WHAT THE ROCK ISLAND MEANS

st Joseph Herald.
The Rock Island road is not coming
10 ST. Joseph for the local freight
business: neither is the road aiming to
connect her with Kansas City or
Omaha by an additional line of steel.
These two points arc too obvious to
be argued. What then are its inten-
tion>I
Ii is well known that the bulk of
The western traffic out of Chicago is
carried by this line: but on reaching
Omaha il must yield its vast traffic TO
the Union Pacific To extend a line
into the southwest from Omaha is too
extensive and dangerous in poiut of
competition Besides il has al
ready good southwestern branch
bnilt to the Missouri river. To project
a western liue from Kansas CITY would
bring into competition with the Santa
Fe and other southwestern roads
The only important point'on the Mis-
souri, river still open 10 enterprise Of
this kind is ST. Joseph. Now, the
Rock Island is resolved not only to
save as much as possible OF her west
bound traffic. but TO connect Chicago
with the cattle ranges of southern Col
orado: and TO do this she is compelled
to secure permanent footing on the
Missouri river, such as Omaha is 10
the Union Pacific and Kansas City 10
other roads. The point determined
on. very naturally, is ST. Joseph, for
with the completion of the section now
building into this city direc; line Is
biished TO Chicago. aud the rosd
is prepared TO launch out in westerly
direction either by obtaining control
of the 81. Joseph and Western-in
that event probably giving US direct
line to Denver-or by new line

ARKANSAS CITY.

ARKANSAS CITY, Kan, Nov. ., 80.
To the Editor of the Eagle.
The city council met to-day and
condemned the right Of way through
the city for the Kansas City & South
western railroad The route as now
established, extends through the west
ern part of the town. and crosses the
Arkansas river Il short distance below
the dam. and mile west Of the bust
ness portion of the city. The eXten-
sion 10 Gencda Springs, South Haven,
and Caldwell, will be made from this
point. This arrangement is satisfacto-
~ 10 the town above named, while il
will possess incalcuablc advantages ia
Arkansas City, another route has been
under consideration for the extension
oi the main line directly west from 4
point four or five miles north of here,
giving this place a sprOut oil the main
line. This would have given q shorter
route u Caldwell by mile or two,
but il would have ncccssiia'ed the
building Of two bridges across the
Arkansas, and the new arrangement
is more satisfactory. This gives a
new impetus 10 the big boom that
Arkansas City has been having for
the past year.

BUILDING OF KANSAS TOWNS.

The future of Kansas ia not q mat
ter of conjecture. The past growth of
the state is an indication of what may
he expected in the years to come. This
confidence is not based upon theory
or q desire IL attract settlers by dis
play of atmospheric advertising, but
upon the substantial elements of
wealth produced within the state. We
are exporting more Of value rai-ed in
the state than we are bringing into the
state. The real wealth of Kansas is
founded, not upon its rare climate
nor lis extraordinary growth in the
past, but upon the products of its
rich soil, IFS grain, fruit and live
stock, backed by the intelligence Of
people that has built school
house and church in every valley and
Jn every hill, and had the courage 10
place in her constitution her condcm-
nation of the greatest curse of the age
In such n state, witt such people,
there viii be developed every resource
lying dormant in the coal fields, in her
great deposits of lead. and above and
beyond and greater than these the al
most ineXhaus'ible fertility of her soil.
Ii remains only for communities TO
indiciously make he most of their re-
sources, 10 secure such connections
with eastern, western and particularly
southern markets as will give them
tina advantage of buying and selling TO
the best advantage.
In the new era of Kansas, able to
stand alone, with new trade centers
rapidly developing with new lines of
transportation opening up better OPP
poriuHitics 10 reach markets, twenty
cciIt corn aud fifty cent wheat should
be numbered among the things OF The
past. The people of Kansas appreci-
ate their geographical location and
without being DESTROYS of Il railroad
building boom that may collapse or
give lines where there is no trade TO
warrant such improvements. the peo-
pie are clearly determined TO
reach eastern markets without be-
ing required TO pay tribute TO the
Kansas City pools, which extend be-
yond railroads, 10 the elevators aud
stock wards
The Capital is Il Kansas paper and
proposes To make its fight hot alone
tor Topeka, but for every Kansas
town, and 'or the things that protect
Kansas trade and the products of the
state.
In this connection more important
will come before the next legislature
than the legislation which will be
asked providing tor the inspection of
Kansas grain and stock within the
borders of the state. Ii has been the
boast of Kansas City that no great
city could be bnilt in Kansas,
that no railroad could be success
fully built unless their cargoes of Kan
sas grain and stock passed through
that city paving tribute II Missouri.
The great windy wonder at the mouth
of The Kansas river has grown and
prospeTcd upon Kansas trade without
let or hindrance. Among the shippers
of grain and stock there is most en-
phatic demand for protection which
will find response in the next legis-
lature.
The building up of Kansas trade
aud the protection of the pro-
ducers Of Kansas wealth should be the
keynote in every live city in the state.

Farmers Help.

Its now recognized fact tina. the
successful cuitivstiofs Of thc soil n both
a science and an art. A high degree Of
scientific knowledge is not only requisite
to determine the character Of tho crops
that shall DO raised on different quail
ties Of land and to preserve the strength
and fertility Of the soil, but great skill
is demanded in the art of planting cul-
tivating and securing the crops. Igno-
rant, unskilled labor is as Improbable
in farming as it is in the mechanical in
dustries The demand Of skilled farm
help is as great in some other sections
Of the country as it is in the Southern
States: Experience has demonstrated
that skilled farm help Is not to be found
among the majority Of immigrants who
come to this country. The working
classes Of foreigners, unless they belong
to some Of the mechanical industries,
have no aptitude for any special pursuit.
For digging on the railroad, in the ditch
or canal, or for street labor, where only
physical strength and endurance are
requisite, they do very well; but when
il comes to working on the farm they
are incapable Of any intelligent assist
ance. They first must learn by expert
snce, and tho details Of farm labor are
not to be acquired in single year. Yet
this classes OF laborers. Notwithstanding,
expect to receive the wages that are
paid to experienced farm hands. What
is wanted everywhere in this country
are practical farmers. And there is no
reason why there should be scarcity OF
this class, any moro than that there
should be lack of workmen in any
mechanical branch. It has already been
shown in these columns that the remu.
neration Of this branch Of labor is cquit-
able as compared with other industries.
The inducements arc in every way us
desirable. II farmers sons themselves
would only understand this, tho lack of
skilled labor for the farm would in some
