lierd- is a iruesn: In Hie (Irst plau-lirmost, If not in ail instaneel in which tJiey were Iwatenj, the soUiiers were the candidates of the uiinmity party and thus ihad a heavy hiiudieap to bejrili with. In the second place they did not reach home until the day before the election and not time to do per- Bonal work, their competitors, on the other hand, had been on ijhe ground all sunamer and had extracted pledges of support from practically every voter of their ijarty. In the third place, few voters, wjheu they went to the polls, knew which of the candidates was a soldier and which was not. To a newspaper man, particularlj' to a political whose it is to everj detail of the local it may seetn strange that an intelligent American citizen should g) to the polls! without; knowing the inses of the for whom or atnst whom Ijie expects is noipore strajnge than that many intelligent American citizens shoiild not hive at their fcpngue's end the market lujgfs abd cattle and produce, or Hilie amount jof wheat oij oats that should be B0w4d to acre pf Voter to politics. Particularly in an such as this was, when in many counties not a single political speech was made.

And it is no reflection whatever on his intelligence that he may have gone to the polls without having fixed the names of even the candidates of his own party in his mind, to say nothing of remembering the name oi one of the candidates of the other party who was saitl to be a soldier but whom he had never seen and whom he knew nothing about. All he remembered was that he wis a ReiHibllcan or he wasn't, and he voed-his ticket straight, lilu' a )d mall and true. This Is the reaHon why llu- Kdldier faiididatcH got so lew more than Mielr party votes, and It Is no relU 'ctlon on the patriotism of the voters. It seems to the KEt4isTKutliat these three adverse ma jorlty to begin with, the absence of the sold'er and the activity of the home candidate, and the carelessness of the voters in the matter of names of a fairly con elusive explanation of the phenomenon concerning which the iStar inquires. NoHODY seems to doubt that the Republican candidate fot governor of Kentucky has been elected, and nobody seems to doubt that the Demo- ocratic candidate will be counted in.

And et alter all in the long run it doesn't pay to steal an election any more than It does to steal a horse, and it isn't any more honorable. HE garrison Is in good health, but Is nearly worn out with dodging the shells," Is a little sentence In the Honth African dl8i )atches which seems to shatter the tradition that the Kngllsh soldier never seeks cover. I THE COURT OF VISITATION FARCE. Charlie Curtis is dead right in saying that the Republicans ought to go into t-e next campaign with a pledge to repeal the ridiculous Court of Visitation Law. The papers of the State generally have treated the law as a great joke, not to be spoken of seriously, but it is a very expensive joke and has been laughed at long enough.

The serious truth is that the law, which took a special session of a Populist legislature to pass, is a rank absurdity to which nobody paj-s the least attention, which has never done and can never do any possible good. The three good fellows who constitute the "Court" sit in their office at the State House, or loat around Copeland county, day after day, without even a letter to, answer, taking good uatUredly the good natured gibes of their friends about the sinecure they are holding, and smoking themselves to death for very lack of anything 'lse to do. The rallroatls In the hioantinie are doing exactly as they please, whlcli In general Is well but which if It were very 111 thift court could not in the least change. The law is characteristically I'opu- much and accomplishing It is not at all Republican, and the Republican party should wipe it out and pass a decent, effective law in its place the lirst chance it gets. ALKING about meteors, does anybody know of any person or property ever being injured by them? They do undoubtedly strike the earth in con-' siderabie numbers, and wiih sufticient force to make it very interesting to a man house that happened to be near by.

But so far as tills deponent has observed they always pick out a good big open field to fall in. ATER Since the foregoing was in news comes that a house in Illinois was partially wrecked by a meteor. Which again proves that it pays to advertise in the EGISTER. THEOtta-wa JleraJd believes the world is growing better. A man who had taken the paper for a month wouldn't pay for It, but a neighbor who had been borrowing it every day came around and squared the Topeka Journal.

That proves the theory sofer as the borrower is wncerned. But how sbjaUawag CLIPS Hi The towns which put on the most dog lu Kaneasi are tne towns which have been most suoceesful in collecting the dog tax. If Dewey la as warm a lover as the Twentieth Kansas boys he will find it rather embarrassing to have "the eyes of the world" upon him dnring bis honeymoon. Out In the western part of the Stsfte a man is elected to office because he la a "good mixer." In the cities a man who is a good mixer is much sought after as a bar tender. The editor of the Topeka Breeze has been appointed official Capper (or Mies Gould's little lack of confidence game against the would- be-Congressman Roberts.

A Newton and Leavenworth girl, so it now appears, were the "Turkish dancers" at Wichita midway. Which shows that many of the fair attractions were stuff'n' nonsense. After December 1 the 8anta Fe wU! operate a steamship line to Bouth America and the pass fiends are losing sleep over the question of bow to work the road for a pass over the whole works. A man' who gave his name as Prof. Brick, of swindled tne people of Olatbe on the streets lately and the NewB'Herald refers to him as a "guy." It la possible that the editor bit at the old Brick swindle.

The star shower failed to appear this far west. It Is just possible that the astral Leo, i eoeinfr the drubbing: whioh the Hrltleh Leo Is getting In Houth Africa, hijbd tall tuokod l)0 tweeu his Itigs In fright. Au Eldorado candidate owned a small dog which barked at the heels of a boy, and boy's father refused to vote for the man. The wise politician is he who confines hla menagerie propensities to "having a hen on." I At a recent fire in Troy Cy Leland's opera house block worth and insured for $4,000, was destroyed. It is now up to the politicians who think' Cy has a cloven hoof to explain why he didn't exert his eatanic power to control the flames.

Topeka's public institutions are built ou the "mulium in parvo" plan. A new fence will be built around the jail and in the yard it is proposed lo doild a shed over a rock pile, flower beds, a patrol wagon barn, pen- for stray dogs, a prisoners' wash house. The prisoners squeeze themselves into the renftkining space. Ex-Governor GlicK has sold his famous Shannon Hilt stock farm west ol Atchison for It was stocked with a hundred fine Herefords. His cause for Belling was the mental strain of looking after the big enterprise.

Time was when people thought brains not necessary on a farm, but the man who tried it ou this theory has long eioce sold out to a man who mixed brain with muscle. The editor of the Jacir- SQjiiaQ advortlsed.for a Bible and the UethodiBt preaqber ofthtkt place gave hiiooQe.
