State Government of Kansas.
The Territory of Kansas remained unorganized and almost unpeopled until the 30th of May, 1851, when President Pierce signed the famous Kansas-Nebraska bill, organizing the Territories of Kansas and Nebraska. In July, 1859, the Constitutional Convention met in Wyandotte, and on the 29th of July signed the "Wyandotte Constitution." This was ratified by the people in October of the same year, but it was not, however, until January 29, 1861, that President Buchanan signed the act of Congress admitting Kansas under the Wyandotte Constitution ; and then her existence as a State legally began.
The State of Kansas includes an area of 82,080 square miles, or 52,531,200 acres, and is larger than the whole of the New England States and Delaware and Maryland added; equal to North and South Carolina combined, and is twice as large as Ohio. According to the United States census, taken in 1860, the population was 107,206; in 1870, 364,399 ; In 1880, 996,096; in 1890, 1,427,096; and the estimated population at this time, May 1, 1899, is about 1,500,000.

Qualification of Voters. Citizens of the United States or aliens who have declared their intention. Previous residence required in State, six months, and in county, town or pre- cinct, 30 days. Persons excluded from suffrage: felons, iusaue, felons not restored to citizen- ship. Australian Ballot Law is in force.
ELECTIONS.
Elections are held on the Tuesday next succeeding the first Monday in November, in each year. The Governor, Secretary, Treasurer, Auditor, Attorney General, Superintendent of Public Instruction and members of the House of Representatives are elected in the even year, for a term of two years. State Senators are elected every four years. Judges of the Supreme court are elected in the even years for a term of six years, one being elected every two years. The State Printer is elected every two years, by joint ballot of the Legislature; and United States Senators are elected in like manner for a term of six years. A State Superintendent of Insurance is appointed by the Governor, by and with the approval of the Senate, once in four years, his term commencing in July after his appointment.
The gubernatorial term commences on the second Monday in January, following the elec- tion ; and regular sessions of the Legislature are held biennially, commencing on the second Tuesday in January, in the odd years.
Elections for one-half the county officers are held in the even years ; the other half in the odd years.
LEGAL HOLIDAYS.
There are only three legal holidays authorized or recognized by law in this State, and they are as follows: DECORATION DAY, 30th May, was made a legal holiday by chapter 125, Laws of 1886, (General Statutes of 1889, paragraph 3251.) LABOR DAY, the first Monday in Septem ber, was made a legal holiday by chapter 145 of the Laws of 1891. WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY, February 22d, was made a legal holiday by chapter 161, Laws of 1895. It is a popular notion or belief that New- Year Day, January 1, Independence Day, July 4, Thanksgiving Day, as fixed annually by the President or Governor, Christmas Day, December 25, and Arbor Day, in April, are legal holidays; but the Legislature of Kansas has never declared any or either of said days to be legal holidays. The section which stands as paragraph 481 of the General Statutes of 1889, in the act relating to bonds, bills, and promissory notes, was first enacted in 1868 as it now stands, except that in 1870, by chapter 37, the word "preceding" was substituted for "suc- ceeding" next before the words "business day"; but this section applies to all Sundays as well as to the other days named, and simply regulates the time at which "days of grace" allowed on commercial paper shall expire; but Sundays have never been declared or even recognized as legal holidays, and the section referred to does not declare any or either of the days named to be a legal holiday.
