About Mrs. Burton.

Whatever anyone may think of J
r. Burton we do not believe there
is a person in Kansas who does not
have a respect and admiration for
Mrs. Burton. If Burton had been
absolutely true to her all through his
career; if he had taken her into his
councils and followed her advice he
would today be a member of the
United States senate in good stand
ing and ranking as one of it's most
brilliant members instead of serving
out a term in a Missouri Jail. Mrs.
Burton was always an admirable little
woman, but her noble traits of char
acter never showed to a better ad-
vantage than they do now. It was
easy enough to stand up for him, to
cheer him in a political leader, when
men were ready and willing to fawn
upon him for his favor; when he had
patronage and power, but it is not
quite so easy now that he is down
and out, ruined politically, socially
and financially, forsaken by most of
his followers, even stunned by some
who fawned upon him before for fear
that association with him may injure
their political prospects, to stand up
for him, to cheer him in his hour of
humiliation and utter defeat. If
Burton does not at this time regard
his wife with the deepest affection;
if he does not look upon her as next
thing to an angel then he fully de-
serves all the punishment he is get
ting. If Burton ever retrieves him.
self, if he ever RECEIVERS even partial
ly his standing and popularity it will
be on account Of his wife. And for
her sake if not for his own it seems
to us that nearly every Kansan will
hope that there may be brighter
day coming for Burton; that purified
by the fires of adversely his native
ability that everybody comedies, may
yet bring him = measure of success
and that his last days may be his best
days and that to Mrs, Burton in her
old age may come the peace and COM
fort and prosperity that she deserves.

KeIeher Gets a New Trial.

The Supreme Court reversed the
decision of the district court of
Graham county in the murder case
against Charles Keleher. Charles
Wetzel was robbed and murdered in
Graham county several years ago.
Charles Keleher was arrested and
found that Keleher and a man named
Leland Roberts has censpired to rob
Wetzel by attacking him at his home
and then taking his money which was
hidden in his barn. This plan fell
through and the two men planned to
induce Wetzel to go with them on
trip to Kansas City. The three were
to steal rides in a box car and Roberts
aud Keleher planned to rob Netzel
during the trip. As the three were
going down the railaoad track in Hill
City to board a freight train, Wetzel
sat down to fix his shoe. Roberts
confessed at the trial that he picked
up single tree of a wagon lying
beside the track and struck Wetzel
over the head several times. 1t was
shown that Keleher took no part in
the murder but was present, helped
dispose of the body and received a
part of the money obtained from Wet
eel. After Keleher had been con-
yieted of murder in the first degree
Roberts pleaded guilty to murder in
the second degree and in a statement
in open court declared that Keleher
did not conspire in the murder, that
he had nothing to do with it, that he
did not help dispose of the body and
did not receive any part of the money
obtained in the robbery. On this
statement Keleher's attorneys took
the case to the Supreme Court and
the conviction of Keleher was revers-
