Senator Chandler, of New Hamp
shire, is being opposed for reelection
by the politicians upon the rather
unique ground that "the railroad in,
terests of the country are against him."
Senator Chandler has opposed the wa
tering of railroad stock and the con-
solidation Of railway interests without
sufficient governmental regulation and
control, hence from his party's stand
point he is just as deserving Of de-
feat as was Attorney General Mon,
nett, of Ohio, for opposing the trusts.

SOME OF THE CONSEQUENCES.

The recent election has left the Re-
publican party in complete control of
every branch of the government, not
only for the remainder of Mr.. Mckln-
iey's present term of Office, but its
lease of power has been projected at
least two years into his second term.
He will dominate the next Congress
through majority so large and so
entirely subservient to his will that
he has but to formulate his policies
to insure their early and thorough go
ing execution.
But with this extension of power in
the hands of the President there goes
along a correlative responsibility which
cannot sit lightly on the shoulders OF
any man, and much less upon man
who in all his long career has never
moulded any constructive legislation
Vast interests too, which have been
largely helpful in electng him botl
to his first and his second terms, will
be clamoring for recognition, ant
varied and untried problems VIII press
upon him for solution, many of whicl
must be inimical to the welfare OF thu
people; so that, taken altogether, Mr.
McKinley's victory is not to be a thini

Ring out the voices sweet and clear:

DEATH OF HARRY Stafford

The death of H. c. Stafford leaves a
vacancy in the Topeka bar that can
not be filed.
Mr.. Stafford was recognized as one Of
the best trial lawyers in Kansas While
he may have been less profound than
the majority of members in his pro-
fession. he had few equals before a
jury When his tremendous energy was
thoroughly aroused and his magnificent
mind was at its best he was the terror
of opposing counsel and the admiration
of jurors and spectators.
1t was as a prosecutor of criminals
that Mr.. Stafford excelled. There was
little use for the cringing evil-doer to
attempt to dissemble before Mr.. Stafford
His fire of cross questions resembled the
clatter of a gatling gun, and aggravat-
ingly methodical, painfully persistent,
the falsework of perjury crumbled be-
fore him. He was a past master in the
art of cross examination, and there is
not lawyer in Topeka who will not
acknowledge that in this branch of the
practice Harry Stafford had no equals.
There was much good in Harry SAT-
ford His heart was as soft as wo-
mans and his sympathetic nature
reached out and encompassed all man
kind. It is doubtful if Harry Stafford
ever did a mean or dishonest act. He
was too gentle in business to be a sue
cess as a manager. He was a poor col
lector and that had much to do with
the fact that he was not a rich man.
Topeka will miss Harry Stafford.
