THE legislative appropriation for the
Soldiers Orphans Home at AtchisOn
was most shabby, considering the
needs of that institution. Governor
Martin in the Champion does not mince
matters in speaking of it. The blame
for the illtimed parsimony is laid by
him at the doors of Jim Legate and
Representative Veale with three or
four others, who, he says, deliberate
ly deceived many of the members by
making unfounded statements concern
ing the institution, its needs and its
ceived, because both of these men had
been furnished with the facts, and
Legate gate had in his possession, adj
dressed to him as chairman of the ways
and means committee, an official let
ter from the superintendent of the
Home, fully explaining the needs and
condition of the institution, and set.
ting forth, in detail, the urgent neces-
| sity of the additional buildings provid-
ed for in the senate bill.
1t is, probably only fair to assume
that quite number of those who
voted no were really deceived by men
who were, quite naturally, supposed t.
be fully informed, but withheld the in
formation in their possession, mali
ciously antagonized the bill. and de
ceiYed their fellow members by state
ments destitute of foundation

Installation Of Officers

The installation of the officers of the
state department of the Grand Army,
the Woman's Relief Corps and the
Sons of Veterans was grand and i'm
pressive ceremony. At the appointed
time the band started up with Annie
Laurie" Coming Thro' the Rye
and others. The audience then had
the rare pleasure OF listening to the
very excellent drumming of Major
Henry Henderson, the drummer boy
of the Rapahannock. Accompanied
by his son, with a fife. he played 1.-The
Irish Washer Woman in a most
gratifying and skillful manner. He
was heartily applauded and encored
AMI responded with the long roll or inn
itation of battle. Then came the
installation of the officers of the G. A.
r. The order of the ritual was OBJ
served, installing first, the senior and
vice commanders, and the medicsa
director, then the chaplain, and t.
council of administration, and ffnAsJsS
the department commander, his
adjutant Lawrence Wilson and Quar-
ter Master General Lenum. The in
structions to the newly installed of
ficers. and the gavel was turned over to
the new department commander,
Henry Booth. He made brisf address
to the old defenders of the flag, saying
that he came to the position with some
degree of timidity. conscious that he
might not fulfil the expectations OF
his friends ard comrades, but that he
would do his duty to the best of his
ability.
The select quartette favored the au-
dience with the beautiful composition
of THE Ship of State" In answer to
a vigorous encore, they sang the Sail
or's Song"
Then followed the installation of the
officers elect Of the W. b. C. Their
forms were very much the same as the
ritual of the G.. a. B.. The senior and
junior vice presidents were duly IN
stalled, their oficial insignias affixed
aud escorted to their stations. The
executive board was installed. Then the

THE Atchison Champion says very
wisely: The fright and often panic
that follows the discovery of a small
pox case, in this section Of the coun-
try, is absurd. The: disease is not
nearly as dangerous as some others
that excite no alarm. But the news
papers indulge in such senseless gable
concerning it, and so many people
seem to have such nervous dread of
it, that single case often excites a
whole community. 1t is, of course,
wise to isolate smallpox patients, but
1t is very easy to prevent the spread of
the disease, 1t is not sin the air." 1t
ant be carried ten feet through pure
air. 1t is not often fatal. And vac
cination is reasonably certain pre-
tentative. Hence there is no reason
in the panics thatso frequently follow
an outbreak of small pox.

THE Atchison Globe regards the
county superintendent as useless OIL
cial. If such functionaries are at all
needed, 1t says, each should be given
the charge of three or four counties in
stead of one. The Globe is out of the
way we think, especially touching the
enlargement of territory. That would
be simply to render his services prac-
tically useless. A superintendent who
attends strictly to business has his
hands full in looking after the school
affairs of one county. He earns his
salary. which is more than can be said
Of some functionarles deemed neces-
sary. Tosay that the ONCE is a useless
one, is 70 talk at random.

THE Globe Democrat notes the fact
that Sir Julian Pauncefote is "a dis
tinctly weaker man than any one who
has been named to represent the Unit
ted States at a European court" He
has yet to make his mark, says the
Globe. Yes, and if we may believe Mr.
Blaine's book touching the uniformity
with which English ministers and am
bassadors to this country have over
reached us in diplomacy, it viii not be
very difficult for Sir Julian to make
Ibis mark as others have done be-
fore him. Lord Salisbury evidently
had this idea in mind when he named
him for the American mission.

There has been about five thousand
people in the city to take in the encamp-
ment. 1t has been one OF the jolliest
crowds that has ever been in our city.
The old soldiers captured the city and
the homes and hearts of her people.
Throughout their meetings they have
been harmonious, good natured and en-.
ergetic. Their last nights meeting was
characterized by hard work, and less
jollity than those preceding. 1t was
the getting through and going home
which concerned them most. = The
resolutions adopted by the service pen
sion committee were unanimously
endorsed.
The salary OF the adjutant genera
was reduced from one thousand five
hundred dollars to one Thousand two
hundred dollars per year. The salary
of the A. Q. NJ. G. was abolished. Tht

CHAUNCEY BLACK, chairman of the
national association OF democratic
clubs asks that the clubs through
out the union meet April 2
to celebrate the birthday OF Thomas
Jefferson. This effort to infuse new
vigor into the ranks of the party by
invoking the potent name of Jefferson
and recalling the principles in govern
ment for which he contended, is timely
and we'll suggested now when party
ranks are more of less disorganized
and broken. Jefferson is the patron
saint of democracy, and his name ought
to stir up the boys, and call forth new
zeal for the cause.

GENERAL BRADFORD wanted to be
made governor of Utah. lie is. or was
terribly anxious to take hold of the
Mormon question. To recommend
his claims and superior fitness for the
place, he went 10 New Hampshire to
show them how to carry prohibition.
He showed them, but his plans failec,
and his elOquence was wasted. The
state voted no, and what the general
hoped would be winning card turns
out to be the poorest in the deck. He
might retrieve his fortunes by going to
Pennsylvania where they vote ON the
question in two Or three months.

THIS is how Governor Martin sums
up the general character of the late
legislature:
There were, in the legislature, some
of the best men in the state. But
there were also few of the meanest
shysters and demagogues that ever in
tested Kansas; and some members who
couldn't have told, to save themselves
from perdition, what they were there
for. The demagogues, shysters and
nincompoops made the session fail
ure. This is about what we have said
of it, and we have no apologies to make
for this expressed opinion. We be-
lieve it is what the people generally
are saying, all over the state. In fact,
the verdict of the people is made up.
and no amount of special pleading or
excuses will change it.

THERE is fortune awaiting the man
who will invent satisfactory coupling
device for railway freight cars. A
great multitude of inventions have
been tried and discarded as impractica-
BILE. Late statistics show that the
number of railway employees killed or
badly wounded in the United States
last year was nearly 5000. The great
er part by far of these accidents was
due to the link and coupling pin. In
Iowa the number of employees killed in
the past ten years was $500. and last
year about 800. What is needed is a
device that will work satisfactorily
without being too expensive.
