It is In the interest OF the people
that their judges feel absolutely indie
pendent, and to do SO they should
have ample compensation. Judge Of
the supreme court is a high and digni-
fed position. which lawyers seek, but
no man who feels the pinch Of finan'
cial necessity and who continually
realizes that his employment is likely
to be taken away from him by u con-
vention or a general election can he
unmindful of the fact that he must be
looking out for something to do in the
event that such a misfortune should
occur. The salaries Of the supreme
court judges should therefore be In
creased so that they may not only live
with comfort, but accumulate sur
plus for old age.

CAPTAIN CokEY BEGs TO DIFFER.

G. A. r. Commander Declares no Un

Votes, but 10 Pooling Only Himself
Colonel W. A. Harris has declared
that the Southern people~all regret the
fact that there was a war and that
they are all friendly to the North. He
Is intimating to his audiences that the
Southern voters would fall over them
selves to support a Northern soldier
for anything he wanted. He bubbles
over with good will toward the soldiers
who fought against him and hopes
that they will bubble back. On the
subject Of his feelings and what the
real condition in the south is, the To
peka Daily Herald says:
At the Dodge City reunion last week
Colonel Harris made the claim for the
Southern people that they had accept
cd the results of the war and were
willing to abide by them, and that no
man Of the South, today, regretted
the result of the struggle or would
change II II he could. The ;olonel
would have lfs believe, here in Kansas,
that the Southern people are as ready
TO forget and forgive the North as the
North is the South, but he must know
that such is not the case, and In max.
ing the assertions he did should
have expected to have them chal.
ienged.
Captain Coney, Department Com
mander of Kansas G.. A. R., who fol-
lowed Colonel Harris, paid n fine tri-
butte TO the personal character Of the
Democratic candidate, but felt COM
PEELED to take exception to the Col'
Onel's statement with reference to
the South's acceptance Of the result
Of the war. Captain Coney pointed
out that the result of the war was
written in the 14th and 18th amend'
ments to the Constitution of the Unit
ed States, and that instead u &c.
Cepting them and abiding by them
every state in the South was acting in
open defiance Of their provisions. He
cited the case of Hoke Smith, who has
Iust been overwhelmingly nominated
for Governor Of Georgia In a primary
election in which the chief issue was
the disfranchisement of the negroes OF
that state regardless Of the rights
guaranteed them by the Constitution. {
Captain Coney also called attention
10 the fact that in no Southern state
could an ex- Union soldier be elected to
any political office no matter how In.
significant or unimportant 1t was. In
Captain Coney handed this
Very warm one to the colonel:
