HONOR HIS MEMORY.

No suggestion of a similar character
ever made to the people of Kansas is
more worthy of sincere attention and
united action than that of ex-Gov. John
p St. John regarding the erection of a
monument to the late John A. Martin.
Col Martin was a man whom kan
sans should delight to honor. He was
typical of all that is greatest and best
in the state. His life was devoted to
the states service. From the time he
became citizen of the commonwealth
until his death he was never out of the
harness.
It is given to few men to serve their
state in so many and varied capacities
or to discharge their duties to their fel-
low citizens in so acceptable a manner.
Whether in the position of guide and
counsellor through the medium of the
journal which he founded, or as leader
of the states soldiers in battle, or
as the chief executive of the common
wealth he ever displayed the same cour-
age and devotion to duty which char
acterized him when he led the martyred
Eighth Kansas up the slope of Mission
ary Ridge. What he conceived to be
his duty that he did unhesitatingly.
It is recalled of John A. Martin that
he was not believer in the prohibitory
law. but after being elected governor,
he enforced that law, because it was
the law, as it had not been enforced be
fore, and as it has not been enforced
since.
In erecting a shaft to his memory,
the people of Kansas will also build a
monument to all that is true and noble
in American citizenship. In honoring
him they will honor themselves and
transmit a lesson in patriotism to gen
erations to come.
That a ready response will be made
to a call for funds for this purpose there
can be no doubt. Let the work be
started at once.

CANNON EATS FIRE.
Utah Senator HOtly Resents a
Fancied Insult.

Washington, Feb. 10.-For more than
three hours yesterday the senate chamber
rang with eloquent appeals in behalf of
the Cuban insurgents. Announced speeches
were made by Mr.. Cannon CUtah) and Mr..
Mason CIll.) in advocacy of the adoption
of resolutions which they presented to
the senate Tuesday.
Following Mr.. Cannon's speech, Mr..
Hale (Nde.) addressed the senate briefly,
urging the senate to uphold the policy of
the administration. The galleries were
packed with people who were aware that
this would be a field day of Cuban ora
tory. While Mr.. Cannon was speaking
sensational incident occurred. A member
of the house of representatives, standing
near the speaker, audibly denounced as
lie, seemingly, some statement Mr.. Can
non had made.
Mr.. Cannon, pale with feeling, made re-
ply to what at the moment seemed an in
suit, but which was subsequently satis>
factorily explained
There was a buzz of conversation among
the spectators members of the house of
representatives and others who lined the
inner wall of the senate chamber, when
Mr.. Hale (Me.) addressed the vice presi-
dent. He expressed the hope that order
might be preserved and the rules of the
senate strictly observed. Just as the in
terruption occurred, Mr.. Cannon had
made the statement that every rifle in
the hands of the Cuban patriots had cost
them $500. After quiet had been restored,
Mr.. Cannon, whose face was white as
paper, and who was evidently painfully
affected by his emotion, said: Il do not
ordinarily object to remarks of denial con-
cerning statements which make on this
floor. However, to a statement which
just made the audible comment was add
ed that it was a lie. I care less, Mr.. Pres
ident for the remark than for the spirit
which actuated it. reassert it as SOL
emn truth that the Cuban patriots have
paid 800 for every rifle they have in use
in their army. These arms have come
from the United States. Every railroad
and every express company and every
hlibustering expedition which has landed
arms and munitions of war upon the
island of Cuba has taken it's deadly toll"
The remark which Mr.. Cannon referred
to came from a member of the house, who
was talking to another member just be-
hind the senator's chair.
Mr.. Cannon later took the floor for
brief personal explanation bearing upon
the scene in which he had participated
toward the close of his remarks. He said
the gentleman to whose utterances he had
taken exception had explained to him that
their utterances had reference to another
subject. He was willing, he said, to ac-
cept the explanation, as he had no doubt
the senate would.

RESERVE WILL NOT OPEN.
The Pottawatomie Lands in jackson
County Will Remain Closed to
Pale Faces.

Washington, Feb. 1O.-The senate COM
mittee on appropriations has reported the
Indian appropriation bill. The increase
is $4,000 over the house bill. A provis-
ion is made in regard to the detailing of
army officers for Indian agents only at
such agencies as in the opinion of the
president may require the presence of an
officer. The number of Indian inspectors
is increased from five to eight and one
shall be competent in the location, con-
structiOn and maintenance of irrigation
works.
The Dawes commission is increased from
three to four and provision is made for
the commission to make up the rolls of
the five civilized tribes, and it is declared
that when the rolls are made up and ap-
proved by the secretary of the interior
they shall be final.
The time fixed for opening the Uncom-
pahgre land in Utah is extended six
months. The secretary of the interior is
authorized to contract for a water sup
ply for the southern Ute reservation in
Colorado. The legislation of the house
bill regarding the Pottawatomies and
Kickapoos in Kansas is stricken out.

character, and the establishment of a
western branch of the state agrieultu
raj college at this point would be par
ticularly beneficial and appropriate, for
the reason herein stated and more fully
set forth in the foregoing concurrent
resolution, as it would form a nucleus
from which important developments
might be expected in determining the
agricultural character and value of the
arid lands in the western part of Kan
SaS and eastern Colorado; and for all
these reasons the committee is of the
opinion that the policy contemplated by
this bill is a wise and prudent one and
will result beneficially not only to the
state Of Kansas but to the whole coun-
try, and we therefore recommend the
passage of this bill.
The Fort Hays Military reservation
is situated in what is known as the arid
belt of the state of Kansas.
This post was esta bliShed in the ear
ly history OG Kansas for t. purpose of
furnishing a convenient basis of opera
tions against the Indian tribes of the
west, and was maintained for many
years for that purpose Excellent build
ings were erected thereon for officers
quarters and other army purposes, and
are admirably adapted in many respects
for the purposes contemplated in this
bill.
As the Indian tribes were gathered
on the reservations in the Indian Ter
ritory, this military reservation be-
came useless, and several years ago
and turned over to the interior depart
ment, and from thence until the present
time it has been of no service to the
government of the United States; upon
the contrary a continued expense and
embarrassm
In view of the arid condition of the
land, it would be difficult to sell it for
any reasonable amount. A part of the
reservation is covered by an unusual
growth of timber for tnat section of the
country and it is important that this
timber be preserved for public park
purposes.
The state of Kansas has already es-
tablished a state agricultural college at
Manhattan, in Riley county, about ITO
miles west of the eastern border of the
state 1t has also established a state
normal institute at EmpOria, Lyon
county, about 125 miles west of the east
ern border of the state.
The entire length of the state is about
407 miles, and the result is that the peO-
pie in nearly two-thirds of the state are
practically deprived of the benefits and
advantages of both these institutions.
In view of the arid character of this
land and its situation in the western
part of the state, about 175 miles west
of the present location of the agricul-
tural college and the state normal in
stitute it would furnish an admirable
location for the establishment of
branches of these institutions for the
benefit of the inhabitants of nearly two
thirds of the state

MATrox NOT pRUNK.
The Released Prisoner Says He Was
Not on a Spree at Newton.

Kansas City, Feb. 1O.-In local pa
per a few days ago there appeared a
special dispatch from Newton, Kan,
enumerating certain alleged escapades
of Clyde MattOx who had recently been
released from the Kansas state peniten-
tiary
1t appears from the explanations of
Mattox and a direct statement Of Mr..
Lands, the warden of the penitentiary,
that the correspondent had either mis-
taken the identity of Mattox or that
some imposition had been practiced on
the paper.
According to Mr.. Lands and w. T.
Upton, chief clerk under him, Mattox
had led a very exemplary life since his
last trouble, and they give it as their
opinion that he will make a useful cit
ize from now on. MattOx himself
called at the newspaper office Tuesday
He had been embarrassed by the fre-
quent publications in the newspapers of
his alleged indiscretiOns. In speaking
about the matter to a reporter, he
said:
4 do not understand how the mistake
occurred, but it has been very humiiat-
ing to me. My chief regret is on ac-
count of my mother, and the embar-
rassment it has OccaSiOned the good
friends who have been so kind to
her.
