DAYLIGHT BREAKS.


1t is now STATED that ten years more, at the
present rate OF decrease, will wipe out our
public debt entirely. At the close OF the
war the debt hung like dark cloud over the
country, and there were people who made
pretensons Of a knowledge of public affairs,
who thought then there was nothing before
us but reputation. The Republican party
grappled with the giant difficulty a. once,
and its splendid management of the national
finances, amidst all difficulties aud dangers
that surrounded the situation, have brought
the country 10 the point where daylight
breaks through the darkness. Last year the
reduction Of the debt aggregated SOL ,0OO, 900
and during the present fiscal year, it is now
estimated, the total reduction will be at least
l25,0O0,00o. During the first four months
of the fiscal year, the reduction has aggre-
gated Spe,l0g,e0o, pat the cate of SlS, 100, 900
per month. II this rate could be maintained,
1t would aggregate, Tor the flsca! year, $780,
100000. The large receipts for customs and
internal revenue and the rapid decrease in
the annual interest charge accounts for this
reduction in the volume of our debt. In
1865, when the debt reached its highest
poiut, the annual interest charge was SILL
GO0,0J0. On the LIST Of November, instant, it
was S60,962,2 i5 per annum, or about two
fifths of the amount paid in July, 1850. The
FIVE and six per cont. bonds have disappear
ed, and three anda half ana four and a half
per cent. bonds are the only ones outstand-
ing. Within few months it is believed that
the eatire public debt will be refunded in
three and half per cent. bonds. The man-
agement of our national finances has been
the wonder and admiration Of all foreign
countries

IN TIE BEARIs OF MILLIONS.

The EAGLE has been criticised, and se1Gres
ly. for the tenacity with which it sticks for
the Republican organization and its noini-
nees. Some say that in mere local lights we
should not hold so strongly for party. Others
urge that for the sake of this or that propos-
ed reform or change, local organizations
should be for the time ignored. Dear Ke-
publican friends, IL won't do. The Nation
Al party rests upon the State organizations,
the State upon the county, and each county

This L. Not Democratic Rooster
This Is The Mongrel Chicken.
HE IS SICK.

The campaign ending Tuesday night was
the most bitter, personal and acrimonious
ever waged in sedgwick county. Notwith-
standing that fact, but light vote was cast.
This morning there are great many sore
men in the county, but they are not the men
who voted the straight Republican ticket.
The men who voted the Republican ticket
from principle are content. and would have
been even in defeat, because they voted and
fought on principle and not in the interest OF
a gang Of personal aspirants. Those Repub-
iicans who struck at their own principles and
raised their hand against their party upon no
other pretense, and for no other reason than
the howl Of ''ring'' by lot Of fellows whose
whole aim was loaves and fishes, have our
sympathies. We have nothing else to offer.
Those Republicans who cast their vote and
influence against a. good, Is true, and as
honest men as ever lived in the county, and
did so because they credited the word OF a
jobber rather than the evidence of their own
senses and the record of service, who allow
ed themselves TO be driven from the support
OF their political brothers by the unblushing
lies and outrageous calumnies of man who
has done nothing since his settlement in the
county but lay wires whereby he might pull
himself up and other men down, TO get
himself into power and into positions which
he might use for his own benefit, such Re-
publicans are TO be cominiserated. But the
stalwart, straight-out Republicans, who are
Republicans from principle and not from pol
icy, who could not be fooled by loud-mouthed
bowls Of "riug'' against men whose every
day life and record proved to the contrary,
are 70 be congratulated. Since parties were
