George +. Brott, of Louisiana,
and Platt b. Walker, Of Minneapo-
lis, have undertaken to solve the
sawdnst problem by means of a
process for utilizing sawdust as a
portable fuel, for which they have
secured a patent. The process
consists simply in mixing the saw
dust with peat, the latter forming
a cohesive paste, which when dry
results in a solid compound that
cannot he easily fractured, and
can be as easily transported as
wood or coal. Mr.. Brott is now
experimenting the construction at
Philadelphia Of the necessary ma
chinery for the purpose.

The high prices of beef and beef
cattle are attracting universal at.
tention. The highest range known
to the history of the market has
been reached. AT this time last
year the best native cattle sold on
foot at S5 20 to 80 per hundred
weight. This year they command
from sS to sS IS. Last year the
best Texas cattle sold ut 81 70 to
s5, and they were not grass cattle
such as yesterday sold at 20 20 to
81. A country feeder" made
last week $1,000 profit on single
carload of good native steers,
Texas shippers have netted as high
as S2S per head on herds sent to
this market. Tho times seem tC
be very good for the cattle deal
ers, but very bad for the people
who have to buy and pay for the
meat. But while this is true Of st

The Great Strike.
sEAroR McDoNALD's VIEWS.

sEAToR MCDoNALD's VIEWS.
The Indianapolis Evening News |
publishes an interview with ex. !
Senator Mcdonald in regard to
the great strike. Mcdonald says
that he fully agrees with the Hon.
A. 5. Hewitt in his statements
made in the press dispatches at
trihuting the cause of the strike
to the present high tariff. He
says that Mr.. Hewitt is peculiarly
fitted to speak on the subject, for
the reason that he is largely inte-
rested in iron manufacture, and
his convictions were from person
al experience. Mr.. Mcdonald
thought that the country was now
in a position to see clearly the ef- |
feet of high tariff on industries.
The demonstration was positive |
that protection does not protect.
The iron manufactures were es-
pecially concerned in the advocacy
of protection theories. Iron is
doubly protected-frst in an inn
port duty of 100 per cent, and
second by patents on steel rails
owned by companies forming the
American iron and steel associa-
tions; yet the wages of the men
employed in the thirteen mills
owned by them did not rise, not
withstanding the immense profits
+, sulting from the boom in railroad
building during the past two years.
These profits had not Injured to
the benefit of laborers, althouuh
the cost of living had been inerea.
sed in every way. Mr.. Mcdonald
cited an instance developed in a
suit in Philadelphia, which showed
a profit in one mill of 800 per cent.
Mr.. Mcdonald did not think it was
anomalous for men to strike on a
falling market. Great bodies move
slowly. With extraordinary high
prices for all necessaries of life,
and the fact in the face of the
workmen that the profits out OF
their toll by mill owners had been
tremendous, it was rather natural
that they should strike, and strike
hard. He thought tho manufac
turers were in good position to
hold up their end of the fight, foI
the reason that railroad building
had suddenly stopped, and they
would be enabled to dispose of
their surplus stock. The crude
iron which had been going into
steel rails could now be put into
other manufactures; consequently
the end of the strike could not be
predicted. The cause of the high
prices he attributed to q short
crop, and he believed there would
be q revival of business should
the Fall crop be a good one. A
short crop in America and fair
crops in Europe would cut off ex-
port. Coin balances were against
us. Gamblers hold the surplus
product and make quotations.
The prosperity of the country
rested upon the expectation of its
products; and free trade, it was to
be logically concluded, would be a
blessing to the laborer, as insuring
him wages commensurate with the
cost of living, and would be regu.
lated by the natural laws of com.
petition.

1t may be misapprehension
that leads to the reflection that
the subject of the Jewish persecu-
tions in Russia is not alluded to as
much as it was some time ago by
their Hebrew brethren in this
country, but such appears to be
the case. The effect of the land
ing of few cargoes at the Atlantic
ports seems to have put sudden
quietus upon the demand for funds
to enable them to escape from
their Russian oppressors. In fact,
the Russian Jews arc not wanted
by their brethren in the United
States. 1t will require too much
to put them in a way to stand on
their own feet and become assimi-
lated.

UNION VETERAN CORPS.

COMRADES AT the last reunion of the
Veteran Corps you saw fit to honor me as
your choice for commanding officer. After
mature deliberation, l have concluded to
tender my resignation. We have post OF
the Grand Army Of the Republic at Wichita.
which needs the hearty cooperation of every
old soldier worthy of the name. All the
good that could be accomplished by the
U. c. can thrice over be administered
through the operations OF the G. A. Il. The
former is of no real benefit to the veteran.
1t can not aid him in sickness, give him SOL
dier's burial when he is dead, nor aid and
comfort to his distressed widow and orphans
The G.. A. X. can do all this. The State re-
union of veterans will be held in September
under the auspices of the various rosts Of
the G.. A. r. 1t promises to be the grandest
event in the history of the State. 1t is inn
portant that our post should represent the
soldier interest of Scdgwick county. There
fore l would respectfully recommend that
the U. V. C. disband, and all who desire to
perpetuate an organization of old soldiers,
national in its character, at once apply for
membership in the G.. A. II. As an induce
ment will state that Garfield Post has re-
duced its initiation fee for brief time from
$500 to S1.00. Don't wait until the limit
has expired. Very respectfully,

o! CONSISTENCY.

The author Of the saying, 20 . consistency,
thou art jewel" may have been a cotempo-
raTy of JOB or Pitiaeus, but the brethren
that rcmaineth who can .'straiD at gnat and
swallow camel" are multitudinous. On
Monday we overheard a prominent repre-
sentative OF the later stripe criticising the
fact of dramatic presentation being given
in behalf of a church enterprise. That same
night that same man paid his money TO wit
ness dramatic representation in a church,
aud he applauded the characterization. The
one performance was Oh a stage OF foot-lights
and side scenery, but in ordinary dress; the
other performance was in church pulpit,
with kerosene lamps for foot-lights to ilu-
inmate rich and magnificent stage costume
oraamented with diamonds. There was no
essential difference in the two entertain
ments, in fact and in truth they were in es-
sence Que aud the same. Our Inconsistent
friend said of the latter alt was all right -
and, it was. OF the first he said: sit was
all wrong" and, 1t wasn't. 1t is he that is
wrong in his narrow prejudices.

The reunion and banquet given by the Mt.

this city, last Wednesday, will long be re-
membered l'y participants and guests. The
rich trappings fine uniforms, nodding pumes.
waving banners and stirring music of the
Sir Knights marches, the brilliant assem-
blage at the Opera House, the decorations
and the banquet, would take columns TO mi
nutely describe. But better than all was the
evident fraternal feeling among the member
ship and the happiness of the guests. Not
one word of complaint was heard. The
guests arriving on the various trains were
met at the depot by the Sir Knights in full
uniform attended by brass band and es-
corted to their hotels. The day was beauti-
ful--al thai could be desired, and the night
quiet, mooDlt aud pleasant. Many of our
more enterprisirg merchants had decorated
their establishments with the emblems and
colors of the order so that it seemed 4 kind

hundreds of beautiful forms moved to It's

dy participants, we should fail in a descrip-
ton, therefore we shall not attemptit. There
were exceedingly rich and bewitching toi
lets. robes of the richest texture, trimmed
with the most delicate faces, composed Of the
most harmonious coiOrs and made up in the
highest style of the art and good taste. There
were dresses. and not few in number. that
would have graced any social fcte OF the
country, and as they were worn by our wives
and daughters, and lady frien IS OF adjoining
towns, are we not all satisfied.
The drill, or eKolutions. given by lie Sir
Knights under the direction Of Captain Gen
eral w. 5. Corbeit headed by Eminent Com
mander j. II. Allen. upon the floor Of the OPP
era House, was very fine, eliei;ing much ap-
plause. The banquet, which was opened at
an early hour and continued at the pleasure
of the guests until past o'clock, WAS served
in an upper hall.
The many visiting guests departed for their
homes by the early trains next morning, all
warm in their praises of the party and the
social measures cuioyed.

CUR EDUCATIONAL FUTURE.

The necessity for higher educational faci-
titles Tor this city will hardly be questioned
by any competent obscr er. Wichita is the
central town for Il large scope of country,
the most accessible point OF any pretentions
for an hundred thousand people. Her city
schools are all that could be reasonably de-
sired, so far as radimentary instruction and
development are concerned. yet gradua-
ton from the highest grade finds the scholar
but prepared 10 enter the fields Of liberal
culture. Our board of trade being eognizant
OF the fact of the preemiDent fitness of this
point seat OF learning, that at no other
point could so many youth be cared for, and
that, in very short time, ia the absence Of
facilities for higher training, many Of our
youth must. of necessity, be sent away
from home, a committee Of gentlemen were
appointed TO consider the matter and to
submit a proposition, embracing some plan
or ideas looking TO the establishment of an
institution of learning in Wichita. The
committee has bad one session. They are con-
WINGED that our present school rooms are
already crowded. aud il not relieved soon by
the provision of other facilities in u short
time. new and more extensive public school
buildings will be necessary. They further
agreed that an academy. college or normal
school, or an institution embracing the
practical and useful Of the curricui4.n. OF
such schools, maintained by tuition fees,
would be not only largely supported by our
own citizens, but would, in marked degree,
relieve the present oyer-crowded condition
of the public school rooms. A sub-commit-
tee, consisting OF the chairman. the editor
of the EAGLE. Hon. j. r. Mead and GOV. A.
A. CT M. were instructed TO draw up a
proposition TO be submitted to the full COM
n,ittee and to the board of trade.

Wichita Mound Nursery.

The Wichita Mound nursery is better pre-
pared than ever before TO furnish home
grown stock. And farmers make great mis-
take when they purchase fruit trees from
agents of foreign nurseries, when they can
buy home grown trees from first-class nur-
sery, and responsible firm. The death OF
}. II. Sturns, who has been at the head OF
the Mound nursery, will make no difference
in the future conduct OF the business, IS II
will be conducted by brother, who has, in
fact, superintendent it for several years.
Then don't be misled by travelling fruit tree
peddlers Of foreign high-sounding named
nurseries, who carry around specimens OF
fruit in magnifyins glass bottles, but buy
your trees from the Mound nursery, which
you can select yourself, and plant the same
day they are taken up. and are warranted

PINE EYE.

The so-called pink eye has got pretty
strong hold among the horses of this city
Hardly stable is free Of the disease. In
the majority of cases it amounts to but little
but several horses have been very sick.
Hardly any two animals are affected alike,
Some horses lose their appetite while others
do not. With some it causes all the symp-
toms of an influenza, or of pneumonia, while
with others the limbs swell, or the throat is
very sore. No horses have died in the city
from the disease that we are aware Of. The
EAGLE has already printed directions for
treatment, but We might add that the horse
men say good care, mash or other light feed,
and avoidance of cold drafts of air is sufii-
cient treatment. We fear the disease viii

OUR VALLEY CENTER FOLKS.

Our Valley Center friends did themselves
proud in their amateur rendition at the Opera
House last Friday night. Each drapiatis
persona seemed to enter into the full spirit
of the drama which so wildly portrays the
sorrows that are found 10 the contents of the
intoxicating cup. Many scenes were remark
ably life-life and graphic, and touching was
the scene of little Mary's death. But all the
scenes were rendered according to their spir.
il and intent, receiving the heartiest approx
al. There was nothing in the representa-
ton that could possibly offend the most pref.
udiced. We have no room for detailed re
port, and the personnel Of the presentation
was published two weeks since. The house
was larger than is usual for home talent and
was made up Of our best citizens. We con.
graduate the Center on her triumph.
