Mr.. Garten, of the Cimar ron
Sentinel, have you anyone you
would like to back in a foot race?
We would like to get up a little
sprint for most any old date
Meade News.
This is the first intimation we
have received that the News man
was a foot racer, but in order to
show him that we are game the
Sentinel editor hereby challenges
him to run 5O-yard race for SIS
a side-moving start, and the
first one out takes the money.
Set the date and we will be on
hand.-Cimarron Sentinel.
You judge us wrongly-we
never claimed to be a sprinter
ourselves, but as you make some
pretensions along this line, Mr..
Sentinel Editor, and no one will
doubt that you are game, just
come over on the 4th of July and
take part in the races on that day.

Kansas Biennial Election Law.

Kansas Biennial Election Law.
Two cases of great importance
to the people of Kansas are pend
ing in the supreme court of that
state. They are to test the val
idity of the biennial election law.
The court has advanced them for
hearing this month, and an early
decision is expected.
The biennial election bill went
through both houses of the last
legislature without a dissenting
vote. 1t was generally regard
ed as a wholesome measure, the
intention of the statute makers
being to do away with of-year
elections. thus saving the people
hundreds of thousands of dollars
besides lot of worry and strife.
After the bill had become law,
a rider was discovered which
gave the governor authority to
appoint district judges to take
the places of those whose terms
of office expire at the c1oseof this
year, AS Governor Stanley is a
candidate for United States Sen
ator, it will readily be seen that
the control of the patronage of a
dozen judicial districts would be
of value to him in the furtherance
of his political ambition.
The discovery of the rider was
a surprise to nearly every mem
Der of the legislature. Only a
few who were in the confidence
of the Stanley managers knew
about it, and as the bill went into
the hopper toward the heel of the
session and was railroaded
through on thr theory that there
was no opposition to it, the rider
escaped attention. The name of
the person who pasted the rider
to the original bill has never been
made public by the Stanley man.
ayers.
Judge II. F. Carver, of Topeka,
a republican who formerly occu-
pied a position on the appellate
bench, gave an opinion that the
rider invalidated the bill. AS
sistant Attorney General West
held that the law is constitution
al. In his opinion West said that
even if the rider should be knock
ed out, the biennial election feat
ure of the act would stand. Test
suits were then commenced.
The validity of the rider was
questioned on the ground that the
constitution says district judge
shall hold his office till his sue
cessor is elected and qualified.
A vacancy, therefore, cannot be
created by Legislative enactment.
The biennial election law pro-
yides that all officers whose terms
expire this year, except judges,
may hold over till next year, and
the law for an election the com.
ing fall is repealed.
Whether the rider is constitu-
tional is a question for the su.
preme court to determine, but
the manner in which the clause
was incorporated in the bill is
condemned as a piece of political
vandalism by all fair-minded men,
1t is believed by many and hoped
by everybody that the court will
find sufficient law to save the bi.
ennial feature of the statute in
dispute, even if the Stanley aid
clause has to be thrown out
