OFFICIAL PAPER OP TREGO COUHTY.
., .
Saturday, Feb. 11, 1893.
The signs of the times indicates
a double house of representatives
for the entire session of fifty days.
Both houses will hold moot sessions
and the time will be absolutely
wasted. Bills passed by the popu
list house and concurred in by the
populist senate will be illegal, in
valid and unconstitutional for the
.reason that a majority of both
houses is necessary to pass a bill,
and the populist house is not a legal
organization. Measures passed by
the legal republican house will not
he approved by the senate for that
would be equivalent to admitting
-that it was the legally organized
house. Hundred of bills have al
ready been introduced by the popu
list house and senate and will doubt
less become laws so far as their ac
tion goes. These bills will all be
signed by the governor and will be
incorporated into our statutes. The
result of it all will be that when the
legislature adjourns the state of
Kansas will practically be without
laws and it will take perhaps years
to straighten out the muddle. It
seems that the populists are well
satisfied that the supreme court will
hold all laws, passed without a con
currence of the republican house,
illegal, and they are determined to
attempt no legislation that will give
the republicans an opportunity to
test the question in the courts until
after adjournment. If the populists
would afford the chance the matter
of the legality of their legislature
would be determined in twenty-four
hours. It makes no difference
whether the matter is decided now
or after adjournment it must ulti
mately be decided by the present su
preme court. Then, why delay the
settlement? The republicans can
not bring the matter into the courts
except by the usual process of law
unless the populists shall pass an ap
propriation bill or some measure
that might be taken advantage of
by injunction proceedings. There
never has been a legislature in Kan
sas that was in session four weeks
without passing an appropriation
for the per diem and mileage of its
members, and the only reason this
has not been done is because they
know their treasurer would be en
joined from paying and this pro
ceeding would settle the entire ques
tion involved. The populists then
must be held responsible for, having
the power to delay a determination,
they resolutely exercise it. So far
as we can judge from the present
outlook, the only class that will
reap a harvest from the 1893 legis
lature is the lawyers. The consti
tutionality of every so-called law
passed the present session will be
questioned in the courts.
The determination of the popu
list majority in the state senate to
override all fairness and law shows
them to be a very dangerous ele
ment, wholly unfit for the responsi
bilities of government. The manip
ulations of the proceedings of the
joint convention to suit their pur
poses, and the right they assert to
suppress the views of a minority of
a committee, the reckless manner
with which they declare seats va
cant and admit men not elected, in
dicates a mixture of scoundrelism
with their insanity which bodes no
good to the state should they suc
ceed in getting full control. We
believe it to be the duty of the re
publicans to stand their ground,
that nothing may be done until the
people have opportunity to pass
judgment on the infamous spirit
and transactions of this strange and
unaccountable mob. If we are to
Jiave revolution in any way in our
governmental policy, or a change in
the methods of all business transac
tions among the people, let it come
peacefully and in accordance with
prescribed methods, and let the re
publicans stand firm, that violent,
bluffing and bulldozing usurpation
jnay not succeed. W.q trust the re
publican members of the lower
house may retain their status. It is
better that the entire session be
wasted, and the state and other bus
iness be tied up for two years,
rather than concede or permit to be
established the damnable " idea that
any mob that may first entrench it
self in the hall of the house, is the
legislature, and that it can make it
self by arbitrarily putting one set of
men out and seating another. If
the populist idea prevails then we
will never know when we have a
legislature, and elections by the peo
ple will become a mockery. It is
worth more than two years of all
things else to re-establish lawful
procedure, and this the republicans
are obliged to do. Kansas City
(Kansas) Gazette.
History very nearly repeats itself
in the appointment of Judge Jack
son, of Tennessee, to the supreme
court bench. One of the first judi
cial appointments by Mr. Cleveland
was that of Mr. Jackson as judge
of the United States circuit court
for the 6th judicial district; one of
the last appointments made by Pres
ident Harrison was that of Judge
Jackson to the supreme bench. The
appointment is a good one so far as
fitness is cjncerned, but some of
the republican senators think that a
republican should have been ap
pointed, and some of the democrats
are not well suited with the choice.
President Harrison made the selec
tion on the grounds of fitness alone
and with the idea that partisanship
should not govern in the selection
of a judiciary. We give him credit
for the bravest, most patriotic act
that can well be conceived of, and
we sincerely hope that the custom
will be recognized and followed by
all parties in all time to come.
It has been openly charged that
a few of the populist leaders have an
understanding with the railroads to
block all valid legislation this ses
sion by refusing to recognize the re
publican house. All that the
railroads want is no legislation
or legislation that will be de
clared constitutional. While it
does appear that the railroads are
in pretty good shape, so far as adverse
legislation is concerned, yet perish
the thought, say we. of the pure
minded, immaculate populists enter
ing into a deal of that nature. If
it were the republicans, or even the
democrats why it would be differ
ent. "But the populists, avaunt!
Why you will remember that the
populists would not even accept a
pass from the railroads, for, was not
accepting a pass equivalent to ac
cepting a bribe? Such statements
should be frowned down even by
the republicans in good standing.
We deny the allegation and defy
the allegator.
The supreme court of Iowa has
decided that a man who is eligible
to an office at the time he enters
upon its duties is eligible to election.
This decision covers the case of the
Kansas republicans who had all re
signed before the legislature con
vened, but they were thrown out by
an illegal populist house just the
same. The decision does not cover
the case of the populist members of
the senate who were actually post
masters when they took the oath of
office, but they were retained by the
populist senate just the same.
If Not, Why Not?

Satubday Blade or the Chicago Ledg
