The Kansas Decision.

The constitution of the United States,
and doubtless also the constitution Of
Kansas, makes each house the sole judge
of the election and qualification of its
members. The trainers of the federal
constitution certainly intended to pro-
hibit the interference of any judicial
officer in controversies pertaining to the
election of members of congress, for
they explicitly declare that the house
shall be the sole judges of all such ques-
tions. IF it were otherwise, the Judiciary,
instead Of being a coordinate branch Of
the government, would hold in its hands
the power of controlling the member
ship of the legislative branch.
The great wisdom of this restriction
has been shown IN repeated failures of
the Judiciary to rise above partisanship
in dealing with political questions. From
the five members of the supreme court
in the Tilden-Hayes electoral commits
sion down to this Kansas instance the
Judges have invariably divided on party
lines, and the party that has the major
ity Of the court wins its case.
The Populists in November carried
Kansas for Weaver; they elected the gov
SEnor ana returned maJOE1Gy Oh Tie
state senate. IF the Topeka court had
gone into the contested election cases, il
would have found that the Populists also
elected majority of the lower house
and had right to organize it. But the
court stopped short of that point.
Whatever happens at Topeka in the
next few days, the whole question of ths
courts action should be made promi-
nent issue in the next Kansas campaign
The people of all the states need better
means of settling political disputes.-St
