters,
halves and hours with wonderful pre-
cision. The only American made clock
in the white house was manufactured in
New York. It is kept in the green room,
and was purchased when James Monroe
was president.
