The Kansas City Star,
speaking Of Governor Hoch's
connection with the suit
brought for the M. K. & T.,
says: AN analysis of this
case makes il clearer than
ever that Mr.. Hoch was fully
qualified for membership on
the ticket nominated by the
railway managers of the To-
peKa convention. There is
no longer any reason to make
distinctions between the Gov.
ernor on the one hand and
the more directly obvious
railroad candidates on the
other. They are all of the
same class. The timely de.
velopment of the Katy suit
fully harmonized the Cover.

ticket"

The federal courts have
acted against the stand of
Governor Hoch in the M. K.
& T. suit whereby that rail
road hoped to secure several
million dollars worth of land
in the Territory. Don't get
scared there won't be any
costs to pay, as the railroad
agreed to pay them. And yet

The newspapers of the state
are having a great deal Of
fun at Gov. Hoch's expense
on his lately acquired kissing
and hugging record. But

deeds and misdeeds of the
other members of his admin.

sion and omission Of the past
two legislatures and the
wishywashy nambypamby,
corporation serving platform
on which he is standing for
re election, that should finish
him and his clique for all
time. The people Of Kansas
are not going into this cam
paign blindly. The issues
are clear and if they persist
in voting for the corporations
with the light they have,
then the railroads and other
great monied institutions
will be licensed to carry on
their present system of bust.

The corporations expect to
elect their ticket this fall on
the strength of the handsome
republican majority of two
years ago. They reckon with
out their host. The men who
made up that majority are
the same ones who, voting as
populists a few years ago,
swept the state. Enticed
back to the republican ranks
by false promises they carried
that party to victory. But
the corporations have made a
mistake in thinking they can
make them swallow any old
thing, they are too intelligent
for that, and will register
their protest next fall.

Of Anton Lambert, 23 years old. for
the murder OF Jacob Schwartz. was
commenced today before Circuit Judge
Richter and a jury. Lambert has had
a remarkable criminal career. Before
he was is years old he killed boy

cution on the claim that Il was an ac-
cident. Since then he has been In the
reformatory and has long police rec
ord.
The murder OF schwartz took place
one Sunday in May in South Bend.
Lambert did not deny the shooting.
but claimed he was drunk. and there
fore not responsible. Three months
ago as the result Of services held in
the jail by the Epworth League Lam
bert professed conversion and repudi-
ated his alleged first confession, now
denying that he killed Schwartz. SO
strongly are the Epworth Leaguers
OF his Innocence that they
