Mr.. MuRAT HALsrEAD never did
admire Mr.. Bayard even when he
lived away out in Ohio, nor does he
admire him any the more since he
came East to live. And now Mr..
Halstead says the country knows
three things of Mr.. Bayard:
I. That he is the personal repre-
sentative OF a family historic for
office holding.
2. That he denounced Abraham
Lincoln because Beauregard BON,
barded Fort Sumter.
;. That he is, in Western and
Southern phrase, Wall street gold
bug. The fact that his influence in
Baltimore prevente German from
holding his State against Cleveland
and beating him tor the nomination
is not so widely known or taken
| into account. How are these things
to be squared witt the Populists
How is discord to be prevented
where differences in doctrine are SO
pronounced?

Gov. Brown has selected three
good citizens of Cecil county to repre-
sent the tax payers of the county in
his proposed Tax Convocation, and no
objections can be urged against them.
In view however of the fact, that so
large a percentage of tax payers of the
county are Republicans, Governor
Brown would have shown better judy
ment, in giving them one representa-.
tive in three.

PRESIDENT HARRIsON's appoint
ment of a Southern Democrat OF
SO pronounced type as Judge Jack
son to a seat on the Supreme Bench,
has been commented on unfavorably
by many prominent Republicans.
And we think with very good cause.
If the President had reason to
believe, that no Republican whom he
might appoint would be confirmed
by the Senate, he still should have
made the appointment, and let the
responsibility OF its rejection rest
with that body. This would have
filled the measure of his obligation
to his party, and rid him OF the sus-
picion OF unwelcome mugwumpery.
This talk about rising above ones
party,-an1 broad minded patriot
ism,-is all very well as matter of
sentimentalism in politics, but when
ones opponents are practical politi-
clans of the Tammany spokesman
type as are Mr.. Harrison's, good
wholesome display of loyalty to the
Republicans who stood up to him in
his recent defeat, is better feeling
to vacate the White House with,
than airy amount of maudlin senti-
mentalism falsely called-patriotism.
The fact OF the matter is-that
President Harrison is too eminently
respectable-and a little too much
OF the Sunday School type of politi-
cian-to command popular follow
ing.
This was evidenced all along the
Repu H. IT. fall, where indif-

Two Cases Settled.

The supreme court of Kansas handed down
ito decision In two of the contest cases; set
ting later hour for hearing the facts in the
Rosenthal case and in the Coffey county
tie case.
In the Jackson county case. in which Ed
Shellabarser. the porulist candidate, wanted
his seat because the last lsgisla alive appor-
tionment did not include the city of Holton
in the district the court held that tho city of
Holton rightfully belonged IN that district
and vas. evidently, omitted by legislative
error and that the citizens of Holton. who
are not in any o. ner legislative district,
should not be disfranchised, decided the case
against the populists.
In the Republic county case in which the
populist candidate, j. ". Wilds, asked for
the seat for which J. NJ. Foster hollis the
certificate, on the grounds that a part of the
tickets we're misnumbeIed and that those
tickets upon which the nun Der of the district
was given as the I'D, inSteld of 6lst, shou d
not have been counted. The court said that
the boun laries of Republic county and the
6lst district are the same and that under the
old apportionmcnt part OF the county was
in the I'D 8 riot. The misnumbering of
the tickets WAS evidently clerical error and
a. the people who used the misnumbered
tickets intended to vote for the candidates
whose names were on the ticket they should
not be dlsfranchlsed on account of cleri-
cal error.

WAsz1Noros, D. c.. January 6.-Mr Otis,
OF Kansas, offered IN the house bill Great.
ing department of transportation and pro-
viding for the construction of the Nicaragua
ship canal. The department is to have een.
sral supervision of carrying tho trade o: the
entire country and to exercise all powers of
the Interstate commerce commission. which
- abolished. On his appointment the Sec
Rotary of transportation is to maize a COM
mission of three persons. one from the At
lantic slope. one from the Mississippi valley
and one from the Pacific slope. to be known
as the Nicaragua canal commission, whose
duty is made to proceed to Central America
end to inspect the work performed by the
Maritime Canal company and report what
treaties etc, are necessary, to give the
United States full control of that waterway.

The Chic and Choc Lobby.

WASHINGTON, d. c.. January THE pres
ident sent to congress the treaty with the
Pawnee Indians, and also the treaty with the
Kiowas, Comanches and Apaches, made by
the Cherokee commission. The treaties
were accompanied with bills prepared by
Secretary Noble, in compliance with terms
of the treaties which were approved by the
president.
This places all the treaties for lands in
the Indian and Oklahoma territories made
by the commission before congress, with
bills covering the same. Delegate Harvey
has now all the material before him for con-
structing an omnibus bill to cover all treat
les made by The commission, excepting the
strip treaty. He hopes to be able in a few
days to complete the omnibus bill. and get
1t started through the Legislative mill.
The terms in the treaties to be included in
the one bill are such as to make it possible
to make a bill of this sort. He proposes to
frame the bill in such a way thai none of
treasury. but the Indians will get their money
as soon as it is received at land offices from
the settlers who locate on the land.
This easy financial feature is made part
of the bill in ORDER to avoid the open opposl-
tion of the Holman class of statesmen. The
omnibus plau calls for radical change in
some of the treaties. The treaty with the
Kansas Comanches and Apaches provided
for the payment of s.. coo, 600 in all for their
lands. OF this amount $500. 600 to be paid
within four months after the treaty Is rati-
fed, $4,000 to be paid in one year, 500, 600
to be paid within two years and the remain
ing s., SEQ 90 to be placed in the treasury at
per cent to the credit of the Indians.
The obstruction to the scheme that is
feared is that the 'Chic and Choc' lobby
may succeed IN getting 81, 100000 rider on
the bill, to be applied where it will do the
most good"

Speeches Galore,

The reception gwen the incoming state
administration of Kansas in Representative
hall was patterned after the POLITICAL picnics
which have become SO common in Kansas.
There were speeches, no end; songs. cheers
and 9loriticatiOn.
Here is an extract from one speech, given
a. a sample-Congressna Jerry Simpson
said:
The struggle in this state was not between
the peoples party and the republican party,
but between the peoples party and the rail
road corporations. You have beaten the
Santa Fe railroad and you must take charge
of the government. You must organize the
legislature in this hall tomorrow and
wouldn't lot the technicalities of the la.
stand IN the way. Call this revolution if
you will. do not favor revolution in this
case, out only as a last resort, but see to it
that you organize the legislature here to
morrow.
Congress is a great failure for getting
justice for the people as the legislature in
this state, for corporation is enthroned there.
Not one measure for the benefit of all the
people has passed those two houses for twen-
ty-ive years."
He advocated the Australian ballot Law
and the right to vote being granted to every
free horn citizen regardless of sex. and he
also said a maximum freight bill must be
passed.

Kansas Legislature.

Pandemonium reISI,ed in the hall of the
house of representatives in the Kansas state
house from noon until nigh, and then seemed
to be indefinite in its continuance. Repub-
iican members ranged on one side of the
hall, elected a speaker and clerk populist
members standing on the other side did the
same thing. Republicans numbered 6S,
populists, IS. Republicans made motions,
their speaker declared them; populists fol-
lowed suit. Republicans raised committee
to wait on the governor to apprise HIM of
the organization Of the house. This action,
and about everything republicans did was
followed by similar action by the popalists.
The republican committee to wait on the
governor went out to perform, that duty and
were refused admit,ance to the governors
Office.
1t seemed at last tidings from the capitol
that the republicans were acting quietly,
were seated and resting, outstanding their
strength for the possible occasion of the
trial of endurance as to which could stay
there the longer time; while the opposition
were screaming speeches from all parts Of
the hall

A Kansas Wizard.

LINCOLN, NER., January 10.-The novel
case. the first of it, kind ever tried, came IN
in the district hare. Dr.. W. B. Sinshsr, Of
Goodland, Kan, last July contracted with Q
syndicate of Lincoln capitalists to bring
rain within three days for $1,000. Tho
rain came on time, but the syndicate refused
payment and demanded proof that it was
SinsheT's rain. The wizard was ordered to
bring his apparatus into court and he COM
piled. It consisted of two immense mills,
jars. galvanic battery, copper wire. molten
emo, . pair of gigantic tunnels, the whole
thing connected with small tubes, ono of
which was supposed to discharge the cheml-
cal solution into the outer air. After q long
argument the court decided that Sinsher
need not disclose his formula or demon
strate how be brought down moisture He
swore solemnly that he produced the rain
and got judgment for $1,000.

Pullman Denied Monopoly

TOPEKA, January The clerk of the
United States circuit court has received
Judge Riner's opinion in the case of the
Pullman Palace Car company vs.. the NJ. K.
& T. Railway company. 1t denies the Pull
u'an company the Injunction asked for to
event the railroad from using Wagner
ara. The order which accompanies the de-
cislon further dissolves the restraining or
der which was granted for the same pur-
pose.
This decision Leaves the case As it was be-
fore the in JUNCTION was asked for. and the
''Katy's" contract with the Pullman COM
pany is at an end. The railroad, it Is said,
will begin at once the use of Wagner cars.
and it is probable that other western roads
will follow suit as soon as their present con-
tracts run out. The decision ia of great inn
portance, for ii displaces, for the present
time. Pullman cars on western roads.
Judge Riner is at his home In Cheyenne,
and sent the decision from there. The Opin-
ion covers fifteen typewriter pages.
