THE CAMP MEETING.

The temperance camp meeting, to be-
gin at Bismark Grove, this week, will
undoubtedly be one ofthc most interest
ing outdoor meetings ever held in the
West, and, judging from present indi-
cations, will be attended by many
thousands of people, coming from all
parts Of tho country. The new taber-
nacle, capable of seating six thousand
persons. and with speakers stand and
platform to accommodate three hundred
singers. is now finished and ready for
the meeting. Francis Murphy, the
great temperance apostle. will be pres
ent throughout the meeting, as will al
SO large number other eminent work
crs in the temperance cause. We clip
the following paragraph from the advr-
tised programme:
Grand concerts on stated evenings
during the meeting have been arranged
for as follows: Sunday evening, Au-
gust Goth, Grand Vocal aud instrument
tal Concert, mt which some of the best
musical talent in the Union will partici-
pate, together with a choir of three
hundred singers and seven cornet bands
of music. And one of the attractive
features of this concert will be a grand
anvil and canon chorus. Thursday eve
ming, August 2lst. Grand Vocal and In
strumental Concert by the faculty and
pupils Of the Kansas and Missouri Con-
scryatories of Music. ut which selections
from Haydn's Creation, Handers Mes
siah, Ros.ni's Stabat Mater, and other
vocal and instrumental gems will be
rendered. Sunday evening, August "a,
Grand Gospel Temperance Concert.

THE NEW CITY ON DOG CREEK.

To he Editor Of the Eagle:
MULvANE, August IL, 1879.
l suppose there is not a man in ali
Kansas that win beerudge the farmers
around this place the bright prospects
which now cheer them. 'Twenty-miles-
from-no- place" has heretofore been the
phrase applied 10 the country around
Mulvane. Look at your map and put
your finger one mile east Of where the
county line between Sedgwick and
Sumner county crosses the Great Ar
kansas river and you have the junction
of the COwley, Sumner and Fort Smith
railroad, and the future great city of
Mulvane. Round it lies nine hundred
square miles of the choicest corn land in
Kansas. The railroad company will
commence this week the erection of a
fine depot, and a round house will be
built of rock from the famous quarries
of Cowley county. Our live p. NJ. at
Littleton, James Brow n, is the first man
on the site of the future city, and is
building storehOuse 24y50 feet. Zap
Crawford has commenced the erection
of large hotel. Rentz Williams is
erecting blacksmith shop, and large
number of lots were sold last week to be
occupied Immediately by houses. The
writer has contracted for five acres one
half mile east of the center of the town,
on an elevation overlooking the town
and the county southwark TO the Emit
of vision. 1t is to be put in fine shape,
and is TO be the home of our upright
Judge, w. p. Campbell. T. b. Murdoch
will please take notice that the E.
dorado railroad is to be extended by
the way of Douglass to Mulvane.

THE STATE NORMAL.


DIR. c. X. Pome,y has rendered his
resignation as President of the State
Normal School, located at EmpOria. DIR.
Pomeroy is one of the finest educators
and controllers Of youth that ever serv-
ed State institution. For five years
he has been devoiiug his entire time and
talents in perfecting himself IN the nor
NAL system, but the eternal racket and
jcalOusies of the people of the town in
which the school is located proved too
much for him. as it had for Others who
preceded him. The loss of annual APP
preparations is traceable directly to the
same source, and the Regency have
feared that the endowment and location
would 20 next. In face of the la,c de-
falcation by citizen of that piece and
the disposition evinccd by the last Leg
islature not to grant rebuilding funds,
but TO transfer the whole endowment to
some other point or institution. that
Emporia should call mass meetings and
organize fights against Faculty and
Regency is inexplicable TO us. There is
no reason why the State Normal School
of Kansas should not rank among the
most successful educational institutions
of the west, as it should and would have
been long ere this but for the unsecmly
strife and antagOnism TO which its Fac
ulty and Directory has for years been
subjected. A new President and Facul-
~ win be added 10 the Board next
week, and may Providence send appli-
cants only of great fortitude and back
bone, for these they will need. as well
as the possession of every other cardi-
nal vir;ae. DIR. Pomeroy leaves the
State in possession of the full confidcnce
Of the Regency, aud the respect and es-
TEEN of all the leading educators of
Kansas.

NO FLOP HERE.

A correspondent of the National
Monitor intimates pretty broadly that
the EAGLE is on the eve of flop over
to the Greenbackers. There is no ne
cessity for such action as we Topped
over to that side long before many of
the now most rampant Grceabackcrs
had given the question a serious
thought. If the writer means that there
is any likelihood of the EAGLE taking
the foolish fat flop, he is still further
astray. The most Of our readers are
well posted as to the financial beliefs Of
the EAGLE. We are for grcenbacks-
the greatest possible volume commen-
surable with resumption or redemption,
but we want no greenback or paper
money of any kind that is not good in
all commercial channels from Singapore
or 4 australia westward TO San Francis
co. Nor do we want any greenbacks or
paper Honey based upon some barren
ideality of the Nations aggregated
wealth or the country's presumable
credit.
While upon this question of currency
and its volume, we will gay that it would
entirely accord with our convictions if
for the millions of silver now piled up in
the treasury and for all coin or bullion
hereafter to be deposited, silver cer;'ti-
Gates, or in other words paper money
of promises TO pay silver dollars on de-
ma nd, were issued. That would large
" increase the circulating medium Of
the country and not compel ihe people
to handle The bulky silver; besides, such
increased circulation would be just as
good as our greenbacks or bonds, for
what it called for would be laying in
the treasury ready for every demand

A district Sunday School Convention,
embracing three tow nsbips in Sedgwick
aud three in Sumner. was held in Bev-
erly schoolhouse last Sabbath, which
was well attended and quite interesting.
The various themes of discussion were
wei, spoken on and general harmony
prevailed excepting on the question,
namely, the day of the week on which
the next convention is to he held. A
part being in favor Of meeting on Thurs
day and another part being in favor Of
meeting on Sabbath. The former urged
that meeting on the Sabbath discon-
crted all the regular arrangements Of the
day schools, scattered the Sabbath
schools, lost the benefit Of the lnterna-
iionai Lesson, disappointed ministers of
the gospel and their congregations, etc..
and that holding the convention on
week day would have all the benefits of
the meeting without any of lis evils.
The other side took the ground that
holding the meeting on Sabbath would
insure a large attendance and as a result,
be more profitable and interesting.

| To tie Editor Of Ike Eagle:
In looking over my last EAGLE my
eyes fell upon that Louisville Journal
letter. purporting to come from the pen
of one 4. w. Grisman, whose name
should be gristmill and noted for grind
Ing out the most infamous and unbolted
lics. to which alone he could be the faith

But will treat to the beer any one who
will point him out to me, for | have

anime his physiognomy for myselfw

ty and deception. Iwould suggest that
he be drummed out of the country be-
fore well-strung band of mop sticks,

l am trying to convince that he is mis-
taken. or else he must be total fool or
an esteemed liar.
There is another matter 10 which l
want 10 refer. and that is the letter from
Waco. in which the writer refers TO the
members of the county central commit
tee as ha, ing ouilivcd their usefulness.
IL this be so, they must then be fit can

Is KANSAS A FRAUD2

A copy of the Louisville Courier
Jouyna. came to us few days ago with
the following article marked, which
purports to have been written by far
mer near Wichita, and which appears in
the Courier-you,mal. Now, we are
COW inced that this fellow Grisman is
an idiot or scoundrel. No man but
an idiot could travel over Kansas and
form such an opinion of it, and none but
a consummate scoundrel would ever set
his name to such an infamous article as
this was. That portions of Kansas has
been extolled some above its me. its,
no true kansan will deny, but that the
State is fraud, and Il t any portion Of
the article is true, not an honest man in
the State will admit. There is not one
county in the State that has had no rain
for eight months, as the writer states.
He writes from Wichita and says they
haven't had any rain in eight months,
which we know to our own knowledge
20 be as false as he says the glowing
pictures Of Kansas are. But then, in
his great desire to do Kansas harm, he
has overlooked some little inconsistent
cies in his story. In one sentence he
complains of drOuth and in the next of
