BEX LEE, County Surveyor of Harper Co. First published March 10, 1M93. important Bill Passd-BUl Higgins Has Stolen a Legislature and Now Tries JiU Hand on Railroad Commissions. Topeka. March 13, 1893.

Ed Bulletin: At noon to-day the incpri im i t.s business. 205 bills became laws out of 810 intro duced; 103 were senate bills, and 102 originated in the house only about hpr nsnallv nassed at a LLtXlL VLIVs i- la v. i. Manv of these were 1 Hid. i v- local in character.

The most impor tant general bills outside of the regular aDDropriation bills were the Aus tralian Ballot bill: the Anti-Bribery bill. The Mortgage Redemption bill The Grain Shippers bill, compelling ris tn nnt, in track scales at every station where one hundred cars of grain, hay and seeds are shipped ner annum, which enables the shipper tn hnirf the railroad company liable for losses in transit. A bill for the protection of miners which will compel mine owners to pay for the coal actually mined, instead of paying for what is left after screening This law has been demanned for years by the miners of our state. A bill preventing conductors of passenger trains from collecting an excess of fare from passengers who fail to pur chase tickets. A bill compelling all corporations to pay their employes weekly or incur a penalty of 5 per cent if not paid.

Railroad companies and agricultural cornorations are exempt from the provisions of this bill. A. bill amending the tax law, doing away with the March penalty of 5 per cent, and after the sale of property for taxes, the tax certificate will only draw 15 per cent instead of 24 per cent as now. An insurance bill compelling in surance companies to pay the run face of the policy in case of total loss of the property. A bill making gold contracts illegal in notes, mortgages or other obligations, and making silver a legal tender in the state of Kansas.

A bill for the protection of birds including quail and prairie chickens. All hunters should read this law as soon as published. A bill increasing the number of the State Board of education and proyid- ng for a uniform system for the is suing of life certificates to teachers. Only one joint resolution was passed submitting an amendment to the constitution and that was in the nterest of the ladies; it provides an amendment which, should it carry, will frive them the unqualified right of suffrage in the state of Kansas. No railroad legislation in the way of reduction of freight rates was secured and the entire blame rests with the republican party as usual.

The Santa Fe had, decreed that it should be thus and their servants had to obey their dictation. Quite a little sensation was created yesterday when the last formal demand was made by the newly elected railroad conmmissioners, Vincent and Hall, upon the old board for possession of the office, and it was refused as heretofore; and Attorney General Little commenced proceedings in mandamus against the two old members, and one of the charges against Anthony is that he has not been a railroad commissioner since April 1, 1892. having never given bond or taken the oath of office for his second term and the notorious Bill Higgins steps in to try his hand at stealing the office for him having succeeded so well in the stealing from the people an entire legislature he now thinks himself equal to any emergency. It remains to be seen whether he has not caught his match in locking horns with Secretary Osborne in the attempt. The following is Higgins' "bluff" coming in the way of a dispatch, and Secretary Osborne's reply: St.

Louis, March 10, 1S93. R. S. Osborne, Secretary of State, Topeka, Kan. When I turned the office over, the bond and oath of Anthony as railroad commissioner for 1S92, 1S93 and 1894 were in your office.

Proof is beyond all question. If not there you have allowed them to be stolen. The trick won't work. William Higgixs. Secretary Osborne makes the following statement of facts in regard to the matter: i-On the 30th day of March, 1892, the executive council elected George T.

Anthony to succeed himself as a member of the board of railroad commis sioners, but his bond is not in this office for the term beginning April 1, 1892, nor do the minutes of the executive council show that any bond was approved by them for that term. Nor is there on file in this office, nor has there been since the office was turned aver to me, any oath of office subscribed to by said George T. Anthony for the term beginning April 1, 1892, nor has any such oath of office been recorded in the book kept for that purpose. Nor has any com mission been issued to him for the term beginning April 1, 1892, according to the record of commissions kept in this office. "The books in this office are open for all to inspect And four such books of record show that no man can steal entries therefrom and show no mutilation, namely: The minutes of the executive council, the official bond record, the record for the entry of oaths of office and the record for the entry of all commissions, going to show that George T.

Anthony in no particular gave bonds or qualified as a member of the board of railroad commissioners for the term beginning April 1st, 1S92; and all state ments to the contrary are in difect contradiction to all facts to be found in this office. And I invite all men to examine and ascertain the truthfulness of my statements. And let the lie and rascality fall where it belongs. Come now to the record."

E. Fain, President. The Kansas legislature adjourned Monday evening at 9 o'clock. A prairie fire swept over two or three Western Kansas counties this week which damaged farmers to the extent of $8,000. Two lives are reported lost as a result of fighting the flames.

An election machine built upon the principle of a cash register or "nickle in the slot" machine has been successfully tested in Warsaw, New York. It was a complete success. "The polls were opened at 6 a. m. and closed at 6 p.

and polled 950 votes; the average time in booths of each voter was twenty seconds. In five minutes after the polls closed the vote was counted by the machine and recorded on the dial plate. The voter touches the key bearing the name of the candidate and the machine does the rest. It is A shame and a disgrace, after having worked so long and so strenuously in the interest of the millionaire manufacturers of the East, that these monopolists should allow the republican party of Ohio to raise money by dollar subscriptions to help Bill McKinley pay his security obligations. We doubt not that even the protected hens in Ohio are scratching early and late in Bill's behalf, but yet the manufacturer's sympathies are untouched.

The Santa Fe pays 'em out in Kansas. The Kansas City Times Says, "When the populist is educated by experience he will be like other men." The assertion is quite premature. The "other men" referred to by the Times doutless means that class of boodlers who have feathered their nests by selling out to the corporations, but we have yet to learn of the first populist wno has been guilty of bribe-taking. The new party started out to right the wrongs of evil doers, and not to place its individual members in position to steal from the people. The Times should have withheld its statement until occasion presented, and thereby saved itself the criticism of having jumped at a conclusion.

Governor Levelling desires the removal of C. K. Holliday and J. Ralph Burton as National World's Fair commissioners from Kansas be cause the first is a democrat who opposed fusion and the latter is a prominent republican. Junc tion City Sentinel.

fcucn statements as tne above are calculated to deceive the public and should be given no credence whatever. That man Holliday was one of the first and strongest advocates of fusion in the state up to within less than two weeks of the election, when, his father being largely interested in Santa Fe railroad stocks, it was deemed best to buy him off, and he sold out "body and soul," thereupon turning traitor to the very cause for which he fought so earnestly and untiringly both personally and through the columns of his paper. He is unworthy and an unfit subject for the least office under any administration. Burton is a recognized tool of monopoly and both sanctioned and aided in the republican rebellion against law, order, and decency at Topeka. He, too, is unfit for office under an administration "of the people, for the people and by the people." Both men are branded by the more respectable class of people and should be scalped at once and lost sight of.

the following protest: "We, the undersigned members of tne legislature protest asrainst thp. way in which the business of the pres- d. TT eiib nouse oi iepresentatives is and has been transacted. The journal of tne nouse nas not been printed, read nor approvea; ana as it is controlled by our political enemies we have no way or knowing what it contains. We have, on verifying the vote at different times, proved the journal incorrectwe being recorded as voting when we did not vote, and as voting one way when in fact we voted the other.

The refusal on the part of the republican majority to print, read or approve the journal, in order that we may know whether it is correct or not, is contrary to all precedents estab lished by former legislatures in Kan sas, contrary to all rules of parliamen tary procedure and absolutely without reason or excuse; and against such tyrannous, unparliamentary and un just proceedings we hereby enter our solemn protest." Signed by 37 members. In the Miscellaneous Appropriation bill can be seen some of the mos fla grant steals that were ever injected into any measure. The demand made by the populists that the employes of the Dunsmore house should be paid, induced the opposition to throw the doors wide open for the admission of all manner of trumped-up accounts, I will allude to one as a sample "To the Copeland hotel, for lunch furnished members while in the State house, $1420.20." Your humble servant would have spent the summer driying a hack in Topeka before he would have roted for such rascality. Geo. H.
