FRIDAY while ut Hutchinson, we
saw Wade Thomas, the inmate of the
TefOrmatOry that was reported to have
been 80 badly burned. He had slight
burn on one hand. He was we'll
dressed and from his movements any
one could tell that his body was not
burned. Why any one not pop should
write such pack of lies as was pub
hshed in the wellington Mail and COO
led in nearly all the dailies we cannot
tell The truth about the pop party
and its management of public affairs
is bad enough without ying about them.
Thomas was being returned to the pen
itentiary. He ought to be put in the
coal mine and kept there his natural
life. He is human brute .-Nicker-
son ArgOsy.
The roasting of Thomas, above re.
ierred to, has become a subject for long
editorials in the Topeka Capital and
other leading and supposed reputable
republican papers. 1t will no doubt
cut figure in the campaign scandals
Of the year The ArgOsy is republi-
can paper Of the rankest type. Its ed
itOr is now assistant department COM
mander Of the Grand Army of Kansas.
1t never lies for the benefit of any one
not republican, that is sure. The
above may therefore be taken as haying
some weight.

TIE News in recent editorial at
tacks Governor Leedy on his interview
on the decision of the Supreme court
on the Nebraska maximum rate law
which was copied with approval by the
Topeka Capital. In it the editor, re-
fernDg to the plea made by the court
that it would be taking private property
without due process of law. says: IF
this were not so the property of every
man would be endangered and placed
at the disposal of every legislature,
and the theory could be extended to
cover robbery, embezzlement and all
kinds of pOpulistic practices" The
editor seems welded to- the truly mod
ern notion that legislature, or the
legislative department of government,
was not made for anything in particu-
lar unless it is to vote away public
franchises and appropriations. The
legislature is the only department of
the government that can be demon
mated as even semi-pOpular and these
corporation defenders are so much
afraid of the popular will here, lamely
as it is usually expressed, that thew
ClamOr for other powers to override 1t.
Yet the same fellows who thus fear the
Legislatures are the very ones who crate

of popular government.

ANOTHER Of last winters laws which
is Of great Importance to thousands of
people, is being tested in the courts.
1t is what is known as the ''scrlp and
screen law" This law is one prohibi-
ing the coal companies from compelling
their miners to take pay in scrip which
is good only at company stores, and to
provide against rObbing thu miners of
lbeir wages through the screen system.
These systems have reduced the miners
of many States TO a condition Of serf-
dom which is hardly better than that
Of Russia years ago. Ofcourse 1t is ar.
gued by the corporation men that il
they do not like the conditions imposed
upon them By the corporations employ
ing them, they are not compelled to la.
Dor. Theoretically this is so, but prac-
tically it is carnivorous lie. In the
crush of competition for work, the poor
beggar for labor cannot be chooser

TALKING about pensions the other
day when Jerry Simpson was here be
said that il is very difficult now to get
pension through, because the admin
lstratlOn in every department is resort
ing to every measure possible to curtail
government expenditures so as to, as
far as possible, make them harmonic
with the Dingley revenue in size and
proportions 1t is noticeable that the
usual river and harbOr bill has been
left out this session Apr OPERATIONS
have been cut, in many particulars
away below former dimensions, so that
the departments will run short before
new appropriations will be available.
But the pension depar menC is where
the ak is applied most vigorously, lOp-
ping off little items which take cash.
Word has been sent around among the
congressman asking them to cut out all
but few of the most meritOriOus
special pension bills There is now
pending bill for the pension of the
widow of Rivers Banks an old settler
of this place which every body seems
to regard AS of special merit. Con-
gresham BOtkin has been pushing it
forward but on account of the penur-
iOusness that has been injected into
the pension business as a matter of po-
litical necessity it is a difficult thing
to handle.

THE Nickerson Argosy of last week
contained a heavy editorial on govern
ment ownership of railroads. 1t is
certainly something new and original
in railroad polemlcs. 1t is a poser in
its line. 1t argues first that the taking
of so much property by the government
would diminish the amount of taxable
property till other kinds Of property
would have to be levied upon to the ex
tent of practical coniisGation. 1t never
occurred to the writer that the govern
ment could, or should, make the rates
high enough to bear at least as much
