The stalwart Democratic state commit
tee held meeting in Topeka Saturday
to protest against Senator Martin ap-
pointing Populists 10 positions at his
disposal, This is considerable of a de-
scent: not long since these same people
protested just as vigorously against the
judges election, and went so far as to
boldly declare that he was not elected
and could never get his seat i'll the SEN
ate. This latest protest, which is an
acknowledgement that Martin is entitled
TO the seat, will cut no figure In the case.
neither as to his seat nor the exercise of
his influence if he gets it. 1t may be
observed in passing, though, that the
stalwartS need have no fears on the point
they raise; the Pops will not be in it any
more than the stalwarts will when it
comes to dispensing federal patronage.

The Ohio river is on its regular ea1ly
spring rampage. At CinCinatti, Mon
day, it stood several inches above the
danger line and was still rising an inch
and half an hour, With the unprece-
dental snow falls throughout the coun-
try drained by the Mississippi and Its
tributaries during the winter-it will be
next to miraculous if the lower country
escapes disastrous floods a little later.

The increase in the gold product of
tie world for the past year is set down
at S12, 600, 600, while the silver product
increased but 6,650,000 ounces, equal in
value to little more than $1,000, 900.
From this statement the gold craze that
has prevailed for several weeks would
seem to be more the result of design than
real ground for apprehension of silver

But You Didn,t Say So.

From the Lawrence World.
The Wichita EAGLE misconstrues our
statement about the new board of rail-
road commissioners not observing the
wholesale interests of Kansas. Our po-
sItion was this: That inasmuch as it
was impossible to have an appropriated
member of the board from either Wichi-
ia or Atchison, that the executive
council acted wisely in going outside
and selecting men not identified with
the shipping intereits of any part of the
state,

KELLEY IN KANSAS.

From the Chicago Tribune,
Notwithstanding the fact that Kansas
is prohibition state there are drunkards
! there, who often become disorderly and
have to be sent to Jail, whence they are
discharged in due course of Time with a
fresh, strong appetite for liquor, which
they proceed to crafty, finding no diff
Guilty in doing so in spite of the prohibi-
tory law. a bill has been drafted for
submission to the legislature providing
that any man arrested in state of intox-
ication shall be taken before a judge, and
if it is shown that he is in the habit Of
getting drunk he shall not be sent to
jail but to the nearest Kelley il
stitute, there to be kept till cured. There
is more common sense in this propo-
stion than has been shown in the state of
Kansas during the last few years. To
send man who has become the victim
of the drink disease to Jail is about as
reasonable as to send raving lunatic
there. To take man who is Il victim
of disease to hospital and cure him Is
humane and sensible. To perfect the
aforementioned plan the people of
Kansas ought to repeal their prohibitory
law, which cannot be enforced in the
cities and larger towns of the state.
Districts where majority of the people
are opposed to the sale of spirits should
be allowed to protect themselves by
local option law. Then those saloon
keepers who are allowed to do business
should be required, in addition to pay
ing their high licenses, to support the
necessary number of Kelley branch in
stitutes, where the mischief which they
had done could be undone at their
expense.

REORGANIzE AND PURIFY,

To the Editor of the Eagle.
As stalwart Republican, permit me,
in connection with thousands of others,
to endorse the sentiments expressed by
Republican in today's issue. "Why
was our man not nominated?" is tritely
answered by Republican. Too many
"old barnacles," too many broken,
pledging cormorants, who have sought
high places and secured them by trick
cry and falsehood, on the principle Of
you tickle me and I will tickle you"
regardless of the interest of the state or
the good of the country. If the Re
publican party wants to be success
ful two years hence, let those self
aggrandizing, forever-hold-on schemers
be relegated 10 the rear. When
the people of any part of the state have
by their votes expressed their unqualifi-
ed disapprobation by retiring some of
those schemers and legislatures have ex-
pressed the will of their constituencies
by choosing others for their places. Let
the scheming demagogues retire end not
endeavor, by some technical bubble
to retain that which theI Republicans do
not want them to have. Senator-eect
Ady is the choice of the legal legislature.
Let other ambitious Richmonds quit the
field and give the choice of the people a
chance to show the hvpocracy of some
of the Demo-Pops and the Anarchist
mob and revolutionints at Topeka.
Smash the rings and the Republican
party will triumph.

Mr.. Baker, the junction City gentle
man appointed as clerk in the labor
bureau, is a curb-stone biatherskite, who
is a cheerful enough fellow himself, but
sees through blue glasses that every body

right to suit Baker. A buy in a cornfield
is of more comfort to him than sixty
bushels to the acre.
