TOPEKA, Kan, Feb. Estate Sugar
Inspector Kellogg has presented to the
State Agricultural Department his an
nual report regarding the sugar industry,
which has developed so rapidly during
the past few years. His report is of the
most encouraging nature as to the future.
He says that there can be no longer any
doubt as to the practicability of the
manufacture of sugar from Kansas

THE RULES ARE GOOD.
Hereafter the Majority Will Not Be Gov
erned by the Minority.

erned by the Minority.
The House committee on rules has
made Ats report, after long waiting,
due to courtesy to the dilatory Demo-
Gratis constituting the minority of the
committee. True to their policy of de-
lay, the Democratic caucus resolved to
ask for more time" to consider what
they will do about the code Of rules. 1t
is fully in evidence that they do not
propose to allow any business to be done
by the House in which party questions
are involved If they can prevent it.
Fortunately, the new rules, which will
be adopted in spite of any opposition the
Democratic members may make, put it
out of the power of the minority to de-
lay legislation by purely dilatory par
liamentary tactics. The more impor-
tant changes made over the cid rules
are as follows:
The Speaker will not be expected to entertain
dilatory motions the Speaker to decide what is
dilstory.
Providing for ascertaining whether there is a
quorum present when the vote does not show
one. This rule authorizes the Speaker to count
members present but not voting in making up
direction of the Speaker, shall note the names
of members not voting and hand the list to the
Speaker TO be read
The elimination Of motions to take a recess
or adjourn over 70 day set.
When any proposition Is under consideration
not more than one motion to adjourn will be al
lowed

whole at 100 instead Of 1876, as at present.
All public bill. are TO be handed to the Speak
er and by him referred under the rules, and not
TO be offered in The open House, as has hereto
fore been the custom. By this rule bills may
be introduced at any time.
The House calendar is to be dispensed with
and all bills will go either to the private calen
lar or to a union calendar-that is, the com
nittee Of the whole on the state Of the union
calendar.
House bills amended by the Senate to be
taken up at once upon being returned to the
House. The committee OF the whole has the
right to close debate on any paragraph or
amendment thereto without reporting TO the
House.
The old morning hour is to be restored for the
consideration Of bills reported by the commit
tees At the close of sixty minutes. If the nat
ter is undisposed OF, q motion may be made TO
go into committee Of the whole to take up a
given measure, to which an amendment shall
be in order-that is, substituting some other
bill-which motion, il lost, the morning hour
continues until the subject matter is concluded,
without regard TO the time consumed.
Every body must admit that the
changes which put it in the power of
the majority to avoid the waste of time
by a factious minority, through all
sorts of dilatory parliamentary tactics.
is an improvement. Especially is the
new rule to be commended which counts
every member who is in the House as
present, whether he sees ft to vote or
not. To say that man is TO be consid-
cred as absent because, for partisan rea-
sons, he refuses to vote. is simply an

THE SOUTHERN SHOTGUN.
It Goes Straight to the Heart Of thu
Vexed Race Problem.


It Goes Straight to the Heart Of the
Vexed Race Problem.
The Mississippi shotgun seems to
possess certain qualities which are not
shared by any weapon known to ancient
or modern times. Other guns some
times prove dangerous in the hands OF
young and inexperienced people, and
frequently cause more trouble at the
breech than at the muzzle. Other guns
evince an occasional tendency to load
themselves at inconvenient and unex-
pected seasons, so that those amateur
humorists who point them at their wives
and children may be able to successfully
consummate their innocent practical
jokes. The toy pistol and the diminu-
tive B. B. rife show persistent dis
position to keep the male population
within strict Malthusian limits. But

social and political conditions OF Missis.

quent race collisions in this State; some.
times these collisions are premeditated;
sometimes they occur under conditions
that preclude the possibility Of careful
preparation. But this marvellous weapon
is never taken unawares, never
startled from its equanimity.
When the smoke of the conflict
clears away it is always found that tts
deadly execution has been exclusively
confined to the Ethiopian race. This is
the more marvellous because the negroes
are always the aggressors, and are al
most always in such overwhelming
| numbers that one would naturally be
disposed to expect slight addi.
ton to the mortuary returns sub
mitted by their opponents. But the re.
suits never vary. The victims are in
| variably confined to the inferior race.
In all these impromptu and amateur
| attempts to solve the race problem in
| which the younger representatives OF
the Caucasian race delight to engage,
this weapon renders intelligent political
service. Courts and juries may be
sometimes puzzled to properly adjus,

that often arise between the two races
The Mississippi shotgun is never
troubled with vexed questions Of juris
prudence or political economy. With
rare intuitive insight it goes unerringly
to the heart of all sociological problems
and humbly confines itself to the simple
duty of reducing Republican majorities

Mysterious Disappearance.

On Tuesday OF last week Richard
Watson, rancher living on theswest
side OF Snake river, accompanied by
his wife and son came TO Blackfoot
to attend to some business matters
and purchase provisions. After get.
ting through with their business he
told his wife and son they had better
hitch up the horses and return home,
and that he would follow them later
on. About 4 o'clock he started out
and upon reaching the Trego ranch,
about two miles west of town he met
Mr. Graham coming to town with a
load of wood; he stopped him and
had short conversation, and while
talking looked up the road and asked
Graham whose team that was coming
Graham told him he could see no
team and did not think any was be-
hind. Watson then started to return
TO town, and after going a short dis
tance remarked that he thought he
bad better take the other end of the
road as he had been TO town all day.
This was the last time he was seen,
and the supposition is he lost the road
and wandered around until he became
exhausted and benumbed by cold, lay
down in the snow and was frozen to.
death. Diligent search has been made
but up to this writing nothing OF his
whereabouts has been learned.
