SOL MILLER SAYS.

Judge Campbell, Commonly known as
"Tiger Bid assistant attorney general for
Sedgwick county. was last week tried on
a motion for disbarment. II was proven
by number of witnesses that he with
drew or proposed TO withdraw liquor pros
ecutions if the defendants would pay him
certain sums of money; but he produced
letters, showing that ne acted under in
structions from Attorney General Dawes.
The Calamity judge acquitted him. but
denounced Dawes. He thought he would
make a stroke in politics by this course
To man up a tree, it would appear that
Dawes had no authority whatever TO in
struct Campbell to do anything outside of
the law. If he had requested Campbell
to kill the join-keepers. 1t would have
been no defence If Campbell had done so.

WEST WILL DICTATE.

The committee on territories Of the
national house of representatives have
done an exceedingly foolish thing.
That committee, rather than act on the
bills admitting Arizona and New Mex
leo into the Union, adjourned
There could be no protest if the COM
mittee had done this because it be-
lieved that these two territories were
not fit for admission. But it believed
no such thing. Its only argument was
that those two territories were for free
silver and four more United States
senators in congress would block eff
fectually, and for long time TO come,
the plans of the gold mOnometallistS.
1t happened that a majority of the
committee on territories was goldbug
in its sentiments, and on these slight
grounds it secured an adjournment
rather than act.
This was political nonsense. We
have pointed out time and time again
the eastern folly of antagonizing the
west. That eastern antagOnism TO the
west is folly and based on foolish fears,
mittee. Even if enabling acts were
passed by congress and signed by the
president, which itself will take con-
siderable time. the territories do not
become states Immediately. A consti-
tutional convention must be held, con-
stitution adopted and the whole ma
chinery of a state set in motion, which
takes a great deal Of time. In the in
term, while Arizona and New Mexico
are going through all the manOuevers
necessary TO make them states, the sill
yer issue will have won or lost and for
good. And if the silver issue is to live
for years and become a bone of per-
petual strife, New Mexico and Arizona
will in the meantime grow to such pro-
portions that no president or commit
tee or branch of congress would dare
exclude them.
New England tyranny should be an
unknown factor in this government. 1t
has dictated creditor money standard
for itself as against the west and the
south; it cannot dictate the admission
of states. 1t has too many interests
at stake to precipitate sectional fight.
And if it were not frightened by what
it thinks nightmare, but which is only
demand for justice to the debtor
class, it would not make the idiot of
itself such as it did in the house COM
mittee on territories.
The west and the south are in pos
session of the United States senate.
New England and the east has grown
rich off the government and party pol
icies. There must now be an equal
division. The west, unlike the south.
is not in the Democratic party. Ii is
in the Republican party. Its presence
there is just as vital To the success of
that party as New England's presence.
1t will remain in the Republican party
and in the end dictate its policies as it
now dictates its candidates.
The sooner New England and the
rich creditor east realizes that fact the
better political company they will make
for the west in the future.

the capture of the capital of Formosa.
