JUDGE DAVID MARTIN DEAD.

Judge David Martin died at Atchison, Sun
day, at II o'clock. He had been poorly fol
some time. His death was due to pneumonia,
complicated with heart disease.
Judge Martin was widely known. He was
one of the most popular lawyers in the West.
He filled tie Office of district judge one term,
and was reelected without opposition. He re-
signed his office to become member of the
law firm of Waggener & Orr. Governor Nor
rell appointed him chief justice of the supreme
court in the place of Judge Horton, who resign
ed. At the next election, he was elected to the
same place by large majority, but his deci-
sions did not suit the corporations, and year
later, the Republicans defeated him. Judge
Martin was nominated for associate justice by
the Populists and Democrats last year, but was
defeated with the rest of the ticket
In his death, the state and the bar suffer
severe loss

BOWMAN FOR CONGRESS.

The Topeka State Journal has started a con-
gressional boom for our representative, Hon.
N. L. Bowman. The Journal says:
Noah L. Bowman, of Anderson county, who
has made brilliant record on the minority
side of the house, may win, by this self-same
record, nomination for congress in the Second
congressional district. Bowman's clear-cut
logic in every house fight that he enters into
won for him, early in the session, the respect
of the rest Of the house, Republicans and tus-
ionsts alike. His reasoning and arguments
have had more effect upon legislation than
many strong men on the majority side of the
house. Bowman separated from the
Republicans on the tree-siver ISSUE and was
nominated by the "Demo-Pops" for his present
position. What the ticket will be called that
he may be called upon to adorn in opposition
to Bowersock cannot be named now that every
thing is up in the air by reason of the anti
fusion law just passed by the Republicans.

The Duty Of Officers.

Hutchinson Observer.
Discussing the temperance question, the In
terror Herald has stated the case and the situa-
ton so we'll and clearly that we reprint the
extract below:
"This fact remains Only officers of the
law can keep the laws enforced. The people
have something else to do, and, for that reason,
elect officers to enforce the law, and tax them
selves to pay them salary Unworthy officers
and unworthy citizens are what is in the way
Citizens can act as police for little while, but
their other duties call them away. 1t is the
occupation-the "business'-of the proper Of
ficers 20 enforce the law, and the law designates
quite plainly what officers are meant. If the
people can only educate the police and other
officers that it is their duty to enforce the law,
the trouble will be over. But while they are
allowed to hold the position, while choosing
the laws they will enforce, no permanent results
will be obtainable. The thing for the citizens
to do is not only smash the joints, but also to
smash unworthy officers of the law"
