ton of the organization is very good
as nearly every member has paid up
his dues and those who have not

A COMMON-SENSE COURT.

(From the Kansas City Starr

(From the Kansas City Starr
A Kansas statute defining embex-
element was printed with the word
estate" for state" 1t provided pun
ishment for an ESTATE, county or
city officer who should misappro-
pirate the money intrusted to mis-
care. A lower court held that as the
word state" was not in the statute.
IL was not a crime in Kansas for O.
State officer to embezzle funds. BUT
the Supreme Court of the State re-
verses that ruling. 1t holds that the
clear intent was to prohibit and pen
alize dishonesty by State, county ana
city officers and that the printing of
the letter "e" before the word s,ate
was simply an inconsequential error
of the printer.
All hail the Supreme Court of
Kansas. This court does NOT believe
that the illiteracy of a typesetter or
clerk should prevail over the mani
fest morality and common sense of q
great people. This court actually
does not offer premium to the igno-
rance or dishonesty of a print shop
or a prosecuting attorneys Office. In
some sister States all an attorney for
