AFTER A JUDGE.
Ugly Charges Filed Against
Sedgwick County Officers.
/. p. Campbell Says Gamblers
Warrants Were Held Up.

In an application for an alternative
writ of mandamus filed in the SUI
preme court today. I. P. Campbell,
wichita attorney, makes serious
charge against the judge of the Sedg-
wick county district court, T. C. VIII
son. Campbell alleges that Judge
Wilson refused to issue a warrant for
the seizure of certain gambling appa-
ratus until Sc hours after the applica-
ton for the warrant was made, and
in the meantime he caused the gam
bIers to be tipped off, so that they
could get the stuff out of the way.
The statement is made in the aft
davit in which Campbell states why
he comes to the supreme court for
the writ of mandamus he is asking
for instead of going to the district
court of SedgWick county. Mrs. Sarah
A. King for whom Campbell is at
torney, has started a. war on the gam
bling houses of Wichita, or she has
tried to, but she alleges that the judge
and clerk of the Wichita city court
will not file her complaints or issue
warrants for the arrest of the par
ties against whom she wishes to file
information. 1t is alleged that
George Alexander, the judge, and S.
L. Barrett, the clerk of the city court,
are acting under the direction of o. G.
Eckstein, county attorney of Sedg-
wick county, and that the district
Judge has also stated that he be-
lieves all criminal prosecution should
be instituted by the county attorney.
Campbell then makes the charge that
he has filed information in the dis
trict court and asked for warrants for
the arrest of certain gamblers and the
seizure of their paraph ernalia, but
that the issuance of the warrant has
been held up as stated.
Campbell asks for an alternative
writ of mandamus to compel the
judge and clerk of the city court to
issue the warrants asked for by Mrs.
King. The alternative writ was
granted. returnable June %.

position, and expect to concentrate
their eleven remonstrances into one gi-
gantic remonstrance and file it some
time next week. The time for fling
the remonstrance does not expire until
July 4. Just how much strength the
opposition has developed is not known
Mr. NcNeally said today:
There are about $500 lots in the
district. I know about how many lots
we have on the Temonstrance. We have
taken great pains to allow no names
to go on except resident property own
ers. I do not care to make any eStl-
mate on the number of lots we have
on the circumstances, but we are very
we'll satisfied with our list 1 have in
my possession one list of names six
feet long, and another half as long.

Excursion to Kansas City, Santa Fe
Bright'S Disease and
Diabetes News.
Law Offices of Henley & Costello.
San Francisco, Cal, June II.

San Francisco, Cal, June II.
To the legal profession of Kansas:
1 was a witness to the following:
About two years ago Prof. Yost of Palo
Alto who was in an extreme condition
due to advanced Bright's Disease, came
to my Office. He was attended by his
physician who was himself victim of
Diabetes. The object of the visit was to
meet a prominent business man who
had for months been investigating an
alleged cure for Bright's Disease and
Diabetes, and hear his verdict. He de-
clared that the claims were fully proven
and that the cure had been discovered.
Both Prof Yost and his physician at
once adopted the treatment Within six
months both were so well along towards
recovery that they considered them
selves beyond danger and at this date
neither Bright's Disease nor Diabetes
hold any terrors for them, and the
physician is successfully using the
treatment in his practice.
Learning that my old law partner.
Judge r. r. Bigelow, for many years
Chief Justice of the State of Nevada
had Brights Disease and that though
he had had four or five Of our hest
physicians, yet that he had had to give
up practice and was in a serious con
dition I lost no time in telling him of
the above 1t resulted in his complete
recovery and he is again back to active
practice. As to the durability of chronic

more doubt about it than that I am
