Twin Suns.

The star Alphn Centauri-the nearest
star to the earth ns far as we yet know
consists, ms the telescope shows, of two
suns, ono of which is five or six times
brighter than the other. But recent OBJ
servations by Mr.. Roberts at tho Capo of
Good Hope observatory havo led him to
the conclusion that tho two oomponents of
alpha Centauri, much as they differ in
brightness, arc really nosrly equal In
weight. Together they arc twice as heavy
as our sun. 1t seems to follow from these
facts that ono Of those twin SIMS Is losing

como only gigantic Opaque planet, while
Its companion will still continue to blnzo

efforts of LeSVenworth's leading Citi-
zens, but Col. Hawkins, of the Fort,
Warden French of the federal peniten-
tlsry, Governor Smith of the Soldiers
Home, and Warden Lynch Of the State
Penitentisry, deserve special mention
for their kindness and courtesy to the
visitors. No editor who attended the
meeting could help but feel that he
had proftsbly spent the time. RNso,
lutiOns were passed heartily thanking
all the good people who had assisted In
the entertainment, and they were not
adopted as q matter Of courtesy, as
many such are, but as an honest ex-
preston Of the feelings Of the mem bers

Beacon; Secretary, W. Y. Morgan,

Brown, Kingmsn Journal
The last circular letter issued by
Secretary Richard Wake In reference
to the March 3 convention of the State
Temperance Union indicates that the
body is getting ready to cut loose from
the Republican influences and take a
square stand as to the present admin
istratiOn. 1t says, among other things:
"Fesrs have been expressed that
strong effort will be made by the
friends of Governor Morrill, to capture
our convention so as to prevent any
denunclstion Of his course on prOhibi-
ton. The Temperance Union Is not
charged with the duty Of building up
or breaking down any man or party.
Its sole work is to further the work of
prohibition. If officials are unfaithful,
or parties are recreant to the cause,
they should expect and receive stern
rebuke at the hands of the convention.
This is no time for the use Of hOneyed
words and silken phrases. When an
executive, whose sworn duty it Is to
enforce the law, confesses his inability
to perform his duty, we opine that the
champions of prohibition in conVen-
ton assembled will not be slow or
timid in uttering strong words Of con-
demnstion."

The state Editorial Association.

The State Editorial Association is an
organization Of newspaper editors, pub.
fishers and writers. It's fourth annual
meeting was held at LesVenWorth
February II and Is. The attendance
exceeded 300 and it was unanimously
agreed by the entire number that as a
meeting place LeaVenworth was a de-
Cided success. The editors never had
seen LeaVenWorth at her best before,
and the impression made was Of such
a character as to be very satisfactory
to the most ardent friend that that
city has on earth. Under the leader.
ship of Col. d. r. Anthony, the vet.
eran editor of the Times, the people
united in successful effort to please
and entertain their visitors. The SEES
sions began Monday night with sd-
dresses of welcome and responses.
The principal address of welcome was
delivered by Senator Lucien Baker and
it was we'll received. Tuesday was
given up to sightseeing. First the
Fort was visited and drill of infantry
and cavalry witnessed. A visit to the
riding school gave the visitors an idea
of the manner in which cavalrymen
are drilled. In close proximity to the
military post is the federal peniten-
tiary, and this was visited next. In a
subsequent issue some things of inter
est In relation to it will be stated.
The editors had by this time reached
their normal condition-Were hungry
and they returned to the city on the
electric car line for dinner. After din
ner they went out to the Soldiers
Home where $500 unfortunate Veter-
ans are provided for, apparently in
good shape by the government.
A Santa Fe special was then taken
for the State Penitentiary. Here the
officers turned out In force and every.
thing of interest that it was possible to
show was shown to the visitors. The
conVicts numbered $40, of whom but
sixteen we're women. They were all
industriously at work in their respec-
tive positions. The editors were en-
sbled to see them march to their supper
and learn many things decidedly inter
esting about the manner In which they
are cared for. By this time the normal
condition above referred had again
been reached and the special hauled
visitors back to the city.

A Word About Breldenthal.

The following is from the Atchison
Champions "The Populist papers are
tearing their hair because Chairman
Leland is "a boss seem to forget that
Chairman Breidenthsl has only to
crack his whip, wink his eye, and the
entire POpulist press from Topeka to
Goodlsnd runs into its hole or gets on
the fence and rosrs as Chairman Brei-
denthsl may dictate. The PopuliSt
newspapers Of Kansas ought to sing
pretty low when 1t comes to speaking
Of "a boss If there ever was party
dictator who carried the press of his
party in his vest pocket, it is POpulist
Chairman Breidenthsl, and If there
ever existed a party press more sub
seryient and mental to It's party boss
than the Popullst press of Kansas, the
fact has net been noted in political
history"
Tie editor Of the Champion knows
that the above does John Breidenthsl
an injustice; he knows that it is I'M
true; he not only knows that, but he
admlres and respects him. 1t is, how
ever, essential in operating Republi.

operation and support. A boss, who
as a representative of the people does
that which the people want done, is
not boss at all, but q faithful public
servant.
Such comments IS the above from
the Champion are prompted by feel
ing of envy and indicate that the old
"boss-ridden" party realizes that the
young, vigorous PopuliSt party under
the Leadership Of fair, honorable'msn,
such as John Breidenthsl, is an irreslst-
ible opponent. How much sadness
and feeling Of regret must be wrapped
up in the bosom Of the honest Repub-
licsn when he looks back and thinks
what grand institution the party was
when 1t was led by Lincoln, who In
the nation was the same kind Of boss

Second, are out in arms against the Ma
t!onals who deserted their comrades of the
caucus and made certain the election OF
Colonel Macdonald, 1t being known that
the causes which lmpelIed them thereto
were not friendlness for Macdonald. but
rather TO secure their own interests.
When the Nationals find that they can
obtain no assistance from the new colonel,
who will undoubtedly be ordered to con-
centrate the different portions of the regi-
ment, now located in three armories, and
that Companies c and G will have to re-
move from their present armory and be
placed upon the same footing as the other
companies of the regiment, their boasted
superiority will fall to the ground.
This course has been strengthened by
the report of the committee appointed by
the djntant-general to investigate the
affairs of the Nationals, which it is claimed
from the testimony submitted has re-
ported that these two companies are
merely tenants of an association that owns
the armory, and that the State allowances
used by them were for the payment OF
rents, and not in payment for the prop
erty, and that consequently they stand on
the same basis as the occupants of any oil
the other armories, and can claim no con-
sideration as the owners of the armory oc-
cupied by them
