The st. Joseph (Mo.) Herald says:
'There has never been any doubt that
Preston B. Plumb would be reelected
senator from Kansas, and the matter
has now been definitely settled by the
Legislative causus which has unani-
mously agreed to this. A better man
could not be found. He is always at
his post, energetic, faithful, conscien-
tiOus, capable, courteous, at all times
laboring for the best interests of the
great state he represents and the
country at large. His fame is by no
means local, and the Kansas Iegisla-
ture ought to know, if it does not,
that it has come to a wise conclusion
in determining not to allow him to
retire. Senator Plumb was born In
Ohio in 1887 and went to Kansas in
1856. In 1861 he was admitted to
the bar, and a year later sat In the
Legislature. Through the war he was
a gallant union officer and attained
the rank Of lieutenant colonel. In
1878 he was again in the legislature,
its speaker in the latter year, and in
1876 was elected United States sena-
tor in recognition Of his distinguished
services. He was reelected for the
term that viii expire March of the
present year. The affairs Of Kansas
In the national capital viii be we'll
looked after as long as they are in
the hands Of Senator Plumb.

S. ]. Hartnan.s statement.

ent signing himself ''Tax Payer in
that paper of last week, exhibiEggi a
great deal Of spleen toward S. J.
Hartman, county clerk. We called
on the clerk to ascertain what, if any,
truth there is. IN the .innuendoes and
open charges made against him about
defective roads and other matters.
We found that the Board of County
Commissioners was in session, and
Mr.. Hartman too busy to talk much.
He said he had heard read the s.Denl-
OcrGts'' article referred to, and would,
IN due time, show that every material
allegation rejecting upon his official
conduct was false, and the publishers
Of them falsefers. This bitter on
slaught upon him had grown out of
the unfortunate county treasury mat
ter, and that those who accused him
Of being in any dishonOrable way re-
spOnsible fol-. treasurer Nipps' misfor-
tunes were actuated either by malice
or were ignorant of the real facts in
the case. Mr.. Hartman said the law
requires him to keep certain accounts
with the treasurer. This he had done
faithfully and honestly. The Com
missioners had, upon a thorough ex-
animation, found them correct; Aessrs
Strain and Bracken, employed by the
county to scrutinize them carefully
found them correct, and so did Messrs
Nelson and Morse. There is no way
that the clerks books could be 'doc-
tOred" without such false entries be-
ing promptly discovered and exposed
and the talk Of a few enemies that he
(Hartman) is in any way the cause of
Treasurer Nipps' trouble is SANDER
GUS, cOwardly and untrue. 1t has
been stated to Mr.. Hartman that an
other county officer is the author of
the article signed TAX Payer in the
Democrat. At this information he is
both grieved and indignant that a
brother officer, a republican, should
go to the columns of a democratic
sheet to stab him in the back under
an assumed non de plume, but that
he now discovers that this man sign
ing himself '.Tax Payer is what ne
did not before know, his bitter and
implacabIe personal enemy. Mr..
Hartman disclaims any unkind per-
sonal feeling against Mr.. Nipps, and
has from the beginning worked dill
gently to discover If any errors had
been made against the ex-treasurer,
and he would have rejoiced if such
errors had been found in Mr.. Nipps'
favor, and would now be glad if it
could be shown that there is no real
deficit in that Office. That he should
be maligned, and that false reports
should be put into circulation and the
batteries of the Phillipsburg Demo
crat opened on him from the editor
and bushwhacker correspondents, is
Just a little more than he. can compla-
Gently submit to without a vigorous
protest. The above and foregoing he
endorses and authorizes published as
expressing his feelings in the matter.

The Passover.

Our Hebrew citizens are now celebrat-
ing the Feast of the Passover, which
festival comes a week earlier than Easter
and this year began on April 10. 1t con-
tinues seven day, having commenced last
Monday evening and will last until
next Tuesday evening, during which time
Hebrews must partake of unleavened
bread. mates being substituted in place
Of the usual leavened bread. The greater
amount of Mates come from New York,
Chicago, Cincinnati and st. Louis. where
they are manufact ured under the direc.
ton Of the rabbis, or some persons ap-
pointed by them. They are made from
selected -four, kneaded with water, and
are very palatable. These are square
cakes, or crackers, as they are frequently
termed by the unknowing Gentle. and
round cakes, and between these two there
10 great distinction. The orthodox
Jews insist that their mates shall be hand
made and each one put into the oven as
soon as it is cut from the dough. These
are from ten to fourteen inches in diane
ter and about as thick as soda cracker.
The reformed, or liberal Hebrews, usually
order mates that are ten inches square
and made by machines. which they be-
lieve are quite as fully within the re-
quirements of the mosaic law. as they are
baked 90 quickly that there is no chance
for fermentation.

ONE MORE STEAMER OVERDUE,

Giving Rise TO the Belief That She Has
Picked Up the Danmark's People.
PHILADELPHIA, April 20.-The Atlantic
Transport line steamer Missouri, Capt Mer-
rill, from London to this city, is eight days
overdue. She is a new vessel, and has never
been in this port. Her non-arrival is now at
tributed in shipping circles to the belief that
she has picked up the 700 passengers and
crew of the abandoned steamer Danmark,
and has taken them to the nearest port, the
Azore islands.
She does not carry passengers, and if she
picked up the Danmark's passengers would
make for the nearest port. Her stock of pro-
visions and water would soon become ex-
hausted, and it would be most hazardous
attempt to endeavor to reach this country
with 700 of the Danmark's crow and passen-
gers and fifty of her own, provisioned for
only fifty people.
