The wisdom of the trainers of the con.
stitution in providing check and balances
10y dividing the legislative authority be-
tween the House and the Senate was
never better illustrated than it is by the
present situation in the Kansas Legisla-
ture as we'll as in the National Congress.
The Kansas Senate has quieted the
fears of the people by giving assurances
that none of the wild cat legislation,
which is sure to be carried through the
lower House, will ever be allowed to
become law. The United States Sen.
ate. which still retains narrow but safe
Republican majority, may be relied
upon to clog the capers which the in
coming Democratic House will try to
cut with the nations finances.

is looked upon in the light of the people
regulating their own affairs and running
things to suit themselves it can no longer
be called paternalism, but rather autono-
my. Where the government is the peo-
pie, there no longer remains any room
for jealousy OF the extension Of the
governments powers. If the govern
ment does not represent the people it is
because OF political corruption, and that
can only be overcome by gradual inn
proyement in it's moral sense of the
public. Where the people are intelli-
gent and the ballot pure the government
might considerably enlarge its opera
tions without going too far. The public
control of railroads and telegraphs for
instance is not near possibility, but it
is possibility nevertheless. We may
doubt the wisdom of the Stanford Two
Per Cent Bill as financial measure,
but we don't question, the right of the
government to enter into it or any other
scheme which will give the people a
circulating medium adopted 10 their
needs. Free speech and free thought
are eternally established. There is no
more possibility of government interfer-
ing with that than there is OF the sun
turning backward, thing which never
happened and never will. Since these
two are secure we are not afraid of
paternalism and will never oppose q
measure on that ground alone.
1t is right that the people should
manage it's own affairs. All those inter
est which concern society are destined
to be directed by the combined wisdom
and judgment of society expressed
through government. There is no dan
ger of the people being imposed on.
There is no fear of paternalism. The
race is of age.

The Legislature of Arkansas is beinl

The Legislature of Arkansas is being
rounded up by northern paragraphers and
even criticized throughout the South for
her action in refusing to contribute to
the Worlds Fair. There are many
affairs at home which are calling loudly
upon the Arkansas Legislature for atten-
tion and correction. 1t must be con.
fessed that there would be sort of
mockery in her making an elaborate
display before the world at Chicago
while her road system and school sys-
tenn remain in their present condition.

The nations great funeral pageants
always move toward the West. The
East. where are the great centers of our
political, commercial and intellectual
life, draws toward itself by a sort OF
uravitation the distinguished sons OF
she West, but when their life-work is
over it is a beautiful sentiment which
demands that they be borne back to
rest and be resolved into the soil from
which they sprang. The funeral corteges
of Lincoln, Garfield and Sherman were
she grandest the world has ever seen,
and those OF Grant, Sheridan and Logan
were incomplete in that they stopped
short Of the States with which their
names were identified.

The different alliances of the county
should rot commit themselves uncondi-
tionally against the issuing of bonds
until it is perfectly certain that that is
not the best thing to do under the cir
cumstances. The County Treasury is
not now in debt, but is just six months
behind. The money which should be
in the treasury to meet the expenses OF
the next half year has already been
spent 10 pay off those of the last half.
The exact amounts that will stand to
credit of the different funds cannot be
determined until after the settlement
next week, but the indications are that
after all debts are paid the balance in
the county and bridge funds will not be
sufficient to pay the expenditures
absolutely necessary during the next
six months. To demand of the Com
missioners that they incur no further
expenses against these two funds until
after the next tax collection is out OF
reason. The maintenance and repairs
of the two thousand bridges in the
county must require the expenditure OF
large amount of money even with the
most rigid economy. The Commission.
ers are bound by law to keep the bridges
in safe condition and will be derelict to
their sworn duty if they permit them to
fall into disrepair. If a careful estimate
of the unavoidable work that must be
done shows that there will not be
enough of balance to keep the bridges
in good condition, then the expense
must be met by issuing bonds or giving
or giving orders on the Treasurer, These
orders will be branded by him as un.
paid for want OF funds and will bear six
per cent. interest till paid. Bonds if
issued at six per cent. could be sold at a
premium which would make the rate of
interest much lower and be saving to
the county. The question is which OF
these two ways is best.
We understand the Commissioners
have the matter under consideration
and are determined to keep the expenses
of the bridge fund at the lowest possible
limit consistent with the public good.
But if there isn't enough money it is
their duty to provide it in the best way
they can. The draft on the county
fund can be cut down by careful manage
ment as we have before recommended,
but it also will be something, even with
the closest economy. If the Commis.
sioners' Office could be shut up and the
county run on nothing for six months
the situation would present no difficulty
at all. 1t is to be hoped that the bal.
ance will be found sufficiently large for
the running expenses and that it will
not be necessary to 60 in debt. But lift
is the Commissioners will have TO meet
the situation and are in duty bound to
provide for it in the way which will be
cheapest for the people.

There is class of legislation being
proposed at this time which is radical
departure from the accepted principles
of law making. The Two Per Cent.
Land Loan Bill, the Cotton Ware house
Bill and others Of similar nature seem to
go. entirely beyond what are usually
considered the proper functions of gov.
ernment. Most of these schemes seem
to be i'll advised and to merit the
strenuous opposition they are meeting.
One of the strongest objections which is
being urged against them, however. is
that they are ''paternal legislation" and
this statement in the minds of many
seems to be sufficient condemnation.
These particular bills and others of the
same class may be injudicious and i'm.
proper at this time, but the charge that
they look toward paternalism is not
sufficient to condemn them until that
term and destinations are thoroughly
understood. At those times and in
those countries where the government
has been centered in the person of one
man or in limited class, the notion has
generally prevailed that the relation of
the government to the people should be
that of a parent toward his children. In
Rome the Emperors provided the peo-
pie with games for their amusement
and with corn to keep them quiet. In
the later monarchies of Europe the
government felt it its duty to see that
the religious training of the people was
cared for, to- see that they read only
such books as 1t approved and in
thousand other ways to exercise the
stern but fostering care Of parent. The
Scotch and English frst broke away
from this idea. They found that they
could stand alone, mentally. Other
nations have slowly followed until in
most civilized countries freedom Of
speech and thought Il almost absolute.
The people of Great Britain have not
troubled themselves greatly about the
theory OF government since they have
been able to enjoy under a nominal
monarchy the principal benefits OF
democracy. They do not object to the
yoke as long a. it seems to it loosely.
But the English people and the English
law has iealously guarded any encroach-
ment OF government upon their personal
rights. The Anglo-Saxon, wherever he
lives, hates and breads the control of
another, and as long as he recognizes in
government an authority outside OF him.
self he win resent its intrusion into his
affairs.
In spite Of this fact the sphere OF gov.
eminent is increasing, and why should
