M0RRTLES COWARDTCE, THAT'S
ALL

A good many people and several Re-
publican newspapers are criticising Gov.
Morrill, for his assertion that the prohi-
bition law can't be enforced in localities
and towns where the sentiment does not
favor its enforcement The governor
told the exact truth. The people in any
city in Kansas can enforce the laws If
they want to. A citizens committee of
aggressive prohibitionists can enforce
the liquor laws, even in Leavenworth,
but we don't hear of any citizens COM
mittee organizing. There is also com
plant that lotteries are running in Atchl-
son and Wichita, despite the Cubbison
law. If this is true. there's no excuse
for it. Those counties both have county
attorneys, and the lotteries can easily be
stopped if Atchison and Wichita desire
them stopped To lay down and cry for
the governor to enforce all the laws is
the silliest of baby Observation-Disclosures
City Union.
What inane sophistry is the above; it
deserves notice, however, for it is the
plea made by all the nullifiers and law
breakers. Leavenworth, Atchison and
Wichita are not independent states. They
are parts of Kansas and subject to her
laws
South Carolina made the same mistake
in 1851 that those cities are making
She thought herself an independent
nation, and that she would disobey the
federal laws and the constitution, because
"loeal public sentiment" was not in &C
cord with them. She learned to her
sorrow that there was authority superior
to hers.
"Local public sentiment" in parts of
Tennessee and Kentucky is opposed to
paying the internal revenue tax on
whisky, but the Iawlessness there can
not be justified on that account and is
put down with firm hand.
1t doesn't require the militia to close
the joints in Wichita, Leavenworth and
other towns 1t merely needs the right
kind of police board which the COVER
nor can appoint Given the firm moral
support of the governor, police board
of the right character could stop the
violation of the law anywhere. There
would be no "war" People do not shed
the blood of patriots over beer kegs and
whisky bottles Let the liquor sellers
once realize that the administration
means business and they will quit.
Governor Morrill, is a political coward
in the face of this question, and the law
violators know it.

The world at large does not seem yet
to have heard much about it, but there
is quite as romantic if not so extensive
a boom in gold mining now on in
Alaska as there was in 1849 in Cali
fornia, and the extent of the boom is
limited not by the richness and magni-
tude of the deposits of yellow metal, but
by the means of reaching them.
Alaska is an enermous territory. It
covers go, 900 square miles, being al
most one-third as great as the United
States, to which it belongs. It has a
wonderful system of rivers, the largest
of which, the Yukon, is 1900 miles
long, and empties into Bering sea one
third more water than is carried to the
gulf of Mexico by the Mississippi. The
Yukon has a delta so miles wide, with
many mouths, only four Of which have
been explored, and it carries so much
mud into the Boring sea that the waters
of the latter are too shoal for ocean
steamship navigation for the distance of
80 miles from shore
It is near the head waters of this
great river that Alaska's gold fields lie.

THE present administration evidently
believes in publication by repentance
since the father of Populism has been
appointed to the position of farmer at
the reform school over the heads of
clean, respectable Republicans. There
seems to be more joy over one lost sheep,
black though it be, that returns to the
fold, than is evinced over the ninety and
nine that went not astray. This last dis
grace is probably a part of the great
scheme of redemption" so perhaps we
should not complain. But it must be
confessed that it looks queer to the
uninitiated to see cast off Populists ap-
pointed to positions of trust and emolu-
ment when the state is spending thou
sands of dollars in an effort to get rid of

NAYLOR'S DROWNED MAN.
Thought He Saw a FIoater Under the
Tr1Iaxy e.

Thought He Saw FIoater Under the
Trolley Car Bridge.
The story of SHERIFF MAYORS drownd-
ed man" has furnished a great deal of
amusement during the past week among
those who heard of it.
Naylor is the sheriff of Jackson coun-
ty, out he is in Topeka frequently. There
is no jail of any safety in his county, and
be keeps many of his prisoners in the
Shawnee county Jail
a few days ago Naylor told Under
sheriff Tom Wilkerson there was
drowned man caught under the street
railway bridge in the river. When Viii
kerson went to dinner he looked closely
for any traces of ''f1oater," but he
couldn't see any, and never gave the
matter another thought until Naylor
spoke of it again.
Naylor also spoke to Sheriff Burdge
and Deputy Dan Jones and several police
men about the matter. They all took
turns looking for the doater, and they all
failed to find it.
Naylor left town and was gone a few
days, and the first thing he did was to
look under the rapid transit bridge
for his corpse and saw it He
went again and told the officers
it was a shame that the
remains of drowned man should be al
lowed TO stay caught in the debris in the
river at the heart of the city day after
day.
''You go with me-" said Tom Wilker-
son, land if you can show me any dead
man. I'll get him out of the water"
81 haven't got time to go now," re-
piled Naylor, "but can tell you just
where the place is, because 1 counted
the piers. It is on the east side of the
bridge between the eighth and ninth
pier from the south side"
With these instructions Wilkerson and
a few others went to the river and lo-
Gated the place. At length they found
MAYORS man. 1t was simply few rags
and paper which had f1oated together in
such way that man with lively i'm
agination might easily think it was the
head of person. Naylor declared that
he was right anyhow and contended that
the floAter must have got loose and float
ed down the river.

The courts no longer confine their
operations to multiplying the laws passed
by the peoples representatives but they
are beginning to assume the prerogative
of enact1ng laws. An instance of this
occurred in South Carolina recently. A

declared a law by the supreme court of
the state because the signatures of the
presiding officers of the two branches of
