the preliminary gathering, the first

morrow. 1t will have the use Of

Summer will be more convenient
for lawyers and business men who
find it hard to give up several
months in the winter. Under the
state constitution it is required
that every twenty years there
shall be submitted to the people
the question whether there shall
be a constitutional convention.
Under that requirement the ques-
ton was submitted in 1886 and
the vote was overwhelmingly in
favor OF a Constitutional conven-
ton. Nothing, however, was
done until it came about
that the Legislature and
the governor were of one political
faith, when bill was promptly
agreed on and became a law.
The convention will have de-
cided Republican majority. Joseph
Choate will probably preside.
The Constitutional convention
will consist of 1OS Republican and

The "Sentiners" Views,

The milwaukee Sentinel, in an ar
ticle headed Forest Fires" says:
'The first lesson to be learned there
from would seem to be the necessity
of protection from similar occur
rences." This is true. But the rea-
son given by the Sentinel for its opin-
ion is startling. Here it is. "ESpec-
tally on account of the large property
interests involved" A thousand or
so human beings have been burned to
death, but it is not especially" on
that account that protection is nee
eSsary. The Sentinel is not the only
professor of a creed that holds prop
erty as of higher value than human
ity. With a few worthy exceptions.
like the Chicago Times, the metrOpOl-
itan newspapers have given ample ev-
idence by their utteranceS upon the
Pullman labor troubles that they
profess this creed. The time is near
at hand, however, when a DewSpa per
that regards property as more sacred
than human life will have to die for
want of readers to make it flop

Objection is made to Naugle for
probate Judge that he does not dis
tribute the publication notices over
the county to the various newspapers.
The probate Judge has nothing to do
with this. 1t is left wholly with the
executors and administrators. Nau-
gle has the first time yet to dictate to
anyone where he should publish his
notices. In a very few orders for
publication the paper has been desig-
mated, but it was always after the
wishes Of the executor or admins
TRAITOR had beer aScertained without
even the suggestion of any particular
paper beforehand. That publication
notices have come TO the VOICE has
been wholly at the vOlitiOn Of the
parties themselves, sometimes despite
the suggestions that it would be as
well to insert the notice in the local
paper. When they are thus given
the VOICE however, we have to say
that we, being in the business, do
not refuse to take them and we doubt
very seriously if any publisher in
Sumner county would not do the
same. Does anyone doubt but that
the editor of the Sun would do it?
1t should be taken into consideration
that the VOICE is a very popular
newspaper in Sumner county, which
accounts for its very munificent pat
rOnage in that line. Perhaps the
Sun will have attained that degree of
popularity later on.

The Ne,o Era published by Cyrus
Corning is used as a campaign dOcu-

The Caldwell Ne,CS takes the same
course of the Monitor Press in trying
to show that Elder BOtkin is incOn-
sistent in denOuncing legislation that
was officially approved by Abraham
Lincoln, and still holding Lincoln up
as a patriot without guile. Both
these papers and the people who
heard Elder Botkin remember well
how he showed that Lincoln gave
these measures his official approval
under great protest and how he was
forced to do so by the necessity Of
providing money for the soldiers. 1t
was that or nothing, and no one re-
gretted it more than Lincoln. The
editor of the Ne,CS poses as a christian.
How can he thus misrepresent man
and harmonic it with his christian
principles? Oh, neighbor, don't COM
promise your Saviour thus, just for
the sake of bOlstering up a corrupt
and declining political party. You
will find it Improbable in the end.

Dubois, Of Idaho, says:
He was one Of the strong figures
in our party. In my own state, as,
indeed, in all about him, including
California, there is no man whose ex-
ample would have more profound ef-
feet. The Populist party Of the en-
tire west is stronger today by twenty
five per cent than it was the day be-
fore Senator Jones made this change. .
