Congressional Forecast.

WASHINGTON, D. G., February 49,
The backward state Of the appropri-
alton bills lends serious interest to the
remark that Senator Villas dropped yes
terday during the long debate on the
Sherman bond amendment that there
might be only q short interval between
the adjournment Of This congress and the
assembling Of the next. There are two
or three other matters Of discussion still
to come up in connection with the pend
ing Sundry civil bill in the senate, whose
consideration has already consumed the
best part Of the week. Included among
these 10 ths proposed amendment in re-

Ifthere is any law topunish traitors
it should be applied to Col. Hughes
and Sheriff Wilkerson. The latter ia
perhaps more liable to penalty mas
much as he violated the statutesby
swearing in deputies who were not
citizens Of this county. The non
resident deputies are also liable to
punishment. These cases must be
attended to later.

ANARCHIST HUDSON, of the Topeka
Capital proposes to publish his let
ters to Governor Lewelling in pam
phlet form to be used as campaign
literature. We suggest that he throw
in some of his comments made during
the Homestead trouble, in which he
endorsed the punishment of Private
Iams for insubordination.

people for honest and unprejudiced
news service and that he is now
making a successful effort to give
them such service in his daily. Who
ever appreciates daily paper should
have the Press as long as it pursues
the fair policy on which it has

SoMR republicans are never happy.
They found fault with their last gov
ernor because, they said, he was built
with an angle worm where the back
bone ought to be. Now they have
encountered governor with too
much backbone--for them. We
think most republicans prefer the
angle worm variety.

WHILE it is generally conceded that
Mr.. Cleveland will call an extra ses-
sion of congress soon after his lnau-
guration, no one seems to venture a
guess as to what will be'done besides
re-electing Speaker Crisp and pass
ing appropriation bills. Why, yes;
there is the fight against SILVER, which
may not end this session.

THE Populists and democrats denounced

stump for the last two years, and now they
vote against its repeal.-EmpOria Repub-
ican.
The republicans have proclaimed
the Sherman silver act just the thing
for the good of the country from every
political stump and through the col
umns of every republican paper for
the last two years, and now they want
it repealed. If it is such a good
thing, let us hold on to 1t. This is
what is proposed to be done until it
can be replaced by a free coinage
law.

COURTS ARE HUMAN.

COURTS ARE HUMAN.
1t may be SAID that all this trouble
in Kansas would have been aVerted
had not our supreme court decided
that it had no power to order the
state caRvassing board to reconvene
and correct certain outrageous errors
by which two election certificates
were gwen to two men who were not
elected, emitting them, by the old
rule, to take part in and vote at the
organization of the house. While the
Populists Loyalty submitted to this
decision, they devised other means to
correct the outrages perpetrated by
the county and state boards, or to
counteract their effects, and these
facts, as most readers of the ADVOCATE
know, account for the existence of q
double-hesded house.
The Washington Republican calls
attention to case recently decided in
Michigan to show that the conscience
and Judgment Of a court may be ad-
justed to suit the occasion. It is ex-
actly parallel to our case, except that
the Office in question is that of con-
gressman. Of course, if this Michi-
gan decision does not suit the national
house of representatives, it will be-
treated by them as the Kansas de-
cision was treated. The points are
set forth in the following dispatch
from Lansing:
The supreme court to-day granted a man
dsmus in che contested election case in the
Fifth congressional district, Richardson vs.
Belknap, compelling the board of canvass
ers Of Ionis county to reconvene and reject
certain votes counted for Richardson which
elect Belknap, the republican candidate. Il
also ordered the state board of canvassers to
FeConVene and canvass the vote of that dis
triCt and issue certificate to Belknsp. A
certificate has already been issued to Rloh-
srdson, and he has been entered upon the
list of members Of the next house. II is re-
garded as somewhat doubtful whether Bel
knap will be admitted to a seat in the
democratic house.
The justice of such a decision may
be easily seen, and the best of argu-
ment was submitted to the Kansas
court during the hearing of the cleo
tion cases referred to above, calling
attention to the proposition that if
the holding of a certificate is flaw
less title to a seat in legislative
body, the party in power could,
through the dishonesty of The can
vassing board, or even an unscrupu-
lous secretary of state, remain in
power indefinitely.

THE Kansas Democrat is no more,
but from it's ashes has arisen q bird
that sings a song more cheerful than
has ever been heard from a Topeka
daily. J. B. Chapman, late Of the Ft.
Scott Tribune, last week effected a
purchase Of the Democrat and
changed its name to the Daily Press.
1t has been changed not only in
name, but from stalWsrt democracy
(which in Kansas means the vilest
kind of republican, it has been trans
formed into a hearty supporter Of the
present state administration. Mr..
Chapman is q fusion democrat, and

cally, we can assure our readers that

printing Office, around which many op-
posing interests seem to have centered,
and to have enlisted champions on the
senate floor. After that bill is disposed
of there is the legislative appropriation
bill ready for action, upon which there
are half q dozen hot fights imminent.
Then there are the pension and post
office appropriation bills to follow. Both
Of these measures have been productive
of many columns Of eloQuence in the
house, and it is not likely that they win
be more lightly passed over in the sem
ate.
Mr.. Allison, chairman Of the sppropri-
alton committee, yesterday threatened
night sessions OF the senate to dispose of
these appropriation bills, but experience
has shown that it is impossible to hold
the senate together in night sessions for
more than one or two nights, and those
are generally emergency nights, at the
very close Of the session.
The Nicaragua bill, another fruitful
topic Of talk, is the unfinished business,
and there is the Hawaiian treaty to be
disposed Of in executive session.
The appropriation bills are also in q
backward state in the house. owing
largely to what threatened to be an in
terminabls debate over the pension OPP
preparation bill, and recourse will be had
to morrow to rapid transit in parhAmoR-
tsrv procedure by passing the agriCul-
tural and naval appropriation bills under
suspension Of the rules. It is possible
that the New York bridge bill and the
Utah admission ball also may come up
under suspension Of the rules.
The passage of the agricultural and
naval bills will leave the house only the
postoffice and the Indian appropriation
bills. 1t should not be tedious task to
get action before the house on these
measures. All the bills heretofore passed
have been amended by the senate, how
ever, and considerable time between
now and March 4 will have to be spent
in acting on conference reports on the
appropriations.
Mr.. Hatch is getting very restless over
the delay in the rules committee on his
request for day for the snti-option bill
and it is almost certain that a move Of
some sort will be made by him this week.
He has not asked for an opportunity TO
pass the bill under suspension Of the rulss
and it is asserted by its op,onsnts that he
could not so pass the Din If he tried.
Two other courses are open to him: first,
to get special order from the rules
committee giving him day for his bill
and then TO vote down the previous ques-
tion, as the anti-silver men attempted
unsuccessfully to do, and amend the
order by making cloture a part Of It;
second, move to 90 into committee Of
the whole to consider revenue bills.
This latter course would put no curb
on the filibusterS, and therefore Mr..
Hatch is not likslY%o take this course.
If he did 80 the light would be one Of
endurance between the friends and op-
ponents Of the anti option bill. Notice
has been given that the car coupler bill
with senate amendments will be called
up next Tuesday.
