There's nothing new to DO said
about tho seasons. Tho quotation
from Riley's verse about sums up
the variablcncss Of the three months
that include the spring: March. the
same old clustering roystercr, fore
ing the dust down your throat !;
fretful April, that bats you with 4
sunbeam, to wet you with 4 shower;
May, playing the coquette, hover
ing betwiXt flowers and frost; they
are all and always the same
There's nothing new, either, in the
way Of spring sensations. There's
the general breaking out Of men,
women, and children, that is rs
much sign of tho season as the
budding branches of tho trees.

Stone, the PopUhst nominee for Sena-

The Local Elections Result in Opposition
Gains in County Offices

The recent election in Kansas was
largely of local character. Thirteen
District Judges, two State Senators and
four Representatives were elected. The
county offices filed we're Clerk, Treas
urer, Register Sheriff, Surveyor, COro-
ner and Commissioners in the Second
district The Representatives and Sena-
tors were elected to I'LL vacancies The
elections for District Judge were regu-
lar elections for the full term Of four
years i'll every case except in the Ninth
district, where there was a vacancy for
a short term of two years.
The returns show the election of the
following Judges: Ninth district, M. p.
Simpson (Rep); Tenth, John T. Burris
CDem.); Fifteenth, r. M. Pickler (Rep.);
Seventeenth, A. C. T. Geiger (POp);
Nineteenth, W. T. Mcbride (Dem.);
Twentieth, Ansel R. Clark (Rep);
Twenty-hrst, R. B. spilman (Rep.);
Thirtieth, r. f. Thompson (Rep.);
Thirty-frst, F. G. Price, (Rep) Thirty
second, w. E. Hutchison (Rep); Thirty
third, J. e. Andrews (Pop.) Thirty
fourth, c. W. Smith (Rep); Thirty
fifth, William Thomson (Rep.). The
Populists had the Fifteenth district four
years ago but lost it this year. To make
up for this, they lost the Nineteenth
four years ago, and gain it this year. So
far, therefore, as District Judges are
concerned, there is neither gain nor loss
for either side.
In legislative matters there is little
change. Senator Harris seat in Leav-
enworth was vacant and was filled by
the election of ]. G. Stone (Pop.), while
the vacant seat of Senator Wallack
tRep.) in the Atchison-J Jackson district
was filled by the election of r. T. An
drews (Rep). The Senate stands with
out change. Andrews defeated ex-Gov-
ernor Click, who, in spite of the fact
that his home county went Republican,
carried it by rs; but a Republican ma
jority of 661 in Jackson defeated him.
The vacant seats in the House were
from Lyon, Grant, Barber and Lane
counties They were held in the last
Legislature by Representatives Lam
bert (Rep,), Maxwell (Pop.), Patton
(Pop.), and Lobdell (Rep). No reports
have been received from Grant, but in
the other three districts Republicans
were elected. This was doubtless due
to the fact that little interest was taken
in the fight in view of the fact that the
representatives. will never serve
unless a special session is called.
The returns now In the hands of the
Advocate from the counties Of Kansas
are complete, except from five counties.
They are Cheyenne, Grant, Stanton,
Stevens and Thomas. 1t is impossible
to sort over the newly-elected officers
and determine the politics of each, so
they will be shown in the following
summary as Republican and opposition:
