THERE WILL BE WAR IN THE
TRANSNAAL.

That was settled when the news
came that Your Uncle Paul had sent
am ultimatum to England. England
sends ultimatums to other people; she
doesn't require any for. home con-
sumption. When it was known that
the Beers had demanded the with
drawal of British troops, that moment
it was certain that British troops
would not be withdrawn.
The war will come and it will be
hard and vicious and by no means
one sided. 1t is said the Beers with
their allies can command 100000
troops. If they can the war will not
be done this year or perhaps the next.

BETTER THAN EXPECTE D
The New Well of the Gas Company
Proves to BE Up Among the
Good Ones.

For the reason that it was sunk in
q locality that was regarded as doubt
ful, or at the best as poor territory,
but little was expected of the new
we'll just brought in by the Gas Com.
pany near the Santa Fee depot. Care
full measurements show, however,
that it is very far from being poor
well, as its daily yield IS not less
than five and quarter million feet.
This result was obtained by careful
tests with three different guages and
may be relied upon as being sub
stantially correct. This is at least
twice as much gas as any member OF
the Company expected to get in this
well, and they are pleased accord
ingly.

practice is surely not needed in the
case of Judge Stilwell The people of
this District know that he is an ADLER
Judge now, after his sixteen years OF
unremitting study, than he was when
he first went upon the bench, and that
he is better by Just those sixteen y ears
of experience and study than any new
man, without judicial experience
would be. \ bright and capable man
may go into the Office OF county treas
urer, for example, and within few
weeks master the routine of the Office
so as to be able to conduct it as well
as he could after years of practice
But however brilliant and learned a
lawyer may be, when he goes upon
the bench some new principle or pre-
cedent or decision is continually being
presented to him, and he is taught
something 10y the trial of nearly every
important case. That man should
attend such a school as this for six
teen years and at the end of that time
be less well equipped than new
man, could only happen to a mental
pauper.
The truth is that there is no sound
argument against the reelection of
Judge Stillwell. The reason urged for
his defeat, that he "has been there
long enough is really a powerful
argument i'm his favor, for it calls at
tention to the fact that the people
have endorsed him three separate
times since his first election. The
people might be led into electing AN
unworthy man first time; but they
would not elect again and again and
yet again a man who was an unjust
or an unlearncd Judge, or bad man.
The people of this District have
kept Judge Stillwell on the bench be-
cause they have had implicit conf
dence in the purity of his life, i'm the
rectitude of his intentions, i'm his
knowledge of the law and i'm his reso-
lute determination that so far as lay
in his power equal and exact justice
should be done to all. They will elect
him for Il fifth time because this conf.
dence remains mistaken.

THE TWENTIETH HAS ARRIVED.

THE TWENTIETH HAS ARRIVED.
At 1880 o'clock Wednesday the
REGISTER posted upon its bulletin
board the news that the Tartar bear
ing "the Regiment" as everybody i'm
Kansas fondly loves to call it, had ar
rived at San Francisco, and at nine
o'clock, in cordial compliance with a
telephone suggestion from this Office,
all the steam whistles in town and
near it were turned loose and for five
minutes made merry music, proclaim
ing the glad tidings to all the people.
1t is probable that no other event
was ever awaited with such universal
and eager interest by all the people of
Kansas as the arrival of this ship with
its precious cargo. Ever since. last
Saturday, at which time it was esti-
mated that the boat might possibly
arrive, the whole state has been on
the tiptoe of expectancy, every eye,
speaking figuratively, was turned to-
ward San Francisco, and every ear
listening for the click of the telegraph
that should bring the glad tidings.
The first question asked i'm the morn
ing has been HAS the Regiment ar
rived?" and the last word at night has
been at will surely come tomorrow
SO the news that the gallant ship is
in port and our brave and battle worn
boys safe home again was the best
news that ever came TO Kansas, and
right properly was it hailed by the
blowing of whistles and the ringing of
bells. "The boys are here was the
greeting that passed from lip to lip,
and ON many faces the tear was not
| far from the smile.
And maybe the boys aren't glad to
get back also! Maybe they didn't
climb onto the rails and 1.-THE rigging
and shout themselves hoarse as the
familiar shores of their own country
loomed before them And maybe the
good people of san Francisco did not
been making joyful noise that day
And maybe the boys-oUR boys
weren't cheered and their way strewr
with flags and flowers when they fell
in line and marched to their old camJ.
ground at the Preside And may be
they won't be flattered and feasted
the three weeks they are to remain
there And maybe there won't be Il
welcome for them fifteen hundred
miles long when they start in theiI
Pullman coaches for Kansas! And
maybe all Kansas won't be at Topeka
to cheer and cheer when they swing
into line and sweep down Kansas
! Avenue And maybe there will not
be a welcome home for every one OF
the boys as they scatter out to the
towns and villages all over the State
from whence they went away to war
Kansas let the Twentieth go away
quietly, because there seemed only
the remotest possibility that it would
ever hear hostile shot. But now
that the Regiment comes back from
the ends OF the earth, comes back from
hundred days on the firing line,
comes back with flags frayed and
torn with the shot of battle, comes
criminal in its ranks, comes back with
its name as familiar to every English
speaking tongue as the name of the
Light Brigade, the State that sent it
forth in silence will welcome its re-
turn with such acclaim as was never
before shown within the borders OF
the commonwealth for any man OF
body of men.
