The G. A. r. Claim It.

EMPoRIA, Kan, Jan. l4.-An in
junction was obtained in court
here by the Grand Army OF the Re
public restraining the city council
of Emporia from giving the posi-
ton OF assistant engineer at the
waterworks to one Owen Thomas
in preference to an old soldier
named w. A. Thompson, both OF
whom made application for the po-
sition. In their petition to the
court the Grand Army men say
that Thomas is incompetent, while
Thompson is in every way quail
fed to fill the position, and that,
in accordance with the laws OF
Kansas, he is therefore entitled to
it. 1. E. Lambert and Judge j. j,

the suit. 1t is intended to make a

Kentucky will not see a demo-
cratic senator wanting from that
state il in her power to prevent it.
That vacancy, caused by the death
of Wilson, will be filed before
there is any balloting in joint SEES
sion for senator. The two popu-
lists could determine the matter at
once for either side, but they are
dividing it between them and az
ford no solution Of the situation.
Blackburn is not the man to lose
his head in an emergency and he
is too crafty to permit any unfa-
vorable action that may be avoided
by a policy of delay. The outcome
of the contested election cases is
the key to the situation and what
will come of this cannot be known
until the returns are before the
Legislature and the report passed
upon. If it is so clear case for
the republican contestants that
the fair men of the legislature will
not sanction the steal, a republican
senator will be the result, but
there is little to be hoped for in
this case beyond what can be alb
solutely forced by the argument of
numbers.
