The Chilly Areas,
The Boston Dictatorship.

The Boston Co1lec1orSn1p.
| There were so many elements In the
contest over the removal Of Simmons from
the dictatorship of the port of Boston
that if it were worth while it would not be
easy to gather from the Presidents action
what particular alliance or the choice of
what particular line of policy it indicates.
Simmons was originally appointed as a
young Christian soldier" in spite of
which he was regarded as protege of Ben
| Butler. The respectable politicians of
Massachusetts. evidently thinking Ben
Butler had more to do with the appoint
ment than Christianity. were scandalized
at his selection. 1t is generally admitted,
however, that he made a good collector,
and he was so confident in his official rec
ord and in the merits of his active cam.
paign for Governor Rice last fall, when he
secured from Attorney General Devens a
sort of modification of the Presidents
celebrated order forbidding Federal Office
holders from taking an active part in elec-
tons, that he supposed his reappointment
a foregone conclusion There is reason to
believe, Notwithstanding the fact that
Butler still favored him, that the mass of
Boston merchants and many respectable
party leaders like Governor Rice had be-
come thoroughly reconciled to him by his
administration, while it is reported that
Secretary Sherman has recently spoken of
his reappointment as a matter of course.
Senator Dawes and Hoar, however, were
his inveterate enemies, and as they are
among the few Republicans in Congress
who have stood by President Hayes on
every occasion, their influence was decisive
Were it not for the scandal attending the
original appointment of Simmons, and for
bis connection with Butler, his removal
might be taken to be weak concession to
the senators of state of the right TO con-
troll Federal patronage in the state, and
therefore like surrender of the President
to Conkling. AS the case stands the re-
moval may be regarded merely as special
favor shown to staunch allies. The resul,
will doubtless be somewhat damaging
to the harmony and efficiency OF
the Republican organization in Massa-
chusetts. Ben Butler threatens to appeal
from the President to the party caucus,
where his Senatorial opponents will natur-
ally dislike to meet Kim. On the whole
the outlook is promising for an interesting
faction fight; and We can only hope mean
while that the new Collector may turn out
an honest man and a good officer-N. y

What Will BE do About IT.

Judge Peters having allowed him.
self to become the tool of a few sore.
heads in his district, and one or two
ambitious men outside, who desire his
success only that they may use him for
their own advancement, we ask him
what he is going to do with the Con.
stitution, which says he shall hold no
office for the time for which he
was elected Judge? One Judge in
this State, who, when asked two years
ago to do the thing now being attempt
ed by Judge Peters said to the COM
mittee, mop adding, "no honorable
occupant of the bench could consent
to such course" Here are the words
of the Constitution, being Sec. Is, Art
5, which read as follows:
"And such Justices or Judges shall
receive no fees or perquisites, or
hold any other Office of profit or trust
under authority of the State or United
States during the term of Office for
which such Justices or Judges shall
be elected"
The term of Office for which Judge
Peters was elected was four years, and
it will not expire until January /,
1880, more than year after the Con-
gressional election.
The probabilities are that the DEM
ocratic House would throw Mr.Peters
out under our own Constitution and
admit the man voted for by the DEM
ocrats.

Judge Samuel Peters came down to
Wichita last week and spent a day.
The next day, accompanied by Judge
Campbell, he departed in buggy for
the south. If any member of the bar
of either district, or any citizen, should
have an urgent matter to bring be-
fore their : spective Judges they will
know W &C Q to iiud them. Tho Con-
stitution says in plain words that a
Judge shall not hold any other Office
during the time for which he was
elected, but of course the Constitution
don't prohibit our Judges from sacri-
ficing themselves for the good of the
country at large BY scouting around
in the h.t sun, from precinct to pre-
cinct, to pledge delegates to defeat a
good, honest and true man, who has
done his whole duty as Congressman,
and against whom these worthless who
have been themselves so highly hon
ored by the people cannot say truth
fully a single word.

A Little Cheeky.

Harvey county's appeal to Sedg.
wick to stand by Peters for Congress
on the ground of sisterly affection
and community of interest is little
cheeky. Peters is a nice man One
might go further and admit that he is
a good man; even say that we hall
believe him an able man; but before
we are asked to support her man for
Congress we would suggest that Har-
vey pay over to Sedgwick about sixty
five thousand dollars which she hon.
estiy owes. Another thing: Judge
Peters friends in Newton must have
been looking forward TO our support
last spring when they flocked to every
train to dissuade travel from coming
to Wichita ''where every body was
dying of the small pox." Oh, yes,
certainly, we're all for Peters.

Ssdgwick County Farmers Moving for thsil
Rights.

Following two or three articles that
appeared in the EAGLE this spring,
calling attention of our businessmen
to the abuses that had obtained and
outrages that had been INDUCED in in
connection with the purchase, classifi-
cation, weighing and shipment of
grain offered in this market, and urg'
ing the organization of Board Of
Trade, or some kind of an association
for its legal control, convention OF
farmers was called through these col.
umns. That convention met last Sat
urday, and the official proceedings are
published elsewhere. They speak for
themselves. The meeting was not
only respectable as to numbers, but
earnest in its action. No loud threats
were INDUCED in, no brag and buster
countenanced !; but the determination
of the representative producers pres
ent was as plain as the noses on their
faces. The EAGLE started out with the
full intention of awakening both town
and country to this vital subject. The
City Council talked over the matter a
little. the Mayor declared openly that
it was in the right, the merchants
held several meetings thoroughly can
wasting the whole grounds, culminat-
ing in legal organization last Satur-
day night. But after all it has the
most hope from the action of the
farmers, who are the most directly in
terested, although the matter very
nearly concerns every merchant and
mechanic in the city. Now that we
have got thoroughly aroused let us
make the work efiectual. There should
be no letting up until every farmer in
this valley knows that whenever be
brings his wheat, hogs or corn to this
market, that he is going to get just
classification, honest weight, and the
full market price. The EAGLE having

From the Mound City Clarion.
On the 18th of May, 1878, we ad-
dressed note to Senator ingalls, pro-
pounding some questions in order to
ascertain how he stood on the ques-
lions Ct finance on which he had not
made record by vote or speech, in
order that we might be able to cor
rectly represent him when speaking of
him as candidate for reelection to
the United States Senate. The follow
ing letter speaks tor itself and places
him squarely on the platform of the
people of the State and against the
continued fostering of the money pow

dun:
s'WAsHINaToN, June rs, 1873.
"MY DEAR SIR: When your letter
of May 18th was received 1 expected
to have made another speech upon f.
nancial questions, which would have
answeied your questions in regard to
my views upon pending measures {:
but as time was brief it was thought
best to vote rather than talk, and thus
my reply has been deferred till now.
During the term of Congress just
closed l have voted:
''First. For the coinage of the silver
dollar.
Second. To forbid further contrae-
ton of the currency.
"Third. To make United States le-
gal tender notes receivable at their
face value for the new four per cent.
coin bonds.
'sFourth. The payment of custom
dues in United States legal tender
notes at par.
"The two first measures have be-
come law. The two last would have
been adopted had it not been for the
opposition of Mr.. Ewing in the House
of Representatives. The result would
have been the immediate entrance of
the boarded up gold and silver of the
country into its circulation. giving US
a volume of coin and paper equivalent
in value and amounting liz the aggrc
gate to not less than one thousand
million dollars.
The practical question remaining
undetermined is. the substitution of
United States Treasury notes for the
National Bank currency. OF the wise
dom and justice Of this measure Their
can be no doubt. The withdrawal of
the bank notes and the issue of green
backs to an equal amount would en-
able the Government to retire the
bonds held by the banks and thus save
the payment of one million dollars Of
interest annually. There are many
other obvious reasons to which | need
not here refer. Very sincerely yours,
