The boosters for Aberdeen want
the legislature to authorize the
Aberdeen normal to confer college
degree. This is only smooth trick
to get the Legislature to make the
Aberdeen institution another state
university The Aberdeen normal
was established to pay political debts;
the state never had use for it. There
are now four normal schools, at least
two too many. We already have one
good university and it is sincerely
hoped the Legislature will not burden
us with another institution Of which
we have no need, and which would
practically destroy the one good
university we now have.

submit proposed amendment to the
constitution prohibiting the legisla
ture from establishing state institu.
ton without favorable vote of the
people. That amendment should
have carried at the last election, and
it would have carried had it not been
for the number of amendments and
laws that discouraged the voters.

1T is reported that an effort viii be
made to have the legislature change
the law in regard to publication
of constitutional amendments and
referred laws on account of the ex-
pense of printing. We are not sur.
prised at this. The publishing of
amendments and referred laws was
quite expensive this year, owing to
the .hAee f:.cc. ffa.cct that 20 many We're referred.
1t is the use of the system, and not
the system itself that is expensive.
Half of the cost of the referred laws
this year was due to the military bill,
very unpopular law, and one that
should never have gotten past the
legislature. We say that we are not
surprised that an effort should be
made to avoid this expense. We are
not surprised for the reason that there
are always some who complain at the
expenditure of little money, regard
less of the good they may receive in
return. We will be surprised, how
ever, if the Legislature should consid
er such complaint seriously. If we
are to have the initiative and referen
dun on our statute hooks, the publica-
tion of the laws is absolutely neces
sary. How can the people vote in
telligently if the lawsa not publish
ed? 1t is not enough to simply print
the title of law any kind OF a
viciousIlaw can be enacted under any
kind of a title. Neither is it enough
to say that nobody reads the laws
published. Voters must read them
to be able to vote intelligently, and
voters will read them when the space
occupied by the laws is not unreason-
ably long, and as soon as they realize
the Importance of being Informed up
on the subject, they will read them
no matter how long. If the law re.
quiring the publication of referred or
proposed laws is repealed, the initia-
tive and referedum should be abolish
ed also, for the latter would be use.

The sub committee having in charge
the investigation of the election OF
Senator Lorimer has found that every
charge brought against the senator
was baseiess. 1t will be reH3t mbered
that at the trial held in the state of
Illinois bribery on the part of some of
the Legislators who voted fol Lorimer
was admitted, although some could
not be held to answer for it as they
went over into the state of Missouri
to receive their share of what Was
commonly called the lack pot" 1t
will also be remembered that Lorimer
was not the choice of the voters of the
republican party, which party was in
the majority, but by wire pulling and
other methods, OF which bribery mas
since proved to be one method, Lorimer
a democrat was elected to the senate
in place of the republican who re,
ceived the endorsement of the party

free use of money, he is bound to

THE. STATES CASE IN THE
MURDER TRIAL OF
DR.. HYDE.

Kansas City, Mo-, May 4.-Practi-
cally all of the opening session of the
Hyde trial today was consumed in
the cross examination of DR.. Victor
G. Vaughn by Atty. Frank p. Walsh.

few minutes before noon.
The state announced that it would
briefly question the physician in the
afternoon and afterward call Mrs.
Logan o. Swope, it's last witness.
Walsh's interrogations were confined
solely to Investigations made upon the
organs of Colonel Swope. A new fea-
ture derived by the defense was the
fact strychnine would accumulate in
one organ of the body.
All of the liver of Colonel Swope has
been destroyed since DIR. Hyde's
scientists applied to DIR. Vaughn for
part of it. Only small part of the
strychnine said to have been taken
from the liver remains, aid none of
the drug found has ever been fully
purified.
