The hotel clerk IL q young man who
was originally created to fill an empef-
or's throne or adorn q dukedOm, but
when he grew up, there being fewer
thrones and doms than there were
emperors and dukes, he was temper
arily forced to take . position behind
a hotel register His chief character
istics are dignity Of bearing, radiant
gorpeousness of apparel, haughtiness
Of manner, and jewelry. His princi-
raj duties consist in hammering on
the call-bell, In handing guests the
wrong keys to their rooms. and keep
ing a supply of tooth-picks on the end
of the desk. When all his time is not
taken up with the performance Of these
arduOus duties, he will condescend to
explain to a guest that he does not
know whether the nOrth-bound train
leaves at 8 p. NJ. or not, and II the guest
insists on enticing further information
out of him, he will probably hand him
a last years official railroad time table.
No matter how crowded hotel Is, the
hotel clerk always finds one room left
for the late arrival. When the latter
kicks about II when he Is leaving next
day, because it was on the fifth floor
and Was furnished with q bed, q bar
of soap, and q crack in the ceiling, the
clerk tells him that II he had been
STAYING another day he could have
had AN excellent room, In fact the best
room in the house, which would be
vacated after breakfast by q gentleman
who was leaving on the noon train.
To our CERTAIN knowledge the gentle
man has been leaving that excellent
that "best room in the house" every
tomorrow for the last twenty years

COL. PHILLIPS NOT A CANDIDATE FoR

1t is with regret we are COM
PEELED to announce this week that
Col Phillips has decided not to be a

At the solicitation of friends the Col

make canvass for the position; but
owing to the press of his business I'm

slant and unrem lifting. attention. he
has decided that he cannot afferd TO
enter into the canvass this year. We
are authorized by the Colonel to make
this announcement public and return
thanks to the friends who have: 90
warmly and enthusiastically pressed
his claims.
We have had faith from the time the
Coionels name was first mentioned in
connection with the candidacy for
this Office that his chances for Domi-
nation to one of the Congressman-at-
Large positions were better than any
other gentleman running, provided
he should he able to return to Kansns
and visit the various portions of the
State. We thought this, without any
intention of disparaging the claims to
strength of any other gentleman who
Is candidate. We were strongly i'm
pressed with the belief that his abili-
ties and splendid service in Congress
If properly presented-were almost
a guarantee of success. While i'm
Congress the Colonel made such n
record as to rapidly advance him TO
the front rank of his compecrs. He
was attaining a reputation national
In its character, and had ALREADY been
pronounced the best Representative
X snsas ever had.
We say again we regret very
much that the Colonel has declined
being a candidate, for Kansas will
thus lose the services of an able and
industrious public. servant.

The FLIGHT Of Time,

Twenty-one years ago, the war of
the Rebellion began, and Abraham
Lincoln called for seventy-five thou
sand troops. Twenty-one years ago
the young men were enlisting under
the starry ensign Of the Republic and
marching to the front TO do or die, for
the unity of the States. 1t seems but
yesterday that they marched to the
music of the wild fife, and took the
train for the sunny South. But,
though seemingly short time, many
years have flown since then. The
war is over, and those who were
young men then are middle-aged now.
They are married, and have sons who
are grown, and to-day, under the
bright sky of peace, the fathers who
fought and their sons go together and
buy their mattresses Of Eberhardt &
Co. where all alike are treated to good
goods at human prices.

WHEAT RAISING.

The present prospect for wheat
crop is very encouraging, and only an
immediate severe spell of hot and dry
winds could give the much dreaded
chinch bug a chance to commit his
ravages. This is possible but not very
probable, as the atmosphere is SO well
charged with humidity that We can
reasonably expect more rain I'm short
time, thus bringing the grain to "A
state where chinch bugs can not do
much more harm. The question of
chinch bugs in Kansas seems to Oc-
cupy the minds of editors of eastern
agricultural papers much more than
seems warranted from the history of
their past progress in this State We
sometimes read accounts where 1t is
proved nicely and scientifically that
the chinch bug Is sure to make the
raising of wheat an impOssibility west
of the one hundredth meridian. East
ern readers Of such reports, are very
apt TO thank the Lord that they dis
covered such a terrible state of affairs
before they moved to Kansas, not
knowing that of all the large area
ives; Of the one hundredth meridian,
only very small PERCENTAGE IL settled
The wheat districts i'm Kansas had to
undergo the same ordeal of hardships
and poor crops at home, and severe
criticism from abroad, before the
raising Of trees, the prevention of
devastating prairie fires, and through
cultivation of the soil, brought about
more genial state of the atmosphere
and, consequently, prosperity of the
farmer.
Still the question whether wheat or
corn raising Is more to the interest Of
the farmer In Kansas Is much agi-
tated. There Is not a debating society
or farmers club probably in all Kan
sas but has handled this question
with more or less skill, but with one
ultimate result. that of leaving the
question undecided; for while the
farmer, who is in q situation to con-
centrate his produce into pork or beef,
thus saving freight and obtaining
higher price, is in favor of raising
corn, the majority of his brother
farmers are compelled to sell the
grain before they have time to change
it into q one-legged commodity.
Those of course find wheat, as an
already more concentrated form of
produce, more profitable. In the
long run, however, this style Of farm
ing may bring home to US lesson,
which the farmers in eastern states
have learned to their disadvantage
aud ruin the story of an exhausted
soil and impoverished farmer. We
may run little longer race because
our conditions to rob the soil, are not
quite SO favorable as they were in the
pioneer times Of Iowa, Illinois, or
Ohio, but poverty is sure to overtake
the man who takes from the soil
without returning. This is a subject
Of great importance to US, and l would
say more had I not already encroach-
ed upon space.
Some brother farmers will please
enter upon the subject. who have
more experience. A FARMER.

Nor long ago W. E. Forster gave up

company with the under Secretary
Burke. Lord Cavendish was strolling
In Phoenix Park when q vehicle drove
up containging four men, two of whom
jumped down and attacked the two
unarmed men, stabbing them both
several times in the throat and breast
The victims struggled hard for life but
had to sIIccumb to the superior
strength and bloody weapons Of their
assailants. The murder is a most I'M
fortunate occurrence for the Irish peo-
pie. Ireland had gained great cpnces-
sions from the Government and was
in a fair way TO obtain many more.
Her chiefs had been released, the IN
popular ministers had been with.
drawn and the Gladstone Ministry
was on the point Of doing much more
in her behalf. This whole affair may
result in overwhelming the present
m inistry and restoring 1.-The. Tories. in

gloomy indeed for Ireland. 1t is stated
that Parnell, Dillon and Davitt will

as calamity TO the cause Of Ireland,
and appealing to the people to join in
