Citizen Wilson's Suit

The Yuma Sun declares that Senator Ives IS diligently prose outing his taxpayers suit against Ex-Auditer Vickers and Gov. Murphy. Certainly he is diligent nov, for the voters of Yuma county will hardly return him to the Legislature to set his record right with the la5oring man un- less he can compel Gov. Murphy to influence the Board Of Control to spend the S3e,0oo dollar ap- propriatiou on that Territorial disgrace, the Yuma pen.
 Senator Ives is raising the ned about a sum of money less than one third of the amount he wants squandered in Yuma county.
 Not much longer are the other counties of Arizona going to sub init to the enormous expense of sending prisoners to the Territor- ial prison located in the edge of California and nearer to the bor- der of Mexico than to the border of the majority of the counties of the Territer y.
 The people of Arizona will demonstrate at the next election that they believe that Charity begins at home, hence they will send men 10 the next Legislature who are in favor of placing the penal Institution of the Territory at some equitable location within our borders. where the money ex- pended for the support of the Institution will be spent fol kolne products and home labor.
 If Governor Murphy and the Board of Control will stand pat" for a little more than a year now, the Arizona Peaitentiar5 will be moved and the $50, that the New York politician wants wasted in the Arizona Seaport Town. will go long ways toward building a new peni- tentiary. And the people ot Arizona will appreciate this as they should do and will re- ward the Governor in the future
 This is not political question It is question of economics ana locality. Yuma wants a substau- tial prison built so that she may hold the prison in that out of the way corner of the Territory. Mir Ives is scheming politi ,ian. Any man of his stamp is too sell fish to be trusted far for sincerity.
 Whether Mir. Wilson wins or loses his great Ives suit which we are calling Citizens suit fer the sake of form, we hope that the

WY BE UNJusT ?

The state wants the land that the gov
eminent has said it can have-the G, 200
acres comprising the Fort Hays military
reservation: but the state is not sure
that the land really belongs to it. 1t was
offered by the government. evidently In
good faith, but the question arises: Is
the land the governments to give. The
legislature last winter acted in good
faith when it accepted the land from the
government, for the legislature thought
that the land actually belonged to the
government. There was a stipulation
in the offer of the government, and that
was that the land should be used by the
state both for a branch of the agricul-
turai college and a branch Of the state
normal. This was all agreed to by the
legislature.
Now the question comes up: was the
land in the possession OF the government
at the time it was offered. 1t seems that
it was not. The records show that the
government had thrown the lands open
to settlement and that a number Of set
tiers had taken claims there. Under The
law the settlers were in the right; they
have the land and they have complied
with the law IN getting 1t: that T.. they
have settled there and the land they have
taken is subject to appraisement. There
is but one way the state can get them
of O.. the land, and the state proposes to
do that thing. The scheme is to raise
the eppraisement 50 high that the sci
tiers can not remain there because they
can not pay for the land at the rate
which it win be assessed-s30 per acre
The legislature did not intend that an
injustice should be done to the settlers.
Cor the legislature did not know thar
there were settlers On the land: but II

bly, pave not varied much. The people in

ANOTHER UNIVERSITY IN
TOPEKA

Ten years since land was purchased
three miles southwest of Topeka on
which to establish a university under
the direction Of the NJ. E. church. This
was at about the close Of the boom
period, and the scheme failed. The land
has reverted to its original owner.
Meanwhile another project has taken
form and shape. Mrs. Eliza Chrisman,
who died a year ago. left the residue of
her property to be used in founding a
university under the auspices Of the
NJ. E. church which shall be situated
within the city of Topeka, provided the
friends Of education shall raise a sum
equal to the residue Of that estate.
Still another friend who has both
money and the benevolent disposition.
has been discovered, and the proposition
which is now to be considered is whether
Topeka wants an institution of higher
learning with 1900 students in her midst.
Baker university would doubtless
come here if the proper inducements are
offered The enrolment is already 627.
while the number Of Methodist young
men and women seeking college advant-
ages and unable to be accommodated at
Baldwin is at least 1900 more.

RED BADGE OF coURAeE.

Since the penitentiary mutiny brought
out a dozen notable instances of per-
sonaI bravery, it is found that courage
counts wherever it is displayed That
the battlefield is alone the place to gain
the red badge Of courage is again dis
proved. Heroes are made every day
and they come out from among the lowIy
lives more frequently than from the
higher grades.
The happy outcome of the penitentiary
insurrection saved Kansas from another
round of cuttings at the hands of distant
critics. The bravery of a handful of
Kansans, and one a daring negro con-
vict is entitled to and gets that credit.
Outsiders were just ready to jump on the
state again. The merciless critic
chuckled that no sooner does Mrs. Ma
ton subside and the white-winged dove
of peace coo over the Sunhower state
than there's something fiercer doing"
He never had a chance to shoot his dart
Before he had it half fitted to his bow
string the point of it was broken by the
astounding turn that was given the cpl
sode, and rather than acknowledge the
merit that accomplished this end, the
critic drops his shaft and waits for
something else to turn UP.
Nevertheless it is not quick forgetfu1-
ness of the incident that is wanted, if the
meaning of the mutiny is that the dis
cipline of the institution Is in danger
from political reasons. The quicker the
horizon is cleared of the charge the
better. There has been enough peniten-
tiary talk all winter to amount to
scandal, and the effect of this uprising
just at the time that a change is sched-
uled in the management Of the institu-
ton should have a wholesome effect. It
is warning to the petty politicians to
stand back and work their patronage
somewhere else. This is a good time to
start in It has been proven that lives
are at stake as well as dollars.

BASEBALL OUTLOOK FOR 1901

Baseball is a sport that the American
public never seems to tire of. The cry

claim by the fans from the opening
until the close of the season.

mona and cheer or rage as the case may
be.
This promises to be a year of splendid
ball because both big leagues will be on
their metal and the rivalry will be so
fierce that the public may expect to pro-
fit.
On the whole the American organiza-
ton promises to be rather the stronger
this year and will perhaps draw the
grea est crowds in the cities where there
are Two clubs in existence.
At the present writing it will be hard
TO pick a winner in the American league.
McGraw's Baltimore aggregation Ger

there is the Chicago club and the Bus

race In the National the Pirates Of
Pittsburg easily seem the stronger. To

and it is hard to replace them. St. Louis
