Col Donaldson of Sedan is Being
mentioned"

The Populists of Chautauqua and
other southern Kansas counties are
booming Col. Samuel Donaldson of Sc
dan for the nomination of lieutenant
governor to succeed A. NJ. Harvey, now
senior major in the Twenty-Second reg
iment. They point out that Col. Don
aIdsCn's nomination would be agreeable
to the Democrats as we'll as the Popu-
lists as he was for years an ardent
Democrat and left the party simply be-
cause he felt that it's leaders had
sighted a friend. Thereby hangs a
short tale.
Donaldson's friends was no other
than Vice President Thomas A. Hen
bricks, and after he was elected on the
ticket with Cleveland, Donaldson went
to Washington to visit him. He found
that Hendricks was not being consult
ed in matters of state as he thought he
should be, and decided to resent the
slight to his intimate friend by leaving
the party. Since that time he has been
identified with the Populist movement.
Donaldson has always held that it
was CleVelands treatment of Hen
bricks that caused his death.

In High OnleiaI Circles In France and In
England.
washington Post: The world has had
something to say about the discoveries
of corruption in the French government
upropos Of the Dreyfus affalr. The rev.
Citations in that case have been nausea
ting in the extreme. They have shown
US that the ruling class in France is
hopelessly demoraHzed; that The govern
mental machinery IS honeycombed with
the most Infamous and sordid vice. we
know now that the conviction OF Drey-
fus was first produced and Afterwards
eondoned by false witness and by torg-
cry, and the assertion that all this was
resorted to merely for the purpose OF
conceallng the real evidence only adds
| TO the mennness and the cowardlce OF
the act itself. When a government like
that Of France, backed by public opin-
ION, resorts to the eHpedients OF crime
because It fears that the outspoken truth
may involve It in hostile complications
on the outside. the only possible INFER
ence is that the nation Is both male
factor and poltroon. The confession
and the suicide OF Colonel Henry have
not proved the innocence OF Dreytus.
They have proved only the shame OF
France, The confession, or suicide, or
both, OF Esterhazy will have similar
signIlcance. Every fresh revelation
goes to show that the French govern
ment condemned Dreyfus through the
medium OF a secret trial, and subse-
uuently confirmed It's action by dishnn-
s,tias F,nnnR ainNn1V md gOln-

anger In case the truth were permitted
TO transpIre. A spectacle more disgrace
full and damnable cannot be imagined.
And yet, considering all the circum-
stances, II seems to us that the situation
IN England Is even more lamentable. II
is to be kept in mind that the French
government Is that Of the bourBeoisie,
whereas that Of England IS based upon
the arlstocracy-upon the class OF an
| Client birth and noble practices and ira
dltlons. The dukes and lords and ba-
rous who sold their names to the vulgar

generations, of centuries in fact, OF gem
tie blood, OF high training, OF honorable
example, II any men on earth should
have been beyond the reach OF base
temptation they we're the men. They
had memories to protect them. They had
the obligations OF noble birth and the
safeguards of high estate. Yet they for
got their lineage and sold their names.
Are they not more to be desplsed than
the descendants Of the sans-culottes OF
the Faubourg st. Antoine and the sordid
bourgeoLsie, who now rule France, and
OF whom could have been expected only
cunning and thrifty circumspection?
Verify, fl seems to US that in this mat
ter the British aristocracy has cut a
