well proven its efficacy in forty years fight

The BALTIMORE & ONO RELIEF AS
ISOLATION has grown into remarkable
enterprise that is accomplishing great
good to the employees of the company who
are embraced in its membership. In a
lecture at the Johns Hopkins University,
Baltimore, on Friday night last, DR..
Richard F. Ely read paper which showed
the benefits derived from the association
and the noble work it is accomplishing,
He said this association is now doing
more perhaps than any other one agency
to justify the faith of those who believe
that the present bans of economic life are
broad and strong enough for far better
social structure than the world has yet
seen. 1t is the only great institution in
the United States which has grasped in a
large spirit the problem of labor, and has
set about its complete solution in reason
able manner. 1t is worthy the careful
study of the political economist.
After describing the details of their
various features, and mentioning that
1874 900 benefits had been paid between
1850 and September 80, 1884. DR.. Ely pro-
ceeded to show that it was necessary to
compare the operations Of the relief asso.
citation with the ideal of the wages system
in order to obtain an adequate idea of what
has been accomplished, and took as basis
of comparison Prof. Brentano's statement
of the kinds of insurance required by
labor. There are six : Insurance to defrav
the expenses of education of children in
case Of the death of the provider, to de-
fray expenses of support during old age,
to pay the cost Of burial, to provide for
period OF, inability to labor on account of
accident or injury, on account of illness,
and on account of enforced idleness due to
the lack of demand for labor. In one wav
or another the Baltimore and Ohio Relief
Association provides for nearly all these
contingencies, and its work is truly of
epoch making Importance. In reply to
the criticism that this plan made the
laborers dependent, DR.. Ely stated that in
his opinion the company never before
showed so much consideration in the man.
agement of its employees, and be pointed
out that they participated actively in the
| administration of the association.

TWO SIDES TO IT.

A shrewd real estate operator who ha
made fortune in the enhancement of realty
values in and around Wichita, said yesterday
to representative Of this paper that had it,
editor acted upon bis own faith snd prophe-
sizes touching the final outcome OF this city
and valley by putting his money into lot.
and lands that to-day said editor would have
been worth from one to three hundred thou.
sand dollars. That's one side, but that edi-
tor begs leave to state another side. Mr..
real estate operator should remember that
he possibly would have not hsd the same op-
portunity 10 feather his own nest had not
the editor, whose greenness he was CRITICS.
ing, employed all his money and all his tai
ents in strengthening a paper which has
done hardly anything for thirteen or four
teen years but work 10 build up Wichita
and Wichita property. 1t would not,
in other words, have done for all
of us to have gone into real es-
tate; somebody had to do the work which
has resulted in giving that real estate value.
And further, there is no certainty that the
city council would not have taken our land
for streets sd they found any use for
streets-which maybe they would not, had
not the EAGLE lived TO fly, TO scream and to
be heard.

ON TO THE MISSISSIPPI.

Mr.. S. A. Chapman, of Burden, Cowley
county, who is one of the Oldest business
men of that town, and who was in this city
yesterday purchasing stock of dry goods,
made US call. The people of Burden he
informs US are thoroughly aroused with ref
erence to the projection of the Wichita & Ar
kansas Valley R R, Burden being on the
direct line, almost, between Douglas and the
head waters of the Cans, the route which it is
thought the road will take. Burden stands
ready and anxious to extend any aid in their
power. That place voted thirty-fve thous-
sand dollars bonds to the Beaumont branch
of the Frisco, which line was afterwards
changed. As to the country lying between
Douglas and Burden, Mr.. Chapman says
there are no obstacles of grade or other
wise which would prevent the rapid and
cheap construction Of the road. In fact, the
entire distance between Wichita and the
Territory, over the line indicated and with
which he is well acquainted, he knows o
but one plscs where difficulty would likely
be encountered, and that would be in get
ting from one divide to the other in cross
ing Grouse creek.
Burden is town of about fifteen hundred
people, growing and prosperous with their
banks. good hotels, and several fine mercan-
tile establishments. and the people are snx-
ious for line connecting them with Wich-
its and her lines of railway. The finest
stone vet discovered in the state is found at
Burden, quantities of which are shipped to
Kansas City, and even Winfield and Wei
lington with sll their abundance of stone 60
to Burden for q finer quality. Mr.. c. says
he is daily reader of the EAGLE, its tele-
graphic and market reports and that that
fine prosperous country only awaits rail-
road to become big patron of this city's
wholesale houses. To this point also are
they looking for future market

TROOPS EN- ROUTE TO FORT LEAvEN
WORTH.

Yesterday the command of Col. Geo. B.
Sanford, consisting of four troops. NJ 9th,
Capt. Rafferty, LIST, Capt. Carr L 4th,
Capt. Whit b Sd, Capt. johnson. These
troops comprise the Fort Leavenworth
school of instruction battalion, and has been
out two months on the territorial campaign
and were guarding 100 miles of the Kansas
border, from Caldwell west TO the Simerom.
1t is fine body Of men and well equipped,
and its march through the main street Of
Wichita was Of the most orderly kind.
Col. Sanford informed a reporter that the
Indian county is quiet and orderly and no
fears of trouble entertained. That the
cattle men are moving out in conformity TO
the presidents order, majority going to
the Cherokee strip, while quite body are
being shipped from New Kiowa. The colo
mel speaks in glowing terms Of the country
and the rapid Improvements within the
western Kansas counties through which bis
command passed. The officers speak well
of the EAGLE, which they found
their earliest medium of news
while on the frontier and say they
partially owe their campaign TO its early
sounding the alarm, being its guardian
angel from its towering perch o'erlooking
and guarding happy homes along the Dor
der of the frontier.
The command is camped at Chisholm
creek and this morning the call of boots and
saddle will send them on their march
towards Fl. Leavenworth where they expect
to be in about ten days, via. Emporis.
which they will reach in four to five days.

While everybody is for il and everybody
consents that it is q good thing. yet we some
times fear that the importance Of an inde-
pendent connection with the Omaha system
OF railroads is not exactly and fully appre-
ciated. Such road for Wichita has
three-fold significance or even q four-fold
one, each Of which is very important First
there is the widening OF the field of our local
trade; second, the facilities and advantages
of new trunk line; third, the direct and in
dependent competition which It would give
us between the St Louis and Chicago
markets; and, fourth, the competition for the
products of this section IS between the
markets of the north and the markets of the
markets of the south over the proposed out

ent connection with Chicago, as against all
the consultations and competitions repre-:
sented by st. Louis and Kansas City and

Kansas City and St Louis lines of railways.
Not pound of freight nor passenger can
be transferred from Wichita to Chicago or

self-possessed bearing, and the attendance
at the house yesterday might be called O

entire innocence, She did not attend the
funeral at the church, as her presence might
have given rise to great excitement. The
coroner's jury met again this afternoon and
took the testimony Of DR.. L. d. Jacobs, the
physician who attended Mr.. Walkup. II
conceded with previous testimony, but de-
veloped nothing new or startling. The
analysis of DR.. Gardner of the stomach and
other parts of Mr.. Wslkup's body did not
determine the presence of arsenic or other
poison, and he has taken the parts to Kansas
City for more complete and exhaustive
analysis. The coroner's jury, after hearing
