Topeka, Kan, Dec. 23.-suit against
five Republican members-elect of the
lower house of legislature was brought
by Populists today in the supreme court
in the shape of mandamus proceedings.
Court today passed upon only one case,
that from Haskell county, whore Stubs,
(Rep) was given certificate of election
by mistake, figures showing election of
ltoSenthall, POpulist the court ordered
the canyassiHg board to reconvene and
rectily the error or show the cause by
Jan. 3 why it does not obey a mandate
of the court. The other four cnscs will
be passed upon tomorrow. The Populists
are determined to bring other suits
against the Republican postmaster elect
cd to the new house. The basis OF the
suits is the provision in the state con-
stitution which forbids election to more
than one public office of one man. Re
punllCnns hope to meet these suits by
inducing five mcmbers-clect to resign
their federal positions.

in iron Is notably weak. A heavy trade

season, particularly in dry goods, shoes

other hand, the money market is showing
more signs of pressure. 1t is worthy OF
note that collections are somewhat less
satisfactory in the West, they are only
fair in the South The attractive fen

Japaneze Civilization.

AS illustrating his claim that the
Japanese are a more civilized people
than the Americans, gentleman at a
recent Boston dinner table cited Prof
esser Morse's statement that if, in a
Japanese city, one picks up stone to
throw it at dog the dog does not run,
because he has never had q stone
thrown at him, and does not know
what the action means. Manifestly,
if such state of universal gentleness
and kindness prevails in Japan that
not even a stone is thrown at a dog
by boy, there must be very high
and thorough civilization, permeating
all classes of the population. This ar
gument may not beaccepted as COM
plete by the scioiogists, who would
doubtless maintain that it requires
something else than gentleness and hui
manity to make civilization. But GER
tainly the fact is to be taken as an ex-
cellent item of evidence in making
out a case of high civilization for the
japanese. And it is significant fact
that it was reserved for our own Enro-
pean- American civilization to intro
duce the completest refinement of cru
city to animals.

strong Tillman precinct but sees no reason

to look up a man who has not been promi-

Tillman on the stump and show him up as
the grandest fraud of the 18th century.
Tillman man in East Darlington, at
Dovesville-
Doesn't think the governor as strong as
he was; people seem to he at sea; doesn't
think they are thinking much of politics;
believes Tillman an extremist and the peo-
pie want and would vote for more conser-
Nttive man; has heard few who opposed
the governor say they believed he IS an
honest man; II think the sentiment is for
broad conservative man that would have
the interest of the State and people at
heart: one that would do unto Others as he
would others do to him."
Tillman man in northeastern part
Very little change: there is some dlssat-
isfaction against the legislators; voting
strength of precinct 1870; thinks the gov
ernor could carry it against any other
man; has no personal knowledge OF chang
es either way; Governor Tillman has
made some mistakes but not more than
others have done. / heard one OF his oppo-
nents say he was a better governor than
Governor Richardson was. The people cS-
pected too much of Tillman. l think he
has done better than than the representa-
tives have. If we could get a stronger
man thoroughly identified with the farm
ers' movement would like to do So"
Anti, in northeastern part
There is some disappointment; the
change, if any. is against the governor;
voting strength about 100; would nearly
all go for Tillman against any man;
knows Of no changes; 81 am not in poll
tics; seldom talk about them, never with
Tlmanite; but my impression is that ILL
man succeeded so we'll in stirring up the
feeling in this county at least, OF poor
against rich, labor VS.. capital, and bad
blood generally, that although he has dis
appointed many of his followers the lines
are still sharply drawn, and few, il any,
are changing their faith"
