will take four perhaps eight years OF
Republican rule to wipe out the debt
piled up by the Cleveland administra-
tion, eight years before the country can
get back to where it was when Harri-
son was defeated. To the Wilson bill,
and the talk which preceded it, is
traceable the entire deficit of $4,000
600. And such a sum of contracted
debt in the time of peace.
Here is the difference between the
Harrison and Cleveland administra-
tons in nutshell Harrison paid off
$296, 100000 of the national debt and
left surplus of $124.OO0.OOO in the
treasury. The expenses of the gov
ernnent were not higher than the rev.
enues for single day during the whole
period. The Cleveland administration
has given us an addition of S163 .00O, 600
to our debt. The government has fallen
behind to the amount Of S225,0OO for
every day since Cleveland was inaug-
urated. This is $6,5O0.OO0 for every
month and sS1, 900, 600 for every year

pie in the fall of 1892 was put into

ABOUT A CHEF JUSTICE.

Judge W. c. Webb, the great legal
Pop. light, contributes a three column
suggestion to the Topeka Capital in
which be attempts to prove that it is
constitutionally necessary to elect a
chief justice TO the Kansas supreme
court this fall. II takes lawyer to
travel through wilderness of deci-
sions and a world or precedents to
arrive at what the average individual
takes in, unQueStiOnally at a glance.
A lawyer starts out with all the sup
positions that he can think of which are
in turn chased down and disposed Of
one by one. then all possible objections
are knocked galley west. Finally after
exhausting the legal vocabulary he
comes down TO the plain point which
he originally started out to disclose,
and which at no time was obscure to
those who were looking for it, nor
which wouldn't be to the lawyer was
not his life and training all bent in
the direction OF making white seem
black. The general statutes OF Kansas
declare. in so many words, that when
the Office Of judge Of the supreme court
becomes vacant it shall be filed at the
next general election. The supreme
court itself. having in a lawyer-like
way, discovered that general election
is general election, that is it is an
election general throughout the state,
such as we have every fall in every
county and precinct and township,
therefore there can be no question that

THE PRESIDENT AND HIS PARTY.

The great body of the Democratic
party have commenced, individually,
and by states and sections, to realize
that their political organization is in
the hands of Goldbug Grover, whom
the New York Sun unhesitatingly de-
clares is candidate for a third term.
All of his work II being directed to
that end. His decapitation of the gen
tleman from Maine is but an earnest
of what he conceives Of the efficacy of
his power. Behind him will Ne the
corporate and money forces of the
counry. Having met their terms and
fulfilled his part of the contract, hence
forth he will command. Every fed
eral recalcitrant head will 60 off with a
swish, every disobedient or mutinous
servant be promptly disciplined. No
such test of fealty ever confronted the
rank and file of the Democratic party
as that which they must individually
and collectively face in the coming
reSentatives must choose between
loyalty to Grover with plums Of federal
patronage for their supporters. on the
one hand, and their personal chances
of open opposition upon the other. AS
for the silver contingent Of the west
and south, it must eat crow in the form
of international bimetallism or other
wise be held to be party aliens and
rebels. Grover is no comprOmiser.
He leads absolutely or otherwise takes
a place in he tail end of the procession.
1t is an awful dilemma, politically
horrible, unprecedently threatening
and portentious of disaster.
There is cloud, if no bigger than
mans hand, still a cloud, hanging
about the western flank of the Repub-
lican party. 1t is a cloud whose silver
lining constitutes its most unpleasant
aspect. The chairman of the National
Republican central committee, a pro-
nounced silver man of Montana, talks
hopefully, and maybe he talks sense,
when he declares that the National Re
publican convention will resolve for
protection and double standard Of
silver and of gold. The Ohio plat
form, which declared for the double
standard, is the only indication up to
date that Mr.. Carter may prove a
prophet.
In all this one thing is plaintly evi
dent to everybody everywhere and that
is, it is the political leader, the pro-
fessional politician, who is in the fry

Topeka may not be good but her
people are smart, downright cute. In
looking over a list of the names Of her
most prominent taxpayers We find that
the richest man in Topeka, or the man
making the biggest return of property
for taxable purposes, is set down at
S11, AGO. As Topeka gets more out of
the state treasury than any town in
the state many times over there ought
to be some way to force her citizens to
put up their equitable share.
