RAILROAD ASSESSMENTS.

1t has come to light to Republican
eyes at this late day that the POpu-
list party was supported and sustain
ed in last falls campaign by the
Missouri Pacific railroad company.
No one seems to have ever heard of
or suSpiciOned it until the present
time, and the suspicion and charge is
now based on the fact that in the
assessment of railroad properties in
Sumner county an inconsistency is
found which would seem to be a dis
elimination against the Santa Fe
and in favor of tile Missouri Pacific,
the Hunnewell branch being assessed
at 81, 900 per mile while the Missouri
Pacific POSSIBLY a better road Is
assessed at only $500 per mile. The
former was raised $1,000 over the
assessment of last year while the
latter was lowered 1920. This
would appear on its face as being a
discrimination but when We take the
whole assessment for the entire
state into consideration the inconsis-
tency largely disappears. 1t would be
difficult to make an assessment of the
railroad property Of Kansas without
making some apparent errors, but we
wager that the errors in the present
assessment will not exceed those
made by former boards. In making
the assessments certain general rules
and classiflcations are laid down
which when applied to some portions
of railway are slightly Inconsistent,
and we are free to confess that the
Hunnewell branch in our opinion is
out of proportion, but that it was

Senator VOORHEES, has introduced a
measure in the Senate giving the
National Banks authority to issue
Bank note currency to the face value
OF their bonds. The banks are now
only allowed to issue up to 80 per cent
of the face value of the bonds. 1t is
claimed by Secretary Carlisle, who
writes note to Congress accompany
ing the bill recommending its passage,
that this will increase the circulating
medium to the extent of $4,000, 900
and will afford temporary relief to the
country. This message is urged as a
compromise. 1t is passing strange
what nonsense can be bOlStered up
under the subterfuge of a compro-
mise. What would be the effect of
this measure: An addition of 49,
100000 to the money volume of the
country. Where would it be added?
To the capital ofthe banks. In other
words it would be gift of s19, 900, 900
to the banks. ANY paternalism about
that? How would the people get it?
by borrowing it from the banks. We
bankers are great financierS, aren't
we, And the great lights of Dem
ocratic simplicity are trying to palm
this off on the people as a ''compro-
mise" These great lights have been
telling us that we did not need any
more money in circulation but mas
much as they confess their mistake
why not issue it to the people direct
instead of to the banks to be loaned
to the people at what must necess-
arily be at this tine exOrbitant rates
of interest.

The young members of Congress are
utterly astounding the old fossils"
who have been there some years and
who have been accustomed to seeing
new members take a back seat for a
term or two after their entrance.
The new members, taking the cue
from Jerry Simpson and Tom Wat
son, are launching right out Just as if
they thought they were sent there by
the people for apurpose. LATE Pence,
the young hero from Colorado, made
a great hit the other day, following
Mr.. Bland in an hours speech. He
held up the record of Cleveland'S lick
spittle Secretary of the Treasury,
Carlisle, on the silver question, where
Carlisle had stated on the floors of
Congress that the gold standard would
be worse than war and pestilence for
the United States. Hurrah for LATE.
