CYRUS LELAND

At the time of the appointment of
the receivers of the Devlin estate. there
was some growing among a certain
class because Cyrus Leland was named
by Judge Pollock as one Of them. These
growls came. not from persons inter-
ested, but almost entirely from those
whom Mr.. Leland had crossed in poll
tics or those who knew nothing about
him, except what they had heard from
his political enemies. The consfdera-
ton OF such persons is directed to the
following just comment in the Leaven-
worth Times:
When Cy Leland, J. T. Hurley and
". Reeves were appointed receivers
for the Devlin estate, there was much
complaint, particularly against Leland.
it being charged by certain political
newspapers that the selection opened
up a nice, easy graft for him and that
between the remaining receivers and
him, there would be a precious little.
left for the creditors The facts in the
case show how little attention these
half-cock criticisms should receive. ON
Tuesday the creditors appointed the
same men trustees of their interests.

ers had administered the estates at

It was no light task that J. S. Dean.
now ex-United States district attorney,
undertook during the closing days OF
his term of Office, which resulted in the
Indictment Of one of the most promi-
nent and influential figures in Kansas
politics. Considering the fact that Mr.
Dean believed Senator Smith one of his
personal supporters in his candidacy
for reappOintment, it must have been
an exceedingly unpleasant duty for him
to present accusations of crime against
Smith to the grand jury.
But unpleasant though it was, Mr.
Dean can have the consciousness Of
having performed his duty, and he
goes back to his home at Marion with
the increased respect of the people of
Kansas. The public official who stands
the test and is not swerved from his
duty by either friendship or personal
fear is worthy of special commenda-
ton, especially when that duty is par
ticularly difficult or distastefuI. Hence
these few remarks.

[From the Atchison Globe.l
The day after you meet the average
man he asks you to take sides.
There may be flattery in jealousy, but
if after man is married, he can't see
it.
Flattery has a pretty bad name, but
it gets better returns than disagree
able candor.
Because a man has dandrun is no
reason why he should advertise it on
his coat collar, is it?
Even you old Scrooges must admit
that there is nothing quite so empty IN
the this world as an empty stocking
When two men get their pencils
mixed, ever notice how jealousy the
owner of the longer pencil insists on
getting his own back?
Time flies so rapidly that it seems
only a few months from the time boy
is crying for a jumping jack until he
is paying for it.
Here is a good old-fashioned saying
to repeat to the man who worries:
Never take more on your heart than
you can kick off at your heels
Since Illuminated texts have become
all the rage, wouldn't this be good
one: mo doctor can cure what ails
you; it's your mean disposition"
When death visits a home there are
