corn seemed to be in tolerably fair

Edgar A. Dorsey's Democracy.

The Democrats nominated 4. A. Dorsey
Mt Wichita. Tuesday, for State Senator.
Dorsey has been holding Office by the aid OF
the Republican votes for the past eight years.
Caldwell Journal.
Yes, but he will hold no more Offices by
the aid of the Republican votes. Even if he
had heretofore been a Republican only for
the sake of Office, which now seems probable,
ordinary decency and that sense of gratitude
which animates even the heart of n tramp
for free dinner, should have deferred him
from turning and trampling upon what his
former friends hold dear-from turning and
shifting the hands which had so often been
unselfishly outstretched to help him. The
political history Of all Kansas does not furn-
ish II parallel to Dorsey's ingratitude. Even
st. John and W. p. Campbell were let down
and out before they joined the enemy.

Worse than a Mistake.

Col. G. X. Holiday has not yet made up
em ,rs to accept place on the ticket with
Click, and it is well. He had better never
make up his mind to do SO. In the first
place, there is not ghost of a chance of the
ticket ever being elected, and in the second
place, the Union Pacific and Santa Fe rail-
roads cannot afford to have prominent
railroad owner and director placed in a po-
sition where he would be called upon to
name the railroad committee of the state
senate, and also where he would have a lead
ing voice in the assessment of railroads.
The nomination of Holiday was the weakest
political move ever made in the state, if il
wasn't something worse than mistake.

1857. Since 1859, he has been editor and
proprietor Of the News until a few days

BALM OF olLEAD.
FRANCIS CAREY WEIGHT.

I have heard of a "Balm of Gilead'-
Is't plant Of some mythical ground!
Is its home in:sbut gardens Of Eden?
Or, wherever mankind is found!
Reports of its magical virtue
Ring down immemorial time;
IT'S said that the turbulent spirit
Is Gained BY its touch sublime.
Names has this Invaluable balsam:
We call it sereneness of soul;
Il pours in our lives its sweet healing,
As the spirit speeds on to its goal.
Ask Socrates, Emerson, Plato
These seers of internal truths;
Ask Sweedenborg, Buddha or Jesus:
as the spirit left longing it sonthss''
Fame cannot win us this gladness;
Twill never be wooed by bright gold;
Learning is not the conductor
Transmitting US riches untold.
II lives where the soul-soil is fertile;
Wen report the condition of growth.
Conditions are here Just as elsewhere
Not only in one but in both):
Scan not the sky of thy future
With telescope (thirty-inch lens):
Thy trouble which now is as star-dust
The size of the moon transcends.
Chain thy mind to thine own living present;
Think not of the past cloudy skies.
Forgetting the past, in the future
press towards the mark for the prize"
That is the motto called Pauline
What trials, W hat hardships Paul's lot!
OF peace more than half of his words were;
OF his troubles, these things move me
not"
Look for the good all around thee,
Not evil; for It's good that gives joy:
There is not in the richest of gold mines
That metal quite free from alloy.
As he gold, so thou goodness search ever;
As he leaves the base mixture, do thou
But I turn to the two prime co nditions:
There's no balm without which l can
Mark not for thy future thy pathway;
The lamp of thy soul shines not far;
Keep thy foot where its rays now fall
brightest,
These no wells of the future debar.
Drop out from they life all self-seeking-
IT'S NORWOOD, tits canker, soul-rust;
Teach thy soul to observe this position,
will do what know to be just.
Some say It's gift from sour Father"
IT'S native, like Joy in a dream,
Say Others. Not knowing venture;
Perhaps from the Deep Supreme.
Deeper than fathomless oceans;
Wider than pole from pole;
Longer than noon-tide sunbeams
Is this truth of the wondrous soul.
True, constant, and present its power
The spirit to sooth and uphold:
Tis the only Philosophers Touchstone
Transmitting base metals to gold.

INDIGNANT.

Fifty prominent Republicans of Sedgwick
county, at least, have intimated to us within
the week that had they been editor of the
EAGLE they would not only not have ex-
pressed any regret over the apostacy Of
Edgar A. Dorsey, but fayed him alive.
While political per6dy and faithlessness are
exceedingly .aggravating to men who never
dream of wayering, yet there may be ex-
tenuating circumstances, surroundings, and
pressures that younger men may find diff
cult TO Withstand. We felt that his over
whclming defeat in November, which we
saw at once was bound to follow, would be
punishment enough. In fact We don't be-
licvc that Ed. Dorsey fully understood or
comprehended Just how ungenercusly he,
in that act, was treating the men who had
so long stood by him, and which even the
average mossback Democrat could not, and
has not figured out. In that spirit, and from
that standpoint we wrote, wrote as we would
have written of any one whom We had
trusted and honored, but who had betrayed
us, wrote as We would have Of br other
who had made grcvious mistake.

RESUBMISsION.

TnE WICHITA EAGLE, Topeka Common
wealth and Leavenworth Times are publish
ing articles favoring resubmtssion. These
papers have all the time opposed prohibi-
ton and have done all in their power to
nulify the law. We have no respect for
their expressions on this subject. What is
the use Of talking about this question in this
whining way. Everyone knows that when
ever there is a majority in favor of resubmis-
sion the question will be submitted to the
people. Only a short time ago eight thous-
and majority favored prohibition and We
believed much larger majority favors it
to-day. In free Kansas the people generally
rule. About the only exception to this rule
is the saloon element frequently rule when
greatly in the minority. Whenever the
people Of Kansas want the question resub-
mitted it will be done, and until then it
should not be done.-Harper Times.
Well, now, is it then so much harder to be
fair than unfair?

DEMOCRATIC CUMPTION.

1t is not little instructive to hear thu
average Sedgwick county Democrat discuss
the personel of the ticket fixed up this year
by their bosses. A goodly number of the
rank and file seem unable to determine the
status Of the party and are perplexed in
making the Democratic party and its Repub-
lican candidates hitch exactly. Speaking
of Ed. Dorsey as Democratic nominee
an intelligent Democrat expressed it in this
way: "If Cleveland and Hendricks are moi
good enough for Dorsey, then Dorsey is not
good enough for me, and for one shall moi
vote for him.
Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1884-1886, 1884-08-31
Ex-SOLDIER REPUBLICANS.

So far as we have been able to learn there
is not, in Sedgewick county, single ex-
soldier Republican who will vote for the
gallant Col. John Martin, that will also vote
for Ed. Dorsey. Jolly Bill Hays who re-
grets probably, as mnch as anybody Dor
sey's strange and unaccountable course,
says he don't know Of as many as three lib
eral Republicans even, who will vote for
Dorsey. Dan Boone, that out and out
square up and down Republican from the
north end says it looks like Dorsey had lost
all the friends he ever had.
Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1884-1886, 1884-08-31

If il be true that Jacob Stotler is going
to change his residence, Emporia will lose
one Of lis best friends.-Capital.
A thousand times better friend and who
has done thousand times more TO make
Emporia what she is to-day than the men
who have dogged him, or than the mon who
permitted him to 60 rather than sustain for
n brief time he who had sustained them for
TWENTY-FIVE wears.
Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1884-1886, 1884-08-31

After their managers had so successfully
captured Ed. Dorsey, We are sorry that the
rank and file should show so much feeling.
If the Democrats can't make up their minds
TO swallow Dorsey after he had consented to
swallow them the case is bad enough, for we
don't know of square out Republican in
the county who would now touch Dorsey
with a ten foot pole.
Wichita daily eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1884-1886, 1884-08-31

Thepolitical writings of the Wichita EAGLE
man are "a perpetual river of paradise and
We are not surprised that his articles are SO
often quoted. Like his big corn stories,
they furnish basis for speculation that sets
ones bead TO aching before the first ten lines
