The smrgglcr Water.

The pumps on the lower level Of the
SmuGgler mine at Aspen are covered by
water and the lower level is flooded.
This does not shut down the work in the
mine above this level as the water lacks
thirty feet of the seventh level. 1t will
take thirty days to get in other pumps
to exhaust the water. Had the Free
Silver company gotten in their big
pumps possibly the water could have
been held, or if the Mollie people mad
made connection with the lower level
Of the Smuggler and set pumps there
the flood could have been handled. AS

apparently rich placer gold district in
south Santa Fe county. The find was
made by the pioneer native placer
miner, Pablo Arando, who, with his

there. The features Of the discovery
are that it is four miles distant from
any placers ever before worked, and
that the gold in the gravel is very coarse
and therefore easy Of extraction.

pointed Populist superintendent Of

the falsehood will 90 on until the end
Of time, probably. The Lawrence
World, however, makes a good start
at catching up with 1t as follows
because the board Of regents saw fit
to appoint man as superintendent
Of grounds at the university who was
not recommended by the politicians
these same fellows are in rage 1t
is too bad that the regents had the
telnerity to face the wrath Of the
Lawrence politicians but they did it
and the old world will continue to
wag away. As matter Of Informal
ton the World might mention that
Mr.. White was endorsed by such men
as Mayor selig, A. Henley, G. Grow
enor, j. D. Bowersock and others.
Mr.. White is a Republican in politics
and man whose qualifications are
beyond question His appointment
is endorsed by everybody here save a
few politicians who are chagrined at
their failure to dictate to the regents.

Nr. Drsidenthal's Record.

Some Of our esteemed Pop contem-
poraries are growing red in the face
bowling that John W. Breidenthal is
a great and pure statesman and has
made model bank commissioner.
They profess to believe that he has
not, as the rest Of the Pop State off,
cials seem to have done during their
brief span Of power, regarded public
Office as . private snap, in face Of the
evidence. G. A. Clark Of the June
ton City Republican has been at
some pains to look up the record Of
the office under Breidenthal and
makes a remarkable showing from
official documents Of retention OF
funds illegally. He says;
The investigation Of the Office Of
Commissioner Breidenthal by the
State accountant shows that from the
time he assumed the Office in March,
1898, he has persistently and contin-
uously violated the law. Instead Of
turning over fees collected immedi-
ately as required by section a. he
commenced retaining them in his
own private possession until, start
ing in with &4S5 held back from col
lections Of March and April 1898, he
gradually accumulated sum in his
hands so that on Nov. 80, 1894, he
held $4.439.30 Of fees collected be-
yond what he had paid over to the
State treasurer. Why did he do thisP
1t was not necessary for either his
salary or expenses, because the law
provides for their payment direct
from the treasury, and he could not
lawfully use one dollar Of the money
collected by him for any purpose
whatever. 1t must be Immediately
turned over to the State treasurer.
Personally Mr.. Breidenthal Is q
genial and pleasant gentleman, but
II he cannot explain the records Of
his Office better than he has done
thus far he ought to go-and he
probably will have to.

Can't Bring Suit.

The quo warranto proceedings by
which Judge Lucien Earle Of the 25th
district proposed to settle the matter
Of the constitutionality Of the judicial
apportionment law have come to an
unexpected halt,
When Judge Earle presented his
papers the supreme court intimated
that such an action was premature
Just now and could have no standing
In court until after October ID. Ac-
cordingly he withdrew them. He
hardly will wait until that time TO in
stitute proceedings, as It would be
too late to get decision In time for
the November election. Therefore,
II is expected that he will get the
matter before the court in another
guise. A ''straw man" may be put
forward to ask for nomination papers
and bis right be attacked in court.
This could be done at any time before
October !.
BY the terms Of the law, the
Twenty-iifth district will cease to
exist October 10, but Judge Earle
will continue to draw salary until
January, when the term for which he
was elected will end. Judge Martins
term, too, will end In January. The
enlargement Of the Ninth district
gives to it two Judges Of the same
class after October Is, and Judge
Earle expects by his action to settle
the entire question Of the constitu-
tionality Of the legislative act abol-
ishing not only the Twenty-iifth dis
trict but four or five other districts
and also adding to this, the Eighth
district, the county Of Marion.
The matter should be settled in
some way as soon as possible. Fair
ness to people and candidates alike

The man who showed the most
sense at the state temperance meet
ing at Topeka was Gov. E. N. Morrill,
Of Kansas. The convention was con-
cocted and conducted as kick on bis
administration. 1t was called and man
aged BY men who want to drag down
the Republican party and concluded
that IL could best be done by that
means. 1t did not contain a repre-
sentative delegation from any town
in Kansas and its resolutions were a
series Of grumbles and iault-fndings.
True, honest temperance effort is
always commendable, but false hypo-
critical movements entered into
merely to pull down somebody or
something more prosperous or sue
cessiul are despicable. Examples Of
this kind Of movement have been seen
right here at home and their results
are well known. There is no evil
dence that single member Of that
assembly ever did single practical
helpful thing for prohibition at his
own home. They have mostly con-
fined their efforts to voting third
party tickets and kicking on the ad-
ministration.
Governor Morrill, made a manly
straightforward speech, denying
nothing, taking back nothing, show
Ing no resentment and giving no in
dications that he was among an
assembly that wanted to attend his
funeral. He told them what they
should have known before-that
local sentiment will mainly be
responsible for law enforcement.
The assembly was very much dis
satisfied with Gov. Morrill,. He prov
cd himself gentleman and their
hope that he would abuse or yillify
them was disappointed.
