day in April, by public schools Of
the state, in accordance with the
provisions of the law of 1889, which
commands the observance of such
a day. 1t directs that q uniform
program be prepared and sent out
from that office TO all the districts
of the state and the only question
about doing it this year is that of
expense. 1t has not been done
every year since the law Was en-
acted, but the day has been quite
generally observed according to
local arrangements.

From the kansas City Star.

From the Kansas City Star.
The Republican state committee
continues to claim that there is a
chance for the election of Governor
Morrill, and possibly some chance of
the other candidates on the state
ticket by a few hundred votes, but
the party leaders, among themselves,
generally concede the state to the
populists, although they do not admit
the claim Of fusion chairman Briden-
thai and Love that Leedy will have
$4,000 majority.
Fusion returns from eishty-eight
counties show a total majority for
Leedy Of 1870 and for Morrill, $500,
net majority for Leedy Of 7,71O.
To his friends Governor Morrill,
admits the loss of the republican
electoral and state tickets aud the
legislature.
Cyrus Leland, the Kansas national
committeeman, expressed his judge
ment of the situation in a telegram to
Henry O. Payne at Chicago yesterday
afternoon. 1T looks pretty dark out
here" he wired.
II Is the most disastrous defeat that
republicans Of Kansas ever have suf-
fered. In former elections since 1890
when they began to meet adversely,
they have managed to save something
out Of the wreck. In 1890 they saved
the governor and had hold.over
senate from the election Of 1883. In
1892 they saved the house, losing the
governor and the senate; John Mar
tin democrat, went to the United
States senate to join PETER, populist,
and a populist took seat beside two
republicans on the supreme bench.
In 1894 they won the governor and
the house, but the senate was still
popullst, although the republicans
had a majority on joint ballot, which
retired Martin from the United States
senate.
This year everything is gone--the
governor, both branches Of the legis-
lsture and consequently the United
States senator, five of the six judges
of the appellate Court-and the cleo
ton of Doster to be chief justice gives
the populists majority on the SUI
preme bench. In addition, all the
judicial candidates in the districts
which elected this year have been
carried by the fusionists, as have also
nearly all of the county officers.
From the returns so far received
the republicans make the following
estimate of the republican strength in
the two branches of the Legislature:
First congressional district, represen-
tatives, 8, senators 4; second district,
representatives 5, senator's none;
Third district, representatives l, sem
ators none; Fourth district, represen-
tatives 7, senators 8; Fifth district,
representatives 8, senators 3; Sixth
district, representatives 6, senators
none; Seventh district, representatives
Ia, senators l; total, representatives
As, senators IL. If these estimates be
correct the fusionists will have so rep
resentativea and 20 senators, a total
OF 100; majority on joint ballot So.
In the congressional contests, the
fusionists have elected Peters in the
second district, Rldgely in the third,
Vincent in the fifth, Mccormick in
the sixth, Simpson in the seventh and
Botkin at large, and the republicans
have elected Broderick in the first
and Curtis in the fourth.
In 1892 when there was fusion Of
populists ana democrats, as there was
this year, these counties gave Smith,
