S. A. tiopson, Trustee.

S. A. HopSon was appointed trustee
Of Freedom township by unanimous
vote Of the county commissioners, last
Frid ay. !, $50
In the. election Of last November
Mr.. Hopson was elected trustee by a
majority of one. His election was
contested, and being too poor to stand
the expenses Of legal proceedings, he
filed disclaimer which seated his
opponent, r. d. Fogleman., Now,
Mr.. Fogleman was not convinced that
be was legally elected. He therefore
qualified as the law requires and filed
his resignation. The resignation was
accepted by the board during this
January session. Believing that 1t
would be, s. A. HopSon circulated a
petition over his township and recelV-
ed the endorsement OF eighty two Of
his neighbOrS. Mr.. Fogleman also
desired the appointment but filed no
petition.
The action Of both candidates must
be commended. Neither desired to
obtain the position unfairly, and
rather than TO accept under question
able conditions, they themselves
settled the matter by stepping out.
Mr.. Fogleman, 1t is said, was not in
the first place responsible for the con.
test. He was willing to abide by the
result Of the election. Now after a
series Of circumstances, the candidate
who was declared to be elected by the
election board is the one who will
serve his township in the capacity Of
trustee.

The fusion forces of Kansas are
pleased with the political situation.
There Is every indication that The
people are losing confidence in
Republican machine management,

BurtoniSm and Lelandlsm are the
two great forces of Republication In
Kansas. The Burton papers, like the
Topeka Capital, are making a great
fuss about the highhanded schemes OF
the Leland men. Phe Leland papers,
like the Emporia Gazette, are calling
the BurtOniteS everything that is bad,
Each side predicts the downfall Of the
party II the other wins.
Both sides are right. Republican
machine politics Ia Kansas is without
honesty, without decency. High
office is dlShonOred for advantage, and
positions in the public service are used
to bride men into line.
Character and ability count no
longer In the distribution OF
patronage In Kansas. The only show.
ing candidate has to make is that
he can control" somebody.
The Republican machine Is held to-
gether by the cohesive power of
plumber. The people are beginning to
understand 1t and there is grumbling

Republican party, III the fuslonistS put
up another strong ticket. Last fall
the advantage was with the Republic
cans, because the cry went up that
they must sustain the president. :"
In 1904 the president will have to
stand on his merits, and independent

The fusion leaders expect the
Independent Republican to give the

The above article is interesting be.

affairs in Kansas. There Is more
truth than poetry in 1t. There is not

Roosevelt Is their standard bearer.
Kansas is and will be for Roosevelt
but there is more than a possibility
that the state ticket may meet defeat
If the present factional fight contln-
ueS. Therein lies the hope of demo-
cracy in Kansas. Family quarrels
are SenSeleSs and always more or less
disastrous. In this republican family
quarrel the democrats are not only
watching for points Of advantage, but
they are seeking every opportunity to
intensity it. The history Of past de-
feats ought to be sufficient warning.
The republican party ought not to be
for It's own defeat.

Judge Strain Sustained

The case Of Katie Van Dyck has
again been in court. This last time
the matter was habeas corpus pro-
ceeding before Judge Hamilton and
the hearing was had Friday, January
9Th.
The facts In the case are as follows:
Katie Van Dyck now twelve years of
age, whose parents had separated, has
been making her home In the family
Of John Wander Wege for four years.
In that time great affection has
sprung up between herself and her
foster parents. Sometime ago the
parents reunited and desired to obtain
possession Of their child. The child
became almost frantic at the thought
Of leaving her home and after hear
ing Of the case before Frank Strain
probate judge she became the adopted
daughter Of the parents with whom
she wished to live.
Not satisfied with the decision and
order OF Judge Strain, a habeaS corpus
case was brought before Judge Hamil-
ton. After listening to the evidence
produced, Judge Hamilton refused to
grant the desired writ of habeas
corpus and sustained the action Of
Judge Strain.
The people interested in the case
are H0llanderS. A peculiar part Of
their religious creed is that regarding
the duty Of children to their parents.
The commandment "nOnor thy father
and mother: that thy days may be
long upon the land which the Lord
thy God gjyeth thee" had been
forcibly impressed upon the mind Of
the young girl. In rendering his de-
clSlon Judge Hamilton said, 1T is
true there is a scriptual injunction
regarding the duty Of parents tO their
children. But IL Is also true that
there Is another regarding the duty Uf
parents to children. Tne parents
have neglected the child 50 long
that she has become eStranged
from them, so they are moth
ingImore to her than strangers
The only interests to be considered In
this case are those Of the child"
1t was touching case. The
parents seemed to be deeply agitated,
and could hardly refrain from carry
Ing of the Child bodily. An older
sister who recognizes the authority OF
her parents wasalmOst overcome with
grief, but Katie Immediately be-
came quleter when she learned that
she was to remain In the home she so
dearly loved. 1t is an unusual scene
for mother to demand the custody |
OF her own child and to be refused, |
yet there can be no question that
decision was just and the clear and |
fOrclble manner in which Judge
Hamilton rendered il compels admlra-
tion. 1.-THE way Of the tranSgreSsOr
is hard" The unhappy parents Ger.
tainly ought to be In position to
realize the trnth Of that statement to
It's fullest extent. But besides the
parents innocent parties must also
suffer.
1t is hoped that the little girl may
live happily In her adopted home.
Time perhaps will reconcile the sad
dened relatives to their loss, and
perhaps too, it will convince them
that Il wHsall fW the best

CHINESE CAN ENTER.

borers, have been granted permission
by the Department Of Commerce to
enter this country. This order was
issued to the local Inspector of I'm
migration recently, word havine
received at the local Chinese consulate
to this effect. The Chinese left this
country over a year ago to go to their
own country. Under their return per-
mits, they could not be absent longer
than a year. The men succeeded in
having their time of absence extended
by an American consul in China. When
they arrived here June 2S on the S. 5.
City of Picking they were refused a
landing. An appeal was taken on the
ground that an extension of time by an
American consul was not subject to re-
view by any immigration official. This
position appears to have been sustained
by the department.
