X, Morrill, our newly elected governor vvil, be tha tirst Republican governur of Kaiidaj during- the last quar ter of a couiury who has on going into the exo'-uti ve office found all tha ap pointive offices in the state Hi led by members of an opposing political parly. Heretofore Republican governors have in a measure jeen hampered by a set of old time politicians who have held on with death like grip to the Lest ap- p Jint: ve offices in the state, managing by t ieir h ;ir polit'.cal combinations to maintain positions from one administration to til 3 next. It is different now, however. Governor Lowmlinj; wlna he took the executive chair two years ago made a clean sweep aud he was oojv ia office a short time until ill the i.ppointive positions in the stale were Idled by Populists instead of liepu blicaus. Governor Merrill is already being pes tered by the political manipulators of his party who want promise of appoint ments for themselves and their friends. The gavernor will not, it is hoped, allow tbeo spoils hunters to burden hiia with promi-es, the keeping of which will weaken his administration. It is natural, ho.vever, that the men wao lougm ue names 01 tne party in this campaign should be seeking- their reward for party services and already tnere is a loru list of anxious Republi- cans who would like to know if thev are to get a job wcrth $75 a a year or no job at all. month or $3, 000 Warden of the Penitentiary. C). S liiatt or Leavenworth county. George 11. Case of Jewell county. William iiigpins of Shawnee county and Kansas Cry, .Mo. '1 he job whi m is conceded to be tha most desirall'i ia the state for the man who doesn't care much for associations, is the wardens nip of the state peniten tiary at Leavenworth. The waruen gets ifi.', 500 a year and the living expenses for himself and f anidy, arid is always able to rovidf a few members of his family with fctnalU-r jobs with salaries paid by the btate. J he throe m3n already mentioned as waiting the wardeuship are U. S. Jiiatt, of Leavenworth, Geo. II. Case of Man kato, who was warden under the last lie publican administration, and ex-Secretary of State vv. iliiarn Higgins, with John 1 1 igg ins, a brother of the ex-secretary, slated for deputy warden. J. V. Moore of Marion was until re cently considered a candidate for war den, bat he has lately been switched olF, and is now said to be anxious for a posi tion on the tate board of railroad com missioners. Ititilroat! Commissioner. J. M. Simpson of Mcpherson county. J. W. Moore of Marion county. Lyman L". II ampiirey of Moutgomery county. Geo. T. Antlotiy of Franklin county.

Bruce Lynch of Xeosho county. Charles S. Elliott of Siiawnee county. Eu ne llag au of Shawnee county. Joht. X. Ives of Shawnee countv. J. S. Kichardson of Sedgwick county. J. L Kristow of Saline county. James Humphrey uf tieary county. There are tliree railroad commission ers to be appoi ue 1, two liepublicans and one De mocrat, lu will for their services receive salaries of 3,000 a year. One beauty of the railroad commis sionership is that all the railroads are compelled to furnish each commis sioner with free transportation and the commissioners get I'uliman and Wagner passes besides. Among the candidates for railroad commissioner most talked about is J. M. Simpson, the former chairman of the rate central committee, and the man who did the letting for the committee during the late campaign. Xext in order come J. W. Moore of .Marion, Simpson's brother-in-law; ex Governor Lyman U. Humphrey of independence; ex-Governor George T. Anthony of Ottawa, who was on the last Republican board; Rev. Bernard Kelly, one of the original Mor rill men and a man who did as much campaign work as any one aside from the candidates. Then there is P. G. Xoel, the ex-To-paka banker; O. B. Tavlor, a Leaven worth wholesale grocer; G. W. Clements, an ex-mayor of Wichita. Captain E. 11. Brown, who was last week elected to tlie legislature from Crawford county; J. Bruce Lynch, the caudida: for state treasurer on the tick et two years ago who wants to represent the interests of the railroad men on tha board; Charles S. Eiliott, the former sec retary of the board who jiaJt) an excep tionally fine record this year in conduct. inr the Shawnee county campaign, is talked of as the "young crowd'' candi date. There is to be a Democratic member of the board of railroad commissioner! aud Eugene Hagan. it is said, is slated for that position, althourh J. S. Richari- j son, the chairman who conducted David i Overmyur's campaign, aud ex-Attorney j General John X. Ives are both mentioned j in this connection. Whoever the Demo j cratic member may be his appointment I will be made when approved by David i Overmyar. In the appointment of the new board I of railroad commissioners Gove 'nor Mor i rill wiii bo met with demand to give the places on this important board to the j men who are the largest shippers in the I state. I he wholesale grocers and jjbbersof Wichita, Hutchinson, Saiiaa, Junction City, Atchison and Leaveuwol'Ji ajre al ready organizing and will demand that they be allowed to name the new commissi jners instead of the places being given ;ia rewards to politicians, who will be tools in the hands of the railroads. The i bbers made dematid of this g appointed the kind when Gov. Lewel present board, out taeir interests were snubbed, and for that reason they gave their united support this year to the Re publican ticket. At Wichita, ex-Mayor G. W. Ciements is already a candidate, while the north eastern cities are pushing O. B. Tavlor, the Leavenworth wholesale grocer. Sa liu.i and Junction City each have a can didate. J. 1 Bristow is mentioned as the Salina candidate and Judge James Humphrey, who was the Democratic member of the board under the tirst term of (i.jveciur Humphrey's adminis tration, is talked of, although he is uow a district judge at a sa.ary of iJ-,0'J0 a year. State IJ nlc Coiniuissioiier. Charles i Johnson of Jefferson county. Charles M. Sheldon of Osaga county. John T. Showalter of Sumner county. M. W". Levy of Sedgwick county. The ofhee of state bank commissioner is a much coveted priie which pays a salary of f'-'.oOU a year an 1 the appointee when continued by the senate holds for a term of four years unle ss removed for cause. Commissioner Braid-mthal is likely to hold on to this oliice unless he is removed for cause, but it ia unlerstool that an effort wiil be made to get a supreme court ruling in regard t the term of that oliice simiiar to the ruling made regard ing the Topeka city assessor case in which Oscar ilischoC although appointed for two years was removed at the expir ation of one. Charles E. Johnson of Oskaloosa. who served on the campaigi committee, wants his old job back and Le has a strong pull. Charles M. Sheldon of Burlingame, president of the state Rap albican leatrue. is also a c anui lata for bank commis sioner and it ia sail that M. W. Levy, president of the big Wichita bank which failed this summer, has aspirations along this line as has also John T. Showalter of Sumner, a county which held up its end in this year's light State Superintendent of Insurance. IC. E. W ileoxson of Logan county. V II. Mc Bride or Osborne county. Web Wilder of Wyandotte county. C. G. Biakely of Shawnee county. The office of state superintendent of insurance, like that of l ank commission er, must be declared vacant before it can be filled. The insurance commissioner gets $.1,000 a year for a term of four years, unless removed for cause. State Senator K. E. Wilcoxsou of Oak ley is said to have his eyes on this job as a partial payment for his services on the executive committee of the state central committee. W. H. Mc Bride of Osborne county,who had the office under Governor Humphrey, and was allowed to resign, is also said to have aspirat ions, although all indications point to Web Wilder, as the man who will have the strongest in fluence with Major Morrill. G. Biakely, actuary of the Kansas Mutual Life Insurance association, was at one time an applicant fur the appoint ment as superintendent of insurance, and it is said his name will Le considered by Major Merrill before r-'iperinteudeut Snider's successor is name 1. Slute Oil I inpeet or. L. S, C'ruin of Labette county. William Higgins of Stiawjsa county. W. W. Smith of Shawiiei county. J. X. Harrison of i" rat. Kim county. The job which is considered the very best in th.; stare is that of coal oil in spector. The holder of this otliee gets his $2,500 and extra pay in fees. Since the opening up of th3 Kansas oil fields the oil inspector's fees amount to more th.au the salary of any state officer. There is little work aud considerable money in the position. L. S. Cruui of Oswego, one of the ad visory committee of live of the state central committee, is ualerstood to be pulling for the oil inspectorship, and if William Higgins is not appointed war den of the penitentiary, he will be satis tied with this position. "Curly" Harri son of Ottawa, the mau who so cleverly managed the congressional campaign in the Second distr.ct for Judge O. L. Mil ler, is said to have his eye on the oil in spectorship, and W. W". Smith, who was once a deputy inspector, would not re fuse the appointment if it fihould be ollered to him. Itoarrt of I'ublic "Works. J. J. Cox of Douglas county. D. W. Mulvane of Shawi.ee county. Johu H. Smith of Ctierokee county. Sol Miller of Doniphan county. J. S. Emery of Douglas county. The salary attached to the places on the board of public works is not large, but they are desirable, especially to con tractors, and J. J. Cox, of the campaign committee, is said to be slated for a posi tion on this board. Dave W. Mulvane of Topeka is said to be favorably considered as a likely suc cessor to R B. Kepley, his business part near, the present Democratic member. The three members of the old board. Cap tain John II. Smith of Columbus, Sol Miller of the Troy Chief and Judge J. S. Emery of Lawrence, the stalwart Demo crat, are said to have anxious eyes on their old places. The salarv of a mem ber of this board is only $1,010 a year. State Architect. J. G. Haskell of Douglas county. Tna state architect is elected by tha board of public works and he draws a salary of $2,500 and $1.0ou is allowed for an assistant architect. J. G.

Mary E. Lease. Ex-State Senator John Schilling has been a steadfast friend of Major Morrill, aud a place on the board of charities would bo satisfactory to him. Phil Kelly of White Cloud, has been one of the backers of Cnairman Leland in the campaign, and his eyes are cast towards a place on this board. L. S. logger, a Hutchinson business man, has been suggested for one of the live places, as has ulso S. S. Benedict of Fredonia, who was last week elected to the legisla ture from Wilson county. J. II. Harris of Ottawa, who was an intimate friend of A. T. Sharpe, when he was a member of the board; A. J. Harwi, an Atchison busi ness man, who sells largo quantities of merchandise to the state; G. -U. Stratton of Clay county, who is one of the stal wart Republicans who must be cared for; Captain J. S. .McDowell of Smith Center, who did not get the nomination for sec retary of state; J. S. Postlevvaite, one of the lighters from Jewell couuty; J. li. BesacK, editor of the Washington Regis ter, who led the tight in defense of Major Morrill in the alleged Wash ington and Marshall county land deals; Judge John Guthrie and Mrs. S. A. Thurston of Topeka have all been men tioned in this connection. W. Wr. Miller of Osage City, who was on the last Re publican board, and Editor Rant Mur i.jck of the Eldorado Republican com plete the list of those most talked about. There are only five members to be ap pointed and some one must be disap pointed.

William Martindale, who once served outhi3 board, is said to be looking that j way again. Editor Ed. P. Greer of the i Wiulield Courier, is talked of for a place on the board to pay him for unearthing the Pilcher scandal. Perry Hutchison I of Marysviile must have something and I he is talked of along with Harry E. i Richter of Council Grove, who was not renominated this year for the legislature, i Ed. B. Jones of Holton, ex-postmaster of that town, is also said to be leaning to wards this board. State .Mine Inspector. George Fiuley of Shawnee county. Johu T. Stewart of Cherokee county. The state mine inspector is appointed for a term of two years and the inspector gets a salary of $2,U0O. George Finley once resigned this job. but is said to be willing to take it again and Johu T.

Keeuan Hurst of Chautauqua county. G. W. Crumley of Lyon county. B?n Clover of Cowley county. There are three members of this board to be appointed and they get S5 a day when actually employed. During the last two years thare have been enough 'iexas fever and Spanish fever scares, to keep these commissioners traveling most of tha time. Charles Collins of Hutchinson, John T. White of Ada and Keeuan Hurst of Sedan were members of the old Repub lican board and they are said to want to go back. G. W. Crumley and Ben Clover, who flopped from the Populists are said to want their reward by places on this board. There is a grand rush for the jobs ia the 3tate house as well as on the various boards. PrlTHte Secretary to the Governor. Ewing Herbert of Brow x couuty. W. II. Ward of Shawnee county. James Smith of Shawnee county. J. L. Bristow of Saline county. James S. Baker of Brown county. The governor's private secretary gets $2,00U a year, but the position is one of the most responsible in the state. The story comes from Hiawatha that Ewing Herbert has been selected for this position, but among others who are talked about to stand between Governor Morrill and the public are Capt. W. II. Ward, who held that position under Governor St. John; James Smith, who was private secretary to Governors Mar tin and Humphrey and James a Baker, M ajor Morrill's son-in-law, who is a son of Congressman Baker of Xew York and has quite an insight into politics himself.

Downing of Ellis county. O. S. McDowell of Cherokee county. The salary attached to the office of executive clerk is $1203 a year and it ia the easiest job to fill in the atate house. It has been ireuerally conceded this place should go to some newspaper man who should act as the governor's adver tising agent (that is, to see that the gov ernor s trivial mistakes do not get into the opposition papers). J. Ware Butter field of Topeka who writes for eastern papers; J. E. Junkin of the Sterling Bul letin; Ewing Herbert of the Brown county World and Dell Valentino have been mentioned. John Schilling, jr., who worked for the state ceutral com mittee during the campaign. C. E. Gault, secretary of the Republican state league, who helped to increase the majority in Shawnee couuty; O. S. McDowell who had the job under Governor Martin and Jack Downing of Hays City have all been mentioned.

Bert Tuttle of Clay county. E. D. McKeover of Shawnee county. The assistant attorney general must be a man who can write as good opinions as those once furnished by Xoah Allen, but he must sign the name of his chief and not his own; for this service ho will get $1,000 a year. Tom Doran, who was deputy revenue collector under Chairman C. Leland when Harrison was president, is said to be elated here, and P. L. Soper would be glad to come back from Oklahoma and live in Topeka if this opening should j come his way. E. D. McKeever, who j is now a law partner of Lieut.-Goveruor Troutman, has been mentioned as a possibility, but Mr. F. B. Dawes, the attorney general elect, lives at Clay Center, aud he has a personal friend up there by the name of Bert Tuttle who may slide into this fat place. j Adjutant tieiieral. Col. J. W. F. Hughes, of Shawnee founty. i W. P. Campbell, of Sedgwick county, t v AR. Greene, of Douglas county. j P. 1L Coney, of Shawnee county. Henry Booth, of Pawnee couuty. j Ira F.

Lewis Hanback of Wyandotte county. H. E. Wentworth of Shawnee county. The assistant adjutant general draws $900 a year, but it is a job that is not hard to fill. W. II. Hornaday, with a G. A. R. re cord, who writes letters to the country newspapers signed Brunstane, is said to bo slated for this job, but Lew Hanback, who had the place under Governor Humphrey, would like to come back to Topena, and Captain H. E. Wentworth, who was a sixteen year old captain during the war, has been talked about as a man who could draw the salary. Assistant State Treasurer. George M. Seward of Shawnee. W. H. Xelson of Smith couuty. Sam M. Johnson of Doniphan county. The assistant state treasurer receives $1,700 a year for his services and George Seward the present assistant is a Repub lican who was in the oliice under the last Republican administration and became assistant by raising a part of Treasurer Biddle's bond. Mr. Seward may still hold the job if J. R. Burton's influence with Slate Treas urer Atherton is as strong as it is sup posed to be. Mr. Atherton is said to be favorable to the Burton senatorial boom. Billy Xelson of tne Smith County Pio neer, who was assistant under S. G. Stover, is talked about again but Sam Johnson of Troy, has a string which may land him in that part of the west wing of the statehouse. Xight Guard at Treasurer's Oflice. A W. Hopkins, Topeka. Albert Hopkins, who was street com missioner of Topeka when Dr. D. C. Jones' was mayor, wants to draw the $900 as night guard at the treasurer's office. Assistant State Auditor. S.

Brown of Shawnee county. Sol. G. Watkins of Shawnee county. S. W. Winn of Shawnee couuty. W. L Jamison of Shawnee county. John Smith of Wyandotte county. The auditor's office is conceded to be the place where the colored wing of the party receives its reward and already there are five or six colored men men tioned as wanting places under Auditor Cole. B. EL Bruce of Leavenworth, the colored school teacher, has an anchor to windward and John M. Brown was once in that oflice and he now wants to go back. SoL G. Watkins of Topeka was not elected justice of the peace last spring, and. hm would be satisfied with a clerkship i.i this office, as would S. W. Winn and W. I. Jamison of Topeka and a large colored man by the name of John Smith, who lives in Kansas City, Kan. Assistant State Superintendent. J. C. Davis of Chase county. Frank Stout of Geary couuty. The assistant state superintendent will get $1,900 and it is said that J. C. Davis, of Cottouwood Falls, who was the candi date for superintendent two years ago, is pulling for the place as assistant. Frank Stout, who was Geo. W. Win an's assistant, is also talked of, but-he has been doing business in Kansas City, and some objection may be made that he is a non-resident. In addition to those mentioned there are jobs almost without number iu the penitentiary and in the various state in stitutions, where the more humble mem bers of the party will be rewarded, and for which there are as many applicants, proportionately. SUJINEll SCHOOL BUKXS. The Interior Destroyed and the AVall May lie I'seiess. Sumner school, located on the north east corner of Fourth street and West ern avenue was almost totally destroyed by lire last evening, and many of the school children stood about and danced as the tire department put the finishing but damp touches to the wrecked build ing. Their joy is doomed to a dampen ing too, for school will be reopened at Dougias school tomorrow. The first person to discover the fire was the colored janitor William Pago, tvho was sweeping the second story. Ho paid no attention to the strong odor of bmoke because the furnace often smoked but it finally became so strong that he left his work to see if all was right. When he opene.l the door he was met by a cloud of smoke aud fire that staggered him. The fire had almost stopped the passage at the stairway, but the janitor took his chances aud made the ground in safety, except that his left hand was painfullv burned. I The janitor turned in the alarm at box 30, two blocks away, at 5:0. By the time the firemen arrived the lire had control of the roof, aud as a strong wind was blowing from the north, showering the neighborhood with sparks and em bers, a second alarm was sent in, which summoned the remainder of the fire de partment. It was needed, for a house across the street and Scott Brothers' ice cream factory just east of the school, both caught fire but were quickly saved. The school building was past saving, and the only thing for the firemen to do, aside from protecting the neighbors, was to keep three large streams of water playing on the interior. Chairman T. A. Beck of the building committee of the board of education was on the ground during tho fire. Ho says tho loss on the building is complete. Although the walls are standing he thinks they are so damaged that they will have to come down. The building cost about t-S.OJO ten years ago, and the additional loss on furniture and school books and supplies will make the total loss $10,000, with insurance not to exceed $2,500. mere is notning definitely Known re garding the cause of the fire. The jani tor heart! a lot ot boys piayiug iu tho lower hallway a short time before the fire, and heard them scamper through the yard, and there is a vague suspicion that the cause was incendiary. A more plausible and acceptable theory in that it started from the heating apparatus in the basement, which is the source of nearly all fires in school buildings. The most fortunate thing about the fire was that it did not occur an hour before. AVith both exits closed by tire there would have been a panic among the children that would havs been a black day in Topeka's history. The vacation of Sumner school pupils is only for one day. Superintendent Davidson has issued this card: To the 1'atrons of .Sumner School: The Sumner school building was so completely destroyed by the fire yester day evening that its occupancy is beyond question, and its immediate repair is an impossibility. The building committee of the board of education direct me to say that the Douglas school building shall be occupied instead. It is therefore directed that all chil dren who Jiave been enrolled at the Sumner school report on Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock at the Douglas school, located on the east side of Polk street, between Third and Fourth streets. W. M. Davihson, Superintendent of Schools. liUDD'S PLURALITY SH3I. From the Upturns Already IteceiveI It Is Only 1078. Sax Francisco, Xov. 111. There has been no marked change in tho guberna torial contest in California in the past twenty-four hours. Returns have now been received from 2,115 precincts in the state in a total of 2,274 precincts, and the result shows: Budd, Democrat, 109,091; Estee, Republican, 10S.012. Budd's plu rality 1,078. There are still 1S5 precincts to hear from, and also the official canvass of 47 counties. The official returns have been received from ten counties in the state, and the gains of the two candi- dates about tally, being 10 votes in Es- tee s favor. The figures given above allow a plu rality for Budd in this city of 11,J50, as that seems to be the most accurate figure which can be obtained until a more full canvass is concluded G0VER3IEXT ELEVATORS. Kussta "Will Erect Them Along The Gov ernment Itailroaris. Washington, Xov. 13, United States Consul Stephan, at Annaberg, reports to the department of state that the Russian government is contemplating the erec tion of grain elevators along the govern ment railroads. For the first, such ele vators will be built only at stations from which more than 200.0JO poods (a pood equals 36.11 pounds) are shipped, leaving the stations with less than that amount as a field for private enterprise. Each elevator ia to have a capacity of forty per cent of the average quantity of wheat shipped annually. Iu this way the farmers will be able to place a total of 79,000,000 poods of grain in store.

STATE JOTTRXAL, TUESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 13. 1894. C0MF0RTF0R LABOR. Report of rullrr an Strike Com mission is Made Public. "Workmen Have a Right to Com bine as Well as Others. MANAGERS A HE SCOKED Establishment of a Permanent Commission Recommended. Chicago, Nov. 13. The United States government report on the great railway strike in connection with the Pullman trouble was made public yesterday. The report, which is signed by the federal labor com missioner, Carroll I. Wright, and his fallow investigators. John I). Kernan, of Xew York, and Nicholas B. Worth ington, of Illinois, is addressed to President Cleveland and abounds in passages which will attract wide at tention, particularly the portion referring- to the now famous General Managers' association, the organiza tion of high railway omeials that en compassed the merr orable defeat of the American Pailway union. The report says ths capitalization of the twenty-four railroads directly represented in the General Managers association was S- IC S, 552, 617. The number of employes was 221iOJ7. The commission continues: 'l hm 4xnerktl Managers Association. "This voluntary unincorporated as sociation wjt formed in lSStS. In its constitution the object of the associa tion ia stated to be 'the consideration of problem. of management arising from the operation of railroads terminating- or centericg- at Chicago.' 'It further provides that 'all funds needed snail ba raised by assessment divided equally among- tne members. There are no limitations as to 'con sideration of probh ms of funds,' ex cept the will of the nanajers and tho resources of the railroad corporations. "Until Jur e, 1S64, the association's possibilit.es as a strike fighter and wage arbiter lay rat ier dormant. Its roads fixad a "Chicago scale' for switchmen, covering" all lines at Chi cago. In March, ls'Ji the switchmen demanded more pay from ea'i road. The association concluded that they were paid enough if anythiLj, too much. The roads so informed the. men. The Switchmen's mutual aid association of iNorth America wrota to Mr. St. John, as chairman, acqui escing. He. as chairman of the Gen eral Managers' association, concluded his reply as follows: 'The associa tion approves the course taken by your bo ty ami desiros to deal fairly with all employes, and believes that our switchmen are receiving- due con sideration. "This seems to show," the report says, "that employes- u pon association roads are treated as uqJ.t subjection to the General Managers' association," and the report at't.-r detailing- tha action of the association in establishing- a-rencies and employing- men, adds: "This was the fcrst tiino when men upon each line were broug-ht sharply face to face 'viththe fact that in questions as to wara, rules, etc., each line was supported by twenty four combined railroads. This asso ciation likew ise prepared for its use elaborate schedules of the wag-es paid upon the entire line of its twenty four members. Trie proposed object of these schedules was to let each road know what other roads paid. Finding- that the men upon some lines tirged increases to correspond with wages paid elsewhere, a committee of the associate n piepared and pre sented a uniform schedule for all membership roads. It was deemed wise not to act neon tho report. It was distributed to members in November, 1SJ3. This distribution aione enabled the report to be used with efSciency as an "equalizer.' As th result during 3S93 it being then well understood that as to wijes, eta it was an inci dent of the General Managers' asso ciation to 'assist" each road in case of trouble over such matters, one form of assistance being- for the association to seavira men enoujrh. throug-h its agencies to take the places of all strikers redactions were here and there made on the different roads, the tendency and effort spparently being- to equalize the ps on all lines. "It is admitted thKt the action of the association has great weight with outside lines, and thus tends to estab lish one uniform scale throu g hout the country. The further single step of admitting- lines not running- into Chi ca jo to membership would certainly list.' the effect of combining all rail roads m wage center tions against all employes thereon. HfitioD h to X$al Authority. "The commission questions wheth er any leal authority, statutory or otherwise, can be faund to justify tome of the features of the associa tion which have com) to light in this investigation. If we resrard its prac tical workings rathar than its pro fessions as e pressed in its constitu tion tha General Manager's associa tion has no more stai.diag in law than the old trunk line pool. It cannot corpoiate because railroad charters do not authorize roars to form corpo rations or associations, to til rates for services aud wages, tor to force their aceeptance, nor to battle with strik ers. It is usurpation of power not granted. If such an association ia necessary from a business or econ ooaia standpoint the right to form and maintain it must coma from the state that granted. Itv. charter. BllraHd tlie Ennplt or Calona. "It should be note t that, until the railroads tet tho example, a great union of railroad employes was never attempted. The nniots had not g-one beyond enlisting the men upon differ ent bystems ia separata trade og-ani-zations. These ne utralize and check each other to some sit-ent, and have Ita aucli fcuam or ct aoity for food or evil as is possible tinder the uni versal combination idea inaugurated by the railroads and followed by the American Railway Union. The re fusal of the General Managers' Asso ciation to recognize and deal with such a combination of lal or as tha American Railway Union seems arro gant and absurd when we consider it standing- before the law, its assump tion and its past and obviously con templated future action." Til t.reat FnllmB Strike. Taking- up the subject of the Pull man Palace Car Company, the report sajs: "Tikis is a corporation organized in 1S67, with a capital stock of SI.CjO. 000. It has grown until its present paid up capital is 33,000,000. Its prosperity has enabled the company for over twenty years to pay two per cent quarterly dividends, and, in addition, to lay up a surplus of nearly -'3,000,-000 of undivided protits." Speaking- of the town of Pullman, of which the report states the com pany is owner and landlord, the coaa mission says: tha Gospel Come Blgh at Far man. "The principal church and its par sonage are very attractive structures, but are not often occupied because the rental required is higher than any church society is willing- to pay to obtain gospel privileges to be secured thereby. In the arcale is a tasteful library of books, carefully selected and cared for by the com pany. Three dollars par year is charged for its use, and as many as 250 persons a year out of from. 4,000 to 5,000 employes and residents have at times, availed themself of its op portunities. It is possible that the air of business strictly maintained there, as elsewhere, and their ex clusion from any part in its manage ment, prevent more universal and grateful acceptance of its advantage by employes. As a rule, people, even when employes, prefer independence to paternalism in such matters. "Some witnesses swear that at times for the work done in two weeks they received in checks from four cents to SI over ahd above their rent. The company has Dot produce;! its checks in rebuttal. During ail of this reduction and its attendant sult'eriug none of the salaries of the o.lieers, managers or superintendents were reduced. Reductions in these would not have been so severely felt, would have shown good faith, would have relieved the harshness of the sitra tion an 1 would have evinced genuine F.ympathy with labor in the disasters of the times. 1 ho C'ompinx'' Selflshne. "In its statements to the public which are in evidence, the company represents that its object in all it did was to continue operations for the benefit of its workmen and of trades people in and about Pullman, and to save the publio from annoyance of uninterrupted travel. The commis sion thinks that the evidence shows that it sought to keep ruuniag- main ly for its own benefit as manufac turer; that its plant might not, rust; that its competitors might not in vade its territory. If we exclude th.j esthetic and sanitary- features at Pullman, the rents there are from twenty to twenty-live pr cent higher than rents in Chicago or surroi: n ting towns for similar accommodations. The esthetic features are admired by visitors, but have little money value to the employes, especially when they lack bread. Kmployes DeiuaDd Not Justifiable. "The demand of the employes for the wages of June 1s'j3, was clearly unjustifiable. The business of May, 1S04, could not pay the wages of June, l&y3. Reduction was carried to excess, but the company was hardlt- more at fault therein than were the employes in insisting upon the wages of June, 1893. There was little discussion as to rents, the company maiuta.nirig that its rents h:id nothing to do with its wages and that its revenues from its tenants was no greater than it ought to receive. "The company had a lejal right to take this position, but as between man and man the demand for some rent reduction was fair and reasona ble under all the circumstances. Some slight concession in this regard would probably have averted the strike, provided the promise not to discharge men who served upon the co iuaittee had been more strictly regarded. The strike occurred on May 11 and from that time until the soldiers went to Pullman, about July 4. 300 strikers were placed about the company's property, professedly to guard it from destruction or interference. Ike Illume tor the Strike Flared. "The policy." tha report says, "of both the Pullman company ari l the. Railway Managers' a-soeiat ion. iu reference to the appl ica tions to arbi trate, closed the dooi to all attempts at conciliation and settlement of dif ferences. The commission is im pressed with the belief, by the evi dence and by the attendant circum stances as disclosed, that a clii'.'erent policy would have prevented the loss of life and great loss of property and wages occasioned by the str.ke."' The report deeiares the arr.val of troops at Chicago was opporture and says "that policemen sympathized with strikers rather than witii the corporations cannot be doubte 1, nor would it be surprising to find the same sentiment rife among the mili tary. These forcis are largely re cruited from the laboring classes. Indeed, the danger is growing- that in strike wars between corporations and employes, military duty will ulti mately have to be done by ethers than volunteers from iator ruak. "United States deputy marshals to the number of 3,'jO'J were selected by and appointed at the request of the General Managers' association and of its railroad;,. They were artaed and paid by the railroads and acted in the double capacity of railroad employes and United States officers. "While oi crating the railroads they assumed and exercised unrestricted United States authority when so ordered by their employers, or whenever they re garded it as necessary. Th -y were not under the direct control of aay government official while exereis'Dir authority. This is placing- oflicers of the government under control of a combination of railroads. It is a bai precedent, that might well lead to se rious consequences. "There is no evidence before the 1 commission that the officers of the American railway union at any time participated in or advised intimida tion, violence or destruction of prop. rty. "From the testimony it is fair to conclude that strikers were concerned in the outrages against the law and order, although the number was un doubtedly small, as compared with the whole number out." In conclusion the report says: "Since nations have grown to the wisdom of avoiding disputes by con ciliation, and even of settling them by arbitration, why should capital and labor in their eependence upon each other persist in cutting each other's throats as a settlement of dif ferences? Official reports show that much progress has been mpde in the more sane direction of conciliation and arbitration even in America. Abroad they are in advance of us in this policy. The commission reviews at length and comments on the evidence and recommends that a permanent com mission be appointed to hereafter deal with labor difficulties. "The commission would suggest the consideration by thj states of the adoption of some system of concilia tion I ke that, for instance, in Massa chusetts. That system might be reinforced by additional provisions, giving the board of arbitration more power to investigate all btrittes, whether requested to do so or not, and the question might be considered as to giving labor organizations a standing before the law, as heretofore suggested for national trades unions. "Contracts requiring men not to join labor organizations or to leave them as conditions of employment should be made illegal, as is already done in some of our states. "The commission urges employers to recognizj labor organizations; that such organizations be dealt with through representatives, with special reference to couciliation and arbitra tion when difficulties are threatened or arise. It is satisfied that employ ers should come in closer touch with labor and should recognize that while the interests of capital and labor are not identical they are reciprocative. "'The eomraision is satisfied that if employers everywhere will endeavor to act in concert with labor; that if, when wages can be raised under economic conditions, th -y be raised voluntarily, and that when there are reductions reasons be given for the reduetion much friction can be avoided. It is also satisfied that if employers will consider employes as thoroughly essential to industrial success as capita, and thus take labor into consultation at proper times, much of the severity of strikes cau be tempered and their number reduced." Like Tennvson's "Brook" the increase of s;des of Dr. Price's Baking Powder promises to "go on forever." SCHAEFEil GETS THE FIRST lie Wius the pVning Oaraa tar Itannlag It Out in the Seventh Inning;.

Sedalia, Mo., Nov. 13. The public school building at Windsor, Mo., was totally destroyed by fire at 10 o'clock yesterday morning. It was an eiyht room brick structure, valued at 520,000 and was insured for 5 000. The build ing was filled with 500 pupils at the time, many of whom had narrow escapes. The fire started from the furnace in the basement and was well under headway before discovered. The children were compelled to abandon all their wraps in the cloak rooms as well as their books. Walter Finks, a teacher, was com pelled to jump from a second story window an I was badly injured. May j liarnaman, a 13-year-old girl, ran into the burning building to secure her books. She was overcome with smoke 1 and fell to the floor. One of the teachers rescued her. SHOT FROMHIS HORSE Masked. Men Rob a Bank at Sylvan Grove, Kan. Three of Them Hold Up the Cashier at Xoon.

Dis patches from Salina and Ellsworth, Kan., tell of a daylight bank robbery at Sylvan Grove, a little town on a branch of the Union Pacific road near Hutchinson, and forty miles from Salina, that is without parallel for boldness and unique features. According to the Salina story, just at noon, and while very few people were on the street, three men with masked faces and armed with Win chesters, rode rapidly up the main street and halted in front of the City bank. All dismounted, and while one of the men went inside the other two remained guard. Covering the cashier, who was alone in the bank, the rob ber demanded what money there was, and said he wanted it quick. The money came forthwith and the bandit ran out into the street and joined his comrades. While ia the act of mounting the j robbers were fired upon by the casu- j ier. One of the bullets lodged in the i back of the nearest outlaw. Although I badly wounded he managed to mount and all three rode rapidly away. Loss of blood soon exhauste 1 the wounded man, and after ridiug a mile he fell to the ground in a dying j condition. The other two men real- j izing that exposure would follow if the wounded member of the gang was captured, concluded to make short work of him, and both fired a bullet, into his body, killing him in stantly. Leaving him in the road where he had fallen they rode rapidly away. Pursuing parties started from Syl van Grove shortly after the raid, and it is thought the gang was headed for a rendezvous in the nortiiorn part of Russell county. The amount of money taken could not be learned. 0 v Carried by ny house In the Btate. No house in the state carries as fine goods, and no house carries a line as cheap as we have on our floors today.

It Took Them Just Fifteen Minutes to Rob 'A'riseo i ram Near Monett. Monktt, Mo., Nov. 13. Tha St. Louis and San Francisco train No. 1, due here at 7:50 p. m. was held up and the express car robbed three miles east of this city at 7:30 o'clock last evening. Your correspondent was a passenger on the train and an eye witness to the bold and success ful robbery, which was committed in a deep and lonely cut. At Verona two masked men boarded the tender of the engine and con cealed themselves tiutil the heavy grade and deep cut was reached. Then they sprang from their hiding place, covered the engineer and fire man with Winchesters, and command ed them to stop the train. Tne com mand was promptly obeyed. Climbing over the tender into the cab the bandits marched the engineer and fireman to the baggage car and com manded them to open the door. Messenger Chapman, by this time aware of the robbery, refused to com ply, when in a ioud tone of voice, the bandits, threatened to blow up the car with dynamite, and, with true de termination and in regular Bill Cook style, produced a stick of dynamite and were just in the act of putting it to use when Engineer Stevenson called to the messenger and implored him to open the door, which was done. The bandits entered the car, plun dered it and, in full view of the pas sengers, clambered up the hill and made their escape. It was a success fully planned hold-up, which required just fitteen minutes. When the train came to a sudden 6top the clear report from a Win chester rang out upon the air, and every passenger on the train knew what it meant. A second later four bandits who wore red bandana hand kerchiefs over their faces joined the comrades at the express car, and their job was b gun. "No shoot. ng goes." exclaimed the leader. "Ilea Is back, there, heads back, there," he contin ued, and those who dared t look out of the car window obeyed without a second warning. C n luctor Wight man hastily passed througn the train aud warned the passenyers to c jnctai their valuables. Women and chil dren were panic stricken, an 1 men hastily concealed watches and money. Passengers took refuge under seats, beh nd doors and soma retire 1 to the Pullruan sleepers to the rear of the train. After fifteen minutes of terrible suspense at the muzzle of a gun the engineer and fireman were marched to the cab of the engine and com manded to back the train a quarter of a mile from the scene of the rob bery. A second report from a Win chester was a sienal for the engineer to pull out his train and the robbery was at an end. Messenyer Chapman succeeded in hiding all the money save $200 in currency, which he handed over to the robbers. Two of the gang climbed the steep hillside and joined the gang in waiting in the woods. As they ascended the rocky hillside the gleaming- barrels of their guns were plainly visible to the terrorized pas teagers. The train pulled to Monett twenty minutes late and the news spread like wildfire. A posse was formed, but for want of a leader failed to purfne the brndits, who are supposed to be none other than Bill Cook's Bttoiious gang. DESCRIPTION. FK "w.

Force Pill to Get Fair Elections Suggested bv One. Wostcomekt, Ala., Xov. 13. At 7 o'clock last night the Koib conveutioa asserubled and while awaiting1 the report of the committee on resolutions, aa ex tended and heated wrangle arose over the question of rechristening the party, which in a partial report from the special committee in the afternoon had been dubbed the People's and Jeffersoniau party. The result of the evening' argu ment was a wiping out of the Jeirerson iau party and the convention of JelTersons and Populists resolved themselves into the National People's Party. It was after 9 o'clock when Chairman W. II. Skagg, of the committee on reso lutions, was yielded the stage and began the reading of quite a voluminous re port, which began by congratulating the people of Alabama on the recent Repub lican victories in other states, aud then took up the subject of alleged Oallot box stutling: The report stated that the committee had at hand ample proof of all their allegations of fraud in that Kolb and his ticket were elected last August and had been counted out. At this juncture Dr. Crow of Perry county, in an excited manner, paced up and down the theater aisle and declared that he should be seated even if blood shed were necessary, and that on De cember 1, the people (Populists and lie publicans) should meet at Montgomery and that if the state militia interfered with them there would be enough on hand to handle them. These revolutionary sentiments were backed up in stout talks by a number of men until Skagga finally re sumed the reading of the report which went on to say that the evidence was at hand to proe the fraudulent elec tion of Governor-elect Oates, and that if the legislature did not right the wrong, the federal congress would be called up on and a force bill demanded if neces sary. After reading the resolutions, Skaggs spoke for two hours. Conservative men were simply drowned out by the incen diary speakers who were applauded to the echo; the more conservative were listened to in aileuce. The convention adjourned sine die after adopting the re port. Not a suggestion of a double bar rel legislature or government is con tained in the resolutions. T II R E AT EN EI) L Y N CUING. A Mob Gathers to Hang Convic(el Mur derers of the Mayor of lvinley. Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 13. A special to the Star from Larned, Kansas, says: Harvey aud Arnold, the murderers of Mayor Marsh of Kinsley, were taken before Judge Vandivert this morning at S o'clock, where they pleaded guilty to the charge of murder in the first degree. The sentence imposed by Judge Vandi vert was imprisonment in the state peni tentiary until such time as the governor shall decide that they shall be handed. The boys were taken on the 0 o'clock train for Leavenworth by Sheriff Heath, but not until a mob had gathered and threatened lynching. Judge Vandivert convened court an hour before tha regu lar time in order to frustrate the would be lynchers. The boys are 17 aud IS years old. The murder of Mayor Marsh was com mitted on the night of October 22. As he was returning home at night he was accosted by two men, who ordered him to hold up his hands. Thinking it, a joke at lirst, he grabbed at the pistol of one of them, lie was then shot in the abdo men by one of the robbers, who made their escape. Marsh died of his wound the next day. Two men who had registered at the Adams hotel that evening as Carl Slater aud Wm. Dexter of Kingiisher, Ok., were suspected and the sheriffs of neighbor ing counties immediately started ia pur suit They were captured in the south western part of the state and brought to trial with the above result.

It Will Trobably lie Issued To-morrow or TLarsduy. Washington, Nov. 13. There is no longer any doubt that an issue of bonds Las been definitely decided upon and it can be stated on authority that the circu lar asking for bids will be issued during the present week and probably to-morrow or Thursday. It is fully realized that the gold re serve has now reached a point where it could be wiped out by a few heavy ship ments and it is thought to be the part of of wisdom not to wait until the gold in the treasury is practically exhausted before making an effort to recoup it No upset price will be set but it is con fidently expected that a larger amount will be realized from the bonds than from the last issue. The circular calling for the bond issue will be given out this evening. It will call for bids for $50,0 O.U jU of 5 per cents and the bonds will ba dated February 1 to agree with the last issue. The bids will be opened November 24. At 2:4J p. in. Secretary Carlisle re turned to the treasury department from the White House, where, since U40 ad journment of the cabinet meeting, he had been in conference with the presi dent and Secretary Gresham, presuma bly on the subject of the forthcoming bond issue. The secretary immediately sent for his stenographer and denied himself to all callers and refused to say anything regardiug the matter. It is believed that he is preparing a circular to be made public late today or tomor row. New York, Nov. 13. At the informal meeting of New York bankers held this afternoon tile question of "The bond is sue" was discussed. One of the gentle men who was present said that it was de cided, that in the case of an issue the New York banks would, as heretofore, recpond to the request of the government and help it in every possible way. VACATION FO!l 1'AIIKIIU IIST His Chureli TliinUs lie Has Kanteil a Itest aud 00'ers Him one. New Yokk, Nov. 13. The session of the Madison Square Presbyterian church has decided to give the Iiev. Dr. C. 11. Parkhurat a vacation from his duties as pastor until Jan. 1. The church officers say that if ever rest was earned Dr. Parkhurst has earned this one. It is not known, however, whether Dr. Parkhurst will accept the offer of the session or not. He Jias al ways expressed the feeling that the church year was too sTiort at best and he may be unwilling to cut it shorter, not withstanding the evident fact that he needs the vacation. On the next evening, Nov. 27, a dinner in his honor will be given under the au spices of the officers of the city vigilance league. Covers will be laid for 500 guests at this dinner, which will be on a considerably larger scale than tha one giveu last spring at the St Dennis hotel. In case Dr. Parkhurst should accept the olfer of a vacation made by the church session, his pulpit will probably be tilled part of the time by well known ministers of the city and part of the time by the llev.

The statement authorized by the parade committee that the procession is to move at 7 o'clock this evening is a foolish piece of business. The stores, shoos and offices do not close until 0; people must go home to their evening meal, and they can't possibly do it and return by 7. If the procession managers want to deprive two-thirds of the people of Topeka from seeing the march, they will move at 7. If they want to please everybody they will wait until 8. It is aaid that the "7 o clock notice" is given out to make the negligent partlc: pttnts in the parade "hurry up;" but this 13 no reason why 30,000 people should be put to untold inconvenience and discomfort by being notilied that they must get down town by 7 o'clock. Alas the poor dyspeptics! What trials they have! They would have uone at all if they would eat food cooked with Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder. STRANGERS ARRIVING. Many Thousand i'rom Outside Kxpected On I.ate Train. The noon trains today brought many people who will participate in the rati lication tonight.

Tue special from Lawrence will arrive on the Santa Fe at 7:15 and 1,0U0 people are expected on this train. At about the same hour the special from Manhattan will arrive bringing a great many Re publicans. The roads have sold excursion tickets to the wsst line of the state and the buf falo grass counties will be well repre sented. People are already here from Logan.

It looks now as though Wichita would not be represented at the New Orleans north and south grain and trade congress to be held this month. Last spring this congress met in Wichita and took steps looking toward the commencement of a good traffic be tween the midlle west and north. Four members of the Wichita board of trade expected to bo present at the New Orleans meeting this mouth and sup posed that the Missouri Paeihc, the only direct route, would furnish thatu trans portation, as the success of the meeting would bring them good results. Hut this road now refuses to furnish this trans portation, and tho committee say that they are not financially able to bear tho expense of a trip to this southern city, and therefore it is probable that so far as Wichita is concerned there will be no representation at the meeting. Bl'FFALO HILL'S IilllXII 1'LACK lit' HNS The Ohl House "Where the Scout Wm Horn is O'oiihu meI. Atchison, Nov. 13. Tho old house where "Buffalo Bill" was born and rear ed, which was located near Kickapoo, cautrht, on tire, and has burned to the ground. All the old time farmers living near south of Atchison remember Will Cody, and the incident which led to his romantic career as a scout, in which ca pacity he became famous. His' father, who was a free state mm, made a speech in a pro-slavery crowd in Kickapoo dur ing the time of the war, and was shot and killed. From that time his son, who was a mere boy, went on the plains to lind the man who did the shooting. lie got a job killing buffalo, and furn ishing the meat to Goddard Bros., hotel keepers at Kllsworth, Kas. He did not kill any great number of buffalo, but merely kept the hotel supplied with buffalo meat. The job was such an odd one that he became known as Buffalo Bill, aud this was re dly and truly how he was given this name. The place where the Cody family lived is now owned by Will Lacaiile, who is quite well known in Atchison. Do you have trouble with your baking? You have yourself to blame.

The body of a dead man was found hanging on a grape vine along the Walnut river, twelve miles below the city, the body was hanging by one foot and one arm, head down. In the pockets of the clothing were found two notes which established the identity of tho man, who was John Partridge, age 24, and who lived near Tisdale, six miles east of this city. About September 1 he left his home in a light wagon, driving two horses. The supposition is that he undertook to cross the river when it was up and when he was in a drunken condition, missed tho ford and wai drowned. Tho wagon was found a half mile below where the body was found and the horses are still at large. There were no marks of violence on the body that would indicate foul play. The bodv was badly decomposed aud could only be handled by the use of a stretcher, the head falling oil when be ing put in the cotlin. The coroner's jury's verdict was "accidental drowning.'"

Murdock, general ticket agent for the Atchison, Topeka Santa Fe, in this city, has been tendered and accepted a po-dtion that considerably advances him in the rail road busiuess. Last week Mr. Murdock received a letter from H. It Nickersou, formerly a division superintendent on the Santa Fe, at present superintendent of the Mexican Central, offering him the position of as sistant general passenger agent of tho Mexican Central, with headquarters at Mexico City.

Dlxshohe, the '-Bald Hornet of the Xeo-ho." was defeitel. The tail has gone with the hide. Jt FF IIld-on seems to Lave been the shrewdest politician in the Populist party. Ho had his ear to the graund and trot a 3ea in it. Judge McKay, of Attica, tha nian of whom it was said, ho d.dn't "know no law" has again been elected judge of his district, During his t.rst four years oq the bench he is said to have practically nullified th9 rnortzaga foreclosure law and yet the peoplo vote for hirn. It seems that julge mutt be either for the people or for the corporations. If he h;id been for the latter aa probably would not have been re-elected. Is there no middle ground for a jtde? The annual report of the postal de partment of the government has just been submitted to tie president. It shows that the revenues of the depart ment have fallen oil i::l the expenses have iucreaind, so tha. the delicit for the current year will aniojct to more than nine million dollars. The- report shows that thero has been a saving to the governmeat of ?a4-,,'J'J I a. year caused by having the printing of stamps, etc., done by the bureau of printing- and engraving instead of by coutrdtc". First Assistant Postmaster General J.mos, in his report, condemns the free delivery system in rural districts as expensive and unsatis factory, tut he wiil lardly succeed in tausius; its abandonment. The Ameri can people rarely go backwards. The people who i.a"e Lee i beuelited by the cysteni feel tl. it they contribute their bhare towards .he mail tenance of the de partment, and they want as many of the benelits as it is possible to obtain. Congressman Wilson, he of tariJI bill fame, in explaining jjw it was done, pays: "Hard times is un enemy before which no political party in America has ver been able to s jcjesful stand wheu la power." This is a very lame excuse. In as much as Mr. Wilson's party told the peoplo that it was Republican legis lation that produced the hard times, why didn't his party at once proceed to undo this legislation which it considered go inimical to our welfare and give the country something better. The Demo cratic party did make reasonably good time in repealing the Sherman law but they failed to give the country anything in its stead and thus made the times not only no better but m tea worse. Then Mr. Wilson's party spent nearly a year trying to undo Kepublicaa tariil legisla tion which every kind of business was suffering more and more ail the time. The people doubtless came to the con clusion that a party tint could not adjust matter any more rapidly than that when it had entire control c f the government was a poor dependence for relief from existing conditions. Ha indulge in much talk about tha t trill matter but never refers to tha rep jal of the Sherman law which was the real cause of the trouble; not because ii was a good law but Leauf it was Let.er than none. UL'SIXE.SS IMPORT Ay CE. In connection with tie overshadowing damand of the country for prosperity in harmony with th great resourcss of the United Btatei, the St. Louis Globe-Dm-ocrat has a timely editorial, in wh!ch the busin man is givan worthy couaidera tian. "The business man," say3 that paper, "really presents our best type of citjzen ship. lie stands for an order of taleut, endeavor and association that lias more to do with the adjustment of our inter ests and tn shaping of oar destiny than any other one iuilunce. ilis traits of character, his tiethoJs of thought and action, are eueh as make hiaa oltsunctly representative. "His philosophy embraces all the con siderations that aifect ail classes of peo ple, and nothing that concerns the hum blest member of society is foreign to him. It is necessary for him to keep well posted on events of every kicd and questions of every nature, because every thing that happens has mure or less bear ing upon his calculations and his enter prise. He can not disconnect himself and his business from the general drift of things; he constitutes a part of a sys tem, and to drop out of it is to lose Lis opportunities of success. "The recent campaign was eseatially a busiae.s meu's campaign. The is.-ues involved were of kind tuat pertaiue i to the operations of trade above everything else, and all the circumstances combined to impart a commercial meuaiug to the contest. Never before in our political history, perhaps, did the bankers a;id merchants take such an active part iu a struggle between two parties; and it is not to be doubto i that taey were mainly instrumental in bringing about the decis ion that was rendered. The busiuess ele ment, in ahort, is tne controlling one in the United tjta'es, and its predominance is thii best assurance of national safety and prosperity." THE liLsiXEXii L'Ls. ME XT. Nothing contributed so much to the overwhelming defeat of Democracy ia the United States and Populism ia Kan sas as the business element. To thia class rallied the allied laboring element. The greatest desire was fur better times. The dominant parties in the nation and state prove 1 themselves in capable and incompe'ent. With the power in their hands, they wera power lens. The.re was nothing remaini ig for them to do but to step down. They did so at the forcible requ-sst of the people at the polls. What this country needs in its admin istrative bodies, ia less oratory and politics and more business and action. It mseds more men who have made business suc cesses of their own affairs and fewer in dividuals in public places wlxo have made failures in private, but think their theories will bring prosperity to the public. In filling the most important ofUce to be considered by the legislature this winttr, why not eiect a man who is the natural candidate in view of the situation presented and iu furtherance of the de mands of the people for bettor business, better times. The next United States senator should be a successful representative business man. If this is true, the iudividaal is Major C. Hood of Emporia, Plumb's con fidential friend and advisor, who did so much to make Plumb's career a success. Will any one deny that we need busi ness men in the United States senate? Look at the recent failure of that body to grasp the situation, and witness the rebuke by the people. In matters of finance, business experi ence and ability Major Hood stands at the head. He is a typical Kanean aa a representative of the business element. Neither is he alone a business man. He is broad-guaged, liberal, warm-haarted; with a national acquaintance, unques tioned character and integrity be would be such a representative as Kansas and the country needs iu the United States senate.

They ought to know tetter than to get into a game where "lulus"' are played. The completion of the new drug store at N'iotaze and the flight of the only joint keeper to the territory are regarded as both a natural and logical sequence by some people.

An effort is being made to have the procession move promptly at 7 o'clock, but as nobody will have his evening meal concluded at that time, it prob ably won't move before B. Those who value their personal Bafety will do well to not attempt to drive ve hicles on Kansas avenue. The procession will march to Tenth and the flambeau clubs will then coun termarch to the court house and secure their display of fire works, when they will again march to Tenth, making a brilliant pyroleciimc display.

The sum of sfOJ will secure eigut gal lons of whisky and two barrels of beer at the Welis-Fargo express office. The liquor was ordered about ten days ago by Dr. H. A. DvKes of the state board of health, who va so sute Leweiling was going to be elected that he arranged for a big time. His rooms on Kansas avenue were to be transformed into a banquet hall for a "love feast," and the select of the state Populism were to be there. lwo colored young men were engaged to serve the liquor. Scott Rice was in the deal, and there were to be thirty guests from Smith Center alone. But, alas, fur the fickleness of politics. The election returns completely wilted Mr. Dykes and those associated with him in the love feast. The liquor was never taken out of the express office. The ex press agent called several times to tee what tae doctor wanted done with the eight gallons of "skey" and two barrels of teor. T don't know," he said, "and what's more, 1 don't care a Throw it into the river, or drink it yourself. Anything, only don't talk to me about it." Ihe result is that some Republicans are figuring on taking Dr. Dykes' con signment off his hands; they think they can use it to good advantage tonight. T O T V 1 V S MASS ME ETING. To Take Action on l-lre Protection Com mittee Appointed The joint meeting of the city council and the citizens of Potwiu Piaee at the Potwin school house last evening to dis cuss the matter of fire protection was not so largely attended as the more sanguine expected. There were not more than titiy persons present. The matter was discussed informally Thomas Ebey was in favor of having the city of Potwiu own its own water works. James Booth thought a bucket brigade would be sutiicieut. Neither of these ideas met particular favor at the hands of the meeting. It was also suggested that arrange ments be made with the Topeka water company to put in a sufficient number of hydrants and that the city of Potwin then own a hose reel of its own and a volunteer fire company be organized. This was considered with more favor. The result of the meeting was that a committee from the Potwin council, con sisting of C. B. Hamilton, G. W. Park hursCE. S. Ogiiby and Mayor W. M. Forbes, was appointed to meet at some date in the near future with the TopeKa city council and discuss the matter of tire protection at Potwin by the use of the Topeka fire department and to inci dentally talk about the subject of an nexing Potwin to Topeka.

The trial of jury cases was resumed in the district today. The ieguiar petty jury is now hearing the case of W. H. .Miuert against Mrs. Francis M. Miller, it is a contest over a real estate agent's commission. Mrs. Miller had some valuable real estate to sell, and put it in Minert's hands to sell. She also put an "ad" in ihe Jocrnal's three-cent column. ihe "ad" found a purchaser before the real estate agent did, and Mrs. Miller sold the property for $4.5 j0. Then M inert demanded $2U0 commission, and was re fused. Hence this suit. Judge Hazen thinks the only point to be determined in the case is whether Mrs. Miller is act ing in good faith towards the agent, or he is trying to defraud her of the money.

Tnreildalr Is .ot CanRrmed 6y the c until, and We Will Try to Uet Tlirnujli tlte Winter Without au There was a fight in the city council last night over the conlirmation of the appointiiient of William Tweeddale as city engineer and the opposing faction scored a victory. The opponents of the appointment led by Councilman Fellows based their op position upon the fact that there is but little for a city engineer to do and hence the services of au engineer are not re quired. The question of confirmation was de ferred at the last meeting, and when it was called up last night Councilman Fel lows moved that the appointment be uot continued. lie said: "For the same rea son I gave a week ago, I oppose the con firmation. We are very much in need of $'0d.) or $3,000 for the use of the street departm nt, and we must save money or we cannot get that much money. The force now in the city engineer's office is fully competent to do the work this win ter, and I see no usa of mtking this appointment, thcugh at a reduced sala ry. The mayor I as before ma le appoint ments for specific duty, and when that duty was finished the appoiutee was dis charged, and I do not see why th tC can not be done in t lis case to save the city money." Councilman Stevens: "I would like the opinion of the city attorney on this question." City Attorney Tillotson "It looks more like a question of policy between the mayor and ccuncil than a legal ques tion." Councilman Fradford "Isn't it true that we must Lave a city engineer in or itr to let a cou:raet legally. City Attorney "i'es, we must have a lejal city engineor." Councilman Bradford "Could we ap prove an estimate if we had no city engineer." City Attorney "No, we could not." Councilman Follows "Could nut the mayor appoint the men now in the office for the time being?'' The Mayor "As far as that is con cerned it would oe better to discharge ail the others aui have one legal city ensrineer." Councilman Fe lows "The men in the office understand the worn manned out ty 31 r, do it. The Mayor "The work ad rifht." Couucilman Bra iford "I am the chaai pion of n'3 one, but if we refuse to con krtii Mr. Tweeddile we will have to roject the others t.lso. We must have a city engineer, and I want to vote for the continuation of soma one, for wa will be placed in a very awkward position if we do not. Not a contract can be let or an estimate approved witbout a city en gineer, ana since Mr. Tweeddale is com petent 1 favor his confirmation." Councilman Fulton "1 want to do the r:ght thiug and I am sure every one feels the same. The appointmeut of Tweeddale cuts the salary $50 per month, but if we can save f 100 more by doing without a city engineer I am in f tvor of doing so. It is not a personal matter, but a question of economy with me. If we mut make a cut 1 am in favor of reducing the salary of the big men and not the men who get f 1.50 a day." The mayor "Yju voted to keep Mr. E.ingtnaa'8 salary at f 150, and Mr. Fel lows was a strenuous advocate of the measure to keep his salarv at $130." Councilman Fulton "If I did I was wrong." Councilman Stephenson-'T am in favor of economy, but uot of getting a sudden fit'of economy, and as we need a city en gineer, I favor the co.itirui itiou." Councilm in Hoimau "I see nothing to warrant the appoiutme it of a city en gineer, and Mr. McCabe ouid act as city engineer until spring aui tne expense of ttie engineer cuuli be saved, and I de- sire to enter my protest agaiust the ap pointment of a city engineer at this time." j Councilman Fellows "If the mayor has a right to sa v t hat the city engineer's salary shall be $10J a month, when it is fixed by ordinance at $15l, he would also have the right to pay that it should be $200 a montii. I believe he could collect jtue $150." I The Mayor "No, he could not. We I have his contract." The vote was then taken and resulted as follows: For confirmation Stephenson, E' tling er, Bradford.

Admiral von Werner, a. h'trh author ity in naval matters in Ueru.aay, de scribes in a work recently r ubli lied the behavior of armor-piatea mea-of-vvar in heavy seas. lie says: "Kven with a moderate gale a a d sea an armor-plated cruise r, if goirir atrainst the wind, will find herself in condi tions similar to thobe of a. storm at least, tha crew will luive t'iat im pression. The movements of the stern of the ship are violent cud exceed ingly disagreeable. The waves pushed by the advancing' prow sweep con tinually over the ship from bow to stern. All windows and port iioies must be closed, and air reaches the lower decks, where the hf at incri-as s unbearably, only through t-ie artifi cial ventilators. With the ex ception of the specially pro tected command bridge all the uncovered portions of ti e ship are impassable; thus the wholj of tha crew must bear as well is they can the hell of the closed decks. On svich a ship no one can feel comfortable; and when there is a storm in which a sailing- ship would feel comparatively at ease the crew of an armor-piated ship imagines itself to be in a heavy hurricane which threatens destruc tion at every minute. Tho ion.if. nar row forepart of tho ship, which is not borne lig-htly by the water, and is rendered extremely he-ivy by the mijj-hty ram and the armored deck and the cannon and torpedojs, forces the ship in a hig-h sea, to pi t eh in; s and rollings of such an extraordinary kind that they cannot be described. The crew of such a ship is not only exposed to mortal dangers, but the voyages they mika render them physically, vxtremely an I dang er ously nervous; the mental impressions they receive wear them out anJ make the profession hatef ul."

'Where did you first meet her?" 'At a Bohemi an masque ball in Venice. She was impersonating- Cleopatra, a worthy repre sentative of that I saw her and i" V p wonrlerful queen. loved her. and that's all there is to it." The speakers were two men. one in his first youth and the second a man of 40 or thereabouts, w.th hair streaked with gray and a blase, cynical face. "As I understand this afTiiir, the difficulty is that you do not attempt to make a secret of it." "I'd like to know what business it is of yours, anyway." "2S"ow, Harry, don't g-et ansry with me. You know rne too well for that. JMy only reason for questioning- you so impertinently and presuming to men tion this affair at all, is that I met Miss Iilanchard coming- over on the steamer and became very much in terested in her, knowing- as I do the arrangement which exists between you two young- folks. "I had been envying you and think ing what a lucky ch.ip you were, when, suddenly upon landing, the first news I hear is a pretty morsel of scandal concerning' you and this Mrs. Athelstyne." The men were strolling in the park, but now suddenly the elder man paused at a bench, and made a motion for his companion to sit down beside him. Then he continued; "Harry, my life was spoiled by just such an entanglement as this of yours. I lost all chance of winning1 one of the best aud sweetest of good, pure women for my wife, because of the publicity of my intrigue with a notorious woman. You have always called me cynicaL God knows I have had enough to make me so." Harry St Clair looked at his friend with a newly awakened interest and sympathy. "I was younger than you are now, and I was not promised to one of the most beautiful girls in the world, as you are." "That w not my doing." St. Clair muttered, '.enly. "I have never seen Nera nchard in ray life. Our e came about through an an me made by our parents years ago. The older man continued without heeding- the impetuous interruption. "At that time I met a girl, a lov.'ly young English actress, and proceeeled to become madly infatuated with her. I should have married her had she consented, but she would not marry me. I know now that she ha 1 higher ambitions. At that time she per suaded me that it was solicitude for my social and professional career which d terred her. I made no se cret of my wild infatuat on. We were seen together every where in the rn ist public places. Society frowned at first. Afterward it turned a cold shoulder upon me. Not that I cared. 1N ""si i l v v "MT GOD.' SHE IS MY OWN CHILD." I was too much wrapped up in that woman to care for anything. One morning I woke up to find that she had deserted me. 'Gone abroad with a member of the nobility,' so her note said. A lord who was g-oing- to marry her. "I met a woman about a year after ward my ideal woman cultured, refined, pure and noble-hearted. I loved her. It was no mad infatuation that time, but a deep, abiding love, which burns in my heart to-day just as it did when I first trrew to know and understand her wonderful nature. She, God bless her, returned my love, and we were engaged to ba married. Then one day that other one came back. The man with whom she ran away from me had in turn deserted her. Harry, she brought me a child. It was my child. She implored me to take the little creature and bring it up. She said she was not worthy to have the care of it and she promised never to annoy me again if I would do so. "I yielded to her prayers and took the little girt I took her to France and placed her in a convent, and then went back to my betrothed with that miserable secret upon my conscience. "My betrotheci heard of it and dis missed me. That was all, except that the child died a year later, and now I am alone in the world, with no one to love but you, Harry. Don't 2'wu me, too. Uou' t let me bee y. th- j your life -n recked by the same error that ruined mine. "I have often heard you wonder why I always wort this old fashioned pearl locket on my fob. I will tell you. It belong-ed to that first woman, an I when she left the child with me. it was about the little one's soft: white throat. I wear it as a penance, a constant reminder of my sin." At that moment a perfectly ap pointed carriag-e rolled past, bearing1 a royally beautiful womap, who leaned back among her cushions with the languor of a grande dame. Her large dark eyes spied Harry St. Clair, and she favored him with a beaming smile and a flattering dow. Gerald Brisbane became as white as a statue as his eyes rested .upon the passing- woman. "Who Is that, Harry" he asked, in a low, choked voice. D"That is Mrs. Athelstyne," the young man replied, and there was a low note of triumph in his tone as he noticed his companion's evident ex citement. "Now, will you acknowl edge that I did not flatter her when I called her the most beautiful woman in New York?" j Brisbane hesitated a moment, and i when he spoke it was in a curiously suppressed manner, j "Now that I have seen her," he j paid; "I feel bound to urge you more importunately to end this affair. That woman could never be true to any man. Believe me, my boy, I know what I say." Harry St. Clair turned and looked long and earnestly at his companion's perturbed countenance, and then with a sig-h of despair he turned aside. "Mrs. Athelstyno was the first woman then," he murmured. "I un derstand it all dow."

Lights flashed, music clashed and eweet sounds of revelry floated out of the wide-opened windows of the St Clair mansion. It was a most joyful occasion, A reception in honor of the home-coming of the bride and p-rorm, Harry St. Clair and his exquisite younsf girl wife, formerly Nera Blanchard. Society smiled upon the young couple and grave them its blessing. Were they not both of them young-, handaome, well connected and wealthy? Mr. Brisbane "bent over his friend's wife. "I have something for you," he said, with a kind smile on his j proud, sensitive lips. "What? More gifts? Why, you have overwhelmed us already with your generosity. Gerald." "But this is for you alone, Nera," he murmured significantly, "and I want you to promise me that you i will wear it always, night and day. J Harry knows the history of my little ofFerinsr, and he will appreciate my whim in thus asking- you to wear it for me." Nera's sweet eyes had grown grave beneath the earnestness of her friend's manner and she promised to wear his trinket forever more. "You see, I have an idea that it is something- of a talisman," he said gayly, as he prouueed a tiny velvet box. and opened it before her expect ant gaze. Within upon a cushion of creamy velvet reposed an old-fashioned pearl locket to which was fastened a slender gold chain.

After the departure of the guests St. Clair and Gerald Brisbane, whom he had persuaded to remain all night, repaired to Harry's smoking- den to enjoy a brief c'B'ttr. "How much I owe to you, Gerald," the younger man i-aid earnestly. "Tut! my boy, your own true heart would have been as sure a guide as you imag-ine my unhappy experience was. By the way, do you ever hear anything from Mrs. Athelstyne?" Harry stirred uneasily. "No, but do vou know, Gerald, that is the only thing that disturbs me. She cut up rather roughly, you know, over my desertion, and swore that I should not keep my wife long. It was a horrible experience and it made a tremendous impression upon me. Do vou suppose she will try to harm Nera?" Brisbane bent his head back and watched the tnaoke curl lazily above his head. "No," he said decidedly. "Take my word for it, Harry, Mrs. Athelfctvne will never harm a hair of your wife's head." At that very moment, in the apartment di rectly above St. Clair's den, a magnificent woman with a fiendish smile upon her beautiful face leaned over her hated rival, Harry St Clair's lovely wife. "So he preferred you, with your baby face and innocent ways, to inn with my beauty and intelligence and passionate love, for I did love him. He is the only man. who has ever con quered my wild impetuous nature. Other men have loved me, but I cared for no one until I met him. "I swore that you should never live to enjoy the happiness of his daily presence, and I have come to fulfill 1 my oath." With a sickening- gleam a shining daeger blade flashed in the dim lamp light, but instead of descending upon the bared, white breast of the sleep ing woman, it fell to the floor with a dull thnd amid the heavy draperies of the couch. The woman's eyes were riveted to the girl's snowy throat, whereon rested what was to her a familiar trinket, a little pearl locket. "My God! She is my own child, and I would have .murdered her." The next morning- Mrs. St. Clair's maid found a curious, old-time dagger on the floor near her mistress bed. Every one was surprised and aston ished at the discovery except Gerald s Brisbane. "I fancy the pearl locket accom- plished its intenie I destiny, he told himself, "and I am at last rs vended." tlllTtr- V '-til ill II Ull II Vm" mlS. 4.: sllOllld b-J provided with tlia we! 1-k no win cm e r;re 1 f medicine, CHERRY PECTORAL The beat remedy jfvr ull diseases of the Throat and Lin:;:;.

The Mayor Closes the Engineer's OGce Altogether, FOLLOWING TEC COUNCIL'S YOTE. Wo Khali le Rid of the "luttlns Down to Urate .Inliuce tor a While at Least and Save J.ot of Doner. This morning Mayor Harrison issued aii order iloYmg the city engineer's office. This is the result of the refusal of the council to contim Col. Tweeddale last oiffhL An account of the action of the couucil will be found in another place. Tiie order closing the engineer's oHice ia as follows: IS. S. MeFa klen, Esq., Tor-eka, Kansas: Dkaii Ssk The council having' decided that in their judgiaent there is no neces sity fur a city engineer I have discharged all the employes i i the engineering de partment, and you will at once take pos session of all records, papers and prop erty belonging to that dapartmont, and preserve the same until further instruct ed. There being 10 oity engineer, there ia no need of any employes in that de partment. The records in that office are important ana valuable beyond estima tion. The whole fabric of our city im provement depends upon them. They must be carefully preserved. The law requires that they shall be in charge of a duly qnalitied officer under bonds for their preservation, and the proper performance of the duties of that ollice. JSo employe can have access to them except under the direction of the proper otiicial who is responsible to the city. Yours respectfully, T. V. Harrison, Mayor. The mayor also issued orders discharg ing the present employes of the office. 'I ho order discharging Jamas ilc Cabe, who was an applicant for the po sition of city engineer, is as follows: James Mot abe, Esq.. Topeka: Dear ik The city council decided last night that there was no necessity for a city engineer aid there being no" city engineer there is no further need of any employes in the engineering department, as no one can be responsible for the duties in that department excepting a duly appointed end qualified city en gineer. You have t een carried upon ttje roil as a helper in the engineer's. office but there appears to be no ordinance providing- for the payment of such em ploye. You are therefore relieved from lurther bervice aad will at once turn over to the city olerk all property be longing to the city which is under" your control. Yours respectfully, T. Uarrison, Mayor. Uenry En? ell was the other employe who was dischargsd. Both he and Mc Cabe have teo (.rawing stlariea of $53 per month a heifers in the departmeat. Both are old employes, Engell having been in the office seven years and 51c Cabe six. Mayor Harrisoa said this morning when asked when he would appoint an engineer: "When the cconcil reconsiders the vots taken last n gat. I cannot be es ptd to ignore Wat vote.

This will be a very attrac tive place for you this week. A place to save a little money. COMPANY, DRY had been pending some tinu and the council are supposed to understand what they were doing. The city attorney ad vised them as to the legal questions in volved, and their action was taken ad visedly and with deliberation."' In speaking about the action of Coun cilman Fellows, he 6aid: "It seems strange. Last February when I was insisting thnt the salary of the city engineer be fixed at $100 a month and superintendent of the city light plant at $1,00 J a year, he as chairman of the ways and moans committee, insisted thtt the engineer's salary should remain at $150 a mouth and the superintendent of the light plant at $1500 a year, aud now that I have secured a competent engineer at $liJU a month, he insiais that as a matter of economy there sh.tll be no engineer at all. There are two kinds of economv, one judicious the other fjlse. It would be poor economy to go barefoot in the winter to save the price of a pair of shoes and then pay 100 doctor's bill as a result. "Notwithstanding the hard time3, dif ficulty of collecting taxes anil loss of the poll tax we will get through this year with all bills paid and without a dellciency or using any of next year's taxes, something which ha not been done in ten years before, and the streets and city property generally in far better condition than usual at this time of year, and it would seem like false or uncalled for economy to close the city engineer's office and run the risk of tho damages which might result from 6o djing. "There can be no doubt as to my duty in the matter. The records ia the engi neer's office are as important to the city as those in the office of register of deeds are to tho county. You might just as well throw the register's office open to the publio without any official to be responsible for the records as to leave the engiueer's office without the officer provided by law to be responsible for the records and duties of the office. LAZY IN WELL DOING. Mr. Kmbrce Says if ItsubmiioQ Comes It 1 Because Iro1ii!itioni-t9 Weaken. At the First M. E. church Suuday evening Kev. Dr. A. S. Erabree talked about "The election and what should fol low it." His text was llave salt in your selves.'" Dr. Embree referred to the talk about the possible resubmission of the prohibi tion amendment by saying: "Some one said the other dav that a gentleman elected to the legislature is in favor of resubmission. 1 do not know whether this be true. It may seem strange to you, but 1 will add that I do not much care. That does not trouble me haif so much, but that the good people of his district may lack salt in themselves and be at home enjoying their books and papers while the rum 5eni continues to ply his trade, poiaon the public miud and pave the way to resubmission, for I know that if these people will bestir themselves as they can and ought, that man will no mora think of resubmission than of suicide."

Topeka will have an opportunity to morrow evening of seeing Felix Morris in two plays. The first will be a pathetic little gem from the French. The second will be his latest success, "Behind the Scenes." The story is as follows: Achille Talma Dufard, an old comedian without occupation, who lives iu the memory of his art aud upon the hope fed by his faith in his daughter's genius. After many fruitless attempts to se cure her an engagement at one of the London theaters, the old man is success ful iu procuring for his daughter, Rose Dufard, the position of an "extra" at the Theater RoyaL When, throngs caprice, the leading lady, Miss Beresford, has re fused to go on in her part, Dufard hur ries to the theater with his daughter Rose and asks that she be taken as a substitute. It is, of course, not until the lafct moment that the management ac cepts the young aspirant for the lead ing lady's place. When Miss Beres ford, realizing that her refusal may ruin her professionally, rushes to the theater, dresses for her scene, and assumes to take her leading character at the very moment the young debutante is ready to go upon the stage. Miss Beres ford. in a tit of anger, threatens that she also will force her way to the stage and play her part, thus spoiling the play, and she is only restrained bv force from cre ating a most embarrassing situation. The young debutante is received with favor and applause, and before the close of the play she has won her success as the dramatic rival of the capricious ac tress, who, in a lit of pique, resigns her position, to which Rose Dufard, the ec centric old musician's daughter, is pro moted. LOCAL MENTION. If the people of Topeka do not go to see Felix Morris the Jocksal will not blame L. M. Crawford if he doesn't briug anv more good plays here this winter.
