14 "A Kansaa Honsa of Bepresentatives. Of the 125 members of the incoming house, forty have had previous service in the legislature of the state. The sixteen counties of Cheyenne, Grant, Gray, Greeley, Haskell, Kearney, Kiowa, Lane, Logan, Scott, Seward, Sher man, Stanton, Stevens, Wallace and Wiohita are for the first time represented in the house, and of the 106 counties in the state, only those of Garfield and Morton will be without actual representatives. The vote of Garfield at the late election was 171, and Morton polled 185 votes. Our republican friends are rejoicing over their gratifying gain that they im agine they have made in this great commonwealth; but going back to the year when the present national chief ex ecutive was elected, it might be in order to call attention to the remnant of "the grand old party" in Kansas, that, as compared with their majorities on repre sentatives this year with what they had in 1888, their loss in Doniphan county is 81; in Nemaha, 365; in Jackson, 401; in Jefferson, 665; in Pottawatomie, 946; in Allen, 215; in Anderson, 331; in Linn, 394; in Bourbon, 997; in Neosho, 273; in Elk, 312; in Wilson, 381; in Cherokee, 974; in Crawford, 995; in Marion and Morris, the loss in each is 493; in Wa baunsee, 575; in Greenwood, 882; in Lyon, 1,133; in Osage, 1,340; in Shawnee, 2,395; in Dickinson, 280; in Geary, 440; in Clay, 495; in Ottawa, 496; in Riley, 500; in Republic, 701; in Saline, 747; in Washington, 1,372; in Thomas, 283; in Rooks, 411; in Jewell, 428; in Lincoln, 504; in Sheridan, 698; in Decatur, 711; in Phillips, 756; in Osborne, 1,074; in Ness, 412; in Reno, 453; in Barber, 486; in Mc pherson, 555; in Pawnee, 620; in Rice, 756; in Sedgwick, 1,443. j In the ninety counties in which they elected 120 representatives in 1888, they come out of their arduous campaign of j 1892 with a half hundred certificates from the returning board.fand the majority for several of these is very meager. In the state senate, the republicans are in a minority of 6,350 on the popular vote, and they succeed in obtaining fifteen senators, where, in 1888, they elected thirty-nine out of the forty mem bers. But how they boast How to light Trusts. When Senator Edmunds reported the Sherman anti-trust law from the judi ciary committee in 1890, he told the sen ate that, unless the trusts were checked, it was only wa question of time when, between tyranny of capital on one side and labor on the other, there would be no liberty for the people worth the name." That the trusts have been mul tiplying like rabbits, and that Mr. Ed munds' party has done nothing to exterminate them is generally under stood. Attorney General Miller told the house of representatives that he wss not aware that there was an anthracite com bination. A congressional committee is at work on the coal combine, to be sure, but the publio has long discounted these junketing tours of legislators. The man to move is Attorney General Miller. MDont you regulate the supply of coal?" asked a number of the committee of President MoLeod, of the Reading road, last week, and he replied: " We exercise an intelligent restriction." So do all of the trusts in the list which was printed in the New Nation last week. Attorney General Miller evidently B0Q8 nothing wrong in this 44 intelligent restriction " of production, however much the consumer may feel the effects of it when he comes to pay his bills. Our prediction is that Mr. Cleveland's attorney general will prove to be quite as silent upon this point of "intelligent restriction M aa Mr. Miller himself. And the reason is that lawyers understand that the anti-Sherman law cannot break the power of the trusts. We see no way to reach this armed camp of commerce except through an unmistakable sentiment among the people in favor of applying public own ership to break a monopoly. -New Na tion, December 3.
