STATE POLITICS.
1t VIII Be Simpson Against
Long Again
In the Big Seventh District
This Year.
RENOMINATING LONG
Will Make Simpsons Follow as
a Matter of Course.
Democrats i'm the Seventh Want
to Vote For Simpson.

The Populist politicians of the Sew
enth district are rejoicing over what
they term the disappearance of the
opposition to the denomination of Jerry
Simpson
They claim that the factions which
have been making an effort to create a
sentiment against Simpson have recent
~ come to realize the fact that Simpson
is a worker and continues to make the
POpuliSm of Kansas more or less inter-
esting and sometimes effective.
Simpsons attacks on Tom Reed are
popular among Kansas POpuliSts. An
other feature of Importance in the Sew
enth district is the Democratic vote.
Since the Democratic banquet the Dem
Ocrats are coming to Simpsons rescue.
This action is due to the fact that they
believe Simpson can defeat Long.
Charles A. Taylor, assistant state au-
ditor thinks the clouds will roll away
and that Mr. Simpson will be re-nOm1-
mated and elected.
There is no doubt about his election
said Mr.. Taylor, "and 1 believe he has
what might be termed a sure thing on
the nomination.
Simpson has made an excellent rep
resentative," says Mr.. Taylor, land so
long as he is faithfully performing his
duties and looking after the interests of
for complaint against him. Those who
know Simpson are we'll aware that he
has never Shirked a duty and is always
ready to do all in his power to aid his
friends. Personally I hope to see Mr.
re-nominated and believe the
POpulists of the Seventh district hold
practically the same view

Several Old Soldiers Are Sent
to the Poor House
Owing to the Crowded COndi-
ton of the Veteran Home.
THAT OR STARVATION
As Many Arrive at LeavepWOrth
Without Cent.
Yet Law Says They Shall Not
Be Sent There.
THAT OR STARVATION

LeavenwOrth, March SIN the last
few days several old soldiers have been
sent to the poor farm because they can
not be accommodated at the Home. This
seems disgraceful, but owing to the
crowded condition of the Home there
is no other remedy
County Clerk Julius Niehaus wrote a
strong letter to Senator Baker last
week in which he called his attention to
the overcrowded condition of the Sol
diers' Home
The government says the old soldiers
shall not go to the county poor house.
But what are we going to do?'' said Mr.
Niehaus, 1.-The old fellows come here
from all parts of the country, spend the
last cent they have got to get here and
then fail to get in for want of room.
The only thing left is to come on the
county, to be sent back, or taken care
Of A few days ago one came in from
Vermont, was in the home temporarily
and was then discharged for want of
room. He was old, had not a cent, and
had to go to the poor house"
The letter goes on to say that in the
writer's judgment the authorities at
the home are not to blame but congress
should provide more room.

FAILURE OF NEBRAsKAs Law.

The decision rendered by the United
States supreme court yesterday declar-
ing the Nebraska maximum freight rate
law to be unconstitutional will serve as
a reminder to the public that the exper-
mental stage of railroad legislation has
not yet been passed. The many at
tempts which have been made in first
one state and then another to regulate
or control the business of the common
carriers operating within a specified
territory of the United States, have cost
the people much money as well as vex-
alton of spirit for which hereturns have
been small, but there seems, as yet, no
disposition to change the plan of action
except as regards details.
In his own interest and in the in
terest Of the tax payers it might be
well for Gov. Leedy to consider his pro-
posed extra session Of the legislature
for enacting a railroad law, in the light
of Nebraska's experience as well as the
experience of other states. 1t may well
be doubted that railroad legislation or
boards of railroad commissioners have
so far paid interest on the investment.
In the Nebraska case the court con-
cedes the power of the state to fix rates
but at the same time declares that the
rates so fixed are subject to review by
the courts.
Justice Harlan said that the follow
ing principles must be regarded as set
tied:
First-A railroad corporation is a per-
son within the meaning of the 14th
amendment, declaring that no state
shall deprive any person of property
without due process of law, nor deny to
any person within its jurisdiction the
equal protection of the laws.
SecOnd-A state enactment or Tegula-
ton made under the authority of
a state enactment, establishing such
rates for the transportation OF persons
or property by railroads, as Will ad-
NIT of the carrier earning such
compensation as under all circum-
stances is just to it and to the public,
erty without due process of law and
deny to it the equal protection of the
laws and would therefore be repug-
nant to the 18th amendment of the con-
stitutiOn of the United States.
Third-WhiIe rates for the transporta-
tion of persons and property within the
limits of a state are primarily for its
determination, the question whether
they are so unreasOnably low as to de-
prive the carrier of its property without
such compensation as the constitution
secures and therefore without due pro-
cess of law cannot be so cOnclusively
determined by the legislature of the
state or by regulations adopted under
ats authority that the matter may not
become the subject of judicial inquiry.
This last proposition, Justice Harlan
said, covered the case in point. He then
proceeded to make an exhaustive exam
dnation into the effect of the enforce
ment of the rates prescribed upon the
business of the different Nebraska lines
showing the reduction to amount to
%. so per cent for the years 1891, 1892
and 1898. The result was to show that
each of the roads involved would for
this period have conducted their bust
ness at a loss, with only one or two ex-
ceptions, and those for only a short
while.

FIGHT TO DEATH.
Deputy State Oil Inspector Bauers-
cid in a Fatal ARRAY.

Burlington, March S.-A cutting
scrape occurred Sunday night at LIE
Roy, town u miles south of this, in
which one man, it is thought, will lose
his life.
Mr.. Decker, proprietor of the LIE Roy
flour mills, went to the house of F. S.
Bakersfield, deputy state oil inspector
under DR.. Wharton, to see him on some
business matters. While there the two
men became involved in a quarrel
growing out of a dispute in which Mr..
Bakersfield, it is said, accused Decker
with being too intimate in Bauersfeld's
family affairs. The quarrel came to
blows and Decker was elected from the
house.
AS he went down the steps Bakersfield
drew knife and made a slash at Deck
er, cutting a horrible cash across the
right cheek and jaw and down the neck.
The doctors gave it as their opinion last
night that Decker could not live.

DANGEROUS SURGERY.
Death Follows the Surgeons Knife
Not the Surgeons Fault, of Course
He Can't Help It-You Can.
Pyramid Pile Cure Cures Piles Quick
ly, Painlesslv, Without Danger.

Ay3 < d444SSSAV, w 1CnOuG Danger.
People go along for years suffering
with piles. They try this and that and
the other thing from carrying a buck
eye to getting treatment from a physi-
clan. They obtain temporary relief
maybe, but they are never quite cured.
A little strain in lifting, excessive ia
tgue, little constipation or little
diarrhoea, and the piles come back
They don't seem to amount to much,
but they Danish sleep and appetite. No
position is comfortable There is in
tense local pain and that dreadful feel
ing of weight in the perineum.
Maybe in the early stages some of the
many salVes on sale will afford temper
airy relief. If the case is OF long stand
ing there is only one speedy and sure
remedy. 1t is Pyramid Pile Cure. Even
in light cases it is the safest thing to
use. Other applications may cure and
may not. Pyramid Cure is always GER
tain, always reliable, always brings
comfort at once. It's prompt use saves
months of severe suffering. In extreme
cases it will save surgical operations,
and their attendant dangers and dis
comforts. 1t is better than a knife. viii
cure easier, quicker and safer. Thou
sands have used it. Thousands have
been cured by it. The cost is trif1ing
compared with what it does. The price
is SO cents. Most anybody would gladly
pay ten dollars to be rid of piles.
All druggists sell Pyramid Pile Cure.

FOURTH DISTRICT.
One Editor of Course, Says the Other
Editor is Wrong.

NJ. NJ. Lee, editor of the st. Narys Eagle

siOnal district committee, denies the
statement that Pottawatomie county will
not endorse b. H. Tracy for congress in
the Fourth district, made by r. NJ Chill
colt, editor of the Wamego Times, in
an interview with a Journal reporter
last week.
Mr.. Lee says: 'Mr. Chilcott is MAX
ing a fight on Tracy for personal reas-
Ons, growing out of a quarrel over the
Wamego pOstofice. Mr.. Chilcott's OBJ
position will have no force in the cam
paign. The Republicans of Pottawato-
mic county are united and harmonious
and are ready to fight the common enc
my and will stand by the home man to
a finish"
