KANSAS BANKS.

TOPEKA, Kas., April 10.-The secre-
tary of state has received notice from at
least twenty of the national banks
throughout the state signifying their in
tcntion of dc-nationalizing and re-or-
ganizing under the new state banking
law. 1t is likely that the greater part
OF the smaller national banks of the
state will pursue the same course. The
law referred to was passed by the
last legislature, and assures every pro-
lection that the national banking act
gives and relieves the banks OF the neces-
slty of such large capitalization. A
great number of private banks have also
signihed desire to organize under the
new law.

"If his fool friends will kesp out of

If his friends tie Cleveland and silver
to Mills coat tail, there is no telling
what the result would be, but the
chances are that it will be another
defeat for Cleveland"

particular one of them, have to fear

their enemies, and from these first

THE LOUISIANA SPLIT.

The split in the democratic party
in Louisiana may eventually prove
the supreme opportunity of the
republicans of that state. The situa'
ton is very similar to that which
existed in Virginia when Malone
secured that state to the republican
party. Should the Louisiana split be
as complete as present advices indl-
cate, and the bitterness of the anti
lotteryites continue to the end of the
campaign, there will be a splendid
opportunity for the republican party,
by the nomination OF a fiIst.class
ticket, to secure possession OF the
government. With the state gov
eminent in their hands the republic
cans should be able to secure for their
party q fair election In 1892. With
such election secured Louisiana would
be found In the republican ranks at
the close of the presidential contest
next year. There is scarcely doubt
that were all the ballots of the quail
fled voters of the state fairly cast and
counted q majority of them would be
for the republican candidates. With
the electoral vote of Louisiana in the
republican column, and the ranks of
the Solid South to that extent broken
into, a radical change would be made
in the presidential situation. This
result of the split in the Louisiana
state democracy is by no means i'm
probable. The factional bitterness
between the two wings of the state
democracy is most intense. If the
republicans of the state act with wis
dom and decision the victory may be
theirs.
