The most disgraceful and generally
rotten act of the present state admin.
istration is the publication of the
session laws with lot of Populist
rump house idiocy sandwiched be-
tween the pages. This public doc
ument has 80 called history OF the
legislative session which takes the
Pop side throughout and by foot notes
and comments makes a mere political
document Of it. Such a low and I'M
called for piece of rotteness has never
been heard of before in the history of
Legislatures. 1t is safe to say that
no set Of men except the gang of
elongated chumps in charge of the
State house at Topeka would have been
so unprincipled. 80 unfair, so uDman.

help their cause. Such a misuse Of the
trust imposed in them and which they
took their oaths to observe will only
disgrace them more deeply in the
minds of all sensible men.
