PLUMB AND TIE PRINTERS.

In the various Departments and Bureaus
ut Washingto many thousands of persons
from the many states are employed. The
largest number have from. a life service be-
come experts and hold over from one ad-
ministration TO another until age compels q
release. But still there are several thousand
whose places are vacated annually and filed
by new applicants. Kansas has never been
able to get much of representation INSTALL
ed for the reason that her applications have
always been met with the excuse that SO
loyal q state needed no bolstering. OF late
there has been great change in this re-
spect. Our present delegation being pow
er have compelled recognition. Among the
new appointments lately made from this
state was Shat of NJ. w. Reynolds, a veteran
editor, who was installed as n proof reader
in the government printing office. The
printers union consisting Of twelve or fif-
teen hundred printers in that department
demanded that he be discharged by Mr..
Rounds, the government printer, raising q
contemplate din about that gentleman's
ears, whereupon Senator Plumb introduced
4 resolution into the u. S. Senate in the na-
ture of an inquiry as to who is running that
office, its employees or the Government.
The National Printers union then in sess-
ion in st. Louis thereupon takes the matter
up and in set OF resolutions inquire who
Mr. Plumb is that he should dare. Mr..
Plumb hasn't answered them, so We will.
i. b. Plumb is printer. He knows the art
having graduated from IFS every department
from the ink keg to the editorial chair. He
is also a good business man and knows the
ins and outs of the politician and he will
keep Mr.. Reynolds, of Kansas, reading proof
so long as Mr.. X. desires the situation in
spite Of the un ion at st. Louis or Washing

THE CHINESE MUST STAY AWAY.

From the pulpits and church organs we
hear much OF late eondemnatory of the ac-
tion of our government touching the yeXed
Chinese question. Some of our orthodox
orators sneer as though some childish thing
had been done in the interdiction of these
sordid Mongolians; as If the Congress and
President had acted in contravention Of fun
damental law and frampled the very spirit
and genius Of free government under foot.
To all such we commend prayerfnl and
earnest consideration of the sermon preached
by Prof. Swing, at Chicago, last Sunday
week, an extract of which effort We give on
the first page of this weeks EAGLE. With
him, we hold that America is as yet all right
in the main, profting not only by the wis
dom, success and failures of the ages, but Of
fering 10 the world much that is new in pol
itics, much that is good in the sciences, the
arts and in religion, together with 4 fun
measure OF the peaceful victories of the freest
government ever enjoyed by man since his
advent on this earth. The American char
acter is made grand by its independence of
choice, by its unhampered action, and by its
freedom of motive. Errors that hold TO peo-
plies and churches, like locked chains, in the
old world are, in America, thrown off and
true manhood asserts itself We are build
ing up here in America an influence, which,
If not eramped or smothered by the legions
of healhens from China, or the non-progress-
i've of the older civilizations Of Europe, will
overthrow all monarchies, wipe out all titles
and cast and develop the highest possible es-
tate of manhood and womanhood. One OF
the most prominent tendencies Of our pres
ent American civilization is the elevation Of
woman from the ruts that the customs of
older countries would hold her, and the ele- |
walton of woman means happy homes and |
higher morality. The waves that threatened |
10 sweep from the Orient as well as from |
Eastern Europe, with their ancient customs |
and prejudiees, tend TO clog the machinery |
of our progressive ideas and institutions;
tends 10 hold beth women and men down TO
the old conseryatisms and their petty slave
ries. The spirit of monarchy cares for and
eeyates the few. and we want to receive the
possessors Of such spirit no faster than we
can educate them up to our American stand
ard.
Then the question of the interdiction of
Chinese is not 50 much one of brutalized la
bor and cheap competition as il is one affect
ing the future of our country in all that we
hold high and holy.

HORSE THIEVES JAILED.

LAWRENCE, Kan, june S.--Two supposed
horse thieves were landed in Jail here last
evening. They were captured near Ton
ganoxie, Leayeworth county, With a buggy
seat and collar in their possession. which
the owner had traced from this county.
They had in their possession five horses one
a bay mare fifteen hands high, star in fore
head, a scar on the right fore leg, white spot
at the base of the tail, shoes in front. One
bay horse fifteen hands high, joint of left
hip knocked off, shoes in front. One bay
horse colt. three or four years old, with no
appearance Of having been used, dark legs
and black name and tail. One red roam sad
die pony with three white feet, the two
outside teeth run out like tusks, high on
withers. One iron gray mare pony three or
four years old, smooth and well built. They
also had covered farm wagon. They claim
to hail from Wichita, and gave the names OF
John Devenan and Charles Williams. They
answer the description of two notorious
horse thieves, and are held as such. The
men are in the custody of Sheriff Asher, OF
county who will hold them for identifca-

A HOME MAN.

The leading papers in the State of Kansas
and all our prominent men recognize Senator
Sluss as one of the most practical, scholarly,
eloquent and able men within its broad do
main. We make brief extracts from three
very conspicuous papers which will show the
general regard in which he is held by those
capable Of measuring mans worth.
Sedgwick county will send a strong delega-
tion TO the State Convention in Senator Sluss'
behalf, and we have every reason to believe
that Butler, Elk, Greenwood, Chautauqua,
Cowley and Sumner will aid in securing his
nomination. We should be pleased to have
Harvey county contribute its mite in the same
direction, and there are many reasons why
il sheuld do so. In the first place, he is our
State Senator, and the next thing TO home
man-belongs to a county which is our nat
ural ally, and with which we will undoubt-
edly be associated in new congressional
district, and Sedgwick county has always
been our warmest friend. Then, we could
do no better as regards ability and expert
ence. Senator Sluss being the equal Of any
man in the State, with heart and conscience
as pure as woman's, and force of character
10 stand for his honest convictions. And TO
be frank. there is no doubt but that in sup
porting Senator Sluss we would contribute
most to our political influence hereafter.

CAN'T CHOOSE.

The Kingman Citizen with sluss and Peters
is like the girl with two lovers. 1t would be
ever so happy if the 'tother one was only
out of the field. As it is it seems impossible
for it TO choose between them, and so sup
ports both, which won't wash with either
should either be nominated and elected.
As TO its structures upon the EAGLE for not
bringing sass out sooner, we have only to
say that the EAGLE has over and again in
the last five years announced that the peo-
pie Of this county stood ready to support
him for Congress whenever the way should
open. But his friends here at home, who know
him best, know that his fortunes do not de-
pend upon a strained boom an1 clatter.
Henry c. Sluss is not the kind of man that
wears out in a day, but one who will grow
with acquaintance and with the years.

THE EAGLES POSITION.

Touching the the anomalous attitude rela-
lively held by the pulpit and press, SO much
remarked of late, we desire word so far as
the EAGLE is concerned, and only word.
The effort of St John and his adherents 10
make OF a moral question a party one, has
brought on most unseemy war of words
between preachers and editors, between the
pulpits and politicians in many towns Of the
State In which Wichita is no exception. For
one we are OF the opinion that hut 4 single
result is possible. The EAGLE has made ii
rule never TO criticise minister Of the gos-
pei in his place, or to call him TO an account
for sentiments uttered there. Not for fear
of any preacher nor OF the organizations
standing at his back, but because of the con-
yiction that all such criticisms ard discus
sions, however just, tend TO lower, in the
minds of the general public and especially of
the youth, the ministerial calling and its in
fiuonce for good. We believe that it begets
not only a carelesness for vital truths in
which all humanity are interested, and for
things sacred, but the minister himself
comes to be looked upon as in no wise differ
ing from the average professional man who
talks, breaches, prays and lives his life for
the bread and butter there is in it, and be-
cause his money comes easier in that way
than it could in any other. That these are
the direct tendencies and results of all such
press criticisms and after-eontests, we enter
tain no doubt. For these same reasons, in
times past, have we refused our columns for
the purposes esofcontroyersies between preach
ers themselves and between the paper and
preachers. No good ever comes out of them.
One experience of the like some fifteen years
ago cured US. As to the present reprehensi-
bic muddie in which the EAGLE has not been
excepted, as it ought to have been, we say
now and once for all, 10 many urging and
well-wishing friends, that we will have none
Of it. Preachers in their pulpits can say just
what they like about the course of this paper
and round out their unpleasant reprehensive
estimations never so vehemently, so long as
they steer clear Of the EDITORS personal char
acter. Our head is eyerybody's; our heart
and moral character are our own and we will
place the affections of the one where we
please and protect the other if necessary.
Good or bad, these are our governing rea-
sons, and none need expect the EAGLE TO
become party in fight for which it is no
wise responsible, or TO make of it any thing
but country paper, a secular journal of
pronounced Republican convictions, howey-
er much its editor may personally admire the
apostles of ''peace on earth and good will TO
man. who refuse TO become or to be made po-
litical tools OF, or however much he may per-
sonally deprecate the carrying Of politics or
other purely worldly matters into what
should be the sacred desk in the midst of the
house appointed only for spiritual commun-
ings snd the worship of the one God, the
Father Of all, be we Baptists, Presbyterians
OF Methodists; Republicans, Democrats or
Greenbackers, anti-Prohibitionists, Prohiti-
tionists or simply Temperance

The feeling is fast gaining ground through
out the state that we have too many political
judges in Kansas. This feeling IL not the
outgrowth Of day, but the evil has grown
with the growth Of the state, until II has be-
come an open secret that our entire judc-
iary is nothing more or less than political
org rgsnization, having for its object the pro-
motion OF its members, and in furtherance
of which the interests of justice are SUBJ
yerted, and decisions are peddled out with

or KANSAS GROWTH.

Senator Piumb's speeches and resolutions
touching 10 sling, drinking and card-playing
among the officers Of the American army,
and the unwarranted leaves Of absence for
good time under full pay, and his protest
against such n number OF shoulder straps
continually in and about Washington, has
brought on bitter feeling upon the part OF
the blue coated gentlemen who have been
educated at Uncle Sans expense, and who
want TO put in all their time under full pay at
places of pleasure and fashionable resort.
There is fine hall in Washington called
Farno Hall, or some such name, which is run
almost nightly and exclusively by the officers
of the army and navy stopping in Washing
ton upon one prctense or another. One of
their journals carricatures Mr.. Plumb as an
enormous oyegrown Kansas pumpkin.
The truth is, Mr.. Plumb knows, as do all
public men, that the abuses complained Of
are only too true, and we predict that within
the next few years he will, by his efforts in
the direction of dccency and right, complete
ly renovate the whole military establishment
in spite of the boasted influence Of these
Quasi-ari stocrats.

MITCHELL'S MONUMENT.

We are in receipt of circular soliciting
subscriptions for a monument TO be erected
TO the memory 70 Rev. ID. =. Mitchell one of
the pioneer ministers Of Kansas, truly able
and good man. He was suspended from the
Methodist Conference for dabling in politics.
The disgrace of suspension or the want of
confidence on the part of his brothers seems
10 have broken him down and he died be-
fore the year was up. He was man of very
large sympathies, and in an editorial short
time after his suspension he said that 1t was
the saddest blow OF his life and well nigh
broke his heart, and we guess it did. If he
had lived until this time he would have
found many ministers in the political Held,
some of whom we doubt not voted his own
condemnation. We knew Mitchell in Kan
sas In times that tried the stun men were
made Of and he was pillar. Any contibu-
tions from ten cents up to ten dollars will be
received at this Office and forwarded to the
committee having the matter in charge.

POLITICAL JUDGES.

1t is a curious commentary upon the ju-
dietary of the State, that the moment judge
becomes a candidate for Congress or some
other office that he at once claims, and it is
feared. too often with good reason, the solid
support Of his entire district, and nine cases
Mt OF ten he is not mistaken. He may be
a good judge, but it's not because he is, that
his district supports him for Congress. 1t is
because he has gathered around him a
coteric OF politicians at every county seat
who. because Of favors shown, or services
to be rendered on the one hand, or because
Of the ambition Of most lawyers who prac-
tice in his court, to su cceed him on the other
he is enabled through them to solidify each
county in his district. This is what we COM
plain of. A judge who under ordinary cir
cumstances, receives the solid support of
his district in convention, is not flt for Con-
gress nor clean enough to wear the Judicial
ermine.- Winfield Courdnt.

ALTON AMULETS.

To tie Edator Of tie Eagle:
l am afraid your reporter from Ruby has
been misinformed about some things. / no.
ticed in your issue two weeks ago, that there
was ''face lickiin" at Mr.. Nessly's. He
is mistaken. There was no such thing.
There was birthday party TO celebrate Will
liam Nessly's eighteenth year. They had
plenty Of music and any amount OF supper,
and fun till = o'clock in the morning when
all the company to the number of twenty de-
parted.
We are having some splendid weather just
at this time, but there is no telling how long
it will last.
Wheat is the best we have had for years.
Corn not so good as it has been; it was too
wet for it to come up rs il should.
Peaches will be scarce this year in this part
of the country.
The Alton library is in prosperous con-
dition. having 100 good books.
We understand MIR. Sawn Goodrich is hav-
ing spell Of sickness. We hope he will be
all right again shortly.
Will Manning has some wild ponies.
MIR. ferguson has unisheu sheafinS his
sheep. He has a splendid lot of wool, and
over 1000 head OF sheep and lambs.
Dances seem to be on the increase, in spite
of hard work and short nights.
Every one anticipates heaps Of fun on the
Fourth of July.
Headers are not so much in vogue last
year, and self-binders are more.
Every one has great hopes for the future,
and their hopes will be realized ii bad storms
keep away.
If nothing happens to the corn that is
planted think the day of I5-cent corn will
come again.
Many of the young folks propose to attend
the Teachers Institute. 1t will be a good
thing even if they do not intend TO teach.
The Star school will soon close 4 prosper
Gus term.
We understand that several farms have
been sold at good prices.
Everybody is waiting for the 30th of June
to come, and for the stretching Of Guiteau's
neck II would be done suddenly il he was
in this neighborhood. More anon.

CAPTURED.

band Of robbers, upon whom one would
think had fallen the mantle of the murderer
Jesse James, was not Missouri so full OF such
outlaws, robbed bank in broad day light
last week. After the deed they fed on fast
horses for the Charlton river bottoms, in the
thickets of which they kept their rendezvous.
An cflicer named McArtber possessing more
than the usual amount OF Missouri pluck
with posse of some half dozen, never
abandoned tie trail of the robbers until they
had cornered them in log hut, when they
were given the choice OF death or surrender.
They surrendered. Subsequently one OF
them told where the money was hidden, and
it was all recovered. Marshal Macarthur
and posse received congratulatory messages
from Gov. Crittenden and Sheriff Timber
lake. of Clay county.
