NIB. HOWE,s LETTERS.

The return of Mr.. E W. Howe to
Atchison after circumnavigating the
globe-not the Atchison Globe in this
instance-recalls that the series of let
tiers that he has been writing on his
travels will, in the course of time. come
to an end. Still it is comforting to know
that the letters viii continue for several
weeks. Notwithstanding the fact that
Mr.. Howe is already back in Kansas.
According to the letters Mr Howe is
now in the Holy Land. This is account
ed for by the fact that Mr.. Howe came
along with his letters after he left
India. Until he got half way around
the world-that is, somewhere between
China and India-the letters came back
by way Of San Francisco but after he
passed the half way point the CORE
spondence came west by way of Europe
and New York. If Mr.. Howe and his
daughter had come directly through
from India they would have reached
home at the same time as the letters
he sent from that country. but as the
travellers stopped at various places the
letters gained a few days.
These letters from the weIl-known
Atchison editor have been read and en-
joyed by thousands. And their read
ers have not been confined to Kansas,
but extracts from them have been
published all over the country. A re-
cent issue of Harper's Weekly contains
this editorial reference to them:
THE chances are that any newspaper
a. man picks up just now viii remind
him that E. W. Howe. Of the Atchison
Globe, is travelling round the world. Mr..
Howe is the man who wrote a very
sombre. 1ead-colored book about 20
years ago. called The Story of a Country
Town. It was gloomy wit, very stitch
ing. fun of bad weather and red mud,
but had a curious fascination about It.
Howe apologized for It by saying that
II had all been written after working
hours, when he was tired and could not
smile.
Mr.. Howe is one Of the most reluct-
ant travellers that Kansas ever sent out
He likes Kansas, and prefers to stay
there We don't know how he was tn-
duced to take to the road. When he got
to Honolulu he was homesick and long
t ed to come home, but was ashamed, and
gritted his teeth and went on. He was

ali things like q man who has never

MR.. WILLIAMS RESIGNATION


BY the resignation of Mr. F. L. Will
Jams from the position of secretary. to
the governor. Governor Hoch viii lose
the counsel OF a good attorney, for Mr.
Williams has the reputation both 1t
home and abroad Of being q drst-elass
lawyer. And the governor really has
need OF good lawyer to whom he can
go for legal advice-considering the ey-
perience Of the state in connection with
the present attorney general.
There has been a disposition In some
quarters to believe that the firm Of Cole
man & Williams of Clay Center. which
is made up Of the attorney general and
the retiring secretars- to the governor,
has a fondness for being connected with
the states payroll, but Mr.. Williams
resignation demonstrates that this is
not true, so far as he is concerned at
least.
And there has been some ground for
this belief. Mr.. Coleman came to To-
peka as the states attorney general at
a salary Of $500 a year. Soon after
wards his son wished to take a law
course at Washburn and Mr.. Coleman
appointed him as stenographer in the
attorney. generals Office at a salary of
$500 a year-which came out of the
state treasury. Several months ago Mr..
Williams came to Topeka as the gov.
errors secretary at a salary of $4,000
a year This brought both members OF
the law firm to Topeka. with offices near
one another in the state house, and
there seemed to be no reason why much
of the firms law business could not be
transacted here. But there was one i'm
portant adjunct lacking-the firms
About that time there was a vacancy
IN the attorney generals Office. SO Mr..
Coleman promoted his son, who was still
studying law in the Washburn law
school, to what is commonly known as
the position of second assistant attor-
ney general at a salary of 81. 200 a year.
This made vacancy on the payroll
for a stenograp her. and the firms stem
! ographer was brought down from Clay
Center and given the salary of $500 a
year from the state. This made a total
of $500 a year for the firm and Mr..
Coleman's family. And among them
with frequent trips to Clay Center on
the part of Messrs. Coleman and Will
Jams and the stenographer, the firm :
law business there was kept up. Il
really looked as though Attorney Gen
eral Coleman was playing a sort Of
Richard L. McCurdy part towards tbs
state
But Mr. Williams has given up his
/ s., 600 a year as the governors secre-
4 tary and is going back to Clay Center
/ OF course a lawyer of his ability IS
worth much more than that. and not
withstanding some pecu1arities, Mr.
/ Williams is really a pretty good sort
of a man. There will doubtless be times
when Governor Hoch will miss his abil-
| fty as lawyer.

Farmers cannot make it rain. but

pertence, we can reasona bly, expect
