SOME republican papers have had the
temerity to redicule the railroad law
passed at the special session, because
there has been little or no business
done In the court of visitation. There
have, We believe, been one or two cases
filed and considering the make up Of
the court, that is one or two more than
should be expected. With such emf
nent lawyers rs Lit Crum acting as
judge and such men as Myat, who also
never was lawyer and don't know the
difference between a supersedas bond
and the Hfth commandment, acting as
solicitor, or States attorney for the
court, It Is the best exhibition of q
kangaroo institution that ever did
business In Kansas. Governor Stanley
is taking revenge on the State for work
done by the populist Legislature.
However, there is one &C. Of the legisla-
ture, part, so to say, Of the law en-
acting the court of visitation, of which
republican papers, have nothing to say,
1t is the act reducing telegraph rates.
The State officers have compromised
with the companies by haYing the State
telegraphing done at lawful rates, land
getting their own personal work done
for nothing, no doubt,) and are letting
the law take care Of itself; but there
are few individuals who are pushing
suits against them. Not only do they
allege the illegal charges, but also
CAIN that the Western Union is q trust
having forced fifteen or twenty smaller
companies out OF business In this State.

ents made 80 vigorous protest that
the general finally agreed to "do bet
ter" and appoint a new censor, This

fully. In their protest the newspaper
men close by specifying as their 9riev-
ance: "Prohibition Of reports, suppress

THE DIFFERENCE.

In what consists the glory of the
natlonH In the solution Of this qnes-
tion IL all the difference between the
parties to be aligned In battle array In
the coming conflict Of ballots. One
party will champion the idea that has
permeated all the empires, monarch lea
and most Of the republics since the
world began, that national glory con-
sists In resplendent armies, In victor
ious navieS, In epauletted chiefs and
heroes, who have "waded through
slaughter to Q throne" In the main
tenanCo Of a nobility either of historic
lineage or Of tremendous wealh, who
can dazzle the world with extrava0ant +
expenditures, who can buy the crowns
and diadems Of the HohenzOlprns, the
Hapsburgs or the Bourbons, like pota-
toes from the cellar, who would main.
tain a national government that would
resent any insult TO one of these great
ones abroad with fire and iron till the
earth would suck up blood like water.
They would live Rome ana Babylon
over again. This they call the glory Of
the nation On the other side another
party says that the glory of the nation
lies not In mote, or battlement, not In
guns that vomlt Ere like Il volcano, not
In the scurrying OF tremendous armies
sustained by bonded, 1.-THE taxed,
impoverished people, but equal and ex-
act justice to all our own, "A people un-
fettered in mind or body, or spiritual y,
or financially, people among whom
are no poor and none rich enough
to glOat over their power A people
among whom is equal opportunity for
equal merit. A government under
which the insult or robbery Of q poor
man at home shall be as quickly
avenged as Of the rich man abroad.
In this we say consists the glory OF the
nation, OF course 1t iS recognized that
while the world is warlike we must
have some warlike preparation, but 1t
is not necessary to 90 deeper in 1t than
In the past. The past with our small
military expenditure and arrangements
brought ont heroes when the occasion
arose and ii was not considered neces-
sary to go to the other side of the world
and shoot HOtentots and TaRals to pro-
duce an occasion.

GOVERNOR Rogers of Washington In
declining to send representatives 10 the
st. LOUIS antitrust conference, looking
to State legislation because these mon
sters can be dealt with successfully
only BY national authority and that it
will only help the republicans to throw
the responsibility on the States, was
not very far wrong. However he
should attend and attempt to bring the
conference to his way of thinking.
This republican opinion that labor
strikes aud demonstrations are to be
quelled by federal injunctions, United
States marshalls and troops, but that
the doctrine Of States rights and none
other applies to trusts, is u very rosy
colored and beautiful one-fOr the
trusts. A number Of years ago Justice
Harlan In a dissenting opinion in the
Supreme Court on the sugar trust made
these prophetic remarks; I'VE have
before us the case Of u combination
which absolutely controls, or may, ut
its discretion, control the price Of all
the refined sugar in the country. Sup
pose another combination, organized
for private gain, and to control prices,
should obtain possession Of all the large
flour mills in the United States; an
other, Of all the oil territory; another,
OF all the salt-produCing regions; an
other, of all the cotton-mills; and an
other, Of all she great establishments
for slaughtering animals and the prep.
aration of meats. What power is CON-
petent to protect the people of the
United States against such dangers,
except a national power--one that ia
capable of exerting Its sovereign auth
ority throughout every part of the ter.
ritory and over all the people of the
nati0np"

ONCE or twice before we had occa
sion to remark that all "road agents.
did not live under the day ana rule of
John W. Leedy, and have mentioned
the tact that Superintendent Church
was a patron of the aforesaid
knights of the Highway" In fact
ever since he has been in office he has
had Senator Batty out on the road
and part Of the time with an assistant.
1t is now stated that Church's two
examiners have put in thirty-hve days
examining the Kansas Mutual and the
bill will be not less than 1850 therefor.
These fees have never been turned
over to the State and no doubt will
not be. There seems to be no law re-
quiring it, but that did not prevent
Stanley from ousting McNall, ostensi-
bly, on that ground. 1t should be said
that the next legislature should enact
a law providing that at least portion
of these fees should be turned over to
the State.
