ONE VIEW.

Another candidate has been men
toned for governor against Hoch next
year in the person of ex-Warden
Jewett, who was displaced by w. H.
Haskell at Lansing. The turning
down of Bailey was the wrong thing
to do. The turning down of Hoch for
a second term would be just as bad.
This revolution business in politics is
bad thing to keep everlasting at
work on. 1t may do once in awhile
when things get to a certain point, but
there is no necessity for it this year.
Hoch, we are all willing to admit, is
no world beater. but he is honest and
does things the best he knows how.
The only good to come of it would be
to temporarily satisfy a few fellows
who place faction above party. The
Republican party of Kansas is bound
to pay the penalty if the warning fac
tions do not lay aside their scalping
knives and settle down to something
like harmony.-Osborne Farmer.

POET AND POLITICIAN.

BjOTnstjerne Bjor1son. the poet-pol- itician who has been a conspicuous fig ure in the dissolution of the union be- tween Norway and Sweden, has long been regarded by the Norwegians as their most national writer. With his massive frame and splendid head. he looks more like a fine old warrior than a man of letters, and though his ef- forts in the cause of international ar bitration has given him the name Of the Apostle Of Peace. he is at heart a cumulative man. He does not appear to set great store by his literary work. He declares he would rather see his name on a spade than on book and, for the most part, lives a patriarchaI life nowadays on his farm in the heart of Norway. Bjornson was once asked to mention the greatest pleasure that his poetry had ever given him.
 That" he replied, was when a del egation of political opponents marched to my house and smashed all my win dows, for" he added, they had no sooner done this, and started to march home again. than l heard them sing: Yes, we love this land of ours Ttey had to sing the song of the man whom they had attacl5ed.'
 When BjOrnson kept his seventieth birthday, three years ago. all SCGndl- navia, it may be remembered, celebrat- ed it with him. and congra tulatioas were sent to him from almost every civilized portion of the globe. The considerable sum of money which his countrymen subscribed as a national gift to the poet and his wife on that occasion, was devoted by them to 9 pension fund for teachers. in whose profession BjoTnsOn has always taken the greatest interest. BjOrnson's fath CT was pastor of a church in the Rom dal, one of the most beautiful spots in Norway, and here his early life was spent. Before he became director of the Bergen theater. in 1S57-succeed- ing Ibsen in the post he worked for some years in Christiana as journal ist. Here he subsequently, became di- rector of the theater, and helped to create a national Norwegian repertory. He is an excellent lingUist. speaking English, French, Italian and German. Apparently he cares so little for his literary reputation-he writes be- cause he cannot help it. While ac- tually at work BjornsOn scribbles rap idly. and it is Q fortunate thing for the printers that his wife transcribes his manuscripts before they leave the house, for they are mere masses of scrawls when he is done with them London Graphic.

and master. However, a man without the political authority of a dato might own slaves in tha Moro countries. A man may become the slave of another for debt, or may De adjudged into slavery for crime. Children of slaves are also slaves. as the children of peOns are peons. 4 slave for debt ceases to be a slave when the debt is paid; but while there is a pro forma wage in the case of the peon, there ap- pears to be no semblance of a wage in the case of the Moro debt slave. An employer may, by custom. hog a peon, but is liable to punishment by the court, and so seldom ventures to ear ry this punishment to extremes. But Moro slaves arc sometimes punished by their masters with mutildtion or even death. A slave came into Jolu with his cheeks slit from ear to ear because he told the secrets Of his master. The main difference between peonage and large part of the Moro slavery seems to be one of degree. The influence of the church and the gov ernment has been active in mitigating the institution in the Christian prov inces. while it has retained it's bar barrie form unmodifed among the still unsubjected Moros
