One Kansas Judge Dies Not Take Passes Says Waters
Joseph G Waters argues in State Journal that judges should stop taking railroad passes. He cites January 1894 cases where judges set aside railroad judgments and later acted for the railroad, noting a judge with a pass who travels with a railway attorney. Waters lauds Judge Spillman of Manhattan for never using a pass in twelve years and calls for reform.

Ohio Democrats Back Free Wool and Direct Senate Vote
The Democratic state convention at Cleveland opened with Hon. Frank Hurd of Toledo as temporary chair. He praised Grover Cleveland and Carlisle, opposed the American Protective Association, and backed tariff reform and silver coinage. A debate on electing U.S. senators by the people ended with a majority approving direct election, while a minority favored gold silver coinage. The Brice issue loomed as leaders clashed, and efforts to censuring Brice were avoided by procedural defeat.
