James D. Snoddy Writes Governor
Stanley Letter of Suggestion

James D. Snoddy of Pleasanton, Linn
county, an ex-speaker of the house and
one Of the recognized constitutional
lawyers of the state, has entered a Wig
orous protest to "omnibusing'' bills,
that is, passing a batch of bills by the
same roll call He has written the fol-
lowing letter to Governor Stanley on
the subject:
February 26, 1899
w. E. Stanley, Governor, Topeka, Kan.
Dear Sir-Perhaps you will regard
this letter an impertinence. If you do,
you can rest assured the motive which
prompts it is good. see by the news
paper reports of the legislature that the
house has upon two occasions at least
"omnibussed" a lot of bills. That such
a proceeding is a fragrant disregard of
the constitution and violation of the Of
fetal oath of the members no one will
deny That such open breach of con-
stltution by the part of the legislative
branch of the state government should
be rebuked no one will dispute. do not
Sc myself how you can approve
measure which was passed through the
house or senate in that way. That you
can ignore the common history of the
legislature, the truth of which you can
easily verify, is impossible. Common
sense and very ordinary honesty revolt
at such suggestion.
1t is said these bills are special. So
much the worse. The general and al
most universal rule is that special leg
islation is vicious. The constitution
against it. The supreme court has de-
cided much of it unconstitutional, but
notwithstanding this, the legislature
and governor have heretofore proceed
ed with unbecoming alacrity to the dis
regard of the constitution and viola
ton of their oaths of office until
our session laws have become the dis
gushing repositories of their incOm-
potency and official perjury.
L am not strict constructionist, nor
yet one of such loose ideas of construc
ton as to render the plain provisions
of the constitution nugatOry, but am
unalterably opposed to the evil exam
pie of the legislative branch of the state
government deliberately violating the
fundamental law while engaged in
making it statute law to be Obeyed by
the people. If those who administer
the state government expect the people
to obey the law which they make, they
themselves must be obedient to it in all
it's requirements. If they do not expect
the laws to be obeyed it is useless to
make them. If they are not obeyed our
condition is that of an anarchy the
foundation of whose overwhelming flood
is at the capitol.
Pardon me for trespassing to this
extent upon your preoccupied moments.
Very respectfully,
JAMES D. SNODDY.
Governor Stanley has announced that
if the senate and house have not the
time to consider these local bills, he has
no time to investigate them, and will
permit them to become laws without
his signature, at the expiration of the
legal limit of ten days.

HE WROTE POPULAR SONG.
Aged Author of "Dixie" Makes His
First Speech at Gambler, Ohio.

Gambler, O., March 4.-Daniel D. En-
NETT, composer of the famous song.
Dixie" sung for 40 years in every
state of the Union, told last night the
story of his life to the cadets of Kenyon
Military academy and detailed all the
circumstances under which he wrote
the song.
OF southern parentage, he was born
in Mount Vernon, October 29, 1915, and
was the first white boy born there. Be
ing averse to the trade of his father,
who was a blacksmith, he sought, at Is
years of age, the pursuit of a musician
with travelling shows, which life he led
for % years.
In 1S43 he founded the Virginia min
strels, which met with immense sue
cess in New York and Boston and
throughout Great Britain. In 1859 he
was engaged by Bryant's Ministries, 472
Broadway, New York, to write comic
songs, negro songs, and walk-arounds
and act as musician when required.
Dixie" was written in the early
spring of 1859 and was sung from that
time to July 4. 1865, by Mr.. Emmett at
every performance given at Bryant's.
His story was received with great ap
plause and at it's close he sang Dixie
with the support of chorus improvis-
ed from the school during the day.

Coal Under It

Wilkesbarre, March 4--From being
poor man with 300 acres of barren land,
which yielded nothing, Henry Zeigler, an
old German of Pittston township, is now
a millionaire. and the land is worth mil
lion and half.
The old man settled on the land twenty
five years ago, and when the Hillside Coal
company tried to dispossess him he claim
ed the land by right of sovereignty. He
had no money to pay fees to attorneys TO
fight the case, so he agreed with four of
them to manage it for a contingent Zee or
one-third. :,
Today Judge Lynch decided the case in
favor of Zeigler. The land is underiaid
with a twenty-five foot vein OF virgin coal
worth IS, 900 an acre.

bill had been passed Senator Jumper
secured reconsideration of the meas
Importance.
This amendment provides that the
records of the Topeka insane asylum be
the basis for estimating the amounts
due these counties. This is because a
record of the insane patients is kept at
the asylum, by reason of the fact that
applications for admission of patients
are always filed there.
From this appropriation bill, the
amount of delinquent state taxes is to
be deducted.
