J. A. Haskell of Newton, was giving his
opinion to an interested crowd in the parlor
of tine fremont hotel last night, as to what
President Clevelsnd would do in regard to
the appointment of postmasters in general
and the Wichita postmaster in particular.
He said Cleveland would eventually down
all of them and put Democrats in their
places, but he thought the old man would
go Slow In about six months the postmas-
ter at Wichita would be requested to walk
"down and out" He thought the mail
agents would not be removed. In town
the size of Wichita he thought several DEM
ocrats might be found capable of running a
postofice but when it came to running a
postal car, they could not do it because they
had never got so far along in gografy to tell
which route letter should be sent and the
Mahdi at Washington well knew that fact
A very pleasant party was held at the
residence of Mr.. A. o. Lowell, on Wichita
street last night, which WAS attended BY q
large number OF friends and invited guests

The. Beacon outfit, all impatient of delay,
or fearing that trouble might be experienced
under the tenure of office act, makes fool
growl at the wav the postoftice is con ducted

it expressed the hope that the next admins
tration might afford better facilities for an
Office that has continually outgrown its BIZ
enuial adjustments. We were honest in our
expression, and we sincerely hope that who
ever may be postmaster, better facilities will
be afforded. As TO the way the postotiiee rs

1t is a matter of surprise to everybody
that every train on the Santa Fe, no matter
which direction it goes, is full to overflow
ing. So many are going to New Orleans
and Washington from this city that the ex-
ira coach dropped by the south bound train
in this city is found to be insufficient to ac-
commodate the passengers. The piles of
freight that reach this city over that and the
Frisco is astonishing. The shipments of
stock ard grain from this city and from
points south and along the Wichita x
Western is very large just now and business
is booming along the whole line. New
rails. new ties and new balssting are being
put in wherever required, and the road is al
ways kept in the best Of order. An eastern
railroad man, in conversation with an EAGLE
reporter yesterday, declared that, notwith-
standing he had heard much about the
Santa Fe, he was not prepared to find road
so thorough equipped and managed in
Kansas. The track, he said, was good
enough to run over al the rate Of sixty miles
an hour.

ATTEMPT TO BREAK JAIL.
Special Dispatch to the Daily Eagle
WINFIELD, Kan, Feb. 25.-Chas. Lewis,
who is held here on the charge of blowing
open the safe in Smith s. York's store, at
tempted to break Jail last evening, and came
very near being successful. The other pris-
oners, who were not locked in their cells at
the time, would have escaped also had the
attempt been made few minutes earlier.
Lewis was the only one who succeeded in
getting out, and he was recaptured by the
deputy sheriff, Frank Finch, just outside of
the Jail yard. 1t is the custom to lock the
prisoners in their cells at nine o'clock, and
then Lewis was discovered to be missing.
He had tore up the flooring in the west room,
where the wood had become rotten, and then
dug from under the foundation to the out
side of the Jail. The means used for dig
ging out was a two-inch auger, which must
have been supplied from the outside.

Ed. REVIEW: Harvest is upon us
and in almost every direction one can
hear the sound of the harv esters. The
crops are much better than any one
expected, and the cry now is, what
Will we do with our grain? ;. The late
rains have made thousands of bushels
of grain and tons OF hay SO we have no
fears of famine this year. The
weather las been extremely warm In
some parts of our valley for. the last
three weeks and the result is that
scores Of our citizens are going to the
Soda Springs on Butte creek. Since the
fourth it IS estimated that at least
ninty persons have gone to the springs
for their health. ~. There has been
and still is great deal Of sickness in
the valley and unless we have change
in the weather there will be great
deal more But in spite of sickness
and warm weather Eagle Point still
continues to improve, Grossman
l. Pardin are building an addition to
their place Of business where they ex-
pect to have photograph gallery in
the upper story and furniture
store in the lower story. i
w. w. Parker has about completed
his neat residence and David Hendry
has put nice fence around his prem
ices. The contractors for building
the bridge across Rogue river are put
ting the material on the ground for its
constru ction and the people begin to
look forward to the time when they
can go from one part of the valley to
another without paying the ptice of
q days work for the use cf a boat to
cross the river; but one bridg is not en-
ough, but we will have to wait until
we can elect men as oar officers Of board
and liberal views that will uot be in
fiuenced by party cliques or local in.
terests. There seems to be asdisposition
on the part of the present board to use
their influence in favor of certain local
ties, to the detriment of the rest of the
county. But such is life. UNo.
