Another gigantic Ecbeme for swind
ling the government has been unearthed
la connection with the manufacture of
armor xiercing projectiles. The ex
penditure of vast 6ums of money in the
manufacture of this claes of goods and
guns and naval vessels which goes oa
from year to ye;ir, is little less than an
absolute waste of the people's money at
best, but when the government does not
get what It pays for, then it is surely
time to call a halt. But nfter all what is
the good derived from those discoveries?
They only result ia an investigation, in
curring additional expense and are fol
lowed by a liberal application of white
wash and the ply goes on. There can
Le no change f jr the better until the
administrative and legislative powers of
the government are held responsible for
these steals, by the peopV. Ihe protest
must be made at the billot box. The
rs feasibility Is not di3clr to locate.
A PREACHER'S OPPORTUNITY.
The Rev. Samuel Lane Loomis says, ia
a recent issue of the Chautauquan, "The
tramp should not be suffered to pursue
his way. lie ought to be suppressed No
able-bodied man should be suffered to
live without engaging ia useful labor."
The Rev. Samuel Lace Loomis should ba
delegated at once to supply the "useful
labor" at which the 2.000.0J0 tramps ara
to be set If he can do it, the whole
country would rejoice. Why doesn't the
Rev. Samuel Lane Loomis begin by em
ploying one or two himself? If every
man who thinks that the tramps should
all be set to work would furnish perma
nent employment to one or two himself,
the tramp problem would soon be set
tled. But people like Preacher Loamii
are always lookiug to somebody else to
furnish the employment. The employers
of labor ia this country say that they
have not the work to offer; has Mr.
Loomia heard of that? There was a
movement some months ago by tha
tramps themselves, asking the govern
ment to give them work, as the ucual
employing agencies had failed; but that
movement was heavily sat down on.
One part of the Rev. Samuel Lane
Loomis' Btatement is good; viz., "Xo
uble-bodied man should be suffered to
live without engaging ia useful labor."
We fear the yachting Mr. George Gould
and Ward McAllister and the Astors and
a hundred millionaires and sons of mil
lionaires in New York, who inherited
their fortunes, and who do not do an iota
of work, would be included in this de
scription. It isn't the tramp alene that
loafs through this world without engag
ing in useful labor. The Rev. Samuel
Lane Loomia 6trikes us as being a mild
kind of a simpleton.
The initiative and referendum idea of
government, which has attained a con
siderable foothold in soma other states,
has broken out in this citv. If it couid
be arranged bo a3 not to be too cum- !
bersome it could only result in a pure ;
democracy a government of the people, j
and would doubtless prove nure satis
factory to the masses. They could Lave
such laws as they might desire and re
fuse such as they might not approve. It
would not be necessary, as under our
present republican form of government,
to wait two years to change a congress
and then have it go contrary tu the
will of the people, as has beau dne by
the present one in relation to the coinage
of silver. With the initiative in force
now the free coinage of silver would not
be long delayed. The 6ystem has been
in operation in Switzerland for sjme
time and is said to have proved very sat
isfactory. The senate bill providing for the de
portation of anarchists has been amended
and passed. Porhaps congress sees now
how much better it would have been to
keep them out altogether, that is, if con
gress sees anything.
Senator Ikbv has gone home to hii
constituents in South Carolina and told

HE SHOT AT THE31.
Lingo Felitz Drives Hires Midnight Vis
itor Awjy With a Oun.
Hugo Felitz is the German who lives
down by the river, just north of tlie city
park, nd rents bathing suits to people
who want to roll arouud in the sand of
the Kaw.
Sunday night he was awakened about
11 o'clock by a loud uoine at his front
door, and as the noise continued, he con
cluded to get up and see what it w as.
Taking his revolver he went to the door
and demanded to know who were there
and what was wanted.
"We are hungry and want something
to eat," replied a voice. Hugo looked
out of the window, and in the pemi-l.ght
saw three meu who seemed to bn pretty
drunk. He ordered them away, but they
continued to try to force the door, fco
LIugo shot a hole ia the door.
This only increased the row and with
curses and threats the fellows again tried
toopen the door by force. Hugo thought
that was enough to make any man mad
so he yanked the door open suddenly
and fired a shot out into the darkness at
the three men. He thinks he must have
hit one of them because they went away
immediately cursing aud swearing ven
geance. It looked to him as they disap
peared in the darkness as if two of them
were half carrying the third. They
went to the north.
In the morning Hugo and a policeman
looked through the woods arouud there
but could find no traces cf the tramps,
for snch they probably were.
Felitz is now afraid th3 fellows will
burn his house over his hea l some night
for revenge and is inviting the neighbors
in to sleep with him a few at a time.

The Rock Island agent was put forward
to sustain Dodge City's credit, and did so
by beating the governor three straight
games. The Dodge City people think
the state central committee had better
give the governor some in-truciions or
he will injure the Populist cause.

PRESIDENT DANTKL G. BRINTOO.
ety. The most eminent scientists of Eng
land, France and Germany, including
Professor Huxley, Sir Archibald Geikie
and Sir John Lubbock, have also been
asked to be present.
The American Association For tho
Advancement of Science has been in ex
istence 4 3 years, and tha researches of it3
members and its public annual deliber
ations have beeivof incalculable benefit to
the cause of scior.ee. The president of tlie
association is Daniel Garrison Brinton,
the eminent ethnologist, who probably
knows as much as any man living about
the division of mankind into race, their
origin, distribution and relations and
the peculiarities which characterize
them. President Brinton was born in
Chester county. Pa., May 13, 1S37. He
was graduated at Yale in 1S53 and at
the Jefferson Medical college in 1861.
After a year of travel in Europe he re
turned to America and entered the Fed
eral army as acting assistant surgeon.
In 13C3 he was commissioned surgeon
and served as surgeon in chief of the
Second division, Eleventh corps. He saw
about all that there was to see of the
hoTrors of war at Chancellorsville, Get
tysburg and other engagements, and in
October of the same year was appointed
medical director of his corps.
At the battle of Gettysburg he re
ceived a sunstroke and was disqualified
from service. lie soon became superin
tendent cf hospitals at Quincy and
Springfield, Ills., and remained on duty
there until the close of the war, when
he was brevetted lieutenant colonel and
discharged After tho war he settled in
Philadelphia, becaiue the editor of a
medical and surgical publication and
has since been a frequent contributor to
the columns of such journals.
Dr. Brinton has for many years been
prominent as a student of and writer on
American ethnology, and the subject
has fascinated him ever since he was a
student in college. In 1S84 he was ap
pointed professor of ethnology and ar
chfeology in the Academy of Natural
Sciences, Philadelphia, and for several
years he has been president of the Nu
mismatic and Antiquarian society of
the Quaker City. Iu 1886 he was elected
vice president of the American Associa
tion For the Advancement of Science,
to preside over the section devoted to
anthropology, and the same year had tho
honor of being the first American
awarded the medal of the SocieteAmer
icaine de France for his numerous eru
dite works on American ethnology.
He has established a library and pub
lishing house of aboriginal American
literature for tlie purpose of placing '
within the reach of scholars authentic !
materials for the study of the languages '
and culture of the Indians of America. !
Each work is the production of a native j
mind and is printed in the original lan- I
guage. Dr. Brinton has also made valu- !
able reports on his investigations of j
mounds, shell heaps, rock inscriptions j
and other evidences of the races that ;
preceded the American Indian and has j
shed much light on these interesting ;
mysteries of early life on this continent. ;
The numerous books he has written on
medical and ethnological subjects make
quite a library in themselves.
It is believed that over 1,000 dele
gates will attend the sessions of the as
sociation in Brooklyn. They will find
pleasure as well as profit awaiting them,
for they will be entertained by excur
eions to Long Branch, Cold Spring Har
bor and West Point.

LIGHTS OF THE LEGAL WORLD""
They Will Shine In Saratoga VThen the
American liar Association Meets.
Barristers, briefless and otherwise
principally the latter will tain shop at
Saratoga Aug. 22 when the seventeenth
annual convention of the Aiae;icuu Bar
association opens that day. The conven
tion will be held in Convention hall,
and the session will begin with an ad
dress by Judge Thomas M. Cooley of
Ann Arbor, Mich., the present president
of the association. The election of mem
bers and the general council and the
reports of officers will follow. In the
evening Hampton L. Carson of Pennsyl
vania will discuss "Great Dissenting
Opinions, " and Charles Claflin Allen
of Mississippi will read a timely and
interesting address on "Injunction and
Organized Labor. "
Moorefield Storey of Massachusetts
will open the second day's session with
an address, and interesting papers will

form state laws, expression and classi
fication of the law, and federal code and
criminal procedure will make their re
ports. At this session the association
will again discuss the great question of
uniform divorce laws.
President Cooley was born in Attica,
N. Y., in 1824. He studied law and
was admitted to the bar of Michigan in
1845. In 1857 he was elected compiler
of the state laws and the following year
became reporter of the supreme court,
lie organized the law department of the
University of Michigan in 1859 and in
1664 was appointed justice of the su
preme court of Michigan and three years
later was made chief justice. In 1885
he sought re-election, but was defeated.
When the interstate commerce com
mission was organized, Judge Cooley's
great reputation as a jurist impelled
President Cleveland to appoint him a
member of the commission, and his as
sociates elected him chairman. Ill
health compelled him to resign in 1891.
Judge Cooley is a very unsentimental
looking man, but he eloped with the
girl who became his wife. Young law
students who appear backward in their
struggles with Blackstone, Kent and
Parsona may find a grain of hope in the
fact that after youne Coolev had been
holding down a chair in a law office for
a year the attorney he was studying
with told him solemnly that he would
never make a lawyer if he studied law
CO years.

JUSTICE GKOVER REPLIES.
II. Kays Be Treated ihe Ilt igrlnt. in Ills
( curl With r ilriirM.
Justice G rover says the petition of
Frank aud Amos Goodman tiled in the
district court is not a fair Btatement of
facts, and offers hia version of the case as
follows:
"George Camp commenced an action
in my court against Frank Goodman and
Taylor Wright to replevin. Mr. Scheuck
was ilr. Goodman's attorney. When the
caee wus called Mr. Schenck and Mr.
Goodman made no appearance and of
fered no testimony; and after some evi
dence being offered by the plaintiff. 1
reudered a judgment in favor of the
plaintiff.
'The defendants Goodman aodWVight
handed in an appeal bond on the
evening of ihe ninth or morning of the
tenth day after the rendition of the judg
ment. During the forenoon, which was
Saturday, Mrs. Grover went to North
Topeka to make inquiry as to the sol
vency of the bondsmen. One of them
not having justified, I became eatisned
the bond was not buUicient.
"In the evening of the tenth day I
went to the place of business of Mr.
Goodman and told him to get a good
bondsman and have him sign the bond
before midnight as it was the last day
and unless he did he would be deprived
of his appeal.
"All these lacts win appear auue inai
I have not intentionally acted oppres
sively or intended to injure the defen
dants in that case. Ot course alter a
