REPUBLICANS MONEY.
POpulists Want to Know What
1t Was Spent For
In the Recent Campaign and
May Investigate.
An Amusing and Entertaining Battle
Between Politicians May be
the Result

It is probable that the coming legis-
lature viii institute an inquiry as to
the disbursements that were made by
the various state central committees
during the past campaign The POpu-
lists claim that their committee com
piled with the law in regard to itemiz-
ing the amounts that were paid out
and the purposes for which the money
was used and that the Republican COM
mittee did not do so. They say that
while they nOminally complied with the
law that the statement that was filed
shows large sums of money as being
paid to Secretary BristOW and that it is
evident ON the face of the report that
these sums Of money did not go to Mr.
RristOW as compensation for his own
labor but were simply entered in the
statement as being paid to him when
in fact the money was disbursed by
him for campaign purposes.
Several members of the legislature
have talked about the institution of
such an Investigation Webb McNan.
Who is town today said in speaking of
the natter
There is no doubt that such an in
VeStigatiOn would be a good idea. Any
one that knows anything about Kansas
politics at all knows that it is absurd to
say that BristOW got six or seven thou
sand dollars from the teasurer of the
committee and that was all that was
done with the money. BristOW was
drawing his pay for the time that he
spent in the campaign from the state
treasury. He was getting a salary for
being private secretary to the COVER
nor at the rate of two thousand dollars
per year. OF course he was putting in
bis time in running the campaign, but
the committee was not paying him any
thing extra for that work. He simply
got that money and it was used in the
campaign and the entries in the state
ment that show the payments of money
to him and do not show for what pur-
pose or what disposition was made of
1T are simply eVasiOns of the law. The
same thing is true of Cy Leland. 1t is
an admitted fact in Republican circles
that he got forty thousand dollars from
the national committee and used it in
the campaign in this state. He has fill
ed no statement showing what he did
with it. Leland would come in under
section eight of chapter II of the laws
OF 80 known as the Douglass election
law. 1t is a good Republican law and
n fact is a good law. 1t ought to be
be q disposition on the part of the Re-
enforced though and there seems to
publican committee to eVade it in their
statement I think that it is quite likely
that the legislature win investigate

PAINT AS A NAVAL PERIL.
Department Experts Discover a Con
slant Menace to Vessel and Crew.

Washington, Dec. 26.-The naval ex-
perts have discovered that the paint
carried on board ships of war for pos
sible use during a cruise is a constant
menace to the safety of the ship and
the lives of those on board. A recent
report from Admiral Salfridge OF the
European station states that ne is con
WINGED of the dangerous character of
some of the paints furnished the service
and, Drohting by the warning given by
the experience on board a transatlantic
steamer, he has ordered that the paints

one steamer had q great hole torn
in it's bow by the explosion of paints
carried in the fOrepeak of the vessel.
The paints carried by naval ships are
carried in what is known as the paint
locker" in the bow of the vessel. and
it is now believed that the secretion of
the paints in that compartment may
lead to disaster.
The officials who have charge of the
matter say that there are many adul-
terauons, in these days of fierce cOmpe-
tiuOn, in the manufacture Of paints and
oils. and a great quantity of explosive
material finds its way into some of the
paints used for covering the bottoms Of
naval ships. The department experts
say that the danger is confined to a
few fancy productions, but the men
ace. they also say, is no less positive.
The discovery may lead to placing the
paints on the upper decks of all ships
as has been done by Admiral Selfridge
Turpentine is carried in a tank in this
exposed condition for the reason that
it's confinement below would furnish as
great if not a greater danger to ship
and crew than does the magazine.
