NOTAS SUELTAS.

Una circular del Attorney indica
todos los funcionarios judiciales, que
deben abstenerse de hacer poIftica.
81 alto principle equitativo y justO
y moral de esa determination del At

razonada circular del Attorney, en- 10

que tales indicaciones Sc cumplan; que
los funcionarios judicisles no Sc dis

Porque ciertamente. NADIA hay mas
immoral que yer & los empleados en- ge-

some grubbing among vocal cords for

the compressed air Of the Crawford
opera house, but they were almost rare
as hens teeth The difficulty seemed
to lie with his repertoire Mr. Wilson
ought 70 ma some songs similar TO the
ones which Reese Pr0Sser warbled in
Al G. Fel1s Ministries the other night.
But the audience applauded everything
he sang and seemed TO want more.
AS a comedian, however, Mr.. Wilson
really shone. He probably can put more
German scenery around English words
and get a better sauer kraut plus beer

he can display his ability as a fencer.

It is certainly a blessing that ua

FREEhAN FOR TREASURER.
Movement in Beloit to Have Him
Nominated.

BeIoit, March 2s--One can always
hear politics talked in Beloit- Several
politicians happened to meet there a
few days since, mostly opponents Of
chances of winning in the election next
fall One of the number was Joseph
Wear, a Mitchell county POpulist, who
has an extensive acquaintance in the
Sixth district, and besides is favorably
known in the state, and who owns a
$500 acre ranch in Mitchell county,
and stocked with from 300 to 600 head
of cattle. and from $50 to 200 head of
horses. and a large number of hogs.
Asked as to who could win for COVER
nor on the Deu9ocratic ticket, Mr..
Wear said That in his opinion Sen
ator Harris could easily be elected He
is a clean, honest man, and the people
of Kansas know this of this man Har-
rfs'
Coming down the list to state treas
urer Mr.. Wear was for d. A Freeman
of Beloit, who he said. If elected
could furnish his own bond without
going beyond the confines of his coun-
ty of Mitchell, if necessary Mr.
Wear paid Mr. Freeman the happy
compliment by saying that he located
in the county in 1871 He has filled the
office of mayor of Beloit, was elected
county treasurer when Mitchell county
was Republican, and was the nominee
4 of the Democrats for congress in the
Sixth district in 1892 While not seek
/ ing the nomination for state treasurer,
I Mr. Wear says that Mr.. Freeman has
an extensive acquaintance, and would
be a strong candidate for the office,
and II nominated he is certain Mr.
/ Freeman would put all his time in the
campaign to secure his election Al
the present time Mr. Freeman IS own
