Fake Revolt nm Excuse to XIII Hi

Enemies.
The stov Of the fake revolt used by
ex-king Milan as an excuse for tortur-
ing and killing some Of his enemies is
told by Sterling Heilig in the New York
Press. When all was ripe. Milan hired
some obscure tramp to fire blank shot
ut him. Captured. the "assassin" con-
fessed a plot, involving all the more hon
est statesmen of the Liberal party. Then
the fellow nysteriously escaped. His
testimony remained. however, and on it
and some alleged police reports whole
sale arrests were made, and the world
heard of II treason trial in Serva. timed
to coincide with that of Rennes. Milan
calculated that the wider interest of the
Dreyfus scandal would absorb the inter
est of civilization and throw his own
deeds into the shadow.
But the verdict given on Sept. % new

the European press. Knezevtch was

reading the wit and philosophy and
mysticism of the coyote country.
zineY' was sensibly discussed by the
clever gentleman who suggested the
question in Il little paragraph month
ago. The general opinion of the AS
ISOLATION seemed to be that we would
like to have one and that the gentle
mau who should put up hundred
thousand dollars TO start one should
have the undivided sympathy of the
Association and would be put upon
the exchange list with great zeal and
energy. A lso a committee was APP
pointed to look for such a person. APP

paper.
The "Question Box was new
feature of the program, and as con-
Quoted by Mr.. Herbert, of the
National PrinterJOurnalst, was one of
the most interesting and valuable.
Our notion of an ideal editorial assocl-
alton program would be an all day
session with Mr.. Herbert or some
other level headed and experienced
man at the question box; and an all
night session of--talking with the
boys
Away back in the fiities, in the time
of the "Troubles," little wiry Eng
lishman came out to Kansas to tell
the readerssof the New York Tribune
about it. He saw it all and wrote
about it all and was part of much of
it, being delegate to all the conven-
tions-as representative of the
''great Ne-ho-sho valley" as he al
ways took pains to announce a
soldier in all the forays, an officer of
the Wyandotte constitutional conven-
tion and finally soldier in the big
war which followed the little one.
This wiry little Englishman, now a
stout, florid New Yorker with the
long locks and the flowing beard of a
past generation, now revisiting Kan
sas after an absence of forty years,
stood before the editors and told them
! of ''The pens that made Kansas free -
Told the story of the old boys and
the old years and the old battles, with
smiles and tears and sometimes with
a vehemence that was vivid remind
er of the passion of the days that
stirred mems blood. 1t was no Won

boys stood up and gave three cheers
for the veteran of the pen and the
sword.

THE MEETING OF THE EDITORS

The annual meeting of the Kansas
Editorial Association at Fort Scott
this week was reunion ofold friends,
for the most part hardly half dozen

singular that out of some seven hun.

1t goes without saying that those who
always come are the ones who
most enjoy the meetings and get the

that is the one who stays at home all
the time.

The business part of the program
was of rather uncommon interest, it
seemed to this deponent. 1t was worth
aomething to see the stalwart form of
Old General Rice, unbent by the
weight Of his eighty years, and to hear
the burly voice of him bidding well
come in the name of the city to the
men with whom he had worked and
played and fought for thirty years
And it was worth a journey to see the
ahectionate, good natured and always
respectful way in which the boys
guyed President Martin because it
was so evident that he wished him
self anywhere else but on the plat
form in front of all those people. And
it was so natural and pleasant to hear
the good Col. ID. II. Anthony telling
what hard time of it he had had
telling the truth all these years in
Leavenworth, and how many times
he had been obliged to fight to keep
the peace. 1t was interesting too, as
it always is, to hear Conner Davies
drily joking himself about his wooden
leg and the race he made with it fol-
the Senate and telling incidentally a
lot ofhard sense about how to run q
successful newspaper. And it was
