The Mexicans lave an unpleasant way
of dealing with fool Americans, but
they must be commended for enforcing
their own laws when they take a notion.
a recent statutory enactment provides
for the death penalty on any person
who interferes with a railroad train,
and the formality of trial is even dis
pensed With. One week ago a Mexican
met his mistress and her daughter on a
railroad train, and in a rage of jealousy
lie shot them to death. lie was cap
tured, and in three days was shot 10
death, in accordance with the Mexican
criminal law. The governor approved
OF the execution by telegraph. This
cut oil all opportunity for the insanity
plea, and saved the supreme court the
work of reviewing the case. Here in
Kansas we are becoming more progress
siye every year, and decade will not
have passed until a hanging will GER
tainly follow every case of murder, rape
or horse stealing. IL may not have leg
islative sanction, but old Yor Populi
will be satisfied.

Every Democrat in Kansas, has rea-
son to be proud of Col. Thomas Moon
light, defeated candidate for goyorher.
He made gallant canvass and has the
respect of his party's opponent and the
admiration OF his party friends. He
did not have the assistance from demo-
crat speakers that should have been
given him, and there was no money
expended III the campaign in his behalf.
And yet he polled fattering vote.
But best of all, Col. Moonlight is not
now swearing at every body aud every
thing over his defeat. A reporter found
him last Thursday answering up letters
received just before the election and he
was in a most excellent humor He
was asked how he found the democrat
ic papers III the state. His answer was:
There are many, very many, able
men connected with the democratic
press OF the state, and YOU will hear
from them by and by. Many have just
got farely started, and are pulling hard
against the stream, but every year will
lessen the republican current, until
with one proud sweep victory will be
ours. Remember that tie democratic
papers have little or no official patron
age IN the counties, but this does not
discourage them. and no men were ever
more loyal TO u candidate than the dem
Ocratic editors were to myself. With
your permission / will. here and now,
thank them with I'll my heart"
is the party now organized for the
future:' he was asked.
ss'Ihprp is a hnf for prcr.f v, n tiOn n-Iay
than ever before, i'm each and every
county, and the foundation is now laid
for future wtr<. If my voice could be
heard. would urge upon the democrats
10 begin at once system Of township
organization 8, 'choOl district organiZa-
tons, and county orr a iiZations, SO that
the political status OF every man would
be on record; and where there were
doubtful men, 20 To work on them, and
never leave them until they belonged to
u.s."
What has been gained by the can
vass?'
Very much gained. In the first
place there will be more than twice the
number of democratic members of the
legislature. This is very important, and
| proves that the people are not satisfied
with the course of republican legisla-
ton. In the second place we have
/ elected twice the number of county Of
iicers ever before elected. This eXhib-
| its the growing power of the party. In
| the third place. it has secured an or
| ganiZation i'm each and every county IN
the state. and given the party courage
| To place county tickets in the field The
| glory and gain are all with the demOc-
/ racy, and only the Offices with the re-
/ publicans.n

RA1nEn DANGEROUS.
An Electric Girl Who Turned Her Bed
Into q Sheet of Fire.
boston Postl


boston POST
An electric gIrl has been discovered once
more. not in Georgia this time, but In Cali.
fornia, and her performances, as related
by the local paper, completely eclipsed
those Of her predecessors. The new won
der is not given to such commonplace feats
as breaking chairs and knocking down
men. Her powers border altog ether more
On the miraculous:
The first evidence to that effect that the
young lady had presented itself 70 her
few evenings ago. She was about to re-
tire, and extinguished the light in her
room, and with a quick motion rolled
back the bed-covering, when 10, and be-
hold! the bed Immediately was turned In
to sheet of fire. The young lady, much
frightened, screamed "Fire!" and at the
same time grabbed the bed covering
in her arms. When the other members
Of the family arrived at the door OF the
room they found her standing in the mid
die of the room in the midst Of what
seemed to be fame Of fire but no sooner
bad the bed clothes been taken from her
arms than the flames disappeared. Ex-
periments made by the young lady since
have proved that she has becoms possessed
CT vast amount of electricity, which
shows itself at every opportunity. The
Young lady is not at all satisfied with the
phenomena, as 1t requires the greatest
caution on her part to keep from starting
up a small bonfire by the slightest move
ment of her hands.
Altogether she appears to be rather
dangerous young woman. It Is better,
however. to be an electrical girl than to
jump of Brooklyn bridge, so far as get
ting commission from dime museum
goes.

The Emporia Republican of last week
contained an interview with Senator u.
j. Plumb, in which that gentleman,
referring to recent dispatches to the eff
feet that New. York and Colorado syn
dicates had been formed for the pur-
pose Of purchasing from the Cherokee
Indians the tract of land embracing
about 5000, 900 acres on the north line
of the Indian Territory, known as the
Cherokee strip, says the Cherokees
have not the original right TO make
such sale, that the government has
an option to purchase that it will not
waive to permit the purchase by private
parties and that no sale will be permit
ted by congress except to the govern
ment, and that for the only and sole
purpose of resale to actual settlers in
l6O-acre tracts. \ dispatch from Tab
lequah says the government has a
standing offer of Sl.25 for the lands.

THE NEXT SENATE

The Washington Star Of last Saturday
figured out probable tie in the senate
after March 3. 1t says: "On March
the terms of sixteen republicans and
nine democratic senators will expire.
OF the sixteen republicans who will re-
tire, twelve will certainly be succeeded
by men of the same party. Messrs.
Sherman, Aldrich and Edmunds have
been reelected. and the legislatures of
Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts,
Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New
York, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin are
republican. The democrats lose one of
the nine whose terms expire-Fair, of
Neyada-and are sure of the remain
der. SO that, if the legislatures of Cal
iforma, Indiana and New jersey prove
to be democratic, the result of the
change i'm the senate after March 3 will
be net loss 0f three to the republi-
cans, a democrat having been chosen
TO succeed Malone from Virginia. The
present senate stamls: Forty-One re-
publicans, thirty-four democrats and
readjuster Riddleberger; but Senator
Van Wyck comes back from Nebraska
rs a peoples representative. lie made
his fight before the whole people and
won an issue of opposition TO corpora
tons. During his present term, he has
not hesitated OH all occasions to antag-
oniZe his party, and under the cOndi-
tiOns of his reelection he may he more
independent still. Leaving VanWyck
and Riddleberger out of tho count, the
next senate will stand, providing the
democrats secure the three doubtful
states mentioned, 81 republicans, 81
democrats. Thus Messrs. VaDWyck and
Riddleberger would hold the balance of
power. In connection with this prob
able situation, it is fact worth men
tiOning that both VanWyck and Rid
dleberger have given evidences of
kindly feeling for the administration.
In the event of conflict between
the executive and the senate, the two
votes from Nebraska and Virginia
would determine the issue. VanWyck
and Riddleberger would have it in their
powerS by cooperating with the demo-
Gratis to organize the senate, or should
VanWyck vote with the republicans
and Riddleberger with the democrats
on the question of organization, there
would be a tie, and there is no vice
president TO throw the deciding vote.
