Republicans Roasted.

j. w. Wright, of Independence,
writes a letter to the Capital dated
November II in which he finds fault
with the lenient treatment given Re-
publican School Flnd Commissioners
who willfully bought worthless bonds.
Among other things he says:

and Ives we supposed them honest,
but not one Of them could have been

the statute, but are to be extended to
include all conduct of an officer whether
in any manner connected with his Office
or not. II so, the doings which may be
investigated under the act of 1889 would
include substantially every private pee
cadillo incident to human weakness. If
the statute were to require that the Off
GERS who select the committee, and the
members Of that committee, should, be-
fore they are permitted to cast, not a
stone, but mud, first see that their own
garments are strictly white and spotless,
and no one were permitted to make COM
plant unless he himself were free from
taint similar to the charges he makes,
there would be little danger that an in
vestigation would ever be held. How
ever much we may desire that men
should be strictly pure and upright both
in their public acts and private walks of
life, We all know that every mortal par
takes, in some degree at least, of human
frailty and imperfection. The Legisla
ture, therefore, has wisely confined the
range Of investigation to the official acts
of the person charged, and this has gen.
orally, if not always, been considered as
the only legitimate scope of investiga-
tion. Of course, the commission of q
crime for which party is subject to ig-
nominious punishment is public offense
for which person may be removed from
Office, and provision therefor is made by
law" In support Of this position Justice
Allen cites the case of Commonwealth vs..
Williams, 70 Kentucky, AZ
Justice Allen shows that the commit
tee did not find Senator Rogers guilty of
official misconduct, and says: "It is not
shown nor is it claimed that there is any
proof OF his being drunk when he was in
fact, or should have been, attending to
his duties as Regent of the University"
He also calls attention to the fact that
the testimony showed that he was at all
times a careful, faithful and efficient
member of the Board Of Regents.
The advocate., 1895-11-20
The Explanation Does Not Explain.

Does Mr.. George T. Anthony, State
Superintendent Of Insurance, intend to
make an official explanation of his Off
cial language which is being quoted to
injure the fraternal societies? Or does
Mr.. Anthony think the newspaper inter
view is sufficient to save himself from
criticism? Mr.. Anthony's subsequent
letter, written to the Odd Fellows at
the recent session of their Grand Lodge,
would indicate that he meant about
everything he was at first quoted as
meaning. About the only thing to be
got out Of both documents, when you
boil them down, is that if he had the
power to do so he would suppress that
portion of the work of fraternal societies
which is commonly called fraternal life
insurance; and his further admission
that the law gives him no authority over
them whatever, which he says as if he
very much regretted it. All this makes
it much palmer that the frsternal socie-
ties have reason to congratulate them
selves upon the failure Of the attempt to
pass law by the last Legislature which
would have given Mr.. Anthony an oppor-
tunity to ruin the fraternities. This
will also serve to convince the fraterni-
ties that it will be wise to look to it that
no such law is passed in the future.

and they pointed with confidence to
the fact that they had carried out their
contract the year before, which was an
earnest that they would do so again.
That was all that was necessary. They
were taken at their word, with the re-
suit that they are again given a lease
of power. The executive officers will
again with uplifted hands before high
heaven swear to enforce the laws, and
with the lie fresh on their lips they will
wink at violations Of law. Thus is
this once grand party of Republican.

the situation. They can afford to make
the fight on that issue. They will not
compromise principle for office. They
cannot afford to do wrong for the sake
Of winning votes. No true Popnlist
would do that. In the end, right will
prevail. Why, then, should Populists
do other than rightp Why should any
one who loves justice, home and coun-

Wants to Increase the Army.

Gen. Miles, commanding the army,
has made his annual report. he la
ments the ungusrded condition of our
coast and thinks that money should be
expended in this line on the Atlantic,
Pacific and Gulf coasts. He says that
ne does not anticipate war In the near
future, but calls attention to the fact
that for 200 years there has not been a
period in the history Of our country
greater than thirtY.ave years in which
we were not involved In a war.
He recommends that a full regiment
of cavalry be assembled at Fort Riley.
In order to demonstrate the utility of
bicycles and motor wagons he thinks 1t
would be well to equip twelve COM
panies with these devices. He declares
that an increase ought to be made In
the regular army and that the increase
should be made In proportion to the
increase in population, and that an
army Of not less than one man to 1000
population and not more than one to
1000 people would be about the right
size.
He, recommends increasing the pay
and rank of officers, and thinks prl.

SENATOR ROGERS BEATEN.
The Supreme Court Holds That He Was
Legally Removed.

Governor, acting on the report of the
committee, removed him, the Senator
brought quo ,OGrrGr1tO proceeding to
GUST Moore, who was named to succeed
him. Last Saturday the Supreme court
decided against him. The opinion OF the
court was written by Chief Justice Mar
tin and concurred in by Associate Justice
Johnston. The court says:
"Inebriety is vice that cannot we'll be
hidden, A Regent might be drunk on
the streets of Lawrence, but sober at the
meetings of the board and while within
the campus or the walls Of the Univer-
sity, yet his example would be disgrace
full and injurious. In such a case it is
difficult to distinguish the conduct of the
man from the conduct Of the officer.
The findings of the committee would at
least imply that the inebriety Of the
Regent was of such notoriety and prox-
unity as to constitute bad example for
the students and others connected with
the University. This is immortality in
Office within the scope of chapter 239,
session laws of 1885,"
Associate Justice Allen dissented and
writes a separate opinion, from which
the following are extracts:
" X The title to this act in
terms covers only the appointment of
committees to investigate, 1t does not
even in express terms extend so far as to
cover their action in making an investi-
CATION, but in the case of Lynch vs..
Chase we held that the constitutional
provision ought to be literally construed
and stretched this title sufficiently to
cover legislation authorizing them to in
vestigate and report.
"This is the usual and ordinary scope
Of the powers of q Legislative committee,
and this might reasonably be expected to
be found in an act under this title, but
| am not aware of any instance in the
legislation Of this State, nor in fact of
any other State, where a Legislative
committee has been given the power to
try and condemn State official and to
make a report under which the Governor
acts perfunctorily, only in making re-
moval, and merely carries out the will of
the committee.
''Nowhere in the statute is there any
provision for an investigation into the
private character or unofficial acts of any
person holding public Office, nor is it
consistent with reason or public policy
that such Investigations should be au-
thorized. If this be the rule, no person
in public Office can ever be secure against
the malice Of enemies, or the jealousy or
animosity of political rivals. If personal
venslity, inefficiency, misconduct, i'm
morality and inattention to private duties
may be investigated, who so pure and
free from blemish that, when his conduct
is viewed through the eyes Of partisan
political adversaries, ample cause will
not be found for blasting his character,
and dismissing him in disgrace from the
public service?
"The people Of the State are indeed
fortunate when they secure men to ad-
minister their public affairs whose pub
lie acts are above reproach. II private
conduct is to be made the basis of inves
LEGATIONS, no courageous public official
who boldly defies the crowd OF greedy
