Governor Stone did not disap-
point the friends of honest elections
by issuing a commission to Keshler
as county marshal, says the Kan.
sas City Journal. True, it would be
rather inconsistent for the commits.
sion to be issued simultaneously
with the indictment of the recorder
of voters on the charge of permit
ting the original returns to be alter
ed and forged figured substituted.
But sometimes consistency is not
the distinguishing characteristic of
official actions.
By refusing to sanction the theft
of the Office, which was more glaring
and insolent than the stealing of the
other county offices, Governor Stone
has demonstrated that he is in earn
est endeavor to protect the rights
of the people. He also demonstrates
how powerful is one honest official
in the right place and how etfectual.
ly he can thwart the dishonest efforts
of a disreputable gang.

of representation to be one vote for

cast for Judge Black at the election

Whereas, It is our opinion that
the Only authority upon which the
Democratic State central committee
would be warranted in calling a
State convention at this time, or any
other, for the purpose merely of
discussing the future policy of the
party would be the request or de
mand OF the maj ority of the body of
the party expressed through the
proper channels, and in a legal man
ner; and,
Whereas, la the calling OF a con
vention for the purpose of discuss
ing an abstract proposition in
year when there are no candidates
we realize that we will be establish
ing dangerous precedent and one
that should not be followed save in
response to the officially expressed
demand of the party; and,
Whereas, The party has thus far
expressed no such request or de
mand; therefore be it
Resolved, That this committee
refrain from action upon the gues

Resolved. That this committee,

ascertained.
A dog belonging to Mr.. Compton, of
