The Atchison May Cut Rates.

The Atchison road will probably announce
to-day a rate of $1O.75 between the Missouri
river and Denver and $15 between Chicago
and Denver as the round-trip rates for ex-
cursiOn business. This will be a very deem
cut from the existing tariffs and will, of
necessity, compel all the other lines to come
in or lose the greater part Of the business.
The reduction Is not absolutely certain. but
the chances are very strong that the Atchi-
son will put in the reduced rates to-day.

1t Is we'll understood that Harry Craw-
ford and sons are now merely agents of
the parties owning and extending the Chi
cago & Southeastern. and careful inquiry
shows that neither the Lake Erie & West
ern nor the Louisville, New Albany & Chi

than a few weeks ago, and the Journal has
1T from a seemingly reliable source that
arrangements are making for the M0non
to operate the road when it is completed
from Muncie TO Brazil, Ind, which will
be IN a few weeks, and the parties who
now own the line are furnishing the money
to complete the extensions and to place
the property generally in good physical
condition. No one will question that the
Monon is In better position to operate the
Chicago & Southeastern than any other
company, as it can use it to great adj
vantage in shipping coal from the block
coal regions to the north, crossing the
Chicago & Southeastern twice and placing
the Monon in good shape for distributing
1t to many of the important towns of
northern Indiana, Ohio and Michigan as
well as Illinois. The Chicago & South

tage for indianapolis and southern In
diana business. hauling stone, coal, Ium-
Der and live stock from southern Indiana

FAILED TO FILE,
Large Numbe- of Candidates Said to Have
Failee to File Tn ir Expense Ace cunt.

1t appears that a large number Of the
township officers and one Of the CEN
trail committee have failed, as required
by the Australian ballot law, to file
their expense accounts. The trouble
seems to have originated with those
who have had no expenses, they hav-
ing the belief that a statement was
unnecessary. Attorneys claim that
| this makes no difference under the law,
and candidates are required to file
their statement whether they have been
to any expense or not.
a gentleman was in the city yester-
day from Sumner county and made the
statement that an examination had
been made of the records in that coun-
ty and IL was ascertained that over
fifty candidates had failed TO file the
statement required. The failure is
largely found to be with township Off
GERS, but it seems that they are not eX-
empt from the penalties for falling
to make their sworn statement within
thirty days after the election. The
minimum penalty is $40 and cost, or
ten days in the county Jail
The same situation is reported from
Cowley county, ana as the county at
torney is required TO prosecute all cases
for such failure. it is believed. that
many persons will be arrested and fined
under the law.
attention of the county attorney, and
he will look up the matter, and IL 1t is
found that failures have been wade he
may be required to bring action against
large number of persons who have
heretofore been considered lawabi0ing
citizens.
The enforcement Of this provision
will work a hardship in many cases, as
in some instances the entire renumera-
ton of the office will not be sufficient
TO pay the minimum fine Of SO and
cost.
A man elected as justice of the peace
in one of the townships said yesterday
in speaking of the matter:
'If the county attorney in the event
of a prosecution would permit the diff
ferent candidates to appear and enter
plea of guilty. il would save a large
cost 10 those who like myself have
failed 10 make the filing. Suppose
that the costs were run in the usual
channel. it would cost each candidate
SIS to make himself square. You see
the county attorney is allowed the sum
Of SO for prosecuting each case, and
justices can not proceed unless the in
formation is filed by the. county at
torney. Now if the county attorney
would permit friends of the candidates
to go before a justice of the peace and
file the complaints then there need not
be but a small cost, and / know that
the justices and constables would
throw their costs off and the result
would he that the trustee, justices
consta bleS and road oVerseers would
only have TO pay $40 each for their sin
OF omission. We can not set up a plea
of ignorance OF the provisions Of the
Australian law, as ignorance Of the
law is no excuse. \ large number
have trangressed the law, and the
best way out will be TO come up and
take our medicine, if we are required TO
do so.

MACHINERY AND ITS MAGIC.
Mighty and Wonderful Power That Makes the
Sunday Eagle

Never before in the history Of Wicn-
ita was there such a wh;rl CT wheels,
such d hum of belts. such click of
levers and chatter of machinery as
there was in the Eagle Office last night.
The new electric dynamo which fur
nishes the Office throughout withits brill
liant white lights, was bound headlong
on its swift journey, turning at the
frightful rate of 1000 times a minute.
The boiler was driving the engine tire
lessly with its reserve of steam. Up on
the third floor, the intricate tangle of
cams, cogs, levers, springs and clutches
known as the type-setter, but in re-
ality a type-maker, spun to their part
of the great labor of getting out the
most complete newspaper in the south
west. The telegraph instrument, in
touch with Chicago and San Francico,
kept up its perpetual chatter. The
stereotyping apparatus, ,withits brushes
and moulds and saws and moulten lead
was equally as busy. Down below, to-
wards daylight the great perfecting
press started up with a buzz, and de-
voured the huge roll of seamless and
unbroken white paper that passed in
blank and came out printed, folded, cut
and pasted, Sunday morning Eagle.
Before it could be printed the paper
you are reading this morning came over
a SENDER copper wire-over the Rocky
mountains, over the Atlantic ocean
over fields and farms; it came into
machine in the Eagle office and from
voured the huge rolls of seamless and
it's telegraphic jargon had to be trans
lated and spread upon paper in intelhg
able form. 1t has had TO pass
through the new type-setters which the
Eagle is putting in, and cast into lines;
it had to be classified and put into
forms; it had then to be transformed
into a piece Of paste-board and then
again to be changed to a solid piece Of
metal; and finally it had to become
part of the swift press and roll out the
thin printed sheet which you hold in

LORENZO is TARDY
GOVERNOR LEWELLING PR0CRAS.
TINATING WITH VACANCY.
Suspicion That He is Holding His No.
tice TO the Sheriff Back in the In
tereSt OF His Dead and Darned Old
Party-Wichita is Liable to be Dis
frauchised.

Governor Lewelling seems to be TAX
ing his time about calling an election
to fill the vacancy caused by the death
of Major Laurence, who died since his
election to the legislature. Monday is
the last Gay, for the convenience of a
majority of the voters of the district,
and if il is not called then two wards
of Wichita will be disfranchised or else
representative cannot be elected TO
enter upon his duties at the opening
session of the legislature, Jan. 8.
The governors duty in the premises
is, when he bcomes cogniZant OF va
cancy for any cause. to give notice TO
the sheriff to order an election TO I'LL
said vacancy.
Now, then, under the Australian ball
lot law the certificate of any nomina-
ton must be filed twenty days before
the election and if the said election
was held on Dec. 81 there would be no
time to call a convention TO make a
nomination. 1t is possible that if the
governor issued an order 10 the sheriff
tomorrow a convection could be
called hurriedly for the next day
Then the nomination could not
be certified to twenty days
before the election according to the
law, for leaving twenty days go by
after Tuesday would bring it up to
January 1st. Now, then, If the cleo
ton is held on January l, all the pre-
cincts of Wichita will be disfranchis-
ed, for that will be 1895, and the regis
tration of 1894 would have gone be-
yond its limits. In order to vote at
any election in any year the voters
must be registered ten days before said
election and that would be Impossible in
Wichita for the reason stated
and under the circumstances men,
toned. The result would be that a
representative would be elected by the
farmers only and they would, in all
likelihood elect Populist. This is pro-
badly the very reason that Governor
Lewelling has not yet notified Sheriff
Royse to call an election. The matter
is causing considerable comment in po-
ltical circles and not a few express
themselves in severe terms on the
conrSe of Governor .eyyeIljOC
