A MEAN TRICK.

When Captain Christy, of Company Z, re-
signed, it became necessary to appoint new
captain According to the established usage in
volunteer companies, the officer of the next
lower rank becomes captain. In this case,
Dan Craig, of Garnett, should have been APP
pointed captain, he being first lieutenant.
However, Fred Funston had a pet by the name
of Watson, who belonged to Company d.
Funston asked Stanley to appoint Watson.
The boys OF Company E. wanted Dan Craig to
be their captain, and they sent petition to
Governor Stanley to that effect, over two-thirds
of the members of the company signing the
petition But, the wishes of privates "cut no
ice" with Stanley Funston is colonel, and he
has a pet for the place That settled it.
Funstons pet must have the place-and he got
it.
We have talked with old soldiers about the
matter and they all condemn this action of
SANKEY'S. Dan Craig is onei of the cleants
Young men we ever knew, and he has made
splendid record as an officer. He merted the
office of captain, and should nave had it.
Stanley made no friends in turning him down.

STANLEY DISAPPIONTS THEM.

Republicans of Wichita are shot under the
collar" becouse Stanley promised them some
good places, but has gone back on his prom
Use. He first promised to give Wichita one
member OF the court of visitation, which is
worth $4,000 per year, but when he said he
would appoint Marsh Murdoch, and nobody
else, they knew Stanley had gone back on his
pledge, because Marsh already has the Wichita
postoffice, which is worth $1,000 year, and
of course lie will not give up the postofice for
job that pays less
Stanley then promised to appoint another
Wichita man adjutant-general, but he went
back on that promise. Then he promised him
job under the adjutant-g general, and the man
packed his trunk, went to Topeka and hunted
up boarding place. Stanley again repudiatet.
his pledge, and sent the man back to Wichita,
offering him small job at the Hutchinson re-
formatory-which he did not accept.
Owing to these broken pledges, the Repub-
licans at Wichita are indignant, and SANKEY'S
name will be ''Mud" at the next Republican
state convention.

DETECTIVES WATCH LEGISLATORS.

According to the Kansas City Journal, on the
day tn, recent Kansas legislature adjourned,
the executive council employed detectives to
watch the legislators and keep them from car
rying away all the furniture of the state house.
Such thing was never done before. Are we
not coming to a pretty pass when we must
watch our lawmakers to keep them from steal
ing the state blind?
These detectives did good work. They were
dressed in citizens clothes, and the legislators
did not know they were detectives until they
(the legislators) undertook to carry away the
states property. All of the would-be thieves
were not legislators, of course-some were
state house employees and hangers-on. Three
different men undertook to take typewriters
Some undertook to take ink stands, sponge
holders, towels, books etc.
Senator Campbell, of Labettee county, went
to the secretary of state and bought dozen
pocket-knives and distributed them among his
friends. He said he didn't want to make the
presents at the expense of the state.
1t seems to have been the practice, in years
gone by, for the Legislators to help themselves
to everything in sight, and at each session of
the legislature new desks chairs, tables,
knives, ink stands, etc, etc, had to be pur-
chased. We are glad this sort of thing has
been stopped.

THE other day, certain well-educated and
very intelligent citizen of Garrett remarked
cit is very amusing to think of those ignorant
Filipinos trying to fight our soldiers with their
little bows and arrows" This remark takes
us back many years, when another people did
some very amusing things, 1t will be remem-
bered that man named George Washington
commanded little army of '-ebels' who were
fighting for liberty and independence. They
ragged, and often hungry, and presented very
sorry appearance. They were sometimes shoe
less, in the dead of winter, and, as they marched
through the SNOW, they left bloody footprints.
They did not fight with bows and arrows, it is
true, but their weapons were very primitive
not to be compared with the weapons used by
the British soldiers. No doubt the idea of
those poor ragamuffins fighting the well-fed
and swell-equipped British soldiers was very
amusing to the Brtons. No doubt they often
laughed to scorn our poor soldiers 1t WAS
amusing, too; wasn't it? And, yes, it really
is amusing to think of those poor Fiipinos
trying to fight our boys with their puny weap-
ons; and when we think of those Filipino
wives and mothers joining the army and trying
to fight for all that is dear to them, we laugh
and laugh till our sides ache. It's so amusing!

THE Kansas City Journal of the 18th inst
publishes statement from correspondent of
the Associated Press, at Manila in which he
says: "About 800 new saloons have been
opened here since the American occupation,
with the result that many drunken soldiers are
to be seen in the streets" Is it any wonder
that even Filipino mothers have sacrificed their
lives on the battlefield to drive back 'civil
ization' that fills their land with saloons and
drunken soldiers?

Reed has also promised to not be candidate

he is to have the presidential nomination in

A Judicial View OF Expansion.

Justice David J. Brewer, of the United States
supreme court, in an address before the Liberal
Club of Buffalo, N Y, which was delivered
at the same time Mckinley delivered his speech
before the Home Market Club of Boston, said,
among other things:
eve have lived and prospered for 1913 years
with handful of regular troops. We have
preserved peace at home, and have been re-
spected abroad. Government by consent OF
the governed has little need of the soldier So
the world has come to believe, and so it is.

Under the treatment of physicians
the wound seemed obstinate, finally

broke outinto a running sore. This
soon spread to other parts of the
scalp and ran down the side of the
neck, increasing in severity, and

received there failed 10 arrest the

Shelley Case Dismissed.

A. w. Shelley, charged with se1lin,
| liquor to an Indian, was happy mai
when Judge Hanfor1 instructed tn,
jury to turn verdict of not guilty
Mrs. Shelley, who was present in tn,
courtroom, also gave touching evidenc,
of her happeness. Shelley is drug
gist at Shelton and was indicted TO,
selling whisky to Charles Robertson, /:
Skokmish Indian. Assistant United
States Attorney Claypoo1 conducted
the case for the state Charles o. Bates
of Tacoma, and E. B. Brockway, OF
Shelton, appeared for the defendant.
The indictment alleged that the In.
dian was ward of the United States
G government under the control of ar
agent. The evidence showed Shelley
gave liquor to the Indian. which he
said was for his wife.
The defence took the position that
Shelley had committed no offense
against the laws Of the United States,
as Robinson, under the aliotment-in.
severalty act, was citizen of the
United States, free to do as he liked.
Attorney C1aypoo1 maintained the
law of 1897 was the rule in this case,
and expressly forbids selling liquor to
Indians holding lands and having no
right to dispose of them without the
consent of the United States.
Attorney Bates insisted that no
crime had been proven against any
law of the United States, and moved
the jury be instructed to return a YER
dict of not guilty.
Judge Hanford IN granting this mo-
ton said: 81 do not remember ever
ruling that an indictment as this is
would apply to Indians who owned
lands which have been allotted to them.
If an Indian agent or school teacher
actually asserts charge or control over
the Indian because he is an Indian.
that is matter of fact. But this law
only applies to cases where the charge
or control is lawful.
"In regard to the 1897 law, it is not
an enactment by Congress as an
amendment to section 2,139; it is new
and entirely independent section, an
entirely different statute. II covers in
part the same ground, but also covers
agreat deal more. Hence, indictments
brought under section 2,139 cannot be
tried under the laws of 1872
Judge Hanford therefore granted
the motion of the defense and instruct
ed the jury to give a verdict of not
guilty.-Tacoma Ledger.

Home From the KIondike.

J. ". Ludgate, Tom Frazer and
James Daughtray, otherwise known as
Niger Jim,'' arrived in Seattle Mon
day, having come out from Dawson
over the ice. The former reached
Shelton Wednesday night, while Tom
Frazer is spending a few days in
Blakely before coming home, having
been joined by Mrs. Frazer; and
Daughtry went to Victoria on business
connected with his mining holdings,
which are quite extensive. Ludgate
is looking fine and says he is feeling
well, although he had a sick spell in
Dawson. He reports an easy trip out
over the ice, and good time, leaving
Dawson. Jan. 18th and reaching Seattle
Feb. 2tst. The party were we'll equip
ped for the journey and had twelve
dogs, two of which Ludgate brought
to Shelton.
Mr.. Ludgate says that work is pro-
crossing as usual with varying luck
and uncertainty, the most promising
claims are being worked in lays and
producing we'll, while a great deal of
work is done which returns but ordin-
airy wages and some realize nothing
for their labor. It was expected that
Thos. McLarty would come out with
the party, but he will await the clean
up before he 1eayes his clay" Lud-
gate and Frazer have done very we'll
and most of the Shelton boys in the
Klondike country seem to be ahead of
the game. Although Faubert and
Solomon A1berts were not doing any
thing when the party left, they had
made some money in freighting and
logging during the fall and winter.
There was no scarcity of provisions,
and prices on most necessaries were
not very high, considering the dis
lance they must be transported.
Mr.. Ludgate is we'll satisfied with
his Alaskan experience, and think
the "Klondike' the greatest mining
section in existence.
