POPS ON THE NORMAL.

In our criticism of the legislature, the
other morning, and of the dog in the
manager" influence which defeated the
founding of a state normal school for
this section of Kansas, we were, in one
particular, little too sweeping. proba-
bly,, in failing to specify. In speaking
of the short grass chumps, we alluded
10 the incorrigible Pop element known
as hayseeds. 1t was the Unintelligent to
whom we referred. There were forty
seven Republicans on the floor of the
house and from forty TO forty-three of
them voted at every opportunity to
1aise the bill AID pass it. 1t was the
Pops who beat the bill, and beat it, as
we said, through prejudice and ignor-
ance which were played upon by the
representatives of the cid hOg-pen COR
might not be enough for their pet insti-
buttons if another was established out
side of that magic square, or better,
the political pig-sty. When it comes TO
hoggishness there is no perceptible diff
ference between the representatives
hailing from that corner, whether they
be Democrats, Pops or Republicans
The Pop representatives from this coun-
~ were for the Normal, but they fritter-
ed away whatever influence they might
have had over their own crowd or 9TH
erwise they never had any influence
with their own party.

A NEWSPAPER CHANCE.

General John H Rice. so well known
in Kansas. who established a daily
morning paper, the Capital, at Sedalia,
some time since. has broken down in
health. Although the papers is -four
ishing he has not been able to get down
any editorial work. aud he therefore
has concluded to sell. or that he must
sell. The paper is we'll equipped, bright
and newsy, six-column quarto, publish
ed in a town Of tewnty-one thousand
people, and enjoys good circulation.
Here is a chance for some Newspaper
man.

Hillmon's was one F. A. Walters of
murdered for that purpose, and that
Hillmon was still living. Payment was
accordingly refused, and suit was
brought against the three companies
Jointly. On the first trial of the case,
with all the evidence that could be
brought, the claimant failed to estaD-
lish any case, the jury disagreeing. and
the presiding judge so plainly evinced
his belief upon the evidence that Hill
mon was not dead, that the claimant
declined another trial before him on the
ground that he had prejudged the case.
"a second trial resulted in a disagree
ment of the jury.
"A third trial resulted in verdict for
the claimant, which was set aside by
the United States supreme court.
"A fourth and fifth trial also resulted
in disagreements of the juries.
Each succeeding trial has confirmed
the belief of the companies that the
entire case was a fraudulent conspira-
CIV, attempted to be consummated by
means of murder, and they would clear
" have been remiss in duty if they had
not resisted, and continued to resist,
the claim, not only in the interest Of
other policy holders, but in the interest
of the public at large.
"A sixth trial is pending, which the
company will defend as before. 1t is
proper to say that in the last trial it
was in evidence that the claimant, Mrs.
Hillmon, had practically transferred all
her rights to her lawyers, so that in the
event of final judgment against the
companies, they are almost the only
persons that will receive any benefit
therefrom.
1t is to be hoped that the insurance
will pay no attention to the
assumption of power and the
fool order of Webb McNall, for every
policy holder is interested, not only that
no fraud shall be perpetrated on the
which carry him, but that
their business shall not be injured and
they thereby weakened.
