MIR, Webster, in April 1916 made
some scathing remarks in the senate
on II resolution of the house, calling
for IN account of his disbursements Of
the secret service fund. This fund.
he explained, could not be expended
by direction of the president. and he
asserted in conclusion that all declara-
tons, averments, statements, or insin-
uations made anywhere, or by any,
body, which imputed pcrvision, mis-
application, or waste Of the public
funds, as committed or made by him
while secretary of state, were utterly
groundlcss and false. Whoever charged
HIM with having misapplicd the public
fund whllein in the state department had
either seen the papers or had, in some
other way, obtained knowledge upon
the subject, or he had not. If he had
seen no papers, or had no knowledge,
then his imputations were purely
wanton and slanderous. If he had
seen the papers, or had any knowledge,
then he would state what he knew--if
he knew anything-which would sus-
tain his charge. Silence, under such
circumstances, was conclusive that he
knew nothing, because he was under
no obligation of secrecy, and in alb
Sencc of all other proof he would of
course, tell all he knew, if he knew
anything which would in the slightest
degree bear him out. The charge,
therefore, was made in utter ignorance
of any facts TO support it, or else with
a knowledge that the facts which did
exist would, if made known, entirely
disprove ii. AS to the source of this
miserable vituperation, he had moth
ing to say. He was afraid he should
be thought to have paid too much at
tention TO it already. Sir said Mr.
81 have the author of these
SANDERS where he is; | leave him in
The worst company | know of in the
world-I leave him with himself"
Mr.. Jarnagin then desired to withdraw
his resolution, which was not allowed.
and the resolution was rejected by the
large vote Of A to 1.-Mr, Turner, of
Tennessee, being the one. Ben Perley

Kansas Wheat I'm 1884,

II is too early to count our bushels,
but there is no harm in guessing upon
the facts already known. The acreage
in wheat this year is estimated at two
million. At the rate of Is bushels to
the acre, the aggregate yield would be
thirty million bushels, about the same
as we had last year. If the average
yield should reach the figures of 1882,
or a little over % bushels per acre, the
total yield would reach upwards of
forty-six million bushels. Putting il
ut 20 bushels the average, we will have
forty million bushels, that would be
enough to supply all the people in
Kansas and of seven other states of the
same population, allowing five bushels,
the usual allowance, to every person
old and young.
This is grand showing for so young
n state. Let us see about the move
mcnt of 50 large crop. Four hun
dred bushels is a large load for one
freight car. At that rate, it would re-
quirc one hundred thousand cars to
haul our wheat crop. Allowing twenty
ears TO the train, we should have five
thousand trains, and giving to each
train ope-half mile on the track, the
procession would be twenty-five hun.
dred miles long. Putting the cars to-
gether in solid train, and move them
by an overshot water wheel, driven by
Niagara, and we would have (thirty
feet to the car) five hundred and sixty
eight miles of solid train, or nearly
half way from Topeka to New York
city.
Forty million bushels of wheat at Is
cents per bushel would amount to thir-
ty million dollars. That, at 1926, 600
per mile would build 1900 miles Of
railroad; at S2j per acre, it would pay
for 10000 one hundred-acrc farms.
1t would be thirty dollars apiece for
one million persons-a little less than
the population Of Kansas. 1t would
pay for ten school houses at $1,000
apiece, one court house at so, 900, five
churches at $1,000 each, and twenty
bridges at $500 apiece in every one of
the 81 organized counties of the state;
and there would be money enough left
to buy for each of the two hundred
thousand families in the state, one
sewing machine at $50, one Jersey COW
at $50, and one parlor organ at $50
