nation or otherwise during the recess of
the legislature of any state, the executive
thereof may make temporary appoint
ments until the next meeting of the leg
islature, which shall then fill such va
capcies,"
Perkins term, of course, expires as
soon as the legislature chooses a success
sor to fill out Plumb's term. Plumb
would have served until March 3, 1895,
had he lived. When the Kansas legisla-
ture met recently, as all newspaper
readers know, there was dual organi-
cation of the house, the senate being I'M
disputed. Neither Populists nor Repub-
hcans We're able to get the necessary
quorum to vote for some time at the
Joint sessions of house and senate which
were held for the purpose of electing a
United States senator. Finally the
Populists Endorsed the candidacy of the
Democratic nominee, Judge John Mar
tin of Topeka, and on the following day
he was declared elected by the PopuIist
lieutenant governor in his capacity as
presiding officer Of the joint session.
The Republicans dispute the legality
of the election mainly on the ground
that Judge Martin did not receive the
votes of a majority of the members of
both houses. The Populists and Demo-
Gratis take the position that this was not
necessary; that the votes which Judge
Martin got from members whose right
to sit was pnquestioned added to those
which were cast against him, constituted
a quorum of the legislature, which made
it a legal body. Judge Martin, having
received a majority of this majority, has
been, they aver, elected according to
law. These are the contentious of the
two sides, and from whatever viewpoint
it is regarded it presents very interest
ing puzzle to the layman.
Judge John Martins parents were ma
tives of South Carolina who were living
in Wilson county, Tenn, when the en-
bryonic statesman first appeared on the
mundane scene, the exact date being
Nov. 70, 1893. Young Martin early
evinced liking for the law and as soon
as his education was completed COM
menced the study of the profession in
Lebanon, Tenn. When Rush Elmore
as United States district judge went to
Kansas in 1856, Mr.. Martin accompanied
him and has resided there ever since.
Most of this time his home has been in
Topeka, where he still lives.
When the territorial legislature met in
Shawnee county in 1857, Mr.. Martin
was elected clerk. He became assistant
United States attorney the following
year and reporter of the supreme court
In 1850 In 1872 he was elected to the
legislature and in 1888 took his seat as
judge of the district court of Shawnee
county.
Judge Martin has always been an
ardent Democrat and has been honored
by his. party in various ways. He ran
for governor in 1876 and for congress in
1886 and 1888, but failed of election ON
each occasion. Judge Martin is law
yer of acknowledged ability. His fam
lily consists of wife and one daughter.

Headwater Forest Reservations.

As long ago as 1873 Carl Schurz, secre-
tary of the interior during the Hayes
administration, brought on himself great
odium by his attempts to prevent de
struction Of timber on the public lands
It was represented that Schurz was try
ing to force his despotic German notions
down the throat of a great free people,
one of the first of whose rights was the
liberty TO cut, hack, burn, uproot and
cart off every tree on Uncle Sans do
minions. Yet the Schurz idea grew in
popularity until nearly every American
outside of those actually engaged in pur
Joining timber from the public lands has
come to see the necessity for its practi
cal enforcement.
The best fruits of the forest preserva
ton agitation thus far are embodied in
an act passed in March, 1891, for the
preservation of forests upon public lands
surrounding the headwaters of rivers
and streams in the western states and
territories. The law put it in power Of
the president to set apart by proclama
ton certain portions of the public lands
which shall be kept as forest preserves
not 10 be touched by ak or saw. The only
exception is that actual settlers may by
special permit take from such forest
wood enough for fuel, fences and neces.
sary building operation.
Six of these forest preserves have now
been set apart, containing in all oven
5000 square miles. The largest one is
on the southeast of Yellowstone park.
and it is II times the size of Rhode
Island The next largest is the White
river reservation in Colorado, which
state contains three of the six preserves.
New Mexico and Oregon have one each

Juggiers In Asia and Africa.

Professor Harry Kellar, the sleight of
hand performer whose exhibitions have
been given in every part of the world,
writes paper in The North American
Review which creates the impression
that the most slillful magicians, so
called, in Europe and America do not
yet know the A b G of their art. He is
careful to tell us more than once that he
repudiates utterly all supernatural agen-
cies in producing the results which be
describes. He says he has spent his life
In combating the delusions Of supernat-
uralism and the so called manifesto
tions of spiritualism.
But there is one thing Of which Kellar
is firmly convinced after spending 10
years in India and the far east. 1t is
that it is possible for man to obtain a
control over the forces of nature such as
western nations, with all their civiliza-
ton, are not yet even dimly aware Of
That the fakirs of India have gained
such control Kellar is fully persuaded.
They have had it for ages, yet have
guarded the secret so closely that even
Kellar with all his shrewdness is unable
to guess how they perform their feats.
One of the most extraordinary of these
feats is levitation-that is, apparently
rising bodily into the air and remaining
suspended there without any support
Once he saw a spiritual medium. Eglin.
ton, who accomplished the same. Kellar
did not believe in it and held Eglinton
closely by the hand. But even while he
held him Eglinton's body rose in the air
and not only that, but it pulled Kellai
with him until he was first obliged tc
stand upon a chair, then upon table
to keep hold of Eglinton's hand
Once when Kellar was in Africa h,
saw witch doctor levitate the form o.
an athletic young Zulu by waving tuf
Of grass about his head" The witcl
doctor waved bunch OF grass stalk
about three feet long over the head o
the Zulu. In moment OF two the grasI
seemed to take fire The Zulu's body
rose slowly into the air to height Of
about three feet and remained till, as the
grass gradually burned out, it descended
10 the ground. Professor Keilar vouches
In the most matter Of fact way for the
truth Of the story. The easiest way to
get around the thing is to say it isn't so.
II 1t is, then we ought to have troop Of
those African witch doctors over to give
exhibitions at the Worlds fair.

The French people, many of them
poor working people, contributed $780,
100000 to build the Panama canal, ex-
pecting to get it back in dividends that
would take care of them in their old age.
A third of it was used in bribery and
corruption, another third was wasted,
and only the remaining third was en-
ployed in honest work. Charles de Les
seps testified that 81, 100000 of the fund
had been used in the United States "for
the best interests of the company He
did not explain in language any less
vague what was done with the sum. But
In his report Jan. 81, 1881, Count de Les
seps said that "the opposition in Amer
lea had been quashed." This is mys-
terious and throws a shadow over the
American committee of the Panama
company. They were men of high
standing. A full explanation is in order
in America.

The annexation Of the Hawaiian
islands to the United States is rapidly
becoming fact in history. The treaty
upon the subject of annexation made
between the government and the
Hawaiian commissioners representing
the provisional government has been
concluded and sent to the senate for
ratification, after which it is to be sent
to Honolulu for ratification and the
transaction will be complete. 1t will
then remain only for the congress OF
the United States to pass such laws
from time to time as viii be necessary
for the best government of our newly
acquired territory. The sagacity and
patriotism of our present administra-
ton are again clearly shown by the
treaty and by the terms of government
provided. The islands are to be gov
erned by a governor and commission
appointed by the president and con-
firmed by the senate. Otherwise the
plan adopted is similar in many re-
spects to that in force in the other ter
ritories of the United States. The
people of this country will be especially
pleased to learn that the treaty Of an
nexation does not create any new citi-
zens in the sense of confirming the
elective franchise on natives or Chi
nese inhabitants of the islands, and
does not extend to the Chinese, Japan
csc or Portuguese laborers the right to
come from there to the United States.
The administration has secured the
maximum of benefits with the mini
num of evils possible in acquiring a
large and valuable territory regarded
from commercial standpoint, and a
naval station in mid Pacific more than
equal to fleet Of ships of the line.

Ordinarily the general public take
but little interest in the annual reports
of various officers of the state or ma
tional governments. They are gener-
ally assumed to be for the information
of the members Of the Legislature and
do not always fall into the hands of
people who might be most greatly
profited thereby. Among the annual
reports submitted this year there is one
which deserves especial attention from
all who are interested in the develop
ment of agricultural matters. Refer
ence is made to the "First Biennial
Report of the State Board of Horti-
culture" The board has evidently
been much interested in the work it
had in hand and has presented vast
amount of useful and practical informa-
ton. The suggestions on the subject
of 'Disinfectants for nursery stock and
winter washes for trees" will be found
valuable. The book contains a chapter
on "Insects and remedies" which is
somewhat exhaustive. The chapter on
the Varieties Of fruits best adapted for
growing and for profitable cultivation
in Washington might save many
mistakes and much waste of time and
loss of money II carefully considered.
Each member of the legislature will
confer favor and benefit upon every
agricultural and horticultural con-
stituent to whom he sends one of these
reports. Their dist ibution ought to
be general. Those who do not so re.
ceive them should request a copy from
the secretary of state. The industry
under consideration is to be one of the
sources Of our wealth when prudently
and intelligently developed, and the
report referred to will prove a help in
time Of need.

The tragedy being enacted in Topeka,
Kansas, as detailed in kilograms this
morning is most disgraceful affair,
and the party upon whom the response
bility rests ought to be retired from
participation in the public affairs of the
state. The darkest days of anarchy in
the South hardly showed anything
worse than a portion of state legis-
lature holding the capitol by force of
arms while the other portion, mingled
with the bowling mob Of the streets, is
seeking the aid Of the state militia to
eject the occupants. Nothing more
serious than street fight, resulting in
a couple of Republican bloody noses,
has yet occurred, but all parties are
armed, and unless some cooler councils
prevail there will probably be a serious
and fatal conflict. It is to be hoped
that the conditions upon which the
governor proposes to withdraw the
militia will be accepted by the Repub-
licans, and that public calamity
and further public disgrace may be
averted.
