For long time it has been known
that Tom Reed has not been brimming
with love for the administration.
During the last few days the dispatches
have been floating announcements
that Reed has declared open war and
the remainder Of the session of Con-
gress will witness a struggle between
the Reed forces and the administration
forces over the appropriations and
other legislation necessarily In the line
Of expansion. Reed never did favor II.
He has always been against II but not
aggressively. But now it is claimed
that the defeat of the Nicaragua canal
bill, the $40, 100000 appropriation for
paying Spain were Of Reeds accomplish
ment and that he has his head set
against the army reorganization bill.
Sure 1t Is that these bills were cham
pioned by the administration leaders.
II these statements are as true as they
have the appearance Of being 1t means
a thorny path for the president and his
expansion delusion. Reed is a tyrant
by nature, unscrupulous and sometimes
dastardly. But he Is aparagOn Of force
and a man with whom In an equal con-
test the president 10 no match. Reed
10 the ablest man on the plutocratiC
side. In entering such contest he
undoubtedly has assurances of support,
for IL he does not succeed 1t means a
disjCinted vertebra and political OBJ
llYion.

ADILL appropriating some $4,000
for paying a lot OF claims for damages
done during the Price and Quantrill
raids 1t sneaked past committee Of
the whole In the house and was on the
verge Of passing when the popullst
members called a halt. Some weeks
before the senate called upon the au-
d,tor for a statement Of the claims and
their present condition. 1t was un-
needed. Finally resolutions were in
troduced in the senate and house by
populist members, DeBaId Of this
county being the author of the house
resolution, that no payment SHOULD be
made until the claims should bb veri-
fed. This called q halt, 1t is freely
charged that the warrants outstanding
which we're issued to satisfy the claims
have passed out OF the hands Of the or
iginal owners having been bought up
by money sharks at ten cents and hf-
teen cents on the dollar. 1t Is further
charged that many Of these warrents
are now held by members Of the legis-
lature who are now behind the bill.

lLLEoALLY ADVERTISED.

A number OF the owners OF Judge
menta In Reno county applied To the
probate Judge for temporary inJunc-
tion restraining the county tTeAaurer
and the board Of county commissioners
from selling the Judgments on Monday
al was advertised for taxes due on
them under the statute passed two
years ago providing for taxing judg-
ments. A number Of allegations were
made why the sale should be enjolned.
II was alleged the advertisement was
not published at the time required by
law that 1t was not In proper form and
did not give the namesOf the Judgment
debtors, II 10 further alleged that the
law 10 unconstitutional and the nom
resident owners OF judgements Ore re-
qulred TO list their property In other
states 30 that II these Judgments are
taxed IL constitutes double taxation.
A number of other errors and irregu-
larities are charged. The temporary
Injunction was granted In the absence
of Judge Simpson by the probate judge.
The News has now tiled It's affidavit
of publication for the advertisement of
the list of judgments and with 1t q bill
for $345. SO which will undoubtedly have
TO be paid by the county whether II was
legal or not, for the fault was undoubt-
edly with the treasurer's Office and the
News followed copy. At any rate 1t 10
plain no sales can be made on this ad-
yertisement and no taxes collected.
While II Is possible the law may not be
aS perfect as 1t should be there has un-
doubtedly been gross negligence some
where for the plain provisions Of the
law concerning the time of publication
were not followed and 1t may be
doubted whether q real bona ade effort
has been made to enforce Its provisions.
The taxes will amount to more than
81 200, which II collected would be
worth considerable.

Captain John Seaton, who WAS defeated
for "a nomination fcrBovernor by Stanly
has done more for the State and more TO
make bis name deservlngly lasting than
Stanley. Seaton Ia not ty any means
immaculate. For the last ten or twelve
years be has been the leading represen-
tativo Of the railroad interests In The

ous efforts and 40 reCompense for this
the present republican speaker made
him chairman of the railroad commit
tee. But somehow up In Minnesota he
picked up the notion Of u binding twine
plant for the employment of convict
labor and puC 1t before the Legislature.
IL struck responsive chord and was
passed by pOpulist and republican votes
Jointly. However there are some fea-
lures which furnish room for specula-
tion, II will OF course add much to the
responsibility Of the warden aud will
require more careful management,
but what Of the outputp VIII II be
placed on the market at trust pricesP
The interests OF the State from d point
Of revenue would dictate an alllrma-
tive answer, But then the farmers
will not be benefited at all and will
probably feel disappointed as In the
passage Of the bill many Legislators
seemed to expect II would have that
effect. But suppose the product is put
on the market AT fair profit, hut con-
siderable under trust prices viii the
trust hare operate against the State as
IL does against private concerns and
cut their prices to less than the cost OF
productions But as In all cases of
public ownership there will Ne saving

1t is u good law even though II was In
troduCed by a republican. 1t opens q
way for the employment Of convict Ia
Dor without q contract system or seri-
ously competing with the free labor Of

TREASURER Grimes seems fairly safe
TO rest secure in the prospect Of that
expected rakeoff Of interest on the
States deposits Of money with the To-
peka banks. The republican house
could hardly afford to go on record in
favor Of anything that favored Of the
idea Of abolishlng private snap. The
bill providing that the State funds
should be loaned to the banks bidding
highest,on security of personal bond to
twenty per cent Of the amount and
bonds Of State, counties, etc., to the
full amountwas duly introduced In the
house. Butts existance was brief and
full Of trouble. From various quarters
it was kicked, cuffed and spat upon and
Gnally died as one alone IN q strange
land far from home and kindred.

The senate has passed bill provid-

State. 1t isa we'll know fact that oil
inspectors have been collecting Sl2, 900
TO $4,000 per year In fees from the oil
companies and in a majority Of instan-
ces none Of 1t was turned IN to the
State treasury. The inspection OF oil
to was a mendacious farce. Probably
not one barrel in twenty ever was in
spected. In fact under the law even
il there were an honest effort to do so
it would probably be impossible to do
it. The new law puts the inspectors
Ona salary and the fees are all to be
turned over'to the State. Rigid penal
ties are provided for failing to make

THE COST OF IT IN BLOOD.

The bill IF costs in the
Philippines has been heavily
augmented by the killing oil
General Lawton, one OF the
bravest and most capable OF
oul officers. While the Fill
'pinos are not such good shots
as the Beers, and are, OF
course, not to be compared
to them as fighters, they have
managed to kill or wound a
large number of our officers
and men. In spite of the Wig
orous campaign recently wag-
ed against them, they would
seem to be still capable Of in
flicting serious damage. The
loss of men like LAYTON should
emphasize the folly Of a pol.
icy which can only be main
tanned by further and con.
stantly increasing sacrifices
of the same kind in the fu-
ture. The subjugat!on OF
the PHILIPPINES will be but the
first chapter in this policy OF
imperialism and blood. The
500, 100000 which we have
handed over to Spain for these
islands is but a bagatelle to
the price which; we will have
to pay hereafter, if we persist
in pursuing the dangerous
path Of empire. BALI. Sun.
