AMONG the many foolish and des
perate things done by the eastern mo-
nopolists, through the republican mana
gers i'm Kansas, to secure the return of
ingalls, to the Z. S. senate. the stirring
up of the G.. A. r. boys to the folly of
publicly taking part in the fight was
most despicable. The Grand Army is
supposed to be non-political organiza
ton, yet in hundreds of posts through
out the state resolutions were passed
and sent to Topeka endorsing Ingalls,;
delegations were sent to the capital
from all over the state generally on
free passes) to labor with the Grand
Army brothers in the alliance with a
view to getting them to betray the
trust imposed upon them-to sell OUT
to the money powers of the east who
were backing the virulent senator.
Talk about secret organizations taking
a hand in politics! If the Grand Armv
men who were tricked into this thing
are not ashamed of their action they are
indeed to be pitied.

OUR law makers are now getting
right down to business, and are likely
to grind out much reform legislation.
The house of representatives has de-
.ided to hold night sessions hereafter.
The senate, being republican, shows an
inclination to kick on everything the
tower house does, but may be compelled
to take their medicine and concur in
what the house does for the good of the
state. II seems that both houses are
favorable to the holding of constitu-
tional convention for the purpose of re-
constructing the state constitution.
and in view of this fact it is thought
there will not be SO many laws amend
ed as there would have been had not
such action been contemplated. The
expensive codifying committee is not
likely to have its report accepted or
adopted to any great extent, but they
have got their pay for it just the same.
