COURTS AND THE STATE.

The tendency of some reformers
to declare it an act of righteousness
when they win and terrible iniquity
when they lose is illustrated in Mis-
souri,. The regulators of public az
fairs are not good losers. The Sedalia
Bazoo tells the story this way:
"A and B engage in the fascinating
game Of draw poker at jefferson City.
They are both amateurs. The game
progresses, and finally Jack Pot
is up as stakes. After both sides
have INDUCED in considerable bet
ting, B "calls" and loses. B "squeals"
and says 1t is not fair, because he
don't want to give up his money
that in some other places the money
is given up, besides Il the winner in
Boonville, TT. Scott and Excelsior
Springs give up, A should do the
same.
"The state of Missouri enacted a
statute that the railroads should
charge only two cents per mile for
travel. The railroads were charg-
ing three cents--henee the one cent
difference was the Jack Pot. The
railroads not being satisfied with the
statute referred the matter to the
United States Judge. Smith McPher-
son. OF course the Judges decision
was to be binding on both parties In
the game.
The Judge heard the evidence and
decided against the state. The rail-
roads held the best hand.

"squeals" from them, but would have
pocketed their discomfort and went
ahead, charging two cents. The state

WANTS ATTORNEY GENERAL.

WANTS ATTORNEY uENAGltAh'
The Beloit Times starts boom
for attorney general in the interest
Of one Of its leading attorneys and
one who would be a credit to the
Republican ticket and the state. 1t
says:
"Beloit will have a place on the
next Republican state ticket. The
many friends of G, L. Kagey, Of this
city. have decided to enter himdn the
race for the Republican nomination
for Attorney General Of the state
Of Kansas. This includes not only
his friends in Belolt, and Mitchell
county but from the Sixth district,
and in fact, all over the state.
"Charlie Kagey is brilliant and
successful lawyer, and his firm,
Kagey & Anderson, enjoys one OF
the largest and most lucratice prac-
tices in the north half OF Kansas
When the proper time comes, the
friends Of Mr.. Kagey will start a Wig
orous campaign in his behalf, pro-
yided he consents to make the race,
which, should he do, would mean
financial loss to him. This has been
proven true wherever an attorney OF
high standing has accepted an cleo
tive office. 1t means that he Will De
compelled to neglect his private bust
ness, and at the salary paid state
officers, it would not be very flat
tering inducement from purely re-
munerative standpoint to accept the
nomination. However 1t is a posi-
ton of honor and trust, and these
considerations would help to offset
the financial loss.
"Mr. Kagey has not been consulted
regarding this matter, and the first
suggestion of starting this boom in
his behalf was made by a Sixth dis
trict editor, who was making short
visit in Beloit last week. We believe
however, that should his friends in
sist upon his making the race, he
could be induced to do SO. Should he
decide to be candidate, we predict
that he will be the next Attorney
General OF Kansas.
