United States Senator Joseph Ralph Burton of Kansas, who was found guilty of using his official position to protect a fraudulent concern In Its use of the malls, has been prominent in the Sunflower state for years as a politician and campaign orator.

He waa, first of all, of course, a poet, and while some poems have to achieve greatness hla poetical productions had greatness thrum upon them. Homer nods and so does Sir Edwin, but he also scintillates, and those w ho have devotedly follow eJ the trail of hla poetic genius bavo gathered perhaps aa many pearls of thought as have been strewn by any other poet of hla era. It will be a long time before "The Light of Asia, "With Sadi In the Garden and Japonic a" are consigned to that limbo to which the advancing materialism of the race has sentenced all poetry. As Sir Edwin was long a resident of Japan, and married a Japanese wife and was peifectly united in heart to that laud and nation, it is a pathetic feature of his death that be should pass away Just as Japan is about to realize his fond and insistent prophecy Lady Arnold. that vht! would take rank with the Japanese Widow of Hlr Edwin Arnold Oxford, Icing a prizeman there In most progressive, tivlllaed and power1803. lie became master of King Edful nations on the globe. ward's school at Birmingham In 1801 and remained there until 1806.

Joseph Ralph Burton, senior United States Senator from Kansas and a political leader of wide Influence throughout the West, was convicted by a Jury in the United States District Court at SL Louis March 29 of accepting compensation to protect the interests of the Rialto Grain A Securities Company, a concern," before the Postoffice Department at Washington. Tbe Senator was found guilty on six of tbs seven counts in the indictment On the other count, the third one, a verdict of not guilty was returned. This third count la similar In charge to that of counts one and two. and for this reason the government announced at the beginning of the trial that it did not desire any conviction. The court ruled that the Senator's bond of $5,000 be continued, and that the defendant report from time to time pending arguments on the motion for arrest of Judgment and other legal steps taken prior to the appeal to the United States Court of Appeals. The case establishes the precedent of a prosecution under section 1782 of the revised statutes of the United States, which prohibits members of Congress from accepting compensation for their services In any case which Involves the Interest of the federal government Senator Burtons recourse Is aa appeal to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals, which body Is the final arbiter of hla case. Pending tbe final action of that tribunal he may give bond and obtain temporary freedom. In the course of the trial It developed that during his term of office Senator Burton had a total Income from at Washington hla law practice amounting to nearly $25,000 a year. Tbe evidence adduced against Senator Bmion may be summarized aa follows : First In November. 1902, he accepted a proposition to become general counsel of the Rlato Grain A Securities Company, a concern whose operations at the time were under the scrutiny of postoffico officials. Socond Burton demarded $2,500 for his services, but he wss satisfied to be paid In monthly Installments of $500 each. Third Soon after his employment It developed that the federal grand Jury wns investigating the Brooks Brokerage Company, with which Major Hugh of the Rialto C. Dennis, president Company, has been associated. Fourth In December, 1902, Dennis was indicted; appealed to Burton for help. Fifth Numerous letters written by Burton showed that the Senator was using his influence to prevent the of a fraud order agatnBt tie Rialto Grain A Securities Company. Sixth Burton submitted regular reports to the Rialto people telling tueiti how matters were progressing si Washington, advising them of reports filed at the Postoffico Department and closlrg with the assurance that If you look after things at your end of the line I will attend to matters here."
