TOPEKA, January 20.-The legislative COM

that will be introduced into the legislature,
provided the house becomes organized.
They have reduced the mum Der somewhat.
The first bill is a law providing against
ckild labor, which has gone through the
hands of more than one competent attorney,
and is ready to be introduced.
Another bill provides that all railroads
and other corporations shall make SEMI
monthly payment of wages to their en-
ployes.
A bill for the exclusion OF non-residents of
the city and state from doing police duty
has been drawn.
bill poviding for system of boiler in

ton wants to become an act. They also
want it to be made felony for barber shops
to keep open on Sunday.
They also want system of uniform and
unsectarian text books for the public schools
to be printed by the state and Distributed to
the pupils free of charge.
One of the most important bills to be IN
PRODUCED is one that provides against convict
labor interfering or conflicting with wage
earnerS. One member of the committee
says that harness made by convicts at the
state penitentIary has big sale over the state
among farmers.
All the members of the legislative commit
tee will meet in Toreka this week to discuss
other measures. The members of the COM

Senate Committee Reports.

TOPEKA, January 24.-The senate COM
mittee on elections made report which
states that three contests have been investl-
gated:
D. O. Markley VS.. E. T. Metcalf.
William Rath vs.. Charles +. Scott.
Fox Winnie vs. s. T. Danner.
The report was very explicit in the para
graph that stated that "The committee finds
upon investigation, and believes to be true,
that E. T. Metcalf, c. f. Scott and 5. L.
Banner did not receive majority of the
votes in their respective districts, and that
had the laws been complied with, none OF
said contestees, as shown by prlIna facI9
evidence, would have righttulIy received
certificates of election"
The report stated that the contestants had
erdeayored to make statutory contests. The
committee asked the passage of resolution
empowering them to send for witnesses.
They also asked that the contests be changed
from statutory to constitutional contests.
Lucien Baker, the only republican men,
report. He said that the only alleged con-
tests we're those against Senators Metcalf
and banner, and that they had not been
sworn to, as required by law. He said the
alleged contests were fled in the secretary
of states office ON January II, when they
should have been filed before January 10.
The secretary of state never transmitted the
papers to the lieutenant governor as the law
requires, and in every way the contests were
brought in direct violation of law. Mr..
Baker objected to sending for witnesses. say
ing that the expense would be too great.

sistent With Crop Reports-Confi-

markably Strong-All Grain is

NEW York, January 23.-R- G. Dun & Co. a
Weekly Revisw of Trade says:
The weather appears to account in part
for the somewhat general shrinkage in bust
ness, IN many branches checking purchases
and in others the output of deliveries. There
is somewhat general increase IN the COM
plants in collections, although money at
nearly all points is comparatively easy and
the supply adequate for legitimate demands.
Concessions at the west make iron more &C
tive whilc eastern holders are stubborn, and
the une1ampled competition causes very
low prices for finished products Stocks OF
pig IRON are not increasing and there is large
INQUIRY for Pittsburg, but sharp competition
forces down the prices of plate, structural
and sheet iron, though the business IN sight
is large. 1t is rumored that 1000 tons OF
rails have been sold at the east, but steel
beams are lower at cents per pound. Ship
ments and mining of cUal is affected by the
weather, and the scarcity is severely felt at
some points, the chances of legislative inter
ference with the com ination having affected
the purchases for the future. Wheat is n
cent weaker, with large receipts and small
exports, ana it is still noteworthy that west
ern deliveries are inconsistent with the re-
ports of the last crop. Corn 1 cent and oats
Is cent higher.
Pork products are somewhat stronger;
coffee advances with large sales and scar
city of eggs causes high prices here snd at
Boston. Stock market has been strong,
showing a advance of nearly 2 per share
for the week. Money has fallen to "a per
cent. on call with large receipts for interior.
While European necessities and for foreign
sales of stocks have caused further exports
of gold, no less than 100000 being re-
ported as ordered fer shipment during the
week. and while bankers admit that such
outgoes may cause trouble later. they occa-
sion no present disturbance. Indeed. the
confidence regarding the future business in
all parts of the country is remarkably strong
and general, especially in view of the inter
est taken in the pending measures in con-
gress.
The business failures the last seven days
number 1872, compared with $40 for the pre-
vious week. For the corresponding week
last wear 32S.

RotCh Work.

WASHINGTON, D. c., January A.-Certifi.
Gates of all the states votes cast for presi-
dent and vice president ought to have been
in the hands of the president of the senate
yesterday. As matter of fact, fourteen
states have failed SO far to comply with the
law and many of those states which have
complied have done SO in so slipshod q man
ner that if the late election had been close
the official ascertainment of the result under
the constitution and laws might have been
made almost impossible, and the whole gov
eminent might have been thrown into chaos
Many messengers come untterly unprovided
with credentials. Kansas was one of the,
most conspicuous offenders in this respect.
The populist delegated to bring on the vote
of the state was presented to the president OF
the senate by Senator PETER, Congressman
Simpson and one of his colleagues, who
vouched for him, but their voucher, in the
absence of the slightest scrap of writing
from the electoral college, was not the kind
of voucher the treasury department. re-
quired in order to give him his mileage and
per diem for bringing on the vote As SER
ator PETER finally and sorrowfulty SAID
''The only thing left for US to do Is to pay
his way back to Kansas ourselves and trust
to the state to reimburse US. This ID not
the only case of the kind. Many packages
brought by messengers have had nothing on

The Governor Explains.

TOPEKA, January 18.-The governor has
given Outsthis explanation of his position:
Speaking for myself, 1 say the peoples
party of this state honestly elected major
ity of both branches of the legislature. 1
believe that constitutional and statutory
provisions were not only disregarded but
intentionally violated by those who had it in
their power under form of law to rob the
people of their rights as expressed at the
ballot box. understand that it requires
something more than a mere certificate of
election to give any man the right to an
Office. When officers who for the time being
administer the government use its forms
and powers to nulllfy the will of the people
and deprive them, of their rights, the people
may adopt such necessary proceeding as
will secure to them their rights. Revolution
exists just as certainly where men in Office
use the power and machinery of the law to
break down or destroy conditional rights
as itdoes by the taking up OF arms to oyerturn
an established government. Forcible revo-
luton is no more wicked or hateful to the
people than is that brought about by illegal
and criminal usurpation. To resist usurpa-
tons by criminal methods is not uSurpat!on.
Whatever revolution, or revolutionary meas
ure exists in Kansas today was begun and
inaugurated by men in official places to sub
vert the will of the people. l have never ad-
vised, and do not advise aggressive meas
ures on the part of the representatives of the
peoples party, but i do believe that the peo-
pie should resist with all their moral and
legal force any assaults made upon their
rights in whatever form such assaults come"
Governor Dewelling, when asked if he
thought the acts of the populIsts house would
be legal, SAID that was question for the
courts to decide.

OuStad Seven.

On Friday the populist branch of the Kan
sas house of representatives passed upon
seven contest cases, declaring the seats va
can't for which republicans hold certificates.
Following is the list of republicans ousted
J: A. Campbell, Doniphan; A. c. Sherman,
Shawnee; r. q. Elting, Ness; Peter Bowers,
Grant; I. c. Ballinger, Cotfey; Nick Kline,
Jackson; J. W. Dix, Reno.
The names of the populists seated are: j.
n. Howard, Donlphan; d. NJ. Howard,
Shawnee; ]. n. Goodwin, Ness; F. D. Brown,
Grant; o. NJ. Rice, Coffey; Ed Shellabarger,

The populist house of representatives is
now ready to proceed to business in the reg
ular way and will hereafter pay no attention
whatever to the republican end of the house
of representatives.
Enough contest cases have now been
acted on by the populIsts to give them what
they consider a safe msrjor1ty without
counting in the republican members as
present but not answering to roll call.

StrIn Bill In Sonata.

WASHINGTON, D. c., January ia men,
0eT of the senate committee on Indian
affairs said that they would push the strip
bill Immediately, and as the anti-option bill
will be disposed of to-day, he intimates that
he will be able to bring the bill into the SEN
ate within very few days. He expressed
himself as we'll pleased with the house bill
as passed in a general way, and probably
only few changes will be made.
The most important thing will be to ap-
propEiate to the Cherokees all the money
paid them for the strip, over So, 900, 900, as
it seems that the Cherokee delegates insist
upon this amount beng appropriated imme-
diately. The intruder question, which.
through clever manipulation, was not
brought upon the floor of the house, will
make Its appearance in very violent form
in the senate.
The bill will probably pass the senate with
q provision to pay the intruders for i'm
provements made on the home reservation
of the Cherokees. The bill will then 60 into
conference and the senate will reeede from
Its position on the intruder question and the
house accept the appropriation feature and
in this way the bill will finally be agreed
upon and In due time the Cherokee striE
will be opened TO settlement.
